Title: Godflesh - Long Live The New Flesh boxset
Post by: Carnage on July 09, 2021, 07:30:10 PM
I thought there was a Godflesh thread but couldn't find it...

Upcoming boxset of all of the reunion era material plus remixes & unreleased tracks. Sounds good for you vinyl people:

That is a tasty boxset. I can't see myself buying this as I already have most of it separately. Godflesh rule! They have been on my "to see list" for a long time now

That'll be taxed to hell with VAT/Duty/etc, coming from the UK?

If it comes from the UK.  The last few orders I put in on the JKB store (Jesu tees and records) were looked after by We Ship Vinyl and came from the Netherlands iirc.  This is the same company again so I'm hoping it goes the same way.  If it doesn't, it should only sting me for an extra €20-€22 quid (VAT and handling, no duty) which isn't too bad considering.

Edit: I bought it as ye may have figured from the rest of the post.

Never thought of that TBH. I have a Jesu T-shirt ordered from him, it's coming from Plastic Head & I think they're UK based too.

I got a Messiah shirt off Plastic Head too last month, luckily before the cut off changed, you'll likely get hit on that alright it looks like they shipped from the UK itself.

Yeah, I forgot about it and had around €25 whacked onto a discogs order from the UK there. Thankfully it was still cheaper than any EU sellers with the same stuff, but definitely not something I'll forget to factor in again!

CD version on the way:

https://www.justinkbroadrick.com/collections/godflesh/products/godflesh-long-live-the-new-flesh-4cd-box-set-arec053-pre-order

I've already got the 2 albums and EP or I'd be all over this. As it is, I bought the download of the bonus material, but a separate CD release would be groovy.

Incidentally, I didn't get a customs charge on that T-shirt in the end.

They played Cork/Dublin in 2000,and definitely another time in Dublin after that?,01/02.They went on a hiatus/split not long after.

I cant recall have they played since they reformed.

€70 for a 4LP box set is pretty decent especially going by todays standards.

I've the CD's, very tempted with the vinyl although I doubt very much there'll be any left by pay day.

I've the vinyl here, they look great and are a good collector's item for the price but no major difference in the sound to the CD or digital the more I have them on, if anyone is curious.

So I've listened to this a few times now. First impression is that life is going by like one of those flick animations because I can't believe it's ten years since the OG version. Second is that it's just brilliant. Third is that it's as good as any of the dub stuff they've had. Fourth is that it's a bit short but that can be a good thing as well and I realise it's not the 90s style 78:59 at all costs. Fifth is wondering what happened to the Us And Them Dub.

Happy out

I feel like this one could possibly change your mind about the dub stuff. There's a lot more guitar in it than the other ones

Finally got the AWLOBD CD in the post today, first one got lost so they sent a replacement (which was nice of them, they could have told me it was my problem). Downloaded it when I preordered so I've given it a few runs through but it's nice to actually have the disc itself for completion's sake.

Just saw this in the Avalanchers FB group:

QuoteHeard from Justin today, he's given the okay to share some life changing news. Official statement to come...

JKB is recovering and regaining mobility from a serious abdominal surgery some three weeks ago. It addressed a significant hernia issue that had been developing and increasingly affecting live performance. Some may already have heard, or noticed the scaling down of live shows over the past months. The operation went ok, but this condition has resulted in chronic physical limitations that make intense physical activity and loud singing unsafe.

GODFLESH will no longer perform live. Last year's "in dub" in London was the final GODFLESH performance. This aligns with thoughts that had already been forming about eventually closing out GODFLESH, but the recent surgery simply accelerated that...

Mixing on the penultimate GODFLESH LP, "DECAY" is almost complete, aiming at early autumn release. Another, already written final LP will follow, which will be recorded toward the end of the year. Afterwards, GODFLESH will exist through releases of live/archival/dub/other rare material.

The next jesu LP titled "Still Life" is currently in demo form, with recording and mixing slated for spring, and release expected late 2026. jesu performances will continue as they don't require the physicality, and JKB will be easing back into live activity in the coming months of recovery

JKB is also excited to tell about developing a new solo project, exploring new forms of heavy, filthy electronics layered with guitars and voice. It will occasionally be presented live, and possibly with a drummer taking over rhythm.

Glad I saw them when I did a few years ago, but it's shite news all the same. At least there's more material to come, plus the live/archival stuff.

He looks great for 56. Him and Bill Steer must be on the same program.

Godflesh for me are more of a live band. I love the earlier stuff but not crazy on the reunion material and have little interest in hearing the rare material coming out.

It's a shame I was just thinking about the last Godflesh show here in the Academy when I was at ND last week hoping they would come back over again soon.

Yep, same.
Saw them on the US and Them tour in the late 90's in Eindhoven, and there in 2022 in The Opium.
They were absolutely savage both times.

Was at that gig in Opium and it was absolutely fantastic. Caught them in Limerick as well and they were just brilliant again. One of those ones like Swans where you'd just have to see them to get how heavy it hits.

At least we get 2 more albums and he's still making music. I'd go see Jesu as well if they were gigging

Another one for the Opium gig here, some show. It was so loud it hurt my feet.

Good that there's more to come, and I'm curious about the live/dub material. Not sure what rare material there is, they don't seem to hold much back. It's been a while since I got excited about Jesu material TBH.

Caught them in the Opium a few years back and in Limerick as well.  Had the pleasure of driving the lads from the train station to the gig that day :laugh:  savage band, shame they are done live but given the surgery and everything it is understandable.  At least the music itself from all the projects is still going.

Would also see Jesu live again in a heartbeat, saw them with Isis in the temple bar years ago and they were lethal.

I believe it was 2005, sadly wasn't at it. I see JK Flesh has some bandcamp stuff pay what you want.
