@@bafumat Nope. They're in the Ukraine. They canceled the tour to focus on what's going on in their homeland. Their bassist posted a video on their RUclips page.
As a teacher, I'm always proud when one of my students knows something that I don't know. I think that if you are not capable of this feeling, you souldn't be a teacher. A good teacher is first and foremost a good student.
being from the Caribbean like you've stated earlier, you might really enjoy Judgement/Punishment by Jinjer. Reggae music is Tatiana's favorite genre (outside of metal) and it shows in that track. There's a music video and a live one take Vocal of Tatiana in the booth. Either one is amazing.
All of Tati's lyrics are deep...their official videos are cinematic masterpieces, and they are phenomenal live Perrenial (live at Waken)... Who is Gonna Be the One (live).. Judgement and Punishment (Tati's one take)... Sit, Stay, Roll Over is brutal... Just a few to get you into the groove 🔥
Great reaction! Jinjer, making metalheads out of non-metal listeners everywhere. You need to hear them live, either "Perennial" (live at Wacken) or "Perrenial (live at Waken) or "Who is Gonna Be the One" (live). Also praying the guys are staying safe.
You aren’t thinking too deep. Tatiana has said it is about anyone trying to put themselves above others and impose their values. Good call. :) One of their deepest songs is Home Back about their hometown getting caught in the 2014 war in eastern Ukraine, which is even more heartbreaking today. The video is quite well done by video producers in Kyiv. Eugene their bassist and manager, Roman the guitarist, and Vlad the drummer are all in Kyiv last we've heard. Tatiana is in the US with husband Alex Lopez of Suicide Silence. Eugene also posted a video address on the Jinjer Metal Band channel.
My favourite Jinjer performance is "Who is Gonna be the One" (Live, Napalm records) but "Home Back" (OMV) unfortunately seems more appropriate today. Good reaction. (subbed)
It's nice to see a reactor who's able to think and put a train of thought into a coherent speech, instead of just mumble and say "like" or "know what I'm saying" every two words, as if we're supposed to know what they're saying when they're not saying anything. People who follow reaction channels know who I'm talking about. Anyway, you interpreted the lyrics correctly. 🙂
@@leviathan3630 - Yeah but they shouldn't be used to replace normal communication, even if minimal. It's funny, to say the least, that people who are used to listen to someone "spitting" 10 words per second can't themselves put together three or four and make a coherent sentence.
Well, this Ukrainian 4 piece unit is something else. They've got a huge catalogue. Is it progressive, fusion or just freaky metal? I think all three. At this moment the guys of the band are stuck in Kiev surrounded by the Russian army. It's gonna get dangerously rough for them the coming weeks. I hope they survive and will be touring again some day. So Jinjer can use some attention or TLC the coming period. In this case I recommend you my favorite and blistering live performance: 'Who is Gonna Be the One'. You gonna love it.
Also you can hear Gwen Stefani's influence in her cleans. Such a talented band. Unique writing and tone. Top class technique. The complete package musically in every way.
Two quick notes: First, it's actually "false cord" with a hard "C". Saying vocal "chords" is a misspelling, and a "chord" is a collection of musical notes. Secondly, if you're looking to work on your screaming, check out the Voice Hacks channel and Mary Z. She's a great screamer herself (and the frontwoman for Helion Prime), and has some really good free lessons. As for recommendations, "Home Back" and "Who's Gonna Be The One" are depressingly relevant. For some non-Jinjer metal, Handshake With Hell from Arch Enemy is a great track, and if you're looking for the all-time queen of false cord screams, check out "Nemesis" or "Ravenous" from Arch Enemy with Angela Gossow -- or "Do or Die" (feat. Angela Gossow) from Amaranth.
Dude! Love your reactions! Welcome to the epic journey that is jinjer! Last time I saw them live I head banged so hard my eyelashes came off! Please go see them if you're able
The fact that you enjoy the music, genre, and lyrics is very enjoyable to see. Like many I was initially drawn into Jinjer by Tati's amazing vocals, but it wasn't long until I discovered the amazing musicianship of the band and the absolute beauty of Tati's songwriting. Enjoy the journey, it's amazing!
