I LOVE how Julia went from "Oh my God, what is this?!?" to "Jinjer is one of my favourite bands!". And I'm happy I was here since the beginning of "metal path".
Vladislav Ulasevich may very well be one of the best drummers for this style of music; his fills - particularly during harsh vocal tracks - border on genius, imo.
@Dragon Ball fans can't read Based on your initial statement I assumed you were a ridiculous metal elitist gatekeeper who wants metal to conform to your extremely limited definition. You did not disappoint.
She told us she was going to do this one alllllllooooooonnnnnnggggggg time ago but hasn't given it to us yet. I believe it was supposed to be the reaction she did with her friend who is the harsh vocal specialist. Why can't we have it? Is it cause we were bad?
3 years ago, I would never listened to Jinjer. I am old school metal. Not a fan of growling. But.... now, I can't stop playing them. So much talent in this band. Mow i listen to Arch Enemy, Hanabie, Spiritbox and Vintersea. Totally digging the female singers. Love your reaction and analysis.
Yup, her transitions from cleans to harsh and vice versa live are also flawless. Vortex was their encore song for their U.S. tour. So thankful I got to see them.
My old band were lucky enough to play with these guys a few years ago when they toured the UK, they're super cool, even let us use some of their gear as one of the other bands got held up in traffic and didn't make it for the show :) so glad they're getting the success they deserve
You're spot on chief, truly some of the most genuine people in the industry...got to work with them in 2019 when they toured with Devildriver and their humility made me reconsider my own attitude and life choices. Gorgeous human beings, crushes me knowing what Eugene Vlad n Roman must be going thru over there...Slava Ukraini. :(
This song is brilliant live. The switches between growls and cleans occur (seemingly) mid syllable at time (at least they did at the San Diego concert last year).
Oh man, am I excited to see this. This album really holds a special place in my heart (so much so I've bought it on vinyl, digital, and cassette lol) so any time I see someone review or react to it, there's a small part of me that just gets a little bit giddy. Wish I could go back and listen to this song for the first time.
After listening to this band over the past few months, I’ve realized that Jinjer is the Metal version of Queen. Like Freddie Mercury, Tatiana is such an amazing vocalist with crazy range to go along with her charisma and stage presence. However, as you listen to them more, the musicianship of Roman, Vlad, and Eugene comes out more and more to where you realize how every member adds to the band as a whole like how Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon did. As for the music itself, I was riding around with someone when “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”(My favorite Queen Song) came on the radio and they asked me who it was. After I told them, their response was that it didn’t sound like Queen to which I asked them”What does Queen sound like?” and listed a number of songs that run across a a spectrum of musical styles. The Jinjer songs I’ve become the biggest fan of fit that model. “Pisces”….”Bad Water”…”Words of Wisdom”….”Teacher, Teacher”….”Sit, Stay, Roll Over”….”Vortex”….”Who’s Gonna Be The One.” While I’m not a fan of “Judgment and Punishment”, it’s such an insanely well done song. While they’re labeled as Metalcore, they are so diverse and, like Queen was able to do a disco song with “Another One Bites The Dust”, it doesn’t sound forced or awkward.
The only reason that they’re labeled as metal core is because metal fans are very particular about labels and this is what they decided to call them. All in all though… you’re on the money. They kind of do what they want and they do a great job of doing whatever they want
@@1gregmoreira I think what’s great with what you said is they can ultimately do anything. The fans will give it a chance and, at the very least, respect what they were going for. Like I said, “Judgment and Punishment” just doesn’t hit with me but all of the parts are really good and show how immensely talented the band is and their diversity. As someone just getting into them, I look forward to checking out more of their stuff and giving the songs I gave a half-assed listen to the first time around a second chance. With my comparison , I just hope they don’t have a song I hate like Queen did with “Body Language.”
Tatiana's growls confuse everyone. Including vocal coaches who teach growling. And even her - she doesn't know what she does, she just does what works. Probably mostly false cord, but maybe some fry sometimes though too? But seriously until she has someone do endoscope video we'll never know for sure except that it sounds awesome. My theory is that she's using false cords but pinching the false cords together so she can control the airflow and do sustained phrases. She sacrifices the pure explosiveness of Angela's growls for more flexibility.
Fry for me is a very problematic term because it includes an extreamly wide range of sounds you can make from super compressed screams to screams that have a tone in it.
The drummer Vlad is classicly trained in piano and since joining in 2017 he composes their songs which really brought them to another level. I think there are videos somewhere of him playing classical piano songs.
Fantastic song!! Another good one from this album is Wallflower! I gotta recommend a band that might interest you, the vocals while harsh are different compared to most. Knocked Loose - Mistakes Like Fractures. Is a good starting point
I love how it starts out with an Alice In Chains vibe then morphs into a modern progressive rock vibe. And the drumming in the beginning is amazing. The whole band is just on point.
