"Freedom" and "Play" both from the shibuya show are great songs to react to for another live show. Freedom especially if you want to see Akane show off on the drums.
Bandmaid is simply the most talented hard rock band around today. There are no weak spots. They are brilliant in writing songs. Lovebites is another Japanese band that equals them in talent. There must be something in the water there. Both bands are amazing and if your like me, you will end up purchasing a lot of their music. 🤘🏻
They have the amazing all-female predecessor band "Show-ya". They are formed in 1981 and still active (they're pushing 60). I just found them today and the technique and vocal is incredible considering they were a 80s metal band. Now I have 30 years more b-m entertainment to look forward to.
When Akane walked out on stage fans gasped in terror cos they thought she had an extremely large head. Then they realised Akane was just wearing her little hat.
At 3:27 during Misa's bass solo, you'll notice she tucks her pick underneath her index finger so quickly that if you blink, you miss it.. and she doesn't even miss a beat.
Now you know how well they play live! How about checking out some insanely good songwriting stuff- Blooming MV or Wonderland live from their official channel. Enjoy your Band-maid journey!
You already did "Onset"! Nice... It´s a fantastic instrumental. It´s like a song and Kanami´s tapping (lead guitar) is like the voice that´s missing in the "chorus". It´s their song to give Saiki (lead vocal) a break for her voice. Some other facts for you: MISA (bass) and Akane (drums) are killer. They are best friends and playing as an rhythm section since 10-15 years. They had the same music school and both have learned jazz there, so it´s easy for them to improvise and it always sounds like they are doing their own thing, but so precise and well-thought it fits perfect! Kanami (lead guitar) is writing most of the songs and Miku (back vocals and rhythm guitar) is writing the lyrics with her. So they are writing their own songs since right about 5 years and there is no casting behind this group like it´s usual in asia regions! Their chemistry is off the charts in my opinion and the reason they are the best rockband IMO! And they are only 30 years old or a little bit younger... Greetings again from Germany, nice you are enjoying them, it´s a great bunch of friends!
Congratulations you have landed on the best active Hard Rock Band in the world. The are all Top-Notch Musicians and damn good songwriters. They incorporate the Best elements if Metal, Hard Rock, Funk, Punk and Pop. Their extensive catalog draws from those element to form a unique sound of their own. I have yet to hear a track that you can call subpar. My personal favorite tracks are: Puzzle (live), Moritorium (Live), Play (live), Real Existence (live/MV), Secret My Lips (live/MV), Renne (MV), Dice (MV), Alone (MV), Turn Me On (Live) better stop there otherwise I will list all if them.
BAND-MAID support comment! Glad you enjoyed the song. It's always fun to see a reactor really appreciate how good they are to the point their eyes kinda bug out. 0_o
I get a ton of suggestions but Band Maid really stood out to me. After the first minute I knew I was hooked. I can’t wait to keep going down the pigeon hole!
Technical excellence on show here...and I'm sure Band-Maid fans love that moment when Miku is almost alone, sawing that rhythm guitar in half...then bass and guitar crash in and carry their little 'pigeon' upwards until she soars like an eagle.
"The bass player keeps steeling the show..." MISA MISA MISA. The ladies are all immensely talented, but the rhythm section is what always really grabs me. Misa and Akane are masters of their instruments and together always just groove so hard. Of course take that foundation and then throw Kanami's master guitar work, Saiki's amazing voice, and Miku adding her layers of harmonies and rhythm guitar, and it's just straight unmatched bad-assery. We are truly lucky and blessed to live in a age where these ladies exist, found each other, and the internet exists so the rest of the world can enjoy their magic.
You have a good ear for what is happening. Kanami on lead guitar is a master in playing with the timing. If you want to see and hear more of Akane's and her drums, there is only one recommendation: "Freedom" live from their February 2020 concert.
Listen to anything from the Feb. 14th 2020 performance. Domination, Freedom, Choose Me, Wonderland, and Play are the ones they have on their official YT channel.
Very nice reaction!! Onset is really a great performance❤ Maybe next song, like mentioned by others, freedom live... or basically any other live performance because its just all great. Just relax and enjoy the ride!!
