Me too - I hated harsh metal vocals until Jinjer - I called them "cookie monster vocals". But Tatiana is something else entirely. A true master of her craft.
Theres a slight difference between female and male screams, lot of people find female vocals nicer. Makes jinjer and spiritbox a great transition band to their male counterparts
Awesome! a 3-fer!!! Tatiana always steals the show, but the band is just so tight and off-beat in their playing - it really is a sound unto itself. I just adore seeing the joy and confusion on peoples faces when they encounter Jinjer. They have some really hard, agressive songs and some more mellow songs as well. The ultimate experience is seeing them live - at least in a video. Want another 3? Check out; Perennial - Live at Whacken Who Is Going To Be The One - Live OMV Pit Of Consciousness - Live in Kiev Please remember to pray for the outstanding people of Ukraine 🙏
I didn't notice the length of the clip, so the 3-fer was a great surprise! The song Home Back is their response to war in their homeland. Great reaction!
Shes almost fully opening her vocal chords very low and using her diaphram to power that sound. Shes actually barely using her vocal chords and thus doesn't strain them to sing whens she's growling. Watch her neck when shes screaming. You don't see the veins distending like when you see most vocalists straining their vocal chords to scream. She has incredible talent and technique. Also the while she is the most upfront aspect of the band, the other members are ALL breath taking musicians in technique and writing.
Her vocals on vortex were above and beyond! She's always been stunning, but she found another level! Teacher teacher is still my favorite Jinjer track though.
The videos "Perennial Live at Wacken Open Air" and "Captain Clock live at Resurrection Fest" are both really good live performances from her. Basically both are five minutes of Tatiana flavored girl power. Another good one is her Judgement and Punishment one take vocal. Pit of Consciousness live is good too. There are a lot more but those are a good start.
One of the best tatiana live performances is of "I speak astronomy" at Summer Breeze. She can occasionally be pitchy in the clean vocals, but that was on point and very sultry.
I must say, I love your format of doing more than one song in one video. Definitely do more Jinjer. A couple of my favorites are “I Speak Astronomy” and “Outlander”. ❤️🇺🇦СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ!🇺🇦❤️
Yeah, Jinjer plays around with timings a lot. Took me a bit to get used to that, at least in their more complex songs, but now I feel I'm addicted to it. Standard timings and sound structures feel just boring now. First world music problems I guess. I'll drop my usual recommendations, excluding the ones you did, if you want to check out more. Official video suggestions: I Speak Astronomy Cloud Factory Retrospection Wallflower No Hoard Of Value (official lyric video) Home Back Mediator Sit Stay Roll Over Live suggestions: Perennial live at Wacken Who Is Gonna Be The One live On The Top live in Kiev Pit Of Consciousness live in Kiev Judgement & Punishment (one take vocal performance) Captain Clock live at Resurrection Fest
oh lord another musical taste flex. People flock where the money is. Think for a second, would you rather be a 5mil subcriber youtube streetball hustler or and NBA legend Michael Jordan?
That's funny you say "first world music" problems. I'm pretty sure 1st world was USA, 2nd world was USSR and any country not affiliated to either was 3rd world. They are from the Ukraine, which as we've all learned is probably the most prominent 3rd world country, not being a part of NATO, not being a part of Russia. Literally the boundery bewteen the two. So 3rd world Music problems too
Just gonna say as a DIEHARD Jinjer fan that they never put a bad song out. I have my favorites, but I love all of their stuff NOT just because I am biased and all of that, but because they are truly experts at their craft, all four of them. I have said since I first got into Jinjer immediately when I first heard "Pisces", that I would gladly promote this band for free for life and I do & I always will. They will change your life.
