After a four-year hiatus, the Manchester progressive rock band released Godbluff (1975), their fifth album. Reviews "It was the best reformation ever. Godbluff was a classic in every way. It conjured up vast heaths, the burning huts of shepherds, hordes of charioteers laying waste to homesteads, heads on spears thrust into the earth. And Hammill stood in the midst of it all, like Zarathustra and confused, desperately and eloquently searching for some semblance of morality where there was none." (Mojo)
