Carcass and Godflesh are English metal bands linked here by a Peel Sessions compilation: Carcass emerged from late-80s grindcore/death metal; Godflesh pioneered industrial metal with the 1989 album Streetcleaner.

This compilation collects BBC Peel Sessions material: according to the review Carcass recorded eight tracks in two sessions (first in December 1988, the second two years later) and Godflesh recorded four tracks in August 1989. The sessions were hosted by John Peel and released by Earache.