You really need to watch the live clips "who is gonna be the one"live and "perennial" live at Wacken, Tatiana rules the stage!! also as a singer you would appreciate Tatiana's one take vocal performance of "judgement and punishment " as well as Courtney LaPlante with SPIRITBOX one take vocal performance of"rule of nines " maybe you could put those two in a video together
See them in their best element Live.A band that sounds as good or better live than studio is pretty rare and the bonus of Tatiana’s stage presence.Who is gonna be the one live Napalm records is an open air daytime performance and Pit of Consciousness live Kiev in 2019 Ukraine home crowd are two of their best
Thank you for your great reaction. Jinjer are a band from the Ukraine, they are: Tatiana on Vocals, Roman on Guitar, Eugene is the Bassist, Vlad is the Drummer. Other tracks to check out by them are: 'Perennial' live at Wacken open air festival 2019, 'Judgement (and Punishment) Tatiana's one-take vocal version, 'Who Is Going To Be The One' live, 'I Speak Astronomy' the official video, this is an older track with their pervious Drummer, Dimitry, he had to leave the band due to a back injury, 'On The Top' and 'Pit Of Consciousness' both live in Kiev. There's another track to check out too, 'Home Back' the official video, this is a protest song about the conflict in their homeland, when Putin annexed the Crimea and the Donesk region of the Ukraine in 2014 where they used to live, they moved to Kiev/Kyiv for safety.
Welcome to Jinjer. Tatiana is a vocal goddess and the band is topshelf. To appreciate how good this band is react to their live performances. I recommend "Perennial" live at Wacken, "Pit of Consciousness" live in Kyiv or my favourite 'Who is going to be the One" (Live, Napalm Records). Currently Tatiana is safe in the US but the rest of the band are in Kyiv either organizing aid or training to defend Ukraine. Great reaction and yes they switch timing a lot. (subbed) 💙💛🌻
Great reactions young lady. You're not a "loser" trying to figure out and react to metal music LOL 😄😄 Jinjer is a phenomenal band, Tatiana gets the most attention because of her incredible vocals, but the guys, Eugene (bass), Roman (guitar), and Vlad (drums) are equally phenomenal, they compliment each other perfectly. I had the pleasure of seeing and meeting Jinjer last October in Los Angeles, the concert was pure 🔥🔥🔥 and they were some of the nicest, down to earth, and humble human beings. It's funny because when I was talking to them, I told them how excited I was to see them perform for the first time, they each told me thank you, and Tati told me, "I'm excited too, and nervous" I told her nervous? why? you've been performing for a long time. She told me that no matter how many times she performs, she always gets nervous before a show, you definitely wouldn't know it when she hits that stage. Hopefully you'll react to more Jinjer, you definitely need to see a live video, I'm going to suggest Perennial live at Wacken open air 2019, I also think you would really like Wallflower (OMV), and I Speak Astronomy (OMV) But then again, every Jinjer song is fantastic, at least in my opinion. Keep up the great reactions, and as always, stay Metal young lady. 😊😊🤘🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶
Hey Jami. Jinjer, always good, nice reaction. Her growling is fantastic, maybe to heavy for me. I 'm a huge fan of Floor Jansen, the singer of the band NIghtwish. For me is Floor Jansen the most versatile female singer in the world. Listen and react to the song Ghost Love Score (Wacken 2013) and you hear why. For a popsinger as you it's a collegetour how to sing. Greetings from The Netherlands
nice to see you branch out of the normal generic music into the realm of the unique, Jinjer is a good start you may also like Nightwishn(start with Ghost Love Score live at Wacken Open Air 2013) , Epica (both are symphonic metal bands), and Babymetal (they are a Jpop metal band with choreography, which has never been done before) watch a couple live shows first before watching The Guide to Babymetal, these are all bands that are better live vs Studio, which again is rare
Jinjer is awesome! They also combine prog metal with reggae and it works ; D Tatiana said her influence at a time were Guano Apes. Check out song Perrenial!
First time here. This was a great change to the reaction format. Please do more Jinjer. I’d highly recommend Home Back, Perennial (live at Waken), Judgement and Punishment. Those three have so much variety and encapsulates so much of what they are capable of as a band.
