More Band-Maid smiles! Happens every damn time! Thx for playing Domination for Mixi, Joel!
I just loved how she was bopping along with the music and really getting into it.
I love this series so much! Never stop having people on.
Great series, you've dropped Mixi into the biggest rabbit hole in the world, she'll never get out.
So, Lovebites, BAND-MAID and Nemophila. All right choices for this lady. Then maybe Hanabie, if time allows.
I think Mixi would love Hanabie.
Agreed!
There is a mindset common in the US that no other countries exist. But as we know, there is a world of amazing musical talent just waiting to be discovered from other countries. Joel is doing a great job getting the message out there that these bands exist.
Part of that is the music industry gatekeepers
You mean there's other countries?
@@warfossilnah, we filthy foreigners are just a figment of your collective imagination.
HELLO 777PHOEBE! DID YOU EVER RESEARCH "COLLOQUIAL ALL CAPS" THAT IS FOR ELDERLY HANDICAPPED PEOPLE SO THEY CAN TYPE MUCH EASIER? NOT YELLING, HA HA. ARTHRITIS IN HANDS AND MANY OTHER AILMENTS DUE TO OLD AGE AND A LIFETIME OF HARD WORK. MEDS HELP BUT I REFUSE TO TAKE DOCTORS FENTENYL = DOESN'T KILL PAIN IT KILLS PEOPLE. HELLO, HELLO, HELLO!
What you said applies to way more aspects than just music, too 😉
Japan is the second largest music industry on the planet 😮😊
it is indeed. I question though, is it based on volume of sales, or quality of the music produced. If it's quality, then I reserve the right to challenge Japan's second placing.
Absolutely, but nearly no one knows outside of Japan (and it's a shame of course).
@@realdocloco The momentum that is building behind Japanese rock is so strong. When you see the next wave coming through, it's going to knock some heads off. Exciting times.
Truth
@@lencooke944 Obviously a metric like that is based on volume of sales, as "quality" is something completely subjective.
I'm so glad that mixi enjoyed the song. Domination is a great introductory song for any rock lovers.
Just to remind you, tomorrow the 8th of February is Saiki's birthday. ❤
Mixi is quickly becoming my favorite guest you've had. She's obviously enjoying what you've shown her so far, and you and Mixi are having interesting/entertaining discussions. Also the look on her face after you asked her is she'd heard of Band-Maid was great.
Mixi is a great lady. I've had the pleasure of meeting her before. I've even seen her wearing a dinosaur costume on stage. 😂
Makes her even cooler in my book 😀👍
Mixi as Godzilla on stage with Band-Maid...that would be a show 👍😁
Keep spreading the word! Ohrenje just published an interview with Ogata-san who introduced Band-Maid on a Japanese TV show Music Gold Rush many years ago. He's a metal-head from Miku's hometown Kumamoto and has been repping them for years now. It all helps!
Joel: "Have you heard of {fill in all-female Japanse band here}?"
Mixi: [sheepishly shakes head] "No?"
Joel: "Well, you are in for a treat!"
Haha. Heard Jon House say the other day something about "Band Maid, trying so hard to hide their progginess." 🤣
Great reactions from Mixi, an open ,mind
I love Mixi's genuine reaction, reminding us the day we discovered the japanese rock scene (thx to Band-Maid in my case) 👍
And what a great day that was, Doc.😌
What a great guest Mixi is....glad she enjoyed Bandmaid!!🤘
Wow Mixi!!!! I loved this reaction and I loved her reaction as they played. Both were oustanding!!! I am going to checkout "Stitched Up Heart." I had not heard of them so thanks to you and to Mixi!
MISA MISA MISA!!!!!
Thank you for sharing our favorite band ur friends ❤
I’ve been listening to more Japanese that western lately. Of course, Band-Maid but also Lovebites, Glim Spanky are also favorites. Been dipping my toes into a few more. I’m not a fan of screaming stuff but have been trying out Nemphila and Hanabie. Kyoshi is a female singer bassist that’s amazing! Gacharic Spin is also great. Oh and hooked on Sokoninaru!
