Jesu

[J.]

no. i could have, but im waiting until SOuthern records US gets some. that's who i contacted.

i went through all the ordering of the 1st pressing, but then i saw it would be something like $30, and that's after the cheapest shipping.

ill wait till the US dstributor gets some, hopefully it will be cheaper. i dont care what color it is.

Listened to Conqueror on streaming. Pretty rad album, really relaxing. I'll have to pick it up sometime soon

 

[MFJ]

bottom line: not a very good band

 

[Doom]

Wrong. The self-titled is probably a 9/10. There's one track I don't really care for (the last one IIRC) but everything else on that album is magnificent.

 

[Dev]

bottom line: not a very good band

I think the same but they're somehow enjoyable on a live setting. Too soft on albums.

 

[J.]

fact: jesu is amazing on album. if you want brutal, get Godflesh. if you want soft, get Jesu. both rule.

just got the email from Southern. the US store has it.

 

[Night Mare]

I still don't really *get* Jesu, but I keep getting the feeling that there is something amazing in there, like the feeling I got from Neurosis before I was into them, so I will keep trying. Plus, nothing Aurora Borealis has anything to do with could be bad, so far anyway.

just paid for Sun Down/Sun Rise. only $14 p/p

Justin K Broadrick has restarted his web label Avalanche Recordings which he originally began in 2000 with the limited CDR issue of the then unreleased Godflesh EP 'Messiah'. The label quietly resurfaced recently with the highly limited release of four FINAL improvised and hand numbered CDR's, which were to be sold as limited editions at Broadrick related concerts.

Avalanche Recordings now presents its first full release in the form of 'Pale Sketches' limited to 2000 copies only on CD, an album compiling unreleased Jesu material containing some songs culled from even before the full conceptual realisation of the project. It is a compilation of Jesu songs that Broadrick felt did'nt fit with previous Jesu releases, so he chose to mix these songs this year and compile them for their own release. Available to buy now on pre-order and shipping in early October, the CD is housed in a full colour 6 panel digipak and contains 8 songs, 4 of which are instrumental, song 4 'The Playgrounds Are Empty' can be heard over at the official Jesu myspace site within the next 24 hours...

In January 2008 'Pale Sketches' will also be available from the Avalanche Store on 180 grm double vinyl, along with the long awaited vinyl version of the first Jesu release 'Heart Ache' and a new FINAL studio album on picture disc only. These items will be available to buy on pre-order in January 2008 and shipping in late February.

Please visit the Avalanche Store HERE : http://www.avalancheinc.co.uk/store.html
and scan down the Avalanche Recs catalogue until you reach 'Pale Sketches' which can be purchased immediately.

All Avalanche Recordings releases are available ONLY from the Avalanche Store or from selected Justin K Broadrick related concerts, albeit in an extremely limited quantity.
