'WHAT DID I JUST WATCH!?!' My Girlfriend's INCREDIBLE First Time Reaction to Jinjer - Pisces!

[@greglanders1]

She wanted more! I love watching someone fall in love with this band. Great reaction! Thank you

[@surg20]

Next. 1) Teacher!Teacher! the OMV. 2) Perennial live at Wacken 2019, 3) Vortex the OMV. Lez Go!

[@fantus01]

the shocking moment n this performance is the high belt at the end

[@spiknaaj]

One of the best live bands out there. You will not be disappointed! Look forward to more reactions (you gotta get in as many as you can so you can get the most out of the gig 😊 )

[@stephanie4205]

We definitely are!!

[@bernhardkulzer9125]

Well, nobody lives in a hole on the backside of the moon, so also Jinjer has influences. Thing with Jinjer is they know patterns of music but everytime you think you know what to expect - they simply change it! Every song of them is like a rollercoaster. Only with a rollercoaster you know where you come out again. 🤣🤘 And no, they fled already 2014 from Donezk when the shit overthere started. But war reached them again in Kiev of course. As ambassadors for Ukraine they were allowed to go on tours. And they have one of the most beautiful an haunting anti-war songs I know: "Home back". Well, I`d say, try it out!

[@dhavaram8064]

Yes "Home Back" is an amazing song!

[@danielbeck9310]

Fun fact: Thursday Jinjer is dropping the first single off their upcoming album. So, you might want to check that one out.

[@ericpeterson7512]

It's FIRE!

[@danmaxwell8668]

Pit Of Consciousness by Jinjer is a must listen! Also Home Back is a powerful song of theirs about the horrific war in Ukraine.

[@andrebrodbeck3883]

She isn't a ginger, BUT she is a pisces!

[@jeffwellman2883]

Welcome to Jinjer. Tatiana is a vocal goddess and the band is a collection of amazing musicians. I highly recommend reacting to "Perennial" live at Wacken 2019 for a follow up reaction. Well done (Subbed)

[@aviewfromthestage]

I agree!! Annnnd we DID react to the live version of Perennial. Look for that one soon!

[@cdawg7138]

Vortex. Perennial. Someone's Daughter (brand new). Also, check out Alissa White-Gluz of Arch Enemy. Angela Gossow (Alissa's predecessor). Morgan Lander of Kittie. Courtney LaPlante of Spiritbox. Alexis Brown of Straight Line Stitch. Otep. Enjoy!

[@hemlock399]

"She's scary!" LOL, great reaction! She's actually a down to earth, soft spoken sweetheart!

[@frankh9600]

Go on with her. Next Perennial Live Wacken 2019 or Teacher Teacher OMV

[@j.f.fisher5318]

Heads-up they have something releasing on August 1. If it's the new album I'm slightly terrified as the music was mostly composed during and shortly after the seige of Kyiv where the guys were trapped hearing artillery and missile fire incoming constantly. As intense as their usual stuff is, I can't even imagine. YT had been recommending thisto me a LOT. But nothing about "Jinjer"+"Pisces"+low-key thymbnail grabbed my interest and I cynically figured if they were getting recommended there was probably a ton of studio money backing them and they weren't anything I'd be interested in. Haha how wrong I was. Just search and sort by view count and binge them on camera. It's all epic. Subbed. Cheers!

[@aviewfromthestage]

Cheers to YOU good sir! Super interesting about the release... and the fact that we are seeing them in a couple of months. :)

[@j.f.fisher5318]

@@aviewfromthestage that's epic. They're great on stage. Been lucky enough too see them twice. Have fun! You might get some new material. ;)

[@coder4liberty]

A good next one would be Perennial Live at Wacken Open Air 2019. Or you could go with a little shock and awe with Captain Clock Live at Resurrection Fest or Pit of Consciousness Live in Kyiv.

