Finnish Space- and Psych-Rock Trio SKYJOGGERS Reveals ”12021 : Post-Electric Apocalypse” Album Details + First Video Single!

Skyjoggers, the innovative band from Tampere, Finland, has signed to Supernatural Cat Recordings, the Italian label run by members of Malleus Rock Art Lab and Ufomammut, for the release of their new studio album, entitled “12021 : Post-Electric Apocalypse”, scheduled for May 2, 2025!

“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,” Skyjoggers comment. “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!”

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, Skyjoggers invites listeners on a journey through uncharted musical territories.

With “Tessæil”, the trio is presenting a first track taken off their forthcoming album, an epic, over 12-minutes long ride through “polyrythms, screetching guitars and wailing sirens block out the sun and bring about an auditive nuclear winter,“ the band writes. “This massive track ends 12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse like a weapon of mass destruction; leaving nothing in its wake.” 

On “12021 : Post-Electric Apocalypse“, Skyjoggers focus on themes such as death, loss and despair. 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 bands unique mix of modern space rock.

The album 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.

In support of “12021 : Post-Electric Apocalypse“, the band has announced an extensive album release tour to kick off in early May, including appearances at Desertfest Berlin and Esbjerg Fuzztival. Find all upcoming dates listed below!
