Metal Wani’s Adam Hayward caught up with Jinjer bassist Eugene Abdiukhanov at this year's Download Festival, UK. Check out the clip below.

On the release of Micro

Eugene: “First of all, the recording for the new album is done, just yesterday the vocals have been done. Micro isn’t really the follow up to the King Of Everything, the new album is the successor to Micro. There is a thread that keeps going from the upcoming album to Micro.”

On Tatiana’s vocal range

Eugene: “She doesn’t warm up before going on stage, it's her unique skill and talent. She sings very well; her growling skills is something that compliments her vocal skills.”

On the video for “Pisces” and the 21 million hits on YouTube

Eugene: “We couldn’t expect or imagine anything like this happening now. Honestly, nobody believed in the song until the video came out. It was one of mine and Tatiana’s. Nothing can be compared, though, with the video for 'Pisces'.”

Hot off the heels of the news that numerous North American dates with special guests The Browning being upgraded to bigger venues and some shows near the sell out point, Jinjer have also announced a full blown European headline tour in November/December to coincide with the release of their new album.

Jinjer seem determined to take over the world one country at a time and by any means necessary: “Europe! We are coming for you! The time has come to show you the fiercest side of Jinjer ever, with a new album, new songs as well as all our older hits and a few surprises in-between. We know a lot of you have been waiting for us to do a proper headline tour with our own production and that time has finally come! Join us this November/December throughout Europe and the United Kingdom and help us celebrate this new era with a bang!”
