Last month, metallic phenoms Jinjer announced first-ever live DVD/BluRay release, Live In Los Angeles. The May 17th release marks another important milestone in the band's still-skyrocketing trajectory.  

The release captured the band's triumphant showing on December 22nd of 2022 for a jam-packed appearance the historic Wiltern in Los Angeles, CA. The set's eventual release not only relives the band's meteoric rise in the wake of their celebrated 2021 LP, Wallflower, but also serves to mark the band's 15th anniversary.  

Coupled with the announcement of the spring release, Jinjer first shared the live clip of "Call Me A Symbol" which was featured on the previously mentioned Wallflower full length. The stylishly shot and edited cut showcases one of groove metal's most dynamic practitioners in their element, holding court over a capacity crowd with a barrage of weighty riffage, thunderous percussion and the vocal command of Tatiyana Shmayluk. 

Offering a second showing from the pending release, Jinjer has submitted the live visual from one of their most definitive tracks with the latest music video for "Pisces". 

Speaking of the revisiting of the single, the band spoke to the enduring quality of the track and how it has become an essential offering in the band's catalog. “We somehow missed the point when ‘Pisces’ became more than just a good song for so many people... Only years after its release, we are only now starting to comprehend how people relate to this track, how much it has done for us as a band and why it is so special for so many people. It is always a huge pleasure to perform it live and to hear you sing along. It is almost a spiritual experience…”

The band previously spoke about the decision to release the live set and revisited the whirlwind global tour that was punctuated with a capcity show in one of Los Angeles' most storied venues. 

“Our sold-out Los Angeles show at the end of our 2022 tour was the perfect time and place to do something special - something like a long awaited DVD/live album by JINJER!

The totally packed, legendary venue, the crazy west coast vibes, and most importantly, the band delivering it with full force after being on tour for 6 months around the globe - from Europe to Australia and back to the USA - made this an extra special night.

For the fans who joined us that night at The Wiltern, it was an unforgettable concert, but now every single JINJER supporter around the world can experience and enjoy an ideal set featuring our biggest hits from older albums as well as recent bangers. This is not just a DVD or a live album, but a celebration of the first 15 years of the JINJER story, right before we move on to the next chapter…”
