    This song is from Conqueror which was a 2019 release. This was allegedly their answer to "critics" who said they were not heavy when their previous album World Domination came out. My opinion is a lot of people mislabeled them as metal at first instead of hard rock.

    Misa's bass tone almost defies description. She has a fantastic ear for getting the exact sound she wants for each song. But of course so do the other girls. Akane's drum sound is on point every time. Kanami's guitar tone fits the song perfectly. Even Saiki's vocals blend with the band's sound perfectly. This is quite honestly one of the major things that keep me coming back to them.

      @@nussekuddenxxx6564 Oh so you google translated it. T-shinji is Japanese and does interview translations on the BM subreddit. So his translations are better than google’s. According to him, Kanami sends weekly a demo or a riff, anything she comes up with to ‘someone’ in the company, but not really to the company itself. Not sure what that means but I think we can assume that it’s not exactly their label forcing them to write as much songs as possible, and either ways Kanami writes a ton on a daily basis

    OK.... Now that you have heard a "Bucket Load" of tracks from Band Maid, you know that they are a rock band who pushes the boundaries of the "Rock sphere"...... in that they have no limit or boundary in the music that they produce.
    When you have MISA in your band, what do you do?? You let her be MISA. The same with Akane, Saiki, Miku and (for Me) Kanami. It is often overlooked (in particular the newer fans) that Kanami IS the main songwriter of the band. She writes the "core" song and the others add to it.... after. However with MISA, Kanami goes...."here's what I'm thinking of a bass line..... knock your socks off".
    Finally...... I have subbed.

    Song: BAND-MAID
    Lyrics: MIKU KOBATO
    Composition: BAND-MAID
    Taking my time
    Float, disappear, fall
    It is a negative reincarnation
    Go around by leaving behind
    Excessive psychology
    If you don't like it
    What is it for?
    The secret to see through
    Not more
    Stupid yeah
    Open your eyes
    Even if you lose your breath
    The world doesn't change
    I know .....
    That won't end
    Even if it's a meaningless mistake
    Distort the gears
    You know .....
    The second hand does not stop
    Get down
    That's enough
    I can't solve it, I can't wake up
    Separation and breeding life
    Rolling around
    Far away
    Go far away
    I should zip my lips
    Vomiting melancholy
    I'll leave it up to you
    I felt like I heard a voice
    Close your eyes
    Even if the dream is over
    No one comes to help
    I know .....
    I can't sleep with this
    Even in the dawn of justice
    Nothing is born by imitation
    You know .....
    Break the second hand
    Get down
    Reincarnation
    Living and Dying
    Why?
    What do you live for?
    例え声荒げても
    世界は何にも救えない
    Honesty does not pay
    That makes no sense
    Open your eyes
    例え息途絶えても
    世界は何にもかわらない
    I know.....
    それじゃ 終われないよ
    解き放って
    Get down
    It's sink or swim
    Shut up!

    You brought up a good point about BM's melodies. While I liked a lot of the instrumentation in hard rock and metal songs...so many of the vocals for recent bands sounded so angry and lost all catchiness for me. The thing I liked about 80s hair bands is they had great melodies so Band Maid fits that wheelhouse of hard rock sound with catchiness.
    I just realized you have not responded to Different. It came out on Dec 1st and already has 1.3m views. It is an uptempo song with lots of changes and features a crazy sounding lead riff that turns out to be a real earworm. It definitely was a bit of a different sound for BM when it came out. Might be one to have on your radar

    Misa and Kaname get all the props for most songs as their contributions are the most obvious. But for someone who doesn't quite get what each instrument does, can you explain Miku's contribution in rhythm guitar? How does it enhance the song and does she do a great job? Lots happening so I can't easily pick out what sound she is throwing at us.

    • @akaalexanderking
      @akaalexanderking  Před 3 lety +1

      Her work would be more obvious on other songs, here she's adding some very interesting lines as well though. Like that descending slide right after the first chorus ;)

      A good song to listen to if you want to hear Miku's guitar is "Awkward." You can hear her playing the chords while Kanami lays the melody under. Another one is "Matchless Gum." Before Kanami's solo, the only 3 instruments you hear are Akane, MISA, and Miku.
      I would say that Miku's rhythm guitar helps build the layers of the songs. It also helps in driving the hype and energy, which allows Kanami to transition into her solos.

    Good video as always, perhaps you will find interesting this interview that a magazine did to Kanami, she talks about how they write their songs is from earlier this year.
    The original is in japanese, this is a translation from the superfan t-shinji from reddit www.reddit.com/r/BandMaid/comments/m2rpth/translation_interview_with_kanami_on_the_march/
    I wanna suggest another song from them a slower one, as you said in the video when the play a bit slower they shine more. Don't get me wrong, i love when they play fast too.

      @@akaalexanderking Ho appena terminato di leggere i commenti dove è stato menzionato Tshinji.
      Anche a me è capitato di leggere qualche sua traduzione di interviste ed approfondimenti, infatti posso darti una chicca sullo stile di Saiki.
      A fine video hai notato una influenza hip hop/rap ma non è così, lei stava iniziando una carriera solista prima di essere scrutinata da Miku ed ha influenze jpop e musica tradizionale giapponese(stile Idol)..
      In alcune canzoni hard rock/ trash metal delle Band Maid sembra effettivamente rappare, questo è dovuto alla genialità dei testi scritti da Miku, po'!!
      I giapponesi adorano il karaoke e anche per loro è difficile cantare le loro canzoni, questo perché la pronuncia giapponese va in contrasto con la musica rock in generale..quindi Miku scrive utilizzando 2 tecniche in modo da snellire e abbreviare determinate frasi, mantenendo musicalità e il tempo.
      Saiki fa un lavoro assurdo aiutata anche dal coro di Miku in back, ma Saiki è l'ultima voce che decide il sound di ogni canzone, è lei la produttrice...non chiede mai a Kanami di comporre qualcosa che si adatta alla sua voce e stile, ma si chiude ore ed ore in sala prove finché il brano non è perfetto!
      In alcune canzoni ti chiedi quando e dove prende respiro, sempre se respira 😅, e pensare che ogni live dura più di 2 ore a questo ritmo e con questo livello è impressionante!!
      In realtà a metà concerto c'è sempre omajinai time, dove Miku fa un piccolo spettacolo tipico dei Maid cafè di Tokio e dopo canta una canzone da solista.
      Pausa più che meritata per Saiki..

    No. The LIVE version is not better than this. The same is true of 'Blooming'. Not that there's anything wrong with the LIVE, but for 'Rinne' it was an abbreviated LIVE to Video for a Television Show. For 'Blooming' the studio version is just superior to the LIVE version. These are probably the only two songs where that's true.
