- If you haven't been lucky to experience a Sonic Jesus live show then check out this live session they did for 'Triumph', taken off 'Neither Virtue Nor Anger', the highly-acclaimed record from the Italian outfit. A dark, brooding affair expertly exercising on array of influences from shoegaze, psych, krautrock, goth and post-punk. The record is introspective, hypnotic and has seen them compared to the likes of The Brian Jonestown Massacre, A Place To Bury Strangers and The Black Angels. Coming in at ninety minutes long and spanning four sides of vinyl, Neither Virtue Nor Anger "feel[s] like you're embarking on an epic descent into some collective psychic and spiritual underworld, from which you may never emerge" - The Quietus.
You can pick up Neither Virtue Nor Anger on double LP, CD and digital from www.fuzzclub.com

Last year Sonic Jesus grasped the attention of psych godfathers The Black Angels, with whom they shared a 10” split single, collecting astonishing reviews and premieres in Consequence Of Sound and Exclaim!
Shortly after getting together in 2012, the Italian band released their first self-titled EP and almost immediately sold-out, followed by their mind-blowing London live debut at The Shacklewell Arms. Since then, they have taken part in the Reverb Conspiracy compilation (curated by Fuzz Club and Austin Psych Fest) twice and toured intensively around Europe. They also shared stage with Damo Suzuki and collaborated with iconic Icelandic artist Jón Sæmundur aka Nonni Dead of Dead Skeletons, who did the cover art for the EP and joined them on stage at Eindhoven Psych Lab 2014.
Neither Virtue Nor Anger is something beyond the colourful blend of 60s Psychedelia, Folk, Krautrock, Shoegaze and Post-Punk anticipated by the band’s earlier EP Locomotive. The more it progresses, the more it turns into a desperate stomping Bacchanalia, spiced up with an hypnotic flavour and distorted atmosphere a la Faust.
The album features the artwork of prominent Italian artist Mirco Maracci. His work has been exhibited in Palazzo Taverna in Roma in 2014, along with Andy Warhol, Giorgio De Chirico, Keith Haring and Amedeo Modigliani.
The album is mixed by The Black Angel’s Brett Orrison at The Austin Recording Service, Neither Virtue Nor Anger is anticipated by the video of Lost Reprise, by Emanuele Manco.

Came for the name, stayed for the sound. Sounds like A Place to bury strangers had a kid with The Sisters of Mercy
ha that's brilliant! i simply heard sonic jesus, but you're right :)
I don't know about that, I'm hearing Jesus and Mary Chain with a hint of Fields of Nephilm.
It's the voice and the beat...SofM, Joy Division, Swans even......
I love psych bands because you can't understand a single word.
Stumbled into this brilliance several tracks ago, loving the driving, postpunk frenetic with the huge dissonant everything running through a tube amp and a ratt pedal.
this is dark, lads! give me so so so much more
Did some magic brownies on a flight back from Vegas listening to this on blast. Unreal sonic experience with earbuds
My lord! How am I just now hearing of these guys? Truly imaginative and incredible! Woohoo!
I feel sheepish took me an additional two years...
Drummer looks like a beast

Now all of you young people look for the Jesus and Mary Chain ! If you like this you will like that.
Ya, they're not the same vibe at all, I listened to like 10 songs
YES
This strange song my mother sang
"pissing in the shadows was born a sea"
this fairy tales tells me on the beach
and the desert shines when the wave breaks
My mother tells me to believe
and I say a prayer for the beach
and the desert shines for the moon
and the desert shines when the wave breaks
This strange song my mother sang
in ancient times she shone across the sea
while now I'm pissing on the moon
like the shadows of this magic dream
My mother tells me: you are free
and I sing this song for the sea
Mother tell me of your little dreams
and now I'm pissing on this burning beach
Mother you don’t sing my rock’n’roll
Mother you don’t know when I was born
!!!
The last of the Jesus bands and probably the unknowingly to me best (my guess is as good as mine)! Great band btw
