It gotta be one of the heaviest crushing tones I’ve ever heard in an album, you feel your bowels turn to liquid.
Haha, yeah such a heavy album! Unrelenting heaviness from beginning to end.
Holy crap can’t believe someone is reacting to this album. Godflesh is one of the most important bands in my life. During my teen years no other band came close to blow my mind like they did. Although saying that the first time I listened to them I didn’t get it cause I was heavily into death metal at the time and didn’t understand. But came back again and again and eventually everything clicked.
If you dig this one you should absolutely check out Swans’ two first albums, ‘Filth’ and ‘Cop’. Not as groovy, but every inch as heavy if not more. Justin has stated early Swans as a big influence several times and the similarities are obvious, especially on Streetcleaner. Streetcleaner is a stone classic on it’s own merits, though. No one knew what to make of it at all when it dropped onto the unsuspecting Metal scene in 1989, but it definitely left it’s mark. Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, Faith No More and countless other rock bands got much heavier and brutal after this one. Godflesh changed the sound of Heavy music for the future without most people knowing and it’s amazing to see how that continues to this day.
Also FF of course and even Korn.
Goddamnit I just wrote a similar paragraph and then read yours haha
So true though early swans are the sleeper hit of industrial metal. Teeeechnically not metal albums I’ve heard some folks say but idc it sounds like metal to me.
I'd love to give Swans a listen too, I've had them suggested to me before on the channel but knowing they were such a big influence on this style of music I'm even more intrigued to hear them.
Godflesh never saw themvselves as a Metal band as well, but they became known as one as their label, Earache Records, and their network was primarily known for cultivating and pushing the most extreme Metal there was at the time. I guess that’s how one pushes the establishment from the inside :)
@@mollyesanborn Swans have changed their style so many times over the years, so you'll get a different experience with each album of theirs you listen to. As the original poster mentioned though, Filth and Cop are the two albums that sound like they had the biggest influence on Godflesh.
Godflesh never miss with their albums, I also recommend to check out A World Lit Only by Fire, this one is interesting as well
disgustingly heavy album, it's a shame the snares aren't as strong as their early days
For sure, I'll look forward to giving A World Lit Only By Fire a listen as well :)
That's my favorite. Great album
Been listening to Godflesh all week. Love Streetcleaner. edit: also check out Broadricks other band, Jesu, it is really cool, too.
GOD is another great band that includes Broadrick
Yeah, Streetcleaner is amazing. So glad I checked this one out! Godflesh has such a unique sound that I am quickly becoming addicted to, so I'd love to check out Jesu in the future as well.
Also check out his and Kevin Martins project Techno Animal. The Re:entry album is immense industrial dub.
I found your channel through your Björk ranking video, so I cackled when I saw this was your most recent vid. It is awesome that you are covering such a variety of artists. This album rocks.
It's beautiful to see another Bjork/ Godflesh fan...I hope you are well!
Haha, thanks for following the channel! It seems like SO long ago that I made that Björk ranking, time sure does fly. Yeah my music range has sure expanded quite a bit since them, I'm so happy to be discovering all of these incredible bands.
I saw them on this tour. They were playing with Napalm Death and Nocturnus. I had never seen photos of any of these band but the usual look at the time was long hair and band t-shirts. I was hanging out in the crowd waiting for the show to start. This strange, almost hyperactive, little bald guy in regular clothes came up to me and asked me for some weed, which I didn't have. I saw him ask several others too. Imagine my surprise when he walks out onstage about 20 minutes later, pushes the button on a drum machine and launches into this. So yeah, Justin Broadrick hit me up for weed and I didn't know who he was. This record is bone crushingly heavy in a way that was just brand new when it came out. Not like the Death Metal or Doom stuff everyone else was doing. It took the Industrial sounds of Ministry and NIN into new territory. The productions values add to the effect, as you kept commenting on. I always picked up on all the religious themes too. Even the name Godflesh has religious overtones. In Christianity, Jesus is sometimes referred to as God made flesh. This record gets better with more listens and I'm really glad you are enjoying it so much the first time around. Streetcleaner is my favorite track.
