⏩ Video Question: Which movie have you seen the most? As in like 10 times or more??
I loved both these songs but Black Hole is just EPIC
For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
The Godfather 1 & 2, Goodfellas, Casino. As a reference Manners was the 9th song of this 2 hour online streamed concert and Black Hole was the 21st and next to last song. Just putting Black Hole in your setlist is impressive but putting it next to last and nailing it! Two great contrasting songs. The groovy bluesy Manners is one of my favorites then for the Live they add that cool intro (which Band-Maid loves to do). Take a peek at the Manners MV (a bit fuller sound for some reason).
Bad brains used to be my top band, because they were versatile and the drummer was interesting and amazing, now bandmaid is my no.1 because they are versatile, creative and Akane's drumming is creative, versatile, interesting = the pure joy.
But of course it's all the different ingredients creating the amazing art that keeps intriguing me.
Pulp Fiction, Godfather 1 and 2 and Apocalypse Now would all vie for most watched but the winner would have to be 'Eat, Drink, Man, Woman', an early Ang Lee film.
Most watched…
Hmm, Serenity maybe.
These two songs are on the “Unseen World” album. I have enjoyed this album more than just about any other. For me it ranks with “Paranoid” “Dark Side of the Moon” or “Tommy.”
Close Encounters of the Third Kind. I am a big fan of Richard Dreyfuss
13:46 "I'm sorry, I gotta rewind... ...on the first listen, there's just too much."
Most Band-Maid songs, in a nutshell.
Black Hole is like reading Alice In Wonderland in three minutes.
That's accurate
I'm stealing that comment for later reference....i mean borrowing.😁
@@GaryHolloway-810 my pleasure 😄
Best analogy I've heard in a long long time Doc.
@@GaryHolloway-810 No. Go ahead and say steal cause that way he gets the insurance. If you borrow it, he gets nothing! 🤣
If Band-Maid is a rabbit hole, then Black Hole is the "falling-into-it" part.
Pigeon Hole my dude. ;)
🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Your reaction on "Black Hole" is one of my favourite reactions, so far. I'm watching it the third time now, 'cause I need a little help getting to fully understand the complex and chaotic brilliance this song is. Well done, Tony!
Btw, I was scrolling through your Band-Maid reactions and you still haven't reacted to the official live version of Hate?
Congrats! About "Black Hole". Believe me, at first many people didn’t believe they could play it live. But they did it easily. If you can I think you can listen to the studio version because Akane's "footwork" isn't really audible here.
I think you may be hooked now Tony! Welcome to the club! They reeled me in hook line and sinker about a year and a half ago. The world is a better place with Band-Maid in it!
Yes! I just realised...over 2 years since I crossed the event horizon (slippery edge of pigeon hole) 🤟🤟🤟
More than any other reactor, you seem to instantly grasp the magnificence of BLACK HOLE. It gets better with repeated listening. The best part is the “musical theater” vocal interlude near the end.
MANNERS impresses with how this simple song starts slowly with a super-groovy drum and bass duet (not found on the studio recording), and then the musical intensity builds with each verse until it reaches a wonderful crescendo.
KOBATO and SAIKI create wonderful harmonies in both songs, and as a lead vocalist SAIKI is incomparable.
The Band describes manners as their "Core Sound" while "Black Hole" was them experimenting with different things musically. I would recommend their instrumental "Onset-Live". Enjoyed!
When you listen to "Onset" live pay attention to the bass solo to see how effortless Misa can switch playing styles!
*Band Maid - No God* needs to be next!
Yep it's the right thing to do.🤷♂️
I agree 👍
I will add that to the rotation soon
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Ok, go for No God but put a helmet on your head trying to keep all the neurons packed. No God is a lovely brutality...keep going as we love your reactions ! ( I forgot to say that you have seen nothing yet )
This is what I like about this band, the bassist, drummer and lead guitarist are amazing and the compositions are always interesting and have a great balance between being technical and being catchy
Don't forget the vocals. Saiki-san doesn't like to show off, but she is top-notch. The same goes for Kobato-san, her background vocals are always rounding out the songs perfectly.
