Thanks for watching!

[@robertfitterman3777]

I like that you are focused on the entire band, not just Tatiana. That is very refreshing, as the Jinjer Army appreciates all four members of this band!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Robert! They are all amazing and it takes more than one person to create Ana amazing group like this.

[@johnerickson5118]

Love this point I was on my way to say this also

[@viveladecadence]

As someone who has watched hundreds of reactions videos regarding Jinjer over the last couple of years, this is refreshing for me as well, because somehow I got so "used" to the (still brilliant!) performance of this song at Wacken 2019 that in a way I almost forgot they have performed this song many times live since then. So thank you for your insight and thanks for showing a different live version of this beautiful song and the brilliance that is Jinjer as a band live.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it!

[@Robertsmith-dy3sh]

Awesome reaction, so glad to see the whole band get the props they deserve! Every Jinjer song is different so please continue this journey!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Robert! I thought they were all pretty awesome! It takes more than one to make an amazing group like this.

[@BigLebowski248]

I just saw them at the Wiltern a few days ago and they rocked. I knew they would be amazing live but somehow they were even better than I thought.

[@kevinwagner542]

I'm really enjoying your Jinjer reactions. They are so good live. I was lucky enough to see them this past Saturday in Atlanta. The band put on a blazing performance and Tati rattled the walls with her vocals. I agree with some others below, "Teacher, Teacher" would be a great next reaction.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Kevin! Seems like I’ll be going for that one since I am a teacher.

[@biglock]

I was there too! I love that they opened with their older song Sit, stay rollover. One of my favorite songs.

[@alanzimmerman1674]

"These people in this band...they're frickin' wicked!" That may be the best description of Jinjer's talent yet uttered! Great reaction again, sir! Merry Christmas, and may the New Year be filled with more awesome music!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Alan and Merry Christmas to you too!

[@adamheller6783]

Love your reactions to Jinjer! Can't wait for more Jinjer!!! :)

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Adam! More coming soon.

[@TheKotofoto]

Yeah, it's time to react to "Teacher, Teacher" ))) Wonderful reaction!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks TheKotofoto. I will do that one since the name intrigues me being a teacher.

[@danfarrik]

I agree that “Teacher Teacher” should come next. Very diverse and interesting song.

[@zfgdun]

Not only are they amazing musicians, they are awesome people as well. Welcome to the rabbit hole and most definitely welcome to the Jinjer Army.

[@chriso6719]

Roman on guitar, Eugene on bass, and Vlad behind the kit. Vlad doesn't miss a beat, not even when Tati walks up to the drum riser and flashes him. More Jinjer to try: Teacher Teacher, Judgement (and Punishment) vocal one take, or Vortex.

[@bobcieslinski]

Lol wow.

[@smokin2again]

You’re stretching it a bit considering she flashed her bra lol

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

That's because they are all listening to a click track.

[@belakiss8861]

Jinjer is a tight and very talented band...Tatiana is incredible on vocals....

[@Dutchbelg3]

Your perspective on Jinjer is solid and knowledgable! We all enjoy their artistry and musicality! Tatiana is a pro-growler who does not JUST scream but seamlessly joins clear sounds with her heart wrenching but accurate growl.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Hans! They are all pretty amazing musicians.

[@poldiderbus3330]

No matter how often I listen to Perennial, I get goosebumps every time!

[@bobcieslinski]

They are so good.

[@stevecranmer2845]

This was a great reaction of my favorite band, subbed for some more.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Steve!

[@nikkiwilliams8508]

This was my first reaction video of yours and I love it! Most people don’t catch all of the precision and little hidden parts of metal, so it’s pretty refreshing to have you do that! I have been to more than 150 performances and metal is usually the better shows lol.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Nikki! I really enjoyed this one. They are fantastic.

[@BER78TRUTH]

Bob, thanks for your reaction and appreciation for this music. Great talking points you bring to our attention. Excellent work.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks so much I appreciate it! Merry Christmas!

[@DarrellW_UK]

0:04 Great to see your acknowledgment on the whole band Bob, they are truly amazing! Here’s me a 70+ year old rock/metal head (in the past) getting into this sort of stuff and many other genres that I was never interested in! I agree with others who have said Teacher teacher and Vortex both tracks are amazing but so are some of their earlier stuff, well worth a bit of research!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks what a great band. Pretty cool that you are into them. Age doesn’t matter it’s all in the mind. I started mountain biking when I was 50 and just started riding a motorcycle at 55.

[@rick5908]

You talk about the fill and timing but note vlad and Eugene are connected at the brain stem. They always hit exactly together

[@bobcieslinski]

They do make those hits pop together. They are all so good. Fantastic musicians.