That's a great story, thanks for sharing! I'd love to see Godflesh live at some point, that's gotta be pretty amazing to hear this music in person. They really have such a unique style of industrial metal, so heavy and although there is something weirdly upbeat at times about this album, it's a different vein of industrial from what I'm used to with the likes of Ministry and NIN, etc. I love it though, just so suffocating with its tone. I'll certainly be checking more of their music out now.
@@mollyesanborn Yeah, it was a really exciting time. A lot of new ground was being broken. Industrial, Death Metal, Grindcore and Doom were all new genres just beginning to emerge and define themselves. Thrash itself was pretty new and it was spawning off and influencing this new stuff. And the shows were insane. A hundred or so people in some dive club where the moshing and stage diving was unchecked. The bands freely mingled with the fans so you got to meet people. All for like $10 at the door for three or four bands on the bill. I wish I had a time machine. LOL. You'd have fit in the scene pretty well and been a welcome addition.
@@metalrules1135 that sounds incredible, lucky you had that experience. I agree it would be so cool to have the ability to travel back and relive those early shows!
I heard they took the name from the psychedelic effects of mescaline traditionally being referred to as ‘the flesh of god’.
@@peroskarstorholm4196 Could very well be. I never heard or read an interview where Broadrick discussed his beliefs. His later band was Jesu, so there is that too. He may not be trying to send any message. I vaguely recall an interview where he said he just puts things out there for people to think about and decide for themselves.
I've always felt this was one of the most important metal albums of all-time and pushed the boundaries of what the genre was capable of. The guitars in metal pre-Streetcleaner were very riff and solo-oriented, but on Streetcleaner, the guitars are used more to create these sort of textured, atmospheric, sonic soundscapes. It inspired bands like Neurosis, Isis, and a lot of groups in the post-metal movement that was really big in the 2000's.
You're goddamn right
Surprised to get a new video so soon, but glad it’s for GODFLESH of all bands! They have an interesting evolution over the years but don’t worry, their just as dark, nihilistic & sludgy on the rest! lol
Whenever you feel like total garbage or sick, Streetcleaner feels like a weird hug (like it understands what your going through)
A delightfully apocalyptic wasteland of an album featuring just two guys (Justin on guitar/vocals & G.C. on bass) and a drum machine. One of the best releases in industrial music alongside Psalm 69, NIHIL, Too Dark Park & The Downward Spiral
I love your description... "a delightfully apocalyptic wasteland of an album." That really describes the sound of this record so well, haha! But yeah Godflesh really did an amazing job with Streetcleaner and I am so excited to hear even more of their discography now.
@@mollyesanbornglad to hear it! Because Godflesh is heavily influenced by Post-Punk, I’m curious if you’ve checked out bands in that style? (the darker stuff in particular like Joy Division, Killing Joke & The Chameleons especially)
4 tracks into the album, and I already enjoy it. I enjoy Like Rats and Christbait Rising so far. I just wished I discovered them earlier.
@@SomerankeroffYT No, I'm not very familiar with many post-punk bands. I'll certainly keep all of your suggestions in mind! :)
@@mollyesanborn thank you! You’ll be in for a treat if you give any one of those a go :D
Scorn was the other two thirds of Napalm Death's original line-up.
Their album "Evanescence" is the last one featuring Nick Bullen, the bassist vocalist.
They have evolved from a sound reminiscent of Godflesh (Boadrick played on early tracks) but this album has more of a narcotic quality to it.
For a nice change, but still in the same universe.
Saw them live a few years ago and I couldn't stand up for 20 minutes after it because of how heavy it was
Hey Molly, hope you're well!
If you are interested in the origins of the early Godflesh-Sound, maybe you wanna try some Swans - BIG influence! - like "FILTH" or "COP". It's really heavy shit and very pure. Broadrick said somewhere something like: Swans are the real grindcore.
Enjoy your journey !
That's good to know! I've had Swans on my list of bands to check out, but I'll try and get to them even sooner now knowing that they're such an influence for this style of music.
Godflesh is such a heavily influential band, this album's fantastic!
Absolutely, I can hear so many different styles blended together on Streetcleaner. I'll definitely do some more of their albums!
