Justin Broadrick (born on 15 August 1969 in Birmingham, England) is a British singer, songwriter, guitarist and drummer. He is best known as a founding member of the band Godflesh, one of the first bands to combine elements of extreme metal and industrial music.

Broadrick was born in the council estates of inner Birmingham.[1] His first musical project was Final. Initially beginning as a punk band (albeit with drum machine) in 1982, he released his first demo at age 11.[2] The project developed to embrace the power electronics subgenre of industrial music in 1983, releasing material on his own Post Mortem Rekordings cassette label. The project was abandoned in July 1985.
Ben Green and Paul Neville founded Fall of Because in 1982 and later asked Justin to play with them. Unlike Napalm Death, Justin played drums and vocals, not guitar. Among the songs written, "Life is Easy", "Mighty Trust Krusher", and "Merciless" existed in primitive forms. They released a demo in 1986 called Extirpate, but dwindled shortly after. In 1999, the Life is Easy record finally came out, which gathered both studio and live material from that time period.
Broadrick was asked by Nicholas Bullen to join Napalm Death as guitarist in July 1985, and appeared on the A-side of the band's debut album, Scum. He played with the group until October 1986 when he was offered a position as drummer of Head of David.
After leaving Head of David in 1988, he began the project Godflesh which went on to record for Earache Records. Godflesh disbanded in 2002 (soon after the departure of fellow founding member G. Christian Green), and Broadrick entered a period of hiatus until his return with the Jesu project. He also revived the Final project at this time.
During his career, Broadrick has maintained a number of temporary side projects, particularly collaborations with Kevin Martin. These include Techno Animal and Curse of the Golden Vampire; Broadrick also worked with Martin's groups God and Ice.
In 2007, Broadrick began to release limited runs of material on his Avalanche Inc. label including new material by the Final project.
He now resides in the quiet countryside town of Abergele, Wales.

So check it.
Back in 1995, prior to partnering into Ninja Tune, I had a really small experimental electronic label : Discreet/Indiscreet.

One of the releases my partner & myself compiled was The Indiscreet Stereo Test record.

It was essentially a loose concept record of having artists interpret a different "phase tone" so we could recreate one of those old audiophile test tone records.

We commissioned tracks from : James Plotkin, Merzbow, KK Null, Lull/Mick Harris, Warren Defever/Princess Dragon Mom, Final/Justin Broadrick, Nick Bullen (Scorn), and more.

Point being that we sold out of the 1000 copies we made years ago. But I just stumbled on a copy on my desk and gave it a listen.

And thought hell... it's not like I'm trying to sell anymore of them...

Avalanche Recordings presents two new and exclusive digital download only LP releases... First up is KRACKHEAD - 'From Hell'. 'From Hell' compiles every track produced from this JKB (as the pseudonym JK Flesh) project, recorded between 1997 and 1999. Included here remastered are the only two tracks that were ever available from this project - 'Cruise Control' from the 'Lo Fibre Companion' compilation on JKB's short lived Lo Fibre label and 'Phaseday' from the 'Future Noir' compilation. Some of the tracks were intended to be released as an EP on the short lived Spite label from Patric Catani (ec80r, Puppetmastaz, etc) but the label folded before release, the rest were tracks intended for the first full length LP 'From Hell', which at one point was discussed for release through Ipecac just before the project was shelved and became absorbed as an inspiration for the JK Flesh and K Mart (Kevin Martin / The Bug) project Curse Of The Golden Vampire specifically the 'Mass Destruction' Ipecac album. 'From Hell' contains nine songs over approx. 48 mins. To buy and to listen to short mid quality MP3 extracts go to the Avalanche Store here. The other new release is from COUNCIL ESTATE ELECTRONICS. Council Estate Electronics is a new project from JKB and Diarmuid Dalton, born from vintage analog only synth and fx improvisations. Project began early 2008 inspired by JKB as he was collecting tracks from old Final cassettes culled from 1983-87 for the forthcoming early Final set. JKB and Diarmuid set about recording long improv sessions using only old analog instruments much like Final did around 1983-87. These sessions are then edited and mixed/produced by JKB. Here is the debut release 'Kitsland', four tracks over approx. 51 mins. Reference points include - Throbbing Gristle, Basic Channel and King Tubby. To buy and to listen to short mid quality MP3 extracts go to the Avalanche Store here.