I love when ppl who listen to rap or hip hop listen to Jinjer because you always look at the lyrics and figure out the intent the band has for the song. This song in particular ppl start out thinking it’s church or school but you understand it’s about authority figures. Just love it! I’m sure you’ve seen it but she writes the lyrics so the fact that English is her second language and the lyrics are so deep is amazing to me still after listening to them for so long. TY for doing this one.
...damn cuz...love the reactions to my favorite band of all time...at 63 that's saying something...maybe check out a true live performance...the best imo is "whos gonna be the one" live...oh btw im from key west(conchy joe lol)...grandparents from rock sound eleuthera...peace brother...thanks....
Jinjer is one of a kind. The original members no longer play in the band. That being said Tatiana is a beast when it comes to her growl and then clean singing. Love this song as it shows you some of both. Check out Judgement (and Punishment) Perennial (live) Vortex Home back. You won't go wrong going down this rabbit hole. Great reaction
JINJER has been my new thing for about a year. Tatiana gets my heart for best female singers. If you dig that little “rap” deal. You should check out the band Despised Icons song MVP. It’s an interesting piece.
You have to be my favorite. I swear I have watched 100’s of reactions to this. Well what ever is out there ha ha. I love your mind man. Love it. You can do this. Love your method. Well done.
Thats what you get when you find something that really speaks to you. If you listen to Home Free you'll think, "these dang songs are too short" as well.
Hella good reaction! I'm so glad you're enjoying their content. One of my favorites is I Speak Astronomy. Hopefully you'll get to that one soon. The official video if you would. It's amazing! 😉
You're spot on honestly. It's meant to question authority, since not everyone in a position of authority actually deserves to be in that position, has it all figured out themselves, or even your best interest in mind. Speaking of false teachings… It's false cords, like vocal cords, not chords. A chord is something you play on a guitar, when hitting multiple notes.
This took my song of the year for 2019. That chilled section, when Tatiana comes back in with one of her most tender vocals, is still one of my favourite things from them. :) p.s. it's vocal *cords* - the "h" only appears when talking about musical terms regarding multiple notes at once.... & just to keep you on your toes, that "h" is silent, so it's still pronounced "kords"! ;)
Love your reactions. Subscribed. Regarding this video and your comment “people with authority over us”…the only authority they have is what we GIVE THEM. And they’re scared to death of us finally realizing that.
Other people mentioned it, but I think you would really enjoy Tatiana's single take vocal performance of Judgment and Punishment - It has an added reggae vibe which is a lot of fun and it's a great song. Also, Home Back. You like to dive into lyrics and meaning if songs, and given recent events this would be worth doing for sure. Note that some of the song structure and beat is purposely meant to be uncomfortable, because it's about their home town being bombed by Russia in 2014 - The band left during this, then moved back to Ukraine afterward because it's their home. Jinjer then wrote this song about wanting to get their Home Back. Not just the physical home, but the liberty and peace needed for something to be your sanctuary... And now a couple years later their home is being invaded and destroyed once again. It's quite a sad situation, but their anger in the song is totally justified.
When you do the Devil horns, tuck your thumb in, otherwise, you’re just saying I love you in ASL. I not dogging you, just informing you. Thanks for revisiting my girl, Tatiana, and the great band, Jinjer!
I think Jinjer songs probably end the way they do to keep them accessible. They have really come in as underdogs, all of them have been at it for years and years as seasoned musicians and performers. But coming up as a metal band in war-torn Ukraine, and being seen beyond there, is a pretty big challenge. It's really only recently that they've broken through to the mainstream and been recognized for their sonic identity and accomplishments as a creative force. They're kind of in their "So you see us now, here's what we do." showcasing phase. It's common for bands in this genre to start off a bit more accessible and then delve more into what they can do with their style across albums, after getting noticed. The more indulgent, 'full form' stuff comes later. And then maybe another refinement stage. There's a give and take, like any other genre. I think Jinjer is one of the best things we've gotten in metal in a long time. For all of the great stuff that's come out, I often still find myself jaded, where a band like Jinjer carries a torch for everything that a good metal band can be. They are representing it better than anyone else out there right now, really standing out from the crowd while also re-evoking the roots of the metal attitude, even with so many other bands taking this or that to astronomical levels. Jinjer has something, as a band, that few bands in metal have right now. It's that whole package deal. But with that said, I think they have a lot more potential still. And I look forward to seeing what they do with these sounds and their license to be something as "Jinjer." If there's a metal band to look to right now, it's them. They still hold onto a lot of modesty, which is understandable when you see what it has taken for them to get to where they are. They are a band with a lot on the table and things to lose. Right now, they are still fighting just to operate as a band.