Broadrick is a total genius, he is being so underrated despite all the great things he brought to the table in terms of music, heaviness and creativity - and the bass of Ben Green is incredibly heavy and apparently simple, but it requires a zen calm to use those superheavy notes!!! :D
Great video!!!
An album I would recommend to you in terms of crazy strong music - but it's a heavy one, Today Is The Day "And Sadness Will Prevail" got some of these noisy guitars as well!, and "A Sun That Never Sets" by Neurosis - that is such an emotional, slow, hard album it could really surprise you!!!
Greetings from Italy
I absolutely love their style of music, there's something so intense about the way they use that repetitive rhythm across this record, it's like the music is crushing you with so much force. It almost forces you into a sort of cathartic trance when listening to it (or at least that's the effect it has on me). Thank you for the further album suggestions, I will have to check them both out!
@@mollyesanborn you are so kind to read and reply to comments, you are seriously such a sincere music lover and with such a nice character
Aw thanks, I really appreciate the kind words! ❤️
Just FYI, the last 4 tracks were taken from their Tiny Tears EP. The original pressing of the album stopped after Locust Furnace. That's why those last 4 tracks had a bit of a different sound, a bit less sludgy and more uptempo. But yeah, this album is a classic. Love Godflesh!
Ahh, thanks for the explanation! Yeah I definitely noticed that faster tempo toward the end of the record.
They will never ever reach the heights of this album.
It's a unique album where multiple forces converged - influences, musicians, ideas, opportunities - and everyone involved became more than what they are.
A truly inspiring album.
Their Most ferocious album period
Saw them live 10 years ago and 1 year ago, absolutely crushing
That must've been amazing seeing them live! I'll certainly keep my eyes out on their touring schedule, I'd love to go to one of their shows if I get the chance.
ive never heard this, or really anything by Godflesh, it reminds me me of VERY early Swans. if you havent already, id LOVE to see your reaction to Filth.
Noted, I would love to give Swans a listen soon!
Godflesh have cited swans as a major influence on their music in various interviews
Fuck yeah! I love this album
🤘
Very insightful observations of this album. Justin's back catalog is all encompassing filled with vastly different soundscapes but still ends up sounding like him if that makes any sense. This album was my gateway to other projects of his. Streetcleaner is one my favorite Godflesh albums along with Selfless. No one Godflesh album or ep sounds like the next thing even if theres a continuity running through it. Jesu is probably the most vulnerable and morose sounding music of Justin's career. The heartache ep and the self titled are my personal favorites. The whole thing you were saying about Godflesh sounding ethereal and almost choir like gets amped up to 11 with jesu. Good review/reaction...
She gets it
🤘
Something visceral about Godflesh.
Someone made a video of Christbait Rising with Russell's Altered States and it blends so well!
One of the best videos out there.
I suggest.
Thanks for letting me know, I'll have to give that video a watch.
Good choice to start, great video. Knew you'd enjoy it after seeing you excited by the new ones. Where to go next ? just complete the discography one by one (don't skip Cold World single and Merciless EP), check how JKB and this project was developing, each album a bit different from the last.
Once that is done.. Fall of Because (proto Godflesh, very reminicsent, '86), Sweet Tooth (another side project, "super group", bit more different than Godflesh but I've never heard JKB plays guitar like that, showing how versatile he is, released just one sueprb album, very unique)
Yes, I'll definitely continue with Godflesh! Thanks for the other suggestions as well, I know Justin Broadrick has done more stuff outside of Godflesh so I'll definitely keep those in mind as well.
@@mollyesanborn He's done a ton of things, a lot of different genres.. you've mentioned kinda hip hop beats during one of the tracks. During the 90's he participated in a group called Techno Animal.. yeah, kinda "hip hop". Pretty much anything he's involved in is gold, but those two I mentioned are the top with Godflesh IMO. Can't wait to see you enjoy more of them :)
@@gal2659 that's cool, yeah I can definitely hear that hip hop influence across this album. I'll have to check out Techno Animal at some point.
absolutely agree! 'fall of because' and 'sweet tooth' are great and so unusual sounding. i would also add 'cable regime' which co-produced by broadrick. not to mention 'god', 'ice', 'techno animal', 'greymachine', 'jk flesh (especially "posthuman" album)', 'valley of fear' ...
a rabbit hole
One of the greatest industrial metal albums of all time! I put it up there with Ministry's "The Mind" and Strapping Young Lad's "City" (Two other albums I'd recommend if you haven't heard them.)
