Her name is Tatiana Smailyuk, and that is all her. They are from Donetsk in eastern Ukraine. This live session was done to showcase their new (at the time) drummer Vlad. He, Roman on guitar and Eugene on bass are all awesome musicians in their own right. They are touring again, as the guys were recently allowed to leave Ukraine. She can do it live too. Check out Perennial live at Wacken 2019 and you'll see. Other songs to try , Teacher Teacher, Home Back, Vortex, Judgement and Punishment, and I Speak Astronomy.
So glad I came here to watch this reaction because i was able to read this comment. Didn't realize they were allowed to leave Ukraine, I knew the guys had been there since the beginning of everything with Russia. Glad to hear they were able to safely make it out. Got to see them live in December in New Orleans they are just as good if not better live. Amazingly talented band.
@@strwbrryswisher420 They were allowed to do so shortly before Copenhell, where I got to listen to them again. Perfect timing, all things considered :D
@Vlogging With Greg, I agree with Chris's list. I would suggest Perrenial/Wacken, Teacher Teacher (official Live Melbourne vid), Judgement and Punishment (official vid, followed by 1 take vocal vid), add in Who is Gonna Be the One (Live), I Speak Astronomy, Then Home Back (It is incredibly fortelling...), Then Vortex from the latest album. After that, you can dig back for No Hoard of Value, *Sit, Stay, Roll Over*, Bad Water (NO Scream Growl), Scissors, Ape, Exposed as a Liar, Captain Clock, Retrospection, and many more... They just don't know how to not kick ass...
My Mom always sounded like that to me when she got angry. Probably not to other people, but to me that's what it sounded like. First time I watched this, I reflexively covered my head and tried to dodge a slipper that wasn't there.
A great explanation of Tatiana's technique is given by The Fairy Voice Mother in her reaction to Pisces. Perennial live at Wacken or Judgement & Punishment one take next. Teacher Teacher official is another you'll have to see too. Also, their song Home Back is about their hometown in eastern Ukraine being caught in the 2014 war. Subbed. Cheers!
Welcome to Jinjer. The band is amazing and Tatiana is one of the best frontwomen in the business today. I recommend you react to "Teacher, Teacher" (OMV) next.
She tends to use the harsh vocals to convey anger or pain. You really see it in a song like Teacher Teacher. Btw the intro to Teacher Teacher has a bit of a hip hop vibe.
I love the reactions..... I had it when I was blessed with listening for the first time.. This band is so Fierce. Nothing bad. All Rock . All beautiful. Loving Jinjer !! ... now listen to Aroura. Polar opposites or not... both amazing
The first time reactors hear Tati go beast mode...never gets old. Great reaction. Liked and sub'd. I would recommend Perennial live at Wacken 2019 as a follow-up as they may be even better live. More Jinjer please and thank you.
Jinjer are for me the Best new metal band in the last 20 years.I would like to see Tatiana and Ez Mil in a song.Nice reaction. Outlander is one off my favorite songs
and the jinjer gauntlet begins. perrenial live at Wacken is necessary to see she truly is that good live. vortex mediator and sit stay rollover are great ones too
Hey bro, I was glad to see you responding to this video and I loved your response. I am quite a bit older than you and I have played the guitar for over 50 years and at my age I am a serious Metal fan. I know it’s different but if you envision using the voice to not only sing or rap but to be used as a literal tool to express not just soft emotions but rage through “harsh vocals“ then you begin to understand a different style of music that is Jinjer. Pay attention to their odd time signatures that they intentionally make it so that you can’t follow the beat because it evokes conflict in the very form of this music. To slowly get into them I would next check out teacher teacher. Everything of theirs is incredible.
lol its funny you said that,before i discovered jinjer 3 years ago all i could listen to was Tool because everything else didnt satisfy,now all i can listen too is jinjer for the most part...
So now what you want to do is check out their song called teacher teacher just letting you know that there's some cool grooves in it and there's more of her special singing talent
Jinjervitis strikes again!!! 😬...huge rabbit hole...Perrenial (live at Wakken)...Teacher Teacher!...who is Gonna Be the One (live)...Judgement and Punishement (Tati's one take video)...just to start with 👊🤯😬
Yooooooooo. How effortlessly she does that shit, notice there's no strain in her neck, she's not turning red. That is straight up crazy talent. I was 💯 not expecting for Phil Anselmo to come out of her mouth.
Tatiana used to be a teacher - imagine being the class clown in her class!!? Pisces - 2 fish, 2 personalities - my late partner was Pisces and bi-polar - totally fits!
Tatiana uses the same vocal techniques as anyone, male of female to produce those harsh vocals. But above her great vocals, which I accept some people can’t appreciate, the band is phenomenal
Welcome to JINJER!! Please continue on with your JINJER journey. Try (PERENNIAL)live in wacken 2019 & (WHO IS GOING TO BE THE ONE) live. Also there is (RETROSPECTION) official video & (CAPTAIN CLOCK) live at resurrection fest. Maybe even do some old school stuff like (OUTLANDER) official video & (SCISSORS) official video. When your done with these videos then your ready for (THE PROPHECY) official video. THANK YOU!! ENJOY!!!