Julia, I really missed you reacting to Jinjer. Great job and yes the band is just amazing!!! I am a big fan of Vlad's drum playing!!! Music from Jinger is freakin amazing !!!
Showing Jinjer to innoncent non metalheads is one of my hobbies ^^ Also, another interesting female vocalist band to check out would be The Distillers with 'The Hunger' or 'Drain The Blood', Brody Dale has quite a voice and the analysis of its technical aspect could be interesting !
@@rodmrc5863 in a "quieter"/less "angry" style, but also with the Tim 'Rancid' Armstrong and friends influences, you should check the Interrupters if you don't know them yet :) (and that could also be a nice reaction ^^ such good vibes with this band!)
My personal observation about Jinjer…and the fact that Roman rarely, if ever, plays a traditional guitar solo…I feel like all three…Vlad, Roman and Eugene…are all simultaneously playing lead parts. That’s the magic of this band. LOVE this band so much!
What I love about this song is that the structure fits the title (and the video doubles down on this as well), there is no traditional verse - chorus - bridge structure, instead it's all just one big maelstrom that sucks you in before it collapses upon itself. Brilliant!
Totally see that! It’s a testament to their musicianship and writing ability that they’ve turned what is essentially a long form style song into something SO engaging and catchy that sucks you in all the way to the end.
@@jvoxfox Julia.. you have to do wallflower.. Tatiana's most beautiful feminine singing I have ever heard her do.. and just an awesome progressive song.. you know you want to😋😂😂😂😂.. your head banging is much improved😂😂😂😂
each section is so catchy and i played it on repeat so much i didnt realize there was no repeated parts in this song until i read someone pointing it out!
My theory is that the whole song revolves or spins around that glorious riff in the middle where Roman and Eugene do all those slides. It definitely sucks you in--like a vortex. The whole things just rotates and spins and whirls. So perfect!
I’ve just been getting into Jinjer and Epica after years of loving Nightwish, Evanescence, and Within Temptation, and WOW 😍😍😍 Tatiana’s growls surprised me so much the first time I heard it! She’s awesome! Thanks for another great reaction!!! Since you like a lot of this kind of music Id love to recommend that you check out Within Temptation one day! They’re a pioneer symphonic metal band that started the same year as Nightwish with their own outstanding female vocalist, Sharon den Adel. And unlike most of the lead singers in the genre, Sharon doesn’t have classical training. Her voice is absolutely angelic though, so clear and focused. And even though she sings in her lower register more on recent albums, she can still hit some incredible high notes.
You mentioned Tatiana's switches between cleans and growls. There are two videos in particular that show this : Perennial live at Wacken 2019; and one-take vocal recording of Judgement and Punishment. The latter is great for viewing her throat and jaw, and how she holds her shoulders during her performance because the camera is on her the entire time. The former shows what she can do in front of an audience, and it is a great performance.
With Tatiana safe in the US and the rest of the band in Kyiv either organizing aid or preparing to defend Ukraine through some form of civic response, please react to their song "Home Back" (OMV). The song is beyond poignant at the moment. If you do, you will see harsh vocals used to express the overwhelming message of the song. Thank you for posting the links to the aid organizations. The situation for the people of Ukraine is very harsh and heartbreaking at the moment. (SUBBED) 🌻💙💛
Autumn 2021, i with my sister standing on the balcony one of Moscow club. Jinjer performs for the first time in many years, Tatyana says "You can't even imagine how difficult it was for us to get here" All people stands up, applauds and shouts "THANK YOU, THANK YOU..." Six months later, my country attacks Tanya's country...
Your face at 6:26 says everything. I love that you are really into this, everything about Jinjer is Jinjer. I love Tati but as an older multi instrument musician, the vocal has always been more of an instrument than a word to me, if you know what I mean. Sometimes what they are saying makes no difference to me. Her instrument with the rest of the band is the icing on an unbelievable cake. Btw, that face you made is called stank face, and it happens when you feel the heavy! Great reaction as usual. 😁
I would love your opinion on Home Back! Much like this song, there is a huge amount of vocal contrast and textures to break down. Thank-you once again for revisiting Jinjer and cannot wait for more!!
This was an amazing video, Julia. Jinjer is absolutely a stunning band. Just a heads up, though, the volume levels are a bit all over the place in many parts of the video and the audio from the actual music video seems off at times.
Julia, another great Jinjer reaction. It's been too long. This band never lets you down. And this album is so good. While you're on it you really need to check out the title track "Wallflower". It's a great video and awesome singing by Tatiana. Also you get to see some of the band's inner workings.
Can't wait for this! I fell in love with Jinjer after watching reaction vids at the start of the pandemic. I've since got to see them live in Seattle last October. I hope the guys are safe in Ukraine.
@9:45 They have a professionally recorded live version of this song, from Hellfest last year. I swear besides the slight echoing from having no crowd, it sounds so damn close to her recorded vocals. Especially her cleans.
When you watch 'Judgent and Punishment' one take, you can appreciate her vocal techniques even more. You'll love it. She sounds the same doing the song live at Alcatraz fest in 2021.
