- Maybe at one point of my musical journey, I would of been considered an Elitist. I just liked what I liked. But as I've gotten older I've realized there's alot of great music out there, and I want to find it! Thank You for bearing with me on the beginning stages of this channel. Feel free to request any song.

• JINJER - Home Back (Of... - เพลง
They're really good live you should watch them perform their song Pit Of Consciousness Live in Kiev 🤘🏼
You got it! I have this feeling I need to keep listening
Pit of Consciousness live Kiev in 2019 Ukraine is 🔥
My wife and I are about to see them August 1st with Disturbed and Breaking Benjamin🤘🔥
This right here!!
That’s how the lyrics end:
Home is not a building
Home is liberty
A place where memories live
In prosperity and peace
I came back home so I want my home back
I came back home so I want my home back
Don′t you leave us homeless!
Don′t you leave us homeless!
Homeless homeless
I am always in awe of the raw emotion of loss this song invokes, war through the eyes of a child, it is a hard song for me to listen to. I still love the song. Jinjer’s been my favorite band for five years every song is different they don’t get boring.
alot of times I go im blind, so I had no idea the context of the song.
Jinjer is from eastern Ukraine and were driven from their home when Russia anexxed significant parts of eastern Ukraine in 2014. This song and video is the band's angry reaction to the actions of Russia and their desire to return home. The lyrics by Tatiana are powerful and heartbreaking. I first discovered Jinjer when I saw the music video for Teacher, Teacher!, which is still my favorite Jinjer song. I will be seeing them live later this month.
oh wow! Thats wild! I spent some time in the Ukraine a few years back. I will check out the other video you said.
I think Teacher, Teacher is the best entry song for Jinjer. I would not call myself a huge Jinjer fan, but they have some really cool songs.
Pisces is still my favorite as far as instrumentals and Tatiana’s range but, Vortex is pretty good too.
@@TheWolffAndTheMelodyit's this exact song you just watched that is about the war. And the teaparty was a real situation: they were having a garden party when the war broke and they had to flee
"why is this party looking so bizarre?
A party? No. This is W.A.R"
Vortex is the best song from their latest album imo, also great visuals in the video
To experience them live, Perennial from Wacken 2019 is a good way to start
Ya, Im goinf to go down the rabbit hole and listen to more
Two GREAT suggestions
This band brought me back to metal after moving away from it for decades. Even got this old guy out to go see them live and they were incredible
Ya, I'm going to listen to more!
Nice! This is one of my favorite Jinjer songs. You won't get many guitar solos from this band but if dig in a bit more, you might notice how complex the compositions are. I think they are great artists. Thanks, brother.
Ya, Im going to listen to more and dive deeper. Much love homie
Welcome to Jinjer! Awesome reaction, I hope you continue down this rabbit hole, Jinjer has a very deep catalog of very different and cool songs!
I'm excited to dive deeper cause there really was great things about this song.
I think it was brave to choose "Home Back" for a first Jinjer reaction. I love the song now, but it took me a few listens to catch everything going on. This isn't unusual for Jinjer though. I remember not really caring for "Mediator" on the first listen because, again there was so much going on. Every listen after I picked up on more and more and love that track now. For early reactions go for what others have suggested, "Teacher, Teacher" (original music video is the best in my opinion) and to see what they can do live, one of my favorites, "Pit of Consciousness" Live in Kiev.
You got it! Appreciate the recommendatioms
Jinjer is a 13+ y.o. band with a quite diverse playlist.
Depending on your preferences there could be different suggestions.
Jinjer's earlier songs are more metalcorish, groovy and "right-in-your-face". They had a second guitarist, guitar was at the front in Jinjer's music that days.
Although they almost never used guitar solos but they have very technical guitar riffs (take a look at Jinjer's guitar playthroughs).
Then one guitarist left the band. And the album after that Jinjer hired current drummer Vlad. He's a classically trained pianist and multi instrumantalist and he became Jinjer's main composer. Drums and bass moved to the front and their music became more proggy and complicated.
Home Back is quite tough track to love it from the first listen. Very compicated time signatures. Somebody counted and it was something like 17/18 at some parts of the song.
