[@Wonmanbanned]

I’ve been a Jinjer fan for a long time. I met them at a Meet and Greet and they were very nice - signed a guitar for me and took an interest in my disability and had a nice chat. It’s worth noting that all of them are super nice people. Tati is TINY I’m 5’7 and she disappeared when I got a hug. The boys are mega, very chatty and friendly. So a few christmases ago I was struggling with my disability (spine issues) and put on the fan page that I was looking to sell the guitar. This got picked up in by the admin and the band found out too. They set up a fund raiser for me so I didn’t have to sell the guitar!! Absolutely unbelievably generous and kind fan base! Great band and amazing fans 10/10

The vocal switchups between clean and harsh are very difficult to do. Contrary to popular belief though, they require the ability to keep the vocal tract properly relaxed. If you introduce tension to the wrong muscles while pushing with that much power, you could easily hurt yourself. Tatiana is a masterclass in what some modern metal vocalists strive to be. She can do cleans, screams, growls, and belt at a very high level, which not many people can do. Generally one area or another suffers. Which is why the Jinjer army is so in love with her vocals. That being said, nothing could take away from the other 3 members of the band, and their ability to make interesting music that never gets stale because they don’t allow themselves to become formulaic, and are all top-tier with their respective instruments.

Tatiana absolutely did double the final screaming sections to make it sound "bigger." Her primary low growl was the live take (with a little compression) and the higher fry she did afterwards. Really incredible performance overall and she's definitely got some pipes on her even if this take is only about 80% live (not that there's anything wrong with that).

His drumming makes the song sound really different. So we finally had some free time last winter, we went to Istok studio in Kiev, did a live recording and shooting, then added over some extra lines, like a few backing vocals and guitars, then Max from Morton Studio made this new magnificent version of mixing and here we are - Pisces video.

[@-whiskey-4134]

As a metal vocalist, I’m like 90% sure she does false chords like me. It’s actually not hard to transition between clean and distorted vocals. I can seamlessly talk with and without distortion in the same manner at talking volume. It’s hard to get down while learning, but once you know your body and how it works, it’s pretty simple, but sounds cool af. But it doesn’t work if you dont have good technique. And yes, you can to the throat singing too, but again, works best with false chords. Fry works, but it’s nowhere near as powerful or hard hitting is is more scratchy and strained sounding.

[@klimtklavier]

NO, she doesn no do false chords... see vid with about a dozen professional vocal instructors... their reactions vary, and one does say false chords eaarly on... but nope, Tatiana sings from her diaphragm andsomewhere along the line figured out throat singing done by Buddhist monks (she's a Gojita fan, Joe Duplantier taught himslef how to throat sing, see The Flesh Inside Gojita documentary, which was done back when Gojira were a death metal band (a vegan environmentalist Sea Shepherd French oh and they do visual art and have the best drummer in metal too).

[@differentbutsimilar7893]

@@klimtklavier In throat singing, the false cords provide the overtones (or perhaps UNDERtones?) that GIVE it that whole sound. It's a blend of false and true cords, that's fundamental, and the difficulty for most is using both simultaneously in the right way to get the timbre. That's why it's called throat singing. You CAN'T do it without the false cords in your throat (eg, above the larynx!) It's more like, you need more extreme skill with your false cords to execute it in the first place. The true cords produce the actual note with the false ones changing the resonance in a way that makes it sound like multiple voices. You have a note going off at one frequency, while your throat is essentially resonating at a different one through the opening of the false cords, like an overtone or a reverb with its own pitch. Like, Imagine you had a lot of saturation on a guitar, but it specifically only emphasized one or two specific harmonics... or something like what an octave pedal does. The false cords are serving a similar role in throat singing. And of COURSE she uses her false cords, man. WTF are those gutterals and growls if they aren't coming from her false cords? There is no other way to reliably get those sounds at that kind of volume, let alone the fast transitions to clean singing, without using false cord techniques. If you hear cookie monster sounds, it's likely false cords - presumed true until proven otherwise. And if it really isn't false cord technique, come back in two years and see if they still have it, if it still sounds the same. That aside, false cord techniques are the foundation for just about every scream commonly done today. Verrrryy few forms of vocal distortion don't involve false cords. When learning to scream, you start with the standard false cord growl... and then once you have 'access' the the false cords, you experiment to 'find' the other types of distorted vocals you can do with them. The other guy was talking about fry... maybe I've been doing it wrong, but when I do a vocal fry, I still feel the movement in the false cords - it is just less because airflow is less... the difference is in the breath behind it and how much you open your head/nose. It's just a brighter, more strained sounding false cord technique, made that way by putting more of the resonance of the scream up in your head instead of your chest. That's also why it tends to be quieter. Rasp is just a gentler fry emphasizing the natural voice instead, with extra breath. Like a hybrid head/chest singing technique where you just use your head voice for the distortion while still singing with your chest (doing pitch normally.) Chester Bennington anybody? He would freely go between rasp, fry, and even clean mixed voice by just bringing the false cords in and out. Tighter on the false cords... more restriction in your cranium peters it down and keeps the natural voice dominant. Fry = louder false cord falsetto. Rasp = quieter false cord falsetto with natural voice mix (note that some singers have a 'natural rasp' that uses their actual vocal folds, but it IS potentially damaging for the same reason screaming is.) The reason a fry has clear pitch and a guttural doesn't is because it's head voice, which grants you another way to control pitch in addition to the singing happening underneath, just like it would with clean falsetto singing. People extend their clean pitch range the same as their dirty pitch range. Compression. A fry is a double-compressed growl. I mean... think about it. Ever hear a vocalist slide from a deep gutteral to a really high fry in one continuous scream? How do ya'll think that happens with zero interruptions across the whole transition? False cords are going the whole time, while the vocalist gradually adjusts where the air gets pushed, changing the resonance and thus the overall character of the distortion from low and deep to thin and high. All of these techniques are interrelated. IME, and many others, if you can do a plain cookie-monster growl, you can pretty easily begin to take up all of the techniques I described up there by accident, just playing with what can be done while the false cords are being utilized. It's kinda how most people tend to learn them. It starts with controlling your false cords. They're the distortion pedal of the human voice. Obviously, there is clean chest and head voice in there, too. When she sings clean, it can only be true cords. It's clean singing. When she screams... it is almost certainly false cord. There seems to be some confusion with the names of these techniques. There is specifically a 'false cord scream' which is just that cookie monster gutteral. But 'false cord' originally refers to an anatomical feature that gets utilized in basically every other scream just as much as the ones we CALL 'false cord.' The gutterals are just the first people learn false cord techniques with, the archetypal false cord vocal, among many other related false cord vocals.

