Ukrainian metal band Jinjer has shared “Green Serpent,” the next single from its upcoming full-length “Duél,” set to be released Feb. 7, 2025, via Napalm Records. Watch the music video below, and pre-order the album here.
While Jinjer’s previous album, “Wallflowers,” contained noticeably more clean vocals, “Duél” takes on a much more aggressive tone. The band continues its long-lassting collaboration with Max Morton, who co-produced, mixed and mastered the album.
“First of all, it‘s hard to believe that we’re about to release our fifth full-length album!” bassist Eugene Abdukhanov said. “After all the releases we’ve made, finally having ‘Duél’ in our hands and ready to be shared with the world makes us very proud that our band still hasn’t run out of creativity and inspiration. The fact that we still challenge ourselves to release the best music we have ever made with each new release is what keeps Jinjer moving forward.
“This upcoming album was the longest songwriting process we’ve ever had, and it took almost two years to complete. We worked very hard with every free minute we weren’t on tour, recording demos over and over again and always searching for the perfect sound for guitars, bass and drums. It was also the first time that Tatiana did vocal pre-productions, so it’s safe to say that none of our releases were so well thought out and calculated as this one. It pulverizes the boundaries of the modern progressive metal genre but still remains sophisticated, exciting, and extreme all at the same time. We took up the challenge to expand our musical horizons even wider than before in order to cement ‘Duél’ to be the next step in Jinjer‘s musical growth and hopefully the evolution of metal music in general.”