Holy Cow! 3 x reactions in the first Jinjer listen! That may be a first...kudos! Liked and sub'd. Jinjer literally has no bad/meh songs so...more Jinjer please and thank you!
I've never cared for harsh vocals, male or female, because they didn't sound good or they all pretty much sounded the same to me: just screaming for the sake of screaming without the purpose of fitting the music. Courtney and all the female screamers that existed before are included in that group. Until one day I found Gojira (male singer, Joe Duplantier) and Jinjer. They're the only two bands with harsh vocals I listen to because they're not any of the things I pointed out above: their harsh vocals are melodic, dynamic, they fit the music and above all, they're understadable and pleasant to hear.
Both Tatiana and Courtney are on a league of their own, but let’s face it, both have amazing musicians behind them. Such different styles between Spiritbox and Jinjer but the feelings they provide are similar. They both lead you to this false sense of security and then all of a sudden it’s “release the kraken” mode. Nice reactions and keep them coming, we will be here for the journey.
Ukrainian Strong , Tatiana kicks ass , btw its Pisces the astrological sign of 2 fish , which I think Tatiana is one , not pieces like Reese`s Pieces , in Vortex they got in the Vortex cause they were in the house that got sucked in to it , Teacher Teacher , yes Teachers can be fools too n self proclaimed preachers .
the most amazing thing about this band is how are they not one of the most famous bands in Rock/Heavy Metal playing right now? The talent is undeniable, the music is fresh and they have their own unique sound in a world of processed audio mush, and her frontpersonship performances are truly entertaining at a masterful level. They kill it live, in the studio and they go out of their way to support building their fan base through non traditional means like supporting reaction channels, doing tons of interviews and their tour schedule (when Ukraine isn't being invaded) is jammed packed with dates and venues. It is only a matter of time before they reach the top where they belong in the music world. I love their tracks, Outlander, Ape, & Cloud Factory as being just energy filled gifts to be listened to absorbed and the energy applied as you see fit. Who needs coffee when you have Jinjer? Given your background, I would strongly suggest Beggar's Dance...you won't be disappointed
Thank you for your interest in Jinjer ( Ukrainians )! Jinjer is an absolutely talented band, world-class musicians, great lyrics, likeable people, > and now this Russian war???????????????????????? I have hope for all Ukrainians and their country............ warm greetings from germany
If you're just getting started into the world of Female Metal vocalists you are in for one hell of an amazing journey, some of the finest female vocal talent around is to be found and as Tattiana just proved, it's not all growling.... subscribed on the basis that you will get to Floor Jansen, Simone Simons, Tarja Turunen and the rest of Metal's amazing Female talent 😊
I'm not strictly speaking a Nightwish fan but Ghost Love Score official live (the one with more views, which at Wacken though the title doesn't say so) is one that you really have to hear and see. The other version in Argentina is great too and watching the guitarist fanboying over the new singer's performance is incredibly endearing - but a lot of NW fans will say you did the "wrong" one. :p
@@j.f.fisher5318 Yes please! Please react to Nightwish - Ghost Love Score, you find the video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JYjIlHWBAVo.html And thanks for the reaction Jami! Regards from Sweden Ulf
Hi @@Inferiis . I do get your point but.... both Floor Jansen and Simone Simons have had similar Classical and Operatic training but you'd never not call either of them a "Metal" singer. I know it's because Tarja tends to stick to the operatic approach where as the other two have a much more varied approach to their Metal vocals, but Tarja has been singing in Metal bands for more than a quarter of a century, whatever her approach to say she's not a metal singer..... well ya know, interesting debate😀
I've been into Jinjer and Tatiana for four years and she still gives me goosebumps when I hear her.....just a phenomenal band. Tatiana is the best vocalist I have ever heard live...she's fantastic.
