Following my mini series on The Warning, several people told me to look into this young rock band out of western Canada. Another excellent recommendation!
@freeze_the_fall_band proves that age is simply a number with this great piece of music called Daughter of Witches. They also have an EP out now called Thrones. Go check it out!
There was plenty for me to explore after the MV. There were also a few live performances including a cover of The Warning's Evolve (which I am very familiar with at this point ^_^)

Can you imagine what they're going to be producing in 5 more years? 10?! Can't wait to see where they go from here!
As it turns out, if they hadn't covered Evolve (and did it as well as they did), none of this would have happened. Or more likely it wouldn't have happened as quickly. The Warning Army was alerted to this cover courtesy of the UA-cam algorithm which got them a lot of attention. In particular a YT reaction channel in Canada called BEL Development was instrumental in promoting them and had them on a livestream. During this livestream a number of viewers out of the blue donated money to them and this led them to create a Kickstarter campaign for their first EP which is now fully released. All while they're still in the middle of their high school years.
Really awesome that you are checking out Freeze The Fall so soon after the recommendations! I'm one of those that found FTF through their cover of Evolve, then checked out that same performance of Daughters of Witches. I then had to watch every song from that show, it was only 3 months old at that point. For other bands to add to the list: Plush (hard rock, friends with The Warning and toured a bit together); Voice of Baceprot (metal, have both originals and creative covers); and The Sixsters (rock, have a variety of mixed genres).
Very impressive for their debut EP. Sounding and performing better live all the time, and playing in front of some nice crowds in Kelowna, Vancouver, etc. Nice job on the bass cover!❄️🤘❄️
Yeah just dropping in here. I never heard of Band Maid. And I don't understand the maid thing. What is that? Is that a Japanese fetish thing? I've heard one member of this Japanese band talk and she sounded like a little child. Is that real or is playing a character? They seem to be good musicians and they play very fast and move very mechanically. The beat of their music doesn't sound rock. The Warning is straight at you hard rock grunge, metal and pop. Just my opinion. Keep rockin.
I knew you would love FTF-they’re fantastic! The drummer (Jonah) reminds me of Danny Carey (from TOOL) with the way he plays Keep going with The Warning and Freeze the Fall! And…👍👍 HARMONICS!! 😆
Pretty good for highschool kids...Thanks
The blindfold... 😅 Another band to check out is The Sixsters. Originally six girls who are not actually sisters but down to five in recent years. They are Ukrainians currently living in Germany. Their age range is roughly 15-21. They have been a band for six years and have a lot of good original music. 🇺🇦
Second this! The Sixsters are very talented. Freeze the Fall is a fan of theirs too!🔥
The Maids and The Warning are both killer bands. I love that my 2 favorite bands are also good friends and fans of each other.
Everything is really just 2/2 if you think about it.
Yeah, her voice is pretty amazing. Everything is amazing, but her voice puts it over for me right now.
We told ya! LOL This band is going to be huge! My daughter and I have been part of their Patreon for a while now and like The Warning, they are also amazing humans. In fact, they let my daughter interview them! Keep going, they don't have a bad song!
As a huge Band-Maid fan, I started listening to a lot of The Warning after Show Them. This also got me into listening to all the Freeze the Fall music as well. We're lucky to be alive to enjoy all this good music.
Take a look at PaleNeØ for another cool new all female band! Try either aLIVE or the new one Moment.
i have been fortunate enough to have been a part of the kickstarter and have seen their growth in 1 year and i am super impressed. Evolve cover got me to their channel but the original One Left Standing live 2023 hooked me and been a fan ever since. i saw their talent and knew others needed to see/hear this band and now here we are 1 year later. Be Good To One Another and ROCK ON !!
Yes, these guys are so good. I really like their original music. So well crafted. They are great to see live, too. Managed to see them once, and hope to see them more in the near future.
Which show was that? I've seen them 4 times. Maybe we were at the same show.
@@RussInCanada in Vancouver in August. Were you there?
@@miltschmidt5068 Yessirree!
