Industrial metal band Godflesh has revealed their final album, titled Decay, scheduled for release on September 25th through Relapse Records. The innovative five-minute lead single "Living/Ending" was made available ahead of the album's debut. The album marks the end of Godflesh's ten-year journey, ultimately recorded during the sessions for their 2023 record Purge.
Founding member Justin Broaderick, who recently completed major abdominal surgery, expressed that the physical toll of the surgery, combined with the strain from years of belting out Godflesh's signature intense vocals, influenced the album's raw and challenging nature. "Living/Ending" exudes an urban darkness and despair, blending blistering two-note riffs reminiscent of their debut Streetcleaner with hip-hop influenced programmed drums from Songs of Love and Hate.
The album's tracklist includes: 01. Master and Slave, 02. Living/Ending, 03. Feral Colony, 04. Fear of Man, 05. Fodder, and 06. Consume Me.
