Jinjer is a Ukrainian progressive groove metal band formed in 2009 in Horlivka, near Donetsk, and signed to Napalm Records since 2016. The four-piece - vocalist Tatiana Shmayluk, guitarist Roman Ibramkhalilov, bassist Eugene Abdukhanov and drummer Vladislav Ulasevich - built a global following through relentless touring and a sound that weaves groove metal, djent and progressive rock with flashes of reggae and funk. Their 2016 single "Pisces", which showcases Shmayluk's instant switch between melodic singing and deep growl, went viral and remains one of the most-streamed metal tracks of the decade. Fifth studio album Duél (February 2025, Napalm Records) charted at #2 on the US Hard Music chart.
Jinjer announced a fall 2025 North American tour as special guests of Trivium on the Struck Dead Tour, with additional support from Heriot.
Jinjer confirmed their first European headline tour in over six years, the Duél Tour 2026, spanning 31 cities from January 23 to March 2, 2026, with guests Unprocessed and Textures.
Fifth studio album Duél was released on February 7, 2025 via Napalm Records, debuting at #2 on the US Hard Music chart and #7 on the UK Rock & Metal chart.
Jinjer joined Babymetal and Bloodywood on a North America tour in early 2025.
Jinjer released their first official live album and DVD, Live in Los Angeles, on May 17, 2024, to mark 15 years as a band.
