Dif Juz

Liked them a lot but haven't listened in a long while, I imagine because the music is kinda low-key people's reactions to it, however positive are similar.

There was a band from the late 90's called The Workhouse iirc, who took that baton and ran with it, dunno if they are still going or whats available.

An hour interview with Gary Bromley and a link to an interview with Richie Thomas!

Correct pronunciation is Diff-Juzz!

This is GOD right here, and I'm an atheist, but you know what I mean. Jesus would be jealous of this band, I think. I'm sorry but it doesn't get any better than this, does it?

I have been saying 'dif-yooz' for years! It isn't "diff-yooz??!"

of course it's Dif-yooz.

Not according to that interview with Bromley. Wonder if the other members have a different idea. I didn't listen to the Thomas interview.

Did you respond to some kind of indie batsignal?

I guess it's possible it's pronounced 'dif-juz' given the reputed origins of the name being a (likely stoned) variation on 'different jazz,' but 'dif-yooz' is such a cool name and 'dif juz' is so clumsy

anyway this band is long overdue for a lavish deluxe box set

.gifjuz - Is it pronounced "Gif Juz" or "Jif Juz"?

Could get a nice 4-CD box set... Extractions + No Motion on disc 1, Who Says So? + Vibrating Air + Huremics on disc 2, Time Clock Turn Back + whatever other demos and odd tracks are available for disc 3, and then the fabled album recorded with Lee Scratch Perry for disc 4.