Hiiii Julia!!!! WoW The special effects are aaawesome...They are such dedicated group of professionals, each one incredibly good at his craft!!!! The bass and drums do everything for me here...Every time something new comes out I think Tatiana improves her vocal expressions, it shows so well in the harmonies she creates. thanks Julia....waiting for Faouzia again 😍😁
It's really difficult for me to rank Jinjer songs, since they are all so excellent; but this has to be one of the best. I've also had the pleasure of seeing Vortex performed live, and it is incredible.
Rank them precisely is basically impossible but if we go by tiers... tier1 (masterpieces. all of them): - perennial - on the top - teacher teacher - judgment and punishment - vortex - who's gonna be the one - home back - i speak astronomy tier2 (really good): - pisces - ape - noah - retrospection - pit of consciounsness - disclosure - sit stay roll over - captain clock - when two empires collide - words of wisdom tier3 (still good but just not mindblowing): - outlander - call me a symbol - copycat - mediator - scissors - just another - bad water - wallflower - no hoard of value tier4 (decent but those are clearly nothing more than fillers for the albums): - all the others tier5 (just bad): - ...why did i just lost like 15 minutes to do this tier list? idk, i just enjoy ranking stuff and i enjoy jinger.
@@alessandromalvasi7768 I'd mostly agree with that list, except you've got some of my personal tier 1s down in tier 2: Retrospection, Pit of Consciousness, and Sit Stay Roll Over. Also, I'm not perfect on my Jinjer discography, but I can't help but notice that there really isn't much that can be left over for tier 4, lol.
@@99defense retrospection and pit of consciunsness are probably more a tier1,5 than 2 but it's nice that you mostly agree... ...and yeah, in the tier4 there will be like 7-8 songs and i guess the only notable one is "as i boil ice" which they did live in the last tour so i assume it should be good, i've listened to it a few times but nothing clicks for me there....beside that, well, it's not my fault if they are so good that basically everything they do is at least good :)
Absolutely love your work and by work I mean the vocal breakdowns but I f#%@n love when you find stuff you can't help but rock out on you smile like a little kid on Christmas I love how you can physically see music make it's way into someone and become bound to them in almost every way I don't know of anything else that comes as close to magic as music thanks for your hard work absolutely love watching your videos they are amazing 😊
One thing Tatiana has said is that she's been heavily inspired by Gwen Stefani, and if you listen, you can really hear that quality in her clean vocals.
Love this band. She is an amazing vocalist and one of my new pleasures whenever I listen to this band. I’d recommend reacting to audioslave like a stone or maybe the live version of Tool’s pushit on their live album salival. Both those songs are masterpieces in their own way.
Omg… I had NO idea I’d get so much joy out of watching someone ELSE fall in love with Tatiana and this incredible band. I’ve seen other vocal coaches give props even though it’s not really their thing… but you GET it! Welcome aboard!
Another great reaction, Julia, thank you. As you've recently done Courney from Spiritbox one-take vocal, I suggest that you do a reaction to Tatiana's one-take vocal version of 'Judgement (and Punishment)', I promise you won't be disappointed. 🙂
Jinjer is one of the best bands to ever do it, ive been a fan of metal music most of my life since i was 12 or 13 atleast, and Jinjer came out of nowhere 5 or 6 years ago is when i first heard them, and its just grown from there, and then pisces blew up due to youtube reacters, and they deserver it, such great people, i hope this was ends soon so they can get back to making more music and touring. this band is so special, ive seen them 3 times live and they sound just as amazing live as in the studio.
Julia, I recently discovered your channel and love your analysis and reactions to many different types of music. What I get the most enjoyment is seeing people experience new forms of music they might not listen to regularly. Your reactions tell me a few things. 1) You genuinely enjoy all forms of music. 2) You are not afraid of experiencing new music outside of your comfort zone. and 3) We all have a bit of rocker in us (ROCK ON GIRL!!) Keep up the awesome work by sharing your insights with us. I am sure you probably get suggestions all of the time for certain bands/songs. I would like to see another TOOL reaction video from you for the song "The Grudge".
Julia, not sure if someone else has mentioned this, however if they have, I'll reiterate it. Vlad, (the drummer) is also an accomplished classical pianist !! This band is so adept at so many genres. Metal is so diverse and undervalued. People like yourself are helping open up the World to the very best the Human spirit is capable of. Thank you !! 😊😊🤗🤗❤
Can't wait to see them backstage at Louder Than Life in September. VIP tickets for fridays music, Jinjer, In This Moment, Slipknot, and Lamb of God in one day. I'm so gonna die of excitement.
i was lucky enough to see them live back in December, and i can tell you from first-hand experience, Tati sounds Amazing live, cleans and harsh. they all killed it!
