After the disaster of ‘GASH’ (1995); where Jim went into an ill-fated deal with Sony which ended with him being emotionally burnt out; he regrouped and came out with the stunning ‘FLOW'(2001), which was a return of form. it wasn’t as if ‘GASH’ was bad, it just seemed to lack the diversity that was a hallmark of Foetus albums, and wasn’t the noise tour de force that you would have wanted as a floow up to ‘THAW’ (too many years had passed between the two albums).
‘FLOW’ was a mash up of styles that all got pulled into the gravitational field that was the Foetus universe; all pulsating big band and deviant pop.
‘Grace Of God’ harked back to early Foetus with it’s subversion of Gospel music; salvation for the damned.