City is an absolutely furious album. One of the angriest I’ve ever heard.
Wanted to mention Godflesh were inspired by the early works of swans. Godflesh is an incredible group with their own distinctive brand of dark, sludgy industrial and I’m super excited for your reactions to their remarkably consistent discography- but I’d highly also recommend checking out swans at some point too. Their early stuff is a grating fusion of sludge/industrial metal and a dark, experimental punk style known as “No Wave.” Filth and cop are both near-masterpieces so I’d recommend just starting from their beginning if you would consider reacting :)
Hope you enjoy if so, no worried if not. Love your content!
Swans keep getting suggested here in the comments so I will absolutely have to give them a listen! I'm excited to check out their music :)
Godflesh is a band I have been wanting to check out since you made that video of best albums of 2023, but didn't know where to begin. Streetcleaner seems like a good start. I mean I managed to enjoy Calculating Infinity and One of us is the Killer by Dillenger Escape plan. Plus I am obsessed with California by Mr. Bungle, I have been playing that Non Stop. Godflesh is Next!
Heck yeah!!! Definitely check out Streetcleaner, this album really sucks you in with its sound, I love how brutally heavy it is but yet there's this amazing sort of hollow and atmospheric quality about it as well. From what I've heard so far from Godflesh they seem to be masters at bringing a ton of heaviness with very minimal instrumentation, it's impressive stuff.
@@mollyesanborn how would you compare it to say... Reing in blood by Slayer?
I haven't heard reign in blood by Slayer yet! So I couldn't tell you. I want to get to some Slayer music here on the channel in the future though.
Really into your appreciation for industrial metal. I love industrial metal and techno-industrial a lot. I highly recommend digging into KMFDM (try their albums "Nihil" and "Angst") and Front 242 (try albums "Tyranny for You" and 06:21:03:11 Up Evil), oh I almost forgot about Frontline Assembly and their album "Millennium"
Industrial metal is my jam haha! I'm already hooked on Godflesh and can't wait to discover more in the genre. And thanks for the suggestions, I'll be sure that I've got KMFDM, Front 242 and Frontline Assembly all on my list to check out.
Reacciona a JESU. El proyecto mas shoegaze de Justin Broadrick.
Me encantaría escuchar a Jesu también :)
You should check out Jesu’s “Silver” EP, it’s really beautiful.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'd absolutely love to give it a listen!
As a Birmingham based music fan, these guys are one of the best in the pioneering style through the industrial metal genre. Speaking of heavy, I highly recommend Strapping Young Lad as they are one of my top favourite bands in the genre, although they were technical/chaotic and more extreme. SYL was Devin Townsend's band. He has made a ton of albums through different styles and moods through metal to progressive genres.
Listening to Streetcleaner I can definitely hear how influential Godflesh was on the industrial music scene. They definitely have such a unique quality to their sound that blends a lot of elements together. I'm very curious to progress through their discography now and hear more of their work. And thanks for the suggestion! I have Strapping Young Lad on my list of bands to get to in the future, I'll have to try and get to them soon :)
If you love this I strongly recommend Pitch Shifter and the albums Industrial and Desensitized. After that they changed their sound very much.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll have to check out Pitch Shifter when I get the chance.
Definitely check out Crush My Soul by Godflesh. The guitar tone on that is insanely good, and very unusual. I haven't heard any of their recent output but you've inspired me to do so.
Ooh that makes me so excited to hear that track!! I'll definitely keep progressing with their discography and I'll be looking forward to that song when I get to their Selfless album.
Other Godflesh' albums that are also worth to check are "Godflesh" EP and "Messiah" EP, originally "Streetcleaner" album ends with the "Streetcleaner" song.
I believe it ends with Locust Furnace, not with Streetcleaner
@@ilyas_elouchihi yeah you are right, this album has 9 songs.
Thanks for the further suggestions, I'll definitely have to do some more Godflesh on the channel!
