Conqueror

J.K. Broadrick triumphantly returns with his second, and quite appropriately titled, Jesu full-length (the follow-up to 2006’s critically acclaimed Silver EP). Packed with eight gorgeously hypnotic tracks in just over an hour, Conqueror exhales a dreamlike mist of weighty celestial ambience, underwater phantasms and slow-rolling nebulae, fomenting the kind of kaleidoscopic rapture—brimming with lush electronics, dulcet guitar textures, massive riffs, and lavish atmospheric hues—that makes us swear we’re on drugs.

Metal legend Justin Broadrick (Godflesh, Napalm Death) issues his second full-length of heavy shoegaze, drawing equally from Slowdive, Red House Painters, and doom metal gloom.

Jesu - Conqueror review: Jesu's second album is a welcome addition to legend of Justin Broadrick and further proves his immense talent. Crushing, beautiful and layered, [i]Conqueror[/i] is an extremely worthwhile album for anyone with interest.<script src=