The editing in this was 10/10. Also I love how you follow the lyrics in these songs. Im on a binge watching your videos and its just super nice to watch. Keep being the person that you are, you are amazing :)
I feel you on the way a song from Jinjer ends, it's way to short. Definitely give none, one, all idc a look at- Perennial (live at Wacken 2019), Vortex (super groovy and just a sexy song all around), Homeback (very fitting for the times), and Over and out ( twelve foot ninja featuring Tatiana). I don't know, anything from Jinjer is A-1. Great reaction man, enjoy the rabbit hole.
I think we all have the issue where there songs end. It's always sad. Can't wait to see your continue. You ought to check out "Perennial live at Wacken", "Who Is Gonna Be The One live Napalm Records", "Retrospection", "I Speak Astronomy" and "Cloud Factory official live video Napalm Records"
I am so glad I found your video reacting to Pisces yesterday. I really enjoyed seeing your reaction because it reminded me of the first time I heard it. I listen to all types of music and Tati from Jinjer is hands down one of the most talented musicians/vocalists in existence (anyone who thinks otherwise can fight me lol). Another one you've gotta check out is Courtney LaPlante from Spiritbox, my favorite band (Rule of Nines is my favorite song by them if you want to check it out). Spiritbox just has this ethereal sound and her vocals will blow your mind.
The song is about the people that are trying to give you an angle in your life with tons of advises, but they can never follow their own advises or step in your shoes, its for the fake friends and mentors that always know so much...Metal music is something great, boy keep listening and read the lyrics, most of the song of most of the bands are very, VERY deep, Tatiana writes very clever for JINJER. And the ENERGY, i was on one of those gigs in the video from Sofia, BG, and it was like train run over you. IN METAL music many songs will end and you will be like - I want that song to be 20 min and i will have no problem with it, you will be like this with many bands.
The song is about social media and how people behave online towards others The teacher in the song is the type of person who spouts rubbish as been the truth so you shouldn’t always believe what is online
Saw them live n they are f'n amazing. All of their songs habe incredible meaning. Check out I speak astronomy. One of the greatest riffs I've ever heard
Brutal bro... Brutal... lol but still damn good 👍 😂 🤣 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤟🤟🤘🤘🥳another great video as always TooBlunt... and yes I'm still looking forward to your reaction video to Godsmack awake... see.younl in the next one...
Maaaan I love your reactions ... a - because digging into all those fine deep metal things, and b - because I love how you dig the lyrics and really get them so quickly! Wow I'm impressed for your attentiveness! Really looking forward to see more from you :D I already learned you won't put up "Home Back" and it's a good thought why you decided to do so. Loads of greetings from Germany :)
To help answer your question a little better. You didn't like how the song ended, and you wanted more. I absolutely enjoy metal, I mean it hits my soul. It speaks to me, honestly helps me relax. I try to pass it on to other's, so my answer for you is. I'm not sure what music you listened too, before you discovered Jinjer. From my perspective, think of it. Like cleaning out a garage, except what's being cleaned out. Is being replaced by something new, something that grabs ahold of you. Something that, elevates you to a different level. My father has had 4 different types of cancer. All taken care of, and I'm truly blessed. To have him around me, the day before his surgery. I put on Angel Vivaldi, his music hit me in my heart. It brought me a state of calmness, to know my father would be alright. Check out Chon, Animals as leaders (Tosin Abasi) is incredible. You picked a genre, that will never let you down. Will surprise you, enjoy and welcome to the wonderful world of METALLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!! Check out Vortex, On The Top, Judgment (& Punishment). Great video, I mean amazing. Check it out, you'll know why
Everyone's talking about Tatiana (and with good reason, she's fantastic!!) - but can we also give some kudos to Roman, Eugene and Vlad? These gentlemen are great too - especially Eugene, his bass playing is second to none!! Other songs you could react to (still metal, but in other subgenre): - Yours Is An Empty Hope, by Nightwish - Down from the Sky, by Trivium - Amen & Attack, by Powerwolf - Aaj, by Bloodywood
Your analysis of this song is perfect. I subscribed to ur channel cuz you make sense..common sense. Keep it up..keep diving down this jinjer rabbit hole
You can do that. Windmill or just up and down - it doesn't matter. Scott Ian from the classic thrash metal band Anthrax has no hair and still headbangs because the power of the riff compels him. Benji from Dub War did it 30 years ago - dreads flying like a string on a weedeater. You should go for it. Let the stress out!
