Its time we had this talk....

[D.o.S.]

Man jesu was great up through SILVER but quickly devolved into elevator music for people that like isis but need something to put on when they are around others so they won't be accused of only listening to isis.

Lifeline is great. I would listen to more Jesu but the flood of releases around 2010 made it hard to keep up.

[SPACERITUAL]

I would listen to more Jesu but I am usually just listening to isis.

I think of JESU like i think of most electronic artists. They get together once every five years and record seven hours worth of the same stuff and just sporadically release sections of it with different names while drinking daiquiris and wearing white pants at different expensive european hotels.

[D.o.S.]

I do that. You wish you could do that.

I love Jesu. I don't even know why. On paper, it's boring. There's no riffs, and he sings like a choir boy. It just lasts forever.

Someone told me to listen to Jesu back in college, and I wanted to dislike it because it sounded dull and stupid. But for whatever reason, I dug it hard. It's like listening to a Swervedriver record at quarter speed.

this is actually awesomely accurate

[D.o.S.]

Also JKB makes great sounding records all the time.

we've already established that broadrick wears those zip off cargo pants you get out of a carboard box with '$5' written on it in sharpie at a lowes or something, not white pants.

[Iommic Pope]

AT LOWES!!!

[daseb]

actually even lowes has shelves and racks. Probably more like the old dimmeys upstairs at forest hill chase shopping centre before they became a westfield joint, that was 'closing down' for like five years.

Oh how Australian retail has changed.

Pants that are shorts at the same time.......

[casecandy]

Fantastic thread, I love it

I know right. Fuck gallipoli, when this country really came of age was when we finally got a uniqlo and everyone stopped dressing like absolute shit on casual friday.

Broadrick is prepared for any eventuality. That's why his guitars have those extra strings.

[D.o.S.]

I'm just sayin', the hate is groundless.

oh I'm not hating on Broadrick's dad pants or eight string guitars, Broadrick is my inspiration for growing old and being a dad but still playing heavy shit.


Also every time I read that maelstrom article I go on ebay and start looking at POD's...
