Jesu's latest EP takes Justin Broadrick's new direction of slow and melodic to the next level. The record is bound to turn off some diehard fans of dense and brutal metal, but it is likely to appeal to the masses of people like me who miss those halcyon days of shoegaze in the '90s.
You don't get many more image heavy titles than "Bruise Journal" and Slow Listener has created a unhurried burner of a track here. This drone warped piece creeps out the speaker like a living breathing thing, though not for long by the sounds of it.
There's something initially not quite right about finding a First Person 3" CD-R release from Lee Stokoe's (Marzuraan, Skullflower) catch-all drone/noise project. The incredibly prolific Culver normally inhabits a world of hazy noise feedback, more suited to his Matching Head label's photocopy wrapped cassettes than First Person's almost cute transparent plastic sleeves.
