Who else does it better? Jinjer- "Just Another" (REACTION)

[@stevebeeson4297]

Yo G, check out Outlander from Jinjer. You gonna dig that one fosho

[@BruinsFan2182]

The switch up back and forth is flawless. No struggle in between. Pure raw talent. I agree Greg. No one can do it better than Tatiana 🤘

[@jimmorris67]

Not many bands can breakdown like Jinjer .Glad you did some earlier stuff.Pit of Consciousness live in Kiev is a great one Outlander the failure color version and Who is gonna be the one live Napalm records are some you haven’t seen yet

[@johnbouche9740]

Old school Jinjer 🤘. Please do more old school Jinjer. Love these guys for real man.

[@Slint1701]

If you really want to see what Jinjer is like, they are coming to a city near you in a few weeks. Tickets are available. Go see them live. It will be the best concert you have ever been to.

[@Skurian_krotesk]

Jinjer has a special place in my heart. They are unique to say the very fucking least. The contrast between the two styles is just everything i need in my mind.

[@Jinjer13]

I 'm very happy that you like JINJER so much!!!!!!!! I feel the same way and "who else does it better"? No one maybe next time: "JINJER Outlander" from > failure .color warm greetings from germany

[@SteveSmith-os5bs]

I just love the way Jinjer infused Jazz into this song.

'Cloud Factory' by Jinjer is a BANGER

🔥I just found your channel, saw you had more than one Jinjer reaction, subbed and watched all of them, great reactions, Greg! Thank you 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 beautiful 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 wakeup alarm for a couple years and I still love it more every time I hear it). TLDR: skip to the last paragraph 😂 Sorry for the very 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 "that was more unexpected than my first child" 🤣 I love the story of Tatiana getting interested in learning to growl. In her own words, "I was inspired by Otep (Shamaya). When I was 15, my friend showed me a record of House of Secrets. I was like, ‘That dude - his voice is so powerful'. And he said, ‘Oh come on Tatiana, that’s actually a woman!’ I was like, ‘What?’ She blew my mind. That was the time, the moment when I realized I wanted to shock people just like her. I just had the feeling or the intuition, like an extra sense that this is what I’m made to do.” Three of the four current members had essentially no professional musical training when they joined Jinjer, the exception is Vlad the drummer who studied classical piano. They've been a tour heavy band, on the road almost nonstop from 2013 to 2020 and still touring again now since the covid shutdowns, hard work that has made them fantastic live and they make it look effortless. 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 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 newest album Wallflowers, videos are out for Vortex, Mediator, Wallflower, Disclosure!, and Call Me A Symbol. 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 a lot of riffs and has written lyrics for a few Jinjer songs. The band (all members have been Ukrainian, with Russian their first language) started in eastern Ukraine in 2009 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 after the third drummer got partially paralyzed from a tragic spine injury and the fourth drummer couldn't keep up with Jinjer's touring schedule) and it's been a group of four since 2015 (though they've considered 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 former Jinjer guitarist (and one of the founders of Jinjer) turned actor, Dmitry Oksen, on guitar in older Jinjer videos, and acting as an interrogator in one of their newer videos, Disclosure! One of the things I love most about Jinjer is the messages in Tatiana's lyrics and the way she combines her beautiful 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 (as you saw), the anger at people being narrow minded in Teacher Teacher (as you saw) and Judgment & Punishment (as you saw), the struggles with mental health in Pit Of Consciousness, Vortex, Wallflower and Perennial (as you saw), 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, Dip A Sail and Bad Water. Other favorites of mine are I Speak Astronomy (as you saw), Retrospection, Words of Wisdom, Just Another (as you saw in this one), Captain Clock, Scissors, Exposed As A Liar, I Want It I'll Get It, A Plus Or A Minus, When Two Empires Collide, lainnereP, Prologue and Beggar's Dance (those last two are short album bookends that might do well together in one reaction). 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 Who Is Gonna Be The One (Napalm official live), Perennial (official video as a comparison review if you want to since you already saw the awesome live at Wacken performance, both versions are must-see), Judgement & Punishment (official video if you want to since you already saw Tatiana's killer 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). Note that because Jinjer has so many great official videos and so many astounding live performance videos, no Jinjer fan will ever mind if you react to a second video (or do a double reaction) for a Jinjer song you've already heard, so whichever songs you choose, whatever pace you like: a (belated) welcome to the Jinjer army Greg! Enjoy! ❤🖤🤘

[@travis.h.music.111]

Yeah, these guys are legit, I went to see them live two times this year and they were very memorable concerts. They even more amazing in person, she absolutely kills it live too. I’m talking her screams gave me goosebumps. So much energy it feels like she dumps out kind of. Amazing. They don’t miss a beat man. You should check out mediator.

[@pinkierural]

Yeah, i agree they're never repetitive. Outlander Words of Wisdom Call me a symbol Vortex

[@narjiicday-burns6944]

Jinjer is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽😈❤️❤️

[@neilpatrickhairless]

On your point about Tatiana being built for this, it may actually be this way literally. It's thought that she has an Olympic swimmer's lung capacity despite being a smoker, and the shape of her mouth/teeth may facilitate a higher vocal range than the average person.

[@jamhousestudio362]

There's only one person that can do it like Totie's and that Totie's!! LOL's 😆👈

[@Slint1701]

Looking for a good Jinjer song to react to? Vortex. It is one of their newer songs and Tatiana definitely will not let you down. On The Top is a good one too.

[@julieszymanski6057]

Check out Otep...fists fall, ghost flower..confrontation..

[@markbelcher2121]

[@adamperry3037]
