You should do boat paddle by iwrestledabearonce. This is back when Courtney from spiritbox was singing for them. Plus the video is hilarious.
ditto - vote for Boat Paddle - and alien death rays
I DID IT WAS AWESOME... GO GO POWER RANGERS!!!
@@OldSkuleNerd I saw it last week when you aired it I sent that a month ago. Awesome reaction, you are right girls have been doing this for wayyyy longer than jinjer. Like Kittie, arch enemy, otep and many more. Keep it up
I was not expecting iwrestledabearonce on my feed today. Took me right back to high school lol
Same here 🤘🏼
Especially this fucking song. Oh lord came out of nowhere. Love it though
Right. And in my opinion. Pisces doesn't hold a candle to some old school iwrestledabearonce.
Trueee lol
IWABO were my favorite Warped Tour band back in the glory days of 2007-2012. They freaking ruled! And yes Krysta the singer could do it all, sing and scream with the very best of them
I saw them at Warped in 2012, I saw a dude hit a girl in the crowd, and 6 other dudes came running in and started beating the ever living shit out of him during a particularly heavy part of a song, cant remember which one, that memory will forever live in my brain lmaooooo
I got the pleasure of seeing them in 2009, Krysta sounds exactly like that in real life, it was absolutely stunning!
Saw them live back in the day and they sounded exactly like their recordings, shit was awesome
Krysta Cameron is a beastly goddess behind the microphone.
You should react to Danger in the Manger next.
The whole it's all happening album is awesome!!!
There where a few singers doing that back then. Kittie, Otep, Straight Line Stitch, to name a few. According to Tatiana, she learned to scream and growl because of Otep. And don't forget, she joined Jinjer in 2010.
Don't forget Karyn Crisis from the band Crisis. She's been doing it since the 90s and influenced a good chunk of female vocalists.
Otep ❤️
Absolutely they were ahead of their time. Very underrated band at that time. Took me back to my highschool years!
This is the singer of the first 2 albums she left and courtney (now of spiritbox) took over vocals on the last 2 albums before they eventually split up.mike the guitar player of spiritbox and husband of courtney did guitar on the last ever album by this band.
Toured a bit with IWABO during this era. They were a riot, and people always left shows talking about them. What they’re playing is structured, but not in the way most people write and structure songs. They write riffs in a bunch of different keys, then assemble riffs in one key into a song.
When Courtney replace Krysta, and Mike eventually joined on guitar (both now of Spiritbox), the songs became slightly more structured and less controlled chaos. Gift Of Death is the most notable song of the later era.
There was a few other bands with female vocalists doing that sort of singing screaming thing (Kittie immediately comes to my mind) in the early 2000’s.
Wow, what a cool experience for you. Thanks for giving insight into how exactly they got their sound, to me it was always really unique and ear-catching.
When it comes to this group, pretty sure you'd dig the colorful, brutal, retro hijinks of "Danger In The Manger", and their pool party video "You Know That Ain't Them Dogs' Real Voices"... Yeah, that's actually the name hahah. Cheers!
Courtney laplante was the lead singer in this band before Spiritbox was a thing.Her husband was also
Courney substitute Krysta Cameron, the girl on this video.
Yeah this is the original lineup. IWABO went through multiple member switches. In the end only like 1 or 2 of the original members were left.
The world wasn't ready for this, they truly were ahead of their time.
OTEP been doing it for over 20 years, huge influence on Tatiana, try Hooks and Splinters
I was going to mention Otep.
I wasn't into OTEP because I dont like the growling, but did she sing high and clear as well? I definitely remember OTEP as a female growling voice, it was crazy.. then I saw Jinjer more recently. Never heard of IWABO though.
Yep, Otep Shamaya is arguably the first real standout clean/growl female artist. She has a good range, and a brutal growl, though I've never heard her do a clean belt and suspect she couldn't get anywhere near Courtney or Tati for vocal range. I always get 'very very angry Pink' vibes. Without her as an inspiration Tati may never have gone down the path she did.
Finally someone checks out IWABO and especially their old stuff.
Also you should maybe check out 'Danger in the manger' by them! Super stupid, but fun video.
YUUUUSSSSSS
I fucking LOVE this man and his descriptions were absolutely on point 🎯 I had the pleasure of seeing IWABO in their first and second tour. They’re goofballs on and offstage and signed my one dollar bill when I couldn’t afford to buy any merch, ♥️ 🤘🏻
Courtney from spiritbox took over the lead vocals for this band when this lead singer stepped away. They are awesome
Tatiana was in several bands before Jinjer, and has been singing both styles since seeing Otep in roughly 2003 (Tatiana says she saw them for the first time when she was 15-16), so it’s been around for quite some time for several singers. Internet has made it possible to discover them now, and it’s all amazing to see the skill levels involved.