Absobloodylutely.@@Gaius__
This would be the reaction where I finally subscribe. You're one of us already....
Genius reaction to genius music- love your insight into the music. You got the full spectrum of their music here and you are on your way to becoming a Maidiac. Manners- Classic blues rock fusion, 1969-71. Black Hole- Hard rock/metal. Subject- astrophysics. Genre- Band-Maid. All lyrics by Miku (red rose). The tuning of Akane's drums are to die for. Love the ring out on the snare.
The tuning is SO good!
Great reaction Tony. A unique and diverse band for sure. I Love Manners. But I would have never thought I would like a song like Black Hole. But I do Love it. Maybe it's because BAND-MAID is just too Awesome! Peace.
"Back Hole" never instantly hit me either, now i recognise the genius of Mincho's composition :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 Is it possible to continually praise Band-Maid? Yeah, I think it is. I have complete reverence for them. And Mincho in particular. 😎
@@jkkansasband7056 Yes it is possible. I've never been able to find faults in anything they do....except Mincho's 5 double faults at tennis on Wednesday. Tch.😒
@@GaryHolloway-810 LOL. Good thing that was no fault of yours. 🎾
@@jkkansasband7056 Lol. Mincho may look kawai but believe me she's got a sharp tongue if you mess up.😬
This is why i love this band they have such range
Misa’s pick rests between her right pointer and middle fingers when she slaps. If you watch closely on Onset Live you can see the transition and it’s seamless and fast.
Slick!
You facial expressions said it all!! It never gets old watching actual musicians get their minds blown by BAND-MAID! Thanks! 🤘🤯🤘
I think you can understand why so many of us love this band more than any other today. They are the complete package in the manner of the greatest rock bands - in terms of excellence in rock music composition, arrangement, instrumentation, playing and performance - there are few others as complete as Band-Maid as evidenced yet this twofer. And still, this just scratches the surface of their versatility and skill. And even if you don’t care about any of that, as a listener, they just make great rock music. Even a casual listener has a great melody to latch onto.
They are a very special band and why I say we’re living in the era of Band Maid right now more so than any other band - they are setting the high-bar for all rock music today, imho.
Misa just loves to play Funky bass lines. So cool. She plays so many different styles.
Like I've said before, Kanami writes music on a Rubik's Cube. It gets all twisted around, but the puzzle is all solved at the end. She's a genius.
You just came up with the perfect description of Kanami's savant-like musical composition skills. And yes, she is a genius.
@@mikeat2637 Thanks man. Yeah. If I were 40 years younger, I would make it a mission to marry that beautiful woman. As much for her musical mind as the rest of her. Especially those gorgeous eyes. Don't judge me man. It's my dream. I'll dream what I want. Ha! Ha! Cheers.
@@785boats Never judge, lest ye be judged and found wanting, and I DON'T want that happening to me, lol.
I feel compelled to bestow an award for best drumming via mouth noises I've ever heard from anyone. The award is meaningless considering the source, and it comes with no trophy to display other than this comment. Excellent analysis and points made as well. Thanks for the fun hang!
LMAO I'll take your award. humbled 🙂
It gets bigger, it gets bigger.
Misa's understanding of the bass is pretty unreal, she knows when to pick, when to slap and when to finger style and she knows how to do it very well, like pro level.
And to answer your question, Goodfellas. I was obsessed with that movie, just the way it was made and how from even before the credits start all the way to the end is just so interesting and so entertaining and the constant halarious profanity, just so much fun to watch.
Edit: that way you described black hole was actually pretty accurate in a metaphorical way. Song is all over the place but in a fun and exciting way.
Manners is SUCH a great song for a live performance with a crowd that knows the song well and joins in with Miku's ha-ha-ha-ha exactly on cue. It is very different than any of their other songs but that bluesy feel is just perfect when you factor in the lyrics. It does remind me of some of what Glim Spanky does with their excellent bluesy rock compositions. And Black Hole is.........well...........Black Hole, a banger.
thanks for your reaction, appreciate it, since misa is my absolute bass idol. if you could you would repeat every second again cause their compositions are so versatile.