Opiate Sun
Release Date: October 27th, 2009

Justin Broadrick first emerged as a force in music as part of the band Napalm Death in the mid eighties. He then formed Godflesh which cemented his place in a genre which is variously known as extreme, grindcore or just new metal. There are however, many arrows in Justin Broadrick’s quiver. Over the last twenty years he has maintained a series of projects ranging in musical style from punk to industrial to the layered, melodic atmospherics of his current band, Jesu and it’s newest release, an EP called ‘Opiate Sun’. This ability to step outside the confines of musical convention sets him apart creatively from other writer musicians who have been working in his field over this period. Despite, or perhaps because of this stylistic diversity he has attracted an obsessively loyal fanbase and a reliably positive response from critics. The question is always, How does he sound so light while staying so heavy?

Jesu’s output has been spasmodic but of a uniform high quality. All instruments are played by Justin Broadrick and apart from the occasionally guest vocalist (Jarboe from The Swans) he handles all vocals. Two traditional sequenced albums, ‘Jesu’ in 2004, and ‘Conqueror’ in 2007 plus an album length song, ‘Infinity’, in July 2009 have been intertwined with a number of EPs. In 2008 Jesu issued one EP, ‘Why Are We Not Perfect?’ and contributed to two more split EPs with other bands. ‘Opiate Sun’ is the only Jesu release in 2009 aside from ‘Infinity’.

‘Opiate Sun’ will be released in the US and UK on Mark Kozelek’s Caldo Verde Records home of Mark’s own Sun Kil Moon and other transformative musical endeavors. Mark was captured by the strength of Justin’s performance when he saw him live in San Francisco in 2007. Therefore he was only too happy to help out when the opportunity arose to be involved in this important project.

Justin Broadrick is a native of Birmingham, England and resides in Wales. He has produced or remixed releases by Pantera, Isis, and Pelican. He also runs his own label, Avalanche Inc.

TRACK LISTING:
1. Losing Streak
2. Opiate Sun

En nog een interessant interview om te lezen:

http://www.noisecreep.com(...)iew-with-justin-bro/

quote:

On paper, Greymachine should be great. Justin Broadrick and Aaron Turner are two of the most influential rock musicians today. The former masterminded industrial metal behemoth Godflesh; now he helms shoegazer rock band Jesu. The latter fronts atmospheric metal outfit Isis, perhaps the most imitated metal band today. Greymachine also includes Broadrick collaborators Dave Cochrane (Head of David, Ice) and Diarmuid Dalton (Jesu). Broadrick has said that Greymachine taps into his aggressive side-- welcome news for long-suffering Godflesh fans. Combined with people from Broadrick's musical present and past, such intent raises interesting possibilities.

Unfortunately, Greymachine does not realize them. Contrary to hype, it is not Jesu + Isis. It has none of the pretty melodies of either. In fact, Broadrick's collaborators might as well have been absent. This sounds like a Broadrick project through and through, just not a fully fleshed out one. Songs often start with hoover bass lines-- a throwback to Broadrick's days producing drum 'n' bass 12"s in the 1990s under pseudonyms-- then wander through hazes of slow beats and guitars with loads of effects. The bass lines are bracing enough, but their power dissipates as songs go nowhere. Broadrick's production skills are peerless, and cool noises wind throughout the album. But cool noises do not make for songs. These tracks exhaust their ideas long before their running times, often eight minutes or more. The album feels like a collection of demos-- for a Godflesh remix EP, perhaps, or for Broadrick's earlier beat-oriented projects like Techno Animal or Ice. It was assembled via email, and sounds like it. The title is apt.

