Isis's first album sounds like how I always thought Godflesh should've sounded. Streetcleaner is pretty classic though.

Grimly, see if you can find the CD that has Selfless and the Merciless EP both on it. The EP's only four songs, but they're great, especially "Flowers."

I still haven't heard the first Ice album. But i really like Bad Blood!
how does it compare with the first one?

― Matthew OMalley (Matt-O), Tuesday, 4 July 2006 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link

so i bit the bullet and listened to the jesu album again today. it really is fucking outstanding, but CHRIST it hurts. it's the aural equivalent of sleep paralysis; heavy in such a suffocating and draining way. still, it is starting to cast an unholy spell over me. hurrah etc.

the EP just gets more and more awesome, though. what's the first EP (heart ache?) like?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 4 July 2006 21:56 (seventeen years ago) link

More like the 1st album.

doesn't really - the name is about the only thing they have in common. under the skin is more like a hybrid of godflesh and god, with a couple of longer tracks that actually get kind of funky. definitely worth hearing if you dig earlier god/flesh stuff.

two weeks pass...

Aquarius have 50 of the S/T Jesu pic disks and Hydrahead are due to start selling the non pre-order packages on the 25th I think.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 24 July 2006 14:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Under the Skin is one of my all time favorite albums. I just listened to it for the first time in a year last night, and it hit the same spot it always has. I read somewhere where someone described it as almost krautrock on a few songs, and that makes sense to me. For me it ranks up there with the Loop albums, Skullflower's IIIrd Gatekeeper, God's Anatomy of Addiction, and Techno Animal's Re-Entry. It's so worth seeking out. Don't be put off by the first few songs. It isn't greatness until "Skyscraper" and onward. I think emusic still has it for cheap, but I could be wrong. I haven't been there in a while.

Godflesh is my next 'discovery' project. Jesu's Silver is magnificent, and HMV were stocking Neurosis and Isis as well in case I need to further my voyage into art-metal. Happy days.

― Scourage (Haberdager), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 15:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Get all the Isis, Neurosis and Godflesh. You won't be disappointed!!!

The new remixed version of the Jesu - Jesu album, out on Pic Disk from Hydrahead is really great. Vocals are more upfront. I wouldn't be surprised if next year it gets a release on normal vinyl(probably on 5 colours too since it's HH) But if you can get the pic disk then do so. The quality is the best i've heard on a pic disk. As good as normal vinyl i'd say.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Can a mod add Jesu to the thread title to make searches easier? I'm sure alex wouldn't mind.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Done.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Thank you Ned.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Hehe I should've said add "Final" in there too. I haven't heard them yet. I should maybe check out their 2 cd on Neurot sometime.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Final are fantastic, to be sure...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:21 (seventeen years ago) link

The new remixed version of the Jesu - Jesu album

o rly? remixed in what way? ie so it sounds like it was actually recorded using some form of high-fidelity equipment, or inna "oceanic remixes" stylee?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Which Neurosis album would you most recommend? The one they had in stock was called 'The Eye Of Every Storm', and the cover-art was so good I nearly bought it (ahead of the two I did buy, mentioned elsewhere, which will do for the minute TYVM).

Silver is now AWESOME and really far more melodic and three-dimensional (the depth of the sound is astonishing) than I'd expected. There's really some substance behind this sound, something of almost infinite allure, which is feeding my curiosity no end.

― Scourage (Haberdager), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Louis> Through Silver In Blood. Eye Of Every Storm is the last album and is good too.

Grimly ~~y rnoiwontfuckingsayit~~ It sounds great. Vocals are far more up front and the whole thing does sound great.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:39 (seventeen years ago) link

"the eye of every storm" is actually the only full neurosis album i own, but FUCK ME does it rock. i couldn't recommend it enough. and louis, i know exactly what you mean about "silver": it really does keep unfolding into new levels of brilliance.

kerr: wow. that sounds fucking awesome. i shall check it out.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:44 (seventeen years ago) link

I think you can still get the Pic Disk over at e-vinyl.com unless you wanna try ebay.
Hydrahead are sold out.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:46 (seventeen years ago) link

tits. i shall investigate over a slightly longer period than i had originally bargained for.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Listening to good shoegaze guitar is like biting into a sandwich which contains no less than thirty-five different types of fine-cut salami. Listening to good METALGAZE guitar is like biting into the same sandwich, toasted with mozzarella.

