JINJER - Pit Of Consciousness (Guitar Playthrough)

[@neoweiter]

Band made of gods

[@duquestring37]

More playthrough more jinjer

[@SinggihSans]

Yeah mann

[@infernapeDLS]

to be fair, they already have more than the average band. They have alot of dual/live playthroughs. There are some bands that don't even have 1 playthrough xD

[@pazwretzky4673]

this man doesn't get enough credit...Roman's a fantastic guitar player...look how much of the song he colors in...intricate and solid...beautiful guitar, and I've just noticed, he's starting his own tattoo collection...watch out Tatiana and Eugene

[@3blaha3]

In my opinion Roman does get credit enough.. only because he's not in "kind of" spot light because doesn't do interviews means nothing.. the guy speeks English pretty well, maybe he doesn't want to.. The one guitar band makes it abvious who writes songs..

[@pazwretzky4673]

@@3blaha3 wow, that was a year ago ?...I think what I was referring to then was commentary or feedback by reactors, or even reading through the comments in Jinjer reactions,...the majority of them would mention Tatiana, Eugene and Vlad but Roman rarely, if ever, was talked about, this being a guitar playthrough, of course he's going to be mentioned...I acknowledge he's there, I see him, I hear him, and it's great that people in this comment section, and you do as well

[@TernimatriX]

@@3blaha3 Roman is well known to my eyes. I'd love to meet him and the crew one day. The shows are fantastic

[@juanleon2732]

maybe the man is just the quiet one, but for sure all of them are well-versed musicians!

[@jonaswalter9800]

he’s my favorite guitarist of this generation 100%. dude does it effortlessly it’s incredible.

[@williamduckett3407]

So badass! Roman prefers to do his soloing while riffing. Such a talented man!

[@imapman1]

Well, this goes to shows that there is always something good about every Jinjer song even if it is not a particular favorite as in this case for me. This is badass. I also always keep in mind when I listen to these playthroughs that Tati has to come up with a melody and lyrics for these instrumental compositions. In this case, she came up with some dark lyrics to match the heavy sound of this, so I think she did a good job and I get it even though I can't relate to it. It is all very ingenious and my appreciation always grows with deeper analysis.

[@williamduckett3407]

@@imapman1 well said, friend!

[@leviathan3630]

@@imapman1 Funny how you mention how Tatiana comes up with the melody... I was just noticing how simple and repetitive the section starting at about 2:01 sounds without her melodic vocals set over the top, which really bring the song to life.

[@imapman1]

@@leviathan3630 Those simple parts may be the easiest for her. Tati said in an interview the guys lay down the instrumental tracks first and then she spends a couple of weeks listening to it to come up with the melody and lyrics. I told William this song was too dark for me at first, but after hearing the guitar playthrough I began to appreciate how she was able to match the sound and the vibe of the instrumental work. After seeing the "Live At Kiev" video I completely realized how fantastic it is for Tati to use her low metal voice to deliver the scary drama and impact of this song. Before they play the song on "Alive In Melbourne" Tati says "Now it is time for darkness and negativity - yuck!" Well, it is what it is because she came up with something dark to match the sinister sound of Roman's guitar work and now I think it's fantastic.

[@wtw5002]

Dude's got riffs for days. And one hell of a cool guitar.

[@j.f.fisher5318]

right? It isn't just that he's an incredibly skilled player, the sheer volume and diversity of awesome riffs is so impressive.

[@pistoff7697]

Such a unique player. Arpeggios and chunky assed riffs. Challenging time changes. They are great live. I hope Jinjer sticks around for a long time! 🤘🏼

[@saadesigner07]

I don't think I have ever seen a band that had this much all around talent. Each individual person is world class at their position. Love every member. Met them all, and were all so polite and personable. Been considering a Jinjer tattoo, because I know they are the real deal.

[@cosmicwakes6443]

I love his dry tone, it suits the music perfectly. Everything about this band fits so well.

[@randovision8418]

HOLY SHIT. ROMAN FINALLY CAME THROUGH. THANK YOU SIR. you are amazing.

[@TelekineticCheez]

That riff at 2:20 is so good. I could listen to it on repeat

[@DerekWiedenheft]

So so fucking good.

[@hemlock399]

I also love the slow, doomy section that follows, where the 1st bar ends in a slide up into a vibrato chord, the 2nd bar ends in a highly dissonant chord, & the 3rd bar ends in silence. So beautifully dark. These compositions are incredible!