A little backstory: Jinjer are from Donetsk in Ukraine. They only really started blowing up when war in 2014 basically forced them out of their city and they started touring all the time. Tati (the singer) lives in the US now with her husband, but the rest live in Kyiv, and war eventually followed them there. I don't normally like listening to music that switches time signatures a lot, as in this song they're constantly switching between 4/4, 7/8, 6/8, and what I call '8/8' (when you are basically playing mismatched measures of 4/4). However, Jinjer makes it work for me sometimes, and they do seem like wonderful people. And they are bitchin' musicians.
Tatiana Is Sweet...But One Doesn't Want To Get On Her Bad Side...Cause When She Yell At U In That Growling Voice~That Shall Set U Straight...All One Can Say Is: Yes Ma'am!...😀😀
It’s not over till lead singer Femme Fatale Tatiana Shmailyuk gets the WALL OF DEATH!!!! Wait what, the drummer is using “DOUBLE BUTTED STICKS “meaning there is no tip-end of the drum stick, nice!!
One beast when it comes to vocals is Vessel, you should check out his band Sleep Token. They are alternative metal, but do so much genre-mixing, that you can basically find any genre in one of their songs. For a more pop-leaning song I'd recommend "The Love You Want", the typical metal song of them is "The Offering". Heaviest breakdown probably "Higher" (also really beautiful). I'd love if you'd check them out!
Jinjervitis strikes again! 😬 subbed for the Jinjer. Other recomendations are Perrenial (live at Wakken)...Judgement and Punishment (Tati's one take)...Who is Gonna be the One (live) 🔥🔥🔥
Great choices. I would recommend Perennial live at wacken 2019, retrospection official video, and just another official video, for part 2 of you do one. In no particular order.
I have another suggestion for a reaction: Nightwish with Floor Jansen. Maybe you just pick the Wacken 2013 live performance. Then you will see the best female vocalist of our time, no no exaggertions. When Floor starts singing female pop singers like Lady Gaga or Rihanna shut up and have a serious case of broken jaw cause it hit the floor so hard.
Seeing jinjer live in 2019 was absolutely stunning. I drove an hour from college after a full day of work and class. Was dead tired by the end of it but it was easily the best concert I ever attended
#JamiNunes, you're so sweet. I love your content because it's so amazing, and I really enjoy watching you react to different kinds of music. I love you very much, and I've decided to show my support for you because I love watching your reactions.
"Ooh that's a beautiful voice." Haha wait for it. You should check out Nightwish. Try Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013 (live) to start. They have a few of the greatest singers I have ever heard. Won't spoil it if you go in blind, but I recommend checking out a few of their songs, all live.
Yeah Jinjer and Spiritbox makes very different music. I like them both. They both have a lot more to discover, you only scratched the surface here :) I hope you will go down the rabbit hole and follow everyones' recommendations!
You use your False Vocal chords to Growl that's why it sounds nothing like her singing & speaking voice. If your throat hurts when you attempt such sounds then Stop, you're not doing it correctly other wise you'll tear your throat and vocal cords apart. It is a pitchless sound too.
Im subscribing and activating the bell to watch more Jinjer and the other metal bands recommended in comments. Hope you follow this line. I liked a lot ur reaction.
Subbed great having 3 in a row thank you but the only thing I couldn't agree with was having Tatiana do a duet with the other chick spirit box is ok but the women cant scream looks like she's having a stroke!!!
To me, metal music is the pinnacle of music because of the depth of musical talent and blend of extremes that it allows. It's primal, true and gritty but also beautiful at the same time. Those mixed emotions get me everytime.
agree, the closest thing to technical metal is Classical music. Vlad, the drummer is a classically trained pianist, that wrote most of the songs on this album, a lot of people don't realize the complexity in extreme metal and just discard it as screamo angst trash, but in reality, it is the most expressive and technical form of music.
This isn't even all the voices Tatiana can sing better than most mortals. She is from another planet, check out Judgement and Punishment(one take vocal).
