Thinking of Tatiana, Eugene, Vlad and Roman (and all of their respective families and friends) at this extremely difficult and upsetting time. Sending love to Ukraine 🇺🇦❤🙏

[@dbell582]

Same here. I’m very concerned not only for them but their countrymen. I hope we hear from Jinjer soon. I know they’re supposed to be in the US with Slipknot and In This Moment this coming few months. I have been traveling and hoping to get tickets for their April 1st performance as I missed all of their (Jinjer’s) performances last year. I hope they are good and able to get out of Ukraine. Excellent reaction as always. Really happy you enjoyed this. It’s one of my favorite videos of theirs. A lot of ppl like the one from Kiev which I do but I still prefer this one.

[@JeffWheezingGrampusGoddard]

It's through their music and interviews that i've come to understand the situation in Ukraine. The developments of the last 48 or so hours have been heartbreaking and like you, I wish them and all their fellow Ukrainians nothing but the fondest of wishes and the most heartfelt love. Peace, love and harmony. 💕

[@Qyngali]

@@dbell582 they have released a statement that they and others involved with the band are safe, including their families. Let's hope it stays that way. I am more concerned with the rest of the citizens of Ukraine...

[@scambammer6102]

Roman does a playthrough of this song that is well worth seeing, esp for guitarists.

[@Dark__Thoughts]

@@Qyngali They're likely still within Ukraine, due to martial law, potentially even Kiev. At least Tatiana is in the US with her husband, but probably worried sick. :(

[@leob3447]

Tatiana singing over extended blast beats always makes my day

[@SparkimusPrime]

One of my favorites from them! Much love to everyone in Ukraine and their families 🖤 And I hope everything goes well with the puppers ♥️

[@Adam_Le-Roi_Davis.]

This was the song that first got Jinjer noticed by Napalm Records, I love this track, it's great to see how much they've evolved since.

[@syncoyava8950]

I don’t often leave comments but I wanted to say how much I appreciate your excellent reactions. So honest and informative, I have learned so much since finding your channel. I find I am listening to bands like Jinger in a whole new way! Also I can’t echo your thoughts on Ukraine more. Such a desperate time, my thoughts and prayers are with the whole country. Thanks again for your hard work, much appreciated 👍

[@hemlock399]

Re "some fans" may have trouble accepting their recent evolution, you're speaking directly to the "meh album" / "when they made good music" guy, well known to all of us Jinjer connoisseurs.

[@tomislavkosanovic1104]

Don't step aside, fight back with full force, pick up the weapon A sad, dark time for humanity again.

[@Jinjer13]

thanx for your competent reaction for another great Jinjer song. I EXPRESS MY DEEP COMPASSION TO ALL PEOPLE IN UKRAINE

[@jeffwellman8347]

Another great reaction. thanks for doing this.

[@brandbird]

This song is relentless.

[@tomislavkosanovic1104]

Thanks for this, John, but I'm watchin it stunned, through a haze of sadness and with a knot in my stomach. Hope this madness ends soon enough.

[@skullduggery1616]

Dude. Gotta say I love yer reactions - so great to hear someone who knows WHY this band is so great tell it like it is. Meanwhile, so glad you did this one!! I always call this song part of the "unholy trinity of mayhem" which if you listen to KOE (King of Everything) starting with "Sit.Stay.Rollover.", followed directly by "Under the Dome", followed then by "Dip a Sail", with no pause between these three songs, well, you'll feel like you've been thrown from a speeding train in a tunnel. Absolute mayhem. And Under the Dome is one of few songs Tati sings only growls on (with some chant); no cleans. Anyways, give it a try sometime! And to show my appreciation for your work here's a treat for you - the core of Jinjer's nuclear reactor, the man himself, Roman playing Sit Stay Rollover guitar play-thru. Enjoy! And Peace to Ukraine! kzbin.info/www/bejne/anaUfZqBqNGarpY

[@mikedanger6323]

This video was produced before they were signed by Napalm Records (this video lead to their signing...) so I image the budget for this video was less than their newer videos which could account for the production compromises. It is a special day (indeed) when I find you have released a new reaction...

