Jesu is the first album by British experimental music band Jesu, released through Hydra Head Records on 8 December 2004. In February 2005, a double vinyl picture disc set was released by Hydra Head, limited to 1000 copies.
In 2022, Broadrick described "Tired of Me" as "one of my most favorite songs I ever wrote" as it documented an extremely painful period in his life following the dissolution of Godflesh (the musical group he had led since the 1980s) and the break-up of a long-time romantic relationship.
