JESTER MAJESTY: SET TO UNLEASH "INFINITE MEASURE, FINITE EXISTENCE". POST NEW TRACK "MARRIED TO THE MASTERPLAN"
Turin, Italy based progressive metal warriors JESTER MAJESTY have posted a visualizer for "MARRIED TO THE MASTERPLAN" , a track from the bands anticipated debut release "INFINITE MEASURE, FINITE EXISTENCE", due to be unleashed 12/4/2025 via XTREEM MUSIC.
FROM JESTER MAJESTY:
OUT NOW: “Married to the Masterplan”
Third and last single before the official release of “Infinite Measure, Finite Existence” coming on the 4th December 2025
Italian progressive & technical Thrash/ Death band JESTER MAJESTY, have just launched a visualizer-video of the song "Married to the Masterplan" as a 3rd advance single of what will be their debut full-length album entitled "Infinite Measure, Finite Existence" which will see the light next December 4th through Xtreem Music on CD & Digital formats.
JESTER MAJESTY was founded in 2024 by Alessandro Gargivolo, former frontman of the Thrash Metal band Alchemist, from Turin. After years of channeling aggression and precision through Thrash, Gargivolo began sketching a more refined, ambitious vision, one driven by technical complexity, abstract concepts, and a darker theatricality. What started as a collection of riffs too elaborate and introspective for the Thrash mold evolved into a fully-formed identity: JESTER MAJESTY.
JESTER MAJESTY is built upon the collaboration between Gargivolo and Erymanthon Seth, a virtuoso guitarist now based in Sweden, known for his work with Apocalypse and Feralia. While their previous projects span radically different sonic territories, their mutual obsession with Metal guitar craftsmanship forms the creative core of JESTER MAJESTY.
Gargivolo, who handles all guitars, bass, vocals, and composition, brings a sharp mathematical edge to songwriting, carefully balancing riff-driven aggression with deeply conceptual layers. Seth contributes to the melodic intricacy with a fusion of classical influences on lead guitar and keyboards across key tracks.
JESTER MAJESTY's sound is a modern resurrection of late '80s and '90s progressive and technical Metal, filtered through a dystopian lens. Expect obscure riffs, neoclassical solos, polyrhythms, sudden tempo shifts, and haunting clean vocal sections. There's a noticeable nod to pioneers like Control Denied, Psychotic Waltz and Watchtower, yet the production and conceptual ambitions push the band into a new futuristic territory.
For Fans of: Control Denied, Death, Pharaoh, Psychotic Waltz, Nevermore, Mekong Delta, Watchtower, Anacrusis, Saviour Machine, Crimson Glory, Angel Witch and many more.
JESTER MAJESTY's debut full-length, "Infinite Measure, Finite Existence", is a concept album reflecting on the paradox between humankind's insatiable pursuit of knowledge and its own biological and existential limits. Structured around the idea of "measure", both as a scientific instrument and as a metaphor for control, destiny, and mortality, the album merges dystopian narrative threads with mathematical motifs and philosophical undercurrents.
