Reviews

This album badly needs remastering. One of the best Godflesh albums, but it sounds so weak and thin compared to others. See track Mothra on "In All Languages" - it's sorta remastered there, but with way too much bass, practically unlistenable. Justin, please do this album justice!

Long before Korn and Linkin Park, there was Godflesh. Godflesh were pioneers of their time, not afraid to buck the at-that-time tradition of being a "Death Metal" band with a drummer. They used a drum machine, and overtly promoted this fact. tracks like "Spite" and "Pure" were the forerunners for today's rash of "nu metal" crossover style, with crunching heavy guitars over hip-hop inspired beats. This is a must hear for anyone wishing to know where the innovation for modern crossover rock/rap began.
