I was wrong about this album when it came out, it might honestly be his best as Jesu. It feels so vulnerable and emotional, moreso than any of this project's past discography. It was a genuinely bold move to not use autotune on the vocals except for as an effect. You can feel the emotion in Justin's voice. Thank you for what, four decades of wonderful music? I guess it depends when you start counting. He will be in his 70s or older still reinventing the wheel. Brandon Handy
Dark electronic music gets warped and clobbered on the latest from Author & Punisher. Brooding, cutting, and claustrophobic. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 18, 2017
On the forthcoming Tombs album "All Empires Fall," the band expands their scope and range, balancing brutal riffs with melancholy melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 29, 2016
I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
