They a few "live only" pieces, BUT Band-Maid always write their music with the "live element " in mind...
You can really tell. Different genre, but kind of makes me think of Bruce Springsteen under that point of view
'Onset' together with the somewhat newer instrumental 'Don't be long' and the acoustics of 'Puzzle' and 'Anemone' are the perfect songs for me to just escape from everything. So well composed and performed that when I put on headphones and close my eyes, I can really block out everything around me for a few minutes. I don't know many songs that allow me to do that.
Also from me 'thank you' for another video to Band-Maid and the support for the ladies that comes with it!
【 'Our rock never dies, ever. Forever!' - Band-Maid 】
That's beautiful, the true power of music 👍🏻
I love the idea of making #Band-MaidMondays a thing in the fandom and swamping social media with it.
That's the idea. Would be curious to see if we can push to make it happen 👍🏻
Count me in!
🤘🏻
Take 5 free spirits. Add some spice & heat. Top up with sweet bubbly, add ice & mix well together. You now have the perfect BAND-MAID rock music cocktail :)
I'll go grab a glass :)
Make mine a double!
@@me262talon2 BAND-MAIKO make a very agreeable double ;)

Thanks again for your reactions to BAND-MAID. Onset and the other instrumentals are bonkers. So much detail goes into every song they do.
Absolutely, that's why they get better with every listen!
Bandmaid mondays sounds like a great idea!
Looking forward to it myself!
And Tuesdays? ;)
That's a dangerous game Paul 😂
Right - they're always a mood lifter and Monday's are a great day for that!
That was actually the idea, gotta start the week strong!
MAID MONDAYS!!!! LOVE IT!
Let's make it happen!
_Band Maid_ Live is relentless quality! These girls sure can put the stank on their instruments.
Definitely agree 🤘🏻
I love Kanami channeling he guitar hero Carlos Santana at 2:57 and MISA's flawless pick-to-slap transition in her solo.
Yes! That pick to slap transition was unbelievable, so smooth
This has become one my favorite rock instrumental of all time. It's a great jam session. Will be a classic in years to come.
It's a fantastic instrumental, so intense
#MaidMondays: should this become a thing? :)
Damn right it should. I mean "Yes please" :)
Sharks have a whole week on Discovery Channel, BAND-MAID should have a whole month.
Yes!!! Maid Mondays should be a thing...as well as Maid Tuesday and Maid Wednesday and Maid Thursday and Maid Friday and Maid Saturday. Sunday is a day of rest...um...OK, a half day of rest!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘
Ahahaha, never forget your "Manners" Gary ;)
Sounds like a plan ahahah
"It's their musical skills" - nailed it.
And musical skills will always be more important than technique 🤘🏻
@@akaalexanderking Right. I'd rather listen to David gilmour than some other guitar player who have 50 times the technique, if by technique you mean players that can put a lot of notes into a small space.
Exactly. David Gilmour is the embodiment of that concept when it comes to lead guitarists
One of the finest rock instrumentals ever created - Kamami became a legend writing this song!
My favorite will probably always be Orion by Metallica. But this is fantastic nonetheless!
writing this song just to make some time for their vocalist to pee =))
Finally....its a deep Rabbit Hole 👍👍 Great Reaction as always 🔥🤙👍
Cheers my friend 🤘🏻
@@akaalexanderking 🤙💖
Well :) This song was my first impact from BAND MAID...The eart shaking until today if I heard this song...Good luck for the another song's from this band ;)
Looking forward to that!
Puzzle!!! ;)
Without holding back :) instrumental as well :)
Thanks for the recommendations!
That Van Halen divebomb gets me every time, and Akane's drum fills give me life. The way they arrange the songs to keep them fresh is really inspiring, and I hope to apply that to my own music.
MISA!!!! MISA!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃 This is still one of my Top 5 B-M favorites
I can understand why!
"ppppfffffffff.... ooooohhh yes" is the correct response to a Band-Maid video.
Agreed 😁
On-Set is music for the soul!
Fantastic song!
Great reaction! For the next BAND-MAID reaction, it would be amazing if you could do "without holding back" but the MV is only on Bilibili. Otherwise, "Wonderland" live from their official CZcams channel would be perfect
Thanks for the suggestions! What's Bilibili?
Oh yes...."without holding back" should be the next instrumental...it's brutal. Bilibili is a Chinese video site
Thanks Robert!
I think you need to be introduced to HAL-CA from Asterism. "Light in the Darkness" live would be a good one to start with.
Thanks for the suggestion Bill, noted ;)
What is amazing is that all Bandmaid instrumental are designed as training for the member specially Miku who has least experience playing. "Don't be long" was practice song for "Different".