@@mollyesanbornyou should to listen to Pure. Another their classic album.
Wow. Great video review. Love your descriptive narratives.
Thanks for watching! :)
Ayyy, if she's covering Godflesh there's hope for Thrice or Circa Survive 🙏
Yessss! I've got both of those bands on my list :)
It's interesting how you always assign qualities and ownership to things.. like instead the drums BEING pounding, they "have such a pounding quality to them" or "there is such a heaviness to this" xD
The two greatest hidden gems are Xynobis (psychofuckdub) and Crush my Soul (ultramix)
Basically everything Justin Broadrick is involved with rules. Highly recommend the album 'Disconnected' by Greymachine, probably the heaviest and most punishing JB release (at least IMO).
That album is almost unlistenable for how heavy it is
Now you need to listen to Fear Factory’s Demanufacture and Killing Joke self-titled debut.
Great suggestions, I have both of those records on my list and am looking forward to hearing them!
LOVE GODFLESH. Another super heavy album you should check out is The Process Of by Turmoil
Yeah I'm quickly falling in love with Godflesh's sound! I'll definitely be checking out more of their albums. And thanks for the suggestion, I'll make sure it's on my list :)
This album is a pure industrial masterpiece. The sound and atmosphere are so unique.
I absolutely agree!
I’m excited for you to get into more heavier stuff. Some Meshuggah, Behemoth, Gojira etc.
I'm excited too, Meshuggah for sure has been high up on my list of bands I wanna get to soon! I have actually heard Gojira already though, in fact I did a discography ranking video for them a while back on the channel if you're interested :)
ua-cam.com/video/nICgm1dC2GU/v-deo.htmlsi=HpneK6b5jq4dMwfD
Fear Factory's Demanufacture is also one killer industrial metal album.
I've got it on my list! I'll try and get to a reaction for it real soon :)
@@mollyesanborn The debut album by Slipknot has a lot of FF-influences...
Fear Factory are big Godflesh fans, their first album is almost a Streetcleaner ripoff lol
This album is fckn sick!! When do you plan to dwell deeper into the alice in chains/jerry cantrell rabbithole? Really anticipating your reaction to their newer albums and Jerry's solo work!
I'm not sure exactly when but I'll plan on it at some point! I'd love to hear more AIC/Jerry Cantrell stuff, I'll probably finish off with Alice In Chains next so The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here will likely be my next video for them :)
I got into these guys a little over a year ago after reading a Chat Pile interview where they cited them as a real big influence alongside of Korn.
I don't know if this counts as a genre but listening to early Godflesh for me is like getting a glimpse into the early development of what would become late 90s - early 00s hot topic culture: jenko jeans, chain wallets, frosted tips and a lot of goth, industrial, and alt-metal/nü-metal music. It's like listening to the primordial soup from where that whole thing came and it's primative in the best way possible.
Just some really good doom metal paired with the most basic and primitive drum machines of the time.
Great comment! Yeah you can hear so many styles blended together on this record, it clearly influenced a lot of bands and genres that would emerge in the following years.
The album Visqueen by the band Unsane is pretty awesome, you might like them.
Ooh that's a new one for me, I'll make sure that it's on my list. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@mollyesanborn There is a wildly underrated hard rock band from Ireland called Therapy? There album Trouble gum was a college music radio classic in the 90's, they got plowed under by grunge but that record is one of my favorites from that time.
@@ghadrackpotato960 Trouble Gum by Therapy? got me into rock music. Unsane is also a cool suggestion! Very underrated band.
Amazing album
I absolutely agree! I've been addicted to this record since filming the reaction.
Please try "God's Country" by Chat Pile !!!!!!
Really liking your channel. Enjoyed your review of Rammstein and Sigur Rós. Only started listening to Jónsi. Have you already listened to Rammstein's Sehnsucht? I mostly like non-English songs but get how that's limiting to how much you can offer in terms of reviewing. However, do have English artist recommendations. How do you receive initial recommendations? I see the poll but wondering if you curate the list from comments or put up an initial poll for ideas.
