They play an eclectic mix of metal/prog-rock/blues/punk/pop/jazz/funk etc...but always with that Hard Rock base!!! Their style varies greatly from song to song, yet always recognizably _Band Maid._
Band Maid is a kind of musical catalyst for rock (and blues, and jazz, and punk ...) of the last 50 years ... They are in the process of creating their own genre: the Band Maid genre ... I strongly suggest Real Existence live! Great reaction!
Lol Band-Maid is good and all but I don't think they are creating any genre here, they are taking a lot of previous genres and creatively making good songs out of that, that doesn't mean they are creating their own genre.
@@jonasw3945 I think all can say is that Band-Maid can't be neatly pigeonholed into a genre. Hard rock is probably closest, but it's a genre that's almost dead these days, due to harder bands typically going to metal now, and Band-Maid aren't a metal band.
One reason they have such an enthusiastic fan base is that their songs not only don't sound the same, but every time you listen to it, you'll hear different things 🎶
That is the truth. Band Maid seems to have no inking of any kind of rule book. For them putting a very pop chorus with an extremely heavy bridge with a Zeppelin verse and touches of prog is the most natural thing in the world (Moritorium). I have never known a band where every member is constantly taking my attention from the other and it doesn't seem distracting or annoying.
@@scottmcgregor4829 Moratorium is a great example. Was thinking of trying to get everyone in the line outside the show to do the sing-along part outside the venue.🎵🎵🎵
I think the song, " Play " should be your next listen. It was an instrumental like Onset but the lead singer Saiki liked the music so much she asked ( or made ) Miku write lyrics to it. Anyway its a banger !!❤😎👌
Great song pick. The next song pick is also going to be great, because that is how Band-Maid roll. The singer is called Saiki, and she has such a great voice. Play and Real Existence Live are two great live performances where Saiki shows a very commanding presence!
Did you say Pop-Punk? The Maids have you covered. Check out "Alone". It's the first song their label allowed them to include on an album that was composed, written, and arranged by this miracle of a band and it's GREAT! Thanks Mr. Beard! 🕊
Band-Maid don't do samey, they do different, what's more, they even have a song called "Different" which as it states is different from all the other different stuff they do ; )
They don't know how to make a boring song. The range of their variety just widens with each new track you encounter. It never gets old...seeing someone fall down the 'pigeon hole' (someone will explain...if they haven't already). Enjoy the ride matey!!!
Another great reaction! I suspect you're becoming a Maidiac, EB! I think Kanami's sound on this is reminiscent of The Edge from U2 in some phrases. Cheers and thanks!
Yep, this and Daydreaming have The Edge sound but, thank goodness, that's the only time I've heard U2 in their songs. I used to like the Joshua Tree album back in the late 80's but not much since. Band-Maid fuflil all my musical needs now.
Misa rules the planet for rock bass and I call Akane on drums "The Detonator". Miku and Kanami are the indestructible wall of guitar. They rule ...... and then you the velvet charisma of Saiki, and you have an unstoppable force of nature right there. For theother side of their sound , please listen to About Us.
The opening guitar section you are referring to always had a country-rock twang to me. Everybody has different musical references depending on what they grew up listening to
Look at the mastery of their instruments. This was supposed to be a filler to allow their singer Saiki to take a break. So much for filler. Prior to hearing this, I thought Band-Maid was a cool rock band with some nice and catchy choruses. After hearing this, my respect for each and every member multiplied like crazy, including the missing singer Saiki!! (I can only explain that by her being missing here, you realize how much Saiki contributes to the band, yet the band can actual hold their own without her. Not sure if that makes sense).
Band-Maid instrumentals are great, Miku songs are great, but I'll probably get bored eventually if that was all they did. I know there are amazing voices out there and most of them oversing, but with the kind of lyrics Miku writes, she's had to put so many words in her singing while keeping the strength and depth in her voice at the same time. Those rap singing she does, is really hard. Most rap singers are not even singing, they are just rapping words, but Saiki, I don't know how she does it. No Saiki, no Band-Maid.