I assume you like heavy stuff and as a true metalhead you prefer live performances. So I'd suggest you few heavy Jinjer songs from each of their albums:
- Scissors (OMV with a live footages, I didn't see live with a good sound quality) - one of their earliest songs, very raw and groovy. 2 guitarists.
- Who's Gonna Be The One (live at Atlas) - very groovy, quite simple, with a sudden raggae touch. It's relativily early song but this live is recorded in their current lineup. It was composed for two guitars but then remastered and bass in some sence replaces the second guitar.
- Sit Stay Rollover (live in Melbourne) - very intense and heavy, quite tricky time signatures.
- Teacher, Teacher (live in Melbourne) - quite proggy, with a several very different parts of the song. There's no obviously best Jinjer's song but this song is very popular among the fanbase. It's not so heavy but it shows diversity of the band and of Tatiana's vocal (including clean).
- Pit of Consciousness (live in Kiev) - very heavy, dark, atmospheric, Meshuggah-like song with very low growls.
- Vortex (live at Hellfest) - first single from their last album. The song with the structure "no repeatable parts at all". No verses, no choruses, maybe just a breakdown at the very end. Proggy but still enjoyable.
It was a quite heavy list.
Though Jinjer has a couple of dozens great songs and somebody could suggest you very different list and it would be the great choice too.
Yooo appreciate the suggestions and guidance!
How dare you have your own opinion on the internet 😝 Curiosity brought you here and it will keep you coming back. Welcome to our rabbit hole and enjoy your stay. Good and honest reactions are appreciated, as well as the open mind approach. You will get a ton of suggestions and background info from others. I'm just glad you found us. I will be seeing them for a 4th & 5th time next month in the last 2 years. Keep 'em coming and I look forward to seeing what you think after a few more 🤘😁🤘💙🇺🇦💛
Much love Fam! Ya it can be a bit nerve wracking sharing an opinion on here lol but I gotta be real. Much love and lool forward to more
@@TheWolffAndTheMelodyno hate from us Jinjer folks. They are...complicated. I have this strange, but strong feeling you are going down this rabbit hole, and like most of us, won't come out the same. Some bands change you. This is one of those.
@@davejohnston2197 I'm ready for it!
Love Jinjer!
dude I liked it alot more the 2nd time I watched it
Tatiana is so powerful human being
Normally I’m not so much into screaming vocals, but with Tati it‘s something else. Her’s and Mayu’s from Nemophila I like a lot!
Nemophila in some ways reminds me of Arch Enemy which I love
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody oh, I’ve seen arch enemy 5 weeks ago at Rock im Park Festival here in Germany. I‘m not so much into them, but it was pure headbanging. Stood almost front row 🤘🏼
Was at the festival for the Warning, I’ve already suggested to you
@@stand.and.deliver.5 Helll ya! I got a huge list im working thru! Thanks so much for the love and support bro! Metal On dude!
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody Alissa is a fan and supporting the Warning since their early days. They visited on stage each other at the festival 🫶🏻
by the way Alissa and Tatiana are familiar and hanging out together sometimes.
Roman and Eugene are great guitar/bass players. They don't have to be the center of attention in their songs. Other reviews had made mention that the band give each other space to shine. Vlad the drummer is a pianist that learned to play drum just to be in the band. Tatiana is the princess and they all work together to let her shine, and she shines brightly!
absolutely, I didnt mean anything as an imsult.Just how I felt. Im going to listen to more
Lol jinjer doesn't use needless token guitar solos 90 percent of the time even though Roman is a super talented guitarist....it is not a question of ability but approach.....their approach is usually technical and groovy riffs, interwoven throughout the songs with complex time signature maze, while guiding along the story and the four instruments working together, which includes Tati's voicebox 😂....they can play as hard as the hardest band out or as smooth as bossanova or chilling jazz lounge 😋....all 4 of them are proficient at pulling it all of.
@@davidjames6036 Absolutely
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody you are definitely allowed to feel how you feel...that is your experience and there is nothing wrong with that!! Being someone who grew up in the classic rock age , when I first heard Jinjer i as like..."wait', where is the guitar..the guitar solo??" lol!! I also listen to not only lyrics, but also each musician and IMHO they are all absolutely amazing,; the drummer is also a classical pianist, Eugene plays the 5 string bass and Roman is amazing. I'd love to recommend something that's a bit further back , from 2014, Outlander in the best Ukrainian metal competition. It's an amazing song with some of the different musicians that have circulated through Jinjer, but Eugene and Roman shine in that one!...and Tatiana is just amazing!
