Description/Reviews: 

If technicality is your bag, then get a load of these guys. Seriously! Jayus is a complicated well thought out jumble of ups and downs. It’s good, really good in fact, and with its complexity it has to be. There is a fine line with music like this, somehow a combination of bands like Protest the Hero, Placebo and Periphery and only the truly elite can get this right, otherwise it can sound pants. The Hirsch Effekt have no qualms with breaking convention. I mean who really cares if all the chords they play are in key with each other, I know I don’t.
Vocally, there is a healthy mix of aggression and softer tones that come from the singers mouth. This is a fantastic skill to have. With this sort of music every member needs to be the best at what they do and yes they are very good. The overall album quality is professional sounding.
