The Finnish space/psych-rock band SKYJOGGERS is set to release their latest album 12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse, dropping on May 2nd via Supernatural Cat. This exciting release from the Tampere-based trio continues to explore the realms of cosmic and psychedelic music, blending space rock with heavier elements like black and doom metal.
Crafted amidst the backdrop of global turbulence such as pandemics and wildfires, this album channels themes of death, loss, and despair into a hopeful soundscape. It promises to showcase SKYJOGGERS at their heaviest yet, embracing experimental textures and hypnotic riffs.
Recorded at Soundwell Studios in Espoo and involving key collaborators like Janne Hakanen and Johannes Latva, the album benefits from the artistic touch of the Malleus Rock Art Collective for its design.
Reflecting on their collaboration with the Supernatural Cat label, the band shares, “We first met Ufomammut in Warsaw a few years ago while on our first European tour. We bonded over our shared love of music, art, and screen printing. It was quite a surprise when they asked us if we’d be interested in releasing our next album through Supernatural Cat; we said yes right away!”
Urlo from Ufomammut and Malleus also adds, “Sometimes we are really impressed by a band when Poia and I are on tour with Ufomammut. SKYJOGGERS were a bolt from the blue, watching them play really amazed us. And we are so happy that their amazing new album is coming out on Supernatural Cat!”
Their first single, “Tessæil,” is an epic journey lasting nearly thirteen minutes. Described as “polyrhythms, screeching guitars, and wailing sirens block out the sun and bring about an auditive nuclear Winter,” this track promises a powerful conclusion to the album.
SKYJOGGERS invites you to experience the video for “Tessæil” now on YouTube and stream the song on all platforms. The album is available for pre-order in CD, LP, and digital formats through Supernatural Cat.
