Mark Kozelek has delivered a catalog's worth of unexpected covers — most famously dedicating entire albums to covers of Modest Mouse and Bon Scott-era AC/DC, respectively, but he's crafted trademark variations of everything from Wings to Genesis to Ace Frehley to Will Oldham to "Send In The Clowns" — so it's no surprise that his next release , Like Rats , will be a collection of covers of artists including Bad Brains, Sonny & Cher, and the Misfits.

Godflesh was gone, but one of the men behind it, Justin Broadrick, resurrected the sound and infused it into a new band, Jesu. Where Godflesh pummelled the listener with chunky, deep-gouging riffs, Jesu takes on the task by intensifying every riff by simplifying and extending it.

Listen To A 3 Hour Chat with Justin Broadrick

So last week Rob from Metal Injection stopped by the MetalSucks Mansion for a hang sesh, and as we were sitting around, shaving years off of our lives (and that was the first night in a long time when I seriously thought I might die), we decided we needed to listen to something a little on the mellower side.

Jesu - Heart Ache & Dethroned

If music were only the sum of the adjectives generally used to describe it, Jesu-- beautiful, brutal, melodic, metallic, heavy, heavenly-- would probably be my favorite band of all time.

"Following the news that the 2010 edition of Birmingham's acclaimed annual Supersonic Festival will be headlined by Swans, Capsule are hugely excited to announce the second headlining act, Godflesh. Acclaimed by many as founders of the industrial metal movement, Godflesh will be returning to their Birmingham roots to play the band's first UK show in over 10 years. Featuring band members Justin Broadrick (ex-Napalm Death and Head of David) and Benny Green (ex-Fall of Because), [they] will be bringing their crushing, apocalyptic sound back home to Birmingham in only their second show since they disbanded in 2002.
