Battle Of Mice / Jesu - Split CD (Robotic Empire) $11.99 Several years in the making, the long-awaited JESU / BATTLE OF MICE split is finally available. Each band has two exclusive, lengthy tracks on this limited edition release. JESU, comprised of the cult-followed Justin K. Broadrick, showcases "Clear Stream" and "Falling From Grace", two pieces towards the darker end of the spectrum he’s created under the JESU moniker. BATTLE OF MICE contribute the two most sinister songs they’ve recorded, "The Bishop" and "Yellow & Black". Heavier than the material found on their "A Day Of Nights" debut yet more dynamic overall, these two final (?) tracks from BATTLE OF MICE compliment the JESU material well. While both bands utilize traditional "heavy" music instruments, they are also unified by usage of keys, atmospherics, and general unique elements thrown in to vary it all. This CD is limited to a one time pressing of 2000 copies and comes housed in a "mini gatefold" CD jacket.
I ordered the vinyl version. Which you can get links to if you follow that link i posted. There's several colour variations.

Battle of Mice - good music, bad vocalist imo

Haha, when I saw this bumped my first thought was to go and check Hydrahead to see if the preorder was up yet.
― aldo, Thursday, 21 August 2008 16:33 (fifteen years ago) link
Single-track LP (!!!) and an EP due in summer, plus some other action ... including mention of a School of Seven Bells remix. This I like the sound of.

― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Friday, 24 July 2009 00:27 (fourteen years ago) link
is that White Static Demon worth checking out?
― Highly trained BBQ chef (rockapads), Friday, 24 July 2009 01:29 (fourteen years ago) link
I like it. Lots of white noise and feedback in innumerable layers.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 24 July 2009 01:33 (fourteen years ago) link
New Jesu is the awesome.
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Monday, 10 August 2009 00:59 (fourteen years ago) link
The Greymachine disc (Broadrick, Diarmuid Dalton, Dave Cochrane and Aaron Turner) is really, really good. Super heavy in the vein of Ice's Under the Skin.
― unperson, Monday, 10 August 2009 02:21 (fourteen years ago) link
greymachine are really good. i mentioned that in the metal thread but no one seemed to share my enthusiasm.
― borntohula, Monday, 10 August 2009 14:57 (fourteen years ago) link
it is good
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Monday, 10 August 2009 15:02 (fourteen years ago) link
Anything in the vein of Under the Skin sounds awesome.
― Alex in SF, Monday, 10 August 2009 15:31 (fourteen years ago) link
Both the new Jesu and Greymachine leave me cold. The first is dull, and - for me - too slow to build. The later is just not my bag at all - I've yet to like any music associated with Aaron Turner. Too red-lined, hate the vocals, a touch samey.
However, I absolutely love the White Static Demon album.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 10 August 2009 15:46 (fourteen years ago) link
Listening to the samples on the Aquarius website and the music sounds great (Ice comparisons totally make sense) but the vocals are pretty annoying. It's hard to tell how much of them there are though.
― Alex in SF, Monday, 10 August 2009 17:10 (fourteen years ago) link
Bass sounds awesome.
― Alex in SF, Monday, 10 August 2009 17:12 (fourteen years ago) link
the bass does sound awesome. who is the bassist for this? i think that their contributions and aaron turner's really add a pulse to this album. "wasted" has such an awesome groove to it.
― borntohula, Monday, 10 August 2009 17:28 (fourteen years ago) link
The bassist is Diarmuid Dalton, the drummer is Dave Cochrane. It is Jesu plus Aaron Turner.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 10 August 2009 17:34 (fourteen years ago) link
Really Cochrane's a bassist?
― Alex in SF, Monday, 10 August 2009 17:45 (fourteen years ago) link
Or rather does Cochrane really play drums? I thought he was a bassist.
― Alex in SF, Monday, 10 August 2009 17:46 (fourteen years ago) link
He's the bassist on Under The Skin, for example.
He was also the bassist in God (one of 'em). I didn't know who played what on this disc 'cause I don't have a real copy, just a promo; at one point I had heard that Broadrick was the drummer, though.
