Yeah, drummer Tamu Murata is legit one of the best anywhere. Serious fusion chops alongside a fantastic feel for metal. She has a great symbiosis with bassist Haraguchi-san, too...together they've been nicknamed the "Laughing Thunder."
They bring hope and light into Metal. I already thought, "that was it", when I was used to all the elder, sweating and hairy male groups. 😉Then I got to know Lovebites' and Nemophila's music and joy, and that lifted my spirits. 😁
Nemophila - "baby blue eyes" flower, "Rurikarakusa" in Japanese; grows in N-America and is appreciated in Japan (see "Hitachi Seaside Park"). The band was formed in 2019, originally as a "session" brought together by... Mayu - the vocalist (ex- Lipstick band); Haraguchi-san - bass, backing vocals, was Mayu's friend and colleague from Music College (ex - Holderlins band); Tamu Murata - drums, backing vocals, one the most respected session musician in Japan (countless bands), with also her own original carrier; she's also the wife of Akira Yamaoka, musician/composer, known especially for his videogames OSTs, in particular for "Silent Hill"; Saki (ex - "Mary's Blood" band for a decade, and others), she's a "young sacred monster" in J-metal) guitar, backing vocals, and... Hazuki (Li-sa-X / KOIAI bands) - guitar, backing vocals; both, Saki and Hazuki have a lot of experience. Nemophila made an amazing fandom impression during the pandemic, thru UA-cam clips...so far about 50 Western/Japanese awesomely bonkers covers, and over 30 original freakishly good songs (singles, EPs, 2 albums - "Revive" and "Seize The Faith", 3rd album "Evolve" will be released in January or so).

