In All Languages is a compilation album released by British industrial metal band Godflesh on 24 July 2001. It is a double album. A music video DVD with the same name was also released.
Background
In All Languages was released on 24 July 2001,[1] thirteen years after the formation of Godflesh. Godflesh would disband one year later, only to reform in 2010.[2]
The first disc of the album primarily features tracks from previous albums ("Like Rats", "Xnoybis", "Frail", "The Internal"), although songs from the group's EPs do hold a presence, such as "Avalanche Master Song" and "Slateman". Disc two is a collection of more obscure songs, featuring B-sides, extended mixes, and two tracks from the band's BBC session.[1]
The day of the release of In All Languages, a music video DVD of the same name was also released. It features videos for "Crush My Soul", "Mothra", "Slavestate", "Christbait Rising" and "Avalanche Master Song".[3]

Eduardo Rivadavia from Allmusic called In All Languages a "near-perfect career synthesis". He praised the inclusion of the tracks of the second disc which, according to him, "become especially relevant for a full appreciation of the band" and are "[a] great place to start discovering Godflesh". His only regret was the fact that it couldn't feature songs from the band's last record, Hymns.[1]
