Relapse Records will be reissuing and remastering GODFLESH’s extremely rare Messiah EP on April 1st.

1. Messiah
2. Wilderness Of Mirrors
3. Sungod
4. Scapegoat
5. Messiah Dub
6. Wilderness Of Mirrors Dub
7. Sungod Dub
8. Scapegoat Dub
GODFLESH mainman, Justin Broadrick, has been busy since the demise of GODFLESH. His new band, JESU, have completed the initial stage of basic recordings for their first album. JESU also features Ted Parsons (ex-GODFLESH, ex-THE SWANS, ex-PRONG), Paul Neville (ex-GODFLESH, ex-FALL OF BECAUSE, ex-CABLE REGIME), and Dermot Dalton (ex-CABLE REGIME).
In the realm of electronic music, Justin has been quite busy with various projects. He has recently released a drum and bass 12" single under the guise of TECH LEVEL 2 through Teknological Records. A second single is currently in the works.
Finally Justin and cohort Kevin Martin have completed THE CURSE OF THE GOLDEN VAMPIRE album, Mass Destruction, for Mike Patton’s Ipecac Records. The album will be out in May.
