Jinjer - Pit of Consciousness. The official video and the Live in Kiev version are both amazing.

The statement that says it best. "It's just Jinjer doing Jinger things." Nothing else describes them better.

“I Speak Astronomy” is probably the track that they claim themselves, as one of their favorites. “Retrospection” needs a reaction. Maybe u could create a poll?🤷‍♂️

I say go harsh! Sit Stay Roll Over. but also Judgement & Punishment, and Pit of Consciousness ;)

Another superb reaction. This is one of the few channels where I'm constantly going "Why isn't he talking more? He needs to stop and talk!" Couldn't agree more about her stage presence, she is riveting. All the more remarkable since, by all accounts, she's fairly shy and retiring in everyday life.

Next Jinjer songs need to be "Retrospection" or "Punishment and Judgement"

yes for more Jinjer !!!!!

Haste the Day! Saw them at both final Indy concerts. Love those guys.

APE, APE,APE,APE ......Official video. Awesome reactions.....best reactor of music on KZfaq!!!!

You are definitely my favorite Jinjer reactor. You are one of the few people that pays attention to everyone not just Tati. She's so talented everyone locks in on her and stops studying the band and it kinda sucks. I think every Jinjer fan knows how great Tatiana is and appreciates people acknowledging that but we also know just how skilled Roman, Eugene and Vlad are and I appreciate when people see that and let people who may be new to Jinjer know that it's not just Tati that's amazing it's the entire band. Subbed.

4:30 - If my ears don't trick me, I believe Roman is using an octaver effect in this song. That's the high "timbre" your hearing in the guitar tone. He rarely uses modulation effects, in fact the only other song where he uses it is Perennial. He has a stage amp but it's only for stage presence and/or monitoring because all the sound that's coming out of the P.A (or in this case, the sound that we're hearing) comes directly from his Helix pedalboard. 10:40 - Have you noticed the laptop next to Vlad? That where all the pre-recorded noises, extra guitar tracks and vocal harmonies come from. It also provides a click track for him to follow so that all those pre-recorded tracks fall precisely into their places. That speaks volumes about Vlad's ability to play all the intricate drum works and still manage to be the time maestro for the rest of the band. 13:38 - Yup. That bass is one of a kind and was made exclusively to Eugene by an ukrainian bass luthier. Of course, Eugene wanted to have the band's name on the fretboard. I don't know if you noticed but Roman's OD Guitars' baritone also has Jinjer's logo on the 12th fret. ; ) Another nice reaction and anlaysis, as usual. Greetings from Portugal. : )

Eugene is such a beast as a bass player ! already saw them 2 times and they are so good. And your right tati has a huge presence on stage.

Definitely need Judgment and Punishment. That song will go places you never expect.

Vlad is such a lyrical drummer. His phrasing is so unique to him. I think he was the missing piece in Jinjer reaching their potential. All of their previous drummers were very technically proficient, quality musicians. But none of them had the almost virtuoso feel that Vlad does. With time and practice, many musicians can learn to play fast and/or complicated music. But the ones that show an understanding for the subtleties - what not to play, when to use unconventional techniques in a conventional way - are true prodigies. Since adding Vlad to the group, I think that description now applies to everyone in the band.

"Ape" and "No Hoard of Value" would be two great Jinjer songs to react to -- great analysis of their songs so far, for sure!

As a testament to how exceptional Jinjer is, is that prior to hearing "Pisces", there was not a single song with growling (or fry screaming) that I had heard, where I didn't hate the screaming. I still don't like it with most bands, though I tolearate it more. But with Tatjana doing it - I don't know why, but it just sounds so much better than with any other singer I know. I had been exposed to metal before, and some metal I liked a lot (like Nightwish), but Jinjer kinda opened my mind to explore things I hadn't before considered worth exploring.

I fell in love with Jinjer after your reaction for "Pisces," and went and bought their King of Everything album. Tatiana's growls are the best I've ever heard and are now the gold standard by which I judge all other growls. Brutal, intelligible, and rhythmic. Just phenomenal.

Their process is cool. The band composes and records the tracks, and then hands it off to her. She digests it, and writes lyrics...The first time the band hears it is when she is recording vocal tracks.

