* EpicRiff: Too many times to count.
* FanNickname: Justin Broadrick is frequently referred to as "JK Flesh."
* FirstInstallmentWins: ''Streetcleaner'' still gets praise for its eerie, slow, and enormously heavy sound, more so than all of Godflesh's subsequent albums.
* NightmareFuel: A lot of their work can fall into this trope. Do not listen to ''Streetcleaner'' alone in a dim room.
* SignatureSong: "Like Rats" from ''Streetcleaner''
* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: ''Slavestate'', with its heavy electronic influences, and ''Us and Them'', which featured a LighterAndSofter, HipHop-influenced sound, caused this reaction for many fans.
* WinBackTheCrowd: After dabbling with TraditionalHeavyMetal, HipHop, and HardRock along with their following breakup, Godflesh reformed and in 2014 the band released ''A World Lit Only By Fire'', which was seen as a return to form for the band and was praised by fans and critics alike. 2017's ''Post Self'' also saw strong reception.