Greymachine wastes the talents of Broadrick and Turner. Perhaps it could have been more focused had they sat in the same room and hashed out songs the old-fashioned way. Maybe Turner's melodic sense would have come through. Maybe Broadrick would have worked up actual riffs. The lack of riffing has been his greatest weakness since ending Godflesh. His Jesu and Final projects revolve around chords and melodies and textures. Sometimes these work, but often others do them better. Riffs are distillations of purpose. They occupy the midrange and can almost act like voices. Since Broadrick left riffing behind, his work has felt scattered. It often has mammoth low end, clouds of high end, and emptiness in between.

Okay, if you were in attendance for this then I am sure you are aware of how disappointed we were with what transpired, and we are sure you are / were most likely disappointed too.
I am afraid that it was all utterly beyond our control, we salvaged a performance out of what was a fairly ridiculous set of events. T...he power generator blowing during the set from The Young Gods, on just prior to us, was the catalyst for the ensuing chaos. At one point, performing at all was even in doubt. We had an hour allocated for both soundcheck and stage set up, since there is no soundcheck prior to the start of the festival, unfortunately, something that we really did need, but we were having to put our trust in the one hour allocated before performance, this one hour then became 20 short and extremely stressful minutes, with the stage management proclaiming that we must start immediately without any check of the sound, disastrous for us - additionally, the backline they hired in for us was not entirely correct or had faults with it, Ben's bass rig specifically, my guitar amp was not right either, the monitors were awful without the time for us to correct them sufficiently, resulting in not hearing virtually any of the Machine in the monitors for nearly all of our opener 'Like Rats', the DVD machine for our films was also somewhat faulty. In short, this was an absolute frustrating catalogue of disasters, presenting the band in, for us, one of the worst ways imaginable. We do though consider that we somewhat forged a performance out of a significantly bad situation.
We played 40 of our intended 60 minutes ; quite literally onstage I managed to turn 30 minutes into 40 due to ongoing arguments, during our set, with the stage management.
We're really sorry to everyone concerned that all this happened and hopefully this will all be rectified at the forthcoming GODFLESH performance at the Supersonic Festival, details below, for those who can make it, of course.

Gelukkig zit het sfeertje van het origineel er nog steeds goed in, het is niet zo dat ineens een over the top moddervette productie is geworden. De bonus-cd is overigens ook wel leuk, maar dat lijkt me alleen voor de echte Godflesh fans een mooie toevoeging (maar dat is eigenlijk altijd wel zo met van die bonus-cd's met remixes enzo).

quote:

Al sinds de jaren ’60 is het duidelijk dat het progressieve en experimentele muziekgenre vaak op het Britse vasteland tot stand komt. Van The Beatles destijds, evolueerden we de laatste twee decennia naar experimentele rock/metal met wat meer ambient/shoegaze/postrock stijlingrediënten om uiteindelijk te belanden bij bands als My Bloody Valentine begin jaren ’90 en Mogwai en Porcupine Tree in het heden. De gloednieuwe band Iroha volgt geen van deze trendsetters maar bouwt verder op de eigen invulling die Andy Swan, de maker van dit alles, in het verleden reeds gaf aan het begrip Progressive Metal. We kennen hem immers al uit de band Final en hij kiest er vanaf heden ook voor om binnen zijn live-bezetting samen te werken met leden uit Jesu en Scorn.