Why the hell would you want to move on to something else. Band Maid is the most beautiful and amazing band on the planet. and you have not even scratched the surface of this band Nothing else compares ,,,,:-)
In case you didn't notice, aside from being the best rock drummer on the planet, Akane is also a stone cold FOX! 5'6" of HOTT! Check out her Instagram page...girl could be a fashion model.
Nice reaction. These gals have a ton of great songs to enjoy. I'd recommend Secret My Lips from their YT channel, Puzzle live (full band version) and Moratorium.
If you want emotion, you need to ask someone to send you the acoustic versions of Puzzle and Anemone from the Zepp Tokyo concert !! Just Saiki the lead singer, Kanami the lead guitarist and an acoustic guitar !! Saiki's vocals will impress and so will Kanami's backing vocals !!
There is a thing with Japanese bands being so good that seem to leave the rest of the world behind at the moment. Band Maid are the best heavy rock band in the world today. If you want some other Japanese bands that a bit heavier try: Unlucky Morpheus - Black Pentagram Lovebites - Shadowmaker The Gazette - Ugly Fate Gear - Headless Goddess
@@JimGames Yu could also try Glim Spanky, a folk rock band with a 70's sound and look and the singer has such a beautiful voice: ua-cam.com/video/nqdgInoS-zo/v-deo.html
I would not call this "showing off" ALL of their songs are of this caliber. This song was written to give Saiki (and Miku) a singing break. Play was supposed to be the song that did that but they liked it so much that they added lyrics and made it an Audience participation song (not that the other songs weren't already!). So for more of the same style listen to PLAY
I second the recommendation for "Freedom". As you noted, the bassist and the drummer are both outstanding. I'd rate them the best back line in rock since Rush's Neil Peart and Geddy Lee. Here is the link to "Freedom": ua-cam.com/video/FHpuEqMAcDg/v-deo.html
Although Akane performs a solid drum solo in Freedom I'd probably recommend watching "Secret My Lips". That one shows the band's writing skills... they write and arrange their own music. Unfortunately this version of Secret My Lips, from their UA-cam channel, is a music video (of a live performance) and not of their actually, stellar live performance video of the song.
They never released this on CD, it was only a live concert piece, known as "Saiki's pee break" because they slotted it in the middle of their concerts to give her a break. You can hear their jazz, fusion, prog and punk influences, among other things. I hope you do more than just one more, because they have a catalogue of around 90 songs posted around youtube, and I've never heard a dud, except when it's a fancam and the quality is poor.
Unfortunately we're going to find out that their life is totally different from their Studio I mean it just so much better these rules are in their element live
@@JimGames I thought since you're almost done with rammstein it's time to present you a new german song that has hit like a bomb in the last 6 months.
No,No, No, No...... They are just keeping the crowd warm while Saiki goes to the bathroom to "fix her make-up". Other songs..... Blooming Rinne Domination.... both Live and MV Play...Live Choose Me Bubble The Dragon Cries Daydreaming Secret My Lips Secret Maiko Lips Gion Cho Cross Anemone Don't You Tell Me Glory Wonderland The Non Fiction Days Alone Don't Let Me Down Awkward ........ to name a few
ONSET the best rock instrumental song all time
Drumming you say? “Freedom” live video please :). But yes Akane the drummer is always in beast mode!
Akane looks soo happy when she does her drum solo in that live performance
"Freedom" and "Play" both from the shibuya show are great songs to react to for another live show. Freedom especially if you want to see Akane show off on the drums.
Thank you! I’ll add them to next weeks list.

One more song? It’s got to be DOMINATION live at Line cube Shibuya, 14 Feb 2020.
well I meant one more songs for this batch of videos 🤣 Next week I got a ton more planned.
Freedom live
The talent these ladies have is really on display here, incredible.
It is always fun watching people react to this song. The guitar work and bass solo gets them all the time.
Ah! You were undoubtedly stunned for more than a minute during their solos. Amazing, aren't they?
Puzzle and Moratorium live if you can find them will make your day.

Band Maid is awesome! Great instrumental song, I think EVH would approve! Best rock band on the planet at the moment, and one of the best ever, IMHO!

Oh lord, this man got attacked by Onset for his second reaction. His poor body. (This song is overwhelmingly amazing).

Well if your only going to do one more I vote for "Secret my lips" but I doubt you can resist doing more. 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
I agree! Every new BM song will be your new favorite. They are hit machines!
One more this week 😉