🔥‼️MORE JINJER‼️🔥
Ya I got more reactions lined up
Pit of Consciousness live in Kiev.
Pit of consciousness live in kiev
Man I love unpredictable metal 🤌
There are some Jinjer songs where the guitar can sound empty because there is so much going on. I would recommend some older ones like Cloud Factory, Who's Gonna Be the One(live), and Outlander (Faulilure Colour). I feel like they might be more what you're looking for.
I even went back and relistened and liked it alot more. There was just some tones and elements I wasnt used to. I will forsure be listening to more
When I renewed my Spotify Subscription I made sure to create a Jinjer Playlist.
What would art be if everyone had the same taste? Every Jinjer song is different. Generally their music is pretty well divided among Vlad on drums, Roman on guitar, and Eugene on bass, with Roman and Eugene switching off the lead melody. They used to have a second guitarist through late 2014 but didn't replace him and instead split his job between the other three instrumentalists. A concrete example is the difference between the album version vs the Live at Atlas version of Who Is Gonna Be The One which is the only sone from the earlier era the re-composed to work as a 3-piece and is the only one they still play live. The official live of WIGBTO is basically the filmed recording session for the latter version and is one I'd recommend. Definitely one where I especially enjoy the guitar and bass work.
Ya dude, Im gonna to listen to more. I re watched this video and enjoyed more.
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody cool :)
yeah, i feel the same way about the guitar too man, good observation! but tati is tati, she's awesome
that is SO interesting to me that you say guitars felt hollow because it's the exact opposite for me... i thought they were so THICK and just as pure evil as a guitar sound can get, i love that distortion sound roman figured out... it might be my favorite guitar sound out in metal
so, when I went back, I felt a bit different. Its weird how you feel when you first hear something to a 2nd time
I think the hollow feeling was intentional. It's bleak. I usually recommend watching "Retrospection" before "Home Back" - another take on going home.
I would suggest "Pit of Consciousness", live in Kiev (the official video is great, but the live version hits harder) or the official video for "Wallflower".
Or I could list 20 other songs
ya, I didn't know the context of the song which adds a layer to the music and shows how great they are at their music. The 2nd time I listened, I liked the song more.
I agree with everyone else, Teacher,Teacher (OMV) or Pit of Consciousness (Live in Kiev)! But I also agree with ol dude, You did Home Back so ya gotta do Call Me A Symbol (OMV) cuz it's dedicated to the latest war between Ukraine and Russia! And it's heavy as balls too!!! Lol
Call Me a Symbol is pretty heavy and definitely has more guitar and bass in it
Jinjer doesn't make songs you can fully comprehend and appreciate with just one listen. Honestly, most of their songs don't do anything for me at first. Its just too complex and there's so much going on. Most of their albums will need dozens of listens for you to hear everything going on and catch all of the complexities. I had to play their latest album nearly everyday in my truck while driving to work to fully appreciate it. It was released in 2021 and I'm still listening to it a few times a week.
The only other bands that are like that for me are Gojira and Meshuggah. To me, the greatest metal bands to ever exist are Pantera, Gojira, Meshuggah, and Jinjer so I place them in very high regard.
Ya Im gonna listen to more.
Don’t know about the hollow guitars. I think for early listens it is easy to get drawn to Tatiana’s amazing vocals and the complex time signatures and changes. Upon further listens you will find Eugene on bass is a monster bassist and Roman on guitar plays amazingly intricate guitar riffs. Note almost no straight chugging or guitar solos in Jinjer’s music. Even their older material which is more like metalcore is far from formulaic. Also I look daily for reactions to certain bands including Jinjer. I did not see yours on a search, same thing happened on one of your earlier videos, think it was Nemophilia. Just not sure what is up with settings or TH-cam bs. Looking forward to seeing you further explore Jinjer. Note one last thing. Tati is an off the chart lyricist. The songs of Jinjer are quite and meaningful. This adds to their impact as she is a master of tone and range to fit the lyrics.