Love the bass heavy feel of Manners. If someone can get Tony the live videos of "Take Me Higher" and "Don't You Tell Me" from a few years ago, he may enjoy hearing the back and forth between MISA and Kanami during the solos.
Would love to hear that
@@DrumRollTonyReacts make sure they are from the Zepp Concert.
@P in D 2 provide him Matchless Gum and Awkward from Shinkiba Studio Coast show
@@Puyax01 Those are the ones I meant.
@P in D 2 nice, the live versions of both are waaay above the studio version.
Kanami (lead guitar and composer) is a mad genius, and her bandmates are masters in adding their own touches. If you really want to see how they all come together Band Maid Prime is worth it.
1st song is a lazyboy to relax in to enjoy. 2nd song is a sledge hammer to cave your chest in
That was a great reaction/analyses! Really enjoyed you going back and pointing out various things a non-musician, like myself, wouldn't overtly notice.You're right about not being able to pick up on everything happening on the first listen. There's just so much going on it's impossible. Every song they put out is at least as dense as a 5 layer cake. All 5 members are always doing something interesting, and Kanami manages to blend it all together perfectly. Doesn't matter if it's controlled chaos (Black Hole) or bluesy, funk rock (Manners), BAND-MAID can play it all!
I would LOVE to see a break down after you have listened to it a few times through. Things that you didn't catch in this video. Normally I don't like reactors that pause and rewind a lot, but you provide an analysis on what you heard. And that make it great to watch.
Thanks! I'm glad you like the style
The last 10 seconds of Manners contain music and voice recorded backwards with some curious effects. Of course forty thousand Maidiacs have already turned over those seconds to see what happened. A woman's voice (Miku?) seems to sing "I was thinking about you". Nice job! and thank you.
Thanks Tony! That was great!
Welcome to the pigeon hole.... Jaw dropping performance
Kanami is a genius songwriter, and everyone in the band is fantastic playing. Nice review!
Yeah, hearing Black Hole for the first time tends to do that to people.
Wait till you hear Giovanni or Why-why-why
lol...
Two sides of the multi-faceted jewel that is Band-Maid. Obi-Wan Kanami's composing skills are Mozart level and Miku's lyrics are up there with Lennon/McCartney or Dylan in levels of depth and meaning. Then you've got the best rhythm section I've seen (and I've seen Bonham and JPJ, Moon and Entwistle and Bruce and Baker) and a vocalist who sings with real passion and emotion and who can move through 3 octaves with ease ('Wonderland' live 2020, a Saiki showcase - ua-cam.com/video/x4hxLeHbqZo/v-deo.html ). Apparently, so the story goes, 'Black Hole' was a challenge by Kanami to Akane, after asking her if she could manage 200 BPM and Akane replying "Hold my beer..." or something similar, which was when Kanami upped the ante to 220 BPM...to which Akane probably replied "Hold my other beer. I may need two hands for that." Apocryphal but maybe (mostly) true.
I've heard Kanami Tsunami but Obi-Wan Kanami is also a good one I hadn't heard before
@@ernestrimbeck7630
Kanami has stated that being compared to a tsunami is really hurtful to her, as she sees those as terrible, disasters that kill men, women and children. So Obi Wan Kanami is BRILLIANT!💪🏻🤘🏻
🎶Lol Obi-Wan Kanami. I like that 😆🤟 The Mozart comparison is not tangible for me as chamber music, opera and orchestral works have such a different demand and creation process. I really dig them for them. Excited to be learning about this band. 🙌
@@DrumRollTonyReacts It was more a comment about her being as good as someone I think of as composing the most intricate and beautiful music ever but I totally see what you're saying - different levels of composition and content. There are a couple of short orchestral openings that Kanami has written (for the songs Warning! and Sense, for instance) but writing a ' Deus Irae' or 'Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen' is probably beyond even her high skills. Always wondered what Mozart would have made of the electric guitar and modern keyboards! Thanks for liking Kanami's new name!. I was inspired by the recent Star Wars poster and edited the image to include Kanami and altered text. And a glowing blue guitar neck! It's here on UA-cam ( ua-cam.com/video/QYDt-TJmfkU/v-deo.html ) though I've also got a Facebook page of my Band-Maid Art too.

