Cloud Over Jupiter returns with their 4th release, Atomic Jupiter.
Led by multi-instrumentalist Jerry King and featuring long-time original Jupiter member, Michele King, the music continues its often-dangerous path into the future of progressive rock, from beautiful orchestrations of color to revealing a captivating new sonic dimension of Lovecraftian horrors.

About The Album:
The concept of the album and, the concept of the Cloud Over Jupiter band and music, is to represent the horror of futurism through music, and/or the beauty and delicate nature of music and Love. It’s the constant contrast between the two. The terror of LEVIATHAN! LEVIATHAN! And LOVE CRAFT countered with the delicate symphony of LEVITATION TO EDEN or LAST SHIP TO AVALON. Cloud Over Jupiter represents the balance between Horror and Love, and (hopefully) pushes the limits of each, all with the eerie unknowns of outer space and the unknowns of the Future. Will humanity achieve reaching the Eden that we strive for? Or will the future awaken Dark Horrors as we attempt to conquer the depths of Space?
In the Press
“Atomic Jupiter” from the musical workshop of CLOUD OVER JUPITER, a series of atomically musical explorations that leaves the name of the advanced American rocker of our times very high. Jerry King’s eclectic musical vision is a great treasure for the ideal of artistic rock, as captured in this work by CLOUD OVER JUPITER for the current year 2024.
