Jesu stuff

from Pitchfork:

Jesu captain Justin K. Broadrick continues his love affair with short formats with two new releases. The first, a new EP titled Why Are We Not Perfect?, expands upon the Jesu material from last year’s split 12" with Eluvium. It features the three tracks from that release (“Farewell”, “Blind and Faithless”, and “Why Are We Not Perfect”) plus “alternative versions” of “Farewell” and the title track. Hydra Head will release Why Are We Not Perfect? on August 19.

The second is a long-in-the-works split with Battle of Mice, out now on Robotic Empire. It’s available on CD and colored vinyl, with both limited to 2000 copies.

Broadrick is also delivering on his promise of vinyl versions of Jesu’s Heart Ache and Pale Sketches, as well as his side project Final’s Afar picture disc. Broadrick’s own Avalanche Recordings will start shipping 180-gram vinyl editions of all three records on August 22. Each Jesu record comes in an edition of 1000, while the Final pressing was limited to 500 copies.

Oh, really? A Jesu/Envy split? When did this come out? And where was this available?

Looks like the opportunity is long gone. I’m not scared yet to not find it somewhere.

came out in june. only in japan though. its gonna come out on hydrahead someday. i’m digging the battle of mice split jesu tracks much more though.

the vinyl is arriving. the ‘why are…’ ep is leaked. the alt. versions are great.

if the final stuff is uploaded, I’d greatly appreciate it. no way I have the money, nor turntable, to get the lp.
