Currently planned for a Mid-October release, it's about time!
Tracks 1-8 are studio material, recorded at Richbitch Studios,
Birmingham 1986.
Tracks 9-11 are live material, recorded in 1986/87.
Track 10 is an entire FoB show, containing
the songs Empire of Lies, Whiterock-Blackdeath,
Christian Motherfucker, and Ecstacy of Hate. Entitled Fight
Show, due to an enormous audience fight that broke out. Also in this show,
Mick Harris and Nik Bullen appear on vocals.
Track 11 is another complete live show, with the songs Life is Easy,
Calling, and Submit-Supress. This show apparently has the band
playing under the influence of pretty much everything. A segment from this show
appears as the intro to Love, Hate (Slugbaiting) off of the Pure
record.
Cleopatra Records wanted to
release this (in 1997) under the lengthy title:
Fall of Because-Life is Easy 1986 [Godflesh-The
Early Years]. This deal fell through, as Earache wouldn't
allow the rights to the name Godflesh in the title.
