Jesu's music isn't metal in the traditional sense, really you can hear about as much Mogwai and Slint in their music as you can Justin Broadrick's former band (grindcore heroes) Napalm Death. Their sound seems described best by contradictions; it's certainly heavy, but oddly unaggressive, sludgy yet exquisite and melodic. Broadrick's vocals are decidedly non-metal, clean, and almost soft-spoken at times. To quote a friend, "I never knew sludge could sound so beautiful."

Jesu - Friends are Evil