My God!! She is incredible in this Video!!

Earliest I've ever been! Jinjer is always a great reaction. She's so good at what she does, and the rest of the band is just as good.

Yay! Jinjer reaction! Jinjer - Judgement (& Punishment) | Live in Melbourne 2020 should be the next one!

Thumbs up for Chase

Seeing jinjer live is such an experience. I saw them just before this album dropped. They played Retrospection, which is definitely worth checking out

My favorite Tati's outfit! So dark! So beautiful!

Jinjer is another big one that I got introduced to through YT reactions alongside Nightwish and Epica. Kinda surprised you haven't done Epica yet, I consider them in the Symphonic "powerhouse" trio with Nightwish and Within Temptation. If you do decide to do some Epica, I recommend "Consign to Oblivion - Live at Zenith".

I love these Kiev videos, amazing production and the band sounds amazing. Need more of this concert.

This is for me the best song of their last album. Other great songs are Ape, Sit Stay Roll Over and Captain Clock live at Resurrection Fest 2018. I saw them live once and they are great.

The video for this song is worth watching. Retrospection live from this same concert is awesome, and the official video for it is as well.

I was fortunate enough to see Jinjer live in Atlanta last September, one of the best live bands I've ever had the pleasure of seeing

Yay! This is one of my favorite live clips of them because it’s high quality but obviously not touched up. Really showcases how good they are live.

Well excellent analysis Chase.. I was actually in that gig,, best experience of my Life. Please do a double feature next,, the analysis of Pit of Consciousness the official video, which is awesome and then the live video from this gig in Kiev. All that performance is a masterpiece. You are one of the best music reactors here on YT because of your knowledge and the way you explain what the bands and vocalists do.

Good Job Chase, another insightful reaction. Better than most of the reactors. You can actually give a musicians opinion. Love this song, but I actually love the recorded version better! Next up you should go for Judgement & Punishment, recorded or live, both are good.

Before the coronavirus they were touring all the time, you can actually hear her voice is tired here, and even so, she delivers brutality. I've seen them live only once, I was going to see them a second time but my city got quarantined and I lost the chance to see them again, all I have left are my tickets and my wish to see them live again. Also, check out Jinjer - Pit of Consciousness!

Sir, your video production quality is top notch and your commentary is clear and insightful. Well done. God save the Kangaroos!

The outro to this song is just one of my favorite grooves ever.

Love this song. You need to react to Blessed Be by Spiritbox if you haven’t heard it yet. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Chase great point on Tati’a stage presence. I live the work if all the members of the band. But when I saw them live Tati just drew my attention. No fake bs or interactions that were forced. Here presence alone was just immense.

Next retrospection

Chase Carneson and JINJER? Лайк не глядя :)

THIS is the best reaction channel on KZfaq!

Let`s say you`re not a fanboy because of silly projecting dreams into the idols you fawn over and you are at awe as some simpleton. You. have. reasons: skills, composition, talent, accomplishment. PERIOD. Yeah, they never cease to surprise me! That`s simply great music!

Love your reactions just the way they are Chase!! Your Jinjer and Nightwish man all great. Loved the interview with Brittany Slayes and eagerly anticipate next one that you dropped today is coming soon 💯💥🤘👍

When I saw them last year they had a full backing track, second guitar, keys and voice overdubs. Sounds great and I'm in awe how they handle the timing, very jealous :-)

A reactor that really understands the art of music.. spot on my man!!

Pit of Consciousness Live, same concert.

Great reaction as always Chase. Judgement and Punishment live or the official video. Such a unique song.

She actually doesn't write vocals at least on King Of Everything and everything since but she said in an interview that she improvised vocals on Macro and Eugene added she also improvised on King of Everything as well

Nice one Chase - good, insightful reaction as ever. It's an over-used term these days, but Tati is an 'artist' in the true sense of the word: she's trying to create something new and interesting with every song, and she'll do, or _not_ do, whatever's neccessary to get the right result, rather than pandering to expectations or worrying about having a consistent image. She's also an artist in the literal sense in that she paints and draws too.

