THIS BAND IS AMAZING! | JINJER - Perennial LIVE (REACTION)

Time to see what JINJER have in a live setting, I was recommended the Wacken Open Air 2019 version of Perennial. Here we go!

Any of the live in Kyiv official videos are spectacular. I personally like the entire Hellfest from Home streamed concert from '21. They are on stage with full production and effects going on with no audience but their energy is still at 100. I challenge you to find a bad Jinjer song. There will be some you like less than others, but I believe you won't dislike any of their catalog.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I completely believe you! They strike me as a band that puts out banger after banger!

[@moneypants]

That Hellfest show was sweet during the pandemic. I also really loved Down's NOLA stream they did doing that whole album

[@mikedulin1325]

You should do a double reaction...Pit of Consciousness. OMV, then the live in Kyiv. Pit of Consciousness is amazing.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I will get there eventually! I have decided to go back a bit further with Jinjer and work my way to the present 😊

[@shaunbryan3421]

If ya want to see them go as hard as woodpecker lips check out Jinjer Pit of Consciousness live in Kiev.

[@jeffwellman2883]

You would like "Who is Gonna be the One" (Live, Napalm Records). Good reaction (Subbed)

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Thanks for the sub, I will get there eventually 😊

[@frankh9600]

Welcome to our rabbit hole. In case, definite live version to go next are "Who's gonna be the one" (offical Napalm Records) and "Pit of Consciousness" Kiyv 2018. Next studio live is a one take vocal performance of "Judgement and Punishment". I propose the three as these display prominently Jinjers breadth of musical styles and of course the vocalist's role of being the lead instrument instead of a lead guitar, violin, saxophone...

[@benburch460]

If you like that sort of musical journey, then their songs Vortex and Teacher, Teacher will be right up your alley

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I will get there eventually, keep your eyes peeled 🙂

[@Oneminutemindfulness]

Little side note. That gold suit was breaking down and she was swearing like crazy in it. So what does she do in the most awesome fashion. She took it and put it on the merch table for a fan to buy! She’s next level!💙💛💙💛

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

That is really awesome of her! I am sure the fan treasures it and one day they might be able to trade it for a house or something 😂

[@bobabier5394]

Saw them this year in Wacken. It was wild^^ I also never saw before so many blue and yellow at a concert or festival. She had the greatest audience you could ever imagine but she did not lose too many words about the war. Well she could have talked an hour or more and we would be standing there, listening and cheering but i understand time is precious at Wacken.

[@jessicastephens7725]

Check out Vortex by them. Amazing

[@That_Metal_Dude]

I saw Jinjer in a tiny ass venue here in Kentucky, I actually have a video on my page...so good!!!

[@thomaskellyjr6370]

Teacher Teacher, Vortex, Disclosure, Mediator, Judgement and Punishment one take vocal, Call Me A Symbol, if you liked the dreads Outlander is an old banger!

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

It seems like I may be going back the dreads, I want to do an "in order" series for Jinjer like I am for Sleep Token. 😊

[@glebivanov6323]

​@@BraindeadBreakdownif you are looking for an order than you need get back to 2011-2012 😂 and check out so called "baby Jinjer". Scissors or Exposed As A Liar is a good start. A couple of weeks ago I found rare, almost unknown Jinjer live in Romania (2013 or 2014 I guess). It has one of the best quality of sound and video speaking about earlier Jinjer lives. It gives very good vision at the earlier Jinjer stuff and presence. I'll provide you the link when I'll find it. Not for reaction (it's a full concert, longer than hour), just for your interest.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I saw how far back i had to go and thought it may be a condensed "in order" series haha 😂 Just tell me the title and I will find it, YT is funny about links being posted sometimes!

[@glebivanov6323]

​@@BraindeadBreakdown well, you know, the main reason why this live is unknown is related to the title of the video. It's "jinjer" 😂 And without any description. I doubt it's possible to find it just by the title search. But you can try to search it by channel name "Ion Dragusanul". It doesn't have many videos, you could find there Jinjer's live easily. Most of the stuff you could hear in this live they don't perform nowadays. Actually "Who's Gonna Be The One" is the only one song they returned recently to their live setlists. Most of the other stuff is from their first album (with Tatiana) and even some songs from their previous material (they had male singer before Tatiana). I doubt it's possible to find on YT better live quality for part of this rare material.