So glad you've discovered some great music in the metal and rock genres. If you haven't heard Iron Maiden, then I suggest you give them a listen. Their live music is some of the best around. Keep up the good reactions!
Brodie is digging deeper into my girl Tati!!! I was supposed to see them this month in Tulsa Oklahoma but they’re unfortunately stuck in Kyiv because of the invasion!
A tour I could follow from day one is Rage Against the Machine + System of a Down + Jinjer. I have a feeling the only disappointment I would get from that tour is its end when everyone goes home.
LIked and Subed. Welcome to Jinjer. Exelient reaction. Tatiana is a Poet with some of the deepest lyrics out there. What is amazing is English is not her first language. The Band is Ukrainian from the Donbas region. Her home was invaded by Russia back in 2014. And if you want to know her opinion, listen to HOME BACK.
Nice reaction, another vote here for judgement and punishment (vocal one take) next, then "Perennial" Live at Wacken. Then in these disturbing times, try "Home Back".
MrMercury, I got in the Argument with "teacher" when I said there are good germs and bad germs. She said NO there are only bad germs!!! (it was not a religious school so I was safe) Teacher was very wrong. However Pisces is unbeatable poetry about that astrological sign, and there is no "deeper than", just different. This song has a social message.
Another early influence on her vocals and half rapped parts is the German vocalist Sandra Nasic from the band Guano Apes, they're nowhere near as heavy but same as with Gwen Stefani you can't unhear (in a good way) bits of her style creeping into Tatiana's approach.
Thanks for turning me on to Jinjer, they rock. I would recommend "karate" by BabyMetal. Also, "Creep" & "Dream On" by Post Modern Jukebox. And anything by Chris Stapleton or Angelina Jordan.
Yup I think I'm becoming a metal head. Tatiana stole my heart lol.
She has that effect.
I think they are in the US right now, they have a tour here with Slipknot and In This Moment.
@@bafumat their in ukraine, at least i know 3 of them are they even posted about it and they are safe
@@bafumat Nope. They're in the Ukraine. They canceled the tour to focus on what's going on in their homeland. Their bassist posted a video on their RUclips page.
@@bafumat Unfortunately only Tati in the US currently because she was spending her vacation with her husband. Rest of them are still in Kiev.
As a teacher, I'm always proud when one of my students knows something that I don't know. I think that if you are not capable of this feeling, you souldn't be a teacher. A good teacher is first and foremost a good student.
You just gained a level ;)
Very well said, I love teachers, you literally teach the future.
being from the Caribbean like you've stated earlier, you might really enjoy Judgement/Punishment by Jinjer. Reggae music is Tatiana's favorite genre (outside of metal) and it shows in that track. There's a music video and a live one take Vocal of Tatiana in the booth. Either one is amazing.
"Perennial" (Live at Wacken) is one of their best performances that I suggest to react to.
This One 🤘
This one :)
All of Tati's lyrics are deep...their official videos are cinematic masterpieces, and they are phenomenal live
Perrenial (live at Waken)...
Who is Gonna Be the One (live)..
Judgement and Punishment (Tati's one take)...
Sit, Stay, Roll Over is brutal...
Just a few to get you into the groove 🔥
Would just like to add that Perennial also have a really good music video.
Great reaction! Jinjer, making metalheads out of non-metal listeners everywhere. You need to hear them live, either "Perennial" (live at Wacken) or "Perrenial (live at Waken) or "Who is Gonna Be the One" (live). Also praying the guys are staying safe.
You aren’t thinking too deep. Tatiana has said it is about anyone trying to put themselves above others and impose their values. Good call. :)
One of their deepest songs is Home Back about their hometown getting caught in the 2014 war in eastern Ukraine, which is even more heartbreaking today. The video is quite well done by video producers in Kyiv. Eugene their bassist and manager, Roman the guitarist, and Vlad the drummer are all in Kyiv last we've heard. Tatiana is in the US with husband Alex Lopez of Suicide Silence. Eugene also posted a video address on the Jinjer Metal Band channel.