The Unseen World album...well you haven't hear the whole album😆🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love Black-Hole!
A New Hope. Saw it first in Theatre in '77. I can not tell you how many times I have watched it, probably 30 or more.
When Band Maid want to groove, they can really groove. For me Kanami is the stand out in the MV of Manners, this live version it's the rhythm section both Misa and Akane, in both versions the vocals particularly the harmonies are outstanding. There are plenty of other songs that will give you more sides to BM, Start Over (Miku's request for a Karaoke song and the bonus of Kanami on piano at Saiki's request) is on repeat for me at the moment.
Kanami is the master and we our her puppets !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAhahaha she can take us for a ride that never ends !!!!!!!!!!!
They are the best rock and roll ever! You eventually get past that I hope and really realize what these girls are about. They are amazing! If you can't tell they are kind of mad.
The very definition of an eargasim.... Loved your response....
It's just Band Maid doing Band Maid things...so much more awesomeness to hear from their catalog! Great job and keep them coming. 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
Ok for one, manners is hands down my favorite band-maid song because it is exactly the kind of music I love to play. I damn near daily play along to it with headphones on and my bass unplugged to my wife and daughter's dismay lol. The juxtaposition between manners and black hole is precisely why this band has become my favorite. I listen to so many rock bands because they scratch different musical itches. This band, on almost every track written by them, tends to scratch every musical itch I have. THEN on top of that they have the audacity to be the funniest live act I've seen with music outside of bo burnam.
The track is an entire BASS solo. 🤘
Hell yea
Love Band-Maid! The movie I have watched the most is The 5th Element. It is a great Sci-Fi action/adventure comedy.
Multi pass
Movie: Repo Man. So, these two, expecially Black Hole, show where the songwriter, Kanami (lead guitar), has progressed to. The others say she keeps challenging them and they love it. Akane (drums) and MISA (bass) are becoming monsters. Both songs show the increasingly sophisticated collaboration between Miku (lyricist) and Saiki on the vocal arrangements. Check out Blooming. Another complete change-up and example of what they can do now.
Second Blooming and also seconding or thirding Onset. but I also feel he should listen to Alone, to hear where they Ladies have come from with their writing until now.
Loving your reactions Tony. I have never had any music education and don’t play any instruments. I just love listening to great music and these ladies never disappoint. Thank you for articulating what I am hearing but don’t have the words for.
Which Band Maid song next..... From "Manners" ??.... maybe "The Dragon Cries" (English lyrics), "Choose Me", "Bubble"...etc..... (Yeah, there's more) From "Black Hole" ?? .... "Rinne", "Different" or "Sence",
Then we have soooooo many songs that lie in the middle .....
I know everybody said it already, in dozens of Band-Maid videos, but ... the talent and skill level of those ladies is truly mind-blowing.
And, as always, a shout out to their sound engineer, who is a master of balance as well as to the video director/editor.
It's very interesting to hear a professional musician point out little details which for us laymen are very hard to detect.
It makes me enjoy and appreciate the music even more.
Next Band Maid song? Easy - _All_ of them. ;) Great job Tony - musician ears always make good reactions if they can convey some of these ideas.
Kanami "A-Chan how many BPM can you do" - A-Chan "About 190" ... Kanami "Next song will be 220 :)". Love these Women!
Band-Maid is awesome! These are great songs off of their latest album, if you like Blackhole live, the studio version is just insane... in fact all the songs on the Unseen World album diverse and complex. Thanks for the reaction.
