Was there ever a band like it - no egos, no pretence, just bloody brilliant at every thing they do. And they have a sense of fun. When Kanami, Misa and Miku surround the drummer Akane they are all pulling silly faces to put one another off! No one misses a beat. Just absolute talent.
The way Kanami's solo takes off after Akane's drumsolo, is out of this world. Reminds me of taking off on an incredibly fast motorbike, which I did many times. :-))
In a deleted JAWS scene, when chief Brody was on the boat & saw the shark, he said to Akane "You're gonna need a bigger hat". That's when she kicked him in the water :)
That's one great thing about Band-Maid... either you start by the newer songs and go back on the catalogue or you start in the middle and go forth and back or any way you start listening to Band-Maid, you will have the same result: it will always get better and better. So, until you know aaaaall their catalogue, you can be sure that there is a song you never heard before that is going to be as awesome as the ones you already know.
So many of us have said the very same thing. Band Maid are so unbelievably under recognized for the immense talent that they are. They should be on rock radio stations worldwide. But I believe their day is coming once the world gets back to some normalcy.
Band Maid has more fun than their audiences (if that's possible) my favorite parts are when she starts her solo Miku and Kanami are cheering here on and pumping their fists in the air. The second, is when she comes out of her solo she gives this big laugh all the time while she keeps perfect timing. I will continue to say they are the most adorable musical bad asses on the planet. I honestly think that people in the management Band Maid camp have hurt their popularity than helped. They still do not have accessible distribution for their content in the west. Also the companies that flag or strike UA-cam channels for streaming content for an up and coming band like Band Maid are not helpful. I know many people would probably disagree, but like it or not UA-cam has become the new word of mouth (especially during lockdowns). UA-camrs are influencers. I think that these record companies should spend about 10k and start sending UA-camrs direct content to review or download reactions. I guarantee if they had better distribution in the west and started openly pushing their content on UA-cam by the time things open up Band Maid will be well on their way to their goal of World Domination. If the suits in their camp don't remedy this. It will be impossible to achieve this.

Everyone is writing various things, and A little supplement. This is the history of BAND-MAID that I have roughly summarized. BAND-MAID was formed around spring to summer 2013. October / 2013 Hand-painted leaflet by drummer Akane, Band members were handing out the leaflets in Harajuku. They write "talented rock maid band". band-maid.up.seesaa.net/image/201320E6898BE4BD9CE3828AE38381E383A9E382B7_R-thumbnail2.jpg "Maid in Japan" Released January 8, 2014 Single "愛と情熱のマタドール" Released August 13, 2014 track 2 "Thrill" track3 "Summer Drive" youtube "Ai to Jounetsu no Matador" And, as they sought the direction of the band, they chose a harder rock direction, and for that reason, the first MV was shot instead of the single "愛と情熱のマタドール" , "Thrill" was selected.

From "Engadget Fes 2014 Winter" on November 24, 2014. This is a video of BAND-MAID during the slump, performing an acoustic live (unavoidably) in a small event space instead of a live house.

