Iron Jinn are a new twisted psychedelic rock band from the underbelly of Amsterdam comprised of past and present members of The Devil’s Blood, Death Alley, Shaking Godspeed, Birth of Joy and others. Their debut full length on Stickman Records is a frantic album that follows the logic of a dream: none. The nine songs on Iron Jinn's debut are the result of a chaotic accumulation of modern world impressions, information and conversations forcefully pushed through a human funnel: the minds of Oeds Beydals and Wout Kemkens. The album took shape against the background noise of shifting paradigms, universal cramps, massages of the primal brain, plays full of mad lines, and it hesitantly kisses the underbelly that got fed oh-so-well. The band and the music itself sounds downright exciting. The voices of Wout and Oeds reverberate passionately over mesmerizing grooves and pure melodies and harmonies, a rare combination in contemporary (rock) music.
