This dub album by Godflesh is a real treat to old fans and new fans of the band. They set out in transformation with such bleak and unexpected sounds they make on these dub tracks. The music has a real kick to it and Justin’s vocals are just as good to accompany these anthems of twisted machinery. Bass driven by Benny and humongous production value to it all. I really enjoy the soundscape they flawlessly capture for the listener by providing the most unique sound of any other genre that it is placed in. Which may be industrial but it is a lot more than just that. It is droning, dark & metal enough for me. It has a very strong drawing power and cannot be more difficult to get a sense of what direction they may be taking us. You get a real good feel for what they do and what they’re going through. It can also make you wonder how much they have done to make the songs mixed this way standout the way they do. Colliding and towering, Godflesh always puts out albums you can dive into and feel like you’re being introduced to a certain degree of masterful art that stretches open the imagination. I would have to say my favorite track is Towers. This album has already been out for 10 years but this dub version definitely brings something different to the table. If you are a fan of Godflesh check this one out! -Daniel Ryan