This^^^
I wish Eugene would keep us up to date on what's going on and that they're safe. It's been a week since his post and I'm sure we're all worried 😟😔
Heavy stuff to think about...so so sad. Home Back is a master piece, that has become even more relevant for Ukraine...didn't think that was possible
My favourite Jinjer performance is "Who is Gonna be the One" (Live, Napalm records) but "Home Back" (OMV) unfortunately seems more appropriate today. Good reaction. (subbed)
Yes this!☝️. Let this one cut the line, because, current events.
It's nice to see a reactor who's able to think and put a train of thought into a coherent speech, instead of just mumble and say "like" or "know what I'm saying" every two words, as if we're supposed to know what they're saying when they're not saying anything. People who follow reaction channels know who I'm talking about.
Anyway, you interpreted the lyrics correctly. 🙂
Those are pretty much just cultural speaking habits tho
@@leviathan3630 - Yeah but they shouldn't be used to replace normal communication, even if minimal. It's funny, to say the least, that people who are used to listen to someone "spitting" 10 words per second can't themselves put together three or four and make a coherent sentence.
@@leviathan3630 the Prophet Muhammad had a saying: speak only if your words are better than the silence.
"Perennial" live at Wacken.... next step to know Jinjer... 🤘
"Just another LIVE" .... you'll complete fall in love with her ❤️❤️❤️❤️✨🙏
You nailed the meaning and I haven't seen many reactors think about authority when checking out the lyrics. Thank you! More Jinjer haha
Well, this Ukrainian 4 piece unit is something else. They've got a huge catalogue. Is it progressive, fusion or just freaky metal? I think all three. At this moment the guys of the band are stuck in Kiev surrounded by the Russian army. It's gonna get dangerously rough for them the coming weeks.

Check out either Judgement/Punishment one take vocal performance or Perineal Live next.
This is my fave song by Jinjer at moment but still think you'll love Judgement (& Punishment)
Dude! Love your reactions! Welcome to the epic journey that is jinjer! Last time I saw them live I head banged so hard my eyelashes came off! Please go see them if you're able
The fact that you enjoy the music, genre, and lyrics is very enjoyable to see.

Love your reactions. Love this band. Love this song. Saw them in concert once... I must go again. Soon...
I love tatiana!!!! So much talent . I hope she's OK with what's going on.
At least a couple of days ago they were all good.
I love when ppl who listen to rap or hip hop listen to Jinjer because you always look at the lyrics and figure out the intent the band has for the song.

The live video of Perennial is awesome too...shows her range & amazing stamina cuz its their last song of the set.
...damn cuz...love the reactions to my favorite band of all time...at 63 that's saying something...maybe check out a true live performance...the best imo is "whos gonna be the one" live...oh btw im from key west(conchy joe lol)...grandparents from rock sound eleuthera...peace brother...thanks....
I think you will vibe to tatiana's one take session on judgement and punishement
Jinjer- perennial (live at wacken 2019)
You won't regret reacting to this video
Agree.
Jinjer is one of a kind. The original members no longer play in the band. That being said Tatiana is a beast when it comes to her growl and then clean singing. Love this song as it shows you some of both.
Check out Judgement (and Punishment)
Perennial (live)
Vortex
Home back.
You won't go wrong going down this rabbit hole. Great reaction
Just keep following the journey. Jinjer is a great experience. Words of wisdom great one also
Jinjer - On the top live is a must 👌
JINJER has been my new thing for about a year. Tatiana gets my heart for best female singers.
If you dig that little “rap” deal. You should check out the band Despised Icons song MVP. It’s an interesting piece.
You have to be my favorite. I swear I have watched 100’s of reactions to this. Well what ever is out there ha ha. I love your mind man. Love it. You can do this. Love your method. Well done.
Stay safe Jinjer
Thats what you get when you find something that really speaks to you. If you listen to Home Free you'll think, "these dang songs are too short" as well.
Welcome to the Jinjer rabbit hole! You next need to react to “JINJER - Perennial (Live at Wacken Open Air 2019)”
Dire straits... Brothers in arms... the song will move you...
Jinjer scissors one of my absolute favorite songs.
Cloud factory from jinjer is one of my favorite songs.
This is how you do it.
