“Get wrecked by riffs.” – Metal Injection

Metal Injection is streaming 12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse, the cosmic new LP from Tampere, Finland-based space/psych rock trio, SKYJOGGERS. The premiere precedes the album’s release this Friday on Supernatural Cat, the label formed by the Malleus Rock Art Collective and members of Ufomammut.

Fusing the exhilarating elements of space rock and psychedelic soundscapes, SKYJOGGERS‘ music captures the essence of cosmic exploration, characterized by hypnotic riffs and an experimental approach that pushes boundaries. With a focus on dynamic performances and rich instrumental textures, the band – Alexi Belle (guitars, effects), Juan Rico (bass, synth, vocals), and Gabo Sabor (drums, vocals) – invites listeners on a journey through uncharted musical territories.

On SKYJOGGERS’ 12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse, the band focuses on themes such as death, loss, and despair. The writing of the album took place during the pandemic, forest fires in the Amazon, and wars around the planet; The band took inspiration from such themes trying to channel the hard topics into something beautiful shining a ray of hope and light into the world through music. The album showcases the heaviest side of SKYJOGGERS heard to this day, bringing elements of black and doom metal into the band’s unique mix of modern space rock.

12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse was recorded at Soundwell Studios, Espoo by Janne Hakanen who also took over mastering duties, with additional recordings by Johannes Latva in Soossila, Tampere, and was mixed by Niko Lehdontie. Malleus Rock Art Collective handled the artwork and design.

The band offers, “12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse is a big milestone for us. After eight years of being together as a band, it feels like we’ve found a way for each one of us to shine in the writing and recording process. These four songs have been with us since the pandemic, so doing a big release tour is just the right way to welcome this album into the world. We feel beyond overwhelmed to have the album released by Supernatural Cat. Working together with the label has been great and has given us a good boost in our confidence.”
