My song of the year for 2019. Love seeing musicians' first watch thru of this. The super deliberate drop-A sludge with Tatiana spitting a few statement-of-intent bars at the beginning gets me hyped every time! Then the main body of the thing is one of their more choppy, proggy timing, slabs of aggression. Very brain-engaging imho- I've never counted it out, I just *absorbed* it with many listens per day for ages when it came out! I love the fact that when they *do* go 4/4 for the big chorus, Vlad the easily-bored high-IQ drummer does his best to give you a double-take "wait... *is* this 4/4?!" LOL When the chill section hits, with Roman switching to atmospheric sponsored-by-Strymon shimmery chords & Eugene taking up melody duties with that superb both-hands-always-busy-yet-always-in-service-to-the-song bass work, & Tatiana comes back in with that super tender light vocal.... #Chills indeed.... it's scarcely believable that a minute prior we were having a maximum-slam-in-the-moshpit blast beat thrash-out!! Great shout from you here, that Tatiana deserves more credit for her songwriting ability to come up with very organic, human, vocal lines over the lads' what can be very angular, almost math-y, musical compositions. Don't get me wrong, I *love* what the lads come up with, to the point I'd probably buy their compositions with whether they have vocals or not!... but Tatiana can often be the human heart which glues the heady music together imho. :)

So well stated and couldn’t agree more with your comment! There is so much magic going on with this tune, and what a time to be alive to witness this!! The rare combination of everything you shared is what makes Jinjer so unique, special, and why I’m a bit obsessed with them!! Really appreciate the note and checking this out with me!

@@StanDotsethMusic I don't tend toward lengthy Toob comments unless the creator *gets it* with Jinjer. You obviously do tho, so you get the mini essay! LOL As you can probably tell from my username, I grew up in 7/4 with Soundgarden (& Tool & a few others not stuck in 4/4), so for me this track is just a very pronounced form of going with more interesting time sigs.... but a lot of folks really struggle with it. The fact that you picked up on what a great job Tatiana does, injecting a very human feel over the lads' cerebral progginess, made me want to type something! Anyhoo, all the best from a random Jinjer-appreciating subscriber in sunny Scotland! ;)

Y'all are fkn cool! You get it. Maybe it takes a musician to fully appreciate it. I'm often amazed by how Tatiana can even come up with a vocal part over those crazy time signature changes. But she works her magic every time, and it's always just right for the song. This one in particular, along with Judgement & Punishment, have such a catchy melodic chorus that's in 4/4, but the emphasis takes it way outside the normal range of 4/4. And Tatiana's vocal part carries the thread of the rhythm through all the oddball accents. It's like a classical concerto, and get voice is another instrument in the ensemble. I'm obsessed like you guys! Just saw them a few days ago live. They're a must-see!

Great reaction! Liked and subbed. I love Jinjer videos, and love Jinjer reactions. My latest hobby. I hope you get a chance to see them live on this tour. They're playing like a thousand shows in America in the next few months. Their tour itinerary is crazy, but they never disappoint. They're in the middle of two simultaneous tours right now, opening for Disturbed and also headlining inn their own right. I'd recommend one of the headlining shows--you'll get much more Jinjer bang for your buck. Cheaper too. Catching them live will seal the deal! Lots of us Jinjer fans have been around the block a few times, and seen many bands live. We can get jaded after a while, and I'm no exception. It takes something special to really make us stand up and take notice. Jinjer for me is the most exciting band to come along in quite a while. I saw Rush 36x live between 1978 and their last show in 2015. Jinjer is THAT good live! I hope I get the chance to see them 36x--I'll have to work fast! Rock on brotha!