🤘🤘🤘
Hella good reaction! I'm so glad you're enjoying their content. One of my favorites is I Speak Astronomy. Hopefully you'll get to that one soon. The official video if you would. It's amazing! 😉

Anything by Spiritbox! Just go on Apple Music and pick something. No bad choices.
This took my song of the year for 2019. That chilled section, when Tatiana comes back in with one of her most tender vocals, is still one of my favourite things from them. :)
p.s. it's vocal *cords* - the "h" only appears when talking about musical terms regarding multiple notes at once.... & just to keep you on your toes, that "h" is silent, so it's still pronounced "kords"! ;)
This is the best reaction to this song; IMO.
In relevance of current situation, check out Home Back, next.
Love your reactions. Subscribed. Regarding this video and your comment “people with authority over us”…the only authority they have is what we GIVE THEM. And they’re scared to death of us finally realizing that.

Like you .. I was a regular house wife and she stole my heart too 🤣❤️
I feel you on the way a song from Jinjer ends, it's way to short.

I don't know, anything from Jinjer is A-1. Great reaction man, enjoy the rabbit hole.
Your only complaint about Jinjer is legit. Their songs could be 6 minute epics and I would love every single second.
Wallflower is about being a introvert. She struggles with it like a lot of us do. It’s great song
Ok so there's some other Jinjer songs you should listen to :
I speak astronomy
Words of wisdom
Retrospection
Home back
I think we all have the issue where there songs end. It's always sad. Can't wait to see your continue. You ought to check out "Perennial live at Wacken", "Who Is Gonna Be The One live Napalm Records", "Retrospection", "I Speak Astronomy" and "Cloud Factory official live video Napalm Records"
check out Spiritbox - Rule of Nines, similar to Jinjer in a way but still very unique

OOO or Circle With Me (her one take performance sends me into a tizzy every damn time lol)
Given the current situation jinjers "home back" would be a good one to react to.
The song is about the people that are trying to give you an angle in your life with tons of advises, but they can never follow their own advises or step in your shoes, its for the fake friends and mentors that always know so much...Metal music is something great, boy keep listening and read the lyrics, most of the song of most of the bands are very, VERY deep, Tatiana writes very clever for JINJER. And the ENERGY, i was on one of those gigs in the video from Sofia, BG, and it was like train run over you. IN METAL music many songs will end and you will be like - I want that song to be 20 min and i will have no problem with it, you will be like this with many bands.
The song is about social media and how people behave online towards others
The teacher in the song is the type of person who spouts rubbish as been the truth so you shouldn’t always believe what is online
Saw them live n they are f'n amazing. All of their songs habe incredible meaning. Check out I speak astronomy. One of the greatest riffs I've ever heard
Wow! You got grip of the lyrics like straight away.
Brutal bro... Brutal... lol but still damn good 👍 😂 🤣 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤟🤟🤘🤘🥳another great video as always TooBlunt... and yes I'm still looking forward to your reaction video to Godsmack awake... see.younl in the next one...
Really like Jinjer and was able to see them finally this year. Excellent show! And, TooBlunt, you are a dope dude! Subscribed!
I really appreciate that you are actually thoughtful in your commentary and will be subscribing just because of that.
Maaaan I love your reactions ... a - because digging into all those fine deep metal things, and b - because I love how you dig the lyrics and really get them so quickly! Wow I'm impressed for your attentiveness! Really looking forward to see more from you :D
I already learned you won't put up "Home Back" and it's a good thought why you decided to do so.
Loads of greetings from Germany :)
Vortex is a must
To help answer your question a little better. You didn't like how the song ended, and you wanted more. I absolutely enjoy metal, I mean it hits my soul. It speaks to me, honestly helps me relax. I try to pass it on to other's, so my answer for you is. I'm not sure what music you listened too, before you discovered Jinjer. From my perspective, think of it. Like cleaning out a garage, except what's being cleaned out. Is being replaced by something new, something that grabs ahold of you. Something that, elevates you to a different level. My father has had 4 different types of cancer. All taken care of, and I'm truly blessed. To have him around me, the day before his surgery. I put on Angel Vivaldi, his music hit me in my heart. It brought me a state of calmness, to know my father would be alright. Check out Chon, Animals as leaders (Tosin Abasi) is incredible. You picked a genre, that will never let you down. Will surprise you, enjoy and welcome to the wonderful world of METALLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!! Check out Vortex, On The Top, Judgment (& Punishment). Great video, I mean amazing. Check it out, you'll know why
One more great reaction. Dude, you are in a good may, a lot more reflected than many of your peers 🤘Metal rocks
One of the coolest channels I've come across. Such a fresh unique perspective on music I've been listening to for years🙌
Thanks for the comment :) happy you enjoyed
bro, I love your lyrics analysis and overthinking
Well you just need to listen to more JINJER 🔥💯🤘🏼😈
The mind is a powerful thing :)
The end of the song is whats called being tight.
