Polish Cinematic Metal Band JASMENO presents official video for the song “His Rebirth” featured by Bart Krysiuk of PATRIATKH.
The upcoming album features guest appearances from members of MORGOTH, THORNS, DØDHEIMSGARD, ARMAGEDON, MASACHIST and many more.
JASMENO was founded in the autumn of 2017 by Sławomir Nietupski, who is responsible for keyboards, synthesizers and programming. The project’s discography includes three releases: “Jasmeno” (2020), “Elixir” (2021) and “Lucid Horizon” (2022). Its music combines elements of progressive rock with melodic electronica inspired by the sounds of the 1970s and 1980s.
After an absence of nearly four years, JASMENO returns with “Assemblage of Cinematic Idioms”, an album that marks a significant shift in the project’s artistic direction. The material has a distinctly cinematic character and is built around the sound of a virtual symphony orchestra. Its concept was inspired by the work of Władysław Hasior, who created multilayered compositions from seemingly incompatible fragments of reality. In a similar way, Sławomir Nietupski brings together a variety of styles, sounds and artistic personalities on the album.
The word “assemblage” in the title refers to the process of creating a coherent whole from diverse elements, while “cinematic idioms” highlights the narrative and evocative nature of the music, which unfolds like a soundtrack to a film that does not exist. The album features six elaborate compositions with a total running time of nearly 50 minutes. Based on lyrics by poet Izabela Turska-Kamrowska, the songs explore everyday doubts and emotions, feelings of separation and alienation, as well as the search for faith and joy in everyday life.
The album’s instrumental foundation is co-created by guitarist Michał Grall of Unblessed Divine, formerly of Sinister, and bassist Artur Ołkowicz, known from Mechanism and Art of Illusion. Brian Gawaski’s powerful vocals also play an essential role in defining the character of the material. The album features numerous guest artists, including Bartłomiej Krysiuk of Patriarkh, Marc Grewe of Morgoth, Snorre Ruch of Thorns, Yusaf Parvez of DHG/Dødheimsgard, Sławomir Maryniewski of Armagedon, Mariusz Domaradzki of Yattering and Ryszard Kramarski of Millenium, as well as Lecia Louise, Sasha Janowicz, Joanna Zondłowska, Łukasz Kowalski, Tomasz Andrzejewski and Robert Kołakowski.
The album was mixed and mastered by Jakub Mańkowski, whose credits include collaborations with Behemoth, Czesław Mozil, Justyna Steczkowska, Me and That Man and Blindead. The JASMENO logo was designed by Christophe Szpajdel, known for his work with Emperor, Aborted and Lorna Shore. Project founder Sławomir Nietupski was responsible for the graphic design, album layout and hand-painted watercolour illustrations, while the band’s photo shoot was created by Agnieszka Stawrosiejko from Colleen Cummings.
“Assemblage of Cinematic Idioms” will be released on September 11, 2026, via Tangled Records. The album will be available as a standard jewel case CD with a 16-page booklet, a CD artbook edition with a 28-page booklet, a transparent gatefold vinyl edition with an 8-page insert, a cassette and a digital release. Pre-orders open today at noon via email at jasmenoofficial@gmail.com.
Sławomir Nietupski comments:
“It is a musical assemblage in its purest form: built from diverse fragments and personalities, yet brought together under a single artistic vision. Much like Hasior’s work, it is not about easily accessible beauty, but about the intensity of the experience and the creation of a unique, multilayered universe. The entire work was created without the use of artificial intelligence.“
On September 1, JASMENO premiered the official music video for “His Rebirth”, featuring a guest appearance by Bartłomiej Krysiuk of Patriarkh. The video was created by Łukasz Unterscheutz and Piotr Pędziszewski.
