A craftman's touch / 4
This is an U.S.-only box set, compiling the "Selfless" album and its two accompanying EP releases "Merciless" and "Crush my soul". All these three items are sold separately in Europe, so I think it's pretty good value for money. Well, the 79-minute "Selfless" really behaves like a major label debut; the sound is clearer and more polished than on other Godflesh albums, and Justin's vocals are fairly discernible. Godflesh still doesn't come close to pop music, but "Xnoybis" and the surprisingly danceable, fluid "Crush my soul" have catchy melodies and hooks. "Black boned angel" is a slow, pretty number, one of GF's very few ballads. Unfortunately, the even-handed production makes the other tracks sound very similar. There's isn't much variation here, and songs like "Body dome light" are essentially rote music with standard guitar riffs and drum machines. The nightmarish "Go spread your wings" contains elements that remind me of Justin's solo project Final. There's much to discover here, with detuned pianos, droning ambient noises, and metallic scratches, but it's hardly accessible and somewhat uncohesive.

"Merciless" is a more experimental and varied affair, featuring four very good songs. Guitar combos rarely get better than on the intense "Flowers". Here, Robert Hampson's shrill lead guitar plays over grinding rhythm riffs. The title track and "Blind" are moody and sticky, while "Unworthy" is filled with layers of heavily distorted guitars. The 17 1/2-minute mix of "Crush my soul" and the 15-minute version of "Xnoybis" are a bit drawn-out and repetitive, adding no new aspects to the original songs. Overall, this box set may represent something like "Godflesh light", but those who have never heard the band before will be fascinated by this intricately detailed and powerful music.
Song "Pure"
Deny, Your disease
Isolate, Pure

Pure, By yourself
I'm so impressed, Pure