[@BTAColorado]

As much as I enjoy your videos (particularly the Jinjer ones!) my favorite part of this one is the title. I'm 100% right there with you on that sentiment 🤣

[@JimboKM]

Just listened to some Aurora. I really needed it. I always can use some Sit Stay Roll Over to make me smile.

[@Onitsutube]

Vlad had a BIG influence on the direction in which JINJER's music is going... and a good one as well ;o)

[@module79l28]

Everything you said about the production of this album, especially when it comes to the drums, is not just your opinion, it's mine too. Kim wasn't a full band member and they probably let him have the production he wanted for the drums to avoid conflicts (i.e sample replacement and grid alignement) because they needed to put out an album and they needed a drummer for the album tour until they found a permanent replacement. I've always wondered if the reason why there are no videos of him playing these songs live it's because they didn't sound nearly as good as on the album, so they chose not to record and/or release them. That's the biggest difference regarding Vlad's "era": the songs are created to be recorded but they're made in a way that they also have to work very well live. There's always a bit more production in the studio versions, of course, but they can even carry some of that studio production into a live setting and make it work as well. My first contact with Jinjer was also the Pisces live session and Vlad's work also caught my attention for being not what you'd "expect" from a modern Metal band (feel and production wise), so I was kind of disappointed when I started listening to the rest of the album songs, recorded by Kim, and found the same type of generic drum sounds that over time had made me stop listening to 99% of modern Metal. It sounds like a programmed drum machine, tight, always in time but flat and soulless, and that's why I prefer all the live versions of the King of Everything songs with Vlad rather than the studio versions. When the Micro EP was released, I read many comments hating on Vlad's snare sound and his overall drum sound because those people were expecting a follow up to King of Everything. I, for one, was expecting more "Pisces live session" style of drumming, so I loved his raw, organic, human sound. And Roman's guitar sound on Macro made me love them even more! 🙂

[@fjolagu]

Great reaction as always. Jinjer are hitting differently in these tragic days 😓

[@bennikolajevs5865]

We know the new stuff has been difficult for that one particular guy to move on to.

[@stangcobra592]

OMG people that guy is a Joke why are you giving him/her any recognition? They sit in mommys basement on a daily basis and look for ANY new Jinjer video to bash.

[@whrussy]

This was the song that got them signed to Napalm as far as I recall.

[@stangriffinstan_the_alaska9668]

It's Jinjer time and you know I'm here . They have said that this is the hardest song to do live just saying. Peace from Stan the Alaskan

[@arc6017]

Absolute banger!! Love this so much!! I also like their most recent stuff but damn do I miss this older "simpler" sound!! It´s just overkill in the most positive of ways. Great reaction as always, cheers!

[@pabloragusa]

Oh man! One of my top songs from Jinjer... I get what you see about both different styles of drumming and maybe on your own time you should listen to the Melbourne version with Vlad to keep the bromance going as hot as ever! (or maybe here on YT, so we can enjoy watching you find out the differences.) Great reaction and analysis as usual and best of wishes to your doggo! Take care John!

[@JWSoundworks2]

Thank you very much! :)

​​@@JWSoundworks2 Teasers: new album coming next spring maybe.. waiting for it, and your reaction/analysis on it. They say it's gonna Be heavier and More melodic.

Poor pup, hope he's ok. I used to have malamutes & I honestly think my beginnings of my growling & gutterals were from telling them off for like digging a 2m damn den in the yard 🤣 Tatiana has just the best growls & screams. I think my first intro to women being able to do it was actually one of my mates. I had heard the recording but didn't realise who it was until I saw them live & I was like "woah damn" cos Jess could pull a Courtney & go from screams to cleans. If you wanna check em out Voltera "do what your daddy say" & "knees" are worth it

[@hamedsuleiman3239]

Thanks That was beautiful Do you want to hear something you haven't heard from them before? Try Biggars' Dance You will like it very much

Great and informative reaction as per the usual for your reactions. Thoughts for all those in Ukraine. 🤘🍻

Dmitry still works with the band as a consultant in the studio helping with the sound

[@timprice5747]

This song is so much fun live. Hoping for the best for Ukraine.