A wonderful reaction that gives the girls the appreciation they so rightfully deserve. Thank you so much!
Great reaction! It's been a couple months since I first time listened to this band and I really do appreciate the insightful comments like yours. Pointing out and explaining how it's unique and complex. Every each time I listen to Band-Maid songs, I discover crazy little fills and techniques they play, which is pure joy. Now I understand why many of the professional musicians, including Jimmy Page, like them so much.
REALLY nice to see someone with excellent rhythmic intelligence appreciate this song. I see a lot of reactors get lost in the complexity and call it "chaotic". And while there is an element of chaos, it's fully intentional and totally under control. Such a genius piece of songwriting and playing.
Thanks! I love this band. Makes you want to practice
This is why I love listening to intelligent musicians react to BM. As a non-musician I actually learn stuff. I've heard both songs numerous times and yet you've pointed out some details I didn't catch the first 100 times. Also, you're delivery and descriptions are of high end quality. After doing more BM I hope you connect with some of my other favourite reactors such as Ryan Mear, Wave Potter and Dicodec. These reactors have become BM fanatics and their banter is fun to watch. I think you'd fit right in with them. More BM suggestions- try Real Existence (a hard rock banger) live and Onset ( an instrumental masterpiece) live. Cheers from Canada
I just found your reaction and is great that u get all the details and technical addons the song has. btw if it was hard to follow the tempo its because the song black hole was composed in 220 bpm
Keep up the good work
I'm very happy that you enjoyed Black Hole. It can be a very challenging piece, because even if the feel and pace is right up their with their typical punk/metal style, gone are the hooky choruses and happy melodies, replaced with the frantic orchestrated chaos that evokes the image of a well-seasoned crew attempting to navigate a black hole. And it seriously paints that picture, even using musical cues from classic sci-fi.
I've seen a lot of reactors miss the imagery entirely, but given your prior reactions I was pretty confident you'd instantly be able to get what they were doing.
"Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah!" - Miku Kobato
Remember, BAND-MAID is essentially a group of jazz musicians playing hard rock in relatively small venues.
re ShikataGaNai----you put the whole thing perfectly, I think !.
!......"...essentially a group of jazz musicians playing hard rock....."-
-----Yes! absolutely yes ! They have always given me that impression.
And since "pure" jazz always commits suicide by disappearing up its own introverted rectum, it is creative wisdom for them to to use it cleverly obliquely. -----(purifying jazz is like purifying coffee---all the way down to raw caffeine! ) --------It never works.
So hard rock is their vehicle of choice :-- And they make free use of super-chargers !
"Black Hole" is what happens when the sly shepherds decide to allow a stampede----along a particular path known only to themselves !
Band-Maid and BABYMETAL are in league own! Great reaction!
Manners is a late 60's, early 70's style bluesy & groovy rock song.
Great minds etc. In my comment I put 1969-71. Like a lot of US bands at that time, blues rock with soul vocals. There were also a lot of UK bands that coppied their style- Snafu, Juicy lucy, Byzantium etc.
Excellent reaction. I'm late to the party watching your reaction (busy weekend). This is a musician's band - everything they do is so deliberate and well thought-out. You pointed out how they passed around the rhythmic phrases; they do that stuff all the time and it's really interesting to find little things that you've missed the first two dozen times you heard it. This is not a band for "first time listening" reaction videos. You will find this whole crowd will love it if you do a "in-depth analysis" to almost any of their songs. There are some other channels (like "Jbf Music & Guitar") who have done similar - even making 30 minute videos of a 3 minute song, delving into each instrument. The more you listen, the more you hear.
Regarding the comparison to Mozart: I understand the hyperbole but there's two centuries difference and a much different tradition. But I do think Kanami Tono thinks of the total band as one instrument where everything is integrated together to create a whole. In the case of "Black Hole," I suspect the entire frantic nihilistic feeling of the piece reflects her experience with the sudden isolation from her family and friends in the early days of the COVID pandemic. While the lyrics are about a literal physical black hole, it seems to me to be a metaphor for what threatens us without our usual social connections to each other. Or not; maybe she just read Carl Sagan and wanted to write a song about it. Songs like this make me want a 20 minute piece of music from her.
