"When Jesus Jones first hit the airwaves in 1991 with Right Here, Right Now I thought they had an interesting sone with a cool hook. I bought the album and thought it was ok at best. When Perverse came out in 93 I bought it to see if they had anything else worth listening to. I was floored!! In a time when electronica was just starting to do something interesting Jesus Jones blew everything away with Perverse. This album was at least 5 years ahead of it's time. In my opinion it could be released today and still kick ass. Too bad most of the listening public didn't give them a chance after Doubt. Everyone missed out."

Just buy it

"Once in a while a band will take no notice of managers, record companies or sales figures and produce something absolutely breathtaking which the market just isn't ready for. Perverse is a quintessential example. The overall quality of the album make favourite tracks ultimately down to the listener, but find somewhere where you can give your system some serious revs without fear of complaints and stick "Your Crusade" on repeat.Who needs drugs?"

"Perverse" rises above Jesus Jones' "Doubt" in nearly every

"It's unfortunate that there isn't a solid, radio-friendly single on "Perverse" from Jesus Jones. This is an excellent example of early 1990's techno-pop. Every beat on every track of Perverse is tighter, more creative, and just more fun to listen to than their much more famous album, Doubt."