Thanks so much, really glad that you're enjoying the videos. I have so far only heard Mutter from Rammstein, I may plan on doing some more of their albums in the future. As for suggestions, just leave a comment on any of the videos and I will see them, I have a list going of all of the bands and albums that are recommended by you all. I sometimes do polls in the community tab but not often, for the most part I just go with what seems to be suggested the most in the comments :)
Great album, innovative and influential. I would like to recommend you other equally powerful and important albums: 'The Land of Rape and Honey' by Ministry and 'Umber' by Bitch Magnet.
Absolutely adore this album. Broadrick's an interesting character + a VERY busy one, guy always seems to be doing different projects.
"Like Rats" reminds me of growing up white-trash on a UK council estate (social housing), it sums it up quite well.
Was so into this album as a teen, as an adult still very much so, but it doesn't always take me to a "good place", but the fierceness of it, the biting anger makes a lot of other "heavy" bands seem like absolute lightweights.
Justin (main vocal)'s been pretty open about his struggles with mental health, dude's pretty inspirational and it's great to see them back to releasing music.
You might well enjoy Jesu - also Justin's project, they're much more on that floaty, spacey, spacious vibe.
Worth mentioning, I'm pretty sure that vocal sample at the start of the track "Streetcleaner" is Peter Sutfliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper. He was nicknamed The Streetcleaner by the Yorkshire Police Force as the detectives thought he was "taking out the trash" :/
"Tiny Tears" - as in weeping/crying - I like to think of this as the evil flipside to Phil Spector - it's a realy Wall of Sound, completely engulfing - great reaction, certainly hope you're well + you "got" the catharsis of what's happening here is excellent. Such an underrated band + special mention to B.C. Green for his ongoing work as the 2nd half of Godflesh.
Thanks for the comment, you make some great points. I'll have to check out more of Justin Broadrick's other projects including Jesu, I'd love to hear them!
hellooo, it's me again... xD Yes, you still haven't listened to Isis, that's okayyy... but actually, Godflesh is a good starting point since it had a strong influence on Isis and.... if you think this was the heaviest album yet, then you might actually start with EARLY Isis stuff... Mosquito Control.. The Red Sea... Celestial... SGNL05... only to then follow their progression into the best and most epic Post-Metal band of all time (imo, but i'm not the only one). Great chance! Another, very dear recommendation would be Killing Joke. THAT is a band that absolutely everybody needs to know, i promise.
Thanks for the suggestions! I've got both ISIS and Killing Joke on my list of bands to check out.
@@mollyesanborn great to hear! Literally.
Yay! You finally listen to Godflesh's Streeetcleaner! I wonder if you listen to their whole discography.
she said she will, her music taste is about to be reborn lol
I'll definitely plan on diving more into Godflesh, I'm excited to hear more of their albums.
Amazing pick and great analysis! Swans have to be up next
Also just fyi the original release closes with Locust Furnace but the bonus tracks are amazing too
Yeah Streetcleaner is an amazing album! I'm so glad to have finally gotten to this one on the channel. I'll definitely try and get to a Swans reaction in the near future as well :)
I've always thought Streetcleaner was a far easier listen than Godflesh's influence, SWANS' COP or FILTH. Good luck with those two albums.
I'll definitely have to delve into Swans at some point... I'm very intrigued to hear them!
I can recommend Godflesh’s fifth album ‘Us & Them’, as well as the album ‘Silver’ by one of Justin Brodericks other projects Jesu.
It’s also be interesting to see you react to Converge’s epic ‘Jane Doe’!!
I'll definitely plan on doing more Godflesh on the channel, and I'd love to hear Jesu as well. And Jane Doe is an absolutely brilliant album! I actually did a Converge discography ranking a while back on the channel if you were interested :)

You’re so freaking pretty! Lol I couldn’t not say it ☺️
Thanks! :)
Hi Molly 🥰
Hey! Thanks for watching :)
The goat returned
Here listening at work. Loving their sound. Working on a thorny project. I feel like I'm the locust in that cocoon being assaulted. Or protected with that sound wall. Trying to decide where they fit between/above/around Godsmack or Fleshwater😆
You explained the sound of this record really well, listening to Streetcleaner I couldn't tell if it felt like I was being attacked or calmed by the heaviness. Weirdly kinda both at the same time... there's something oddly relaxing about this style of music, at least to my ears. I'm glad you're enjoying Godflesh too!