[@nicholasxridiculous]

The drumming on the song Mediator is truly a masterpiece.

[@jeffreyhanc1711]

You really have sharp musical ears! Nice reaction from fellow musician on an epic band.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Jeffrey! Nice to meet another musician.

[@petahpunk]

They are absolutely amazing live, I've seen them twice. And they WORK! It seems like they are always on tour.

[@bobcieslinski]

Wow I’d be really interested in seeing them live. I’ll have to check out the tour to see if it comes to Pittsburgh.

[@Golf77768]

Thank you bro, your reaction is awesome!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks for watching!

[@Rodzilla5332]

You MUST MUST MUST review TEACHER TEACHER to hear the musicianship of this band. It's completely insane. I recommend the official video for sound quality. The lives are spot on but the studio recording let's you hear everything. Plus it's a compilation of "live" performances.

[@jonathantaylor3074]

Glad you finally posted this reaction, even though its not live a Wacken. Was not expecting you to pick up more on the band in comparison to just Tati. There is quite a bit in "Pieces" which showcase their skills. Odd time signatures and what I would consider jazz influence sections. Good stuff. Im sure you have gotten more song suggestions, but here is mine. 1. Judgement & Punishment- if you want to hear these guys do some "reggae" 2. Home Back- if you want to delve into the Russia/Ukraine war(nothing new to the band). probably written between 2018 & 2019

[@bobcieslinski]

Sounds good Jonathan! Thanks!

[@TessT101]

Will be seeing them for the first time on Friday. I can not wait! This band shreds 🤘

[@bobcieslinski]

Wow enjoy Teri!

[@jameswarner5809]

I would recommend I Speak Astronomy as it is the most overtly progressive of their tracks with a barnstorming riff in the first two verses that will bend your mind and Tati doing a top of her range belt near the end.

[@ponuryzniwiarz]

great band

[@Friskee62]

This band is at the TOP of what they do...JINJER has no equal.

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

Except Fleshgod apocalypse, Septicflesh and Nile. All far more complex and faster than Jinjer

[@Friskee62]

@@dcmastermindfirst9418...Doesn't make them better.

[@SteveSmith-os5bs]

I compared this performance to her 2019 performance at Wacken. I love both of these can't decide which is my favorite.

[@tbarber863]

Amazing is the only word for this band.

[@j.f.fisher5318]

As others have said, the focus on the whole band is appreciated. Their early songs had a rhythm guitarist but he got a chance to act in ca late 2014 and took it. They couldn't find a replacement that fit the chemistry of the band so since then, the other 3 have basically split his contribution to the music between them. It creates a unique sound and gives each of them more opportunity to shine creatively. The switching between cleans and growls is impressive, it's a matter of coordination between the vocal cords and vestibular folds. Despite Tatiana saying she doesn't really practice, I call b.s. on that - especially how much her voice grew during lockdown. I think she doesn't practice but is just always singing so yeah. Teacher Teacher is awesome. The live in Melbourne shows Tati rapidly switching back and forth live whoch is awesome, but Eugene's bass is really low in the mix which hamstrings their sound on all the Melbourne versions. Vortex at Hellfest is great even if it wasn't in front of a crowd (virtual festival during lockdown). Who Is Gonna Be The One has really impressive musical composition while focusing mainly on Tati's growls - I especially love the dueling guitar and bass. WIGBTO was originally released in 2014 with the rhythm guitarist in the mix, but the re-composed it to work with just the 3 of them and its the only song from the Cloud Factory era that they still play in concerts, especially in the US where the protest theme is popular with US fans.

The Trifecta of Metal, Hard Rock and Rock, Bob: Jinjer, Band-Maid, and The Warning -- all pushing their core genres into the next realm! 🤘 🤘 🤘

[@bobcieslinski]

I’ll be doing the warning soon. It was suggested.

[@deadsightsx]

I love this lineup of the band, but I do miss when they had 2 guitars. Check out the music video for Cloud Factory, recorded when they had 2 and a different drummer or there is a live video of the current lineup as well

[@aditsu]

Check out their songs "Vortex" , "Home back", "Teacher teacher".. pretty much any of their songs :)

[@koonfoxmusic1472]

perennial has such an epic sound live

[@travis.h.music.111]

You should check out i speak astronomy by jinjer. One of their best pieces of work and one of the best endings to a song i've ever heard before. A must listen for sure.

[@Neal_YouTube]

I mean this in in the best possible way, but I was nervous the entire video expecting you to tell me that you would eat my kidneys 😅

[@bobcieslinski]

Lol

[@edpeevler476]

The band is super technical

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

No they aren't. The bass does most of the work and the drums vills in the rest. The guitar is just fluff.

