    I was really so excited and happy to record this vid, and as always they just NEVER disappoint. Please consider to buy this album/dvd to support them, they really deserve it !
    Also I didn't talked much about the genius of KANAMI, this song writing was just mind-blowing and her solo were so enjoyable/catchy as always, she is so special !
    In any case I spent more time to edit the video this time, I really want this channel to become a music appreciation place and not just a "basic" reaction channel where I say " wow, amazing, see you soon" and without any editing. I have so many ideas for this channel on top of reaction directly related to our favorite bands. If we grow it together enough I would be able to challenge concept that are very rare on UA-cam, so please consider to subscribe and let's keep in touch !
    Thanks a lot to all of you, BAND MAID and you guys are really worth the time I spend to do edit and try to improve each videos :)
    Please let me know any point you wish me to change or implement, and of course looking forward to hear about new Japanese bands to react to !

Now they are writing, composing and arranging all the songs. 35 songs have been released on their official UA-cam, all of which are killer songs.

    This is by far my favorite instrumental from them! I like Onset but i feel this one flows so much better musically and is heavier which i like.
    Miku does a lot and is the heart and soul of the band! She does an amazing job on stage AND outside the stage.
    When Covid slows down and they can tour abroad again Band Maid will explode in popularity, i love the direction they took in this new album.
    Thanks for checking them out! Stay safe!

    Enjoyed your reaction. Have you heard the Band Maid instrumental "Don't Be Long" ? Take the advice from the title. It was released with the 'Different' single, and there are a few live performance around on YTube. Talent in the Japanese Rock/Metal scene runs deep, and a long way back. Plenty of suggestions to come!

    Great to see the group in line and well lit. You can see how well they play and how great they look. You have to be a musician of the highest order to do Kanami's compositions justice and both Misa and Arkane take care of their own arrangements now. Kanami is a genius and a true musician in every sense. In every area including giving their audiences true value they are an order of magnitude above any other group on the planet. Viva Band Maid

    dude... that's a very nice introduction to your new channel.
    "Band-Maid" is my fav. band, and it's been this way since 2014 (since "Thrill" MV, but the "Real Existence" MV made me stay). So, yeah, I don't know... you probably binged trough most of their stuff already. So I don't know which ones to recommend... In the end there are A LOT fan-cams or behind the scenes stuff for Band-Maid worth seeing.
    "Without holding back" was performed first a couple of years ago. It was written shortly (~ months apart) after "Onset". It was performed live a couple of times, but only in Japan. As filming is not permitted in japan - and japanese are used to it and DON'T do it - we never had a recording available (there was one, with horrible audio/video), but we knew it existed. In their oversea shows Band-Maid played "Onset". But on the US-tour they debuted and played the new instrumental "Don't be long" for all 5 shows they did. Shortly after the release of "Different" MV, Kanami and Miku said in the interview, that it was written as a practice piece for Miku specifically, to get her ready for "Different" (and "Unseen World" as the extension) - so they used the US-tour also for that :D
    "Without holding back" finally got an official release as part of the Special Edition "Unseen World"... Sadly, no version of UW is "perfect", all of them include something others don't, but also miss something else instead...
    Herman Li (from Dragonforce) had Miku and Kanami on his stream some weeks ago. They played "Without holding back" afterwards, with Herman improvising his parts. You can watch the jam session part on Dragonforce yt-channel. But the whole interview was just GREAT
    "Go Nuts" is still not officially released, but it's likely it will be released in a more "polished" form some time in the future (like "Don't be long" - the US-tour 2019 and the version on "Different"-CD are ... different)
    But enough about Band-Maid (for now), you asked for other recommendations.
    I looked a little on your channel. "Lovebites" and "Band-Maid" as your videos so far. And the playlists give some clues.
    Babymetal, LiSA, Mondo Grosso...
    Berserk and "Shenmue" OST - NICE, dude! hahaha
    hmmm... I don't know.
    The - imo (!!! please don't kill me...) - most influential bands in recent times (like 15-20 years, maybe) in japan
    "Maximum The Hormone" - defined a complete generation. Nao (the drummer) is probably the most influential female in japanese rock
    "Scandal" - *THE* all-female band. The one that started it all. Maybe not the very first one, but the first reeeeally successful one. Very pop-punkish, but catchy af
    "Destrose" - the unsuccessful "Scandal" in heavy-metal. The band itself was not successful. BUT the musicians and their project after "Destrose" was done... you know "Lovebites" already. "Mary's Blood" and "Nemophila" with Saki. And there are a couple more... In contrast to "Scandal" and "Band-Maid" they changed their members pretty frequently (thats not a good sign for a band ;) - just look at the huge former band-member list...
    The amount of women in j-rock and j-metal is just :D
    the amount of all-female bands could be due to the huge success of "K-On!" (anime, really good one) and "Scandal"
    maybe a couple (unusual) ones:
    TRiDENT - Continue (yeah, pretty known because of their former drummer Junna)
    ua-cam.com/video/azQVVhMUz58/v-deo.html
    Polkadot Stingray - TELECASTER STRIPES (be careful on that one; they block videos; it's "Warner" japan, afair)
    ua-cam.com/video/3ad4NsEy1tg/v-deo.html
    Brats - Kimarigoto (Rei from "Ladybaby", pretty good, struggling to be successful)
    ua-cam.com/video/73HxSYyXhnQ/v-deo.html
    Everything Fuki is doing, as well as associated bands - "Unlucky Morpheus", "Garhaic Spin", "Galneryus" etc etc
    oh, and "BiSH" of course, as well as their solo stuff (Mondo Grosso x Aina the End :D)
    Frederic - "oddloop" (this is more "indie hipster", but damn catchy; listen once - and you will be responsble for like +100 views on that already absurdly high view counter yourself)
    ua-cam.com/video/PCp2iXA1uLE/v-deo.html
    other hipster-style catchy af band would be "Necry Talkie" ie
    I would also like to point to two japanese Pop-Singers, if you don't know them already:
    Meiko Kaji - her songs and movies. If you've seen "Kill Bill" you've heard some of her. The movies, her OST-songs ... it's "Enka" mixed with 70s pop. (Miku was into "Enka" since childhood and you could argue Saikis singing style is influences as well)
    Ayumi Hamasaki - one of the most influential j-pop artists in "recent" times (say, 2000 - now). She is the one Saiki and Miku were talking about in the "After Life" making-.of video (more like mentioned, because Miku wrote "Ayu" on the board - you know she is "important" if that's all it takes to recognize her for both of them XD)
    (no, I'm not asking for "reaction" videos to them; just check their work out for yourself - with your channel name etc. I think you might find it interesting)