PROWLER IN THE YARD (2001)- PIG DESTROYER
React to Elysia-Lion Of Judas (2008) and For The Fallen Dreams- Relentless (2009).
Pig Destroyer-Prowler In The Yard (2001)
Thanks for the suggestions! :)
you should check mad seasons-above, its a band from the alice in chains vocalist alice in chains
I've got Mad Season on my list! I can't wait to hear their music :)
If you enjoy how heavy this album is. I HIGHLY recommend the album Obzen by the band Meshuggah.
First time I listened I was genuinely in Awe
Great suggestion, I will absolutely consider doing a video for that album soon! Meshuggah is a band I am not familiar with but a lot of people have suggested them to me so I'd love to take the plunge into their discography as well.
Hey Molly you should check out The album a different kind of pain by cold is very good 👍 ❤
Thanks for the album suggestion! I'll be sure that it's on my list.
Really need to work on getting a reaction to Atum. There's gold in that album.
Noted, I'll definitely have to plan for some more Smashing Pumpkins in the future :)
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
deez mfs sound crazy
Godless never misses- great album
Loved every second of this thing... Godflesh are amazing! 🔥
@@mollyesanborn I'd love to see them live. Droning dark industrial stuff is my fav
Me too!!! I'll definitely keep an eye on their touring schedule. Droning dark industrial is my fave as well :)
@mollyesanborn I just saw Gary Numan and Front Line Assembly open for Ministry, and Ministry will be in Fort Worth in Sept so I plan on going back to see them again.
Ooh nice, have fun! Ministry is another band I'd love to see live as well.
Techno Animal Re-Entry
Their album selfless is great, sometimes it gets overlooked but its pure sludge
I'm excited to give that album a listen as well!
If you think it can't get filthier than this, the record before Streetcleaner (self-titled) was released in 1988 and it is less polished production wise which gives it more raw and dirty sound, with heavier bass and louder drum machine sound, probably the sickest introduction ever! (I hope what i said was not a spoiler 😭)
I was thinking Streetcleaner was their debut album, I wasn't aware of their self-titled. I'll definitely have to give it a listen!
@@mollyesanborn it is an EP actually, Streetcleaner is indeed their debut Album
I love albums recorded in bathrooms! 🔥
if you haven't listen to bleach or insecticide by nirvana i would love to see you listen to them
I never quite managed to get into this album. But Christbait Rising always gets me hella hyped. Bleed Dry Mankiiiiiiind.
Godflesh is very experimental with their sound and it took me some time to get into them
Yeah, Christbait Rising is such an incredible song!
Satellites I know your up there somewhere
Are willing to listen to the band Nonpoint?
I'll make sure that Nonpoint is on my list to check out! :)
@@mollyesanborn beautiful!
One of the most hateful and misanthropic albums I've ever heard.. Rolling Stones placed this album in top 100 best metal albums of all time, kirk hammett from Metallica, and Phil Anselmo from Pantera, Mike Patton from Faith No More are all big fans. Every single Godflesh album sounds different from one another, but they all have that dense Godflesh signature,
I absolutely loved this album, something about the oppressive heaviness of its sound I find oddly relaxing when I listen to it. I'll certainly be doing more of Godflesh's albums here on the channel, I can't wait to check out more of their music! They're quickly becoming one of my favorite bands, I love their style of music so much.
@@mollyesanbornI first discovered this album back in the 90s from listening to Monday Night Mayhem on WSOU, the radio station of Seton Hall University in New Jersey. It would start at 11pm and go until 2am so I totally get the relaxing aspect of it. Bonus being I’d have freshly taped Godflesh (and others) songs to listen to on the school bus a few hours later. Ah the good old days.
@@chimpinaneckbrace that's awesome... this is the perfect album to listen to during that time of night.
Huh? not really f th bi s 😢 why not you?
I resurrected this same album from my collection just a week ago, coincidence!
That's great timing! Yeah this album is amazing, I'm so glad that I've finally taken the deep dive into Godflesh here on the channel.