[@Adam_Le-Roi_Davis.]

I recommend the following tracks to react to by them: 'Teacher Teacher' the official music video, 'On The Top' and 'Pit of Consciousness' both live in Kiev, 'Judgement (and Punishment)' Tatiana's One-Take Vocal version, 'Who Is Going to Be The One' live, 'Vortex' the official music video, 'Just Another' live, 'Home Back' the official music video, this one is a personal one for the band it's about the invasion of the area of the Ukraine which they're from by Russian troops in 2015, 'Call Me A Symbol' the official music video, there are plenty of other tracks but these ones are good to continue with.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Thank you for the recommendations, I will get there eventually! I promise 🙂

[@Adam_Le-Roi_Davis.]

​@@BraindeadBreakdownNo problem, my pleasure. They're a great band and deserve the recognition.

[@Double_J_48629]

the OMV for this song is amazing (simple, but elegant). this is around the time they really started pouring lots of money in to their music videos, and it only went up from there.

[@casandralorensen4910]

My favorite performance is Pit of Consciousness live in Kyiv. In their song Outlander she has dreads. It's also a good song.

[@coder4liberty]

I always thought the same about that moment. It gets to the point where it's "okay I'm exhausted that's enough stage presence". She's known for her stage presence but no doubt it takes a toll. Some songs more than others. In fact the official live version of Sit Stay Roll Over is a good example. She's out of breath at the end of that one too. In Outlander Live at Loudfest she has the dreads. That's really good one too.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Even if I had the talent to do what she does, I doubt I would be able to do it for a whole set! She is incredible!

[@Robertsmith-dy3sh]

One of the very best live bands on the planet, along with The Warning, easily two of the best live bands that I have ever seen in my close to 50 years of going to concerts! Awesome reaction, subbed!

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Thank you for the sub! There will be more Jinjer reactions hitting the channel soon, I promise 😊

[@tribaltalker1608]

Subbed. I'm looking forward to you reacting to "Judgement (& Punishment)" One Take Vocal Performance. Just Tati and a microphone.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Thank you for the sub! I will definitely get there!

Been a fucking fan for a few years now.. Saw them live a month ago....FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCking amazing :) Go for ''Who is gonna be the one'' live....fucking good as well

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I would imagine that it was a great show!

[@Angelriva]

Nice reaction thanks!! To find out that kind of talent from each one of them at the years of 2020 - when I listened to them for the first time - it was a stunning surprise. They 4 are out of this world. Please keep Jinjer coming no matter what song they all are great songs

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I will definitely be doing more JINJER on the channel! Don't worry about that 😊

[@timprice5747]

Yes for your own enjoyment you should check out the official video for this song, it is fun.

[@rofyle]

They've been around since 2010. She designs her own clothes, and for every tour she changes her look. Back during the Crowd Factory tour (2013-14?) she dressed like a cheerleader. The gold jumpsuit was for the Macro tour (2019-20). For the current tour she's sporting black leather shorts and knee high boots. There's another band you should check out. They're produced by the same guy who produces for Jinjer, Max Morton. Their name is Ignea. They recently released a new video for their song, "Dunes".

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Ignea have already been added to my list 😊 I don't know how long it will take to get there because there is a LOT ahead of it. But I will get there 😊

[@glebivanov6323]

Sit Stay Rollover is the last OMV or live (except Perennial OMV) where you can see Tatiana's dreadlocks. But before that song Tatiana had dreadlocks for many years, since the high school I guess. She was a total tomboy before she decided to change her presence. So if you are looking for dreadlocks - pick literally any Jinjer song, older than SSR OMV and you'll get it. They had many bangers before SSR. They were less progressive but more metalcorish that days. Less Opeth, Messhugah, Gojira and Alice In Chains vibes, more Lamb of God and Pantera. Although they always tend to prog more or less.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Thanks for the tip. I will clarify that I don't think the dreads will improve the music 😂 They are just badass!