You display your lack of understanding of what false cords even are when you say "no she sings from her diaphram" If you aren't incredibly controlled and well supported, that is singing from your diaphragm, you will fuck up and hurt yourself singing false cord screams and growls.

Holy shit my man wrote a book!

[@JD1886]

@@klimtklavier no... it is false vocal chords. She is nothing like Joe - completely different technique. One look at the distance of their mouth from the microphone will tell you this. Joe is almost 6-12 inches away while Tati screams directly into it.

[@warthogA10]

You found Jinjer... I came across them some years ago, and was hooked instantly

[@felixalanis9661]

She is the best singer I’ve seen in this genre, very cool to watch your reaction, which was excellent as always!

[@badm0t0rf1nger]

Yes, Justin.... I *do* get your Soundgarden riff reference!! I'd love to see what you make of Jinjer's more recent single "Vortex" sometime. It's a glorious thru-composed heavyAF #Gem of a thing! :)

[@NikkLiberos]

The headbanging on 8:18 is ON POINT. Sublime. And props to you for commenting on Vlad's drumming. He sure deserves a shout-out for his dynamic control.

[@magregory1985]

A friend from work showed me this video and I was blown away with what that woman can do, but also have a voice of an angel

[@sah-win]

Musicianship is incredible. 2 of the 3 vocal styles are fantastic. I wish I could get into the grumbling stuff.

[@jckl44]

Jinjer and Opeth with their stunning transitions betweens highs and lows is my favourite music.

[@jordanjoestar8839]

I recommend Gorija for sure. An easy one to get into the group would be Silvera, or Born for One Thing. They replicate all songs perfectly live. One band that will never be replaced nor replicated.

[@klimtklavier]

GOJIRA. Any live version of Stranded on the Summer 2016 festivals, Bloodstock being the best. Joe Duplantier is a very interesting vocalist, and a very interesting guitarist, getting a deal with EVH (Fender) when Eddie Van Halen took an interest in his playing... Gojira on BBC for that year is good too... sadly mother Duplantier died that year and they had just begun recording the Magma album... which turned into a cathartic and very beautiful album for those of us who go through the Kubler Ross Stages of Grief thing with ANGER. The Stranded video was created by Gabrielle Duplantier, Joe and Mario's sister. Also Justin you could contrast and compare your brother-in-a-band thing... they aren't the Kinks Davies brothers, or Duane and Greg Allman...and they sure aren't the Osmonds. Also they've had the same four guy lineup since the band formed (drummer Mario was 15... he is the best metal drummer on Earth currently).

[@deeanddude]

I had to go and watch this on the toilet because otherwise I would’ve pissed myself!!! 😂🤣😂🤣 Just the perfect reaction to the initial change up into the chorus!👍👍🤟🤟 And the fantastically detailed sarcastic comments. And you are the first one to comment so much on the intricacies of the drumline 🤟🤟 This is definitely a reaction to be saved.

[@easter_sunday]

This sounds more like an exercise in schizophrenia as opposed to songcraft.

[@deViIle]

Good description. It kind of makes me uncomfortable, which is interesting. I think it’s how clean and slow it is.

[@dh8496]

LOL! That first bit of death metal growl literally made me spit out my freshly made tea with laughter.

[@GaryHolloway-810]

It's Jinjer one of the most innovative bands of modern times. That's who it is.😁

[@GS-vb3zn]

Ha ha ha… good one.

[@KalosPVP]

Meh. If it were a dude singer the band would be completely unknown.

[@atreides6]

So innovative no one has heard of them.

[@ThatBlindGuy247]

Wouldn't say innovative but they have become a pretty big part of the scene since 2019

[@Davey-Boyd]

We know another great innovative band don't we Gary Po!

[@TheDonSapius]

Surprised it's taken you this long for this to show up on your radar but super happy you enjoyed it. Jinjer brings me joy. Lol.

[@SparkimusPrime]

Jinjer is absolutely INCREDIBLE. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@sunshineroth9605]

Been waiting for this!

[@Sleep_Diety]

Finally you looked these guys up.Thanks Justin

[@willnoctem]

Jinjer are amazing life and must be protected at all costs

[@donnakurtz9293]

Yoo crack me up. I have just recetnly run across your channel and I believe it had to do with Ren. Not sure if it is surprising that somehow in America I have made it this far (past my middle age I am afraid) without having discovered you before. I enjoy your commentary so much. Your sense of humor takes me off guard and I have to compose myself before I can go on. Actual Laugh out Loud which is much needed these dark days. Glad to meet you. This note is composed reight after your pondered the idea of "Udder World" ... amusement part where dodge cows under carriage. (underworld) thanks :)
