Our Rating System:
We are both firm believers that it is unjust to review and rate an album after only hearing it one or two times therefore our method for reviews is much different than everyone else on KZbin.
Our review process starts off with a "listening session" where we hear the entire album from beginning to end, uninterrupted. We then post a video with our initial thoughts and opinions of the album. Over the course of a week we will each listen to the album as many times as we can, analyzing and critiquing it. Then at the end of the week we will post our full and final review of the album which will include our ratings.
Our scoring method is unique to this channel as well. We each rate the album out of 10 but anything 8 and above simply just gets our Toe Tag. In order for an album to make it onto the list above it must receive Two Toe Tags. It if only gets one or none then it does not make our coveted list.
Any album that receives Two Toe Tags is considered a top quality album of elite status and highly recommended by both of us. Be sure to Subscribe and turn on Notifications so you will always be in the loop with all the awesome metal we review!
NOTICE: This is not a news/info channel. We are not a KZbin version of Wikipedia for the bands that we discuss. There will be some videos, especially Reactions, where we get some facts or information wrong. Please understand that our purpose is simply to react to the video and not to spread knowledge about the band. We have not, nor will we ever state incorrect facts. If we are unsure of things we will be clear that we are unsure and by all means, feel free to correct us in the comments below.
Anyone who fails to understand what this channel is about and proceeds to troll our videos with nonsensical remarks will be removed from the channel. This means that any comments you post will be blocked from us and potentially to all other users as well.
We welcome constructive criticism and corrections on facts/information, just please be polite and courteous about it.

We effe'd up the editing on this one lol oops!

[@sand_la]

This one takes a while to digest, gets better with every listen for me

[@davidburns6284]

I love everything this band does. Both of these new tracks are sick as hell. Can't wait until Friday.

[@jeffpattonmagic4914]

I've liked both singles so far but for me This one caught my ear more so than Vortex and has made me really excited for Wallflowers. I also don't think Tatiana get's enough credit as a lyricist. I'm definitely guilty of it. But she has a way of painting metaphors with extremely specific imagery, and I've never heard anything like it. I mean "The best way to make a kettle boil, is to turn your back on this". WHAT!? What a clever way of saying "don't ignore what's happening in the world" and likening it to the adage of a watched pot never boils

[@alohm360]

Jeff Patton Magic I've never heard anything like it too Bro, however I was making a turkish coffee thousands times ... almost half of the attempts were fatal due the fucking coffee runs just fuck at the moment when I lose my attention for 1-2 seconds)))

[@benjaminschulman4033]

Absolutely, the lyrics on this song are fucking poetic and emotional as shit and the way she presents them while singing is masterfully theatrical too.

[@DynamiteProd]

This song kicks some major ass. Best metal song I’ve heard in a bit.

[@slickmechanical]

This new album is gonna be so good. You can tell there's a more classical element to the songwriting on the last two tracks, like the song structure is telling the story. Vortex starts high and descends into sludge while feeling like a swirling death ride and this one starts sad like you said and changes tenor halfway through, it lays the groove for the end and every couple phrases adds to the intensity and ends in a blowoff. There's so much intention and attention to the details about making the music tell as much of a story as the lyrics.

[@mbochum83]

I was thinking the same thing. They're just playing "stuff" and it unmistakably just sounds like Jinjer. Somehow they keep the same signature sound sounding fresh, and keep me wanting more.

[@corneliatomson1506]

This song was a bit hard for me to get into in the first listens,because of so many twists and changes it had. Now it gets better every time I listen to it,I am sure it will grow on you too! Jinjer never disappoints!

[@abentevent]

I remember a few years back before they blew up with pisces, the consensus on review sites on jinjer and "king of everything" is that the music was bland and that Tatyana's clean vocals were too "squeely". I was pretty sure we weren't listening to the same album. This feels like a giant middle finger in the face of anyone who's ever written them off and I love it.

[@mwilliams9568]

Metal seems to be getting better and better in 2021.

[@dpwaslayer1]

her voice is sooo perfect

[@user-gp8ub8jl9c]

Guys tomorrow Cradle of Filth releasing new single from the album!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jamesm5883]

Love the total old school thrash in the end, this song literally melts faces! You guys rock! Keep up the great reactions! 🤘

[@johnfish8208]

As much as I liked Jinjer before they just keep getting better 😁❤👍👍

[@damienpolley2307]

Don't get me wrong every member of this band talent level is through the roof,but these first 2 tracks there's just so many guitar riffs it's insane.i kinda felt like "Macro"the just told the drummer to start jamming and they wrote the guitars and bass around him just laying down some beats.these first 2 singles it kinda feels the same but they just decided to explore every possible chord of each chord of the song along with every type of drum fill you can do for each chord lol.hope it gets more down to earth from here!I think they need another picses or something like it.

[@n1kkmoviezz463]

This will be crazy live

[@oldmanjimh3165]

It shouldn't work but always DOES!!!

[@jeremykershaw]

That drumming is fire!

[@pablozee6359]

Vlad is a monster musician and composer. One of the things that makes Jinjer sound so unique is his ability to make their sound “swing” and breathe, even when playing blast beats or straight ahead thrash. A lot of that is rooted in how often he has that eight or sixteenth note pulse going with his left foot on the hi hat underneath everything else that is happening, especially when there is a polyrhythm or poly meter. There’s a grooviness to their music that just feels different.