This epic instrumental song is put into Band-Maid concerts to give the lead singer, Saiki, a vocal break! Band-Maid is multi genre, blending many different kinds into their own music to be their own genre!
Thrill was the first song of theirs I heard and I was sold. The clothes definitely became secondary to the music. That was 2 years ago, and I have only grown to appreciate them more and more. As will you as you continue your journey.
This is one of the very few times I've ever heard anyone else use U2's distinctive guitar sound. Most people leave it alone to avoid sounding like copycats.
Have you heard their track 'Daydreaming'? Even more of an homage to The Edge's 'chime' sound...and one astoundingly good song composition. Power and beauty. Many a Maidiac's favourite.
@@philproffitt8363 Not yet. Thanks for the recommendation. Let me recommend the band Killing Joke, starting with Wardance from their first album. Musical history right there that influenced so many post-grunge, industrial and punk metal bands in the 1990s and beyond.
@@patrickholt2270 Just listened to Wardance...YEAH, that was hypnotic (first thoughts...better than Joy Division). I did have vinyl albums Night Time and Brighter Than A Thousand Suns but all I remember now is Love Like Blood and Rubicon. Don't know why I didn't re-buy on CD and also explore their past and future work. I'm gonna do some rediscovering. Cheers!!
@@philproffitt8363 I never had much money to spend on records, so after ska during the '80s I was just buying heavy metal. Killing Joke were on my radar but I didn't hear them on the radio so it was low priority. Then after Manchester and grunge when there was the big flowering of distorted guitar and Indie that what would earlier have been called punk in the 1990s, I was trying to follow all the post grunge and hardcore punk and punk metal that was happening with Skunk Anansie and Hundred Reasons and others that was combining elements of hardcore punk and metal on the way to metalcore. So when I got around to chasing up Killing Joke in the 2000s I had to change my whole picture of the history, because they started all this stuff way back in 1980. Their recent stuff is great too, including the weirdly prophetic "I Am The Virus".
@@patrickholt2270 Their Wiki is a good read...the influences and collaborations. An important band seemingly. Watched the 'Virus lyric video...a good comment on there: "Killing Joke...predicting the future since 1978" :-) There's a lot to discover...I skipped over them really, from classic rock to prog/indie with Depeche Mode sprinkled in. More than just the 'rocky Tears For Fears' I took them for :-))
Band Maid is the master of (many things) switching & mashing up genres. I suggest the following Band Maid songs: Manners, Dice, Bubble, No God (live), Warning (live) & Freedom (live)
Should check out Secret Maiko Lips. Official video not live. Where they incorporate traditional Japanese instruments into the song. They also dress as geisha's. Great video and once of saiki's best vocals. I think you would really enjoy it.
Many people have mentioned many BAND MAID songs sound like - Paramore, Rise Against, Guns n Roses, Motorhead, Buckethead, Pantera and many more. Depending on the song depends on who they "sound" like without it being that song. Example (in my opinion) would be DAYDREAMING has a U2 sound to it.
I was into the 90s and 2000s rock, alt rock, punk rock etc. Bandmaid fills all the boxes and adds a few more boxes that I didn't know I'd like. Feel like a lot of people that enjoyed that time frame of music would love bandmaid.also fair warning,imo, some songs take a few listens to fully take in
Well, I think the comparison with SotY, or that Misa's bass is reminiscent of RHCP, is not bad at all and has crossed my mind too already. It's just that these ladies here are pushing it up to 11 on the 10 scale. :) 🤘🏻 _____________________ 【 _Our rock never dies ever. Forever!_ 】- from BAND-MAID 'Manners' 🕊️
On their great side, Onset is not on the album. It was played live to rest Saiki, a vocalist who had voice problems. Their songs are composed by Kanami and improved by all the members. Their sounds do not collide, filling the gaps and shining everything. They enjoy instrumental music. Their Unseen World sheet music book comes with an instrument CD 13 songs.
