Godflesh have detailed their first new album in six years. The English industrial heroes will share Purge on June 9 via Avalanche Records.
Following 2017's Post Self, the eight-song Purge is said to reassess and update the concepts Godflesh explored on 1992 sophomore album Pure.
Godflesh add of Purge, "The album references the cycle of horror that man has always and will always put us through; those in positions of power revel in the infliction of pain and horror upon individuals, in the name of their religion, their power, their money, their flags..."
In announcing the album, co-founder Justin K. Broadrick teased that Godflesh will take Purge on a "mini tour of select US/[Canada] cities in June," which Exclaim! will have listed upon announcement.
Purge will be previewed with the arrival of opening song "Nero" and "3 self remixes" on April 3. Until then, you can find its complete tracklist below.
