    The Japanese metal/rock scene is the best in the world at the moment. Lovebites, Nemophila, Band-Maid & Hanabie are all incredibly talented (And all-female). There are others as well. I've seen Nemophila live twice and they are fire. It's a deep rabbit hole for these bands, but well worth the time. Buckle up

    This is why Nemophila and Band Maid are my two favorite bands....the musicianship is off the charts !!!! The two guitarist are well known and world class.....the drummer is also as one of the best female drummers in the world. And the vocalist !!!!!! OMG she is the best female
    metal vocalist out there and just wait...they can play anything....from ballads to heavy and everything in between and it's all top notch !!

  • @Dead-EyeMetal
    @Dead-EyeMetal 10 місяців тому +10

    How could I not sub after that reaction? 🤘👍
    I'm seriously biased as this is my favourite band, but Nemophila has everything. This kind of metal/metalcore thing is sort of their home base but they mix up genres and styles constantly: rock, pop, nu-metal, thrash, death metal, groove metal, ballads - it's all in their repertoire along with a bunch uncategorisable stuff. And it's ALL great!
    The band formed in 2019 (They just played their 5th anniversary show at Nippon Budokan). Originally they came together as a temporary session band for a project of Mayu's (vocalist). They got on so well musically and personally that they just decided to stay together (Thank you, universe!)
    They are:
    Mayu: scream and clean vocals (also mom to a baby)
    SAKI : 7-string guitar (Killer Guitars brand, Japan), backing vocals
    Hazuki: 7-string guitar (Ibanez), backing vocals
    Haraguchi-san (AKA Hara-chan): 5-string bass, backing vocals
    Tamu: Drums, backing vocals (also mom to two young children)
    Recommended songs to get a good overview: 'OIRAN' (the most recent live version is by far the best), 'Ama-Te-Ras', 'Zen' (full-on scream-fest), 'Adabana', 'Change the World', 'Raitei', 'Monsters'.
    EDIT to add: I forgot their epic, 80's style power ballad, 'Odyssey'. I thought I hated power ballads until they made that song. Amazing.

  • @snakewhisperer1
    @snakewhisperer1 10 місяців тому +1

    Enjoyed the reaction. Fellow guitarist here. And yes, they can play circles around me too. My favorite of theirs is "Adabana". Hazuki (with the Ibanez). Does an overhand tapping solo in that song. When I saw the video, I thought it was her just showing off for the camera. But then I saw a clip of them performing the song at The Whiskey, and she pulled it off live on stage.

  • @kawliga4845

    Great Reaction! Welcome to the kickass world of Nemophila. One of the best out of Japan and my personal favorite. I would give you the run down on the whole band but many others already have. I got to see them this time last year March 19th in Dallas and they kicked ass. Been following them since 2020 and they formed in 2019. They play many styles of metal, rock, punk and even a little pop mixed in sometimes. But mostly they are heavy and just hell of a metal and rock band. I love pretty much all of their songs. I see you just reacted to Adabana too. Another great song. My other recommendations would be Oiran Live the most recent live video about 8 months ago. Oiran was the first song they recorded I believe and is usually their show closer. Awesome song. Others would be Dissension, Revive ,RAITEI, Zen live which is one of their heaviest and Mayu growls and screams through it all. They have many different sounding songs like Hypnosis, Ama-Te-Ras and then Style which is like numetal. They also have some ballads too like Odyssey, Life, Now I Here and Game Over. Though life is slow but not really ballad IMO but is a very beautiful song and video. There is so many more too plus they have also done some killer covers. Especially back in Covid lockdowns. This band can play anything. They are also very cool laid back band too. Very positive and always smiling having a great time and they are amazing musicians. You are in for a very fun ride with this band.

  • @andreasvomdorp7852
    @andreasvomdorp7852 10 місяців тому +3

    I've always listened to a great variety of styles and genres of music, so it feels actually quite weird to me that in the last year or two I've been listening something like 80% of the time to only Japanese bands, and of those 80% mainly to Band-Maid, Lovebites and Nemophila. Those three simply satisfy the greatest part of my current musical needs. Of course I know there are many other great bands out there to be discovered, but right now those are the three I constantly come back to. Well, Lovebites are coming to Europe this summer and I'll be lucky enough to be able to follow them around for a few of their shows. Already got the tickets. And as soon as Band-Maid or Nemophila set their foot on European ground - and it won't be too far away from where I live or clash with my working days - I'll be there! Nemophila is a fantastic band. There are a great many videos on UA-cam where they cover songs from other bands - and they're great and the band seem to be having a lot of fun playing them -, but in my opinion Nemophila really shine when they're doing their own songs. "Adabana" is another great one, or "Life", which is a slower, ballady kind of song, very poignant and touching.