Before Yesterday ( another so crimminally underreacted to song by them ) Daydreaming, Bubble and Endless Story ( one that's not reacted to all that much by others either ). Keep the Band Maid coming and keep up the good work. Stay safe and well always 😜😜😜
I got a bit of U2's Edge in some of the guitar sound. He used reverb/echo to build 'beefiness', like guitars 'dueling'. Band-maid are taking Rock forward. If they time-travelled back they'd blow minds. Ningen Isu is 'traditional' Japanese metal, eg. _Toshishun (with English lyric ver.)_ ua-cam.com/video/tKSjWKDSBmo/v-deo.html (7m48s), or _Heartless Scat_ ua-cam.com/video/CbI79e5iZKs/v-deo.html (8m27s) (use CC for English lyrics). AFAIK, their songs are based on traditional literature. Toshishun is very dark.
Have you heard their track 'Daydreaming'? Even more of an homage to The Edge's 'chime' sound...and one astoundingly good song composition. Power and beauty. Many a Maidiac's favourite.
@@garykeeling2275 Rush vibes with the bass/ tempo changes, Van Halen guitar and a drummer who cites Ian Paice as an influence. Tailor-made for my tastes.
@@gbulmer She, and the band, really shine live too. Their 'No God' Live for example...bass rather than guitar solo in this one...but lead guitar sounds like a synth at times.
Thanks for trying with Babymetal but they are renowned for blocking so don't endanger your channel in any way (said me, guiltily, after requesting Babymetal a couple of times. Band-Maid rarely block, if ever, as long as it's from their official YT channel and you give a link to the original video. They're nice like that.
You've got plenty of suggestions down below. And they are all brilliant. I will add to the list with the Live double offering of 'Manners' & 'Black Hole'. Two more completely different sounding songs. If you like MISA's bass, you will love these tracks. Of course all the other girls are brilliant too. It's available on their website.
It’s not one that a lot of people react to, but you should take a look at their “Don’t You tell ME” MV. It’s a good look at exactly what sort of maids they really are.
Right chillies was there in Cardiff with MJ, Bon Jovi, Cranberries. Best concerts. Seen Ed Sheeran& Ann-Marie awesome but different vibe. Times change.😂😂😂
No need to worry about who Band-Maid sounds like. After 118 awesome songs, seven albums, DVD/BD and mini / EP releases, and eight years of performing worldwide, Band Maid has earned their own place in style and sound. No other band sounds, looks, or plays like Band-Maid. When one hears RUSH or Foo Fighters, for example, we don't say, "They sound just like...?" From now on, we can just say, "Wow! They sound just like... Band-Maid!" 🤘😉👍
I love these girls when it comes to really good rock music 🤘 Especially songs like "Dice" ua-cam.com/video/ZpAYnVJX9CY/v-deo.html or "Blooming" ua-cam.com/video/uUt_JBMocKM/v-deo.html Akane (Drummer) will blow your mind in "Freedom" ua-cam.com/video/FHpuEqMAcDg/v-deo.html including an eargasm at its finest for my taste. Greetings from a BAND-MAIDIAC from Germany
Hey if you want to hear some Japanese punk/pop you should listen to Shonen Knife (3 pc girl band)they've been going for 40 years and still going strong. They're big Ramones fans. THIS IS A WORLD CLASS BAND. Their definitely no gimmick .
Relax and just enjoy, you will drive yourself crazy trying to put BM in a box. Every song is great and different. Kanami changes tone constantly, sometimes several times in one song. The most consistent instrument tone is Misa's bass. Miko's rhythm is fairly consistent as well
Sir, there is no correlation to other bands. That's why you are struggling to do it. This is purely Band Maid. It is what other bands wish they had sounded like. 😉🎸🥁🎸🎤🎸
I just watched your Band-Maid - Domination video and your mentioned your daughter likes anime and stuff. I think she (and you as well) would like music from the UA-camr Hoshimachi Suisei. She's a Virtual UA-camr (a regular UA-camr who uses an anime avatar; Vtuber for short). Some of her songs are "GHOST", "Stellar Stellar" (has English captions), "Starry Jet", and "Kakero"
Mincho says "JAWS The Revenge" is her fave film cos Michael Caine says "You were only s'posed to blow it's bloody jaws off". I didn't have the heart to tell her it's the greatest line in film history that never was. I'm good like that.🙂
Is that the Jaws film with the classic line from Caine when everything's hanging precariously in the balance at the climax, "We're going to need a bigger bus"?
