Ukraine’s JINJER are inarguably one of modern metal's hottest and most exciting bands active today. Through their relentless hard work, matchless talent and non-stop touring, the four-piece has manifested its standing as one of the best live acts to date, gaining them a fiercely loyal, rabid fanbase and audience of millions of people at the biggest festivals worldwide - such as Hellfest, Rock am Ring, Graspop Metal Meeting, Download Festival and Rocklahoma USA, plus sold out headline shows across Europe and North America. Bringing their intense stage show and trademark sound to the masses, JINJER will drop their first official live album, Live in Los Angeles, on May 17, 2024.

 

Live in Los Angeles was recorded and filmed on December 22, 2022 at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, CA, USA. It was a spontaneous idea by the entire band to film a live DVD/BluRay which not only captured their live show as raw as possible, but to also signify an end of the pandemic. It was a very trying time for touring bands and the music industry as a whole. For JINJER, this DVD/BluRay was meant to celebrate the rebirth of music and life itself.

 

Live in Los Angeles contains 16 songs in total and will be available in various audio formats, some of them strictly limited. A very special Deluxe Digipak features not only a DVD/BluRay, but also two more songs (“Wallflower” & “Disclosure!”) recorded in Paris in 2023. Live in Los Angeles presents an explosive mixture of JINJER’s discography, topped by their latest studio album and most successful offering to date, 2021’s Wallflowers. The album debuted at #1 on both the US Top New Artist Album charts and Canada’s Hard Music album charts, #2 on the US Hard Music album charts, #5 on the official UK Rock & Metal album charts, and #7 on the German charts. With Wallflowers, which was praised as “... one of the finest – and most important – metal releases of 2021" by Kerrang!, the band graced numerous renowned international magazine covers and cracked the multimillion stream mark with singles “Vortex” and “Mediator” in no time.

 

Fan favorites like “Sit Stay Roll Over”, “Home Back”, “Call Me A Symbol” and the game changing “Pisces” explode with live fury - showcasing an incredibly catchy and unique mix of metalcore, djent, hardcore and groove metal flavored with progressive elements. With feisty growls and soul-shattering clean vocals, the live energy of frontwoman Tatiana Shmayluk leaves the listener breathless, whilst lethally groovy riffs and multifarious drums culminate to a technical masterpiece, cutting sharp like a razorblade. Live in Los Angeles is JINJER at the top of their game - breaking every rule in heavy metal by doing things their very own way, and preparing fans for the next step of their world domination!