Japan is the 2nd largest music market in the world behind the US.
Can't wait for Nemophila reaction.
The perfect concert...
Band Maid.....Babymetal....Wagakki Band
lovely lady, i love her enthusiasm for learing about these new, to her, bands 👍😎😊
Great words from Mixi and I think she's gonna be exploring the Japanese music scene a lot - and hopefully spreading the word of the greatness that is over there. What she said about Band-Maid, Lovebites and Babymetal touring together is something we all think about. I keep hoping that someone with the know-how and connections will get a JapanFest together, where all our favourites appear.
You gotta show her HANABIE. That will trip her out! 😆
Agree. I'm really hoping Mixi is introduced to Hanabie.
Mixi is a new Maidiac Thank you Joel , MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Barefoot Bass Assassin.
Great!. You are doing an excellent job sir.
Okay, I just checked out Stitched Up Heart's channel. I love their music and MIXI is absolutely beautiful. SUBSCRIBED! I can't wait for Mixi to react to Nemophila. They seem more in line with the kind of music Stitched Up Heart plays.
Stitched up heart should go to japan
Joel. surely you told her Band Maid performed at Lollapalooza they year.
Nice. Thanks.
Band Maid Is my favorite group to come along in decades. But check out some Nemophilia. Especially their covers which I enjoy more than many of their originals. I enjoy when she sings rather than she screams. But be that as it may. Also check out from Indonesia. Three little hijab wearing metal funk rockers in the group, Voice of Baceprot. Also known as VOB ! Keep up the good work !
Nemophila Zen and Hanabie Be the gal , next for Mixi
I think you would be hard pressed to find a Japanese band that had members that WEREN'T technically proficient, especially compared to the average wrstern act - the can all Play, capital "P." But only a handful have really been able to capture a sound that appeals to a western audience, among the most successful of them BandMaid, Lovebites, and Nemophila. So yes there is a while world of Japanese rock and metal to be explored that western audiences have not been exposed to, but I'm going to guess that 90% of those bands are going to be too foreign, literally, for the western audience to get into, despite the musical prowess of those bands.
Well Japan is run with the torch. That the US music and recording industry has so seriously dropped in the last three or four decades.
no one's had such a ball on stage as BAND-MAID since Al Capone had his St Valentines Day Masquerade.😏
I suggest you check out Fami from LOVEBITES and Iree from Rolling Quartz for two musicians who love every second they are on the stage.
@@1970Phoenix I did that at Rolling Quartz last week at Islington, London when i was between Jayoung & Iree. Fami's got a beaming smile :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 You saw Rolling Quartz live? I'm so jealous. As well a being good musicians, they are incredibly hot. Arem especially (wink).
@@1970Phoenix Haha. You're right, they're are. I was on the rail & i didn't know where to look at some points but i got to speak to Yeongeun at the M&G. Her super high kawaii voice melts your heart.😂
@@GaryHolloway-810 I Watched a lot of that 02 show from a fancam posted on YT. It looked like a good loud time. You must be doing better these days if you're fighting it out in the front row of a London rock concert. 👍
hey hey ..... you should check out Unlucky Morpheus :)
This sounds like a slightly sped-up version if my ears are not lying to me. Not by much, I would say 5% or 10% or so, but something sounds off. But nobody else said anything about it, so it might just be that my tired brain (I feel very tired for some reason) is just playing tricks on me. I enjoyed the reaction though.
What a joy she is. I’m in the same boat. American Music elites have a lot to answer for
Music elites? Now who's that? Gosh, take up an instrument and go … that's how our beloved ladies of Japan did it. Weren't summoned by some samurai elites by magic sword. Worked hard and clang together. And that's how musical greatness comes to be. In your America, too - ask our Mixi here. No them elites ever had a hand in cultural advancement, don't ever wait for em! If you don't like what you're seeing - are you out there, going at it?
