"Bestie" was composed by Mike Einziger of the rock group Incubus specifically for Band-Maid to record. Mike met Akane backstage at the Pointfest Festival in St. Louis last year. He asked where the milk was kept for the artists, and Akane showed him and struck a conversation. A fancam from Band-Maid performance showed Mike standing next to Band-Maid's guitar tech and having a conversation with him during the performance. He was so excited by their performance he recorded part of it for himself. The rest of the story is history. It's amazing how a small act of kindness can lead to great things. Miku wrote the lyrics as a heartfelt tribute to her bandmates, her "besties". Beautiful setting, sound, and images from these VERY talented young women. Band-Maid has proven time and again that they ARE NOT genre specific. They are so versatile they write and record any kind of rock music.
Hey, Dogman -- Beside Bestie... Daydreaming, About Us, Anemone, Endless Story, Memorable, PAGE, Wonderland, Awkward, Start Over, Mirage, At the Drop of a Hat and Smile all offer up an unbelievable range of mid-tempo songs from the greatest hard rock band on the planet - Band-Maid.
I don't know as much about Band Maid as I do Lovebites or even The Warning, but what I have heard I've liked. These ladies are definitely worth a listen 👍
[Bestie, co-written by Michael Einziger of Incubus.] MISA's playing and bass tone are setting new standards... and Akane's drumming is so in-the-pocket and distinguishable... and Kanami's solo is Daydreaming masterful! The recording and mix are as enjoyable as the song and beautiful MV! Miku’s English lyrics (I bet with Saiki and Mikey-chan's influence) are heartfelt. "I can't look into your eyes." Is Band-Maid a band of fashion-forward, trend-setting Besties? 💞 Thx, Mikey & Band-Maid!

It was a collaboration. Mike contributed the opening guitar Riff.

Angel-Maids 😇! Beautiful video! Spring time music, light and fun! Love the ladies in white!
I suggest the acoustic version of the song Catharsis to see yet another side of this band.
👍
What happened there is called typical Band-Maid ending .....Lol! I wish is slowly faded with that dirty toned riff....
How is Agnes?
