That was before I heard the album courtesy of a friend. ;-)

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.

o rly? remixed in what way? ie so it sounds like it was actually recorded using some form of high-fidelity equipment, or inna "oceanic remixes" stylee?

Silver is now AWESOME and really far more melodic and three-dimensional (the depth of the sound is astonishing) than I'd expected. There's really some substance behind this sound, something of almost infinite allure, which is feeding my curiosity no end.
― Scourage (Haberdager), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:35 (seventeen years ago) link
Grimly y rnoiwontfuckingsayit It sounds great. Vocals are far more up front and the whole thing does sound great.

Ebay will be much higher. Avalanche had the original Conspiracy records double vinyl version when it came out, £19.99 they wanted for it.I got mine cheaper than that from Conspiracy and it was on red vinyl too.
So e-vinyl is probably your cheapest bet.

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.

Listening to it got me listened to Ice's Under the Skin which I would kill for a remaster/reissue of. I would also love God's Possession and Anatomy of Addiction to remastered and released.

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 (eight 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.
