I'm extremely confused as to why you have material available online entitled "split with sewer goddess"? I appreciate your support, but c'mon man, that's a bit much. I offered to do a trade via pm because of your interest, but I wouldn't work with anyone I was completely unfamiliar with. I'm not sure if there was a miscommunication or something, so no big deal, but I'd appreciate it if you removed the tag.
fine will do when i get home. i have nothing to trade atm. sorry for the incovience. ive been involved in for just over 10 years and thought my name wouldve popped somewhere. alas i was wrong. sorry.

most the bands i can think have been mentioned, but i will add ...
oil seed rape (http://www.discogs.com/artist/Oil+Seed+Rape)
uk band, i think, i had an ep by in the early 90s that was def this sorta 'industrial' stuff.
JFK (http://www.discogs.com/artist/JFK+%282%29)
i guess you could add em to this list
slug (http://www.discogs.com/artist/Slug+%286%29)
us band that are prob leaning more towards noise rock stuff
there's def guitar on some crash worship stuff. there's guitar on most if not all tracks on the live cd 'espontaneo!' (http://www.discogs.com/Crash-Worship-ADRV-Espontaneo/release/188155), sometimes being played with drum sticks or whatever. great cd, recommended.

Can't really get over how incredible the material on Teenage Fantasy 1987-88 sounds (which hardly anyone actually heard at the time - there were a maximum of 50 copies done of most of these tapes I believe). Would recommend that to anyone.
Skullflower - Form Destroyer/Xaman/Third Gatekeeper. Expanded reissues of the first two coming soon on Dirter/Shock, third easily available.
Valley of Fear - s/t - completely fits with this style of music, so much so that despite being a 2012 release it feels distinctly retro. Great listen though.
It's sort of half what OP is looking for and half a fucked-up conceptual prog album but as it's one of my favourite albums of all time I will also recommend the peerless Ramleh - Be Careful What You Wish For.

To me it always sounded like Anthony was ahead of his time, so to say. While many of the 80's bands sound very much the 80's or early 90's and projects as Ethnic Acid, AX or JFK falls into kind of very much the same atmosphere - just putting even something like AX on player now, sounds so pulverizing and heavy, it appears more like guys with modern tech and fetish for sunn o)) kind of bass heavy rumble, than the early 90's screeching lo-fi guitar noises. My favorite still remains Ethnic Acid... Sound of all the tapes is very strong and it would be unfortunate if more won't be re-issues...
Finnish band Psychopatic Terror started as death metal band, but little by little shifting to "industrial metal". Perhaps more of this Ministry kind of style than bands mentioned above. New CD just came out and listened in couple days ago. From myspace track "conspiracy" may be best example. "Poisoned Food" is from new album, but more metal side of it, although majority of album is with more electric feel. http://www.myspace.com/psychopathicterrorofficial
I'm really interested in Slug, never heard them. anyone got any recommendations? what do they sound like?
Crash Worship is one of my favorites.
I recently got tipped off to Jon Custodian's new project Kathogah
pretty fucking well done Godflesh worship.

Slug wasn't much different than Unsane (they did a split). More so-called 'noise rock'.

checked em out last night by plugging my phone into my stereo (cpu doesn't have speakers), not bad, but i guess i wanted something more...probably won't investigate em much further, i was just curious since D. Romero was in em.
thanks guys

Wild Rags released their Extinction Is Mandatory album in 1995 (http://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Landfill/Extinction_Is_Mandatory/102368 (http://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Landfill/Extinction_Is_Mandatory/102368)). It's been ages since I heard the album but I remember it being quite average Godflesh worship. Bastard Nailed In Wood was one of the better songs on the album.
I don't think I saw Halo mentioned, which would be my first entry in the Godflesh worship sweepstakes.
Admittedly, this track
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-xYsnFUC5o
...is a little more Godfleshy, as it tends to sound a tad more electronic, versus the more sludgy or swansesque sound found elsewhere.
EDIT
Talking Godflesh worship, this song always makes me laugh - mostly because the only words I could ever make out were "Godflesh!":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFCTpEURzcY
(To be played in conjunction with this one, 'natch:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlvxhcrmkC8
)
But ZG tracks like "Shoot Me With Your Blood" (HAHAHA!) are actually pretty great.
Zeni Geva are untouchable.
Some Zeni Geva/Swans worship here:

How about SPINE WRENCH, and SIN who they did a split with.
WT Nelson's side project GERONIMO cd can suit this branch of sounds.
I do not want to compare it to other projectsbut put me in the same mood of when I was listening the more instrumental part of Godflesh.
precise drumming, loud bass and plenty of trogotronic noise, menacing atmosphere, especially in the second part of the cd. good one
as much as I love Godflesh (probably my most all time scrobbled artist aside from Black Sabbath on last.fm), what's some stuff that still utilizes drum machines and synths but falls outside of this but is also brutal like Godflesh, just doesn't sound like mere "worship"