― Scourage (Haberdager), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:48 (seventeen years ago) link

jesu - 2xLP picture disc @ e-vinyl is 24,90 euros + postage.

Ebay will be much higher. Avalanche had the original Conspiracy records double vinyl version when it came out, £19.99 they wanted for it.
I got mine cheaper than that from Conspiracy and it was on red vinyl too.

So e-vinyl is probably your cheapest bet.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 22:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Hehe I should've said add "Final" in there too.

also Fall Of Because

"Tired Of Me" on the jesu album would make the ULTIMATE goth wedding song.

man, that doesn't sound like an endorsement. but i'm a grouch hatin' on silver and all.

― GOD PUNCH TO HAWKWIND (yournullfame), Thursday, 24 August 2006 02:53 (seventeen years ago) link

i don't think i need a remixed jesu album. i never really listened to the remixed isis stuff. didn't do anything for me. i like remixed godflesh stuff though.

― scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 24 August 2006 03:32 (seventeen years ago) link

The Bug's album has four incredible ragga tracks and 6 crap dubby ones. HAven't heard enough of his other projects to comment. The Bug was great when I saw him live. Really good!

― wogan lenin (dog latin), Thursday, 24 August 2006 10:53 (seventeen years ago) link

I hope its not too long until theres a new Jesu album.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Thursday, 24 August 2006 12:31 (seventeen years ago) link

justin broadrick has a post on his blog from march 06 where he mentions that recording had begun on album #2.

― drone/a/sore (drone/a/sore), Friday, 25 August 2006 04:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Wahey!!! LIKE RAAAAAAATS!!!

Ned, dismiss me all ya like but if it weren't for yer Allmusic review I probably wouldn't be listening to this album right now. Get in!

Boo Radley's finest hour safely purchased as well, for a combined total of under 14 quid. Great day!

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 8 September 2006 22:11 (seventeen years ago) link

ok you know what, the s/t album is STILL fucking great, and Conqueror is a pretty hope-instilling title for a Justin Broaderick rekkid

― Thomas Tallis (Tommy), Friday, 8 September 2006 22:28 (seventeen years ago) link

The new Bug song with Flowdan is pretty nice.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 8 September 2006 22:36 (seventeen years ago) link

what happened to g. christian green, the old bassist? i remember reading a godflesh article years ago and it said his favorite band was the beach boys

― señor citizen (eman), Friday, 8 September 2006 22:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes and yes again.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 8 September 2006 22:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Green put out an album as Vitriol that i recall being pretty okay.

― Ghost Bear Junior High Attendance Party (Ghost Bear Junior High Attenda), Saturday, 9 September 2006 00:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Also a solo album on Neurot, but I don't recall much about it.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 9 September 2006 00:47 (seventeen years ago) link

I still can't get over the fact that people really like Techno Animal.

― Rockist_Scientist (RSLaRue), Saturday, 9 September 2006 00:49 (seventeen years ago) link

well, get over it. pussy.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Saturday, 9 September 2006 00:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Okay, maybe I'll go listen to some Marc Anthony.

― Rockist_Scientist (RSLaRue), Saturday, 9 September 2006 00:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Vitriol was solo and on Neurot. same album?

― Ghost Bear Junior High Attendance Party (Ghost Bear Junior High Attenda), Saturday, 9 September 2006 02:13 (seventeen years ago) link

i think i still have that vitriol album. i liked it okay, but i never played it that much.

― scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 9 September 2006 02:18 (seventeen years ago) link

god where did that come from? i was in a pissy mood, i apologise Rockist Scientist.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Saturday, 9 September 2006 02:25 (seventeen years ago) link

godflesh threads make you all aggro.

― scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 9 September 2006 02:27 (seventeen years ago) link

haha prolly so!

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Saturday, 9 September 2006 02:35 (seventeen years ago) link

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Saturday, 9 September 2006 13:22 (seventeen years ago) link

latebloomer, that's okay. Instead of being my usual thin-skinned self I actually found it funny to be called a pussy on the Godlfesh/Techno Animal, etc. thread.