Holy..... fukoyomi..... this was amazing. How did I not know this existed?? This is like the death core team from Broken by the Scream just going full out but in one complete voice. Wow.
Interesting take aha, I absolutely adore BBTS but don't like this era of IWABO at all, yet I can somehow see where you're coming from with the comparison haha.
Courtney from spritbox and the guitar player came from this band
Don’t worry I’ll show him that next Wednesday 🤘🏼😎
@@KingJoker866 and I’m gonna be there!
Back then, AND STILL TODAY, their on a different level then anyone else.
My boi, i’ve seen this band a half dozen times, ABSOLUTE flames!
I found a CD of theirs in the garbage years and years ago, my introduction to this epic band, it was a masterpiece that I wore out playing over and over and over again.
They were incredible in concert too
If you want to hear a pre jinjer female metal singer, do Otep - Blood Pigs (released in 2002). Otep Shamaya inspired Tatiana to learn to growl.
Straightline Stitch closes the gap between the two....
I recommend "Cerebral bore"
She was so good live. I miss em :(
Here's the thing, Jinjer's "Pisces" video got popular among reactors partly because it hit at just the right time, right before reaction channels started to take off, and also (not to take away from the rest of the band, who are amazing musicians) because Tatiana is particularly good at switching between harsh and clean vocals, with a very deep, almost masculine-sounding, growl that not too many women can emulate. But they were hardly the first band with a female vocalist doing harsh vocals, or even switching between growls and cleans. In addition to iwrestledabearonce, Kittie was doing similar things back in the early 2000s, as were Arch Enemy and Walls of Jericho using purely harsh female vocals (no cleans). Otep was combining harsh vocals with clean singing (though her cleans were often more akin to rap or spoken word) in the mid-late 2000s, and In This Moment (along with several other bands) was mixing up clean and harsh female vocals in the mid-2000s (and doing it extremely well - Maria Brink is fantastic).
My point with this little snippet of history isn't to take anything away from Tatiana or from Jinjer - I love them, they're a great band, and they're outstanding at what they do. But musically, what they are doing is evolutionary more than it is revolutionary, if that makes sense. If you're interested in more, definitely check out any of these bands I've talked about, particularly their mid-2000s work, if for no other reason than to put modern trends into a historical perspective.
good thing I read some comments before I pressed enter on mine. I wrote the same thing almost verbatim to this. lol
Damn i used to jam the shit out of Kittie when i was stationed at Ft. Lewis in 2000-2001. I loved that band, not sure what ever happened to them. Another great band from back then was SNOT. A damn shame the singer (male) was killed in a car accident, they were an amazing band.
Walls of Jericho - love them.
Yeah the whole Jinjer thing is taking off too much now that people think it's so revolutionary and new. I glad some of us still remember ;)
I remember having my mind blown by the first Agonist Record.
I'll never forget seeing this video for the first time on headbangers ball after a long night of partying. Brings back good memories. Also, Straight Line Stitch were around at the same time and Alexis Brown was killing it with screams and singing. You should check out Remission or Taste of Ashes.
I would kill for a new album from this band. They are so brilliant. Thats one of my favorit bands. But they no more exist
One year later, Floor Jansen was cutting between growls, belting and operatic head voice with ReVamp. Simone Pujilmers of Cerebral Bore was doing even more impressive growls eleven years ago. Courtney Laplante, now of Spiritbox, replaced Krysta in 2012. Not taking anything away from Tatiana, but she wasn't the only one.
You forgot Nina Hagen , she has vocal range covering nearly whole 88 key piano , shes like few keys short from both ends and she was doing that in 1970s .
Doesn't help that iwabo had a lot more mathcore in their sound; metalheads didn't latch on, why would they, they sound more like Botch than any metal band.
Love this band! Was awesome to see them in concert! Krysta is a beast 🙌🏽
Man I used to listen to them when they were new back in 08 I was in high school jamming out to all the good metal of the time lol
Interesting video and song..good reaction. Kittie did much the same about 14 - 15 yrs ago. One of their more popular songs being What I Always Wanted.
What I Always Wanted is cool and good video. I don't feel like Morgan's growls are quite as brutal as Otep and Angela half a decade later but Kittie was first and MTV probably wasn't ready for what was coming. Though also Kittie was all female which is awesome.
@@j.f.fisher5318 Definitely not as brutal, but for the time not bad
i mean...the girls in Kittie were only like 15 or 16 themselves at the time
Looks that they still are wresteling a bear. Great voice. Great performers. Never heard of them. Amazing. Tatiana’s mother😂. Thank you for this reaction.
🤘🏼 more where that came from
Krysta Cameron is only 3 years older than Tatiana lol
I guess they were ahead of their time. Courtney LaPlante and her husband were both in this band at one point before they formed Spiritbox if that tells you anything.
iwrestledabearonce was awesome, you should check out more from them. I’d recommend checking out some Kittie as well, the song, spit, or brackish
"Where they ahead of their time?" - hell yeah, they were. Sadly it didn't last long until they broke up. I really miss their music.
