Jess and the Ancient Ones Announce Release of New Single, “In Levitating Secret Dreams”!

jatao_20152015 has been an absolutely phenomenal year for new hard rock/metal releases.  We have seen new albums from Iron Maiden, Kadavar, Christian Mistress, Graveyard, and The Exploding Eyes Orchestra just to name a few.  Just when I thought 2015 couldn’t get any more fucking epic, Finnish psych/occult rock masters  Jess and the Ancient Ones announce that their new single release, In Levitating Secret Dreams!  Here’s the official release from band’s Facebook page:

News from the JATAO ranch speak of things most joyful! The album recording sessions are now long gone, and the finishing touches have been laid in London at Orgone Studios. Jaime Arellano enchanted and mastered the soundscape with his sonic wizardy, and so the journey that started with “Castaneda” came to a worthy finish.

Rumors of nine new songs have spread to attention, and it is believed that they will soon travel to you all brothers and sisters, but first there must be an appetizer. A seven inch single, I tell you!

“In Levitating Secret Dreams” will be released in November through Svart Records. A-side features the title track which is JATAO original, and the B-side is a Dead Moon cover “Dead in the Saddle”. Our beloved flying Finns wanted to salute this classic power trio from Portland. A true behemoth of raw energy! The cover song will not make an appearance on the album itself. Or so I heard.

Rumors also tell that a video is being made to accompany the single. It’s been said that the hands of Costin Chioreanu are crafting something unique in his workshops at Twilight 13 Media. That man is possessed in the most creative way, and the band surely is anxiously waiting for his art to be revealed to all.

This was the second transmission from Radio Aquarius. The source to all things related to Jess and the Ancient Ones.

Have love, will travel

All I can say is that I’m absolutely giddy over this news.  A new Jess and the Ancient Ones album is something I didn’t think would come so soon but I am absolutely ecstatic!  Hopefully this means that we will see a tour sometime in the spring of 2016?  Fingers crossed on this one for sure.
