Hey Leon, thanks for coming back to Jinjer. The song is about the fighting in their native Ukraine back in 2014, especially in the eastern part where they are from. They want their home back. The song is from the 2019 album Macro, before the current fighting started, and sadly this still applies today. They have family back home that they can't go visit.
Tatiana is amazing, she can switch between styles seamlessly. Love how low she get in this song. "Pisces" , the first song you did, is from 2016. The most recent album is the 4th record Wallflowers , released 2021. They are working on more music currently, don't know when it might come out. "Vortex" is a good one from that Wallflowers album.
This song represents their first refugee experience during the 2014 conflict with Russian imagined through the eyes of a child. The three straw figures at the tea party are all characters from an Ukrainian folktale. The dissonance in the opening was placed there to give the listener the same sense of unease as a child would when confronted with the reality of war. Good reaction. (Subbed)
You could try “I Speak Astronomy” (OMV) for less growls while still maintaining the Jinjer hard pace sound in what is their only sort of love song/ballad/rock/metal kind of song. It’s the “Jinjer genre”.
Jinjer has three songs with clean vocals only, Prologue 2:52 Beggars' Dance 2:07 these go together & are the first and last songs of King of Everything album, then Bad Water is the only other clean vocals.
Metal band thank you
♥️
Jinjer is from Ukraine. "Home Back" is a 2019 release which is very much of a passionate anti-war song inspired by their experiences during & since the 2014 Russian annexation of Crimea & conflict with Russian-backed separatist militias in eastern Ukraine, where 3 of the 4 of them are from. Obviously, this song has even greater significance since the full-scale Russian invasion in February 2022. After the full-scale invasion, the 3 male members of the band were not legally permitted to leave Ukraine until June 2022 (if memory serves), when the government granted them the special status of "cultural ambassadors", after which Jinjer launched a European tour followed by a North American tour.
In part, "Home Back" presents war as it might appear through the eyes of a child in order to depict how the brutality of war destroys childlike innocence.
I highly recommend this article from Kerrang! to provide you with some context from the perspective of some members of the band: Jinjer: “We are reminding people that the war is still on”.
I also highly recommend re-watching the video after reading the article and some of these RUclips comments as you will have a fuller appreciation of Jinjer's artistry. I also recommend following along with the lyrics while watching the video.
Home Back Lyrics
What is this? What is this mess?
What's that noise? Is this a death sentence?
Terrifying silhouettes Rising over the motherland.
Are those the fireworks?
No, it's a military quirk.
Is it a mermaid singing?
No, it's a siren screaming.
Is it an angel watching over us?
It's an air-fighter making a fuss.
Is it a unicorn galloping down the street?
No, those are soldiers' boots marching to the beat.
Marching to the beat.
Is it an angel watching over us?
Is it an air-fighter making a fuss?
Why is this party looking so bizarre?
A party? No, this is W.A.R.
My darling, did we wake up like this?
Isolated bodies in a boudoir of helplessness.
A bullet is an early bird, a midnight owl.
Morning greetings of a rooster are replaced.
With fire in a hole, fire in a hole.
My dear, do we have to go to sleep like that?
With a soothing cocktail and the hundredth cigarette.
Morning greetings of a rooster are replaced.
With fire in a hole.
Our beds are cold.
As cold as basement floor.
Our beds are cold.
As cold as basement floor.
This house is not our shelter anymore.
This house is not our shelter anymore.
This house is not our shelter anymore.
Anymore
Home is not a building.
Home is liberty.
A place where memories live.
In prosperity and peace.
I came back home so I want my home back.
I came back home so I want my home back.
Don't you leave us homeless.
Don't you leave us homeless.
Homeless, homeless.
Thank you, Leon! I love Home Back! Not only for the fantastic music and vocals, but because for me, it is not only a call against war, but connecting the dots that all of these US backed coups and proxy wars have intentionally prevented global cooperation to address climate collapse, so wanting our Home Back is an idea not only for all the war refugees but also for all life on earth about to lose our home ("don't you leave us homeless"). Thank you for reacting to it!
More of the history behind it: in 2014 was the US backed coup led by Ukrainian fascists (Azov Battalion, Banderites, etc) that started a civil war (or just pogroms) where for eight years the Ukrainian military, led by Ukrainian fascists, killed 14 thousand Russian speaking Ukrainians in the Donbas region including Donetsk (where Jinjer formed). The "fire in the hole" lyric in Home Back is about the Ukrainian military killing Russian speaking Ukrainians. You can find an old video of Tatiana saying she's afraid her government will shoot her. That's what Jinjer had to flee when they left the Donbas region to be an essentially homeless/refugee band on tour for years on end. Russia got involved in 2022 (after eight years of trying to use diplomacy to resolve the aggression by the US) to stop the US from handing nuclear weapons to the US backed fascists in Ukraine. The CIA and its cutout NED have always and continue to fund, arm and train fascists like this all over the world for the express purpose of staging coups like the one in Ukraine in 2014.
Azov Battalion, Right Sector and others were placed in the Donbas to kill as many Russian speaking Ukrainians as they could get away with, with multiple failed attempts to blame Russia for these murders. The murders were taking place in the Donbas, which is why Jinjer had to flee that part of Ukraine (they had to decide between staying and being unable to tour or leaving family and friends to tour and being unable to return more than once per year).
Sadly, I see many fellow Jinjer fans (and others) caught up by the US war profiteering propaganda that makes them think Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014. They sometimes point to Crimea. Crimea would have been more difficult for those US backed Ukrainian fascist groups, because there were historic reasons that Russia already had military bases in Crimea, none were added after the 2014 US backed coup, which is when the people in Crimea voted to leave Ukraine because they did not recognize the US backed coup regime which was de facto run by the US backed Ukrainian fascists (you can find video of those fascists pointing guns at the Ukrainian parliament).
A friend of Jinjer's bassist Eugene was killed by Ukrainian fascists (not by Russians). When you listen to Jinjer's song Sit Stay Roll Over, take note that it has lyrics (by Eugene) directly quoting the mantra of some of these Ukrainian fascists, "one path, one past, one trust", which is then flipped in the lyrics to, "it's not one's path, it's not one's past, it's not one's trust, it's not MY path, it's not MY past, it's NOT MY TRUST!" Make sure if you get any part of that song stuck in your head, it's the flipped part and not the fascist motto. At least 87 to 95% of the world does not believe the US war profiteering propaganda, I just hope that number keeps going up!
Again, thank you, Leon, for this reaction and for bringing more of the fantastic music of Jinjer to more people! ❤️🖤🤘