A solo concert at Nippon Budokan has the same meaning as a solo concert at Madison Square Garden in the United States in Japan. Raised by the company, the company provides songs, the company trains, the company promotes, the company collaborates with each media, many companies co-sponsor, many concerts at the large capacity Nippon Budokan or some Arena There are several groups that do. BABY-METAL is one of them. For them, it's just a big concert. However, BAND-MAID won the right to a solo concert at Nippon Budokan by pursuing their own music and continuing their live performances by facing the audience directly. Only with the efforts of the band. Starting from that leaflet in 2013. And now Unfortunately, the concert at Nippon Budokan has been cancelled. The world is in a difficult situation right now, but I pray for the success of BAND-MAID. I think the appeal of BAND-MAID is all about live performances. At BAND-MAID, the high ability of CALL & RESPONCE, which has been cultivated by continuing to play at a very close distance to the audience in a small live house, becomes an excellent performance and creates a wonderful space. And the live take of BAND-MAID where it is recorded is really excellent. In the studio take, the song is playful and gives a slightly excessive impression, but in the live, it is tight and clear, the members are tense with each other's techniques, yet relaxed, and it is wonderful to wrap the audience with happiness It creates a sound space. I also think BAND-MAID is currently the best live band. In that sense, I'd like you to listen to the 2017 or 2018 live I uploaded the link and then react to the next song, if you can. BAND-MAID's latest album and music video. "Unseen World" February 13 STREAMING apple, etc. 20th AMAZON MV "Manners" "Warning" "After Life" AND, Two bands that I like next to BAND-MAID. ua-cam.com/video/NfWrqbjJpEU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=NEMOPHILA ua-cam.com/video/E2hZDzJp9Pc/v-deo.html&ab_channel=UnluckyMorpheusofficial AND, If you like old school blues rock, ua-cam.com/video/jZf0MthDFH4/v-deo.html I'm sorry for my poor English.
Jimmy Page was at a show, he wanted to go back stage to meet Akane, He told her that she is the best drummer he has heard. There is a pic on line if you are are one to question that.
You definitely need to check out more of BAND-MAID. The way they are cranking out songs, the more you will fall behind in discovering and enjoying their music. The newest album released this year already has 3 music videos that are worth checking out. Then to top it off, they did a tribute to the fans by releasing a new song "About Us" that is not even in the new album. So, yeah looking forward to you to reacting to some more of phenomenal group.
You can tell when people become fans of this band, because they have a great big smile plastered to their face through the whole song, and I always love seeing people react to Freedom and Akane's solo. Here's a bit of trivia for you: During one live performance of Freedom (you can find a fancam of it somewhere) Miku sang the lyrics to the first verse instead of the second. I can't think of anyone who hasn't made that mistake during a show, myself included, so I just laugh and sympathize with her. But ever since then, one or the other of them will go up to Miku during the second verse and stare at her, to remind her to sing the right lyrics this time. So that bit where Kanami sits next to her? Yeah, that's what that was, hahahahah.
You can notice that this is not challenging for them to play at all. It's a happy "easy" song, they play it on almost every live show, with plenty of time to fool about. The new album though, that is different. It has chaos and madness in it. They made the songs difficult, each member was challenged. MISA said that she has to look at her hands while playing and might make mistakes when she's tipsy on the stage. That's unheard of.
Glad to see you're back on the Band-Maid diet! Another great reaction, as ever. Try their sublime, moving and technically brilliant jewel of a performance of their newest song (released a couple of weeks ago) 'About Us'. It's a thing of beauty and I know you'll appreciate it a lot. ua-cam.com/video/qicgVAxCYV8/v-deo.html . Hope to see you back on the Babymetal diet too soon!
Haha thanks Tony! Yes I left it too long. Had a couple of Babymetal videos in a row blocked so that kinda put me off but I'll give it another try soon.
From a technical point of view, one could perhaps tell that the song is not one of the newest from their catalogue. If I remember correctly, it even comes from the time when the girls didn't create the songs completely on their own. That's why I find it all the more amazing what they do with it live and especially how much fun all of them seem to have playing it. A really nice song to lift up the mood with the drum and guitar solo as an extra on top whose transition into each other I find simply brilliant. I've just had a quick look at the comments so far and I don't think anyone has mentioned yet that Akane has caught the attention of some bigger names in rock. At a concert I think in 2016, a certain Jimmy Page was standing in the audience and was so impressed by her that he asked for a conversation with the good girl after the show. When they broke the news to her, she thought it was a joke. Well, a joke that led to this picture » bit.ly/AkaneJimmyPage Rumour has it that in the conversation he told her that her way of playing reminded him a lot of Led Zeppelin's John Bonham. But even if that last part isn't true, I think it's remarkable enough that someone like Mr. Page notices her. Thanks for another video on Band-Maid and the support it gives to the girls. And thanks also for including my comment in this video, representing so many out there. I'm almost a little embarrassed. :) 【 'Our rock never dies ever, forever!' - Band-Maid 】
Hey there! Thank you very much! I was looking through the previous comments and yours stood out. Thanks for sharing that story about Jimmy Page, what a great photo! Imagine being on a fly on the wall for that. Love this band more and more each time. Cheers! 😄👍
hold your "this might be my favorite" line just yet. you've just witnessed a very small fraction of the treasure trove. dig deeper and you'll repeat that expression again and again. aand not to mention their latest output. aaand that rival band which rewrote the lyrics and retitled their songs and played them along with traditional instruments. welcome to the pigeon hole, by the way.
@@bazkeen ah youtube can be so annoying some times. I actually watched a little bit of that earlier. I love the content from the Dragonforce channel. 😂
It's ok if you don't do Band-Maid reactions every day. We need some time to adjust to normal people playing music, so we can appreciate all over again how insane this group really are. As someone who grew up in the 60's and 70's, I can say with growing confidence that this is the best rock band since the Beatles.
Was there ever a band like it - no egos, no pretence, just bloody brilliant at every thing they do. And they have a sense of fun. When Kanami, Misa and Miku surround the drummer Akane they are all pulling silly faces to put one another off! No one misses a beat. Just absolute talent.
CAUTION: Watching too many Band-Maid videos caused the Joker's face to freeze into a permanent smile.
It definitely wasn't frozen into a permanent smile by Arnold Scwarzeneggers acting ;)
The way Kanami's solo takes off after Akane's drumsolo, is out of this world. Reminds me of taking off on an incredibly fast motorbike, which I did many times. :-))
That transition from Akane's solo to Miku and then Kaname is so
fluid and spot on that no matter how many times i watch it is so
satisfying....
Their smiles are soooo infectious, I love it!
In a deleted JAWS scene, when chief Brody was on the boat & saw the shark, he said to Akane "You're gonna need a bigger hat". That's when she kicked him in the water :)
Hahaha I love it. 🤣🤣
Heck yeah!
@@tinyhato You would've kicked him in the water too, Tiny Hat, for suggesting a bigger hat :)
When Miku saw the shark, she screamed KAWAII, grabbed it's tail and took it home.
@@glenkelley6799 Lol. That's why JAWS smiles so much.😁
Band-Maid, making rock great again! Their obvious joy is infectious! Akane is on fire 🔥! Misa plays Black Cloud Private Reserve Black Smoker usually.
That's one great thing about Band-Maid... either you start by the newer songs and go back on the catalogue or you start in the middle and go forth and back or any way you start listening to Band-Maid, you will have the same result: it will always get better and better. So, until you know aaaaall their catalogue, you can be sure that there is a song you never heard before that is going to be as awesome as the ones you already know.
I have never seen a rock concert that makes people so happy.
They always make me happy！
Thank you from Japan！🤘🤓🤘
Great reaction. Love to see how much fun they have on stage. Making funny faces to each other. Makes the music even better. Love this band.
Thanks John! Yeah it's like watching best friends jamming out. So good.
That's MISA's custom Signature Black Cloud SG Precision 5 String Bass. It's not available to the public, but we can hope.
We can hope ❤
Ah nice! It's a beaut!
I believe it may be available in Japan as it posted on their website.
So many of us have said the very same thing. Band Maid are so unbelievably under recognized for the immense talent that they are. They should be on rock radio stations worldwide. But I believe their day is coming once the world gets back to some normalcy.
You can't watch or listen to a Band-Maid song without being made happy. Their joy is so infectious. Thanks!
The fact that she stayed in time within the beat of the song and poly rhythms over the top makes it even more impressive!
MISA!!! MISA!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃 this is Akane's time to shine
Band Maid has more fun than their audiences (if that's possible) my favorite parts are when she starts her solo Miku and Kanami are cheering here on and pumping their fists in the air. The second, is when she comes out of her solo she gives this big laugh all the time while she keeps perfect timing. I will continue to say they are the most adorable musical bad asses on the planet.