The Kiev concert is astounding, everything from that is top notch. In my opinion, the secret to what you call their "brightness" and "springiness" is jazz training.

Hi Chase, I'm not sure if you'll get this comment because you posted this video a couple years ago, but I wanted to let you know that I've watched some of your other Jinjer reaction videos and you always have an intelligent, comprehensive analysis of the songs and great delivery which makes them very watchable and enjoyable. I discovered Jinjer near the end of last year (2021) and even though I was previously not into metal with scream/growl harsh vocals, I became obsessed with them due to their excellent songwriting and musicianship and the incredible vocals of Tatiana, with her ability to transition instantly and seamlessly from her beautiful clean singing voice, with great tone, phrasing and control, into some of the best scream/growl harsh vocals I've heard, female or male. Their cred with me was also boosted by their great stage presence (mostly Tatiana's kick-a$$ performances) and because they are genuinely nice people (plus, it helps that Tatiana is super hot IMO). I've got a ticket to see them live next month at the House of Blues in Boston and I'm psyched! I also recently purchased one of their "We Want Our Home Back" t-shirts and a couple stickers, so I guess I'm a real fan now! 😁

Another great Jinjer reaction! If you haven't seen it do "Pit of Consciousness - live in Kiev" from this same concert. It's a great sonmg!

You like female metal screamers yeah? So, you already knew Tatiana here and Courtney of Spiritbox. How about I suggest you UK's female-fronted death metal band, Venom Prison? Larissa, the vocalist, is a monster. Check out their song Uterine Industrialisation or Self Inflicted Violence. They might not be everyone's cup of tea though, so might just check it out on your own.

She does use background harmonizing tracks. It could be a harmonizing effect to but since they play with a click track it is very likely just a prerecorded backing vocal. Some songs actually have a prerecorded second guitar part as well because a lot of their early (2015 and earlier) songs were written for 2 guitars so if they play any of them they kind of need the other guitar part in there.

She describes her technique as having two different throats that never touch

Gotta react to jinjer outlander

please react to "outlander" and "just another" and "no hoard of value"from Jinjer, they are such amazing songs. Love your videos, best reactions on yt!

That inteo gave me some odd Dir en Grey vibes. I was kind of expecting hearing Kyo coming in with his nazal singing voice that turns into a banshee scream.... might happen. I'm only 5 min into the vid.

Nice reaction. I would recommend "Pit of Conciousness" live in Kiev/Kyiv. It's from the same concert, and it's frickin awesome!!! 🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶

Interesting how you said you'd like to be a flower on the wall in regards to how she lyrically incorporates her poems, their most recent album is called wallflowers 😂❤

I speak Astronomy is a really great one by Jinjer!

Honestly they DO NOT have a bad song. Any song from them is great

I would love to see you react to Judgement & Punishment next

Retrospection, Just Another, Scissors

Eugene's in my top ten bassists, including Marko Hietala, Miho from Lovebites, Steve Harris of Iron Maiden and Misa from Band-Maid. I hoped you were going to do the music video. It has some great (shocking) visuals.

No Hoard of Value if you didnt react to it yet. Lyrically and musically such a good song. On the top is not my favourite as a huge Jinjer fan but still got Jinjer magic of course

"It's just Jinjer doing Jinjer things..." - I like that a lot, actually. lol

For crowd interaction and just selling it to the audience.. the waken 2019 germany festival.. the viral video for perennial.. the song they preformed just before that was pisces.. more melodic.. more raw.. more emotional.. and Tatiana takes us to school on stage presence.. napalm records dropped the offical vid 2 days ago

Great reaction. Now I just want this lockdown to end so Jinjer can reschedule their US shows. I was going to see them in May, but it was all cancelled.

Another great reaction! Always a joy and entertaining to hear your analysis on this great band. Great performance by the guys, absolutely love Eugene´s work on the bass on this one. For another live one I suggest "Pit Of Consciouness" in this same venue. But two of my favorites from the last album really are "Judgement & Punishement" official, an epic mash-up of genres that will make you smile and "Retrospection" and amazing deep meaning song with a very distinctive Eastern European feel to it and a very good official video. Try them and keep up the great vids. As I said, always a joy. Peace.