[@MLuxemburg]

🔥Welcome to Jinjer Stephanie and thank you Rob! I just found your channel, saw your Jinjer reaction and subbed, great reaction! Thank you both for bringing the fantastic genre twisting music of Jinjer to more people! I love their energy, how tight they are, how down to earth they are, the heaviness mixed with complexity and groove, beautiful singing and growling and especially Tatiana's lyrics! The first time I heard Pisces in 2019, I hadn't liked any metal with growling and it took me a few listens to start liking it, but now Tatiana is my favorite vocalist and Jinjer my favorite band (Pisces has been my wake up alarm for a few years and I still love it more every time I hear it, snooze is a thing of the past). TLDR: skip to the last paragraph 😂 Sorry for the long comment, I just love Jinjer too much and love seeing people discover (and usually fall in love with) them and each of their songs! My three favorite comments about Jinjer that I've seen, "terrifying levels of talent", "I hate it when a Jinjer song ends", and a mother quoting her four year old wanting to see the "lion lady" again 🤣 All four current members of Jinjer have essentially no formal musical training except Vlad the drummer who studied classical piano. For most of their songs, the three guys write most of the instrument music, then Tatiana writes most of the lyrics and melodies (she gets tons of well deserved credit for her vocal and stage performance abilities, but maybe not quite enough for her lyrical and musical composition abilities). Roman the guitarist has written a lot of the instrument music in the past, so he's a huge part of the beautiful sound of Jinjer, but Vlad the drummer (who also plays guitar and classical piano, but so far not in most Jinjer songs - I think he played piano in lainnereP) has been writing more of it and wrote nine of the eleven songs for the last album Wallflowers (next album is done recording, and might have an announcement or release on Aug 1st). Eugene composes some - he wrote the instrument music for one song on Wallflowers and a few songs on other albums, and I know that apart from his amazing work on the bass, he adds riffs and has written lyrics for a few Jinjer songs. Jinjer has been a tour-heavy band, touring almost nonstop from 2013 to 2020 and much of the time since then (with interruptions by covid and the US backed coup/proxy war), hard work that has made them fantastic live performers. The band (all members have been Ukrainian, with Russian their first language) started in eastern Ukraine (Donetsk) in 2008 as a group of three (then five) with none of the current members (they consider the official start of the band when Tatiana replaced the male vocalist and Roman joined as lead guitar 2009/2010), Vlad is the fifth drummer (joined in 2016) and it's been a group of four since 2015 (though they consider their road sound engineer Sasha to be a fifth member). I think they're still friends with all the former members and you can see their former guitarist turned actor, Dmitry Oksen, in older videos on guitar and a more recent video (Disclosure) playing an interrogator. One of the things I love most about Jinjer is the messages in Tatiana's lyrics and the way she combines growling and beautiful singing with Jinjer's fantastic instrumentals to be so powerful for expressing the anger and pain in those messages: the anti-war message in Home Back, the anti-greed in On The Top, Mediator and No Hoard Of Value (also the horror of the coal mining industry in their home Ukraine), the protest song Who Is Gonna Be The One, the anti-fascism of Sit Stay Roll Over, the anger at people being narrow minded in Teacher Teacher and Judgment & Punishment, the struggles with mental health in Pit Of Consciousness, Vortex, Wallflower and Perennial, the giving voice to mother nature angry at humanity for letting capitalism destroy her in a bunch of songs like Ape, The Prophecy, Cloud Factory, Noah, Outlander and Bad Water. Other favorites are I Speak Astronomy, Retrospection, Words of Wisdom, Just Another, Captain Clock, Scissors, Exposed As A Liar, I Want It I'll Get It, A Plus Or A Minus, Dip A Sail, When Two Empires Collide, lainnereP, Prologue and Beggar's Dance (those last two are short album bookends that could do well together in one reaction if you're so inclined). I haven't found a Jinjer song I don't love, so I think you can't go wrong if you choose any of them, but a few good choices might be Perennial (I saw your comment that you already reacted to the live at Wacken 2019 performance - thank you!), Teacher Teacher (official is the studio audio with some great footage from several shows), Judgement & Punishment (official and/or Tatiana's one take performance, again both must-see), Pit of Consciousness (official and/or live in Kiev/Kyiv, a third where both are absolutely must-see) or the heartwrenching plea against war in Home Back (official video). Thank you! I hope you'll keep trying out more Jinjer songs and enjoy! ❤🖤🤘❤

