Nothing Is Free is the debut EP of JK Flesh, a pseudonym of English musician Justin Broadrick, and was self-released digitally by Avalanche Recordings on a pay what you want basis on 7 September 2015.
Most of the traditional metal riffs are gone and replaced with abrasive washes of bass and other synthesizer noises,[3][4] which Broadrick saw as a more honest realization of what he set out to do with the JK Flesh project.
[7] The tracks on the album are slower and more darkly psychedelic than those on Posthuman, with Broadrick commenting "I love working in that slowish, 80 to 90 BPM, super fucking gray area.
[10] Writing for Intravenous Magazine, Sean Palfrey summed up Nothing Is Free saying it "blends elements of dub, industrial and noise into a heady and oppressive mix of throbbing beats, swirling synths, static, distorted vocals, and subtle melodies that is cerebral in its execution" and "a rewarding listen".
[12] Freq agreed calling the EP "supremely confident and knowledgable (sic)", also adding that "Nothing Is Free almost palpably swelters, demands motion, forces the body to change its way of being, to take a chance on total immersion in skilfully structured, blissfully overwhelming noise".
