Finnish space rock trio Skyjoggers drops “Newtonin Kanuuna” video and single

“Newtonin Kanuuna” is the new single and video from Tampere, Finland-based space/psych rock trio Skyjoggers, the latest single from the band’s new LP “12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse”, nearing early May release on Supernatural Cat, the label formed by the Malleus Rock Art Collective and members of Ufomammut.

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. 

On Skyjoggers’ “12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse”, the band focuses on themes such as death, loss, and despair. The 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 band’s unique mix of modern space rock.

“12021: Post-Electric Apocalypse” 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. Malleus Rock Art Collective handled the artwork and design.

With the “Newtonin Kanuuna” single, the band writes:

Newton’s cannonball was a thought experiment Isaac Newton used to hypothesize that the force of gravity was universal, and it was the key force for planetary motion.
