EP five song 2008 release by Jesu, an experimental Rock band formed in 2003 by Justin Broadrick following the breakup of Godflesh. Stagnation and musical complacency are components completely unknown to Jesu mastermind and sonic alchemist Justin Broadrick. From record to record, and sometimes even from song to song, visible transformation in the molecular make up of Jesu is made plain to any and all willing investigators. While the core personality remains perpetually intact, the outer trappings continue to shift and fluctuate, which results in renewed vigor and vitality for Jesu, rather than providing fractured evidence of a shaky identity. With this five track EP (2 songs of which originally appeared on the vinyl only split 12" with Eluvium), Broadrick has set aside the heavy foundation of pounding guitars prevalent in past Jesu recordings and brought to the fore elements of texture and melody that previously hovered at the periphery of his monolithic compositions.