Hi Jami, We thought we would say hi to you and introduce ourselves. We are called RUMPUS and we are a kids family band from New Zealand. We are aged 11, 11, 13 & 14. We do covers of classic rock songs. We have got our recording pretty good in the last few videos we did. If you'd like to check out some then the good ones might be: Still got the blues - Gary Moore, Hey you - Pink Floyd, People are strange - the doors, Money for Nothing - dire straits or Enter sandman - Metallica. Still got the blues is our latest and we think pretty good and also Hey you is powerful Pink Floyd... but depends what you like! Check it out :) Thanks
Tatina is vocal perfection is she is changing minds about metal. So much talent in this band and a few others like Twelve Foot Ninja which go largely undiscovered in a sea of mediocrity swelling with talentless pop and rap artists repackaging the same tired, immature crap. This is raw, emotional, powerful, and vulnerable composition, playing skills and vocals that evokes a visceral reaction that transcends sound alone. Thanks for being open minded to the greatness that is Jinjer!!!
Awesome reaction! Teacher teacher is my fav song by far. It really showcases the different elements they are influenced by. If you want to see even more, check out Judgement & Punishment. You get all of that plus some reggae. And there's a cat, so, love. :)
Welcome to Jinjer, they are amazing. They never stop surprising you how great they are. And of course Tatina is a godess. You really need to hear them live. If you want 3 more, try "Perennial" Live at Wacken Open Air 2019, " Pit of Consciousness" live in Kiev, and ""Captain Clock" live at Resurrection Fest. They constantly make metal fans out of non-metal listeners.
I love watching reactions to this song! 🤣 I saw them live back in November. Such an awesome live band! I caught COVID at the show...but it was worth it. 😂😂 Can't wait until they come around again. Prayers to their families and all the people of the Ukraine!!! 💙💛
Wow, 3 songs - you're spoiling us. :) Fun reaction and you are in good company with your enjoyment of Teacher Teacher. Lots more from them and I can't recommend watching them on stage highly enough. Wacken just released a video of their performance of one of their few love songs called I Speak Astronomy that is all nerdy astronomical double meanings, which Tatiana wrote as a call to the universe to find someone she's mentally and spiritually compatible with. Perennial from the same show is also great. Too many more awesome stage show videos to list them. I've seen them twice and was even more impressed by the reality. They are still an up and coming band playing intimate clubs, so if you get a chance to see them (after the war is over and hopefully they all make it through okay) it would be very well worth it. One of their most important, even before the war is Home Back, an anti-war song based on their experiences when their hometown was caught in the 2014 war which forced them to move to Kyiv. It speaks powerfully for the millions of ordinary people caught in every war. Tatiana is in the US with husband Alex Lopez of Suicide Silence, but the guys are in Kyiv doing what they can to raise money to support their nation, and in line for mobilization though without military backgrounds they are at the back of said line. Subbed. Cheers!
Yeah, they're amazing. Before the awful war that is going on in Ukraine right now, they were scheduled to be on the same lineup with Spiritbox at the Aftershock Festival in October, but now that is unfortunately not the case as I am pretty sure they canceled everything in 2022. (Currently they are still listed on the website though.) Hope things can get better soon and they can comfortably get back out there on tour. I saw them last November and it was awesome.
I'm literally cracking 🤣 up! It never gets old when watching 👀 first time reactions, to this brilliant and powerful woman's vocal ablity. 👏 I remember my expressions were similar! 😯 My mouth was wide open and eyes 👀 huge, my mind was a lil blown! 😳
Love the reaction, also like you do multiple songs in one video (very cool) From Ukraine (Jinjer) to Japan (Nemophila) A all female rock/metal band formed Aug 2019 a super group who have blown everyone away who have discovered them. The singer Mayu is similar to Tatiana from Jinjer, bucket loads charisma and stage presence, she also has so much range and control with her voice. You wont find a happier & fun band who play very hard, have tons energy onstage to go with there immense talent. When the drummer (Tamu) took materially leave, the band missed her so much they dedicated the song (Life) to her, on her return (she learned the song prior) they formed a circle and played the song directly to her. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HFnEYhbEAqg.html Good starter songs Life (slower & emotional) Revive MV (powerful lyrics) and a live song Dissension. These ladies also do insanely good cover songs.