What will amaze you,is that BM jump in and out of so many genre,s is mind blowing,and they kill every one,how many bands can do that,,Onset ,live instrumental is a stunner,also,Secret my lips ,official is drum heavy,and again a stunner,,,,they dont do naff songs,great reaction.
These 2 songs played back to back like this really show their versatility. Misa and Akane really carried Manners. And MIku's yeah yeah yeah is just positively adorable! And Black Hole can only be described as organized, beautiful chaos. I cannot wait to hear these songs live in October!
Tony: Been a Band-Maid fanboy from the first few bars I heard about 5 years ago. Have heard a lot of reactors & reactions. Really enjoy your reactions and expert insights.
As far as Black Hole is concerned, you see that big smile on Akane's face, she loves this tempo. This was Kanami's speed challenge to Akane, she asked how fast can you go - about 190 said Akane so Kanami came back with 220
Yeah, I heard (and it's probably not true but ...) when Kanami said '220' Akane said "I can't play that' and Kanami just said "&1&2&3&4"!!
No crowd at the Okyuji = no hyped performance. It's difficult to get the same rush when you're only playing live to cameramen :)
Yeah, they were a bit sleepy on Black Hole weren't they? 😁 Just kidding, I can't imagine how HECTIC this song will be in front of an audience!
@@realdocloco Thx Doc, you answered the exact point i was making.👍 B-M will pull out all the stops in Oct to make those shows their best ever (until they play London😏)
LOL Black Hole was hyped as a MF
October cannot come fast enough
It was hilarious when they were walking around set at the end tho.
I'm happy you are continuing this journey with B-M. They have been an exciting band and people to keep up with, to enjoy just being artists and human.
Great react, man! Subbed. Band-Maid's a pretty diverse band, just when you think you've nailed it, they swerve a different direction. But in a good way. There is definitely a Band-Maid sound and the composition is so consistently great that it's hard to believe sometimes. Recs for next: if you like the more prog side of Band-Maid then check out more of their recent full album Unseen World (most of its album tracks are on their official site, so fair game for reactors--Giovanni, H.G.K., I Still Seek Revenge, etc.). But I wouldn't forget the many masterpieces from previous albums: Rinne, Wonderland, Fate, YOLO, etc.
Welcome on board.
Unseen World is an amazing album start to finish and Black Hole is the cherry on top. It’s so complex it sometimes feels like they are playing two complimentary songs at the same time.
i KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING !!!!! almost Hypnotic but yet symphonic , Dream theater was good for this using multiple musicians !!!!!!
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 I defer to other knowledgeable fans like Tony Griffin for info / analysis about these two songs and B-M. What I want to say is that Misa's bass phrases in Manners always stimulate peristaltic motion of my intestines in a good way. I do not know why though 😄
Carnival ride what a descriptor Manners is one of my favorite Band-Maid songs although I like the music video version better, I do love Misa and Akane intro for the live version Akane has sneaky kicks, sometimes you don't know they're there until they're not and sometimes they come in out of nowhere I also love that slow pick slide Miku does in Manners
Really enjoyed your reaction, thank you!
Hope that the next reaction is Warning MV.
The most beautiful and amazing band on the planet and you haven't heard anything yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For even greater variety, try WONDERLAND (live) and DAYDREAMING (MV).
Misa on bass is world class. When its all said and done she will go down in history as one of the greats of her time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (edit) she already is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At the end where it goes LALALA. the guitar went full perfect sync with the singer :)
Love the carnival ride metaphor. It's not their only tune that visits the carnival, but it is the one that most gives me the feeling I'm going to fall off at some point.
🎪
Apparently the story is Jimmy page was in Tokyo and caught one of their shows. He asked to go back stage and meet the drummer he was so impressed.
Manners is the event horizon to the Blackhole
The Sound Of Music I watch almost every year since I was a teenager. I am now 60.
