Saw them live at their 14th anniversary show in November. Close to three hours of pure fun.
Great reaction. This is one of their most popular songs. They have plenty more as good as this, like I Wish I and Kachi Kachi Yama. It's wonderful organised musical chaos with enough energy to power a city.
a large city and its suburbs ... at least ☺
Great you liked the Song , still listening to this on my Playlist ,despite the Fact it is more than 2 Years old. " I Wish I( MV or Live ) "is so totally different from this one , or Tamashii Live would be the next ones to go. Always happy when Reactors appreciate the hard Work they put in their Songs.
Hey Mark.. Yes quite a song, and quite a group.. Mindset is as you say a masterpiece of a song. They are a very versatile group who have been around for a while. Take a look at Timashi live.. Last time I saw two drum sets on the same stage was the Glitter band in the 70's. You have to see it. Perfect timing, awesome feat live..
If you're checking out Tamashii live, also know that they have a video up where they play the song with toy instruments, might be a fun double reaction/comparison :D
Regular live: ua-cam.com/video/Jt7-GGRa3nc/v-deo.html
Toy instrument version: ua-cam.com/video/DzoxNWNnFpw/v-deo.html
Would also suggest "I wish I"
but they have a lot of other good stuff as well :)
@@ascheroth331 Thanks for posting the links man. Whenever I try the comment disappears?😡 Agree on all. Hana the drummers kitchen utensil version of "Smells like teen spirit" Is mind boggling as well.
Another very talented group of ladies.. Best wishes
Excellent reaction to a amazing band of extremely talented women. My introduction to then was a live version of Mindset and at the end I thought "WTF did I just listen to?" The solo was pure brilliance. GS is well known for putting a variety of genres into their music writing blender and they somehow make it work. There sound is definitely driven by a heavy bass and it usually includes a lot of slap bass to help bring it to the forefront. The energy of their live shows is off the charts. This song is a good recommendation: *Gacharic Spin 'I wish I (Official Live Video) in 豊洲PIT (Lyrics in English)'*
I discovered this band at the same time I found Band-Maid, so they're weirdly linked in my muddled brain. I suggest the MV for "I Wish I" (from the same album as Mindset) or their latest MV "BakuBaku" from a month ago. Cheers
Although they have a very different sound, I think they have a similar spirit. There aren't many bands that make me laugh in awe, but those two do.
GS is just pure joy of music.
Girls can make cold stone move ...
GACHARIC SPIN kicks ass!!! Another Japanese band that I listen to tons. I loved watching you get sucked into the music. Very cool.
I love this band. I knew what you were in before you started. F Chopper Koga is usually mentioned along with the handful of top bass players in Japan. FUN FACT: DOLL$BOXX is a collaboration between the members of Gacharic Spin and vocalist Fuki. They have promised some 2 man shows together sometime in December 2024.
Mindset is a lot of peoples introduction to this band ... but there is much more to discover ;) .
Oh I’ll be doing more!
Hey, I'm finally glad you got round to it and took these ladies for a .... uhmm... spin..... yeah.. Anyway, you have to be mentally prepared to listen to so many switch ups in a 4-minute song really. You had different expectations I guess, but it's all really about your... (oh dear)... mindset... when listening to a group like this.... Yeah, I think you get the drift.
Now, I probably should check on how to pronounce their name before making this comment, but I believe many call them "Ga(h) - Cha - Ric" Spin, with the "ch" pronounced the same way as in the word "choose". Maybe someone more proficient could confirm or correct me (that'd be nice). Anyway, this band has much to offer and I do hope you would check out more of their songs. I think they are really interesting and damn cool, and I hope you would hear them out.
Gacharic Spin, probably one of the most talented and unfortunately also most overlooked mystery bags that Japan has to offer. 😏Trust me, this was at best a slice of the whole cake that these ladies can represent. Sure, combining so many styles at once might be too much for most, but heck, I love it. Check out 'I wish I (Official Live Video) in 豊洲PIT (Lyrics in English)' next and you'll most likely agree with me. 😇🙋🏻♂

_"Sometimes we laugh because we're sad or to hide our frustration"_ - from *Gacharic Spin* -「 I Wish I 」 🎶✨
I like their song Forever 9teen from the same album. The official MV isn't released in their channel but someone else uploaded it. It features their singer Angelina 1/3 on it. It's Pop Punk. :)
Gacharic Spin are wildly eclectic. I have a couple of suggestions which, like Mindset, are from their seventh, self-titled album.
