I have never listened to Godflesh before. I had heard the name a couple of times, so I randomly decided to click on this performance today and HOLY SHIT.....I am not sure I have even the right words to describe this and how I need this band in my life now forever.
This was my christmas gift to my mom. Godflesh is one of the many bands that she has introduced me to. We were both blown away. She was so stoked to stand by the stage and to hear Streetcleaner and I Me Mine live, it made me so happy to see her that happy. I’m glad that I can connect with her through music.
i lost my mind when at the los angeles show last year i head the filtered breakbeat of "i, me, mine" it was a moment i've waited for since highschool. i felt like i'd been transported out of my body, it was absolutely surreal. i was so lucky to meet them after the show. i explained to them how that opening track of "us and them" and the entire album was the reason i bought my first drum machine. he said they hadn't played it in 20yrs til that night and i assured him they chose the best night to bring it back. my heart fucking sank when that filtered breakbeat started under the feedback dissonance. very few live show moments have ever compared to this, in fact probably none besides the very first seconds of "pinion" into "somewhat damaged" performed entirely behind the curtain showing silhouettes only, at my first nine inch nails show on the fragility 2.0 tour. i had accepted that i'd never hear "i, me, mine" live. i'm so grateful they have decided to resurrect it. it's hands down my fav track of godflesh and is to blame for my entire taste and way of thinking in my own work for years, as it prompted me to get a drum machine. it's awesome when i hear of anyone equally excited by that track or album. "us and them" + "world lit" are my two top albums, both are relatively unpopular in the godlfeshverse.
In 1989, at the record store I happened upon the Streetcleaner CD and bought it because some record store employee had put a label on it which said "This will flay the skin off your back". Thank you, record store employee. Thank you.
This sounds amazing. Excelent job but you cant imagine how this guys sounded live. Pure loudness and the bass hits you in the chest all the time. Seen Godflesh playing live its a MUST.
Bought Streetcleaner when it was released in 89. Listened countless times. My music tastes have changed now I'm 50. But listened again recently realised age is just a number. This album was and still is a masterpiece. Pure brilliance..
Bro I’m almost 48. I feel yah Remember the record stores and the clank has you moved through the stack. Stare at the inlay read every word over and over while the stereo blasts.

UNFUCKINGBELIEVABALLZ! OMG, the sound quality, the set, I'm not even watching the video at this point (may check it out in the future). This is a gift from heckvan
Swans was hugely important to these guys. Big Black was an influence as well, but even more so, they've been very open about how their drums and rhythms are based on 80s hip-hop, RUN DMC and Public Enemy and such. They're such a wonderful mishmash of noise
I started listening to GoDflesH in 1990. They remain the best band from old Earache roster. These vocals and the effects on them truly emphasize the sheer extremity of the emotions behind the music. Ever moving forward into that stark future envisioned in decades past.💀🎧
Действительно,это индастриал такой каким должен быть. Два человека создают нам потрясающие звуковые монументы, из которых выстроено апокалиптическое будущее Земли.
Saw Godflesh live for the first time a few months back in Dublin absolutely blew my mind it was like an out of body experience i hope they come back soon beyond amazing.
i've commented this twice in replies to comments already, but in a brief way [los angeles show last year]: the filtered amen breakbeat of "i, me, mine" began, my heart sank and i was transported out of my body. where i was taken felt like the moment i had first heard it, which prompted me to buy my first drum machine and also imagine what it would feel like to experience this track live. 20 something yrs later i had accepted i'd never hear it, so it caught me off guard. it was like being in the moment of hearing it first time, imagining what it would feel like to be in a club with them performing it, and that imagined hope being flawlessly mirrored and in that way it was like experiencing a past memory, but from the future, but in the present. timeless and priceless. met them afterwards, incredibly kind. explaining that i blame that song for buying my drum machine and they said they hadn't played it in 20yrs. which just emphasized this whole time warp feeling. it was magnificent. indeed an out of body experience.
Justin and Benny in peak form this evening. Sound system sounds excellent. Can't imagine what it felt like on the floor being this ethereal in a vid. 🤘🤘
I've been to 4 different Godflesh shows and this one was another great one. What felt special, was that Justin seemed less anxious than before and more relaxed. Well the music doesn't come from that place, but he still delivered with G.C. I also liked how the setlist was no full on crowd pleaser set. But if I get to see them another time, I wish I could hear something from song of Love and hate and/or Hymns.
my heart sank when it started at the los angeles show. it's the song i blame for buying my first drum machine. met them both after, told them that. said it was first time played in 20yrs. it was surreal, out of body experience for me. transported me to some other place. it was like existing in a future memory from the past. like as if i was hearing it for the first time and imagining what it would feel like live, but actually experiencing that, in real time. i think because it mirrored exactly what i had for 20+ yrs hoped it would feel like. afterwards it was like this inertia of a rollercoaster and this inner urge to tell everyone you've ever talked to about godflesh to go ride the ride. it was better than any drug high could ever be and that is how it should be.
@@lovedeathdisco I can only fantasize about living that moment that you've described. I've never been able to experience them live at all yet. The ONE band left that I'm dying to see live. I' m so happy that Justin is playing that song live. In my own mind, I think it's a huge deal that he's accepting those songs that he so vehemently showed so much contempt for.
@@SubharmonicCity i recently heard that at some point he was like well i was being hard on myself and us and them is actually better than i gave it credit for, or something to that effect. i hope you'll catch them this tour! go sell your old clothes and get a ticket 🤘🏼
This band has never left more room for mistakes and chaos than on these new albums ...as long as the bass and drum machine are razor sharp ...the noiser, more chaotic the better !
Holy Santa Claus shit!!! This is gotta be my favorite concert footage of GODFLESH. Perfect capture to the crushing sounds. Childhood favorite band. Been listening since street cleaner. 🤘🏻
still the fucking kings! A coworker handed me a cassette of Streetcleaner in '97, and life was never the same. They are greying and in their mid-50's but playing like it's 1988.
I know , I heard street cleaner when it first came out at the end of the eighties…. As a thrash/ grind head I didn’t know what to make of it then, it was too far ahead of its time maybe but I got into them a few years later! Heaviest most extreme band ever in my opinion
I read an interview with Broadrick recently and he mentions how they never play stuff off Us and Them because it's his least favourite work he's ever done, finds its "cringey" apparently but seeing I, me, mine appear on recent setlists of theirs gives me hope more songs off that record will appear live, not to mention they have got the loudest best sound I've seen from a heavy band, nobody comes close to live flesh

