Jess And The Ancient Ones premiere a music video for the new single »World Paranormal«

Finnish occult rockers Jess And The Ancient Ones premiere a music video for the new single »World Paranormal« taken from their latest studio album, »Vertigo«, out on May 21st, 2021 via Svart Records. Video by Dark Sprite Videos.

Says the band: “’I want to believe’. That line always takes me back to a certain 90’s television protagonist, so theres a hint of pop culture nostalgia within the shapes of »World Paranormal«. Dark Sprite video made this mesmerizing visual support to help us to spread our message across the planes. Some copies of »Vertigo« are still available, so grab yours before they vanish.”

From Svart Records:

The Savonian occult rock behemoth Jess And The Ancient Ones have emerged with a new album! Their brand of heavy guitar and organ-led swagger has progressed from the twin guitar metal blast of yesteryear to Jess And The Ancient Ones’ very own take on soulful late sixties garage psychedelia. Titled »Vertigo«, the new record is set for release on Svart Records on May 21st this year with a foreboding sound of lysergic doom.

What began on the previous record, »The Horse & Other Weird Tales« is taken further and deeper, towards a conclusion on »Vertigo«. Songwriter and guitarist Thomas Corpse comments, “To me this album sounds like a dark horse – a brother to the previous album. There’s a strange ominous feeling that hovers upon the entire album, maybe it’s the feeling of nostalgia that’s arising from the lyrics.”

Wrapped in a crude tornado-adorned old school sleeve, the album’s eight tracks bubble in a boiling cauldron of vintage pop culture influence and occult-tinged paranoia. Ranging from the softly fiery opening track »Burning Of The Velvet Fires« to the almost heavy metal-ish nihilistic banger »Born To Kill«, »Vertigo« is a spiraling journey of heavy Finnish psych rock at its finest.

01. Burning Of The Velvet Fires