[@glebivanov6323]

​@BraindeadBreakdown yeah but somehow dreads influenced their music 😂 Or vice versa. Anyway Jinjer music changed when Tati cut off her dreads. It became more matured and intricate. You'll probably face some oldschool Jinjer fans who don't approve that switch and still into the earlier "dreadlocked" Jinjer.

[@ukrop55555]

It should be noted that, judging by her presentation of the song, it was the last song in this set (the meaning of the text also fits - goodbye, but not forever, but until the next possible meeting); that is, she had already growled and screamed a little, however less daring for such difficult vocals.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

@@glebivanov6323 You will always have those divisions within a long-standing fanbase though. It sucks, but oh well 😂

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

@@ukrop55555 It always amazes me how they keep it up for so long at concerts! I can't imagine projecting my voice for that long!

[@brianalmeida1964]

Great reaction to one of my favourite Jinjer songs! One that I actually prefer the live version to the studio version. There are bands like Nightwish where I actually prefer most of their songs live, especially since Floor Jansen became their lead singer back in 2013. For a good example, you should check out Nightwish-Ghost Love Score live from Wacken 2013. Might be a good introduction to symphonic metal if you aren't familiar with the genre. Stay safe 🤘 ✌️

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

Symphonic metal is closer to what I used to listen to, I used to like Nightwish! I will check that out though, thanks! 🤘

[@Coyotecyb]

everyone acts like she is the fist person to ever do this. She IS amazing but she isn't the first and you should go find Black Veil by Straight line stitch

[@PittDaddy]

If you love slap bass, technical guitar and power/thrash metal, you need to listen to Lovebites out of Japan. To start, listen to their song The Hammer of Wrath live from their latest tour Knockin at Heaven's Gate

[@frankh9600]

Or just Faith No More.

@@BraindeadBreakdown Yeah, my late teens early twenties. Just the slapping of the bass strings.

[@danielsand8989]

I love great women vocalists, Jinjer is a amazing, but I prefer more mixed harsh / clean vocals, or only cleans. Besides Unleash the Archers with amazing Brittany Slayes the Band BATTLE BEAST is my most favorite band actually. Because Noora Louhimo is a real Valkyrie. Maybe give it a try, if you don't know: "Battle Beast - Wings of Light"

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I am with you, I usually prefer a mix or just straight cleans. I will add it to the list thank you!

[@thomasharper3185]

OK, you’ve been broken in enough. Next check out Lorna Shore to the hellfire. This will go to the other extreme of heaviness while still being extremely musical and beautiful.Jinjer, Lorna Shore, and sleep token are among my favorites right now as well as animals as leaders for the instrumental side

I haven't paid any attention for a while. In a way it is great, there is all this great music to binge!

[@wally837]

I disagree with your live verses studio sound. I do agree that it is much easier to determine the level of talent a band has when hearing a live performance. For the record I have been a metal head since the mid 80's. This particular track sounds almost identical to the studio version. With songs like "Teacher, Teacher!" the vocal doubling effects on the studio track is better than the live version, IMHO.

[@BraindeadBreakdown]

I was stating my opinion in general, at the time of recording I had not heard the studio track so I had thing to compare it to. But with all of my favourite bands, I usually take my favourite live version over studio. Each to their own though 🙂

[@wally837]

@@BraindeadBreakdown That is the wonderful thing about opinions, we are both right😁

[@galacticcaveman4045]

Not mentioning any names, but some bands are absolute garbage live. And you have to remember, the album version is how the band/artists intended it to sound, especially on a good system or headphones, you're not going to get that sound live. Don't get me wrong, being there live is a total different experience than sitting in your house. As for sound though, album version is WAY better, hands down.

[@moneypants]

Great comment about the opposite of Sleep Token with the soft/heavy. Noticed that as well but the opposite as I heard Jinjer prior to discovering ST.
