Dutch Experimental Psychedelic Rock Band, Iron Jinn, Unveils Second Video from Upcoming Live Album

Experimental psychedelic rock ensemble Iron Jinn, announces the release of “Truth Is Your Dagger”, the second video from their highly anticipated live album, “Live At Roadburn.” The band, comprised of seasoned musicians Oeds Beydals (The Devil’s Blood, Death Alley), Wout Kemkens (Shaking Godspeed, De Niemanders), Bob Hogenelst (Birth of Joy), Gerben Bielderman (Pauw), and Jarno Van Es, delivers a captivating musical experience that blends intricate guitar work, powerful drumming, and ethereal atmospheres.

Iron Jinn was formed by guitarists and songwriters Oeds Beydals and Wout Kemkens, both with a rich history in bands like Death Alley and Shaking Godspeed. The band’s live debut at Roadburn 2018 marked the beginning of a creative journey that led to the recording of their debut album in the spring of 2021, featuring drummer Bob Hogenelst and later, bassist Gerben Bielderman.

To elevate the live experience, Iron Jinn welcomed Jarno Van Es on keys, adding a unique layer to their sound. The live show embraced spontaneous improvisation and fresh energy, infusing a dynamic and vibrant essence into the studio versions of their songs.

“This live version of ‘Truth Is Your Dagger’ is definitely one of the main reasons why we wanted to put out this show as a live album. It was the first time we jammed it this particular way and it just clicked. Special guest on keys Jarno Van Es (since this show a full band member) adds a big scoop of ‘Bitches Brew’ and he and Oeds dive into some minimal territories evoking a somewhat heavier Steve Reich, since then we dubbed it ‘Reich & Roll.’ It’s moments like these why we believe this record needs to be out there.” – Wout Kemkens

“Live At Roadburn” is set for release on 2 x 180g heavy weight black vinyl on April 5th via Lay Bare Recordings. Don’t miss the chance to embark on a sonic journey with Iron Jinn, as they showcase their early stage in this remarkable musical expedition.
