Dear all, as we write this text, for the moment each member of Jinjer and our families are safe and unhurt. We truly appreciate all the fans around the world for caring, getting in touch and for all the sympathy and support for our band and more importantly, our country.
As you know this morning on February 24th, Putin started the war against the sovereign and independent #Ukraine. Please know that in this time we really depend on you, our fans in every country, to support peace in our country however you can - especially our fans in Russia, you and your opinion matter most at this time.
Nothing can justify the violence and death of innocents, and this is exactly what's happening in our country right now.
Stop the war in Ukraine now!
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, these are soldier boots marching down your lane
Marching to the beat
-
Is it an angel watching over us?
It's 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 greeting of a rooster are replaced
With fire in a hole, with 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
Jinjers don’t have souls...
Tatiana Shmailyuk is one of the most talented vocalists anywhere. Weird music, to be sure
The time to stop the war in Ukraine was 8 years ago...where ya been?
Not to worry as I don’t see this going more than 2 days as Ukraine is forced to reunite with the Ruskies.
And the band has been living through it the whole time.
They all hate, hate, hate Putin.
I saw them in Harrisburg recently.
They aren’t for everyone but I enjoyed it.
Living in Donetsk thru eight years of civil war waged by the government against them?
Very doubtful...
They all hate, hate, hate Putin.
And Neil Young hates Donald Trump...so what?
I’m a fan. She’s a very talented vocalist even without the growling, which is WAY more difficult than just screaming into a mic, because there is a technique to it; otherwise you mess up your throat. I’ve tried. It’s really hard.
“Pisces” ranks as one of my favorite songs by them. It showcases her abilities as a more traditional vocalist and a growler.
They’re a band. I doubt they’ve lived in one place for eight years. But they are from Ukraine. And the lead singer was born in Donetsk.
And Donald Trump hasn’t bombed Canada.
She has a beautiful voice when not growling.
The first time I heard them, I remember thinking that it was amazing, but I wasn’t sure I even liked it. Weird. Her throat singing (for lack of a better term) woven into their metal/fusion music is unique. Does their sound come across well live?
If you’re getting your world view from Ukrap punk bands, then you obviously don’t have a clue what’s going on...cheers.
Don’t know where that came from but its no more ignorant than your previous ignorant comment.
Cheers indeed.
It was as awesome live as it is on tape.
Not all bands can pull off sounding as good live as in the studio but they do.
And being a troll is not a flattering look for you...
Great Band.
She was a very attractive lady until she got that stupid neck tattoo.
But they put on a pretty good show all the same.
