Wallflowers is the fourth studio album by Ukrainian metalcore band Jinjer, released on 27 August 2021 by Napalm Records. The album's name refers to the term "wallflower" for someone with an introverted or shy personality type. [5]
Vocalist Tatiana Shmayluk stated in an interview that the album was initially titled As I Boil Ice after one of the songs - this was rejected due to a perceived mismatch between the title and the album artwork. After another song "Introvert" was renamed to the more abstract "Wallflower", the album was given its final title. [5]
The album was announced by the band, along with its release date of 27 August, with the release of the music video for "Vortex" on 17 June 2021. [6] [7]
"Mediator" was released as the second single on 28 July 2021. [8] The title refers to Shmayluk's result on a personality test recommended by her friend.

[10] Following the release of the album, two further singles were released: "Disclosure!" on 15 November 2021 [11] and "Call Me a Symbol" on 8 June 2022. [12]
