Godflesh - Announce details of their first album in thirteen years!!!
October 6th 2014
Release
Are you ready for 'A World lit only by Fire' !!!
Industrial Metal innovators Godflesh have announced the details of their highly anticipated full length A World lit only by Fire' which is set for a October 6th release on their own Avalanche Recordings label. The album arrives on the heels of June’s 'Decline and Fall' EP, which was met with widespread acclaim for its effortless synthesis of the duo’s fan favoured early albums. Godflesh themselves are groundbreaking genre experiments that pioneered an integration of Electronic music’s bombastic rhythms, Metal’s bludgeoning force and Post Punk’s aural atmospherics. Whereas the new EP succeeded by fulfilling listener expectations, the full length exceeds them delivering a full force exploration of the furthest boundaries of Godflesh’s extreme sonics and then pushing beyond them detailing the rich musical experience accrued in the dozen year span and countless musical projects (Jesu, Final, Vitriol, Greymachine, Techno Animal Etc...) between recordings.
The duo comprised of legendary talents of Justin Broadrick (also of Jesu, JK Flesh, Techno Animal, Pale Sketcher Ext...) and GC Green, formed in 1988 in the same fertile Birmingham, UK scene that forged the talents of Napalm Death, Carcass and Head of David among many others. Initially disbanding in 2002, the band resumed live performances in 2010 and began the arduous work of crafting a follow up to 2001’s 'Hymns'. The resultant self-recorded ten song set mounts the thin line between high definition clarity and raw, visceral heaviness, inducing a meditative state via seething minimalism that hinges on ritualistic riff repetition and the tenuous membrane between anxiety inducing dissonance and cathartic minor key melody.