Welcome back to Band-Maid! Good to see you again.
Your right Band Maid always just makes me feel happy when listening to them. Watching them is even more visceral.
Everyone is writing various things, and A little supplement.
This is the history of BAND-MAID that I have roughly summarized.
BAND-MAID was formed around spring to summer 2013.
October / 2013 Hand-painted leaflet by drummer Akane, Band members were handing out the leaflets in Harajuku.
They write "talented rock maid band".
band-maid.up.seesaa.net/image/201320E6898BE4BD9CE3828AE38381E383A9E382B7_R-thumbnail2.jpg
"Maid in Japan" Released January 8, 2014
Single "愛と情熱のマタドール" Released August 13, 2014
track 2 "Thrill" track3 "Summer Drive"
youtube "Ai to Jounetsu no Matador"
And, as they sought the direction of the band, they chose a harder rock direction, and for that reason, the first MV was shot instead of the single "愛と情熱のマタドール" , "Thrill" was selected.
The MV for "Thrill" was officially uploaded in November 2014.
ua-cam.com/video/Uds7g3M-4lQ/v-deo.html&feature=emb_logo
However, the band is sluggish.
From "Engadget Fes 2014 Winter" on November 24, 2014.
This is a video of BAND-MAID during the slump, performing an acoustic live (unavoidably) in a small event space instead of a live house. Miku says, "Please remember just the name."
Still, you can see how high everyone's playing skills are.