I was supposed to see Jinjer for the 3rd time this past weekend (with Slipknot) but they obviously canceled all touring to support efforts in Ukraine. Amazing band, amazing people. Tatiana's vocals are out of this world but the entire band is so tight and talented individually as well. As others have mentioned, single take of judgment and punishment is a must for analysis.
@@EricMcLuen love your icon, I'm waiting for my shirts to arrive. Ya, I saw them last with Suicide Silence - I'm in Canada and our covid regulations meant our venues had to be seated shows and no one could leave their seats. It was quite embarrassing for a metal show. Further, Vlad got covid too and was stuck in the U.S so they played to a drum track. They still rocked it though and I hope they make it back soon. I was excited for them to play knotfest for extra exposure as they deserve a wider audience. Corey from Slipknot paid tribute and said he'll bring them back after hopefully.
@@nickdoesnthaveyoutube missed ordering a.shirt. am not a 3x. I just copied the logo from the merch page after Insaw others had indicated not care for Suicide Silense. First saw them with Sumo Cyco in a place that held 500. Somehow replacing them with a band called Wage War seems odd.
Loving it :) Jinjer is like juxtaposition the band 8:08 Getting past the 'Dunning-kruger point', understanding how much more vast the subject is and how little one actually knows, imo the point where you really start to learn.
Julia! Tatiana is just phenomenal. Anyway, to your subscribers, I just watched Julia interviewing Elizabeth Zharoff on her The Charismatic Voice channel. I LOVED that so much. I love both these reactors. I definitely recommend you all watching that interview.
I love watching these reactions. I truly think that you would greatly enjoy " I Speak Astronomy". Its an amazing song and amazing video. Check it out you wont be disappointed (as if Jinjer could disappoint). As always well done and I look forward to more great content .
Tatiana messaged me the other day on Twitter to tell me I was beautiful! I almost died. She is a goddess, or a tiny demon. I like to think a but of both 🖤
You're aura shines bright during this video. Such a lovely lady. You're analysis is spectacular. Keep it up and keep the metal coming due to its incredible diversity. Amorphis Julia, do a video on Amorphis please
I've just discovered your channel. I love your analysis of Jinjer and Tatiana and love how you enjoy them so much. I don't know if anyone's said in your comments already (I'm not trawling through them lol) but Jinjer have done a live show in Melbourne and that whole concert is on youtube. It's amazing. Also, go check out their song "Who Is Gonna Be The One" but the live version. At the end, they go into a bit of a reggae sound and Tatiana sounds even more amazing. Also "I Speak Astronomy" is another phenomenal song by them (tbh, most of their songs are). Keep up the great videos. Love from nz. Party on 🤘🤘 Side note, something was up with your recording. The sound came through really weird and echoey after you would pause and replay it sometimes and it also started super quiet.
I never really get to listening to Jinjer on Spotify. Whenever I feel like it I want the visuals, MV or live as they are so awesome. And Tatiana is just so cool 😍!
Hey Julia, you are sooo much fun! Great to see you really rocking out to Jinjer, Tatiana is a bit like Floor, a one off cracked the mould. Incidentally have you heard Floor growl? I’ve only recently discovered Nightwish and Jinjer, what a revelation! I’ve been on a massive voyage of discovery, strange choice of listening for a 70 year old but hey, growing old is mandatory, growing up is not………. Edit: just looked and saw you watched Yours is an empty hope…… great reaction to that one 😂
You should also take a look at any song they performed at Melburn. It's a llive recording of the playlist they did there which then they released as an album called "Alive in Melburn". The production on the recording is perfect and you can really hear and feel how locked the band is on live performances. So I would suggest, for your next Jinjer song to first check if you can find it on that album and listen to it as a live performace 😉. Also , I would recomment "Wallflower" from their latest album, it's emotional, beautiful and powerfull, one of their best songs imo. Thank you for your reactions on this band, you are a sweetheart always 🥰
Love this reaction. Jinjer always amazing! Would love for you to react to Howard Jones ex-Killswitch Engage, now “Light the Torch” and “Sion”. Please please please…. Thanks!
Julia, Vlad is classically and jazz trained, so you with your jazz background may be picking up his choices on the kit because there is a LOT of jazz influences in what he does and how he fills.
I must insist that you locate and review the live version. It may be at Wacken...????? It is really, really GOOD!!!!! Tatiana has her shirt tied around her waist. And she/ they are tearing it UP!!!!! This woman is a vocal beast!!!!!! Check it our!!!!!
You've missed this band?! There's a solution, my dear. React to more Jinjer! I love your enthusiasm. The entire Wallflowers album is full of jaw droppers, but the song Home Back, from a previous album, is about the war that started in 2014 and rings true with the current war in Ukraine. Welcome back to the Jinjer Journey and hope to see more of them here! A Ginger doing Jinjer things.
