Seriously, this there any other band this versatile? From metal to pop-rock all while creating unique compositions. innovative playing and constantly interesting arrangements and vocal melodies - they stand alone in their breadth of excellence. Remarkable!! 🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼
In case you didn't know, Mat & Chels: Kanami, the lead guitarist, also writes the songs; Miku, the 2nd guitarist, writes the lyrics; Saiki, the vocalists, usually directs and has the final say on many decisions; Akane (A-Ka-Nay) is one of the best rock drummers in the business with her relentless drive, fluid dynamics and the kick. And MISA is rather unique with her alternating pick & slap style with up & down (the neck) runs that not only drive the songs, but adds a counter lead to Kanami's main riffs and solos. But you're right guys. Band-Maid has so much talent, personality and creativity that we're lucky to have such a prolific and joyful band (over 100 songs) in our lives. If you haven't yet, try to catch them live!
Well said. Incredible performers. Their song writing is uncanny. They know just what to do and when to make a song super catchy and memorable. True artists and they are only getting better with time.
Memorable. So true. I'd listen to bands who are insanely good (technically better than band-maid), but so forgettable and all their songs sound the same, so I stop listening to them after 2-3 songs that I might not remember anyway.
@@lurkmerchant Very, very true. I have so much music on my computer that I hardly, if ever listen to anymore. I go back to the stuff that I love that isn't done anymore. Rock from the late sixties and early seventies. That is until Band Maid came along. Now I am re-listening over and over again to all of their songs, new and old. I try to keep an open mind about new music but honestly I know what I like. And it is Band Maid.
This song works great as an instrumental as well. The blu-ray dvd extra to the album had a version of that. It's amazing to hear all the complex things going on underneath the vocals.
I actually like the instrumental version even better, as I can hear everything that's going on - so cool that you could remove all those "oh oh oh oh's" and it's an instrumental that totally stands on its own.
@@Kevin6059 but I like hearing Saiki growl before the oh-oh-oh bit and the harmony with Miku in the melodious part is so heavenly. But oh-oh-oh is as catchy as it is, it's perhaps the main reason some people don't take them seriously or put off by them. Also as they get more mainstream and songs used in tv ads, anime and opening song for events, they'll get more pressure to make their song even catchier or J-Rocky to some extent.....
Yes I've said the same thing many times, how can you watch a Band-Maid video and not smile? And when I saw them live in Oct. of 22, my jaws were sore after the show.... from smiling... the whole time! Truly gifted ladies. Thank you Band-Maid for sharing that gift.
I like the mix of the almost filthy-sounding parts and the ultra-catchy chorus that just invites you to sing along. I don't even think we need to talk about the bass solo. The assassin has struck again. :) One of those performances where you can't help but smile with the girls and be in a better mood afterwards. If that's not the case, I highly recommend having your pulse checked as soon as possible. :) 【 'Our rock never dies ever. Forever!' - Band-Maid 】🕊️
Police have dug up the remains of a tiny hat under the foundations of a Tokyo flyover. But they say there's no concrete evidence that it's THE "Tiny Hat" :)
Yeah, this album is easily their best so far. There's also news that a NEW song (not from their latest album) is going to be coming out soon. Here's what the Band-Maid Official Website said: BAND-MAID's new song "火花(Hibana)" it means "Spark" has been chosen as the battle theme for the All-Japan University e-Sports Competition 2021! It seems likely that their will be an MV of some sort or maybe they are already declaring a new album for next year...because Band-Maid seems to do that ever year. Stay tuned!
"And there is no doubt about the technical credentials of MISA. She is a graduate of the Tokyo Music School, one of the most prestigious music schools in the world. If you have heard of the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, then you will understand how impressive that credential is."(RaijinRock)
on their blue ray version they have a second disc with pov views of every player. every band member recorded themselves playing. very cool to see. so you can see exactly what they are all doing.
I just came back from listening to ace of spades...yeah main riff is similar but I prefer this as a song. I'm the type of person who gets bored so easily, but the maids give me all I want. Their songs are like stories. Kanami probably gets inspiration from any sounds or melodies her ears pick up but I'm not sure if she remembers where exactly her inspiration is coming from. 😄
Thank you for getting Band Maid out to the world. If you haven't done Take Me Higher Live it is well worth watching. I couldn't find the link but please have a look for it...the "BASS" is insane. Keep up the great Band Maid reactions!!!
thanks for another BandMaid reaction! Misa is bosslevel. her entire bassline was a ride! yea I agree with the motorhead sound in the beginning... was thinking of if motorhead would make anime theme songs.. xD
I really can't wait to actually hear this song from the audience of a concert one day. You gotta sing along with the "Oh way oh way oh" or you gotta get out!
Well done, you two. Yes, their "happy factor" is like nothing I've experienced before. Prior to this band, I listened to very little music that you could call "catchy" - as it was usually crap. These ladies though - my God. In fact, No God could be viewed by some as proof that God does in fact exist!
i thought for sure you were going to rewind that bass solo and yet im in shock that you didnt.also your comment about not saying your name like that reminded me of that old school coffee commercials hmm jim never ask for second cup at home i fell out of my chair laughing thanks you two your great c-ya
I agree it isn’t Ah-Kane but I wonder if it is Ah-kah-neh or Ah-KAHN-eh. I think I heard her say the latter when a live crowd was chanting her name wrong.
Neither is correct. There's no "e" sound or "eh" sound or "ah" sound in Japanese. Closest may be ah (but without -h) - cunneh (but without -h). No intonation in it either. Japanese language is very percussive. You can slow down where Saiki raps in "blooming" to decipher what I mean.
Yes. Band-Maid are great and LOVEBITES too. There's also NEMOPHILA on the scene now. Lots of reactors still haven't found them yet. Possibly one of my favorite Japanese all women metal bands out there. Although that genre is world class leading everyone at the moment reviving metal/hard rock around the world. NEMOPHILA-DISSENSION or RAITEI or OIRAN.
Guys, check out NEMOPHILA another all Japanese girls Metal Band songs Dissension(high pitch scream) and Raitei.... and also cover songs Iron Maiden, KISS, ACDC, Linkin Park, Halloween, Babymetal... and also HANABIE Band(low pitch growl voice vocal)