[@tjhorne82]

Can't wait until you dive into more. "Cloud Factory official live video", "Retrospection live in Melbourne" and "On the Top live in Kiev" are all good ones worth checking out.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Scooby I’ll add those ones to thr list.

[@DrCognac]

Great song with a fantastic band. Love Tatiana, her transitions between low and clear voices is unmatched. A band with similar vocal abilities is the japanese Broken by the Scream, a very progressive band with a female growler even lower than Tatiana.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks!

[@t3chkz0wep0p.2]

If you enjoy great drumming and rhythmic syncopation check out Meshuggah -Bleed the Thomas Haake drum cam version. You can watch him play it. There's also a GREAT Danny Carey drum video for Pneuma by Tool.

[@tomshublinski9054]

You seem to like Vlad's drumming. The drum playthrough of "Mediator" is great.

[@ВиталийФролов-н9б]

Who is goona be the one Who is gonna be the one Who is gonna be te one so good reaction from you, nice) and pls more)

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks!

[@scottmorey6212]

A couple notes on Vlad, seeing as he's caught your eye... When covid hit, the band naturally had a break & Vlad, the newest member of the band & classically trained, effectively wrote the new album (Wallflowers) - all but one track. His musicality is all over it, clearly inspired by classical music & very progressive. I recommend reacting to a track of that album (Vortex, Wallflower, Pearls & Swine, Dead Hands Feel No pain... Any really apart from Colossus, which Eugene wrote). Secondly, more so in earlier tracks, he likes to play holding his sticks by the thin/head end to give the sound a bigger punch. From memory think you can see that in Teacher Teacher. I recommend watching a drum walk through video at somepoint to see him at work!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Scott! I’ll add those ones.

[@scottmorey6212]

@@bobcieslinski Thanks Bob. If yoy choose Vortex (in my opinion their best song) or Wallflower I'd recommend the official video. DHFNP & PS have a drum walk through but no official video as far as I can remember.

[@SRMWorkshop]

I'm not sure but almost sounded like Tati had a cold in this one. Still a killer performance.

[@marciemoss]

I Love that your analysis focuses on the whole band and the overall musicianship. Thank you for a great video. Here's a suggestion you may enjoy as a teacher yourself :D JINJER - Teacher, Teacher! (Live in Melbourne) | Napalm Records kzbin.info/www/bejne/amSrgH-KfLypma8

Also, in terms of overall musicianship, you may find Vortex by Jinjer very interesting and unusual. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5rEgIZ9j7mqqrs

[@Stratos53100]

Enjoy your videos, My Fav version of this one is prob the most requested by others, "Live at Waken Open Air 2019" Napalm Records - which i believe is also the official music video as well, it has much better sound that was captured for it, obviously. have a look at it as well if you have not yet, since doing this concert one. Edit : Although being at any of their concert's would be an epic experience... dont get me wrong.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks for the kind words and suggestion Stratos!

[@Wonderful-cr9lv]

I suggest you try the song "freedom" from band-maid.

[@petervandespanden1965]

What about the piano player huh,if you know jinjer you would know that Vladimir the drummer is actually a classic trained pianoplayer and eugene their bassist self tought by the way refers to vlad as the pianoplayer. There is a clip on u tube of vlad behind the piano playing a classical piece.

[@bobcieslinski]

Someone did tell me that Peter and it blew my mind.

[@RockDocNeal]

I've watched their "live from Wacken 2019" performance of this song several times, but I've never this video. Tatiana, the band and the audio all sound great, but I think I still prefer the Wacken performance. I noticed a couple minor issues with Tati's vocals in this performance versus the 2019 Wacken performance....there were a couple quick instances where her pitch was slightly off, her clean singing sounded slightly more forced/fatigued and she took an extra near the end of the long melodic "aah" phrase during the slow section, all of which were not present on the 2019 performance (which was the last song of their set). Maybe it's just fatigue from the tour or her voice wasn't 100% that day (I've had many of those days!), but my fear is she's developing some minor vocal damage due to her admitted years of smoking and lack of specific care for her voice or preparation prior to singing....maybe I'm just paranoid because I'm a huge fan of Tatiana and the band. I just saw them last month at the House of Blues in Boston and they rocked the place, but I was about 30-40' from the stage and the sound system was so f-ing loud that the music sounded distorted so it was hard to hear any details of the performance (I believe I may have old abused ear drums from decades of playing loud rock music because I eventually moved to the back of the venue and it sounded much clearer).