2015, spring to summer
Kanami and Akane participate in "もちとちーず".
Perhaps they are valued for their musical talent by their agency and asked to participate in "もちとちーず".
And KANAMI and AKANE temporarily belonged to both of those two bands.
Kanami is also composing there.
ua-cam.com/video/WyWiYPE8qUY/v-deo.html&ab_channel=%E3%82%82%E3%81%A1%E3%81%A8%E3%81%A1%E3%83%BC%E3%81%9A

Suddenly, "THRILL" was a hit on the internet in April 2015, and the band has been energetically performing live throughout 2015, but without that "THRILL" hit,Kanami and Akane went to "もちとちーず" and BAND-MAID may have disappeared.
However, BAND-MAID held up.
And

The full video of these two concerts still remains on the Chinese video site (BILIBILI), which does not consider copyright.
It's currently not available at a fair price, so I think it's morally permissible to watch it on this site.

These two is very exelent live shows.
And
"WORLD DOMINATION" Released February 14, 2018.
BAND-MAID also toured the United States and Europe in 2018,2019. The concert venues were all small live houses with little capacity.
Many fancam videos have been uploaded to UA-cam, which record the appearance of a fun band who interacts with the audience at a close distance with a fulfilling and confident live performance by the band members' high performance skills.

And
band-maid is planning their first solo concert at Nippon Budokan in February.
A solo concert at Nippon Budokan has the same meaning as a solo concert at Madison Square Garden in the United States in Japan.
Raised by the company, the company provides songs, the company trains, the company promotes, the company collaborates with each media, many companies co-sponsor, many concerts at the large capacity Nippon Budokan or some Arena There are several groups that do. BABY-METAL is one of them.
For them, it's just a big concert.
However, BAND-MAID won the right to a solo concert at Nippon Budokan by pursuing their own music and continuing their live performances by facing the audience directly. Only with the efforts of the band.
Starting from that leaflet in 2013.
And now
Unfortunately, the concert at Nippon Budokan has been cancelled.
The world is in a difficult situation right now, but I pray for the success of BAND-MAID.
I think the appeal of BAND-MAID is all about live performances. At BAND-MAID, the high ability of CALL & RESPONCE, which has been cultivated by continuing to play at a very close distance to the audience in a small live house, becomes an excellent performance and creates a wonderful space. And the live take of BAND-MAID where it is recorded is really excellent.
In the studio take, the song is playful and gives a slightly excessive impression, but in the live, it is tight and clear, the members are tense with each other's techniques, yet relaxed, and it is wonderful to wrap the audience with happiness It creates a sound space.
I also think BAND-MAID is currently the best live band.
In that sense, I'd like you to listen to the 2017 or 2018 live I uploaded the link and then react to the next song, if you can.

I'm sorry for my poor English.
Thank you so much for your detailed information about wonderful Bandmaid.
Jimmy Page was at a show, he wanted to go back stage to meet Akane, He told her that she is the best drummer he has heard. There is a pic on line if you are are one to question that.
You definitely need to check out more of BAND-MAID. The way they are cranking out songs, the more you will fall behind in discovering and enjoying their music. The newest album released this year already has 3 music videos that are worth checking out. Then to top it off, they did a tribute to the fans by releasing a new song "About Us" that is not even in the new album. So, yeah looking forward to you to reacting to some more of phenomenal group.
Coming to America 2022!
You can tell when people become fans of this band, because they have a great big smile plastered to their face through the whole song, and I always love seeing people react to Freedom and Akane's solo.
Here's a bit of trivia for you: During one live performance of Freedom (you can find a fancam of it somewhere) Miku sang the lyrics to the first verse instead of the second. I can't think of anyone who hasn't made that mistake during a show, myself included, so I just laugh and sympathize with her. But ever since then, one or the other of them will go up to Miku during the second verse and stare at her, to remind her to sing the right lyrics this time. So that bit where Kanami sits next to her? Yeah, that's what that was, hahahahah.
Thanks for the trivia! That is so funny and now I have to watch it again. 😁
What did Miku the Almighty Pigeon do when she saw a pool of water?
She dove into it.
Haha.That's what you call "Plunging with style" :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 Of course, you know our Pigeon ;)
MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Bass is a Black Cloud Customs , private reserve , in the style of an SG .
Thanks Thomas!
🇩🇪🛩 😉
You can notice that this is not challenging for them to play at all. It's a happy "easy" song, they play it on almost every live show, with plenty of time to fool about.
The new album though, that is different. It has chaos and madness in it. They made the songs difficult, each member was challenged. MISA said that she has to look at her hands while playing and might make mistakes when she's tipsy on the stage. That's unheard of.