Hi Jami, just found your channel today and have been enjoying watching some of your videos. Good stuff! You're absolutely right that the musicians of Jinjer are all incredibly talented, including Tatiana. Her vocal technique really does stand out though - the way she switches between harsh and clean vocals, her breath control, her presence. Pure excellence! For another female-fronted metal band with a very different style from Jinjer and Spiritbox, I highly recommend checking out Babymetal. It's actually perfect that you do three songs per video - one of their first big shows, performed for the lead singer's 16th birthday in 2013 - concluded with three songs that showcase some of their unbelievable range: Headbanger, Akatsuki (Unfinished ver.), and Babymetal Death. I'll leave links to high-quality uploads of each in a reply comment, since links often get parent comments blocked. I hope you can find the time to watch these, as I think they'll be right up your alley. :)

Teacher Teacher is my favorite. It has a great balance of clean vocals and grawls with seamless transitions. They are so skilled. Tatiana is unbelievable. So captivating Each song is very different and cool in its own way. Especially once you understand the meaning behind the lyrics. Suggest Perennial live at Wacken. Her stage presence is amazing. I really hope the band members still in Ukraine are able to remain safe and this unjustified war on their country is over soon. Far too much death and destruction.
Always enjoy seeing reactions to “Pisces.” Just getting into them and had never checked out “Vortex” and didn’t really listen to “Teacher, Teacher” the first time around. Thank you for adding them to my list. Two that I really enjoy are “Bad Water” and “Words of Wisdom.” Very different feels for both but really damn good. Give them a listen.
Jinjer is truly a heavy metal band that isn't afraid to integrate many forms and styles. They are very talented as a whole band with unbelievable timing and skill. Many bands struggle with their ability to even stay on time. These guys are amazing and I hope their future stays strong. Love these guys.
Good catch on the time signature. This band is notorious for toying with time, to the point that Tatiana gets frustrated trying to write lyrics from time to time.
Jinjer definitely mixes a lot of styles..... Very hard to genre tag, though if I was trying, I'd probably label them progressive death metal as the closest
@@kevinfeeney5309 yeah, considering the massive mix of styles progressive absolutely needs that tag.... In a world of multiple tags, even in prog, it's a little hard to pinpoint
The musical talent crammed into Jinjer is Mind ... bLowing ... every time! Nice trio of videos, showcasing the last 5-6 years of their work. This is a rabbit-hole of epic proportions, but do fall in! Watch it all!
They are one of the most musically creative bands on the metal circuit. Hopefully the war in Ukraine will end soon and they can get back together and record and tour once more.
Nice review. I felt pretty much the same way when I first heard Jinjer. There are 2 really awesome all female groups from Japan that should should check out. Lovebites is heavy metal while Band-Maid are more hard rock. They would be 1a and 1b for my favorite groups right now. Anything you find on RU-vid will be great but both groups really shine live.
They just released new one "call me a symbol". It's awesome, too. If you get the chance to see them live, do it. Got to meet them last year. I love them!
NEXT REACT.VOICE Of BACEPROT band rock heavy metal 3 GIRLS HIJABERS FROM 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩 live at transmusicales de Rennes.FRANCE.and live at WACKEN OPEN AIR 2022 .GERMANY.and live at PASIWALI FESTIVAL.23/10/2022.TAIWAN. 👍 AMAZING 👍🤟🤟🤟
Damn going from pisces to vortex is like doing a nice surface swim to a deep dive down the rabit hole. If the contrast value of pisces is well knowned in the react world for good reasons, Vortex is brutal on every levels, visualy, vocaly, musicaly. I believe teacher teacher as a third song is a great choice too, all thoses songs bring a different face of Jinjer and their musical range.
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!!!
