Pitchfork, 8.1 Be not mistaken, this is a white-hot star in the making NME Maga z ineHuge, heartwrenching songspowered forth on epic synthand crashing war drums. The Guardian, UKone of the most terrifyingly immense things youll hear all year...Night is anoperatic, Lynchian peek into sonic armageddon. NME Rada rDanilovas voice is powerful and fragile and is at the centre of every song on the EP. There is a constant dark undertone in every song which is occasionally lifted by the power of Danilovas remarkable vocals. Virgin MediaThe most startling thing about this record is that it hints at the even biggerand greater things Zola Jesus might be capable of. If there was ever a doubt Zola Jesus had talent under all the noise and electronics, then here is the rawproof, howling at you from the stereo. Drowned in Sound Well rounded and perfectly paced, Stridulum II s dark sonic tapestry proves that the future forZola Jesus is as bright as Nika will allow. T h e L i n e o f B e s t F i t Her vocal performances can feel so heartbreaking theyre like Sinead OConnors Nothing Compares 2U with BONUS TEARS. Can you imagine? - Artrocker

This album is the work of the startingly young, formeropera student Nika Danilova. Combining mastodonic dramatic projection and doomladen gothic drums, Nika creates the most gut-stirringly devastating murderballads you will hear all year.

(Shesa bit like Talia Al-Ghul, Batmans love interest and daughter of his archrival.) Trainedin operatic singing, shes a student of cavernous post-punk goth, music that thrives invery narrow harmonic environments. Her previous record, The Spoils, soundedbaleful, Germanic, smoky. It jumped to conclusions about its own power, as if yoursubmission were already a done deal. But in the months since then, shes grown: her80s Siouxsie Sioux yelp has taken on a slight 60s-girl-group tenderness, and likewiseher songwriting. Some tracks from Stridulum, her new EP on Sacred Bones, comeacross like proper love songs. (I Cant Stand offers solace to a friend whos given upon love: I cant stand to see you this way, she howls from her great height, Itsgonna be alright.) Theyve still got sulfurous echo and war drums in the background,but theyre comforting dreams, not nightmares.Pitchfork April Feature with interview:http://pitchfork.com/features/guest-lists/7786-zola-jesus/