Love this raw emotional reaction and am very impressed with the way you played along to the song. I stumbled upon them almost exactly a year and have been engrossed by all things The Warning since. Seeing them twice this month. Can’t wait. Welcome to the Warning Army. Start researching them and reacting to them and I promise that I and a lot of TWA will be there to support you!
Aria calls that a 'broken riff'. How I finally managed to count it is, yes 7/8, but it's '1, 2, 3and, 4, 5, 6, 7'
Protip: go to their store and order the cd. You will not regret it.
This was recorded, engineered and mixed at Oodelally Studios. Video filmed by Two Six Films. They shot all 5 videos for the EP in a single 10 hour day, in a borrowed unheated 20°f barn.
Yeppp. 15, 16 and 17. Imagine starting your first high school band and coming up with this.
There is quite a bit of cross over in the fan bases of The Warning and FTF (The Warning Army and The Cold Front). Their most recent EP was funded by a Kickstarter campaign. I am one of many who thinks that these young new talented bands are bringing a new sound and sensibility to rock. I love it. Yeah, starting out in 7/4? Count me in. Thanks for giving FTF a listen!
Bonus points for including Freeze’s cover of TW’s Evolve
Hey!!! Thank you so much for reacting to Daughters of Witches! We are so grateful!
You guys kick butt, the future of rock is bright within you all. ~Be Excellent to Each Other 🤘🏼

From The Warning Army welcome to the best musical journey you ever knew existed. Greetings from México ❤️🇲🇽
“Only 3 you loose a little bit”………..Tell that to Cream (Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker), or Grand Funk Railroad.
"When I was 19, I was a screw-up in work boots!" Bwaaahaahaa!🤣 Welcome to the club bro! That was a long time ago for me, but yeah.. I probably could have broke into the music scene around that time, because I HAD the talent, just not the drive to focus on any one thing (mild ADHD actually). Anyway, I am so proud of these gals (The Warning sisters), I look on them as daughters (or even granddaughters in my case).😍 I contributed to their Patreon for several years, and one of their Kickstarter campaign's to raise money to tour Europe, before the pandemic hit, and before they got signed with Lava/Republic Records. Now, 4 albums, and several singles, and a hell of a lot of hard work later, they're on the path to global stardom! This meetup and collab with Band Maid was one of the highlights of their career so far, and I hope to see them get a return meetup with them in Mexico or the U.S. at some point! You'd be hard pressed to find a more talented, yet humble group of young ladies on the planet!😉👍👍👍
Cool man. Good reaction. Good words. You seem like a good dude. Cheers brother 🍺
The Japanese dub of the Simpsons is hilarious. Saiki watching the Simpsons and our fuwa fuwa rock princess trying to put cat sounds in BAND-MAID's music is priceless.
The mix is perfect, the bass is just loud enough to highlight what you are playing without over powering the song.
Great job on the cover of dust to dust 👍
These are two of my most favorite bands! Based on your review, you may also enjoy the Korean girl band, Rolling Quartz!
Thank you for correcting the MISA/Seattle story I keep seeing in comments of Band-Maid reactions. If only more people were like you and went to the source to find out the actual information. Keep it up - great videos lately, sir!! Nice bass cover, too! Also, great amusing Simpsons anecdote...
Great job with playing D2D. 🤘 Really enjoyed the video. 👍 Subbed for more. Grtz from The Netherlands
As a subscriber of yours, I would like to thank you for your fun, thoughtful, analytical reactions to BAND-MAID (my #1). I need to start watching your reactions to other artists. Again, thank you, Yo Mota.
And thank you for the kind words! It would help if I covered some other artists, I've been on a big BM kick lately.
Alejandra learned fingerstyle first and later learned how to use a pick. And she began at age 7. You mentioned her playing close to the bridge. One of the "fun facts" about Ale is she can rip an apple in two halves with her fingers. I don't know how often that comes in handy, but I find it an oddly interesting superpower. 😯💪
I knew her hand strength was above average if she is doing full sets playing around the bridge. That is a remarkable fun fact. I don't know if I should be scared or impressed. Maybe both?
