there's no joy



bruh needs to listen to some more Killing Joke - they have joy



"what's the verdict?"



not one to hastily dish out a rating after only one or two listens (I've been known to wait years...), but you already know (just ask Flugmorph 🤣)

@ryus better not going in with such expectations, it's got some Pure-esque tracks, but mostly it does its own thing.

that was mostly a dumb joke based on the titles of the albums lol

this is pretty good, especially enjoyed the first 2 tracks

interesting! first two are probably the weakest on the album for me, i do adore land lord though. 3-8 are just tops, but im currently having trouble finishing with the last track i get kind of worn out by track 7. but the closer is soooo good so im just gonna keep spinning until that tracklist flow clicks!

Godflesh and hip hop is a hell of a combo. Not on paper, but definitely in execution.

They are now part of the 0.01% of artists who have tried to mix hip hop and metal and made it not cringe as fuck

lol they have been for over 30 years



check title track off of Pure or "Christbait Rising" (respective albums are at least slightly superior to this)

don't lie, some of the flesh hip hop parts are cringe



but yeah way better than most. a lot more subtle and strictly in the rhythm so I think it works better than most artists who force it.

I will not check any of those things and they will remain albums stored so far in the back of my memory that they barely exist

I will check Norma’s rec that I actually haven’t heard tho cuz he’s a gentleman

that's cool Messiah is awesome too



Pure solid contender for my favorite but I guess it'd be head-and-head with a few others... or a lot of others

In terms of sheer badassery, I think Shut Me Down is their best song. That song makes me wanna lift an 18 wheeler

there are at least two EPs I think I'd put ahead of Pure, but I also consider the debut EP a full-length

Back when I listened to any God Flesh last I didn’t listen to hip hop so I have no point of reference for whether or not it was cringe but I’m gonna just adopt Tim’s opinion on the matter