First time she watched Japanese Maid Band live video and the BEST Hard Rock Band in the World...🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Let her watch and react to NEMOPHILA song Dissension, HANABIE song We Love Sweets...
Figured it might be an appropriate time to mention that several members of Nemophila are former Destrose, & Mary's Blood Members. Which careers started with Destrose among pretty much anyone who isn't Band-Maid and Babymetal.
Which includes Destrose Miho and Narumi who are the founders of Lovebites and Disqualia.
Four former Destrose member created Mary's Blood,. Then add Mardelas, Nemophila as mentioned, Aldious, among many others to the Destrose family tree might total 15 bands.
Destrose Saki went onto form Nemophila as well as Hazuki from Disqualia. Fate Gear is legendary Destrose founder Captain Mina's current group. Which is a steam punk metal band & just finished a successful EU & UK tour!
Captain Mina is a pioneer & as badass a b*** as they come. She deserves a lot of credit as not only a great writer and brilliant guitarist. Yet as a starting point for many of my favorite J-metal bands careers. So yea Band-Maid is just the tip of the iceberg here!!
Note: I recommend Super Sonic Samurai. A epic Victorius track they did of the orgional bands single & it rocks. Battle Against Justice, is another amazing track. Winds of The Fall is their latest release but really nothing much to hate about this group! 🤘🎸🔥
why do people always recommend this track they have so much other music
It’s a good intro to them live, and they all get a solo. You get a little of everything, musicianship-wise, and you get to see them goofing off, surrounding Akane, and Miku falling on her butt while Kanami walks away with her arm up in victory.
It would be almost perfect if the mixing were better.
Because it shows them in their element live and shows off their impressive musicianship (with the extended solo section) while it still being a (pretty produced) live video, not a fancam.
Edit: I just thought of an other thing and I am sure that doesn't apply to a lot of fans (there are a lot of people that know them way longer), but it does for me and there have been plenty of others discovering Japanese rock and metal during the pandemic. This is one of the first tracks I saw by them and probably the track that made me understand how good they are at their instruments, together with Onset but that one doesn't have Saiki.
Place yourself in the seat of the newcomer instead of the seat of the die-hard fan - it's the perfect introduction to them.
I hope you showed her babymetal!!
I have mixed feelings about Babymetal. For me it is mostly the very young cute girls and the shock factor of seeing them in a hard metal context, doing cute stuff. Babymetal really has some totally outstanding tracks from 2010 to 2018 until Yui left and they grew up and was no longer super cute Japanese girls. Now they are grown up women and I have only seen three songs that have the vibes of old times: BxMxC, Papaya and Metali. Also, Su's voice has changed. I liked the younger voice, it was super impressive. I actually saw them live a year ago and I was not impressed.
I used to love Baby Metal, and I'll be forever thankful to them for leading me down the Japanese metal rabbit hole that allowed me to discover bands like LOVEBITES, Nemophila, Band Maid, Hanabie etc. But I think I've outgrown them. They are very entertaining and very popular, but the premise of their act is a single gimmick (cute little teens dancing / pop singing to metal music). I think the elite musicianship of some of the other Japanese all-female bands has spolied me.
But I still will listen to "Gimme Chocolate" from time to time.
@@1970Phoenix I still love Babymetal, my favorite tracks are Yava, Sis Anger and Headbanger. But I love even more tracks. Why not GJ? Or Megitsune MV? And even Metali. But the big days were 2010 to 2018. And those days can never come back, it is impossible. Small girls grow up. They are now trying to come back with another act. As far as I can see it is not really working all that well. Some likes it. But some will always like anything.
In Japan it all starts in the schools with teaching self discipline to be the best you can be, and not victimhood like in America. The best get on stage and become great through self discipline, dedication and hard work, victimhood mentality stifles ones ability to even think about being great.
Mixi, This song was song #22 of 23 for this LIVE show that was over 2 hours straight entertainment....talk about energy. Band-Maid Brings It!
I can't believe that there's actually other countries. I thought the United States was the only country to exist.
Japan just does it better…
Poor thing… so many tattoos…