Everyone's talking about Tatiana (and with good reason, she's fantastic!!) - but can we also give some kudos to Roman, Eugene and Vlad? These gentlemen are great too - especially Eugene, his bass playing is second to none!!
Other songs you could react to (still metal, but in other subgenre):
- Yours Is An Empty Hope, by Nightwish
- Down from the Sky, by Trivium
- Amen & Attack, by Powerwolf
- Aaj, by Bloodywood
Your analysis of this song is perfect. I subscribed to ur channel cuz you make sense..common sense. Keep it up..keep diving down this jinjer rabbit hole
Thanks for subscribing :) happy to have you here
You can do that. Windmill or just up and down - it doesn't matter. Scott Ian from the classic thrash metal band Anthrax has no hair and still headbangs because the power of the riff compels him.
Benji from Dub War did it 30 years ago - dreads flying like a string on a weedeater. You should go for it. Let the stress out!
The “bye have a great time” killed me 🤣🤣🤣
So glad you've discovered some great music in the metal and rock genres. If you haven't heard Iron Maiden, then I suggest you give them a listen. Their live music is some of the best around. Keep up the good reactions!
Best reaction... You actually jumped into lyrics, not like others... 👍
You have great insight. Love your reactions
Oh I had that argument with my English teacher once, and that was in England!
😂 #JinjerArmy #CreekSquad #HOG #HomeFries #PentaHolics
Man, you’re going down all my familial rabbit holes.
Brodie is digging deeper into my girl Tati!!! I was supposed to see them this month in Tulsa Oklahoma but they’re unfortunately stuck in Kyiv because of the invasion!
A tour I could follow from day one is Rage Against the Machine + System of a Down + Jinjer. I have a feeling the only disappointment I would get from that tour is its end when everyone goes home.
I like how the song makes you think out loud so much that a certain point you realize that you're talking a lot. 😆
We knew you would be back! LOL's! 🤘😆👈
I dont know if you've done it already, but you should do "signal fire" by killswitch engage. If you're loving metal, they're the band for you my man
My favorite performance is Pit of Consciousness live in Kyiv
LIked and Subed. Welcome to Jinjer. Exelient reaction. Tatiana is a Poet with some of the deepest lyrics out there. What is amazing is English is not her first language. The Band is Ukrainian from the Donbas region. Her home was invaded by Russia back in 2014. And if you want to know her opinion, listen to HOME BACK.
Rad reaction! Most their songs are super deep!
LOS ANGELES
Lions At The Gate - "Find My Way" featuring Tatiana Shmayluk of Jinjer (Official Music Video 4K)
Nice reaction, another vote here for judgement and punishment (vocal one take) next, then "Perennial" Live at Wacken. Then in these disturbing times, try "Home Back".
MrMercury, I got in the Argument with "teacher" when I said there are good germs and bad germs. She said NO there are only bad germs!!! (it was not a religious school so I was safe) Teacher was very wrong. However Pisces is unbeatable poetry about that astrological sign, and there is no "deeper than", just different. This song has a social message.
I came here to watch a new Jinjer fan being born. Happy birthday.
Lol and one was definitely born !
Another early influence on her vocals and half rapped parts is the German vocalist Sandra Nasic from the band Guano Apes, they're nowhere near as heavy but same as with Gwen Stefani you can't unhear (in a good way) bits of her style creeping into Tatiana's approach.
She is featured on the new 12 foot ninja record. Check it out. The video is a trip. It's called Over and out.
✌
Thanks for turning me on to Jinjer, they rock. I would recommend "karate" by BabyMetal. Also, "Creep" & "Dream On" by Post Modern Jukebox. And anything by Chris Stapleton or Angelina Jordan.
Woot woot happy you liked them :) and I’ll check those out
