Seminal Grind

"Godflesh is among my favorite bands. Thus, it should come as no surprise that the band that would become Godflesh, Fall of Because, would also rank very highly. That aside, even if there never were a Godflesh, this seminal album would stand alone in the whole of recorded music. Even considering the extremes to which the music and lyrics go, it nevertheless maintains what all great rock albums have in common-a firm understanding of, and connection to, the blues. If you don't take my word for it, just consider the humble beginnings and inspiration for some other bands you may have heard of; Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and that other outfit, The Beatles."