Magic Umbrella Girl is a mixture of cutesy pop, gnarly shreddy guitar rock and musical theatre. One review compared it to eating cotton candy with habanero seeds hidden in it. There's a fan upload of a pro-shot live concert at Zepp Haneda Tokyo on 2022/01/10,
I second the recommendations for I Wish I. Another song with complex, contrasting arrangement, which goes to some unexpected places. There are two official live videos - I suggest the one from TOYOSU PIT with English hard-subbed lyrics.
You can't just call it their best song. Not because other songs are necessary better but jusg because tthey also wildly differ from song to song and somehow it all sounds coherently together. One of my personal favourites is A Lala.
Love your reaction style - straight from the gut and straight to the point!!!
I think it's absolutely valid, to compare bands (or use other bands to describe what you hear), as long as you don't reduce the band you're talking about only to that.
Don't have to say a lot about GS here, except that there is no other band like them and I love them to death!!!
Check out some more stuff of theirs and escpecially a live or 2 to get a better understanding of their energetic madness.
Spoiler: You might get to add a genre of 5 more, just sayin'
Cheers :)
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words! I use the other bands as a way to kinda quickly get across what I mean lol. It only works if people know the bands I’m talking about 😂
They sure are a genre blender 😄. I think that is one of Gacharic Spin's main stand out points, others being high energy live shows and utilization of multiple vocals (they 4 people in the band that can sing). As for recommendation, I wish I, The Come Up Chapter, Live Every Moment or Sekira Liar if you're up for something older and vocoder doesn't bother you.
Hell yes! I’ve been waiting for this. Love this band! Check out the song I Wish I next.
Very entertaining reaction - especially the technical comment and then retraction 🤣🤣 What you'll find with this band though, more than say Sokininaru or Asterism, is its generally melody and groove that are put to the forefront rather than showing off the technical ability. So depends what you like really. I prefer the groove and melody though I can appreciate pure technical mastery I don't want to just listen to that too often.
Love GS, been following them a few years. Their live videos are fantastic. Allmembers super talented. Love their chaos, but iti s organized chaos. They paly multiple styles hard to categorize
I knew you were going to eat your words when you said they are not as technical as Sokoninaru or Asterism. 😜 They are all Jedi level musicians.
Saving this for later viewing: I’m up North visiting my aged parents who, while broad-minded, might not be quite ready for the breadth of language that Mark tends to indulge in.
I’ve got a great story about guisers visiting the house when I was younger, for context, if you are interested.
I 100% want this story 😂
@@markabusireactions So, for those not familiar with Scots traditions, before trick-or-treating in Scotland, which is just wee terrorists demanding sugar door-to-door, there was a tradition called “guising”, which involved kids going to houses and putting on a performance to earn the goods.
One Hallowe’en, we’d been out to the neighbours and returned, and there were bowls of treats out on the table. Guisers would be invited in out of the cold where they could do their party piece.
There was a knock on the door and two boys were there, aged about 10 and 8. They weren’t in costumes, and we didn’t know them, but they were invited in anyway. They looked around, and grinned, but didn’t do anything. My folks looked expectantly at them. The older boy, spotting the game, boldly stepped forward. “I’ve got a joke for ye”, he offered.
“Go on…”, my Mum said.
“Well there was a wee town, in which there was three pubs, called “The Queen’s Head”, “The Queen’s Arms”, and “The Queen’s Legs”, the boy started.
“And there were three friends, Jim, Jock and Boab, just finishing work. They were talking to their boss.
What are ye daein’ noo, lads?” said the boss.”
I was listening intently, with no idea of the disaster that was about to descend.
“Jim said, “It’s pie and a pint night at the Queen’s Head, so I’m off down there…”
“Jock said, “I’ll probably just ha’e a quick one in the Queen’s Arms.”
“… and they went off. “What about you?”, said the boss to Boab”
The lad was gaining in confidence. With a deep breath he proudly capped off his tale.
“Aw, I’ll be off in a few minutes” said Boab. “I’m just waitin’ for the Queens Legs to open so I can get a drink!!!”
There was stony silence in the hall.
The brave lad was, to my folks’ credit, rewarded for his story, then hurried out the door.
That day certainly opened my eyes to the diverse possibilities that the performing arts offer.
I think it got censored by UA-cam, for being too long or something.
@@domperignon778 😂😂😂 that’s when you know it’s a good story. DM me on patreon/discord!
One of the great nicknames in music; F Chopper Koga on bass. One of their newer ones that might confuse you: *"Kachi Kachi Yama."* It relates office politics to traditional lore. Seriously, turn the CC on and revel in Japanese office culture. They have something to say about it.
