    They do love to put on a show, all the members are great performers as well as being very talented musicians.
    These three represent the contemporary side of Wagakki Band. Machiya on guitar and also the composer, Asa on bass and the drummer goes by the name of Wasabi, incidentally he has his own UA-cam channel which is quite entertaining if you want to study his technique more closely

    The drummer's name is "Sasaki Akira" better known as Wasabi. The youngest member of the Wagakki band.
    You should check out the drum battle between Wasabi and Kurona.
    There are two good one from Daishinnenkai 2018 and one from Daishinnenkai 2022 available

    There is a certain irony, that these three could play on a plain stage with simple lighting and blow the majority of those 70's groups out of the water.

    For me Japan has always been a hotbed for music, they take what the world has done and then perfect it in there own unique way,
    You only have to look at all the underground jazz clubs in Tokyo, not to mention casiopea and how they pushed things forward,
    Add to that bands like ningen isu, band maid, baby metal, dir en grey, x Japan,ZZZs, maximum the hormone etc etc they never miss
    Before UA-cam I found most my music through anime credits but now the world has opened up we all get to find it with a few clicks

      Oh and you will LOVE Japan, I have been 5 times now and haven’t even scratched the surface, the live music scene is amazing, music everywhere. We once went to a curry house in shinjuku and they apologised because it was a live music night, that night was a New Orleans style big band set up and it was probably the best show I have ever seen while eating a curry,
      They were so passionate and excited to meet some UK peeps enjoying there stuff

    People like to throw around Baby Metal as 'the' Japanese band but I prefer these people 100%. From the classic Japanese instruments and style mixed with an incredible knowledge of their instruments to the fact this is a 'superstar' band which grew around the vision of a single musician. Plus no Loli Goth.

      I also love WGB a lot. They have such a diverse range of instruments, both modern and traditional, and they are all masters of their craft. And it doesn't hurt to have the best frontwoman on the planet, who is, to me, right at the top of the mountain globally vocally, with only Adele being close to her. Yuko is outstanding no matter what she does, jazz, pop, rock, shigin molded throughout all their performances and the addition of traditional dance routines to bring out the true beauty of music. And that's the problem with today's "popular" music, there is no real beauty, it's all very superficial and banal.

    Until recently, Japanese artists had a language barrier and the Japanese domestic market was too big, so they were not actively selling overseas, so most of the artists are not known outside of Japan, so there are still great finds.
    please,discover more Japanese music. I don't know if it suits your taste…maybe you already know…l recommend
    ◉“ One OK Rock ” very popular with foreigners. They have a lot of songs, but at first.“W e are” Especially the live version is popular to watch . l hope you enjoy watching Japanese live video!