*Yes, it’s true that our native city of Gorlovka with the Jinjer group has been under constant shelling by Ukrainian neo-Nazi bastards since 2014, and the total number of civilians killed by Ukrainian and Western bastards in the Donbass is already approaching 25 thousand people!* ua-cam.com/video/JQJpDM34uEU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Igman
I’ve been waiting for your return to Jinjer. This band has such great cohesion, all the parts seem to flow as one, including Tati’s vocals. You need to react to Jinjer - Wallflower
I like your jinjer reactions. Do more please😅😁🙏 When you want more growling listen to pit of consciousness live in Kiev. For more cleans and extremely good lyrics I would recommend wallflowers😊 And for a crazy song "mediator". Wish you a beautiful day from Austria🇦🇹
Hi Julia! Recently discovered you thanks to PTX Prayer video(loved it btw.) We just watched your video of Disturbed's video of Sound of Silence and would love to see you react to PTX's video of it.
I say the same about the Japanese bands, Nemophila and Hanabie. Try: Revive, Dissension or Hypnosis by Nemophila. Try: We Love Sweets, Reiwa Dating Apps Generation, Envy, or L.C.G. by Hanabie.
I LOVE how Julia went from "Oh my God, what is this?!?" to "Jinjer is one of my favourite bands!". And I'm happy I was here since the beginning of "metal path".
Vladislav Ulasevich may very well be one of the best drummers for this style of music; his fills - particularly during harsh vocal tracks - border on genius, imo.
And his groove is unreal. Especially using the ghost notes on the snare the way he does. Pure magic
The best in the game. Hands down. Same with Eugene
Is this a Jazz style? I can't pick up on it..
Lol.. and he isn't even a drummer.. he is a classically trained pianist.. and he is better on drums than me.. and that's my only instrument 😳😳😳😂🙁🤣
He also writes some of the songs orchestration as well, all around force of nature
More Jinjer from the favorite Ginger.
Tatiana has such a smooth articulated voice, great tone, when singing normally. Then when all hell breaks loose it’s such a surprise . Well done
Jinjer has quickly evolved into their own genre of music. They have transcended ordinary metal or prog metal.

@@jvoxfox Julia.. you have to do wallflower.. Tatiana's most beautiful feminine singing I have ever heard her do.. and just an awesome progressive song.. you know you want to😋😂😂😂😂.. your head banging is much improved😂😂😂😂
each section is so catchy and i played it on repeat so much i didnt realize there was no repeated parts in this song until i read someone pointing it out!
@@koonfoxmusic1472lol same! Whaddyamean there's no chorus? It's right... oh... there's no chorus haha
My theory is that the whole song revolves or spins around that glorious riff in the middle where Roman and Eugene do all those slides. It definitely sucks you in--like a vortex. The whole things just rotates and spins and whirls. So perfect!
As an Aussie to another Aussie thank you for loving JINJER 🔥💯🖤💛❤️🤘🏼😈
Loved your reaction 💙💛
I’ve just been getting into Jinjer and Epica after years of loving Nightwish, Evanescence, and Within Temptation, and WOW 😍😍😍 Tatiana’s growls surprised me so much the first time I heard it! She’s awesome!
Thanks for another great reaction!!! Since you like a lot of this kind of music Id love to recommend that you check out Within Temptation one day! They’re a pioneer symphonic metal band that started the same year as Nightwish with their own outstanding female vocalist, Sharon den Adel. And unlike most of the lead singers in the genre, Sharon doesn’t have classical training. Her voice is absolutely angelic though, so clear and focused. And even though she sings in her lower register more on recent albums, she can still hit some incredible high notes.
You mentioned Tatiana's switches between cleans and growls. There are two videos in particular that show this : Perennial live at Wacken 2019; and one-take vocal recording of Judgement and Punishment. The latter is great for viewing her throat and jaw, and how she holds her shoulders during her performance because the camera is on her the entire time. The former shows what she can do in front of an audience, and it is a great performance.
In this moment would be another great one to check out
Jinjer is my favorite band btw & love your reactions☺️
With Tatiana safe in the US and the rest of the band in Kyiv either organizing aid or preparing to defend Ukraine through some form of civic response, please react to their song "Home Back" (OMV). The song is beyond poignant at the moment. If you do, you will see harsh vocals used to express the overwhelming message of the song. Thank you for posting the links to the aid organizations. The situation for the people of Ukraine is very harsh and heartbreaking at the moment. (SUBBED) 🌻💙💛
That would be great to see. It is an amazingly powerful anti-war song.
Autumn 2021, i with my sister standing on the balcony one of Moscow club. Jinjer performs for the first time in many years, Tatyana says "You can't even imagine how difficult it was for us to get here" All people stands up, applauds and shouts "THANK YOU, THANK YOU..." Six months later, my country attacks Tanya's country...
My favorite reactor reacting to my favorite band ❤ its a good morning
Love hearing Julia talk about music I love by Jinjer. How perfect to end the week :)
a Jinjer party with Julia. would be #$(*%& amazing!
Your face at 6:26 says everything.
I love that you are really into this, everything about Jinjer is Jinjer.
I love Tati but as an older multi instrument musician,
the vocal has always been more of an instrument than a word to me, if you know what I mean.
