“As a band, we’ve always been fascinated by the paradox of the fool. Humor and darkness often go hand in hand, and it’s through the darkest cracks that light peeks through. ‘Dancing Shadows’ is an exploration of this paradox: the light that comes from the darkness and the truths that lie hidden in a laugh.”
Greek (based at Athens) post punk/alternative rockers Jester Syndrome released their new EP ‘Dancing Shadows‘ and present the music video for the entitled track.
The video was directed and edited by Dimitris Nikolopoulos, and filmed by Dionisis Petroutsopoulos at Action Visual Productions studio.
Jester Syndrome will perform live the new EP ‘Dancing Shadows‘ at An Club (Athens) on 15th on December 2024.
Following the release of their album ‘Shape‘ in February 2024, which showcased a more experimental and matured side of the band, this new project brings them even closer to the essence of their sound, blending powerful melodies with deep, introspective lyrics.
‘Dancing Shadows‘ was released on December 5th of 2024 and is available via Jester Syndrome‘s bandcamp page and all digital platforms and also on CD format, which includes exclusive bonus tracks from ‘Jester Syndrome Made in Hell live session‘, live recordings at Made in Hell studio.
Since their formation in 2020, Jester Syndrome has crafted a unique musical identity.
From their debut single ‘Falling Star‘ to their self-titled EP and the album ‘Shape‘, the band has continuously evolved, pushing the boundaries of creativity and musical expression.
‘Dancing Shadows‘ marks the next chapter in their artistic journey, combining experimentation with an authentic exploration of the human soul.
The album, as the title suggests, is a musical exploration of the relationship between light and darkness.
With ‘Dancing Shadows‘, Jester Syndrome combines their rich sound with lyrics that delve into life’s contradictions, the laughter, and struggles we all face.
Drawing inspiration from the paradox of the ‘jester‘ – a character who brings humor but also speaks the truth – the band has created an album that seeks to find light in the darker sides of the world and within ourselves.
The court Jester, known for his wit and humor, is the sole individual capable of jesting with the king without facing dire consequences.
He alone grasps the subtlety of his jest, embodying an eccentric paradox.
The phenomenon of the jester’s syndrome, though lacking scientific foundation, is an undeniably real rock band from Athens, Greece.
Originating in November 2020 with their single ‘Falling Star‘, which featured in their EP released under the moniker ‘Jester Syndrome‘ on New Year’s Eve of 2021, the Jester Syndrome emerged.
Over the subsequent two years, the Jesters embarked on a journey of experimentation, self-discovery, and growth.
Returning to their creative sanctuary, the Jester’s House, they crafted the LP titled ‘Shape‘.
