God Alone are Jake O’Driscoll (guitar, vocals), Cian Mullane (bass, vocals), Jack O’Hanlon (drums), Dylan Kelly (synths) and Seán Thompson (guitar). They formed in 2016 in Cork.
The five musicians behind GOD ALONE are quite literally students of their craft; ETC - their second full length album - was recorded at MTU Cork School of Music which they all attend. The origins of the band lie in a heavier, post-metal sound, but the intervening years and an influx of new and stimulating influences has seen them broaden their palette, expand their horizons and hone a distinctive sound.
The genre-bending approach traverses through math-rock, dance, avant-garde, post-punk and more on its way to its final destination. Citing the Talking Heads as a big influence, GOD ALONE embrace absurdism at every turn - in particular the absurdity of nothingness; the art of existing without meaning or context. Abstract lyrics are influenced by French dadaist poets as they seek to make heavy ideas into fun, danceable vignettes.
In October 2025 God Alone released their third studio album - "The Beep Test".
