“Synthesizers lend themselves just as much to being smashed as guitars. Perhaps even more.” Jesus On Extasy’s rollercoaster career has left its marks on the vocalist who, together with co-founder Chai Deveraux, embarked in 2005 on the mission of packaging suffering & love into digital rock songs. After Jesus on Extasy had shared the stage with other antichrist superstars such as Marilyn Manson, Project Pitchfork, Tool and Skinny Puppy, “the danger of losing touch with reality was great,” Dorian confesses today.

The digital dandies have returned to planet Earth after their exhilaration waned, informing their fans of this fact in the title track of their third album, “No Gods”. Sound guru Tim Schuldt was asked to channel JOE’s energetic fields – “the right man at the right time,” the vocalist with the double D feels. “We wanted our music to sound harder, more rocking. Show steel, sweat and muscles, as we say in the Ruhr area.” Their new motto is to take life into their own hands and rebel if need be. “The true heroes are all those who won’t let themselves be blinded and continue to fight against the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It’s high time somebody set BP’s headquarters on fire.” JOE are bringing the powder keg. Anybody got a light? – Coming with a booklet, entirely in ‘comic book’ design.
