Yeah, they tend to have the most to say, and they pick up on little details that regular people miss, like the lack of visible tendons in her neck to show she's not straining herself. Also, as in this video, they never wonder if it's really her or not like other people often do. Vocal coaches always know it really is her voice, and they know how she's doing it, but it still shocks them and blows them away even more because they understand how difficult it is to do that.

“GREAT BOWLS OF BROCCOLI” just became a favorite exclamation, so thanks for that

This session was a result of them doing a re-recording of this song, after finding out that it sounds very differently with their new and still current drummer Vlad. So it was kinda made to show off his skills. And yes, Eugene on the bass is a beast! The entire band is immensely talented.

Best thing they did was add Vlad. Dude adds so much to their songs it’s incredible. That whole bad is incredibly talented.

It's a sound and technique she's developed after about 15 years of practice and approximately 150 to 200 shows a year for the last several years. She definitely worked hard for it.

Definitely good advice on people not just trying out what she does. She trained alot to learn how to do that without destroying her voice. It's not something you just do.

That "sound" is a false chord scream. I can do that as well. Took me approximately 2 months to learn to get the tone, but probably 3-4 years to get it down well enough (and safe enough to not hurt myself) to perform. 15 years of doing this and I do not have any damage to my voice. I'm glad you noticed the complete lack of tension because thats the trick most vocal teachers get wrong. It is ZERO tension and completely "voiceless". The sound is entirely made by relaxing and holding your vocal cords open and the folds above your vocal chords flapping about, then ultimately just shaped into words by your mouth. If you use any of your voice or throat, it WILL hurt you. I learned from experience that if you feel it or feel tired or strained, you're doing it wrong.

I think Tatian can do anything she wants with the mic... She's a goddess : )

You love how they incorporated their drummer. They did this video to really show off their new drummer who put his spin on the original take to this song. He made it sound SOO much better than the original recording. The dude is a beast of percussionist!

OMG, I was waiting for this!!! You should react to Jinjer- Teacher, Teacher. It´s an amazing song!!

I was lucky to see them live right before the pandemic started 😍 Just one word to describe their concert: superb!

Tatiana has been singing in 8 different bands since she was 15 years old. She was born in 1987, the year of Rabbit (or Cat) according to Chinese horoscope. Her zodiac sign is PISCES. As a matter of fact she has written these lyrics to tell about a Pisces personality, and reveals the traits of character of a person under this sign. Great lyrics!

Appreciated the comment on not touching the mic! My brother is a mix engineer, and man has he DRILLED this into my brain over the years regarding my own singing. I get so frustratingly distracted when I see it. Fortunately, Tatiana is still amaaaaazing. ;-)

I had the pleasure to watch them live and yes... It was this perfect! They are freaking good professionals and so warm with their fans.

Love to see a vocal coach go damn that was cool it’s amazing.

She taught herself to produce the growl solely from her diaphragm, completely avoiding her false chords. One of the big reasons it is so easy for her to switch between melodic and growl so effortlessly.

@Mr.Ekshin

2 жыл бұрын

Ummm... no. You really have no idea what you're talking about. Tatiana's growl is 100% produced by her false cords (vestibular folds). The 'diaphragm' is merely a muscle that causes your lungs to draw or expel air. You can't actually produce any sounds with your diaphragm. I assume you've misunderstood all those vocal coaches who talk about "singing from the diaphragm". They are talking about proper air management, not actual sound production.

Again, I admit I may have misunderstood, and she may have just been trying to describe as best as she understands it.

Luis Nunes A little pitchiness is fine, even from a classical standpoint (M.M. in tuba performance, myself). Having someone that understands the mechanics of producing a vocal tone explain the pros and cons of a certain approach should always be a welcome thing. Yes, of course that song came out 5 years ago, and Brittany has evolved since then, but that doesn’t mean there’s no merit in hearing a vocal coaches take on them. It could be quite valuable from a pedagogical standpoint.

this video got me into jinjer

Getting my popcorn ready.

Always gives me a smile when anyone spots the musically erudite composition & performance from Eugene on bass- I'm a hobby bassist myself, & he sickens me!! LOL All 4 of them are outstanding at what they do tho. They are one of those rare multiple-lightning-strikes bands. I mean, how many metal drummers are classically trained pianists who can also be convincing on guitar & bass, never mind anything else?! :)

Hi, I'm new in your channel. I met Tatiana in 2018 when she came to Colombia, I can assure you that Jinjer is better in live. The vocal technique that she uses is unique. It deserves much more recognition in the world. I recommend listening to Teacher Teacher, the changes in his voice are incredible. ❤️

This video is most peoples' first exposure to Jinjer (it was certainly mine) so now I have to go back Ken, and see your earlier Jinjer reaction. I'll be sure to look through your other reactions as well.

