Kiev, Ukraine-based progressive stoner rock band Stoned Jesus issued fourth full-length studio album Pilgrims<\/em> on September 9th, 2018 through Napalm Records.<\/p>\n

The band commented: \u201cThis record was inspired by our relentless touring and the feelings you get \u2013 or more precisely you lose \u2013 because of it. It\u2019s weird how disconnected one becomes when constantly surrounded by people. Musically it\u2019s pretty different from what we\u2019ve done, it\u2019s more song-oriented but simultaneously more challenging than before \u2013 sonically and structurally.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pilgrims<\/em> was recorded and mixed at Lipky Zvukozapys in Kiev, and mastered at Metropolis Studios in London, England.<\/p>\n

Stoned Jesus\u2019 line-up is as follows;<\/p>\n

Igor Sydorenko (vocals and guitars)
\nSerhij Sljussar (bass)
\nDmytro Zinchenko (drums)<\/p>\n

Pilgrims<\/em> was made available as a limited edition four-page digipak CD, various LP gatefolds in different colours, and digital.<\/p>\n

Music videos were filmed for the tracks \u2018Hands Resist Him\u2019, \u2018Thessalia\u2019, and \u2018Apathy\u2019. Stoned Jesus commented regarding \u2018Apathy\u2019: \u201c\u2018Apathy\u2019 is the brainchild of our bass player Sergii. He wrote the music, came up with the original idea for the video, filmed our post-show apathies on lo-fi Samsung vp-w70 camera and even edited the video himself! Unlike most tour videos by other bands, this one shows you the real wild life on the backstage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Third studio record The Harvest<\/em> was released in February 2015 via Moon Records.<\/p>\n
