Basic physics: When the frontmen of two of the heaviest bands in the world get together, they are guaranteed to make something extremely fucking heavy.
Jesu mastermind and former Godflesh frontman Justin Broadrick and Isis leader Aaron Turner have teamed up to form Greymachine, along with fellow Jesu / Godflesh member Diarmuid Dalton and Head of David’s Dave Cochrane. Broadrick and Turner have both been known to maintain a ton of side projects, so it’s really no surprise that they’d eventually find each other.
What is surprising is just how obliteratingly noisy and sludged-out the result is. You can download the 10-minute Greymachine track “Vultures Descend” right here. “Vultures Descend” will find a home on Disconnected, Greymachine’s debut album, due August 4 from Hydra Head.