That is pretty amazing, yeah! Always pushing their skills is the best way to stay on top of their game
Just Band-Maid doing Band-Maid things!
Aka being on top of their game!
@@akaalexanderking The thing is, what is the top for Band Maid? They raise their own bar and keep exceeding it! These ladies are just so skilled and talented! The hard work and dedication is apparent in every song! Really hope we get to see them, and all other bands, able to perform live in 2021!
I really hope so too, live music is such a big part of my life. Can't wait to be out there again
I heard this one on the 1st day i discovered Band Maid and i was stunned speechless by how good this sounds.
Being more of a metal guy myself i wasnt used to hearing bass solos, and when MISA solo came on i was blown away. (just one of the many times i was blown away in my first day discovering this band)!
I knew right away that there is nothing this band cant play if they want to.
Im glad you are reacting to my other favorite japanese band Lovebites, they are very different, its a straight up metal band. Both bands are excellent in their own genre.
Stay safe!
Yes! The video will be out in half an hour, clearly different genres but the musicianship if fantastic in both 🤘🏻
There's just one thing better than Band-Maid Mondays. Band-Maid all week long! That way the energy and smiles won't wear off. Thanks, G-Gent, for covering this transformational group.
Thank you Tom for the support!
Band Maid is incredible. Love Kanami, just a great guitarist and composer. Kanami writes her tapping runs as if their the chorus of the song. Nemophila is the other Japanese band I love.
Yes, the melody in that tapping solo was gorgeous!
You like their instrumentals? ;-)
You should get the special addition CD/DVD package of Unseen World. There are four istrumentals. All four are great, but my favorites are "After Life" and "without holding back". \m/
Absolutely love instrumentals, thanks for the tip Nate :)
As instrumentals, my favorites are "without holding back" and "Giovanni" ;)
Without Holding Back is my fav along with Black Hole. Such amazing soundtracks
Thanks, writing them down ;)
These girls bring it.
Every time 🤘🏻
Happy Time!!!
🤘🏻
I'm a Japanese fan of BAND-MAID.
I look forward to your reaction every time.
I'm impressed with your honest reaction and great sense of listening to music.
I am looking forward to it.
Smile
Thank you so much, that means a lot! :)
They will be doing a live stream concert soon. They are very fun and great live
They definitely are ;)
What makes Band Maid different ...
1) No ego within the band , just 'respect' for the spotlight.
2) You will hear .. little tiny bits of , Ted Nugent, ACDC , Living Colour, Rush, ..but these Ladies give you their 'own' vibe withese backbones . There is lot's of tempo change and mood shift that will catch you off guard ,
3) Cuteness factor: MIku will melt your heart ..with a little smile...............
4) one of the most loyal fanbases around 😉
If you like this, you will LOVE Freedom, Domination, Choose Me and Don't You Dare, LIVE !
The first two are fantastic, the others I still have to listen to. Looking forward to that!
I wish EDDIE VAN HALEN could see his 5150 AMP standing tall on stage as these lovely maids’ shred!!!! Hope to see them live in 2021 rocking CALIFORNIA!!!!!
A certain MR EDDIE VAN HALEN would be impressed with KANAMI'S
tapping technique.
Oh, by the way- JIMMY PAGE OF (LED ZEPPELIN) loves BAND-MAID, enough
said....
Absolutely, any guitar player would have a very hard time not liking these ladies 🤘🏻
There's gonna be an online okyuji (concert as they call them. Translation means "service") on the 11th of this month! That's just a couple of days away. The ticket is about $40 but it deserves every penny and I know it by experience
That's gonna be interesting. It's such a challenge to make something that stands out with online shows
Great reaction....please react...FREDOM live 2020.....DON'T YOU TELL ME live 2018 incredible battle MISA/KANAMI
Thanks for the suggestions!
Great Reaction! Love Band Maid and the other groups from Japan but they are the ones that got me started and are my favorite. They got me studying Japanese and I have all their music now. Thanks to Yoyoka, Audrey & Kate who, if not for them, I never would have clicked on a link that said Band Maid--almost a year ago. Also thanks to the rock groups that went to Japan back in the 70s that were sold out to these wonderful fans. Deep Purple comes to mind, whio I saw live in the early 70s in Chicago. Great times for music.
Thanks! Absolutely, Deep Purple, KISS, even Green Day and Oasis in more recent times. Japanese crowds are always phenomenal
Nice reaction Gent!
Good Bands make good music and Band-Maid makes Band-Maid-Things. :-)
Thanks man!
Good one!
Thanks Paul!
LOVEBITES and BAND-MAID are two different beasts, but make no mistake, both entities are beasts.