IMO the best rock band going today......Just pick a song...They are all great!
Just buckle up man. If that's only three videos you ain't seen nothing yet! These girls are amazing best rock and roll I've ever heard and I'm 66 there are all one and they don't take no BS and if you don't understand their words they play it through their instruments that's the way they roll. Please listen to their words they are a movement.. you go girls! Band made forever listen to the words dude not the music
Well, lol, I do listen to the music as that's my main draw in so I can't really shut that off
@@DrumRollTonyReacts well that's really what got me listening to him too at first. I'm all about them jamming like they do they are so tight. To me there's not one leader on this band they're all leaders. But now that it's been 5 years that I've been listening to them. And I've seen every one of their videos. I'm just amazed at what they're actually capable of doing. And what they mean
If you think "Black Hole" is a complicated song then you need to listen to "Corallium" from their latest EP.
16:23 😝🙌🏻
👍
Thanks Rollen! Sense was written specifically for the Japanese anime Platinum End.
Beer and multi-tab browsing don't mix. It's not big and it's not clever... :)
MISA is basically playing lead guitar...on her bass.
MISA's pick is never gone......you just can't see it. "Manners" what can you say but good ole rock. It took me many listens to snuggle up to Black Hole but as I hear more talented musicians, like yourself< break it down it gets better and better. At first it was total CHAOS!! Not it's becoming another Masterpiece of musical talent.....DAMN these girls can kick some ass with precision....
I kind of feel that Black Hole is composer Kanami's great work. She puts all her virtuoso crazy ideas into one swirling, overwhelming song -- and while you are reeling from the intensity, Saiki calls out "Are you ready? Let's go!" You mean, we weren't already going top speed? This is concentrated Band Maid -- straight after you groove to their funky blues Manners. They make a perfect pair to show off the versatility of Band-Maid -- they do blues, they do thrash, and in other songs you will see they also do acoustic ... But go watch Gion-cho (by their alter ago Band-Maiko) for yet another side to their brilliance.
Tony... I think you'd like Band-Maid's "No God." And about 100+ others.
There is no genre
There is BAND-MAID!
Perfect!
Fun you mentioned Wizard of Oz . That movie was on TV every year when I was a kid. I also rented Conan the Barbarian a lot.
Conan!!!!👏
They are the greatest hard rock band for the last 30-40 years or so! Obviously the musicians are more than amazing...but take your time to listen to Saiki and Miku and their vocal gymnastics.
I'm sucker for interesting drumming. Akane's drum fills are very creative, playful, fluid, melodic and fit the song. All five of them take the lead role and work perfectly as a team. Just listening to Akane alone is entertainment in itself but when everything comes together it's just like art. Band-Maid sound is very evocative of the song title.
I love her drumming in Moratorium and Sayonakidori, in particular although I love her drumming even in the rare songs that I don't really like.
Another brother is Don't You Tell Me live. Kanami on lead guitar and Misa on bass have a back and forth with each other. Great little battle that will definitely show you some serious chops.
Kanami is a musical genius.
As a composer I think that she is destined for wider recognition in the future- Orchestrated film scores etc. But not yet!
@@RTEcalcite01 I'm waiting for her to go totally prog down the road at some point. It's interesting that she, Misa and Akane have all gone to music school. I was immediately attracted by their musicality years ago when I first heard them. They sound familiar but with a unique approach. My father had a Master's degree in music and my mother a Bachelor's degree although she would have had her Master's had she taken her boards. I'm not a musician myself but I played in a traditional situation up to the University level. I did grow up with it both instrumentally and vocally. I can feel the talent oozing out of this band and they all just keep getting better and better. I ought their discography and believe me when I say you have a long, fun ride ahead of you.
You have been Band Maid love it 😀
WARNING! (Your next B-M song?) It's bad MANNERS to stop listening to Band-Maid because you'll feel starved for musical excellence and joy and fall into a BLACK HOLE of emptiness... probably! 😵 Thx, Tony!
