Oh hell yes. They are still my fav band of all time. I can't wait wait for Justin to bring out his Jesu project. I'm hoping to be doing a cover of Like Rats with my band for a Godflesh tribute cd. Just waiting on approval from the other guy's. (Their not the greatest fans).
It's good to see other people into this truly underground band. I find these people to be very few and far between. I started a Godflesh thread a couple of months ago and got minimal response. Any other albums that have taken your breath away?
I found Pure and Selfless to be worthy releases. Love And Hate... is another fav. A monster of an album that one.

All Godflesh albums are pure musical bliss. I never owned Streetcleaner . . . but I have all the others. I've only heard a few songs off Streetcleaner. It is more in line with Pure, I think. Pure happens to be one of the best albums ever made on this planet.

I had the pure honor of hosting the Godflesh board for a few months in '02. To be honest though, when I first heard the streetcleaner album in the early 90's I didn't like it. It took me a few years to really 'get it'. Ahead of it time or just ahead of me? I love the album now.

I need more Godflesh albums... at the moment, I only have Streetcleaner, Songs Of Love & Hate and Hymns. But yeah, Streetcleaner rocks like a bastard... I love the way the manage to sound brutally heavy but also somehow frail and vulnerable at the same time... and the song structures have a bizarrely hypnotic, mantra-like effect despite the heaviness... I can't think of any other band like them.

That's what makes them so good, when you listen, you can't compare their sound to any other band, so it isn't "like" anything. It IS awesome.

They've influenced some great bands that I have been listening to alot now and in the past. Like FEAR FACTORY, ISIS, NEUROSIS, MINISTRY, PITCH SHIFTER to name a few. There's no denying the impact Godflesh have made on their creative process's. ISIS even paid tribute with an awsome cover of Streetcleaner. Justin would be proud I'm sure. I really can't wait for his new guitar based, post Godflesh outfit to emerge. JESU.
