🔥 From the war-torn streets of Ukraine to the world’s biggest metal stages, Tatiana Shmayluk isn’t just a vocalist—she’s a force of nature.

Born in Horlivka, Ukraine (1987), Tatiana has spent the last decade redefining modern metalcore as the frontwoman of Jinjer, blending brutal gutturals with hauntingly beautiful cleans. Whether she’s floating through the melodic verses of “Pisces” or unleashing hell in “Vortex,” her voice is a weapon—raw, emotional, and devastatingly powerful.

The Making of a Metal Icon

🖤 A choir kid at 8, Tatiana’s journey into metal began when she discovered her brother’s Aria (Russian metal band) tapes. What started as a fascination became an obsession—one that would shape her into one of the most dynamic vocalists in heavy music.

🖤 In 2010, she joined Jinjer, a then-underground band from Donetsk. With her at the helm, they evolved from local heroes to global metal тιтans, thanks to her otherworldly range and the band’s crushing blend of groove metal, prog, and hardcore.

Commanding the Stage Like a War General

Tatiana doesn’t just perform—she dominates.

• Dressed in ripped black tanks, cargo pants, and combat boots, she stalks the stage like a predator, her jet-black hair whipping in the strobe lights.

• Her green eyes burn with intensity, shifting from sorrow to fury mid-song.

• She channels the raw aggression of Pantera and the artistic depth of Kate Bush, creating a sound that’s brutal yet poetic.

Breaking Barriers, Shattering Expectations

🎤 From touring with Slipknot to headlining Wacken Open Air, Tatiana has proven that women in metal don’t just belong—they lead.

• 2021 FemMetal Awards – Best Brutal Vocals (beating out legends like Arch Enemy’s Alissa White-Gluz).

• Guest vocals on Decapitated’s “Hello Death” (2022)—a collab that cemented her as death metal royalty.

• Jinjer’s latest album Duél (2025) is a chart-slaying masterpiece, blending Ukrainian folk influences with bone-snapping breakdowns.

More Than Music—A Voice for Ukraine

🇺🇦 Tatiana’s art is deeply tied to her homeland. Born in a city ravaged by war, her lyrics often reflect struggle, resilience, and defiance. When she screams, it’s not just for metal—it’s for survival, for those still fighting.

The Legacy of a Modern Metal Queen

💀 Vegan. Fighter. Unapologetically fierce. Tatiana Shmayluk isn’t just a singer—she’s a symbol of strength in a genre built on rebellion. With every growl, every clean note, every piercing stare, she reminds the world:

🔥 Metal has no limits. And neither does she.

🎧 “I don’t need to prove anything to anyone. I just need to be myself—loud, angry, and free.” — Tatiana Shmayluk