Sir. The only things around like this in 2008 was like flyleaf, first album in this moment and arch enemy. IWABO combined it all and they got on to metal sucks for like 3 months and then it was like nope. This band is amazing and I’m glad someone else noticed this was well before it’s time. Most girls in the scene mention 👆this band. Even Courtney from spirit box said this was her inspiration and then joined the band. From what I’m lead to believe.
Tatiana was doing that before she joined Jinjer which was in 2010. She was inspired to learn how by the lead singer of Otep.....
They once did a show at a small pizzeria in Farmington, Missouri. i have a few IWABO shirts. Been rocking them since 2008
Female vocalists doing brutal growls and cleans goes back to at least Otep ca 2000, who inspired Tatiana and I suspect influenced Maria Brink as well. Check out anything from the Confrontation DVD which came out in 2009 for the best sound live (Ghostflowers, for example), or for an official video their most watched is Blood Pigs.
Ghostflowers, yessssssssss
Gift Of Death - iwrestledabearonce
You must do it now, It's not goofy. But it's intense all all eff. Also, this is Krysta Cameron. The Boat Paddle video is Courtney, who is also from Spirtbox. Courtney sings on Gift of Death.
Wow, I knew about that song 10 years ++ before the Pisces song. Lol god I’m old
my friend and I saw this band live while on LSD in 2009 and we sneaked backstage and got them to sign a vinyl of their self titled album.
She could do guest vocals for Infant Annihilator. Would love to see that happen lol.
The vocalist also has a new band called Empyrean Lights. Her name is Krysta. Check out the song called this avalanche
Thank you for this comment. Been a while since listening to to IWABO. Found Spiritbox about 6 months ago, glad to hear Krysta is still making music!!
yeah, she and husband Darroh Sudderth divorced awhile back (that guy is legendary, amazing singer/frontman when he wasn't really drunk or sick), freed her up for EL. i liked her better up front than courtney. they seemed more fun & frivolous (although to be fair, they were always pretty fun anyway).
that little rifftacular break in the middle when we see all of them in 70s shorts? electric callboy has EVERYONE kissing their collectively cheesy asses for doing just what IWABO did 15 yrs ago.
God damn I had completely forgotten about this jam
If only someone would react to Button It Up, still has one of my favorite breakdowns ever 😢
I have a feeling this is going to be popping up on the usual reaction channels in the next few days.
You should check out Spiritbox if you haven't yet. :) It is what the lead singer is doing now.
OSnerd did a reaction video to Constance .. he was blown away
@@joemessina7720 I watched it this morning actually. :) I'm a little new to his channel.
Holy crap... that was a "F*ck the What" reaction jajajaja
Great reaction. So glad I got to meet them and got an autographed poster. Great fun live show
I think the shock factor with pisces is, at least partly, that it goes from clean singing and jazz unexpectedly to metal and growling. a combination of cleans and screaming can also be seen in early works from the agonist
Yes bro can you imagine discovering this when it came out
give me a number to watch you react to "The cat's pajamas." you thought these vocal changes were exceptional? my man, you'll be blown away at that if this reaction is genuine
Wow...I was not expecting that, but it was awesome and thank you so much for reacting to this, and adding another band to my list. I will say there were other bands in the early 2000s (Otep comes to mind) that were doing this with female fronts so it is not new, but I will agree none reached the react level that Jinjer has (it was the reason I found your channel). Great reaction as always and another great band that I need to check out. Well off down the rabbit hole again I guess.
Holy shit this takes me back! I love this band! Never thought I see a reaction video from them hahah
Rolo Tomassi was also doing this years before Jinjer/Spiritbox. Check out their music video for Party Wounds, which came out well over a decade ago
Fun fact: this band started in Shreveport. A little La love for ya.
These are serious growls, holy moly ... That's truely WTH worthy ! Well, technically this is not 10 years before Jinjer. Jinjer started in 2009 and Tatiana joined 2010.
Now you have to react to Monochromatic Black ! Phosphenes, Abaddon, The Herd ... doesn't matter. Get your ears flushed 📢.
Yessss! More iwbo!
Dont forget KITTIE, and WALLS OF JERICHO
Yeah bro their stuff is great!!!!
IWABO was amazing! Krysta was incredible! She is why we know Courtney now.
IT'S BEEN OVER 13 YEARS BUT FINALLY IWABO GETTING SOME RECOGNITION LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The other band doing this in 2008 was the British Band Rolo Tomassi... check out their newer stuff like Rituals off the album Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It...
just put on my Straitjacket and feel right at home rod doing it agine in love with this
on the album version she hits even higher notes. the music video version sounds like a live take.