[@stub011]

Resurrection Fest 2018 (I think) is also a great live version of this if you want to check out it live as it smacks hard live ( and with Vlad on drums as is the Melbourne 2020 one of Alive in Melbourne)🤘🤘🤘

Wah wah wah...... Manthaab.........

[@JWSoundworks2]

🎵🎸Moody, atmospheric, instrumental, one-man-band prog? Right this way 👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5-6lmadlJyjp6M

[@RalphCahill]

This song actually has 2 different guitarists in this studio recording, Both Roman and Dmitry Oksen (their previous 2nd guitarist) were involved in the recording of this album so the guitar tones are are a mix of the 2 of them. Dmitry left the band before they started recording music videos for the album which is why he's absent. This is also why Roman can break out into a lead part in the middle of the song, because it's written and recorded for 2 guitarists. Though if I were guessing, I'd bet that's actually Dmitry's lead part from the album that Roman is just "playing" for the video. Seems like more of a Dmitry tappy, tappy part.

[@stangcobra592]

Nice JW 👍This track is a more straightforward thrashing riff track, but King of E does have more intricate layered guitar sounds, fullness etc.. in different songs. It's a Great piece of work give it a chance you've only done Pisces, Astronomy and this.And yeah Dmitry is a beast this was 2016, he's even better now, I enjoy watching his drum playthroughs on youtube. Jinjer has been giving updates on their Instagram, they haven't divulged where they actually are, I'm thinking their all here in the US, Tati has been posting a lot of LA photos with her husband Alex of Suicide Silence. Plus their opening for Slipknot on shows very soon. Ukraine didn't ask for this it's terrible!

[@METALYOGAVEGAN]

I remember when JINJER come to my city and all the venue was insane when they played especially this song. Was mesmerizing, the pit and the crowd was mayhem !!! Great reaction and thoughts. I suggest checking VINTERSEA - FIERY TONGUE (Official Quarantine Playthrough Video) kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6u9Yn9uZrigm6s Happy Metal Vibes 🎶🤘🏼❤️

[@oldmanjimh3165]

Which is more intimidating, the shepherd or Tati?

[@roytaylor8326]

Sorry I am late to see your reaction mate, but as you have heard it is a seriously intense song, also I heard Tati in an interview stating that this song is about their nextdoor neighbors, along with two empires collide, and also now the song home back has a lot more relevance to this situation.PS Eugene has put out a short statement on their channel.

[@briangood2048]

Late to the party on this reaction, but I agree wholeheartedly that the newer Jinjer tracks need you to work more as a listener. The older songs are amazing and on my first listen they range probably between a 7 to 9 out of 10 with a small .5 to 1 notch gained on subsequent listens. The last 2 records I'd say they can sometimes start at a lower score, but increase multiple times on secondary listens. Basically, I'm saying that the newer tracks have an overall higher ceiling and it is difficult to catch all the complexities the first time through, leading to the belief that I'm not sure I like it at first even though all the elements are present.

[@stevekallio6783]

Another great reaction JW. I agree, Dmitry is a monster drummer as well, just a different drumming style than Vlad, but both are excellent. They performed this song in their live in Melbourne concert, it has it's own video so maybe on your free time you can check it out. Vlad plays it pretty much the same as Dmitry, of course he has some slight differences, but it sounds pretty close to this. Anyhow keep up the great reactions my friend, and I'm with you, say a little prayer for the people in Ukraine during this difficult time. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶🎶🇺🇦🇺🇦🙏🙏
