Godflesh

[Eoin McLove]

Decay cranked on the stereo here now. Sounds great.

What caught me about this album, while listening to it on the phone on YouTube (sorry audiophiles ) is that its focus is on tones and noises, the beats are simple and brutal. I think that being in that headspace of listening to lots of stuff like old Current 93 and The Moon Lay Hidden Beneath A Cloud etc has primed my ears for the minimal and harsh buzz. There's no real groove going on- just pummelling nihilism. I dig it!

I agree. Its nihilistic trance

Bedad. I'll be hitting them up so, it's sold out on Freebird and Spindizzy.

Record Shop X in Finland has a few copies. Postage to Ireland for several CDs is a fiver as well, so probably cheaper than here.

Never thought of them, thanks. I bought a few Reverend Bizarre CDs from them over the years, grand for it.

Just nabbed a copy and a few other bits there myself. Always found it great despite a few random albums being perplexingly overpriced.

Lashed on SOLAH this morning for the spin to work. Got most of the way through. Another fantastic album. I love the drumming on it. Mad how different Mantia makes it sound compared to Parsons on Hymns. Both are great, just different. Very different

[DUBHLOCH]

The new album is much better than Godflesh's last few records but nothing beats Godflesh Mk 1 from Streetcleaner to Hymns. Hopefully the final album delves further into the heavy bleakness of Decay.