Deze eerste full-length van de band is voorzien van een erg verzorgde uitgave waar naast het eigenlijke geproduceerde plaatje nog een extra geremixte versie werd gebracht door bevriende bands zoals ondermeer Black Galaxy en Jesu. Dhr. Swan heeft er duidelijk zijn werk van gemaakt bij de opnames en productie en alles tot in de puntjes verfijnd, zelfs de vinyl versies van dit album zijn goudkleurig verkrijgbaar. De stijl van Iroha doet het meeste denken aan het vroegere werk van Jesu, meerbepaald het werk dat op hun eerste full-length en hun daaropvolgende EP Silver te vinden was. Ondanks de link naar de muziek van Jesu doet Andy zijn eigen ding, en dat ding mag er best wezen! Gooi je bij deze maar gezellig in de zetel, sluit de ogen en verlies jezelf in een pracht van een wegdroomschijf. De nummers zijn opgebouwd uit imposante gitaarlijnen op een repetitief drumritme die op zich geen climax opbouwen maar net die typische, constante atmosfeer van zweverigheid creëeren. Toegegeven is dit plaatje, met slechts hier en daar wat verandering in ritme en enorm lange herhalingen, wel iets waar je als luisteraar voor in de mood moet zijn. Vreemde eend in de bijt is alvast het nummer Iroha: de bandnaam verwijst naar een Japans gedicht en uiteraard moet er weer een iets te letterlijke verwijzing op dit debuut gemaakt worden. De Japanse vrouwenecho’s op dit nummer kunnen me echt gestolen worden en vormen een immense breuk met de dromerige, rustgevende stem doorheen de rest van de nummers.

Al bij al toch eentje om niet te missen! Soms is het nodig om even de idee van technische opbouw, kracht of agressie in nummers los te laten en jezelf te verliezen in een meesterlijk geheel van progressieve tripmetal. Voor fans van het oudere werk van Jesu is dit een must; aan hen die rillen bij het lezen van het woord ambient in combinatie met progressive wil ik alvast meegeven dat dit project er duidelijk in slaagt om een evenwichtige en slepende combinatie van beide te brengen, al zal het geheel bij menig luisteraar monotoon in de oren klinken na enkele nummers.

Godflesh, Head of David, Napalm Death, Techno Animal, Jesu, Greymachine, Palesketcher – just some of the projects from the insanely prolific Justin Broadrick, who in his new relationship with 3by3, raises his Techno Animal moniker JK Flesh from the dead for its debut full-length outing, to once again prove his mastery of all things brutal.

Posthuman certainly resembles the darker side of Broadrick's sound (circa Techno Animal, Godflesh and Greymachine) but simultaneously contextualises this within the unfamiliar turf of the post-dubstep/industrial canon pushed by 3by3, finding a fitting home in the process.

The result is an album of soul-crushingly dark beats and bass, layered with Broadrick's inimitable guitar and vocal fuzz, providing a stark contrast to 2010’s Palesketcher output, that will resonate with fans of Godflesh and the post-dubstep landscape alike.

Recorded in Broadrick’s newly built studio in the secluded countryside of Northern Wales, Posthuman’s clear reference to his upbringing in the harsh industrial sprawl of Birmingham would at first seem ironic. However, given his recent collaborations with Techno Animal co-conspirator and long-time collaborator Kevin Martin (The Bug/King Midas Sound), it would seem Broadrick is once again happy to explore his more depraved sonic tendencies.

Across nine monolithic slabs of pure carnage, JK Flesh is established as a project in its own right; showcasing a clear but dynamic sound that flows seamlessly from the pumping basslines of Earthmover, through the cavernous drone of Underfoot to the melodic, live musicianship of Walk Away, all via the balls-out distortion of Punchdrunk.

JK Flesh arrives in 2012 to show how proper dark side pressure is done – with authenticity and regard.