    During the pandemic, Nemophila would learn and upload a cover song every Friday recorded either in Tamu’s (drummer) jam room or separately from each of their homes. It’s quite a list so I know you’ll find something that peaks your curiosity! They’ve covered from Journey to Iron Maiden and Slip Knot. Just browse their official channel. Thanks for sharing your insights!😄💪🏻🤘🏻
    Here’s a link to their song Life. And they’re performing it each turned towards the drummer Tamu in honor of her return to the band from maternity leave. You can see Tamu’s face is wet from tears the whole performance. These are wonderful people.

    You reaction is so amazing... moved me to tears... 🥲I reacted the same way, when I was introduced to Nemophila a few months ago: Disbelieve, laughters, blown-away'ness. And that was only the beginning. Then I experienced umpteen _brilliant_ masterpieces from them, on 4 consecutive studio albums. Incredible _diamonds_ of Metal. "Too good to be true." Continue to relish their music, it will fill you with happiness and joy. 😄 Nemophila produce *HAPPY* Metal. 😃Welcome to Nemophila's rabbit hole of music excellence. 😊💮DE

  • @Timber1508
    @Timber1508 10 місяців тому +7

    Your first pronunciation was correct: nem-oh-feel-a. It's taken from the Latin name of the Baby Blue Eyes flower which has five petals, representing the five band members. They go from harder than this (Zen live, Oiran) to skate-punkish crowdpleasers with attitude (Style, Night Flight) to unique ethnically-influenced tracks (Hypnosis, AMA-TE-RAS, Enten) to tearjerking ballads (Life, Odyssey, Now I Here). I saw Nemophila live last year and it was, bar none, the loudest most intense concert I have ever experienced.

    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 - (ex- HöLDERLINS band) bass, backing vocals, was Mayu's friend and colleague from Music College;
    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, "Destrose", and others), she's a "young sacred monster" in J-metal) guitar, backing vocals, and...
    Hazuki (KOIAI "Dark Indigo" / Li-sa-X, Disqualia 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 about 40 original, freakishly insane good songs (singles, EPs - including the JPURecords' Extended Edition of "Oiran", 3 albums - "Revive", "Seize The Faith", "Evolve").

    but - according to Saki - "it's part of 'Cheer to Art, Tokyo Project' (started by Tokyo Metropolitan Government to offer place for artists to upload their work...since all lives, concerts, events and exhibitions had been suspended, all venues had been closed";
    was posted on UA-cam, on this governmental channel: アートにエールを!【音楽 1ch】; although is no longer there, there are some reactions to it, just search "NEMOPHILA / AnotherStory". It's also kept on WebArchive.
    - Creature, Ultramarine... not part of any official release, but they are performed sometimes in concerts.
    - Breaking Out... released only during their first live stream in 2020, and performed sometimes in concerts;
    - Blooming... released only on the official Nemophila UA-cam channel, and performed sometimes in concerts.

    Nemophila literally means "woodland-loving" (from the Greek words némos meaning wooded pasture/glade and philos, which means Loving). However, this band is named after the plant, known in the west as Baby Blue Eyes, and in Japan as Rurikarakusa. Which is why the fanbase are known as Petalheads! Nemophila have a ton of songs of this quality and better, both live and MV's, and they are yet another sparkling jewel in the treasure chest of Japanese female Rock and Metal bands - Band-Maid, Lovebites and Nemophila are my holy trinity of music and my ears worship their sounds daily. But there are other amazing gems in that chest too, either all female or female-led - Babymetal, Asterism, Hanabie, Wagakki Band....the chest is packed with treasures! Subscribed to see you experience the wonder, joy and headbanging glory that is Japanese women making all the very best Rock and Metal for the 21st century.

    I didn't want to say anything as I loved your BM and Lovebites reactions, but Nemophila is the best band out of Japan now - hardcore hot chicks - heavy growls followed by sexy hooks. Mayu - vocals; Tamu Murata - drums ( the most gifted musician of them all, multi-instrumentalist); Haraguchi-san - bass; and twin seven-string lead guitarists Hazuki to your left and Saki to your right!!! Welcome home!!! This is the band you want in your live. I can hardly wait to see your reaction to their live songs - those wild cats will render you speechless. " Seize the Faith", " Zen", " Revive", " Raitei", "Ama-Te-Ras" - their latest release, and many more - all live. A song that I have never seen live " Adabana" - will stop your heart with Tamu's fills. " Hypnosis" and many many more)) You pronounced the band's name correctly the first time when you did it phonetically...the second time you made it sound like "sex with fish"))) you totally ruined " Finding Nemo" for me)))

    Great reaction to a great song, Amie ! This song ' Rise' is the one that sold me on Nemophila. If you're looking for some more Japanese Rock/Metal suggestions - these are some of my favourites.
    Japanese Female HR/HM Bands. Some excellent introductions, IMO, to the following bands.
    * Show-Ya - Watashi Wa Arashi (I Am The Storm) (MV, 1989)
    * Destrose - Maze (Full MV, 480p)
    * Mary's Blood - Marionette (MV/Full version)
    * Lovebites - Shadowmaker (MV)
    * Aldious - We Are (Full Version) (MV)
    * Fate Gear - Winds Of Fall (OMV)
    * Mardelas - Patriot Anthem (OMV)
    * Nemophila - Rise (OMV) ✔️ .

