Jesu

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Jesu is another musical project spearheaded by Birmingham-based musician and producer Justin Broadrick -- a fixture of England's extreme music scene since integrating the earliest recording lineup of Napalm Death in the mid-'80s. Also a sometimes-member of several other bands (Head of David, Techno Animal, etc.), he is probably best known for his decade-plus leadership of pioneering industrial ensemble Godflesh. Having finally, officially laid that hallowed institution to rest following a reported nervous breakdown in 2002, Broadrick turned his attention t...[more]

 

 

J.K. Broadrick's second full-length is packed with eight gorgeously hypnotic tracks. Conqueror exhales a dreamlike mist of weighty celestial ambience, underwater phantasms, and slow-rolling nebulae, fomenting the kind of kaleidoscopic rapture - brimming with lush electronics, dulcet guitar textures, massive riffs, and lavish atmospheric hues - that makes us swear we're on drugs.

Justin Broadrick, founder of Godflesh, and Ted Parsons from Swans and Killing Joke team up for this debut full-length. Yes, this is what people mean when they say a band is HEAVY. Living legend Justin Broadrick (Godflesh, Final, Techno Animal, et. al.) brings us his most intensely personal offering to date in Jesu. Combing a wounding groove with a soul-wounded clean-tenor, Broadrick's latest muse burrows deep into the corpus and then starkly paints with repose and resignation. Enigmas never rest, and neithe   [ read more ]

All instruments are played by Justin Broadrick and apart from the occasional guest vocalist (Jarboe from The Swans) he handles all vocals. Opiate Sun will be released by Mark Kozelek's Caldo Verde record label. Shoegaze-metal that manages to be strangely beautiful.

Justin K. Broadrick's impressive and storied musical past includes the names of underground heavyweights like Napalm Death and Godflesh, alongside revered avant/industrial pioneers Techno Animal and Ice, but after nearly two decades of diligent stereophonic thrill-seeking, Broadrick has found his true calling in Jesu. This EP is an electro-psychedelic symphony born of the pastoral majesty found around his country home near the English/Welsh border. An icy-sweet combination of tidal guitar resonance and swee   [ read more ]