Yea they had a very different sound I'm not used to. But even when I went back and re listened, I enjoyed it alot more. I'm going to get some other songs under my belt. Much love fam and appreciate the kindness
Seeing them (2nd time) in two weeks.
Im excited to hear more
The group has one guitarist and bassist. Maybe that's why you don't have enough guitars.
They don't have that distorted guitar wall of sound typical for metal bands, it's more often delicate picking and plucking and interplay between drums, bass and guitar.
Not your typical metal, so not everyone's cup of tea, but also a matter of adjusting.
Jinjer has very few songs that'd be both easy and good. Often the best ones open slowly.
Like it took me quite some time to start really appreciating Teacher Teacher.
But I like it that there's also music that's good but challenges the listener.
It's obvious whatever decisions they have in their songs nothing is there by accident. It's all very well thought out. And everyone is really good at their own thing.
Perennial (live at Wacken 2019) is lighter and a bit more typical metal song and definitely worth checking even tho over time the weirder Jinjer works might overshadow it.
I think Pisces is good if you’re looking for technicality. In Vortex, the drummer throws in a lot of awesome ghost notes and that. Perennial shows more from the bass, but overall, I think Pisces is a good showcase for Jinjer. It’s what got them their record deal.
Yea, I have the reaction to that song coming.
The bonkers bossa nova Alice in Wonderland -themed chill passage in this is touched by true #Genius imho. Talk about dropping something *totally* unexpected as your chilled pause in between slabs of angular proggy syncopatedAF aggression.... & yet by the time you get to the end of the song, nothing else could fit into the place of said bokers bossa nova!!
Vocal talents aside, Tatiana doesn't get the respect she's due for creating vocal lines which sit so well with the music the lads have created - they hand her a final demo of the music & she creates from scratch on top of that! o_O
Try "Vortex", their thru-composed first single from the last album. Vlad, their classically-trained-pianist-to-trade drummer, composed ~80% of the music for that last "Wallflowers" album.... & imho it's a *peach* !! Roman's guitar lines start out clean, as does Eugene's bass work, but as we are drawn into the titular vortex thru the song.... well, if you'd like a clear demonstration of what was making you feel off-kilter thru the track, I recommend giving Eugene's bass playthrough vid a watch straight after the OMV - it's a 5-string drop-A #MasterClass, showing *all* the technique, yet always in service to the piece. It's also a blueprint for how a deeply musical bassist can make a single-guitarist heavy band sound HUGE! ;)
Yea, and after I went back and listened again I really saw more that I missed first time. Vocals were insane!!!
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody "Home Back" is for sure one of their more dense & unsettling compositions.... which is very fitting for the subject matter. These guys were directly affected by the fighting around their homes in the Donbas. I wonder what percentage of "the West" understand that tehnically Russian, Russian-speaking, folks in the Donbas were being shelled by the CIA-&-US-StateDept-sponsored Kiev regime for 8yrs to the tune of ~13,000 dead before Russia stepped in? If you check the dates, "Home Back" was released to address that fighting way before the Russian intervention.
But back to the music.... they used to be more straightforward metalcore. Punchy, solid, worthy, metalcore, but after Vlad joined, things got more interesting. More brain-engaging time signatures, more crazy fun syncopation, & if you listen thru the last "Wallflowers" album, there are some great thru-composed pieces with variations on motifs with differing dynamics etc, more like classical composition rather than standard verse-chorus-verse-breakdown-chorus formulae. Hence I'm recommending you give the "Vortex" single a listen! ;)
As a prog-rock & prog-metal kind of guy, I actively avoid pop and country. However, if you want something Country-adjacent that doesn't suck, the Eagles "Desperado" (1973) album is excellent. Lots of goodness, yet Country-Rock. The tracks "Desperado", "Tequila Sunrise", "Doolin-Dalton/Desperado (Reprise)" and "Bitter Creek" are all well worth a listen.
Also, Jinjer has been a revelation for me. They are my favourite metal band and have been for the last three or four years.
Jinjer's Tatiana convinced me that extreme metal vocals don't have to sound like vomiting - so many bands do growling quite badly but there are a few standout talents (including Randy Blythe, Melissa Bonny, Lauren Hart) who seem to have mastered the art. These are people who can growl and enunciate simultaneously. Tatiana is outstanding - "a colossus among metal vocalists" as a music teacher/reactor once put it.
