This is terrible news, hope he’s okay. So glad I got to see Godflesh live once. It was in a small hut in the woods. Absolutely incredible experience

It really is a gut punch to see this news but at least hes not completely unable to make more music in the future. Godflesh already has a legendary discography so its all the more reason for him to put his health first.

on the bright side, more ablums

I'm so glad I got to see them a few years ago, that show has stayed with me.

just fell to my knees, this fucking sucks man

Couldn't they actually just get someone else to perform the harsh vocals that's willing to do it and Justin focus on cleans? I feel like that's really not that out of the realm of possibility unless money is an issue or he particularly prefers to perform the art himself.

Damn

gnarly news. dude is getting on so may be about time. grateful to have seen them a few times. looking forward to what the last album brings

This sucks so hard. :[[[

What a blow, but he's gotta keep his health first and foremost. Makes me even sadder I blew off going to their gig last year because I was sure they'd come back again.

Dude that's messed up. Hope Justin's ok. I love him, he's my hero.

Never got to see him live, but I hope he's doing okay and recovers soon

Hope he can get back to good health. Good for him for recognizing when to call it rather than push it and worsen the condition.

I genuinely thought "Forced To Retire" was the name of some new song and was entirely in denial until I read the article twice

luckily he’s still got his other electronic projects like jkflesh and techno animal and that stuff is usually quality.

Sad news.Creativity always needs humans condition to exist, but i hope Justin makes it through as a cyborg.

Damn this is super unfortunate. I hope we can still get more Jesu eventually, but who knows. Wishing him the best

That sucks, Justin has had a super rough past few years health wise so I'm glad he recognises when it's time to step back and give himself a rest. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

It’s unfortunate but necessary that he prioritize his health. Hope he has a speedy recovery [2]

This sucks big time but I'm glad he is taking his health seriously tbh.

Can't believe I went to what is likely to be the final Godflesh show. I'm glad he's prioritising his health, new Jesu and Godflesh is worth getting excited over.

I missed the part about new Jesu being on the table. That's good news at least.

how awful for him, hope he can continue to enjoy his other projects to their fullest !!

Wtf RIP

Horrible to hear, yeah just hope it hasn’t eroded years off his life and he is ok health wise this band was incredible

Too bad I never caught them live, seemed to be one hell of a gig. Gonna go watch the Hellfest 2022 one now
