Label Description:

Originally released on Electric Deluxe, the label from Speedy J / Jochem Paap, in 2016.

Electric Deluxe recently ceased operating, and releases have been returned to the artists.

John Twells of FACT wrote :
“The doomy, distorted grind of Godflesh and Jesu is certainly still present, but woven into a wheezing 4/4 template that doesn’t sound a million miles from Andy Stott’s patented ‘knackered house’ or a Surgeon record on the wrong speed being played through a broken car stereo.”

Writing for The Quietus, Tristan Bath said :
“So frank and brutal are the whiteknuckled grooves and aggression on Rise Above it’s tougher than ever to imagine where Broadrick will go next.”

Resident Advisor reviewer Justin Farrar wrote :
“It’s a rare musician who could make music this bleak sound utterly engrossing.”

Ben Hudgins of Heathen Harvest called Rise Above “unadulterated machine music that’s been crafted by a master engineer.”