Definitely different, but phenomenal musicians in both from what I've seen 👍🏻
@@akaalexanderking, absolutely. if you want a recommendation, I recommend a band I'm just now getting into, Unlucky Morpheus. They're Japanese and highly talented. Here's a link to their violinist covering "Eruption" by Van Halen and doing a damn good job.
Thanks, sounds very interesting 😉
the video starts and you say, "so intense!" my thought was, "Buckle up! it only gets better!" I can listen to that song on repeat. its a great song.
glad to see your starting to become a "Maidiac" and welcome PO!!!
It really does! Thanks for the welcome 😁
@@akaalexanderking ive subbed. i like watching your reacts. i think Maid Monday needs to be a thing.
Thanks for the support man, appreciate it 🤘🏻#MaidMondays
Its not amazing, its BAND-MAID PO !
Valid point 😁
You have bassists and then you have MISA. Bass solos have not been a thing in the past, that time is over, today bass is more and more a lead instrument. There are many reasons, but mostly because todays bass players are amazing instrumentalists :-)
First there was Johann Sebastian Bach then came Ludwig van Beethoven and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and now we have Kanami Tono, joining with the world’s best composers.
Love me some Classical music as well 😁
Misa, the barefoot assassin on bass..
Outstanding bass player, always doing something original
Band Maid always writes their instrumental section first and then adds the lyrics to compliment it. So you bet they take their instrumentals seriously and they are often proper standalone songs on their own. Infact they regularly release instrumental ver.of many of their songs alongside their new albums. Btw Kanami (L guitar) is their songwriter & arranger while Miku (rhythm guitar/backing vocals) is the lyricist.
That's fantastic, I love when bands to that. A bit like Mastodon or The Ocean 🤘🏻
good reaction!👗🎸🎀🤘
Thanks!
LOVEBITES - Miyako And Midori Guitar Solo | Zepp DiverCity Tokyo
Reaction to Lovebites coming today, stay tuned ;)
@@akaalexanderking Thanks such a sweet little girl band they are, also ways wear white with high heels imagine some girls doing a full concert in heels poor feet. Two of the most exciting guitarists in the world today they are the Queens of shred Miyako and Midori are beyond sensational.
Jesus, playing a full show in high heels must be tough 😬
"Blooming" is a masterpiece...........check it out !!!!!!
Thanks for the recommendation!
I'm happy that you loved this piece. As much as I love Saiki's vocal and her emotional rendering, and rapping, etc...I have thing for great instrumentals. Band-maid is special in a way that no matter how many different bands you listen to, you always end up coming back.
Having said that, I have an occasional craving for something hardcore. Maximum the hormone and crystal lake are actually my kind of metal. (Reminds me of bad brains and rage against the machine). They are not metal all way. Very musically satisfying in their own way.
That makes two of us, I'll always gravitate towards a great instrumental track. Looking forward to digging a bit deeper into Maximum the Hormone 👍🏻
Other instrumentals are Don't be long & without holding back. There are other instrumentals that are taken from their studio songs and it's in their limited edition blu ray.
Thanks for letting me know 👍🏻
That Bass, try watch DICE, she's everywhere in that,
Thanks, noted it ;)
Kanami the Tsunami of sound
That's a fitting nickname 🤘🏻
Good assessment of the song. Made good points on the guitar work. Kanami is a great composer. You missed highlighting Akane’s drumming here. The bridge in particular. It’s a difficult section to play. Disjointed with no particular regular rhythm/beat. Have to be exact with different fills. Akane really plays this well. Considering this is all played with strobes,lasers etc.,it’s an amazing piece of musicianship by all. Misa’s bass is always great and there’s really solos going on throughout the piece. One of my favourites.
Yeah, they are all on top of their game. Thanks Jim 👍🏻
You are a very perceptive reactor. Subscribed.
Band-Maid are great in the studio, but many times better in live concert. And as you thought might be the case, yes they do allow for improvisation, but I think most often they practice the extended live versions in advance. They love to work with the energy exchange with live audiences and so their live performances are really LIVE. I know of exactly no one who has ever been disappointed in a Band-Maid concert.
The official videos from February 14, 2020 live are excellent quality and it was a superb performance that well represents their live music. And the extended "Freedom" from that one with the drum solo in the middle is often recommended.
It will be interesting to see what they do live this year when concerts are more do-able. Some of their new songs bring the bass and drums even more forward, and the skills of rhythm guitarist Miku are developing well and she is brought forward more often. She has less than 8 years on the guitar, and has come a long way in that time. Lead guitarist-composer Kanami on our right is her teacher and coach bringing her from zero to pro, and Miku has worked hard to get to this level. Miku is the group founder and chief lyricist and many other things in the band.