[@stephanie4205]

THANK YOU for your comment. I LOVED reading this. Thank you for getting us caught up on what Jinjer is all about. It's crazy how she had no formal music training. She's such a natural. Every one though is incredible. I didn't just enjoy her singing, but literally everything was perfect. The amount of creativity and subtly they bring... Have you seen them live? It sounds like their lyrics run deep from what you're saying. I love that. We need more of that! I'm making note of the songs you mentioned. Sounds like we found a pure gem!! We're going to check out Teacher Teacher next! We have already recorded Perennial and wow. You'll see it soon!

[@dhavaram8064]

I saw an interview with them and Tatiana said she was listening to OTEP when she was younger, and would practice emulating her screams & growls into her pillow. She said that's how she initially learned that skill, but she has since had some more formal training to learn to do her growls in a healthier way that won't harm her vocal cords

[@banier2012]

[@EmAllWasTaken]

Damn that was quick. Tickets already? Good for you :) Now it’s excellent time to dive into their discography?

[@stephanie4205]

We were so blown away! I can’t imagine seeing them live. The energy! Omg!

[@claudiocunha7672]

great reaction.....welcome to the band jinjer and the goddess tatiana......next react "i speak astronomy live summer breeze"

[@dhavaram8064]

I know the band wishes more people would listen to "I Speak Astronomy", and apparently it was the song that resulted the first time Tatiana sat down to write a song about being a Pisces. Then she had another go at it, and wrote the "Pisces" we know. I love both songs, and wish that "I Speak Astronomy" got the attention it deserves.

[@ericpeterson7512]

You're gonna love this band! The more you learn the more you love. They're my favorite band since Rush retired. Every song is not just good, it's wonderful. And as good as their albums are, they're even better live. They're getting ready to tour America in a couple months. I highly recommend you do yourself a huge favor and grab some tickets. They're inexpensive, and may just be a life changer! Aha! You did it! You're gonna be so glad you did that. Get there early, and you can get right up close and have your mind completely blown. Like you, when I learned Jinjer had been around for 12 years before I discovered them, I was kinda mad at myself for having missed out for all those years. Butt they're just getting better and better. This is a great time to be a Jinjer fan. They just dropped a brand new song and video "Someone's Daughter," the first song from the upcoming yet unreleased new album, two days ago. They dropped a new performance/interview video in the Audio Tree "From Nothing" series a couple weeks ago that is pure fire, and a great place to start to get to know the band. Just a couple months ago they released their first official live CD/DVD/Blu-ray, with accompanying live video release. The new album will be out soon. In the meantime they're playing summer festivals in Europe, then touring North America with Hanabie, where they'll debut new unreleased songs. Then back to Europe to tour with Sepultura. So much Jinjer! All of it awesome! They're a very rewarding band to get into. Enjoy the rabbit hole!

Annnnd we ARE going to see them!!!! October 3rd!

My personal favorite video of Jinjer is Pit of Consciousness live in Kiev.The video’s audio and visuals is excellent and the bands performance is great from 2019 in Ukraine before the latest invasion.You won’t be disappointed

100%

[@AudioSnave-VPM]

Perennial live at Wacken 2019 is live and AWESOME!

[@hemlock399]

Stephanie's excited - I love it! For a brief, interesting and entertaining crash-course on Jinjer through the band's own words and live studio performances of 3 great tracks from their 2021 Wallflowers album ("Vortex", "Wallflower" and "Dead Hands Feel No Pain"), check out Audiotree | From Nothing. The live performances are *awesome,* and their discussions give you a good sense of their history, relationships with each other and their attitudes about their art. It's around 23 minutes long, but well worth a reaction.

