After recently revealing details on their upcoming second album, Finish Occult Rockers JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES have just announced that they accepted KING DIAMOND’s offer to join him on the US tour this fall.

Stated KING DIAMOND: “KING DIAMOND would like to welcome JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES as the opening act for the North American tour this fall. The occult rock group from Kuopio, Finland, was personally selected by King Diamond himself to be the openers on the tour.”

Commented the bands’ record label Svart Records: “There are two rather important matters happening in the JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES camp this fall. First, the band are supporting KING DIAMOND on his North American tour in October and November. JATAO also have recorded two new songs, which will be released on November 15th on ten inch vinyl. Read the official transmission from the band headquarters below and stream the song Castaneda right here.”

Commented JATAO: “A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you . . . Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself alone, one question . . . Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t it is of no use. Thus spoke Castaneda, and what wise words they are. Written thoughts can sometimes make a profound impact upon others, even though they are rarely found. Music holds the same power. We see our art as a path to eternity’s veil, a place where the notes we play echo in infinite artistic freedom. Where we feed our minds and thus draw strength to our mundane lives. It keeps us sane, and throws colors to our personal growth. We are alive once again, and it brings great joy to our hearts, when we transmit our sonic waves into your minds as well. Hope you all find what you are searching for…

In other news, the Atlanta, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles shows on the tour are SOLD OUT! Additionally, only a handful of tickets remain for the Seattle, WA date. Get your tickets now before they are gone!

Two years after releasing their eponymous debut album, Finish Occult Rockers JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES now reveal first details on their sophomore attempt. An announcement of their Record Label SVART RECORDS published on April 9th via Facebook reads as follows: “Today, white-hot occult rockers Jess and the Ancient Ones reveal news of their next album for SVART RECORDS, which follows the equally critically acclaimed Astral Sabbat EP (2013) and the self-titled debut album (2012), both released worldwide by SVART. A statement from the band reads as thus: “After a needed break, we have once again put the wheels of JATAO in motion. Writing process has began, and the band is working hard to create a follow-up to the debut album – so far, so good, as we already have a few new songs in our hands. A natural progress has taken its place, as the material has a lots refreshing elements within it, but one will definitely still identify the creators.”

Continuing, the band says: “When the summer is over, the call of the studio will be inevitable. The second album will most likely be released in early 2015, through SVART RECORDS. More accurate information concerning the release will be announced later. If you want to keep track, be sure to check out the virtual world. Also, some shows are being booked for the summer, and the first announced appearance will happen at Bergen, Norway. It’s an indoor festival called ‘Beyond the Gates.’ So if you want to catch us live, that’s the place to be! Be all that you can be, JATAO.”