      My family situation doesn't allow me to do more that 2 vid a week, and actually at the moment 1 video a week is basically my max if I want to keep to quality on editing (And not just simply record in one take like my 2 first videos)

      thanks for reading :) I have a tendency to write longer comments than initially intended - nobody likes to read them (tldr), this is the youtube comment section XD
      to be honest - the Berserk and Shenmue OST in your playlists kinda encouraged me for a longer one... With all the j-rock and metal talk... these are *chefs kiss* And you have no idea how much Shenmue 1/2 (well, not the 3rd one XD) played in my life - learned to properly program and 3D graphics because of that hahahaha
      Berserk, the Golden Arc, is something, everybody should experience imo. I'm not into fantasy at all - but this one blew my mind
      Back on topic:
      don't worry, I'm sure that some of the bands I mentioned are going to be covered. These aren't exactly unknown underdogs of japan. I haven't mentioned a couple of the BIG ones (X-Japan, One Ok Rock, King Gnu, ...) - you WILL get them recommended to you sooner or later, 100%
      Of the bands I provided links to... - NONE of them is *metal*. I'm not a metalhead, have a sweet spot for "too much metal". Band-Maids "Rinne" is close to that line. "Nemophila" is pretty much on the line - I like them a lot, but it's basically as much as I'm going to accept XD "Asterism" slips beyond that line - BUT it's an instrumental only band, no vocals at all - LOVE it. Not into power-metal at all - so I'm not praising bands like "Dragonforce" or "Lovebites". Don't have anything against them (I see the talent) - just not for me. Would never sh*t on these bands either in comments/forums. Highly appreciate Herman Li since he started streaming (his DMCA case on twitch and their "Write a --- song in 10 minutes" are hilarious) - you don't have to be a fan of his music, to be a fan of him as person
      The links above are bands in the more punk, funk, jazz, pop-rock genres. Most will recommend "heavier" bands on "Band-Maid" reactions (-> more the metal side), I'm trying the opposite. Band-Maid is very ... broad ... with the styles in their music.
      I doubt you will actually get a lot of views for reacting to any of them... So, pace it out XD
      > My family situation doesn't allow me to do more that 2 vid a week, and actually at the moment 1 video a week is basically my max if I want to keep to quality on editing (And not just simply record in one take like my 2 first videos)
      You're french, but live in japan. Excuse me for asking (and don't answer if you don't want to)
      Work related? Is your family with you in Japan? Is it for a longer time? You do speak (at least a little) japanese in the end of the video...
      it's all fine - your channel, your pace.
      I wouldn't even start a yt channel - I'm just too busy irl with work and such ;)

    nice that you mentioned Miku and her learning to play guitar after forming
    the band . Kanami senpai has taught her well :) Miku has an impressive

Misa and Akane are featured a lot on Unseen World 🌎! You need to check out the Herman Li of Dragon Force audition to Band-Maid for for a job, Kanami and Miku play this song and Herman plays into it, really great! It's from his live twitch steam and is on UA-cam! You give a musical genius like Kanami a year to write songs and Unseen World is the result, Po!