Welcome Nemo fella...amazing songs coming...Nemophila are: Mayu: vocals, the Kamaleon Saki: lead guitar (killer guitars, black hair, one of the best in Japan) Hazuki: lead guitar (Ibanez guitar, brown hair, one of the best in Japan) Haragushi-san: Bass, amazin amazing Murata Tamu: drumms...well..you heard her... Recommendations: Oiran, Seize the Faith, Dissention, Zen regards from Chile
Oh yes, you made the right suggestions. 😁Especially "Zen" is one of their amazing _masterpieces_ . Simply face-melting. Anything they touch, turns into gold anyway, it seems to me. I have found no weak song from them yet. What an achievement. Like Lovebites, Nemophila belong to my personal favorites in Metal.
Don’t watch too many reactions but the this came up recommended, so I said why not, out of all the bands coming out of Japan these ladies are by far the most diverse, they literally are chameleons of music. But when they get heavy they go f#####g heavy. Their drummer Tamu is one the best anywhere Haraguchi on Bass is wicked. Saki and Hazuki are a total contrast in styles on guitar but work so well together. And then there is the Firecracker, no wait stick of Dynamite on vocals, Mayu! I’m sure you will get plenty of recommendations for songs of theirs, and honestly you can’t go wrong with anything they have done. Adabana and Zen are my personal favorites, but like so many people when I seen their video for Dissension I was an instant fan!
That drummer is none other than Murata Tamu aka "the smiling thunder". Her double-pedal work is other-worldly. I genuinely want to know what her 100m and 200m sprint times are, because she has got very fast feet and incredible stamina. Check out her double-pedal work on this video: ua-cam.com/video/NGOf89hfbD8/v-deo.html Mind you, she kept that pedal speed for about 4 consecutive minutes. Murata Tamu is yet another one of those beasts on the drums from Japan, who does it while smiling and looking "kawai". Just an incredible talent, who is also married with two children.
Thanks for the great reactions! You are right, they are the strongest and most brutal teddy bears on the planet. If you continue to dig them, I hope you will check out the "ADABANA" music video. Thanks again!
OMG... "Adabana"... The _crown jewel_ in Nemophila's treasure chamber, in my opinion. *THE* Metal song. A unique masterpiece. They just know how to do it.
They are basically an accidental supergroup founded as a backing band for the singer for 1 event, but they decided it was too good for a one off band. They have diverse musical origins (though a lot of metal) so they can and will play anything (to the point where they are known for their covers). They are generally heavier than Lovebites but can easily go softer than Band Maid. They are kind of related to Lovebites (both bands have an ex-Destrose member), they have been seen together, and there are a few friendships there; as such a tour/show of Lovebites/Nemophila is possible which their fans would love (their fan bases overlap).
Try the song Zen live from Nemophila, it’s my favorite one they do. Non stop rock. You have reacted to 2 favorite bands now. The Warning and now Nemophila.
Welcome to Nemophila. Welcome to the badass female Japanese Rock scene. If you haven't already, Band-Maid, Hanabie, Love Bites, Gacharic Spin, Baby Metal...so many more.
If you are interested in more Japanese metal check out "HANABIE. - We Love Sweets" If you haven't heard them they will surprise you. They are heavier then Nemophila and a lot of fun!. You will not be disappointed. They are probably the heaviest out of the current female fronted metal bands coming out of Japan. Highly recommended.
The members of nemophila are musicians from different bands. They are all excellent musicians. And nemophila is a very unique and diverse band, with various genres of music appearing in their catalog. I recommend《oiran》live(recent upload)as the next!🤘🏻🌸🤘🏻
Trust me, musically this is still one of their more relaxing songs. 🤭 Mayu on the mic is a beast, but she can also mesmerize you with her voice in the next moment. The guitar duo of Hazuki and Saki is one of the best I know right now, and Haraguchi-san on bass together with Tamu on drums is nothing less than a force (Tamu is also one of the most respected and sought-after drummers in Japan). Check out their MV for 'Adabana' and I promise you'll agree! :) _____________________ _"Sometimes we laugh because we're sad or to hide our frustration"_ - from *Gacharic Spin* -「 I Wish I 」 🎶✨
Great reaction Man.. You have to do more Nemophila... Tamu on drums is a legend, also plays xylaphone, piano, keyboards, guitar, bass and saxaphone, and is also a mom of two children under 5.. The twin leads Saki abd Hazuki are off the chain and Haraguch san on bass is a thunder box.. Mayu is just from another planet vocally as you will find out the more you watch and listen.. If you want heavy do dessension mv or Zen live.. If you dare?? They also just did cover of Master of puppets!! their down tuned 7's give it such a different sound it's awesome.. Best wishes to you from France
"Zen" is one of their _masterpieces_ , in my opinion. I do not like continual growling actually, but Mayu does it in a way that I find amazing. Mayu growls "meaningful", in my opinion, anyway. I heard many male Metal singers growl, and could never stand it. But Mayu is different.
@@jawosammadennhier7062 Couldn't of put it better myself.. I never could stand growling in bands, it was an instant turn off but something clicked with Mayu she has a certain charisma and such a range I am mesmerised by her.; She one of the most amazing vocalits I have ever heard..
Nemophila.. Lovebites.. Asterism... Unluky Morpheus Galneryus Jupiter Band Maid These bands are my last love in rock or metal, and all from Japan. Love your reactions. Hope you love them too: They have much more amazing music you can listen or react to. Please, do another LOVEBITES reaction (Any LIVE song) or react to ASTERISM (dawn is a great song, live best)
After leaving rock band Lipstick, vocalist Mayu was looking to form a backing band to support her at a live session on August 22, 2019. He contacted his former classmate and bassist Haraguchi-san, and the two recruited drummer Tamu Murata through magazines and website postings. Mayu met Mary's Blood guitarist Saki through a mutual friend, and Saki in turn introduced them to Disqualia guitarist Hazuki. Feeling that this lineup was too good to play just once, the musicians decided to form a real band. According to Murata, Saki was initially only going to act as the group's supervisor. It was after she decided to join as a member, that Murata decided to join as well.
Thank you for the reaction--Nemophila is amazing. I've heard BAND-MAID live, and want to see Nemophila live, whenever I can. Subscribed! And, if you're leaning this direction: I'll put in a suggestion for "We Love Sweets" by Hanabie. ("Hah-nah-bee-ay") MV is the starting place.
This band has great songs and I hope the next one you do is RISE. They are also renowned for their covers. Check out the four covers they have done recently they are bringing out an EP with one new song. The drummer has 2 children and the song LIFE is the rest of the band welcoming her back from maternity leave. The singer also has a child. These are the only women in the world who look more adorable than their own children. This is a very pretty band I'm sure you will agree. CHANGE THE WORLD is not a heavy song but it's a great song that I'm sure you will enjoy. For something completely insane Check out the band DOGMA. Try FORBIDDEN ZONE or FATHER I HAVE SINNED. I'm a Catholic it probably appeals to me more than you but just have a look.
nemophila has alot of great music like Rise Music Video, Adabana Music Video, Hynosis Music Video, Night Flight Music Video but they also do alot of covers like Linkin Park Given Up, Iron Maiden Aces High and The Trooper, Panterra Walk, AC DC Whole Lotta Rosie Skid Row Youth Gone Wild and Kiss Detriot Walk City please let me know what you think
You don’t know this yet but Haraguchi-san the bassist my future wife XD 🤣 she a legend bassist one of the best in the world 🌎 NEMOPHILA ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER! Cheers 🍻 🤟🤟🤟🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
Yeah, drummer Tamu Murata is legit one of the best anywhere. Serious fusion chops alongside a fantastic feel for metal. She has a great symbiosis with bassist Haraguchi-san, too...together they've been nicknamed the "Laughing Thunder."
Highly recommend their track HYPNOSIS, has strong middle eastern influence/sound
Love these women,insanely skilled musicians
They bring hope and light into Metal. I already thought, "that was it", when I was used to all the elder, sweating and hairy male groups. 😉Then I got to know Lovebites' and Nemophila's music and joy, and that lifted my spirits. 😁
They got many more surprises

NEMOPHILA is the new heavy metal thunder ⚡️🤟🏻⚡️
Try the song Zen live from Nemophila, it’s my favorite one they do. Non stop rock. You have reacted to 2 favorite bands now. The Warning and now Nemophila.
They say it "Neh-Moe-fill-ah" btw.
Nemophila's motto is, "Live fluffy, play hard as hell." This isn't even their hardest song (not the softest either).
🎸🎸🎸🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Welcome to Nemophila. Welcome to the badass female Japanese Rock scene. If you haven't already, Band-Maid, Hanabie, Love Bites, Gacharic Spin, Baby Metal...so many more.

One of my favorite bands from Japan, and this wasn't even their heaviest. Try "Enten" or "Zen" "Adabana" is also a great one that goes pretty hard.