Ale! 😎
I want to see what Kanami could do with that Meowdulator pedal.
I didn't know that was a real thing. I had to use this janky one octave online keyboard for my bit. That would have been so much easier ^_^
Before Yesterday was written by Hitoshi Okamoto. It's on Brand New Maid, along with Alone (as the last track), which was the first song that their management accepted from Kanami. Since then, I think it's been all Band-Maid writing, all the time.
FYI The video you referenced included nowhere near all of the BAND-Maid songs. Just a sampling of, I assume, some of his favorites.
Dang that is a lot of songs then.
@@YoMota That video had 69 songs. I have collected pro-shot videos for everything I can get my hands on. I'm up to 102 unique arrangements (some have acoustic versions), and I'm still missing some real bangers like hide-and-seek, Unfair Game, Flying High, and others. There are about 110 truly unique songs, but with alternate arrangements (acoustic, Band-Maiko) there are easily 135 or more unique variants. On another note, "I Still Seek Revenge" from Unseen World is one of the best bass songs I've ever heard IMO. No non-bootleg video of it on YT, though. FYI that whole album has a scorebook along with a CD of all songs with no vocals. I think every single one makes a pretty good instrumental track.
Just the logistics alone of getting a band from Mexico and Japan together, who met in the U.S. together in Japan with all the equipment. Just for a show is hard enough on its own. But for them do an all english song, and for it turn out as great as it did. is remarkable. I think these two bands really played off one another really well. The vocals drums bass and guitars meshed so good together. For all that to take place, is insanely difficult, but the ladies took it all in stride. And it looks like they became great friends during the process. I look forward to the next get together. The Warning already invited them to do another song with them in Mexico.
The capacity to perform at a high level with all of those variables you mentioned should be commended. Everyone involved did a really good job.
2 favorite rock bands right now.
The three of them never count. They grew up together and understand each other perfectly. A glance or a (lack of) noise from the other is enough for them. Calculating their age is easy: Dany was born in 2000, Pau two years later and Ale three more. Dany is 24, Pau 22, Ale 19. Foreign languages are unusual in Japan because the proportion of foreigners is so small. English speakers, or even fewer Spanish speakers, are rare. You can see that in Band-Maid, where only one speaks English. In Germany or Scandinavia it would have been easier.
I watch a lot of stuff from other music reactors and I gotta say I LOVE your style of making videos. Generally I get that little bit of that good parasocial feeling of listening to music with my friends from a regular reaction video, but this was something else. It feels like just hanging out and having fun with music. (Sorry if that sounded a bit creepy, I promise I'm not one of these weirdos that thinks the people he watches on the internet are their real friends 😅) I do appreciate this quite a bit. Thanks. I am also a big Faith No More fan as well. They (and all of Mike's projects really) shaped my music preferences way more than I realize probably.
Not at all! I appreciate you saying that.
I've yet to see BAND-MAID in person, but Saiki has to be one of the most charismatic lead singers I've seen. Re: the SPICE interview where Kanami talked about adding meows to "Unleash!!!!!", you forgot to add this part: "Saiki: Well, Akane and Misa got a really big kick out of it anyway." 😂 These ladies are entertaining without even trying 😊
Ya know I did mention it but I think I cut it for time...which sounds funny for a 25 minute video ^_^
Entertaining reaction. 👍
Thank you so much!
Next should be Disciple from the Pepsi center. Just go for it.😊
This is how the Dust to Dust video happened. I just went for it ^_^
good work on the bass!
Aw thank you!
MISA try to leave BAND-MAID before/after the 2016 Sakura-con, is a mistake. MISA was thinking of leaving the band at end of 2013 and early 2014 timeframe, and BAND-MAID had their first one-man (header-liner) show in February 2014, which the manager in article referenced.
I believe I did say that. Or I didn't. That happens to me sometimes. The original comment on the music video was what sent me down this path. That's how I ended up finding the other interviews. It's what made me think about what makes this band who they are.