Band-Maid always brings an ONSET of love, appreciation and happiness to their viewers. Why? Because they're so damn good -- good-natured, good-hearted, good-looking, and beyond good as writers, players and performers. Wow, right?! Thx, E-Beard!
Baby Metal are NOTORIOUS for blocking reaction videos. Good luck with that, you're gonna need it. Check out Rolling Quartz. They are a 5 girl Korean rock band. They are fairly new but really good.
It's all about the music for sure. This is a Rock instrumental to end all Rock instrumentals. There are NO egos in this band. Quite the opposite. All members are featured players. Everything they do is geared toward making the song as great as it can be. And they do not fail. Keep the momentum going with Band-Maid. Shout it out the BAND-MAID is Awesome and when they start their U.S. tour this year we'll all be there. Peace.
@@GaryHolloway-810 Truth be told! We all know Rush was great. That is fact. But this is NOW. This is happening NOW. We are witnessing maybe the most consistently and prodigious and diverse ROCK band ever. Non-believers be damned.
One thing, do NOT think you can pigeonhole Band Maid. Kanami's guitar influence is Santana and you don't hear any of that. I recommend "the non-fiction days". Also, Baby Metal is just a gimmick.
One reactor was reminded of Rage against the machine. Can it be that band you are thinking of when you say 2000s band? I love Band-Maid and Onw of their best songs is Moratorium. However, they have almost only good songs. You can pick and choose whatever you are suggested. They will be good songs.
I see you are looking at Japanese bands so give Wagakki Band - Homura + Akatsuki no Ito) This is from their 1st JAPAN Tour 2015 Hibiya Yagai Ongakudo. ua-cam.com/video/ponTbDDMYjw/v-deo.html You will not be disappointed.
Dude, Band-Maid is nothing like Story of the Year. Three Japanese bands with some similarity could be: 1. Cold drain ua-cam.com/video/eMl6PjmL2S4/v-deo.html 2. Crystal Lake ua-cam.com/video/xLI-MoS6vfM/v-deo.html & 3. Cross Faith ua-cam.com/video/Xz-X6eXxkV8/v-deo.html
My Friend, you are right. Here the lead guitar (Kanami) is more prominent but, maybe, in the next song is the spectacular bass (Misa) who is in command or Akane (drums) show us that she is the boss or Saiki crush you or Miku flashes with unexpected details. Also, we, the fans are waiting for the ecclosion of Miku (rityhm guitar and lyrics) as she was not capable to do anything more than sing poppier than needed, and we all know that she is working really hard to reach the level of her colleagues in the band. The band that she created from zero...zero. For your information, in Paris she did it her first solo, short, and it was a catharsis, a shock, between the audience. Kanami is teaching her and she said in an interview that Miku does things that she (Kanami) cannot do in pace and timing. Kanami is very excited with her. Will see but we are excited too
auugh no offense, but you really killed the flow of the song, my man. There's a difference between pausing during a song to mention relevant stuff, and pausing to go off on tangents, lol. Again, no insult meant, but I had to speak my mind, hee hee.
May I suggest Eluveitie "Deathwalker", "Isara", "Breath and "Artio" and maybe "Epona" and "A rose for Epona", there a mix of styles some that I don't think you've reacted too before iin "Isara and "Artio", they do keep popping up on reaction channels though so it might be beating the dead donkey content wise
like a... like a.... why american musicians name only? do you know when elctricguitar made first? long time ago. you should watch world music more. you are so young.

It’s not one that a lot of people react to, but you should take a look at their “Don’t You tell ME” MV. It’s a good look at exactly what sort of maids they really are.
