God, PossessionTechno Animal, Re-EntryGodflesh, In All Languages, Pure, StreetcleanerThe Bug, Pressure
All recommended. Not recommended: Brotherhood Of The Bomb, that other Ice album, the Curse Of The Golden Vampire discs.
I wish I still owned Godflesh's Selfless and Love And Hate In Dub.
I'm a little uncertain about the Jesu disc. Haven't gotten my copy in the mail yet, but I'm not sure Broadrick has much to say anymore, either.

I'm not really in love with any of that Kevin Martin related stuff, but I have always loved Final, Sidewinder, etc.
Damn I love that man. Isolation has always been his gig, but does a song name like "Friends are Evil" approach self-parody?

Never heard much else from the JKB side of post-Napalm Death stuff, though I have an abiding love for Lull/Scorn, but Jesu totally slayed me the first time I heard "We All Falter." Rest of the album is only slightly less majestic.

the silver EP, however ... heard it for the first time today and it sounds like the music a) i was trying to make myself five or six years ago (and failing miserably), and b) i've been waiting half my life for someone else to make. absolutely astonishing; i can't get enough of it.
my awakening to metal/post-metal/etc is a relatively recent thing; as i've posted on other threads, it's entirely rooted in my love of slowdive and MBV et al all those years ago. i know absolutely sod all about godflesh or any of the other offshoots, but i'm intrigued: taking my love of "silver" as a starting point, what should i seek out next?

doesn't really - the name is about the only thing they have in common. under the skin is more like a hybrid of godflesh and god, with a couple of longer tracks that actually get kind of funky. definitely worth hearing if you dig earlier god/flesh stuff.

The new remixed version of the Jesu - Jesu album, out on Pic Disk from Hydrahead is really great. Vocals are more upfront. I wouldn't be surprised if next year it gets a release on normal vinyl(probably on 5 colours too since it's HH) But if you can get the pic disk then do so. The quality is the best i've heard on a pic disk. As good as normal vinyl i'd say.

i'm checking out the two jesu releases from last year and they're kinda weird? broadrick really exploring vocal loops a la "comforter" from every day i get closer to the light from which i came

to follow up on this: terminus is jesu-by-the-numbers with a few weird flourishes. if you want to hear a jesu record, it is one. but the never ep finds the jesu sound straying into... extremely processed technopop???? it rules

and this song sorta splits the difference between the usual jesu sound and the vocal cut-up electropop in the above song and it sounds so good. i would like for justin broadrick to release an entire album that sounds like these two songs

I nommed the greymachine in that year's metal poll iirc and not many of us voted for it?
Had to do a decent length of run on the car today so took it with me and it's maybe better than I remember it being. Wasted in particular is immense.

Three years ago or so (pre-COVID) I had a brief exchange with Martin about putting together a CD box set gathering up all the God material. I think it probably would have been around five CDs, maybe six, but the rights would be a giant pain in the ass (multiple labels, many of which don't exist anymore) to negotiate and he didn't feel like it. Oh, well...

Picked up the digital copy of Re-Entry from Bandcamp. I still have my original CDs somewhere in a dusty Case Logic. I hope I didn't dispense with the iconic original art. I forgot how great this album is. I don't have a record player, but I'm tempted to by the 4LP set and the damn t-shirt.

I talked to Martin a few years ago about doing a God box but he wasn't interested. Too much hassle negotiating the rights, for too little reward.
― but also fuck you (unperson), Thursday, 6 July 2023 18:33 (ten months ago) link
Yeah I was talking to him last year and he was firmly pushing the 'looking forward, never back' line.
Loco is the album with the most room for remastering I think but I'm not sure how good the original tapes are.