Oh, and in their videos you might see that their amplifiers are all different, all specialized for the purpose, not arbitrarily one brand and sponsor. Much thought has gone into those choices for being able to get the exact tones they want, and they constantly try new approaches, never settling for sameness.
Good to know she has a great teacher when it comes to guitar playing. Playing with other people is always the fastest way to improve on an instrument. Thanks for the support!
@GuitarGent Now you truly understand what I meant when I said in the Domination comments that this was my first Band-Maid song, and that I then listened to it four times in a row because I kept hearing new things each time.
Absolutely, I've listened to this 3-4 times already myself and it gets better with each one
I just made the like count from 999 to 1K :-)
YAY, thanks for that! 😁
Another one taken by the musical charms of the maids
........................................ Akane!!
Can't argue with that!
#MaidMondays : i'll hit that sub right after write this comment 😁😁😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great reaction as always, thank you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for the support Jim! 🤘🏻
So...Hooked yet?
Pretty damn much man. Pretty damn much 😂
Please react to scardust- over & arch echo- spark
Thanks for the suggestion Yotam :)
@@akaalexanderking yup hope you get to it soon
You love instrumental? You have to check out Asterism, start with the MV Rising Moon
Thanks for the recommendation David 👍🏻
ナイスリアクション❗️
NICE reaction video👍
Please watch the live video below❗️
I'm sure you'll enjoy it✌️
BAND-MAID / FREEDOM (Official Live Video)
Thanks for the suggestion!
Bro check out and react also to TRiDENT - Junna, trio Japanese girls rock band MV No Regret, MV Voltage...watch the drummer Junna....
Thanks for the suggestions man 👍🏻
Please please please react to Freedom Live by Band Maid ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That's coming on Monday, stay tuned 😉
@@akaalexanderking no way! Awesome!!
Your reaction video posting coincided with Saiki's birthday (8 Feb)
Had no idea, nice coincidence!
MISA MISA MISA! not to be a downer but not sure everything you thought was the Rhythm Guitarist was, as there is a third Guitar track layered into the mix while Mincho does the Tapping
Yeah, I noticed that at a second listen. But still impressive 👍🏻
This is the Band-Maid I fell in love with. I miss them but the wall of sound they produce nowadays is not for me.
I'm happy with both 😁
Ah...ma quindi sei italiano?
E porti reaction della miglior Band(non so bene in quale categoria inserirla, diciamo hard rock) del pianeta, anche del passato e nel futuro?
Intanto mi iscrivo, dopo se hai bisogno di notizie su queste 5 fantastiche musiciste e sulla loro musica sono a disposizione..
E fregatene delle reazioni, vai su Spotify cerca Band Maid e fai riproduzione casuale...hanno una discografia di più di 100 brani e non troverai un solo brano non all'altezza di ciò che hai già ascoltato!!
Anche nei primi 2 ep, dove arrangiavano insieme a chi scriveva ma non c'era Kanami alla composizione come adesso..a quel tempo stavano ancora cercando la loro strada.
O quantomeno ignora tutti i brani presenti sul loro CZcams e ascolta il resto della discografia alla quale non reagirai mai; se ascolti ogni loro singola canzone più volte, ad ogni ascolto, noterai qualcosa di nuovo e bellissimo che ti farà pensare "questa è la mia canzone preferita di loro" dopo ascolterai la prossima canzone e il ciclo si ripeterà 😄
È difficile scegliere la canzone preferita, sono tutte belle...non c'è un MV di Unfair Game, Cross, You, No God che ti consiglio, come prossime reaction magari Rinne(reincarnation), Blooming o Dice
Fantastico, grazie per le dritte Giuseppe 🤘🏻
I am just not convinced. I can't find any videos of the guitarist actually playing the guitar and it looks like she's playing what I'm hearing. This is a great example of that. Every quarter of a second is a different camera angle, bad lighting, and it's just... It looks like she's tapping the correct way, but the really technical stuff is not being shown.
A great example of what I'm talking about is a youtube video with Herman Li. Herman is like "let's get this on!" and they are waiting for somebody to line everything up. Once it starts up, it's like watching an air guitarist. I've been playing for 40 years, and shit just doesn't line up. fingers aren't doing what my ear is hearing.
I think they're fake as fuck!
I didn't notice anything like that Eric to be honest, so far they look 100% legit to me. Hopefully that's just not the case :)
@@akaalexanderking I think this is a case for Stevie T.
Did you find evidence that proves Band-Maid is "fake as fuck"? Or did you find evidence to the contrary? I am genuinely curious.
