I was just reading this Bill Laswell interview over on the Godflesh forum when I came across this paragraph…
“But it got a lot more expansive on the third record, Execution Ground…
We went into a whole ambient thing on that one. I think there’s a whole disc that’s just ambient. And the one that Justin and those guys played on…Godflesh was playing in New York somewhere and it was Benny [Green] the bass player, Justin, and I think they were using a drum machine. And for some reason, I was working with the Jungle Brothers. And they were all in the studio, and then the Godflesh people showed up, and it was right in the middle of a Pain Killer session. And that was a pretty unique kind of scene, you know, where you had these kids writing rhymes to this fast music. It was kinda out there for a minute. So I think that’s the day we recorded whatever Justin played on. It was during that time. And then the Jungle Brothers and all the kids from those groups went to see Godflesh play the gig, and they were really into it. So I thought that was a kind of interesting opening which never really totally developed, but it was a nice possibility there for a second.”
AWESOME!!! hahahahaha I’d love to have gone to a Godflesh show with Jungle Brothers and their pals.