Sometimes what they are saying makes no difference to me.
Her instrument with the rest of the band is the icing on an unbelievable cake.
Btw, that face you made is called stank face, and it happens when you feel the heavy!
Great reaction as usual. 😁
His snare sound so tight. Love it!
Your smile always makes my day
Always like that you appreciate the guys. They are f@cking amazing.
I love your reaction Julia, Jinjer is the best of the best!
I would love your opinion on Home Back! Much like this song, there is a huge amount of vocal contrast and textures to break down. Thank-you once again for revisiting Jinjer and cannot wait for more!!
This was an amazing video, Julia. Jinjer is absolutely a stunning band. Just a heads up, though, the volume levels are a bit all over the place in many parts of the video and the audio from the actual music video seems off at times.
I had the pleasure to catch them live last Halloween. Yes, she switches just as flawlessly live.
Julia, another great Jinjer reaction. It's been too long. This band never lets you down. And this album is so good. While you're on it you really need to check out the title track "Wallflower". It's a great video and awesome singing by Tatiana. Also you get to see some of the band's inner workings.
Of course I'm just going to watch a Jinjer reaction video... Nice one!
Can't wait for this! I fell in love with Jinjer after watching reaction vids at the start of the pandemic. I've since got to see them live in Seattle last October. I hope the guys are safe in Ukraine.
@9:45 They have a professionally recorded live version of this song, from Hellfest last year. I swear besides the slight echoing from having no crowd, it sounds so damn close to her recorded vocals. Especially her cleans.
When you watch 'Judgent and Punishment' one take, you can appreciate her vocal techniques even more. You'll love it. She sounds the same doing the song live at Alcatraz fest in 2021.
I think she’s already seen it. I could be wrong.
Hiiii Julia!!!! WoW The special effects are aaawesome...They are such dedicated group of professionals, each one incredibly good at his craft!!!! The bass and drums do everything for me here...Every time something new comes out I think Tatiana improves her vocal expressions, it shows so well in the harmonies she creates. thanks Julia....waiting for Faouzia again 😍😁
It's really difficult for me to rank Jinjer songs, since they are all so excellent; but this has to be one of the best.
I've also had the pleasure of seeing Vortex performed live, and it is incredible.
Rank them precisely is basically impossible but if we go by tiers...
tier1 (masterpieces. all of them):
- perennial
- on the top
- teacher teacher
- judgment and punishment
- vortex
- who's gonna be the one
- home back
- i speak astronomy
tier2 (really good):
- pisces
- ape
- noah
- retrospection
- pit of consciounsness
- disclosure
- sit stay roll over
- captain clock
- when two empires collide
- words of wisdom
tier3 (still good but just not mindblowing):
- outlander
- call me a symbol
- copycat
- mediator
- scissors
- just another
- bad water
- wallflower
- no hoard of value
tier4 (decent but those are clearly nothing more than fillers for the albums):
- all the others
tier5 (just bad):
-
...why did i just lost like 15 minutes to do this tier list? idk, i just enjoy ranking stuff and i enjoy jinger.
@@alessandromalvasi7768 I'd mostly agree with that list, except you've got some of my personal tier 1s down in tier 2: Retrospection, Pit of Consciousness, and Sit Stay Roll Over.
Also, I'm not perfect on my Jinjer discography, but I can't help but notice that there really isn't much that can be left over for tier 4, lol.
@@99defense retrospection and pit of consciunsness are probably more a tier1,5 than 2 but it's nice that you mostly agree...
...and yeah, in the tier4 there will be like 7-8 songs and i guess the only notable one is "as i boil ice" which they did live in the last tour so i assume it should be good, i've listened to it a few times but nothing clicks for me there....beside that, well, it's not my fault if they are so good that basically everything they do is at least good :)
4 brilliant musicians, each masters of their craft.
Absolutely love your work and by work I mean the vocal breakdowns but I f#%@n love when you find stuff you can't help but rock out on you smile like a little kid on Christmas I love how you can physically see music make it's way into someone and become bound to them in almost every way I don't know of anything else that comes as close to magic as music thanks for your hard work absolutely love watching your videos they are amazing 😊
🤘🤘 Sweet!!!! Glad to see you back onto some Jinjer!!! 😁❤✌
Yeah Vlad is doing almost a Freestyle Jazz type of groove beat!!! His technique and fills are Freakin Fantastic!!!! 😉
One thing Tatiana has said is that she's been heavily inspired by Gwen Stefani, and if you listen, you can really hear that quality in her clean vocals.
How much have you grown up Julia...
I still remember your first reaction to Pisces 😂😂 (the shock on your face was amazing)
Keep them coming!!
Love this band. She is an amazing vocalist and one of my new pleasures whenever I listen to this band. I’d recommend reacting to audioslave like a stone or maybe the live version of Tool’s pushit on their live album salival. Both those songs are masterpieces in their own way.
