“It’s an amazing and slightly surreal feeling to finally have our album out. Last year things looked very uncertain, and for a while we had no idea if it would ever see the light of day, but after many trials and tribulations it’s finally here! We hope you find the time to check it out and that it enriches the lives of the people that it reaches.” –Viljami Jupiter Wenttola

Finland is known as the land of metal, but so far has yet to offer the world a breakthrough progressive metal act. Joviac has been working tirelessly since 2017 to change that. With the singular vision of combining the compositional freedom of progressive music, the full range of human emotion, addictive hooks and crafty arrangements, the end result is a versatile and deep marriage of catchy riffs and melodies with a conceptual and thoughtful twist.
 Joviac is a seasoned live band with countless shows under its belt and looking to branch out globally in a BIG way.
 

The band has released two albums to date with the latest full-length
“Here And Now” reaching the #8 spot on the official Finnish charts for physical albums!
