GODFLESH - A World Lit Only By Fire - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

Godflesh returned. They returned with a huge fat snake, lazily moving the body through sewage, chasing whole hordes of dirty, shabby rats in front of him. The monstrous shepherd and his devilish herd ... returned to declare the industrial revolution unfinished, and flimsy human flesh - still endlessly far from divine perfection. And they will improve it, according to their understanding, for a whole hour, or even longer-if they are lucky to snatch a version with bonus tracks (Dub-Remixes of compositions from the main program).

And if from Justin Brodrik you stubbornly expected the new "StreetCleaner" ... Well, you practically waited. Thirteen years of silence filled the godflesh brain (hardly this mechanical monster has a soul) long forgotten images, from rooms with the best views of the apocalypse.

“The world covered only with fire” is the book of the American historian William Manchester, dedicated to the Middle Ages and gives them as unsightly as possible: ten centuries of the stagnation of mankind, saturated with blood, mucus and stinking rot; Inspired by the endless carousel of violence under the gaze of the Christian church. And I would decide to say that the spirit and atmosphere of a literary work in this album managed to convey almost perfectly, if not for one important "but". The same "StreetCleaner" was, in fact, its release is much more unsightly, barbaric, really medieval. In the current company, the eight -string guitar of Brodrik thinks more modernly, and plays drivers. "A World Lit Only by Fire" a little cleaner, a little faster, a little more energetic than the legendary predecessor. And, of course, it is not at all so shocking. Although the bolts and nuts in the filling remained approximately the same: measured and extremely rough riffs, rustling drums, stupefying dense bass, an oral hardcore in the role of vocal parties and not the slightest attempts of melodic decoration. The middle of the release, of course, issues a gang in the updated Godflesh, ready at least for minimal compromises: we mention the Bashkotryas hit "Curse US All", the brutal rock-roller "Carrion" and "Purely vote" "Imperator", which vividly recalled something From Fear Factory. But the beginning and final part of the release, of course, are merciless in the best traditions. Almost drowned "Towers of Emptiness" can cause quite tangible, physical pain - were the British in the early nineties not like things? And the impact of the universal recycling of consciousness “Forgive Oour Fathers” will survive at all ... Perhaps we were still forced to stay as one of those sinners whose bodies, ascended over the armfuls of brushwood, covered the world for a few moments. Well, here is the final triumph, finally convincing the importance and need of this reunion even a few surviving heretics, which only remains to pray not to turn into screaming torches the next time.