[@Croshyn]

I feel like and hope so Jinjer is going to be the second band getting a two two tag with two consecutive albums. They are so uniqe, heavy but melodical, tight but technical as fuck. They always bring something new to the table, always putting different subgenres in one song and somehow it always works. I hope the album will slay.

[@davidburns6284]

They keep getting more progressive and I really dig it.

[@gothicanimegirlsz3443]

i like it another good song

[@dissonantpulse]

This is the last song of the record. I think this song will be better with context of the whole album.

[@corrob]

love both tracks so far, i liked this one first listen, LOVED it 3rd listen, once you know where each transition goes, it really hits harder. cant wait for the album!

[@lukecowley4949]

I like both singles equally, thing is with jinjer I think it's impossible for them to release a bad song 😂😂🤘

[@NR-xd1vw]

I disagree. This sounded exactly the same as the last song. it is just them spinning around in a room with the same funk sound and drum beats and she does some cleans and growls which sound exactly the same. I like the band but they are too overhyped.

[@lukecowley4949]

@@NR-xd1vw you didn't listen at all then, yeah the video shared similarities with the vortex video but the song itself was completely different 😂

[@_Matholomeu]

@@lukecowley4949 what do you mean? They were exactly the same. Didnt you hear the part at the end when she said "swirl"?

[@lukecowley4949]

@@_Matholomeu you clearly have no idea what your talking about. The groove's and riffs were entirely different, the vocal patterns were different. And if the word swirl is your complaint then you must not listen to any songs because loads share words in common 😂

[@_Matholomeu]

@@lukecowley4949 lol it wasn't even in there, I was being facetious. Unfortunately that doesn't come through the internet quite how we'd like. A sarcasm font is clearly in high demand. But it's obvious the tracks are worlds apart. Also on the subject of the lyrics, they are fantastic.

[@kim_2918_]

I completely agree. Still a great song, but Vortex… when that song dropped I probably listened to it at least 25 times that day. I can’t get enough…. I heard in a live stream with the band that Tatianas favorite song from the new album is “wallflower”…so really looking forward to the whole album!

[@tylerschnabel1743]

Y’all should check out the new single from “Rivers Of Nihil,” tiled “Clean.” The song is rad.

[@TwoToeTags]

We did! Should be up tomorrow

[@tylerschnabel1743]

@@TwoToeTags looking forward to it. Y’all are always on point with your reactions.

[@lucasgolden2115]

This one definitely gets better (not that it was a bad first listen at all) after multiple listens. I find that happens with a lot of faster tempo stuff, it’s a lot to digest the first few times around. Pumped for the album!

[@blackdeath6666]

I like Jinjer but nothing beats that metal goddess Angela Gossow🖤🤘

[@TheDjentleman77]

It’s already been said many times over but yeah, the talent this band has! 🔥🤘🏻 Be sure to check out the new Orbit Culture, also amazing!

[@TwoToeTags]

We already did. You should subscribe and turn on notifications so you don't miss our videos! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@fysy9989]

Can you please check out Seven Spires - Gods of Debauchery? THey have a new album coming up in september I think and have released some new singles recently

[@ricktacular6316]

Really like this one but I still prefer Vortex.

[@joafic]

New song from Orbit Culture? Please!! Thanks for the video!!

Hey whats up! Could you Please 🙏🏼 React to a new Female fronted Metal Band called Vexed 🔥, they are awesome! Their vocalist she is beautiful and very talented

[@blackfox1320]

I still have trouble getting into this band, just not for me I guess.

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

Wow, we exist!!

[@ivanvillareal6063]

First

[@sbro5680]

Vortex is better than this song, but this one is still good 👌

[@NR-xd1vw]

Vortex was good. This is mediocre.

[@user-qr6td3ub2q]

I dunno. I don't like it at all. Old Jinjer was awesome and this is just a technical mess.

[@QuestNation3221]

I don’t get the love for this band. I find them boring.

[@jsincreel6085]

Generic just because she can scream doesn't make it good

[@TwoToeTags]

Oh really!

[@kevinmerz2036]

Generic? Please, recommend me bands that sound like em. I'd love to listen to more good stuff.

[@robertevans2450]

Dude yawning in the middle....if you can't get energized by this band, it's all on you. Also, if they are the most reacted band, you would think you could find them on the wall behind you during your reactions...just saying.

[@TwoToeTags]

Jinjer is on the wall.

[@tvfish15]

Wow I guess my words praising the song mean nothing because I yawned one time during the reaction. If you can't pay attention to what we have to say, it's all on you.

[@robertevans2450]

@@TwoToeTags Yes, just behind the yawning dude's head, out of sight a good portion of the time...as my point was, one would think the most reacted to band would be visible the most or at least among the most. It is a digital background, so entirely able to be modified fairly easily. However, if I am wrong and it is an actual soft good, maybe change the camera angle or raise the batten a bit so his yawning head isn't in the shot covering the most reacted to band?

[@robertevans2450]

@@tvfish15 words are cheap...you have editorial powers...either you choose to react when you were low on energy, or you truly didn't get the energy from the song, implying a lack of connection. Either way, it's a sub par performance on your part and the editor's part. You all are putting a produced product out there, not a selfie candid shot. Don't get mad, any more than a band getting mad at you for your reviews, or their fans getting mad because you didn't rave over their idol sufficiently.

[@TwoToeTags]

@@robertevans2450 You're taking the cake here for most ridiculous criticism ever received. We are both Jinjer fans. Their placement on our background doesn't mean anything and it's stupid to imply that it should. Also, people yawn. Get the fuck over it.
