Jesaiah - Et Tu Hope (2009)
Debut album from Swedish metalhardcore band JESAIAH. You can tell that they have matured since their start in 2006-2007, just comparing the EP "Building Bunkers, Burning Bridges" to "Et Tu, Hope" is a clear sign of how much they have evolved in a music sense. The album is well-produced and has a sound I haven't heard in a long time by being so energy rich yet maintaining its raw beauty. The beauty is created when the "post-rock" breaks out in the metal songs. You can't see it coming, but when it comes; it grabs hold of you and your perception of Swedish metal will never be the same again.
Jesaiah's "Et Tu, Hope" makes clear distance from today's Swedish metal and hardcore bands, as they have created an album that is heavy but same time it keep its delightful sound with a mix of lyrics from the dark side of life. Comes in a real nice eko packaging with a very well designed layout and artwork.
The album was produced by Björn Olszewski (Meleeh) and recorded by Magnus Björk (The Bocadillio Palace) and Mikael Nordström (Garaget Studio). The european release date is October 9, and the release date for the UK is November 14.
So many tags, but I cannot describe the sound of this band without them. Enjoy, my brutal guys and girls :)

God has a dream for planet EarthIt’s a dream where swords will really be turned into plowshares, where justice and compassion will really and truly subvert greed and violence.Not all press about Christianity have to be about Westboro Bigots or Catholic clergy going far beyond the pale of acceptable behavior. In a more optimistic vein, the Letters to God film is debuting in theaters. Granted, some might write it off as too expressive or evangelical, but that aside, the movie is based on the actual events within the life of Tyler Doughtie, a young boy from the Nashville area who developed cancer, and wrote genuine letters to God. (A comparable theme is in Consolation of Philosophy by Boethius, a 6th century Christian facing execution.) The boy lost his life, and his faith was a source of consolation and hope to his family and friends.