In case you not seen it here is Justins response on Facebook to someone(Steibel) who said Godflesh are milking their fans by these recent shows by only playing old material and that they would be better to write new stuff.
Here is what he said;
Justin K Broadrick Okay, Stiebel, well at the very least you are genuine; I was concerned that you may simply be someone affected by another's opinion, whereas you are sincerely a follower of the band and it's output. Which is chiefly the reason why I considered it appropriate to address your comments, and the fact that the comments, albeit negative, are on my events page on my Facebook page, I would usually delete such comments due to the fact that I do not wish to entertain any 'internet slanging matches' between anyone on my pages, it makes me question why I post and answer queries, etc in the first place, since I despise that area of the internet....The are are other followers of Godflesh who also hold your opinion, not many from what I am aware, but there are, and although I disagree with your assumptions as to the motivation behind our choices of live environments, I respect that some will hold this opinion. I am defensive regarding our decisions, sometimes publicly - being seen as fleecing our audience is not how we wish to be perceived. To be absolutely honest here, and I will make no apologies to anyone for this statement - we spent, quite literally, as Godflesh, playing every toilet imaginable between 1988 and 2001, yes, sometimes there were bigger venues, of course, especially as we increased in size, or, supported 'large' more well known acts, but mostly, and earlier in our career they were not, and we'd virtually play for free; Ben and I lived in one room for almost 2 years whilst establishing Godflesh, and often stole food to survive, whilst existing on the English 'dole' system. After such an existence, once our music earned us some money, one can only imagine that we were shocked that anything could be earned from our music...BTW - we still earn no money from our back catalogue whatsoever, due to being naive and signing literally our lives away with Earache Records, nor will we ever see any money from our back catalogue, fact, back when we existed, and the industry was somewhat buoyant, money was earnt from advances, advances for royalties. So, finally, and ironically, since we reformed, we are able to earn some money from Godflesh, and do exactly what we want, we're finally empowered...oddly, and contradict your assumption of that playing an older record can surely not be remotely creative, on the contrary, revisiting older records is actually revitalising, and somewhat rejuvenating musically; having not played the material for so many years, I realise now what made these records 'tick', and they are inspiring, directly, the newer material. I assume some may be wondering reading this, why I feel the need to address this all so deeply, but music, quite clearly, is indeed my life, to be accused of doing things musically that I have no deep or meaningful connection to is insulting, I don't do anything I don't feel - I split Godflesh on the day of an two month American tour, for example, which cost me a horrendous loss of money, besides the loss of many personal things in my life, and I did this because I simply did not want to do it anymore; the safe option wasn't an option, and it virtually cost me two years of my life. Festivals, selfishly, are a context of performing without having to tour a country in any explicit way - I say selfish, because yes, this choice is made under the assumption (or hope!) that followers of the band will go to said festival if they wish to see the band enough, coupled with the assumption that the festival will hopefully feature other bands people would wish to see too, selfish again, because we do not wish, at our ages (early and late forties), and with our existing commitments (me with my first child, who's development and life I wish to be a part of on an daily basis), Ben has a full time work commitment which he could not afford to finish to play live in Godflesh on an full time basis, nor would he want to, he left the band originally because the existence of a touring musician is not something he wished to pursue for all his life! Contrary to what seems to be perceived generally, touring is actually far from glamorous, unless of course one is Metallica, Coldplay, U2, etc etc...this fact is more than well documented amongst many biographies, etc, additionally, I myself, am first and foremost a studio musician / producer, I realised with some of the last jesu tours in 2007, that all this touring is entirely anti - creativity, playing the same songs night after night, for months and months, there is your perfect example of anti-creativity, not revisiting and playing an album one made 20 years ago, once! Okay! I have made here a rather elaborate, and albeit defensive answer to the above accusations, dramatic? yes! I take such accusations personally, my music / art is personal to me, so I see such accusation as personal, and they demand a response, but this is not a personal defence against you, Steibel, but this rather long winded answer is generally for those who have been questioning the motivation behind the reformation of Godflesh, and in my opinion, what I have wrote does not even vaguely touch upon how loaded this subject is, but I hope I have at least clarified, to those who question us, you included, why. Some will say I do not have to validate our current existence, unfortunately, for me, I feel I do, I may not change any minds, but at least make one question, as I do myself, on an hour to hour basis!
