SAD NEWS


From godflesh.com

[28th April] – Late Update – Confirmed News

“If the tour cancellation wasn’t enough, I am now able to confirm the following bad news that’s been
kicking around…

Godflesh Is No More

Over, finished, done, gone, out…

    Justin suffered a nervous breakdown prior to boarding his flight to the US.

Unable to make the trip, nevermind perform a 2 month long tour, Justin
has decided to call it quits. Godflesh is done for.

    How this affects other projects, tours and recordings is not known. It seems likely
that everything will be shelved until a later date. Again, this is official
and confirms some of the rumors floating around.


    As always, our thoughts are with Justin and we all hope for a swift recovery.”
