“Wallflower” is Tatiana Schmayluk in a nutshell. That song, Call Me A Symbol and Mediator get really deep into her psyche as an individual
I’m a simple man… I see Jinjer, it gets a like. Tatiana is a beast and the band is amazing
Queen TaTi …
Thank you, Taylor! Watched a whole bunch of your reactions to Slipknot last night. A part of me that used to be that kid listening to metal because it felt like only that really helped and was the medium of my inner turmoil and suffering wept to the fact that someone like yourself gets it, really gets it.
Different music is certainly therapeutic in different ways, but metal has a cathartic energy to it (IMHO), and it just feels so damn good to see you get it, relate to it, interpret it.
When i was younger, there were plenty of people around who didn’t understand my love for metal music. Every time i see someone who relates, it hits home and feels like connectedness. And that’s an awesome feeling.
Speaking of which, hey to all the fellow metalheads in the comment section!
Welcome to Jinjer!..
Welcome to the cult of Tatiana.
“all men are Pisces”
I’m a Cancer myself, close enough.
You gotta do the deathcore ballad that is Pain Remains 1, 2, and 3. Lorna Shore makes angry music so sad.
lol that perfectly timed comment. I was listening to this with my great niece who is 5 and when that moment hit she turns to me and goes “hey they are rocking and a rolling”
They have some songs with interesting lyrics,Perennial,Wallflowers and Home Back
You should check : I speak astronomy, mediator,the prophecy
“Girl Power!” Oh, sweet summer child…
This song is so perfect. Next shock is Teacher Teacher song. React to that song also.
Great analysis. Some others that delve into Tati’s mental health struggles are Perennial (live at Wacken is most impressive but the omv is beautiful and meaningful), Pit of Consciousness (live in Kiev now Kyiv is most impressive but the omv is superb - the song is fairly reflective of what she talks about in an interview in Psychology Today that comes up readily on Google but is based on a poem she wrote as a teenager and it sounds like things mellowed a bit in between) and practically the whole allbum Wallflowers but I’d suggest especially Vortex for great video. Subbed. Cheers!
i fkn love you LMFAO !!! Tatiana is a force - you are in for soooooo many treats as you delve into their music

Bro we need more NF don’t forget about him please!!
I’m pretty sure you’ll like other Jinjer’s songs 'cause many of them are dealing with some psychological issues, struggles and suffering.
Tatiana (the singer) is a main lyricist of the band. She’s a Pisces (as well as bassist who helped to finish the lyrics to this song).
Most of “psychological” Jinjer’s songs Tatiana creates out of her personal experience. It means she describes her personal issues in most cases in her lyrics.
Just a brief list which came to my mind right away:
- Wallflower (OMV) - a bit of duality but mostly it’s a song from the persperctive of introvert.
- Perennial (live at Wacken) - a poem about seasonal depression.
- Pit of Consciousness (Live in Kiev or OMV) - about something like dissociative identity disorder
- Vortex (OMV or live at Hellfest) - about intrusive heavy thoughts which tend to self destruction
- On The Top (live in Kiev) - about loneliness of those who run to the top of success
- Retrospection (OMV or live in Melbourne) - about nostalgia and missing the father’s house
- Pearl and Swine (studio recording) - about suffering of those who open their souls to ingratitude people
Well, pretty much every second song comes to my mind could be added to this list Especially from the later albums.
Lots of material for your channel.
And all of this combined with extremely high level of musical quality (both composing and performing) and extraordinary skills of their front person/singer.
Perennial: It’s about S.A.D. I’ve said too much.
I just ran across your channel recently and have been enjoying it. Two songs you might be able to dive into that people would like to see your take on, as a therapist, would be the following by Amigo the Devil.
Amigo The Devil - Another Man’s Grave (Acoustic)
AMIGO THE DEVIL - “Cocaine and Abel” - BRIDGE CITY SESSIONS
Love your reaction, facial expression and laugh Priceless!!!
Welcome to the Jinjer rabbit hole, and when it comes to female front women and singers in heavy metal, then you’ve arrived at the goddess, bad:peach: girl and let’s be honest, objectively the unicorn in beautiful singing, clear, clean, angelic voice and then rough, screaming and clear, clean extremely deep growls for a woman singing grandmaster Tatjana Shmayluk!!! Would you like to see more of this extraordinary band from Ukraine, I saw it live for the first time in 2012 and this woman left me completely speechless with her wild hair but there was already 200% power and the accelerator pedal was completely pressed to the floor for the whole concert through! Then I have sorted their songs in official music videos and also live concerts and festival recordings of their songs here according to development years! If you have both versions you can see and hear how perfectly good the entire band is, whether in the studio, on the album or live on stage… They are incredibly good, talented and creative musicians who go from what was once metalcore to what is now their own heavy metal genre Style that only Jinjer mixes like this from various directions!

I didn’t take into account all collabrations between the band Jinjer and Tatjana with other artists & bands with live performances or music videos or Tatjana at Videogames!
As an example, Hello Death as a single from April 2022, or with O.P.C !
The order compiled here is not 100% arranged like the album playlist, because sometimes there are no music videos, or they are not good enough quality for me to list here! I started adding to the list, step by step a few years ago with the available songs, qualities and release dates. I’ll probably add to the list next year, i.e. more likely at the end / autumn of 2024 when Jinjer starts in the studio with the planned new album!
