Zola Jesus

Artist- Zola Jesus
Album- Valusia EP
Label- Sacred Bones
Genre: Moody

This EP is like the gothic sister of the Twin Shadow album from earlier this fall. Nika Roza Danilova, a.k.a. Zola Jesus, has a stunning operatic voice that conveys emotion quite well. This album definitely sounds like early 4AD material. Zola recently supported Fever Ray on tour, and I’d say this is like Fever Ray meets Cocteau Twins meets industrial music. I look forward to new material.
