(Used) JESUS JONES cd collection Doubt Perverse
Jesus Jones are a British alternative rock band formed in Wiltshire in 1988. They emerged when rock, indie and electronic dance music were beginning to collide, combining guitars with samples, programmed beats and techno-inspired production.
Their international breakthrough came with “Right Here, Right Now,” but Jesus Jones were never simply a one-hit band. “Real Real Real,” “International Bright Young Thing,” “Info Freako” and “The Devil You Know” show a group determined to push rock music into the electronic age.
Recommended for listeners of EMF, Pop Will Eat Itself, The Shamen and Ned’s Atomic Dustbin.
1. Doubt — Japan Press, No OBI
Released in 1991, Doubt was Jesus Jones’ commercial breakthrough. “Right Here, Right Now” became an international hit, while “Real Real Real,” “International Bright Young Thing” and “Who? Where? Why?” demonstrated how naturally the band could combine pop hooks, distorted guitars and dance rhythms.
Despite its upbeat surface, the album’s title reflects the uncertainty and pressure the band felt after the success of their debut. That tension gives the songs an energy that still sounds immediate.
The Japanese edition adds “Move Me” to the album’s standard programme. This copy no longer has its OBI but remains an interesting pressing for collectors.
2. Doubt
The standard edition of the album that brought Jesus Jones worldwide recognition. Doubt captures a brief period when indie rock, sampling, rave culture and pop music could exist together without clear boundaries.
“Right Here, Right Now” is the obvious entry point, but “Stripped,” “Blissed” and “Welcome Back Victoria” reveal greater depth beyond the major singles. The essential Jesus Jones album for first-time listeners.
3. Perverse — Japan Press with OBI
Released in 1993, Perverse is darker, heavier and more electronic than Doubt. Fascinated by techno and emerging computer technology, the band constructed almost the entire album digitally—an unusually forward-looking approach at the time.
“Zeroes and Ones,” “The Devil You Know,” “The Right Decision” and “Get a Good Thing” combine metallic guitar textures with sequenced rhythms and buzzing synthesizers. The result sits somewhere between alternative rock, techno and industrial music.
The Japanese edition includes the additional tracks “Caricature (New Version)” and “Phoenix” and comes with its OBI. This is the most collectible copy among the four available titles.
4. Perverse
The standard edition of Jesus Jones’ ambitious third album. Perverse rejected the safer option of repeating “Right Here, Right Now” and instead pushed further into computer-based production.
Its technology-focused sound initially confused parts of the rock audience, particularly during the rise of grunge, but the album has aged well. It is the better choice for listeners who prefer the electronic and experimental side of Jesus Jones.