Brilliant band, all the better live, whenever they play live near you, fucking go dude, you will not be disappointed
Lots of excellent side projects as well
Do check out Dead World and Sonic Violence if you like this.

G.C. Green is truly an underrated Metal bassist. His bass sound and groove are killer!
GC Green is my argument (along with Bootsy Collins and "Family Man" Barrett) why you don't need more than 4 strings to be heavy
In my house he is a total legend.
He's the reason I play bass
My favourite Metal bassist
For those who didn't know: the Suicide intro might be a wink to their first ever show having been as openers for Suicide.
Wow, that is rad. I had no idea. Thanks for sharing
I realised about Suicide just as I pressed play. You sure about that first gig data? Amazed I know now about this
Yep, both members and Regis of British Murder Boys have mentioned it.
@@awrygargoyle Regis posted a show flyer for it on instagram and Broadrick shared it and told the story.

This audio is AMAZING. Gold medal to the engineer and mixer
No Shit!!
No gold medal for the cameraman though...
@@karstenstier1539 I think it looks great
Benny being just Benny a total legend ( that Bass brings a tear to my eyes)

Yes!
Sweetest riffs of my childhood 😮
where is that from cant find it anywhere
@@danielmoraes743It's a song called Frankie Teardrop by a band called Suicide.
Nah it’s a song called Che.
This band is beyond perfect.
The way that the guitars move into those harmonies on Spite never ceases to make the hairs on my nodding neck to stand up!
And if haven't listened to Jesu, I think you should ✨

OMG, the sound quality, the set, I'm not even watching the video at this point (may check it out in the future). This is a gift from heckvan
Saw them in Soundwave 2015 in Sydney. Wish they'd come to Australia again!
i'm stunned. all of my gratitude for everyone involved with this. you're loved
As an older listener, I'm hearing elements of Big Black, early Swans and My Bloody Valentine. A great combination.
Swans was hugely important to these guys. Big Black was an influence as well, but even more so, they've been very open about how their drums and rhythms are based on 80s hip-hop, RUN DMC and Public Enemy and such. They're such a wonderful mishmash of noise
Godflesh also cited Killing Joke, early industrial like SPK, Throbbing Gristle, Whitehouse. some Black Sabbath as influence
And Buddy Holly too. Can you hear it? :D
I hear a lot of Tom Warrior in the guitar work
@@bigstar5931 Yes, they cited Celtic Frost too as one of their main influences.
Listening to Godflesh since 1992. Finally going to see them later this year. Great show!
you will not be disappointed. happy for you 🤘🏼
I started listening to GoDflesH in 1990. They remain the best band from old Earache roster. These vocals and the effects on them truly emphasize the sheer extremity of the emotions behind the music. Ever moving forward into that stark future envisioned in decades past.💀🎧
I love the down-tuned 8-string guitar and distorted bass Godflesh sound. Fave album is ‘A World Lit Only by b Fire’.
Действительно,это индастриал такой каким должен быть. Два человека создают нам потрясающие звуковые монументы, из которых выстроено апокалиптическое будущее Земли.
чумовой лайв однозначно!
Godflesh is one of a kind and I LOVE THEM.
Best band in the world.
UNIVERSE!!!
we are GOG in flesh! all of us! pure soul eternal dynamic energy🎉