Above all, and thanks for this mention, Miku has really become an irreplaceable pillar in the whole construct of Band-Maid over the years. What this little pigeon does is really worth all the honour and can not be respected enough. 🕊️
    'Onset' is still special because of the video and the energy of the live feeling, but for me on the first place of their instrumentals ranks this song here and is followed by 'Don't be long'. :)

    • @Equilibrium2903
      @Equilibrium2903 3 роки тому +4

      @@Yotanou I wouldn't call it really different. But in the normal version the mix is a bit questionable in my opinion. Hiding a lot of the instrumental touches and skills. Some of them I only noticed after listening to the instrumental, thats how far in the background they are mixed in the vocal version. Definitely give it a try, most people I talked to prefer the instrumental as well. It is easily on par with "Onset" and "without holding back" as far as instrumentals go.

      @w.b.562 3 роки тому +3

      I would agree. The instrumental versions of all the songs that were not written as "instrumentals" are worth checking out. You will miss the Saiki/Miku vocals obviously - a *huge* part in their songs, it's like missing 1-2 complete layers. But it shows the "touches" in the music way more clearly, like Equilibrium2903 said. It also shows how much the vocal melody actually changes their songs (how the f is Miku even writing lyrics XD; that Kanami gives, and that the vocals change in the flow is really cool to see)
      but, hey, these are not officially released on their channel - you know that it might mean to your youtube channel...
      (but these videos are worth checking out for sure, whether you'll put them on your channel or not)

Thank you for reacting to Band-Maid, the best hardrock band in existence if not ever to exist. IMHO they are the best band ever.

    The Japanese ladies are really leading the way with rock/ metal music today! Another band I’ve recently found is HAGANE. They describe themselves as “a harmonic metal band with high tone vocals and powerful music harmony”. They definitely have a “prog” element to their sound and are well worth checking out. Thanks for your great reactions 👍🤘ua-cam.com/video/4BOJkWJ7w34/v-deo.html

    Great reaction man! Are you French? You're accent sounds like it 😄
    Actually, if you have seen the last livestream, you already have heard this song because BAND-MAID played it between "Rinne" and "Sayonakidori".
    "without holding back" is my favorite instrumental by them but "onset" is really close behind. "Don't be long" is great too.
    You have a lot of japanese rock/metal bands to react to. Here is a list of some I really like: DOLL$BOXX, NEMOPHILA, Maximum the hormone, Unlucky Morpheus, ASTERISM, Sokoninaru, HANABIE.
    Thank you 🙏🏻🤘🏻

    I bet Miku could never of dreamt she'd be playing rhythm guitar in such a talented band..Singing was her dream...but playing rhythm guitar?.....Shows how much she wants the band to succeed to become backing vocals as such and to learn the guitar well enough to compliment the other members... Other bands take note..put your ego's aside..and play for the fun and for the fans..not for your ego.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of Japanese rock / metal. I see you are already familiar with Lovbites and Band-Maid, two fantastic bands in their genre. And there are more. Just want to mention a few other of my favorites. Trident, Wagakki Band, Babymetal, Unlucky Morphius, DollSbox, Ado, Aldios. All worth listening to. If you are interested in Japanese culture, take a walk down Wagakki Street. It is a mix of Japanese traditional instruments and modern instruments that play good rock. Very pleasant sound.

    I would like to recommend a Japanese band "Tokyo Jihen" (東京事変 or Incidents Tokyo) and the founder Sheena Ringo (椎名林檎). Sheena Ringo made her debut in 1998 and has been one of the most popular female musicians in Japan since then for more than 20 years. She founded Tokyo Jihen in 2003. They have been a big influence on young musicians in Japan. One of them is Miku from Band-Maid. Miku knew them in her high school student and got into them. That was why she founded Band-Maid as a "cool band".

    • @kenyakato9154
      @kenyakato9154 3 роки тому

      Their music cover so many variety of genres including rock, punk, alternative, jazz, Bossa Nova, and so on.
      I pick up some:
      東京事変 - 「歌舞伎〜OSCA」 from Spa & Treatment
      Tokyo Jihen - "Kabuki - OSCA" from Spa & Treatment
      two songs from a live performance at a live tour "Spa & Treatment" in 2007. The first song "Kabuki" was made for introduction on the band members. I guess Miku watched their live performance for the first time in this concert tour.
      東京事変 - 「電波通信」 from ウルトラC
      Tokyo Jihen - "Denpa Tsushin" from Ultra-C
      live performance in 2010, rock
      東京事変 - 「女の子は誰でも」 from Discovery
      Tokyo Jihen - "Onnanoko-ha Dare-demo" from Discovery
      live performance in 2011, swing jazz
      東京事変 - 選ばれざる国民 from ニュースフラッシュ
      Tokyo Jihen - Erabare-zaru Kokumin from newsflash
      live performance at their latest on-line concert this year, prog rock
      The English title is "The Lower Classes".
      [자막] 도쿄지헨 - 모 도민~BB.QUEEN(東京事変 - 某都民~BB.QUEEN)
      two songs, "Bo-Tomin(某都民)" and "BB.QUEEN" performed at a concert "SOCIETY OF THE CITIZENS" in 2008.
