Sun Kil Moon and Jesu are releasing a collaborative album together, according to the latter band’s mastermind, Justin K. Broadrick. He announced the news via Twitter this morning, but offered no additional details regarding a title or release date. FACT originally reported the news.

The new LP is the latest product of the long-standing collaborative relationship between Mark Kozelek and the Godflesh frontman. Jesu’s 2009 album Opiate Sun came out through Kozelek’s Caldo Verde label (Broadrick later interviewed Kozelek for the Caldo Verde website). In 2013, Kozelek covered Godflesh’s song “Like Rats” (listen below), and the following year he referenced the musician by name in his track “The Possum”.

Here’s Broadrick’s tweet:

A lot of questions about a new Jesu record, I’ve been working on it for some time, it’s a collaboration LP between Sun Kil Moon and Jesu. — Justin K Broadrick (@JKBroadrick) April 27, 2015