🧚♀️ Thanks Greg!! That was fun. 😁 I know it's not for everyone, but I really enjoyed your reaction. I absolutely love your willingness to try new things. Your personality is amazing. That's going to take you far on here. Next suggestion is Geoff Castellucci singing "Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold". He's the bass singer from VoicePlay, so you already kind of know him already. 😁💙
There is deliberately 2 seperate voices in this, the sweet and the angry... just as with a Pisces there are 2 side's to the person, or in the horoscope picture 2 fish meeting end to end. Tati is a Pisces and it's a very autobiographical song. Pure art, nothing more nothing less.
Yes she does this in all her songs lol. You gotta react to her doing this live in concert! A few recommendations: Perennial live in Wacken, Who's Gonna Be The One live, Pisces live in Wacken. You'll see that it's real lol.
Jinjer is a mixture of melodic death, progressive and everything that others in the studio have forgotten ;-) There are more women like Tatjana in Melodic Death: ARCH ENEMY - Handshake With Hell (OFFICIAL VIDEO) RAGE OF LIGHT - Lead the Riot (OFFICIAL VIDEO) THE AGONIST - Feast On The Living (Official Video) | Napalm Records FunFact: Floor from Nightwish can do that too, with their second band: ReVamp - Disdain (Live)
My simple take regarding her "Satanic" voice, Greg: If you were a selfless fish (Pisces) who wanted to see the world but was a bit skittish, and then got into the nets and was hooked by handsome butchers who proceed to rip away your scales and entrails (emeralds)... you'd growl too! So you see, sometimes the lyrics call for extreme vocals in a song. Tatiana (who's not singing as someone possessed, so you can toss the garlic back into the spaghetti sauce) wrote an incredible story and sang about it the way it deserved to be sung... as with most of her songs. Some vocalist just keep singing in their nice and charming voice even when the lyrics call out desperation. Not so with Tati. Her extreme expression - a rare ability - adds so much more to a song... especially if you follow the music with the lyrics and how the beautiful cacophony tells the story.
Yep, that's real. You know it by watching her confidence and strut / body language. But, the music is excellent, so it's not just twisty-head angel / demon shock-value barbie-doll singer. Great performance, great vocals, because they fit into the song's structure, it's not just a 'flourish' of showing off.
I'm usually here for the bars , but Glad your checking out Jinjer. Once you get past the shock look into the lyrics. I know you'll appreciate them. Maybe try Jinjer perennial live at wacken 2019. Or their OMV Teacher Teacher
Just watched my guy go from “I need more”, to “SOMEBODY CALL AN EXORCIST!” 😂 But seriously though, I love watching your reactions man. Always entertaining and super genuine. That’s rare nowadays and it definitely doesn’t go unnoticed or unappreciated!
Great reaction. If you decide to do any more songs from them, i would recommend their live performances over their music videos. Perennial live at wacken 2019 is a good one.
Yeah the switch is shocking. That's the point I guess! The thing is she's got such a great voice. Think she could sing just about anything. The musicians are all individually brilliant as well. Fun to see everyone else react the way I did. Enjoy.
LOL. You did well. I’ve seen reactors end up in a fetal position-which is pretty much my first reaction as well. Tatiana, last I heard, was in the US with her husband. The men are home in Ukraine fighting Russia, so keep them in your thoughts. They’re selling merch to fund the effort.
The band recently posted this🙏🏼 We are very honored to announce that together with the help of the Ukrainian Ministry Of Culture, that we have successfully been granted permission to travel abroad as ambassadors of our country to raise funds and awareness about the war raging back home. This is a huge honor for us as a band and as citizens. We will do our part to make sure that this war stops as soon as possible!
She reminds me of past relationships. You get the intrigue, the courting, the sex appeal, the argument and the divorce all in a few minutes. Please don't stop!
I recommend these bands with female vocalists who are very extreme like: ETHS (France), Nervosa (Brazil), Crypta (Brasil), Arch Enemy, The Agonist, Once Human, Thorr's Hammer, Asagraum, Astarte...
I can't remember if I posted this on one of your other Jinjer videos or not, so I'll put it here to be sure. The way she "Screams" is a technique where she uses what is known as false vocal chords that are actually used by the body to help prevent water from going into the lungs. The hardest part to learning this technique is actually finding your false vocal chords to use in the first place, then you can't force them when you scream, if you do so; you'll seriously injure yourself. You have to let it flow smoothly. That is how she can switch between "clean singing" and "screaming". Also, she hasn't had any formal training of any kind. Amazing...
When people thinks this is fake or something around that line, I always use this comment: If male singer can do opera/high pich vocals, then why cant female do the opposite?. Of Course female can learn to growl, but it is usually harder for female to get good at it as Tatiana.
Bruh was shook after that 01:10 changeover! It gets us all! 😂❤😊🤯 (the changeover in the actual music video is at 01:10, not in the guys reaction video)
I'm fuggin dying the level of confusion on your face is hilarious!!!😂😂😂 Was waiting for you to throw out the "Somethin wrong with yall white people" kind of comment I know it was flashing in your head!!!🤣🤣🤣
Two other good songs are 'Perennial (live at Wacken)' and ' I Speak Astronomy'. Also you should check out her friends group too. I suggest 'Orphan Soul' by Infected Rain
