''Jesu'' is a British [[DoomMetal Drone Metal]] / {{Shoegazing}} band consisting of Justin K. Broadrick (also of IndustrialMetal band Music/{{Godflesh}} and formerly of Music/NapalmDeath), Diarmuid Dalton, and Ted Parsons.
The band is known for their lengthy, surprisingly soothing "metalgaze." Broadrick's lyrics are both personal and political, and somehow work for the genre. Shoegazing is known for being difficult in making a message in the music, seeing as vocals are usually not really worked with. Somehow ''Jesu'' succeeds in giving their music "something to say."