Your reaction towards JINJER is most epic .... REALLY LOVE IT ❤
love this song, hope the guys are surviving the daily grind over there
Omg… I had NO idea I’d get so much joy out of watching someone ELSE fall in love with Tatiana and this incredible band. I’ve seen other vocal coaches give props even though it’s not really their thing… but you GET it!
Welcome aboard!
After a hard days work, it’s nice to play music to relax with.
That’s awesome you posted some charities. It’s good to see a lot of people on here doing that to help those displaced.
a lovely ginger reacting to jinjer
It's almost be a year we NEED you to do more JINJER .
Another great reaction, Julia, thank you.
As you've recently done Courney from Spiritbox one-take vocal, I suggest that you do a reaction to Tatiana's one-take vocal version of 'Judgement (and Punishment)', I promise you won't be disappointed. 🙂
Jinjer is one of the best bands to ever do it, ive been a fan of metal music most of my life since i was 12 or 13 atleast, and Jinjer came out of nowhere 5 or 6 years ago is when i first heard them, and its just grown from there, and then pisces blew up due to youtube reacters, and they deserver it, such great people, i hope this was ends soon so they can get back to making more music and touring. this band is so special, ive seen them 3 times live and they sound just as amazing live as in the studio.
my family and I are from Kyiv.
Thanks for the support
Julia, I recently discovered your channel and love your analysis and reactions to many different types of music. What I get the most enjoyment is seeing people experience new forms of music they might not listen to regularly. Your reactions tell me a few things. 1) You genuinely enjoy all forms of music. 2) You are not afraid of experiencing new music outside of your comfort zone. and 3) We all have a bit of rocker in us (ROCK ON GIRL!!)
Keep up the awesome work by sharing your insights with us. I am sure you probably get suggestions all of the time for certain bands/songs. I would like to see another TOOL reaction video from you for the song "The Grudge".
Julia, not sure if someone else has mentioned this, however if they have, I'll reiterate it.
Vlad, (the drummer) is also an accomplished classical pianist !!
This band is so adept at so many genres.
Metal is so diverse and undervalued.
People like yourself are helping open up the World to the very best the Human spirit is capable of.
Thank you !! 😊😊🤗🤗❤
Can't wait to see them backstage at Louder Than Life in September. VIP tickets for fridays music, Jinjer, In This Moment, Slipknot, and Lamb of God in one day. I'm so gonna die of excitement.
Looking forward to this one. The music video is supremely cool, too. Or have you found a live video that I was unaware of?
YEAAAAAH! im so excited for this!
Julia coming through with yet another fantastic band name. Demonic Toilet Bowel? Seriously? That's just gold. ;-)
I Speak Astronomy is a really nice one too. Amazing music, amazing singing.
i was lucky enough to see them live back in December, and i can tell you from first-hand experience, Tati sounds Amazing live, cleans and harsh. they all killed it!
I was supposed to see Jinjer for the 3rd time this past weekend (with Slipknot) but they obviously canceled all touring to support efforts in Ukraine. Amazing band, amazing people. Tatiana's vocals are out of this world but the entire band is so tight and talented individually as well.
As others have mentioned, single take of judgment and punishment is a must for analysis.
Same. Saw them in Chicago and then had tickets for a side show in my town they were doing between Knottfest gigs. And then...
@@EricMcLuen love your icon, I'm waiting for my shirts to arrive. Ya, I saw them last with Suicide Silence - I'm in Canada and our covid regulations meant our venues had to be seated shows and no one could leave their seats. It was quite embarrassing for a metal show. Further, Vlad got covid too and was stuck in the U.S so they played to a drum track. They still rocked it though and I hope they make it back soon. I was excited for them to play knotfest for extra exposure as they deserve a wider audience. Corey from Slipknot paid tribute and said he'll bring them back after hopefully.
@@nickdoesnthaveyoutube missed ordering a.shirt. am not a 3x. I just copied the logo from the merch page after Insaw others had indicated not care for Suicide Silense. First saw them with Sumo Cyco in a place that held 500.
Somehow replacing them with a band called Wage War seems odd.
With the current situation it may also be a good idea to have a look at "Home Back" by Jinjer ... brought me to tears.
🌻This^
It was Jinjer that originally brought me to your channel love and prayers for Jinjer and Ukraine ❤👍👍
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
and soooo cool.!!
Loving it :) Jinjer is like juxtaposition the band
8:08 Getting past the 'Dunning-kruger point', understanding how much more vast the subject is and how little one actually knows, imo the point where you really start to learn.
Julia! Tatiana is just phenomenal.
Anyway, to your subscribers, I just watched Julia interviewing Elizabeth Zharoff on her The Charismatic Voice channel. I LOVED that so much. I love both these reactors. I definitely recommend you all watching that interview.
I love watching these reactions. I truly think that you would greatly enjoy " I Speak Astronomy". Its an amazing song and amazing video. Check it out you wont be disappointed (as if Jinjer could disappoint). As always well done and I look forward to more great content .