2008 is exactly when scene-deathcore (and scenecore) was popular.
Kittie was doing it in 1996 bro.
Just... it's... well, thank you
THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE!! it's like if Zappa wrote METAL
I remember the last thing I told Krysta was that I was really sad that I couldn’t find bears to wrestle with in Brazil, it was around 2009-2010, good old times 😢.
I used to ask her a lot of weird things actually on Formspring
Kittie - What I Always Wanted
You need to check out Kittie - What I always wanted.. they were doing screams and singing back in the very early 2000’s and before
You cannot bridge the gap between this, and Jinjer without mentioning Straightline Stitch....
I can, never heard of them.
i LOVE IWABO, but only with Krysta on vox, you can see why in this video - she's amazing. such an underappreciated band!
Fun fact, this is pre spirit box. Great band, should check them out too.
Not a chance. She is amazing!
Check out "Break it down, Camacho". One of my favorite IWABO songs with Krystal on vocals.
Who was doing that? Otep, Arch Enemy, Kittie, Wendy O. Williams/Plasmatics (RIP), Butcher Babies, Flyleaf,
(will add more as I think of them)
Oh yeah! This is the way WTH Wednesday should sound like! This was absolutely brilliant and listening you to ramble totally crowned this reaction. Fantastic reaction once again!
Oh yes. I really love this band. U really need more of them. They changed singer in a moment too. And she is pretty good too :D
Yeah the person who replaced Krista was no other than Courtney Laplante, she’s the singer of Spiritbox
Krysta Cameron Was a beast and it is sad that she never returned to music after having her child
look up empyrean lights. you'll smile.
"Danger in the manger" is my favourite from them.. one of top10 songs of all time
Late, so this probably won't be seen, but Alissa White-Gluz was doing ranged screams and singing in 2008 as The Agonist's lead vocalist. I don't think lows+highs for both cleans+screams were shown of in a single song until their 2012 song "The Escape," but any of the first five songs from Lullabies For The Dormant Mind work. Also, Danger In The Manger is another great IWABO song from the same album that shows here talent and the band's uniqueness
Light this city the unwelcome Savior is A banger
The first time I saw iwrestledabearonce was with the song: You know that ain't them dogs' real voices
and I was blown away. I've been a fan of them ever since.
it's a shame that the singer stopped.
But I can only recommend OTEP - Blood Pigs or T.R.I.C.
+1 for Otep! Ghost Flowers was my intro to them.
glad i stumbled over this. 1) this band was WAY in front of the crowd. krysta cameran, soon-to-be-wife of the legendary Darroh Sudderth, vocalist of the amazing FAIR TO MIDLAND, right there with angela and otep, etc.
and of course, 2) they are doing what ELECTRIC CALLBOY does today, in terms of that crazy-nerdcore LOOK and behavior. this shit was brilliant. i liked them better with krysta than even with courtney (their singer after krysta left).
Before 2008 there's band called KITTY but yeah crystal vox are my favorite in iwabo
Lacey Sturm from Flyleaf was doing this back in 2002.
Also Chiodos were around 2008 , they go hard with clean & harsh vocals
He should check out some Chiodos for sure, probably start with The Undertakers Thirst For Revenge Is Unquenchable and move onto move of their other stuff from there. If he likes them he could even get out D.R.U.G.S who were also reaaaaally good.
As others have commented. This wasn’t the first band to have this kind of lady vocals. I can name a few others that aren’t in the comments. Also, as others have stated, Courtney of Spiritbox was in this band. Left to start Spiritbox.
You mentioned Jinjer. They formed in 2009. Walls of Jericho, a band mentioned in the comments, formed in 1998 and also had a female lead vocalist who screamed/growled. Arch Enemy formed in 1995 and had a female vocalist who had aggressive vocals. Point is, this isn’t new. Just had been overlooked.
Each day more and more women put themselves out there as musicians and vocalist in these heavy genre bands and I think it’s a great thing. Especially for the metal scene for what should be obvious reasons.
(Edited for spelling)
Krysta learned to walked so Tatiana could run. iwabo blazed some trails
He didn’t time travel. He invented it. He is the reason why women do it today
That breakdown at the end tho.. incredible
This is one of my fav bands with a female vocalist krysta can do it all from chaotic screams to those angelic melody's perfect combo🔥🌌 oh and do check out the band into the silence - call me susan i think u will dig it🤘🏼
ah Krysta Cameron. The woman who Courtney LaPlante calls her idol...yet has never met her despite replacing her.
Krysta quit after she got knocked up by the dude from Fair To Midland. That guy is an incredible vocalist too and somehow got a song about Penises turned into a single and music video. Bet their kid has an awesome voice.
I wish that entire album could be remastered. The drums and bass guitar need to be more prominent.
Btw, she is now in a band called Empyrean Lights.