    I think "Dissension" and "Oiran" are typical their songs, but "Odyssey" is from very other side. It's just like "I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith. It means they are made for emotional seanse of movie.
    So my recomendation are "Oiran", "Dissension" and "Life" all from Naon no Yaon 2021 live version. But there are no English subtitles, so please check out studio version with English subtitles too before or same time.

    I generally advise reactors to start the journey with RAITEI Music video (not the latest live. Thats for later) Just to see where the first professional music videos started. Then there is their great early songs called Oiran, Soraii, Monsters, Fighter and Life followed by Dissension(their second music video). They have 3 albums and a couple of EPs that dont have a bad song so the journey is long and amazing. variety abounds with Nemophila and they are highly skilled musicians and great human beings. Then there is their covers. Covers are a very important part to their story and their connection to their fans and themselves. The Japanese band covers will also lead you to check out even more Japanese metal. Their Maximum the Hormone and Rottengraffty covers are a good start. Starting in 2019 their covers were a great way to keep contact together and with the fans during the pandemic.

    I love the solos in RAITEI and they recently released a live version recorded at different shows including the House Of Blues, which is great though not as clear as the studio version. ua-cam.com/video/6aoghIEPOYc/v-deo.html Their song Demon Light is a bit harder to find as it is not listed in English. ua-cam.com/video/TjqrElTL-r8/v-deo.html Their song Life is a beautiful song recorded when Tamu (drummer) returned from maternity leave, which is why they are all facing her and there is "extra" emotions happening plus it was Hazuki's birthday. ua-cam.com/video/HFnEYhbEAqg/v-deo.html I have seen Band Maid Twice and Nemophila once and loved all the shows. I would think they will be back soon. Fingers crossed.

    Band-Maid, Lovebites and now Nemophila. Nemophila typically mix clean and harsh vocals. You have only scratched the surface of Japanese rock/metal. I've been in the rabbit hole for about 2 years now, starting with Lovebites and Band-Maid. If you want to explore further, other Japanese bands - Unlucky Morpheus - Black Pentagram (Official Music Video), Aldious - Go Away (Full Version), Bridear - Ignite Official Music Video), East of Eden - Evolve Extended Version (Music Video), Mana Diagram - Glitter wind(Official Music Video), Mary's Blood - Starlight - Music Video(official)

    Please add Revive to your list.
    While the first 3 bands have a more traditional type of sound, the next 2 add some Japanese flavor to the mix.
    Let's see if we can go for 5 for 5!
    Babymetal - Catch Me If You Can, LIVE WITH INTRO.
    I dont care what anybody else says. Start with this one!
    And Hanabie (Ha-nah-bee-eh), We Love Sweets. It's definitely a fan favorite !

    You should also do "Zen" (official live) ua-cam.com/video/k1yPbBRHFms/v-deo.html
    The MVs for "Hypnosis" ua-cam.com/video/k7iF1BZ36cU/v-deo.html

    "Style" ua-cam.com/video/kDaezMfprq0/v-deo.html
    "Life" (official live) ua-cam.com/video/HFnEYhbEAqg/v-deo.html
    The other recommendations are all good. Like many Japanese bands, they ignore genre boundaries. And like other Japanese bands, they have no bad songs. While the band formed in August 2019, the members are all veterans of other bands. They started out as Mayu's jam session but they decided they liked the chemistry so much they formed a band.
    They are the "soft and fluffy band from Hell".
    The name is the scientific genus name of a group of flowers from Western N. America. The different varieties have the phrase "baby blue eyes..." in their English names. The flower has 5 petals representing the 5 band members and you see it in their band logo.

    Nemophila also has a butt load of cover songs from 70's and 80's bands as well. One of my favorite covers is Detroit City by Kiss. But they do it in full make-up as the band used to be. I just did a check and you have not checked out the band Hanabie yet. Most people have them look at this one first. Kind a like the intro to the band. Hanabie / We love sweets ua-cam.com/video/G18yyvPCiTM/v-deo.htmlsi=IGynwYUs_tn43W8L Had to add something. Maybe at some point you should watch an older video. This band is called Destros. The band broke up back in 2015 but two of the members created Lovebites One when into Nemophila and one went to Mary's Blood.

    I have been a fan of death metal my whole life listening to Sepultura with my older brother in grade 4.
    So cool that they had the lyrics up. As you said because they know they're good.
    In the 80's there was a lot of demonic bullshit. Don't know if it was the Christian's who started it with a censorship agenda and a response by the musicians or the opposite.
    Either way the only devil song from that era i can listen to without cringe is from Iron Maiden