Tatiana messaged me the other day on Twitter to tell me I was beautiful! I almost died. She is a goddess, or a tiny demon. I like to think a but of both 🖤
You're aura shines bright during this video. Such a lovely lady. You're analysis is spectacular. Keep it up and keep the metal coming due to its incredible diversity. Amorphis Julia, do a video on Amorphis please
I've just discovered your channel. I love your analysis of Jinjer and Tatiana and love how you enjoy them so much. I don't know if anyone's said in your comments already (I'm not trawling through them lol) but Jinjer have done a live show in Melbourne and that whole concert is on youtube. It's amazing. Also, go check out their song "Who Is Gonna Be The One" but the live version. At the end, they go into a bit of a reggae sound and Tatiana sounds even more amazing. Also "I Speak Astronomy" is another phenomenal song by them (tbh, most of their songs are). Keep up the great videos. Love from nz. Party on 🤘🤘
Side note, something was up with your recording. The sound came through really weird and echoey after you would pause and replay it sometimes and it also started super quiet.
I never really get to listening to Jinjer on Spotify. Whenever I feel like it I want the visuals, MV or live as they are so awesome. And Tatiana is just so cool 😍!
Hey Julia, you are sooo much fun! Great to see you really rocking out to Jinjer, Tatiana is a bit like Floor, a one off cracked the mould. Incidentally have you heard Floor growl? I’ve only recently discovered Nightwish and Jinjer, what a revelation! I’ve been on a massive voyage of discovery, strange choice of listening for a 70 year old but hey, growing old is mandatory, growing up is not……….
Edit: just looked and saw you watched Yours is an empty hope…… great reaction to that one 😂
I would say you love the beginning because it has a jazz feel to it. I am here for how much you love them.
Been waiting a long time for u to react to this one
You should also take a look at any song they performed at Melburn. It's a llive recording of the playlist they did there which then they released as an album called "Alive in Melburn". The production on the recording is perfect and you can really hear and feel how locked the band is on live performances. So I would suggest, for your next Jinjer song to first check if you can find it on that album and listen to it as a live performace 😉. Also , I would recomment "Wallflower" from their latest album, it's emotional, beautiful and powerfull, one of their best songs imo.
Thank you for your reactions on this band, you are a sweetheart always 🥰
Love this reaction. Jinjer always amazing!
Would love for you to react to Howard Jones ex-Killswitch Engage, now “Light the Torch” and “Sion”. Please please please…. Thanks!
Julia, Vlad is classically and jazz trained, so you with your jazz background may be picking up his choices on the kit because there is a LOT of jazz influences in what he does and how he fills.
I must insist that you locate and review the live version. It may be at Wacken...????? It is really, really GOOD!!!!! Tatiana has her shirt tied around her waist. And she/ they are tearing it UP!!!!! This woman is a vocal beast!!!!!! Check it our!!!!!
Julia, you so should react to "I speak astronomy" , the live version may be even better than the studio version
Great reaction of you, I like your funny cuts and I would love seeing your reaction on any Guano Apes song e.g. Lord of the boards
Makes me so happy when Julia reacts to Metal 💯 Respect ✊
You've missed this band?! There's a solution, my dear. React to more Jinjer!
I love your enthusiasm. The entire Wallflowers album is full of jaw droppers, but the song Home Back, from a previous album, is about the war that started in 2014 and rings true with the current war in Ukraine.
Welcome back to the Jinjer Journey and hope to see more of them here! A Ginger doing Jinjer things.
*Yes, it’s true that our native city of Gorlovka with the Jinjer group has been under constant shelling by Ukrainian neo-Nazi bastards since 2014, and the total number of civilians killed by Ukrainian and Western bastards in the Donbass is already approaching 25 thousand people!*
ua-cam.com/video/JQJpDM34uEU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Igman
You've come so far since Pisces 😂😍🔥
Thank you, this is my favorite band!! My other favorite is As I Lay Dying highly recommend!
In the last 20 years , no other band has blown my hair back like Jinjer .
wallflower their new one is like a little movie! almost a ballad
I’ve been waiting for your return to Jinjer. This band has such great cohesion, all the parts seem to flow as one, including Tati’s vocals. You need to react to Jinjer - Wallflower
I like your jinjer reactions. Do more please😅😁🙏
When you want more growling listen to pit of consciousness live in Kiev.
For more cleans and extremely good lyrics I would recommend wallflowers😊
And for a crazy song "mediator".
Wish you a beautiful day from Austria🇦🇹
Hi Julia! Recently discovered you thanks to PTX Prayer video(loved it btw.) We just watched your video of Disturbed's video of Sound of Silence and would love to see you react to PTX's video of it.
I say the same about the Japanese bands, Nemophila and Hanabie.
Try: Revive, Dissension or Hypnosis by Nemophila.
Try: We Love Sweets, Reiwa Dating Apps Generation, Envy, or L.C.G. by Hanabie.