@@GaryHolloway-810 Thanks, my BAND-MAID brother. I hadn't even seen that. 🔥
@@patron40silver It's called "Hibana" (Spark). We just need them to drop a MV of that next week then.🤞

Ooh nice. "Ace of MAID's". Yep it's got that chugging riff :)
Though I think Akane "Philthy gorilla" doesn't quite fit!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘
@@sobabruddah7576 Agreed and very difficult to come up with a word that starts with Akane or any part of her name.
When you said "...because I need MISA, gimme that bass" I started grinning. Couldn't have picked a better BAND-MAID song to say that line, hehe.
Mat and Chels, if you missed the US Tour 2022 dates, watch a fancam video of No God. It's got a new extended intro!
Great reaction and perfect thumbnail. Don’t put him in the doghouse too long, Chels. MISA has that effect on people.
Chels could try the misa dress up thing, and have mat druelling...😘😘😘
Chels: You don't say my name like that.
Mat: Well, have you ever thought about taking up the base?
thanks for another BandMaid reaction! Misa is bosslevel. her entire bassline was a ride! yea I agree with the motorhead sound in the beginning... was thinking of if motorhead would make anime theme songs.. xD
Misa seamlessly switched slap to pick two times in this short bass solo
Her technique is amazing
I really can't wait to actually hear this song from the audience of a concert one day. You gotta sing along with the "Oh way oh way oh" or you gotta get out!
I have become completely addicted to Band Maid.
Band-Maid plays happy metal :-)
kanami is ripping continuously in this track
Not to worry .... you'll have plenty of MISA MISA MISA here ;) !!! She seems to think this whole song is a bass solo :p .

FWIW, the drummer's name is pronounced Ah-kah-neh.
It's okay. A lot of English speakers gravitate to English phonemes.
Japanese syllables will end with a vowel sound. Like Damon says: A-ka-ne.

Till Lindemann released his new single "Ich Hasse Kinder" today.
Make sure to react to it as soon as possible, it's an absolute banger.
Recording it tonight!
🤘🇹🇭
Hey guy short info:
Lindemann published a song on the occasion of the International Children's Day. Title:
"Ich hasse Kinder" ("I hate children").
Yes Till can do that. 😂
Lyrics:
I get on a plane It gets cold,
I hear it screaming
I know my seat number
Panic rides great grief
I am getting closer to the series of complaints
The screaming louder and louder
The fear is now giving way to certainty here
A toddler sitting right next to me
Here is the question of all classes:
“Can I and can you hate children?”
I hate children
I hate children
The screamer is now doing gymnastics and there
The mother flips through a magazine
Speaks silently to the child while she reads
And eats an apple
The dear Lord God wants to punish me
The annoyance does not want to sleep
Does not stop screaming at all
The father has long been asleep like a stone
Here the question of all classes: "Can and must one hate children?"
I hate children
I hate children
No, I love them
Yes, I love them
The big and the little ones
But it has to be mine
But all of a sudden it becomes quiet.
It laughs at me, I'm ecstatic.
Put your hand out to the little one.
Then it starts screaming again.
I hate children.
I hate children.
No, I love them.
Yes, I love them.
The big ones and the little ones
But they have to be mine
I hate children
I hate children
Here comes the question of all the questions:
"Can and must you beat children?"
No, I love them
Yes, I love them
All children, big and small
But they should be mine.
I see it like Till 😂😂
Best thing about OP/grand children is giving them back when they aren't fun anymore.
It's International Children's Day in Germany on June 1st as well btw.
@@MADNESS_NH_97 Yes, that's right. I had a little dropout at the moment. That's probably because I heard this song in Russian shortly before and in connection with the video.