saw these guys back in the early 90's they were an opener for GWAR... good times.
was at this show it was so powerful, went right through you ! hail godflesh
Thank you for the soundflash, this is mindblowing!🖤
Godflesh the best!
That tiny tears riff
五臓六腑に沁みわたる
You know something is first class when you begin with an intro with Suicide
Fantastic production and quality. Kiitos!
FUCK LAND LORD IS RUTHLESS THOSE GUITARS , BASS AND BREAKBEAT SLAYS EVERYTHING!
Thank you Godflesh. Cardthartic release. Bleakly uplighting. Concrete laying bass genius.
15:45 industrial metal + DnB = absolutely killer track
Also 51:42 having what appears to be a simple minor sludge metal riff + industrial metal
This band is awesome
I've been fortunate enough to see Godflesh twice in concert. I wish I could've been at the show in the video!
same and same 🙌🏼
Wauuuu años que no sabía de godflesh, sonido intacto, que recuerdos de principios de los 90' larga vida al noise.🤘🎸💪🇨🇱
This was one of the best live performances I've ever seen, and it makes me excited for their new future.

both of those albums are underappreciated masterpieces 🙌🏼
@@lovedeathdiscoThey aren't easy records to get into, but are fantastic.
I had no idea they were still together or touring. This makes me happy!! So much nostalgia!
Ace! Sounds fantastic. So, so funky. So punishing. Godflesh.
Justin is a miracle! What is he touching is PURE gold! One of the finest talents of our generation!
信じられねー。年を重ねるごとにどんどん良くなっていってるじゃん！末長く続けてくれることを願う。ファーストアルバムの曲をやってくれるのは嬉しいね！
Thank you for the upload

my heart sank when it started at the los angeles show. it's the song i blame for buying my first drum machine. met them both after, told them that. said it was first time played in 20yrs. it was surreal, out of body experience for me. transported me to some other place. it was like existing in a future memory from the past. like as if i was hearing it for the first time and imagining what it would feel like live, but actually experiencing that, in real time. i think because it mirrored exactly what i had for 20+ yrs hoped it would feel like. afterwards it was like this inertia of a rollercoaster and this inner urge to tell everyone you've ever talked to about godflesh to go ride the ride. it was better than any drug high could ever be and that is how it should be.

sick show
The sheer headbanging of the crowd during “I, Me, Mine” when I saw them live was just cathartic. This setlist was good.
M A S S I V E
Come to Melbourne Australia please. PRETTY PLEASE
"I, me, mine" live sounds insane! And obviously the whole set is amazing. Thanks JKB for everything ♥
Also check out his God side project. Love his guitar work
Just any Broderick project is gold but God especially.
The sound is so goooood! Godflesh’s atmosphere is a biomechanical torture chamber!
I saw them live once, amazing performance, it was mind blowing. If you have the chance to see them live just go.
My first time listening to this band. It's a big surprise.
Epic Still Amazing after all this time !!!
This band has never left more room for mistakes and chaos than on these new albums ...as long as the bass and drum machine are razor sharp ...the noiser, more chaotic the better !
Toujours aussi bon....
Long live the flesh!
First saw them in 1992. They have only evolved. This is fantastic.
Nothing to see here...just a couple of GOATs at work!!!! 🤘🐐
Holy Santa Claus shit!!! This is gotta be my favorite concert footage of GODFLESH. Perfect capture to the crushing sounds. Childhood favorite band. Been listening since street cleaner. 🤘🏻
Best Industrial Band - pure liquid lead, love it
This randomly came up in my feed, and I must say... Thank you Algorithm. Good stuff and I'll be looking into more Godflesh tunes in the future.
I can’t die until I’ve seen these guys, and when I do, I may just find what I’m looking for
C'est de l'Art.
Bäng and back in 96 where I saw them last time live. 🎉❤
BEST GIG, BEST SOUND !!!! GREAT!!!!
Kudos to Eppu Helle (live mix) 👍 Godflesh wall of sound🔥
Master!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Absolutely amazing. i wanted to be there for this but life got in the way.
still the fucking kings! A coworker handed me a cassette of Streetcleaner in '97, and life was never the same. They are greying and in their mid-50's but playing like it's 1988.
Fantastic !
So amazing ! !
superb. thanks.
Hail the Flesh…
i need more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Epic
The Largest. True metal industrial.
this shit made my day. THANK YOU!!!!!!🔥🖤
Wow they’re still around. I remember buying their CD in 1992
