Any one a fan of this band? It was love at first sight so to speak for me. Listened to there self titled first, then it snow balled from there, now there one of my top artists.

Also, have any of you listened to there latest EP, Life Line yet? If not, its worth a try, I enjoy it quite a bit.

correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't they one of those "post-metal" bands that mixes post-rock influences in with metal influences? kinda like isis and neurosis?

What he said, with a bunch of other influences floating around, such as Industrial and Shoegaze. Though it really depends on the release, there newer stuff is more calm and shoegaze-ish.

Any of there stuff is worth at least checking out, but I'm a big fan of Sunrise/sunset.

My personal pick would be Sun Down/Sun Rise, but thats a vary diffrent release of theres.

I would start with there self titled, then move on to Silver and Heart ache

Jesu is amazing, but very post-metal meets shoegaze, NOT doom metal.

It's Drone Metal, which is generally viewed as a sub-genre of Doom.

No, they are not Drone Metal. Drone Metal is the likes of Sunn O))), Nadja, and the like. Don't be ridiculous. wink

From what I understand, Drone does not necessarily have to be that heavily noise-influenced, check out Hjarnidaudi, for example.

And, I will also agree, that some of Jesu's stuff would not qualify as doom, or metal, for that matter... But check out songs like "Man/Woman" if you wish to question it.