Appreciate the recommendations man. As for Jinjer, ya I just need more. You cant judge a band by one song and I didnt mind this, just not what Im used too.
Check out their other stuff - it's so varied. This one was about the last Russian invasion of their home country Ukraine. After hearing how tight the band is and how calculating they are I believe this one to be purposefully chaotic with nothing to really grab on just as it was when they were stuck in the last war
I also used to be one of those "except country" guys... and I still mainly am. But you have to check out some Orville Peck
No that's fine you like pop music love jinjer
I think it is hollow for a reason..
"Home back
What is this? What is this mess?
What's that noise? Is this a death sentence?
Terrifying silhouettes
Rising over the motherland
Are those the fireworks?
No, it's a military quirk
Is it a mermaid singing?
No, it's a siren screaming
Is it an angel watching over us?
It's an air-fighter making a fuss
Is it a unicorn galloping down the street?
No, those are soldiers' boots marching to the beat
Marching to the beat
Is it an angel watching over us?
Is it an air-fighter making a fuss?
Why is this party looking so bizarre?
A party? No, this is
W.A.R.
My darling, did we wake up like this?
Isolated bodies in a boudoir of helplessness
A bullet is an early bird, a midnight owl
Morning greetings of a rooster are replaced
With fire in a hole, fire in a hole
My dear, do we have to go to sleep like that?
With a soothing cocktail and the hundredth cigarette
Morning greetings of a rooster are replaced
With fire in a hole
Our beds are cold
As cold as basement floor
Our beds are cold
As cold as basement floor
This house is not our shelter anymore
This house is not our shelter anymore
This house is not our shelter anymore
Anymore
Home is not a building
Home is liberty
A place where memories live
In prosperity and peace
I came back home so I want my home back
I came back home so I want my home back
Don't you leave us homeless
Don't you leave us homeless
Homeless, homeless"
Quite often Eugene takes on the traditional role of the guitar with his lead lines, apart from laying down the bass fundamentals, while Roman creates intricate harmonic weaves. So their roles are not what you're generally used to in metal.
Yea, My couple re listens I really liked it more
Speaking to your assessment of the guitar/bass...This song is not the greatest example of either, though I love this song. A) the only person in the band with any formal music education is the drummer (Vlad) and he is a classically trained pianist. B) They tend to be a little understated as individuals, and (more so in other songs) their strength is in their tightness, and synergy. They truly tend to make a sound together that is so much greater than the sum of their parts. Their new album coming out soon is supposed to showcase Roman (guitar) a little more, so we'll see what that does. As for Eugene...I recommend "Who Is Gonna Be the One" live to see a little more of what he can do. He's a phenomenally unique bassist, with a very identifiable sound once you get to know it. As for a good example of the band just being a tight AF progressive/Djent...almost mathcore powerhouse, check out "Teacher Teacher"...I would check out the official studio music video, but there is also a great recording of them doing it live in Melbourne 2020. In fact, that entire Melbourne set is a powerhouse. The sound quality is amazing...just the perfect venue for them.
MORE JINJER. They are so bad ass. Tatiana is a true legend. She cannot possibly get enough credit for how talented she is. She might be one of the greatest frontpeople of all time...any genre. She has it all. Sings like an angel, screams like a demon, she's stunning, her stage presence is captivating...she just owns it.
Oh dude, I also think they were doing things I wasnt used too, cause I re listened and my opinion changed.
I wonder if the perceived emptiness of the guitar is deliberate for this song. Interested to know what you think about that after hearing another song.
I have some reactions coming. I went back to re listen and I enjoyed it alot more
I actually agree about the guitar, but not the bass. I love his style, but that’s my instrument. He’s innovative. And I love that he’s standing out of the mix so I can hear it.