Miku's signature guitar has been announced by ZEMAITIS.
Greetings from Japan.
Nice reaction. Take care!
Great reaction!
Band-Maid are the happiest band of all times :-)
Akane has her mouth wide like that because she is plugged into the mains electricity.
Great reaction. Just subbed
Thanks! 🙂
So much more good stuff to come for you!
Glad to see you're back on the Band-Maid diet! Another great reaction, as ever. Try their sublime, moving and technically brilliant jewel of a performance of their newest song (released a couple of weeks ago) 'About Us'. It's a thing of beauty and I know you'll appreciate it a lot. ua-cam.com/video/qicgVAxCYV8/v-deo.html . Hope to see you back on the Babymetal diet too soon!
Haha thanks Tony! Yes I left it too long. Had a couple of Babymetal videos in a row blocked so that kinda put me off but I'll give it another try soon.
@@ThomFoolery1 Thanks for persevering! It must be a pain working on a reaction and then having it blocked.
................... Akane!!
Our analysis is very correct, you speak better than I think :D
Best female band
BAND-MAID has amazing ballads, too. Try Daydreaming (MV), and Wonderland (live).
Materia B17. Original and guitar version.
You have to react to live version of The Non-Fiction Days, Akane does another fantastic job, though it idn't a solo.
From a technical point of view, one could perhaps tell that the song is not one of the newest from their catalogue. If I remember correctly, it even comes from the time when the girls didn't create the songs completely on their own. That's why I find it all the more amazing what they do with it live and especially how much fun all of them seem to have playing it. A really nice song to lift up the mood with the drum and guitar solo as an extra on top whose transition into each other I find simply brilliant.
I've just had a quick look at the comments so far and I don't think anyone has mentioned yet that Akane has caught the attention of some bigger names in rock. At a concert I think in 2016, a certain Jimmy Page was standing in the audience and was so impressed by her that he asked for a conversation with the good girl after the show. When they broke the news to her, she thought it was a joke. Well, a joke that led to this picture » bit.ly/AkaneJimmyPage Rumour has it that in the conversation he told her that her way of playing reminded him a lot of Led Zeppelin's John Bonham. But even if that last part isn't true, I think it's remarkable enough that someone like Mr. Page notices her.
Thanks for another video on Band-Maid and the support it gives to the girls.
And thanks also for including my comment in this video, representing so many out there. I'm almost a little embarrassed. :)
【 'Our rock never dies ever, forever!' - Band-Maid 】
Hey there! Thank you very much! I was looking through the previous comments and yours stood out. Thanks for sharing that story about Jimmy Page, what a great photo! Imagine being on a fly on the wall for that. Love this band more and more each time. Cheers! 😄👍
hold your "this might be my favorite" line just yet. you've just witnessed a very small fraction of the treasure trove. dig deeper and you'll repeat that expression again and again. aand not to mention their latest output. aaand that rival band which rewrote the lyrics and retitled their songs and played them along with traditional instruments.
welcome to the pigeon hole, by the way.
Misa uses Black Smoke only, This is a Private Reserve model not a Gibson
It is strange that the scraps that cannot make an effort evaluate it.
There is only Band Maid.
Great reaction Thomas. My other comment disappeared 🤔🤔
Cheers Basil! I didn't see anything. I think youtube blocks them sometimes. Were you sharing a link?
@@ThomFoolery1 Yep🙄
It was just a fun link where Herman Li from DragonForce auditions for Band-Maid. Quite funny
@@bazkeen ah youtube can be so annoying some times. I actually watched a little bit of that earlier. I love the content from the Dragonforce channel. 😂
@@ThomFoolery1 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Your a bit late to the party but great reaction 👏🔥💯👍. Have you done the band NEMOPHILA yet?
Thanks Stephen! I haven't. Any suggestions?
@@ThomFoolery1 SORAI, OIRAN, FIGHTER
It's ok if you don't do Band-Maid reactions every day. We need some time to adjust to normal people playing music, so we can appreciate all over again how insane this group really are. As someone who grew up in the 60's and 70's, I can say with growing confidence that this is the best rock band since the Beatles.