[@o_d1559]

thanks! Well, my favourite Jinjer song is this one, started me off listening to them :D

[@dhavaram8064]

They made this video to showcase their new drummer (Vladi) at the time, but Tatiana's vocals always grab people first. All of them are such talented musicians. They are so skilled technically and have amazing artistry as well. They are so good live! I saw them last summer at a small venue in the Pittsburgh, PA area. I ended up right in front of the stage in the pit even though I'm in my 50s. They were so unbelievably good, I just couldnt help myself. They all kick ass and Tati is so fierce!!! I suggest the live version of "Who Is Gonna Be The One": kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2fVp2innp1gbtUsi=_CCXWrUppgHp3CFO

[@nicholasjones3207]

I saw jinjer and infected rain referenced all over the place and thought they would be gimmicky but I’m so glad I took the time to listen eventually. Both really good

[@rickslechter7385]

The Anchor Miscreation and Masterpiece are great too!

[@jeffreymcrae3853]

JinJer, Parennial live in Wacken ( pronounced Vaa Ken), Teacher Teacher official video, I speak astronomy are good follow ups going down the JinJer rabbit hole 😃 enjoy 😎

[@aviewfromthestage]

Hell yes!!!

[@danielbeck9310]

@aviewfromthestage you are in for an awesome night! This will be my 4th time seeing them. I'm flying down from Minnesota for the show. This band is incredible live.

[@frankholmes4175]

Me too!

[@TokSic420]

What's your favorite Jinjer song? If Jinjer performs it, it's my favorite!!

[@PittDaddy]

Tatiana's voice is fantastic, but there are several fantastic women vocalists that can growl with the best of them. Listen to Arch Enemy with their singer Alissa White-Gluz. Their song, Handshake with Hell would be a good place to start. The other suggestion is Melissa Bonny in Ad Infinitum. A good starting song is Upside Down. By the way, Floor Jansen can also growl.

[@cird_5208]

"my god she can sing" im like just you wait.

Better late than never. Edit: New Jinjer track just dropped 10 hours ago, Somebody's Daughter.

[@andrebrodbeck3883]

In the meantime, they live more in the USA then in Ukraine. Not only because of the war but also because Tatiana married an American. (The Drummer of Pod) My favorite jinjer song? Dam, the list is long! I speak Astronomie Pit of consciousness (live @ kiev) Wallflower Vortex Mediator Sit stay roll over And this is just the begining of the list.....

[@aviewfromthestage]

SUPER INTERESTING! Because I mentioned Zao in this video.. and because the drummer of POD is WEARING a Zao shirt in the video for Southtown! Awesome! It's allllll connected (and plus.. I'm from Zao's og hometown, and friends with Jesse Smith)

Tati is one of the greatest singers I have ever heard and she is an amazing front woman. I strongly recommend that you watch Who Will Be the One next, and then Teacher Teacher, and Judgement and Punishment, and Perennial... the list goes on! BTW, Elizabeth Jharoff (@TheCharismaticVoice) has a great video explaining how Tati does this- and even one where she uses a laryngoscope to see the false vocal folds as this occurs.

[@bennybuffylove]

Meh !!!!!!!!!!!

Lol Jinjer is ukrainian proggy djent groove metal with complex time-signature maze, polyrhythms and multi-genre blending. They are one of the most talented 4-pieces ever.

[@sleni5501]

great band - bad annoying reaction cause of Stephanie making noise through the hole song, without any meaning!🥱

[@hGames-yu4nh]

You're watching a reaction video, and you're annoyed at someone reacting to the song?

[@sleni5501]

I have seen reactions to this one 100+ times- Yes i feel this one annoying - just because of the high pitch outbreaks.

[@EmAllWasTaken]

I liked her reaction. My Jinjer reactions playlist is over 10k and unlike too many of them her enthusiasm doesn’t annoy me at all.

[@TheKotofoto]

It was totally ok I believe. The reaction was genuine, and it's why we are here initially. Of course I like professionals reactions - from musicians and vocalists of all the kinds, poets and composers, producers etc. But some reactions are just fun, and the picture with sound are quite good like here, it's nice to see another one soul being trapped )))