Right chillies was there in Cardiff with MJ, Bon Jovi, Cranberries. Best concerts. Seen Ed Sheeran& Ann-Marie awesome but different vibe. Times change.😂😂😂
BAND MAID... un comparable to anything else.... don't drive yourself crazy 🤣🤣 Enjoy embrace!!!🤟🤟🤟👍👍thanks 👍👍🦧🍌🙏
No need to worry about who Band-Maid sounds like. After 118 awesome songs, seven albums, DVD/BD and mini / EP releases, and eight years of performing worldwide, Band Maid has earned their own place in style and sound. No other band sounds, looks, or plays like Band-Maid. When one hears RUSH or Foo Fighters, for example, we don't say, "They sound just like...?" From now on, we can just say, "Wow! They sound just like... Band-Maid!" 🤘😉👍
💯% agree 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I think you're probably ready for react to secret my lips live video or secret maiko lips (band maiko)
I love these girls when it comes to really good rock music 🤘
Especially songs like "Dice"
ua-cam.com/video/ZpAYnVJX9CY/v-deo.html
or "Blooming"
ua-cam.com/video/uUt_JBMocKM/v-deo.html
Akane (Drummer) will blow your mind in "Freedom"

including an eargasm at its finest for my taste.
Greetings from a BAND-MAIDIAC from Germany
As Chase Caneson said some time back . Band Maid doing Band Maid things ...
I am able to see👍👍👍👍👍💥💥💥💥💥💥💥😱😱😱😱👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
one of Kanami's (Guitar player) influences was Van Halen and Eddie in particular.
MISA MISA MISA!
Hey if you want to hear some Japanese punk/pop you should listen to Shonen Knife (3 pc girl band)they've been going for 40 years and still going strong. They're big Ramones fans. THIS IS A WORLD CLASS BAND. Their definitely no gimmick .
Shonen Knife are great, I agree. Musically influenced by Ramones, but lyrically another thing entirely 😂
Parts of this song remind me of Thrice and I love it!
Yeah band loves watching reactions. So they dont block there videos
Manners/Black hole. another live, yes, but recent. and even better than this. and a double whammy :)
Relax and just enjoy, you will drive yourself crazy trying to put BM in a box. Every song is great and different. Kanami changes tone constantly, sometimes several times in one song. The most consistent instrument tone is Misa's bass. Miko's rhythm is fairly consistent as well
Sir, there is no correlation to other bands. That's why you are struggling to do it. This is purely Band Maid. It is what other bands wish they had sounded like. 😉🎸🥁🎸🎤🎸
No, there's correlations. Otherwise I wouldn't try to make them.
I just watched your Band-Maid - Domination video and your mentioned your daughter likes anime and stuff. I think she (and you as well) would like music from the UA-camr Hoshimachi Suisei. She's a Virtual UA-camr (a regular UA-camr who uses an anime avatar; Vtuber for short). Some of her songs are "GHOST", "Stellar Stellar" (has English captions), "Starry Jet", and "Kakero"
Mincho says "JAWS The Revenge" is her fave film cos Michael Caine says "You were only s'posed to blow it's bloody jaws off". I didn't have the heart to tell her it's the greatest line in film history that never was. I'm good like that.🙂
Is that the Jaws film with the classic line from Caine when everything's hanging precariously in the balance at the climax, "We're going to need a bigger bus"?
😂
@@tonygriffin_ LMAO.😆 Yep that'd be the one. Classic dialogue :)
🚌💨🦈🌊🌊🌊
@@GaryHolloway-810 My favourite Caine line, though, is from the film 'Zulu' - "Maidiacs! Thousands of them!"
Band-Maid always brings an ONSET of love, appreciation and happiness to their viewers. Why? Because they're so damn good -- good-natured, good-hearted, good-looking, and beyond good as writers, players and performers. Wow, right?! Thx, E-Beard!
🍻
@@curtisrrobles7885 🍕🍕
@@TomClark-Futoura a good combination 🤙🏼
They are special!
