Gallactus are a stoner metal band, or "Cosmic Bong Rock" as they describe themselves, from Sussex, New Brunswick, Canada who formed in 2001. The band consists of Dan Hodgson (vocals), Shaun Crawford (bass), Jason McAllister (guitar) and Chris Crawford (drums). Originally called Galactus 77, the band changed their name to Gallactus to deter associations with other bands with numbers in their names such as Sum 41 or Blink 182. They released their demo, Launch, Orbit, Land, Repeat in 2002 and their first full-length, Empire of the Eye, in 2004, independently. In 2007, the band was signed by Halifax, Nova Scotia label, Diminished Fifth Records. They would release their second full-length Nine Mile Woods the next year, with very positive reviews. The band has been nominated for the first Loud ECMA award ever for 2009.
