Jesu (electronic, metal, albums, fan, career)

Is it Metal? Is It Shoegaze? Is it Electronica? Yes it is and it's the business. Mainman Justin Broadrick has been involved with Napalm Death, Godflesh and now Jesu in a career spanning 25 years. Last years Conqueror glides and pummels. It fills the monolilithic riffing chasm in your life. It rolls around your head like a fine wine rolls over the tongue. It's Godflesh meets My Bloody Valentine and you should listen to it if you like the murkier side of Post metal.

Heard the name few times before. I think 'further information' needed. Liked the track you posted

I was a huge Godflesh fan for ages, and honestly I think a lot of his Jesu stuff is even better than Godflesh. I especially love the Silver and Lifeline EPs.

Today was a perfect day for some Jesu, since it's gr1m and cold outside.

Pretty good stuff.

This is pretty cool. Different and nebulous in style but I like it.

Jesu is pretty sweet and to be honest, most stuff on Hydra Head Records is. Their Silver EP is what attracted me to them but I haven't heard any of their newer EPs yet. I think I might grab them now actually. Oh, and I like the Godflesh/MBV comparison.

I got around to Conqueror a while ago and I think it's absolutely devastating. I haven't listened to any of the EP's.