Okay that sounds great 😂😂
I'm going to point out the obvious, the acronym for F Chopper Koga is FCK. She used to use a bass with that on the headstock. She was the original founder of the band I believe.
It's an amazing song! (And not their only one 😉) 👍
Mark, you will have plenty to check out for Gacharic Spin but very worth while checking out a sub project of theirs, namely Doll$boxx. This is the Gacharic Spin members minus the vocalist Angie, but with the vocalist from Unlucky Morpheus, FUKI
More straight hard rock than GSs varied music but oh so good. They did a now legendary concert in 2018 from which the below tracks are taken. I have tried to get hold of the DVD for this concert but have not managed to achieve this. TOMO-ZO gets to show off her guitar chops more than with GS I would say. The whole band are just on fire
DOLL$BOXX - Shout Down / Karakuri Town

Nice! I’ll need to check this out sometime!
Peak Paramore wasn’t Emo though, they were Pop-Punk and pop-rock…Mindset is a banger. Legit hard to think of much like Gacharic Spin. You should check out their song kachi kachi yama. They have a live version on their channel.
Pop-punk and emo have such an overlap in my head 😂 I just lump them all under one umbrella, for easiness!
@@markabusireactions I agree with you - they're pretty much the same thing to my ears.
If you look for it, Tamashii live is well worth the effort of searching. Especially the dual quick drum solo.
❤❤❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘Hell Yeah !!!!!!
I haven't liked their other songs I've heard as much as this one, but I haven't heard that many. They're all very good at what they do. I really like the timbre of their vocalist, and love when people incorporate weird little touches into a song, like the teeth sucking bit I think you giggled at, at 4:04. The instrumentation and the writing is all interesting, but touches like that make a song stand out to me. Like my favorite part of Corallium being the little "wow" Miku throws in.
You do like your complicated music, I’ve noticed!!
@@markabusireactions I like stuff that holds my interest, that has personality. Complicated is just one way to do that. The song you just listened to that I recommended doesn't even have any instruments for half of it.
@@daaaaaave true. I did love that song, had it on repeat since 😂
The girl playing drums is not even their current drummer, she's the guitarist. The drummer was on maternity leave.
Their BASS.
Their funky BASS
Enough said
😂😂
@@markabusireactions yeah yeah, I commented before you mentioned you don’t like slap, but it’s “almost?” Used as a rhythm ?? Than a bass, IDK ? Am I talking shite ?
Anyway, apart from their bass, the energy is great
After a few drinks this track would get me dancing, and I DONT dance 😆 🕺 (turns me into a Peter Garrett )
@@spinnymathingy3149 I think I don’t actually mind slap, but in my personal experience people who CAN slap insist on letting you know. And since I can’t… slap bass can get in the bin lol
@@markabusireactions yeah, agree, davie504 spoilt it for everyone (he was kinda funny for a while tho)
The drummer is amulti instumentalist, now mostly plays guitar but still sometimes does drums
i almost done got pissed off when you said you didnt like slap bass until you mentioned flea, like... i get it, fair enough
this song is an absolute rager though
Absolute rager 😂 I’m stealing that lol
actually F. Chopper Koga claw hammers much more then slaps slap is such a catch all term lol there is much more to it but yeah Flea annoys me too lol
F Chopper Koga is a fantastic bassist, all styles.
Bangers and Mash!
You noticed the basist... Coolest name in Japanese music currently: "Chopper Koga".
That would be F Chopper Koga. Coolest name ever.
The 'F' stands for "pheromone" (there was a transliteration incident involving katakana, a microwave and some non-dairy creamer).
Great reaction, with your impeccable timing to pause when it came to the keyboard solo, or any solo for that matter. ☺I saw them in November and they are really are better live. I will admit, your personal view on RHCP made my day, I'm also not a fan, I find them🥱.
I’m like a bloodhound for a solo 😂
Great reaction my friend, try from them "I Wish I" MV and "Reverse Psychology" Official Live.
Thank you!!
😘
🥰🥰
Yeh scarp that comment Mark it was made to soon in the video
Just as when you start a Robert Louis Stevenson novel, it's too soon to label the story as trite after the first chapter, when listening to Gacharic Spin, you must listen at least 5 times before passing judgement on talent and craftsmanship. Also, the band picked the name "gacharic" because no one would know how to pronounce it.
So we can just pretend I pronounced it perfectly?
@@markabusireactionsYour accent helps immeasurable with the pronunciation
日本のベーシストにスラップが多いのは何でだろう？アメリカンジャズの影響かなぁ？UKには少ないよね？
There’s not much of it at all over here!
