Godflesh returns after a nearly six-year hiatus, following up 2017's Post Self with a brand new one, Purge. It's something of a revisiting of the same concepts explored in the duo's 1992 album Pure: a recent interview with founding member Justin Broadrick reveals he's a very emotional character, having dealt with issues such as diagnosed autism and PTSD. The title Purge is apt, then, alluding to its hellish feudal qualities (and clearly, the righteous ousting of them). Each track segues through reams of noise, experimental hip-hop and guitar riff bombast as ever, all while grasping after fearsome themes of paternalism and monarchy.
