IRISH Reaction To UKRANIAN Band: Jinjer - Home Back | Learning About Ukraine's History! 

Leave a like on this video for more 🐶 cameos🤷🏼‍♂️

Good analysis. I totally agree with the connection to Zombie. There are lots of classic anti-war songs like War Pigs, One, and Rooster, but few written by civilians caught in the middle, and every war is a disaster for the civilians caught in the crossfire.

I think the first half of the song presents the view of an innocent child who is trying to interpret what is happening when first hears the soldier boots, or sees the flames from the rockets, and thinks that maybe it's an angel or an unicorn, or something from child stories, only for his/her imagined world to be crushed in the most brutal of ways and slowly realize through the parent's explanation that this is not a fairytale, it is war. Then the second part, with the jazz section, it seems to me to represent the parent's perspective who are trying to make life normal for their children and are quite literally going mad in hopelessness realizing they cannot provide one of the most basic necessities: shelter and safety for their children. The last part could be anyone's perspective, my guess it is from the point of view of Jinjer members: they literally just want peace, liberty, they want their home back. This is my interpretation of the lyrics anyway, it might be completely wrong.

The latest Jinjer album is so good.

You're still missing Pit of Consciousness, the official video, the live in Kiev and the Alive in Melbourne one from the full show (they have timestamps, but I would also skip back a couple seconds) are all excellent choices.

Angel explanation was HUGE!!!!

I've seen some of your stuff before, but the fact you knew about the AC-130 "Angel of Death" flare drop earned you a sub and a like from me on this one. As someone that has jumped out of a bunch of C-130's I am glad someone actually mentioned that finally!

Thank you for the angel of death lesson

Youre the first person I've seen that knew the ac 130 signature flare cloud...surprised at your age that you're so very well informed...well done young sir 👍

My first Jinjer song. I’m a Tool army member but you brought me here and this song is bad ass with a crazy good singer.

Such a great song! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 it has quickly become my favorite Jinjer song, the grooves and Tatiana’s beautiful blues/jazz vocals and the monster growls! 👌🏻 And really great visuals as well, it fits the message. An extra plus for you for describing the bomber plane. I had no idea. Happy New Year! ...good riddance right?! 🙄😅

Finally someone that knew about the angel of death ‼️🤙🏽

Man, great reaction! Props for the angel of death explanation and video, really good and educational. Hell of a banger this one, you gotta do more of this amazingly talented band on the channel and more often, they deserve it. Try top favourite from last album "Retrospection" official, a superb song about their roots that ties with this one. Peace.

Well done! A powerful song with a powerful message, and you know it comes from the heart of every member in the band.

Great reaction! And very good that you did dig in to the politics of the song. 👏👍🤟

Thanks for doin the research. This is a serious personal song for them

A brutal metal song which just happens to feature an exquisite jazz breakdown lodged right in the middle of it. And it makes sense! Lol. The genius of how they make this work makes me laugh with wonder every time I hear it.

Band keeps impressing me as usual. Good to see your videos again after a while. Continue doing the great work as usual

I´ve seen some reactions of Jinjer.. But you´re the first one, who mentioned the Lyrics. Thanx for that! btw... everyone of the Band is awesome talentend, far beyond from most metal bands nowadays. For me there are only two other recommendations: Wintersun and Tool...

7:54 - I noticed that at first too but then I realised she pronunced it that way to rhyme with hole. ; )

Oh shit dude I was waiting For this lol

Since you mentioned the grooviness and tone of Jinjer and also have checked out a lot of Tesseract: Give Monuments a listen. I'd watch the playthroughs cuz they're just fun to watch. Either Origin of our Escape (bit heavier) or Atlas (more of a fun chorus). Basically, Fellsilent are credited as one of the first bands in the djent scene (wouldn't personally call Meshuggah djent and they're certainly not part of the scene) and when (or before) they split up, their members founded Tesseract and Monuments.

This is turning into of my favorite Jinjer songs that jazz type switch up is so good

They have 4 songs completed for the new album that Tatiana has to write the lyrics for. Just knowing that tells me that 2021 has to be a better year.

JINJER are from Eastern Ukraine, Donetsk region. Their native town was and still remains occupied by pro-russin forces. And all the band members became war refugees and had to move to a different region (at first Lviv in Western Ukraine and later on Kyiv - the capital). This is a very personal song for them.

AC-130, also known as Spooky or puff the magic dragon, coincidentally the actual aircraft shown in the video is an F/A-18 super hornet.

For 30 seconds she turns into Gwen Steffani. Dope!

Great to see you do another Jinjer track!! Great reaction as always! This is an awesome song of course, and it is a universal message. Glad you did this one! (...and here's some additional military bits - most US planes (and probably other countries), like the C-130 or an F-18 Hornet (which is actually what's in this video), can be equipped to fire flares and chafe for evasion. I was a USMC CH-53 crew chief and we had the F/C dispenser selector sw and fire button mounted right on our door panel, in addition to the pilots also having the same fire control. When fired by any aircraft, the wake will be similar to the one in the video. What looks like is happening in this vid, is the pursuing aircraft (F-18) is flying through the wake of the aircraft that dispensed the flares. But I don't think the videographer was being partial to any particular aircraft. JMO...)

Jinjer - The Prophecy, the one you need it

love from UKR.

I know the lyrics but I never thought about the angel reference comparing to the 'angel of death'. Thank you for that lol

Дякую за працю 🙏🇺🇦Вподобайка

Hey Drew, I dont see that you’ve reacted to any of the new Jinjer album. Please check out Vortex as well as Wallflower

Great reaction!

Thanks for reaction! Irish people could easiely undestand situation in UA, `cause huge russian/soviet empire wants to smash down our country which was a main colony. It's exact comparison with Zombie!

This song hits so freaking hard. I've never even been in a bad situation but it still makes me cry. This might be my favorite anti war song ever, even over war pigs.

My friend from Donetsk will never return to his home, artillery strike destroyed it.

Good understanding.

Oooofff not gonna lie I love your intro

Maybe this was covered already but!! They're from near Donetsk, Ukraine. This is an area near the Black Sea. Russia decided it wanted to annex Crimea and so they just moved their army into it, so there has been some armed combat between the forces. As you may have heard, Russia basically took over, so the place where they lived is basically bombed out. So, they literally want their home back. As an American, I'm deeply ashamed at our inaction.

Rivers of Nihil The Silent Life

That was an F/A-18 C Hornet in the Jinjer video.

Thank's from Ukraine)

React to "The Mirror" by Dream Theater

Hey Drew, big fan of your metal reactions 💞 Would bring a tear to my eye to see your reaction to this in a future video: OBSCURA | "Akroasis" (Official Music Video) [ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wohGrLg6OCM.html ]

The war in Ukraine is still going on, we hope to return our territories (parts of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions and Crimea), moreover, we are taking maximum efforts for this. Perhaps your and our stories are somewhat similar ...

More PERIPHERY

FLOURISH BY THE CONTORTIONIST

Hey could you please react to Polyphia - G.O.A.T 🙏 or Vitalism - Clairvoyance? Happy New Year 🎊

Pretty sure Russia didn't use C130's against Ukraine lol they were MIGS.

Drew, in fact, in Ukraine, we have a double attitude towards the group "Jinjer". We understand that they are stars of metal and rock music in the world, but their statements about the occupation of our territory by Russia in social networks (which they later deleted) are not very encouraging for the majority Ukrainians, and this is putting it mildly, and even more so, the statements of Tatiana and other members of the group in defense of Russia are simply offensive, especially when their hometown is now controlled by Russia and they had to move to the capital of Ukraine - Kyiv.