[@viniciusribeiro7279]

Let’s hear some love for Roman’s incredible talent. As “the quiet one” in the band he often goes unnoticed but he’s an integral part of their unique sound.

[@dsp5196]

Drop A and heavy ass gauge strings... Look at the 6th string flapping in the wind! Amazing 😍

[@darinmitchell1322]

At first I thought it was a 7 string then I seen it wasn't. Scanned the comments yours was first to mention tuning thanks my friend. I got old set fender subsonic strings I gotta dig them out see what Gage they are

[@slipknotpurity00]

Such a great song, a perfect capture of what current Jinjer sounds like

[@j.f.fisher5318]

So impressive

[@skullduggery1616]

The core of Jinjer right here folks!! I've said it before - Roman puts the nuke in nuclear, the metal in metallurgy, the Pro in progressive and the fr'kn Gin in Jinjer!! Go brotha, you ARE THE MAN!! Love all yer play-thrus....! Love to see more of'm from Micro/Macro!!! (...and don't tell nobody, but uh...I'm a drummer!)

[@ReclaimerSnake]

Not trying to disrespect this god, but the bass in jinjer is the soul of jinjer

[@arghydoodles1921]

@@ReclaimerSnake i think the bassist is great but you could also say the same thing about the drummer. all four of these guys put together great stuff.

[@infernapeDLS]

@@arghydoodles1921 I would say all the instrumentalists are amazing.the fact that they also have arguably on of the better modern vocalists isnt even fair xD

[@j.f.fisher5318]

@@ReclaimerSnake That might be the soul - and Eugene's bass work is the first to make me say "Wow I love that bass", but go back and listen to OIMACTTA before Eugene joined. The body of their music in everything we have on record from them has always been Roman's diverse and prolific riffs, even before Tati joined. That's what allows them to create songs that change constantly, always sound unique, yet are always unmistakably Jinjer. That's constantly changing guitar landscape is the foundation on which Tatiana is able to work her magic. Not saying Roman is better or something, just saying it is grotesquely unfair that his contribution is so routinely overlooked.

His guitar is a piece of art .

[@ryanschindler923]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how good he's plays on those thick ass strings he's using, 14-68..... for a 6 string lol. But I guess when your tuning 3 whole steps down plus a drop on the top you need some meaty ass strings to keep the tension going.

[@Swampster70]

Each time I watch this video the dramatic parts remind me so much of Randy Rhoads. Sometimes it makes me feel sad that Randy is no longer with us but it makes me happy we have guys like Roman playing like this. That guitar is very nice too. The best part for me is that they write songs that are so intricate that you can nerd out about the music when you listen to each instrument individually but when you play the song off the CD, it just sounds like a well written song. The parts flow together so well that sometimes you don't realize that there is this complicated web of music being played that is coloring the music.

[@CaliopeCalia]

Not gonna lie but I've really been waiting for this

[@FalconFlurry]

I keep on losing the keys From reality And now I'm passing on the wheel To insanity In a secluded corner Waiting for my time to come Waiting for the bedlam To be pacified I am climbing hand over fist And I scratch concrete Shine in the end my mistake It's not there The air is terribly heavy here It settles inside And I suffer burn, after burn From the dark Burn In a pit of consciousness Squeal is bleeding So I feel there was someone else Before me Eyes are changing colors A stranger knocks on my mind I became a foreigner To myself! Myself! Stillness stuns, wish I'd run Creeped away to the light In my head someone else Setting snares For my soul In the darkest place What was once named consciousness I'm a miniature I'm a sketch forfeiting outlines Irrelevant entity to sanity A hive for nonsense For multiple selves Resonating, but never compromising Stillness stuns, wish I'd run Creeped away to the light In my head someone else Setting snares For my soul For my soul Waiting for my mind to be pacified

The guitarists I like the most are the ones who contribute to the song instead of monopolizing it (unless you're Tosin Abasi, then be my guest), and Roman is a perfect example of this. The arpeggios starting at 00:45 are so friggin' sweet, not to mention the syncopated riffs at the beginning, but I digress.

[@bw6138]

Jinjer reminds me of Lamb of God, the early days of Mastodon, Mudvayne, and Lacuna Coil. But, they are still an original band with original music. I love Jinjer! They are cool on and off the stage.