Its just something with the tone that stood out to me. But overall great song
Looks like you already have a lot of suggestions. The number of good Jinjer songs on TH-cam is pretty high. Like for every band there are plenty of terrible "fan in the audience with a crappy video camera or phone" videos out there but if you stick to the official live stuff and music videos you won't be disappointed. The list is long so I usually just post a link to a playlist I put together which I play on a regular basis. th-cam.com/play/PLhlYsqoR9XLEpHTbaOovrpa1p8L2uZ81G.html
Much love dude! Appreciate it so much
Sooo . Sleep Token when? Their song Ascensionism should do just fine 🤓
I got you😀
Just as a heads up it's pretty much a two man project that has two other touring members, bassist and guitarist. The singer writes and does all the electronic production, piano work, and guitar. The only other studio member is their sick drummer.
Tina s thru the fire and flames dragon force cover
Who is Going to be the One (Live) would be a good pick. Slightly older song, but a great performance. More of a ‘fun’ song than this, if that makes sense.
I got a few reactions coming! Dude...brutal!

added it
Everything Jinjer does is with purpose...if something seems distant or "lacking", it's because the focus is deliberately pointed toward something else...in this song, it's more focused on lyrics and drums with lead and bass supplementing the sound...this is a bit of an odd song to introduce yourself to the band with...Tatiana writes and recites poetry while thrashing to prog metal...there is very deep meaning in the lyrics (most of the time)
Im learning that! I have some more reactions coming. Its funny, when I went back and listened again I enjoyed it alot more
try teacher teacherr or i speak astronomy... and if you want to really consider what the guitars actually sound like... try the guitarist's guitar play through (no vocals) of Words of wisdom.... SICK riffs, all over the place
You got it dude!
6:40 - It's not your ears, maybe you're accustomed to the types of Metal productions that Jinjer consciously stay away from. Did you hear Vlad's snare sound or what Eugene, the bass player, was doing? Not to mention how Roman, the guitar player, manages to fill the space while being the only guitar in the band. Where do you find that in Metal?
I'm excited to challenge what I've been accustomed to and open myself up to new music I'm not used too.
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody - I've been a fan of heavier types of music pretty much since their onset in the mid 70's but I stopped listening to Metal since the late 2000's exactly because of the production. Everybody started using sample replacement in drums, everybody "discovered" a certain type of guitar sound and started using it and to me, Metal became boring and unlistenable.
Gojira got me back when I discovered them in the early 2010's and even their early Progressive Death Metal style was to my liking. Why? Because they sound different. The same thing captivated me when I discovered Jinjer in 2016, after the 2nd guitar player, and the only founding member remaining, left the band in 2015 and Vlad joined: in a world where Djent was king, they were a breath of fresh air. My only "gripe" about them is their King of Everything album, exactly because of the overproduction and use of sample replacement.
perhaps the guitar was intended to sound hollow, like returning to Donbass occupied, still contested in a 21st century war, feels hollow ?
dear friend, I meant non as a insult. Nor did I know the context of the video. You can clearly see Im not being rude or smart. This was my first time hearing them, and Was just going by my hearing. I dont know if ur comment is intended for rudeness, but Im sorry if you think I was being i sensitive about this video.
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody I appreciate your reply, my comment was just intended as that, a comment. No judgement was intended, I do like your reaction, my comment may be inaccurate, it was just a theory I presented as a possible reason for the anomaly you pointed out. Keep up your material creation, don´t read my/our internet comments to literally, I rarely comment, I just had that insight (false it may be) and wanted to share it. It was not intended to put you down, it saddens me if it had that result :/
@@user-bc4bi3co2m Yoooo we just went to a new level. I respect the hell out of you for this. I'm very thankful that you said this.

This song is extremely heavy for a Jinjer song and indeed a bit "hollow". There's no comfort of the usual metal mid range or even a real chorus and musically the song's left kind of unresolved.
Which, considering kids in Ukraine still flee to basements to take cover from air raids and the band's homes are still not safe is most likely a very intentional decision.
This is not a song that's meant to feel good.
On other songs they often switch who's covering the distorted mid range. When Tati's growling the guys often pick or pluck to make it less muddy and then go to distorted sound when she's doing high cleans.
Their stylistic choices are often unusual, but they don't *need* a second guitarist to fill the spectrum where they *want* to fill it.
@@JariJuslin I see that now. I went in completely blind, not know the context of the song. It makes perfect sense
Эта песня написана до событий на Украине сейчас,, написана как раз об обстреле украинскими формировании Донбасса.
