Jinjer are very much the band that lived. Since they were announced, which feels a lifetime ago, they have been one of the buzz bands on the bill. Their progressive and groove tinged take on Metalcore managed to achieve the extraordinary and unite both those that like their Metal raw and heavy, with those that are more inclined towards the melodic. There didn't seem to be a single person who wasn’t excited to see what these rapidly rising Ukrainians had to offer. But then the unthinkable, after having been nailed on for so long (escpially when so many others had fallen) quarantine and travel logistics finally did them in. But there is a second chapter. Showing a resilience and a level of commitment far beyond the call of duty, slight shifts in quarantine regulations have meant that Jinjer have decided that they can, after all, come to the ball. Jinjer have not played a single note but they have already won all the love in the room. They will be treated like homecoming heroes to a place they have never been. The stars are aligned this will be Jinjer's year!
