envy/ Jesu split 12"


Recommended Posts

Anybody else pick this up? Somehow my local shop got three copies (out of the thousand that were pressed) so I got one. I'm almost done with the envy side and it sounds good. I think I like their stuff on the Thursday split more, though. I can post pics later if anybody is interested.

FYI, kreation records has some copies still in all colors.

$25 w/ $5 shipping for Media Mail..again $30, but remember, it's imported and coming from a US seller

Looks like I had PO wrong. Mine is on white, which is /700. I'll post pics when I get back from this show I'm leaving for. Also, you may ask your local record shop, because I got my copy for $17, so they may be able to get it for you cheaper.

yeah I was thinking of checking out ameoba for that

A small but strong update for this week, as we may be the first folks in the

US to be selling the incredible new JESU / ENVY split 12"! Our brethren at

Conspiracy Records over in Europe released this beast, and we're stoked to

have been able to import some copies! This is available now in the Robotic

Empire - Online Store:

ENVY have never left their emotionally unstable path of heavy postrock

oaths, but again they've cracked open it's core and stripped the sound down

to it's epic essence. Always passionate and persistent, most motivational

products create unrealistic expectations but stay blind in the mist.

Resembling a dose of insomnia, ENVY blaze like a grey wind through the cream

of the Japanese screamo-postrock crop. Shuffling forward with solitude and

starring at a dying light, an unknown glow. Splendid emotionally layered

riffs and carved drums guide, and give understanding of despair. Deeply

wandering through thick clouds of post-hardcore guitar dust, musically

channeling the remorseless pieces that lead to the dark side. They continue

to swing like an eternal pendulum.

Ever since it's formation in 2003, guru Justin K. Broadrick has let no one

come even close to the throne. On this new JESU slab he incorporates melodic

twisted pop elements with downtempo heavyness, creating a stark textured

vessel intoxicated by the minimalism of cold techno drama. JESU holds on to

the feeling of eternity, still being a modern day flymachine, yet never

losing a transient sight. In a world where lies and reality constantly

transform, we need new frames of thought. New bricks in the wall, and new

days off to rethink how we'll spend our days off.

Yeah, doesn't fully make sense but what this boils down to is that this is a

badass split, of two badass international bands. The packaging for this

release is top notch too, with a study outer jacket housing the printed

innersleeve, all with appropriately stark artwork by Hydra Head/ISIS' Aaron

Turner. The vinyl itself is heavy, although probably not quite 180 gram. The

pressing of this stunning split LP was 2000 total, all on colored vinyl: 500

on transparent blue, 500 on metallic gold, 700 on solid white and 300 on

silver. We got everything but the silver vinyl (the bands themselves are the

only way to get it), and we are asking a limit of 1 per color per customer

please.