Baby Metal are NOTORIOUS for blocking reaction videos. Good luck with that, you're gonna need it.
Check out Rolling Quartz. They are a 5 girl Korean rock band. They are fairly new but really good.
It's all about the music for sure. This is a Rock instrumental to end all Rock instrumentals. There are NO egos in this band. Quite the opposite. All members are featured players. Everything they do is geared toward making the song as great as it can be. And they do not fail. Keep the momentum going with Band-Maid. Shout it out the BAND-MAID is Awesome and when they start their U.S. tour this year we'll all be there. Peace.
I know i'm biased but this really is my fave instrumental of all time. 🤫Shh don't tell SNOWDOG, he'll mention something about Rush.😏
@@GaryHolloway-810 Truth be told! We all know Rush was great. That is fact. But this is NOW. This is happening NOW. We are witnessing maybe the most consistently and prodigious and diverse ROCK band ever. Non-believers be damned.
@@jkkansasband7056 I read thru your comment & really am left with nothing else to add.😮
@@GaryHolloway-810 Thanks Gary but I just called for the medics to stop by and check in on you.😎
A Rush instrumental vibe.
One thing, do NOT think you can pigeonhole Band Maid. Kanami's guitar influence is Santana and you don't hear any of that. I recommend "the non-fiction days". Also, Baby Metal is just a gimmick.
Two Ronnie's aldershot brass ensemble lol
One reactor was reminded of Rage against the machine. Can it be that band you are thinking of when you say 2000s band?
I love Band-Maid and Onw of their best songs is Moratorium. However, they have almost only good songs. You can pick and choose whatever you are suggested. They will be good songs.
Japanese music, it's like western music but without the drink and the drugs 😁🤘🤘
I see you are looking at Japanese bands so give Wagakki Band - Homura + Akatsuki no Ito) This is from their 1st JAPAN Tour 2015 Hibiya Yagai Ongakudo. ua-cam.com/video/ponTbDDMYjw/v-deo.html
You will not be disappointed.
Dude, Band-Maid is nothing like Story of the Year.
Three Japanese bands with some similarity could be:
1. Cold drain ua-cam.com/video/eMl6PjmL2S4/v-deo.html
2. Crystal Lake ua-cam.com/video/xLI-MoS6vfM/v-deo.html &
3. Cross Faith ua-cam.com/video/Xz-X6eXxkV8/v-deo.html
My Friend, you are right. Here the lead guitar (Kanami) is more prominent but, maybe, in the next song is the spectacular bass (Misa) who is in command or Akane (drums) show us that she is the boss or Saiki crush you or Miku flashes with unexpected details. Also, we, the fans are waiting for the ecclosion of Miku (rityhm guitar and lyrics) as she was not capable to do anything more than sing poppier than needed, and we all know that she is working really hard to reach the level of her colleagues in the band. The band that she created from zero...zero. For your information, in Paris she did it her first solo, short, and it was a catharsis, a shock, between the audience. Kanami is teaching her and she said in an interview that Miku does things that she (Kanami) cannot do in pace and timing. Kanami is very excited with her. Will see but we are excited too
Im a fan of this band! I recommend a reaction to Band Maiko- Secret Maiko Lips. Same band, it's part of their EP album. These girls rock!
auugh no offense, but you really killed the flow of the song, my man. There's a difference between pausing during a song to mention relevant stuff, and pausing to go off on tangents, lol. Again, no insult meant, but I had to speak my mind, hee hee.
React to Ningen Isu - Heartless Scat.
Note: Activate the subtitles.
BAND-MAID.
Doing.
BAND-MAID.
Things.
May I suggest Eluveitie "Deathwalker", "Isara", "Breath and "Artio" and maybe "Epona" and "A rose for Epona", there a mix of styles some that I don't think you've reacted too before iin "Isara and "Artio", they do keep popping up on reaction channels though so it might be beating the dead donkey content wise
Baby metal are nuts on blocking videos happens a lot. U ain't the first 👍👍
