Jesus Jones is a British alternative rock band formed in the 1980s. The band was initially started by Mike Edwards and Simon Matthews, who later met Alan Doughty. After unsuccessful attempts under different names, Jesus Jones was born with the addition of Iain Baker and Jerry de Abela Borg. They signed a deal with Food Records after persistent efforts, releasing their demo which included popular tracks like "Info Freako," "Cut & Dried," and "Welcome Back Victoria."
However, when EMI became more involved in Food Records, they exerted more control over Jesus Jones' music, resulting in their album "Already" suffering from delayed release and lack of label support. Eventually dropped by the label, Mike Edwards remained as part of the band while Gen left due to conflicting schedules with other projects.
The band continued with Tony Arthy as their new drummer and signed with Koch Records. Their album "London" received critical acclaim but did not achieve commercial success. Despite this setback, Jesus Jones released the 4-track single "Culture Vulture," allowing fans to create their own mixes using elements from the title track.

Jesus Jones (Mike Edwards - guitar, vocals; Tony de Borg - guitars; Al Doughty - bass; Gen - drums; and Iain Baker - keyboards, samples) arrived on the scene in 1989 with three charting singles and a charting debut album "Liquidizer". The band followed this with many more hit singles and the very successful albums "Doubt" (1991), and "Perverse" (1993). 

Fourth album "Already" (August 1997) featured the hit singles "The Next Big Thing" and "Chemical #1", but was the last album by the band until 2001. 

Here's what Iain Baker has to say about this album: "In the mid-90s, Britpop was most definitely in the ascendant. In a musical climate which had now reverted further back towards the 60s, with lad-rock, dad-rock and basically, bad-rock, we resolutely followed our own path. That still meant dance music was our primary influence, and the internal language of techno, drum'n'bass or hardcore defined how we approached our new material." 

Featuring the hit singles "The Next Big Thing" and "Chemical #1", the album is pressed on translucent vinyl.
