1. Grid - Grid is an English group/production group for electronic music, that consists of Richard Norris and David Ball (mostly Dave Ball as a solo artist and formerly of Soft Cell).
Their 1994 single “Swamp Thing”, which featured elaborate banjo lines (played by Roger Dinsdale) over house beats was widely popular in the UK and Australia, reaching number forty-four on the 1994 Triple J Hottest 100. Grid’s 1994 album Evolver, which contained the “Swamp Thing” single, reached number fourteen in the UK charts. “Swamp Thing” was also released in 1995 on Triple J’s Hottest 100 Volume 2 compilation. Other songs by Grid include Texas Cowboys, Rollercoaster and Flotation.
After splitting up to pursue individual music interests in 1996, the duo re-formed in 2003. By 2006 the pair were reportedly to have been recording new studio tracks. In early 2006 the band began touring under the name GDM with female singer Misty Woods.
Dave Ball reunited with Marc Almond for a new Soft Cell album and tour in 2002-3.
Richard Norris is currently working with Erol Alkan under the moniker Beyond the Wizard’s Sleeve, under which they released an album of acid rock re-edits called “Spring” in the summer of 2006.
The band released a new album in 2008 called Doppelgänger and performed some live shows

3. Grid - A grindcoreband from Umeå, North Sweden.
4. GRID - Dark Jazz group
With an approach based in free jazz, GRID takes the plunge into darker, heavier, and more psychedelic realms of improvised music. The new trio, featuring Matt Nelson (Battle Trance) on saxophone, Tim Dahl (Child Abuse) on bass, and Nick Podgurski (New Firmament;Feast of the Epiphany) on drums, harnesses the clamorous spirit of free jazz while venturing beyond its acoustic borders through the implementation of electronic processing and dirge-like tempos akin to Doom and Sludge. Noisey calls GRID “a three-way chat. It’s a conversation between musicians with differing musical opinions, but their debut album has become a shared dialogue that is as fluid as it is improvised”.
Insatiable
Grid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Release - Once you've got what you need
Feed - Your soul with poison
Sleep - Rest and start over
You will never be what you say
Ashamed- You feel it every day
A lie - You created to be strong
The fear - That no one believes you
You will never be what you claim
I hope you are ashamed
The lyrics of "Insatiable" by Grid give a strong message about greed and how it can destroy individuals. The song is essentially directed towards an individual who craves for more and more, disregarding whatever they already have. The lyrics describe how this individual releases once they obtain what they want, but they never seem to feel satisfied or content. Instead, they continue to try and feed their soul with poison, leading to an unhealthy and unsustainable lifestyle. Grid highlights that the individual is aware that they will never be what they claim or what they strive for; this leads to them feeling ashamed of themselves every day.
Furthermore, the lyrics explain that this individual created lies to give themselves the facade of strength, but in truth, they are fueled by fear, believing that no one believes them. The truth has finally come out, and everything is over for them. The song further emphasizes how the individual will never be what they claim, and the singer hopes that they are feeling ashamed of themselves. The song is not just about the individual described in the song but also highlights a problem in society and how it can lead to an unfulfilled life.