I like that in this video Tatiana is basically bizarro Stevie Nicks

Jojojo, a nice reaction, Jinjer is realy a piece of art for itself and i am proud that they are done on my checklist from Bands to watch live. keep going with your content! its awesome! So on, a suggestion from my opinion, Watch Rammstein Mein Teil

Hey man, awsome analysis as allways ! While watching this, one thing struck me. The "lack of" guitarsolos in Jinjer's songs. This point hasn't been mentioned by any of the "reactors" on YT. So, this must be meaning that those solos aren't beeing missed or even needed in the songs? I totally love this music, sadly just discovered them 2 months ago! :) Regards from Norway

Dude... I want to see you react to Sit, Stay, Roll Over. Talk about relentless!

Roman has the bands symbol on the neck of his guitars.

Has to be the official video man

Great insights as ever, fantastic performance as well. Would love to see you react to Wintersun from the rehearsal sessions (with Kai the Nightwish drummer as well), Myrkur doing Nattens Barn and Wardruna & Aurora doing Helvegen; otherworldly.

Jinger is super talented.They definitely use an octaver/ sample to double the vocals on melodic parts. A giveaway is Tatiana always fiddles with her IEMs just before those double vocal parts probably to ensure that she is in the correct octave above/below the sample

Yes, there was a harmony track. It sounded awesome. Double-Tat! 😂

If you want to see where Jinjer got their inspiration from, watch Arch Enemy "Nemisis" live in Japan with Angela singing, dude she is a pro as is gets. It will melt your brain I promise you

Tatiana is brutal

The thing that amazes me is she's self taught and she says she doesn't warm up before shows.

Jinjer - Retrospection is one of my favorites and would be cool to hear your thoughts on.

Give "Bad Water" a try, there is a official video and a live version on KZfaq. In this song Tatiana only uses her clean vocals.

The Wise Man’s Fear - Blackroot Forest

Great analysis, next please do Pit of Consciousness live in Kiev (from the same show as this one)

May Jinjer and Chase Carneson thrive. Also check out Vitalism - Pagan Part II ;D

Oh yes, I was extra lucky to get a ticket like a month after this show sold out. It was perfectly insane

the next one is simple, I SPEAK ASTRONOMY!!!!

I'd recommend Captain Clock live... most people recommend the Live at Ressurection Fest version... which is aweome... but I prefer the Live in Madrid version (from the full show vid - 2nd last song of the set).

You have to check out their track "Retrospection" next!!

great you done this song...i prefer the official video cause of qualitiy but thats not a big thing highly discussed song, its a song to join into jinjer and many people who are into jinjer dont like this song as much...for me it is one of my favorite cause its so different and gives different vibes to me i feel great about your explaining the good things about this song hope youre diving more into jinjer, my favorite band for a long time i reccomend "judgement & punishment" cause its musically really special i think and it would be great to hear your oppinion to this one

I love the instrumentals at the end of this song. If you watch it with the official video they are pretty amazing too. This song gives me huge Mudvayne vibes. Eugene might be one of my favorite bassists. Great Reaction!

Chase I think you'd love Uneven Structure - Frost/Hail. So many people sleep on this band but they seem like they are right up your alley. The music video for it is amazing (it was made by their guitarist)! I'd love to hear your thoughts on them.

Love your videos man, keep up the great work! You should react to “Black Blood” by Car Bomb!!

Great vid. It seems like your saturation is a bit on the low side for your camera. Probably wouldn't be a thing to fix in post because the Jinjer video looks fine

Next Jinjer reaction please: "Judgement and Punishment"

Pit of consciousness live Kiev...Ape official video...both great songs, another great song is Outlander live Ukrainian metal act from early day's of the band...

Chase could you please react to infected rain Orphan soul or serendipity. They are my favourite band and I think you would quite like them as you like Jinjer Tati and Lena (infect rain singer) are friends

Hey man. You uderstand this music as Ido. I love your reaction. I am a drummer. Soo...

"I'm new to them and other bands in their genre." There are no other bands in their genre.