I've watched a number of "pro-vocalist reviews pisces" vids, and gotta say, your knowledge of little studio tips and enthusiasm is really rewarding to watch. Keep swinging, boss.

Love it

Glad you are sharing the metal rabbit hole with us

This only scratches the surface of what she can do!!

There is a lot of editing on this. That said, the recording schedule for their latest album was very compressed due to also doing 152 shows on several continents that year, and Eugene says she improvised most of the vocal compositions with very few takes. Tati's evaluation was less charitable, saying "I wasn't prepared" haha. She is very talented, but there's a lot of years of work that went into making the most of that talent, including 4 years practicing growls before starting to use them in performances. All told she's been performing in various bands over half her life, since she was 15.

I don’t think I’ve switched videos that fast in a long time. I couldn’t wait to see Ken’s reaction to “that moment”. As sophisticated as he is, I knew he’d totally get it. The mic touching thing, oh, you wait... watch her live... :-) She does all this without training, an no warm up too. Live...

I love her screams she fucking nails that guttural sound and the contrast between that poppy sound and that scream is *chefs kiss*

There is a band called The Agonist which was founded 5 years before Jinjer. They have a similar style. The original singer Alissa White-Gluz is now with Arch Enemy and there for cant show her full skill set. I would recomend Panophobia if you need a video, otherwhise Ideomotor (8min Version). And if you are hooked check the new lineup too. The go to songs here would be In Vertigo or Blood as my Guide (there is a clean greek part in it, i now undrstand the sirens myth) 😜

You've just hit 2 of my top 5 reactions songs, this and Kingdom. Now I have to ask for BabyMetal: Rondo of Nightmare with Mischeifs of God intro.

I think it's a little more forgivable in metal. When skeletonwitch recorded breathing the fire chance used a handheld mic for his vocals and it sounds awesome. It's ok to break the rules sometimes when you have enough experience to know why you're breaking them.

Excellent Growling!

Awesome reaction to a really talented band. Very entertaining commentary on some technical aspects of her singing. Try "Retrospection", deep meaning song with great lyrics and vocals in english and russian or do another live one, "Who´s Gonna Be The One" live is a good start.

Nice genuine reaction. Another great band with a dynamic female vocalist is Spiritbox. Check out the video of Courtney doing a live vocal take of rule of nines- she slays.

She drinks and she smokes.. can she get any better.... f`ing love it. great music and great sound

One of my vocal technique goals is to learn how to scream healthily😍 It's so cool!

Musically fantastic as well .

Great band. Peace

After Rebecca did it i kinda wanna see more vocal coaches react to aerials by system of a down

i always assumed there was a lot of overlaying and heavy modulation to her parts.. until i seen Lena Scissorhands live. There is some editing, of course, but not nearly as much as I thought. Amazing!

She can do whatever the hell she wants with the mic. She SLAYS.

It is easy to hear several vocal layers on the harsh parts. The fact that she can handle the mic without problem indicates that the level of compression used is through the roof.

Jinjer Teacher Teacher will blow your mind. Last comment I swear. It’s musically amazing. Then there is the singer.

I'm gonna add my voice to the: Nightwish, Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013

The metal growl is a very specific technique, which as you noticed, is part of the relaxed throat. When people are simply forcing it you can see them straining and it will quite literally rip your throat apart. There are actual voice coaches that specialize in it now days (I think at least one you can find here on KZread and has worked with a number of big names)

Love, love, love.

So why haven't I heard of this band before? Wtf they are awesome!

Another great video 🖤 absolutely love Jinjer, all of them are musical beasts... You should listen to Deliverance by Opeth.. Hello from Costa Rica 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷

"I'm really diggin' this bass player" ---> subscribed :-D

It’s time for Spiritbox Holy Roller or to ease into it you can do Rule of Nines the studio one take of the vocals.

I'm SO glad you mentioned the bass player! I too know nothing about him, and I blame that on sheer laziness on my part, to not do the research. However, once you dissect this song, it's really hard to find the superstar. Unfortunately, the anomaly of Tatiana's vocal prowess often overshadows the tallent of the rest of the group.

The producer who told her not to touch the mic in studio had his heart ripped out of his chest and devoured at the end of this session. LOL.

i really love your humor and your style! :) i can recommend the Band "Haken" with the song "Invasion"
