Do you have a secret talent?
Put people together to help each other.
Yes. Shhh, it’s a secret 😎
I can read upside-down and back-to-front simultaneously.
@@ChrisPage68 only upside-down, back-to-front never worked (lol)
I can eat only one potato chip and then stop.
Just like Chuck Norris.
Important thing: this is Asaya's (correction! Ayasa!) (violin) band! That's the band she wanted to form and she chosed the members carefully! Singer Akane is an ex-Predia and was once (2014-2015) part of a band with ... Akane and Kanami from Band-Maid (Mochi To Cheese)! Guitarist Yuki is a virtuoso knowned for her band D_Drive. Misaki is a fantastic studio drummer and also part of Lonesome_Blue. And, last but not least, stunning lefty bass player is named Wakazaemon (you can say "Waka") and she's so good she's part of legendary guitar-hero Marty Friedman live band.
Ayasa.
@@ChrisPage68 oops, my bad, thx
Waka just supported Koiai for their live from Osaka concert DVD. I hope she becomes a permanent member and they move in a more heavy prog direction.
Saw their first ever live show last year and will see them live again soon. Easily the best of the newer bands in Japan. Lovebites and Band-Maid connections with EoE: They're with the Victor label, as is LB. Arranger/keyboardist Mao Yamamoto, who's often worked with LB, and MV director Naoki Takeyama, who directs LBs' vdos, have been involved. Violinist Ayasa and Asami of LB are buddies and have often worked together, including a concert I saw of them backing a J-Pop singer. Guitarist Yuki's sister is married to a Japanese recording engineer based in New York and he did the sound engineering for B-M Miku and Saiki's vocals in "The Dragon Cries", recorded in NY. Vocalist Akane was in the group Predia, who were with the same management agency as Band-Maid, and B-M did some shows with them over the years; also Akane was in the Mochi to Cheese side project with B-M's Akane and Kanami. B-M's Akane went to Predia's final show. Drummer Mizuki was hanging out with LB's Haruna at a huge drummers' New Year Party in Tokyo few months ago-among the other female drummers there were Mari of Mary's Blood, Junna now of Hagane, and Yuri of Gacharic Spin. The girls were having a blast at their own table.
Troll account. Copy and paste stories from Japan net.
@@PANIC_aka_PinD Lol. You say this and you call me a troll? Pathetic Panic, and wrong too. I live in Japan, work in the music industry here, have an MA in Japanese literature, and unlike you actually know what I'm talking about concerning Japanese music. You get Hanabie's name wrong, wrongly claim Hanabie were the biggest selling indie band in Japan, give the wrong maker for Asterism Miyu's bass, and ineptly use a fallen petal metaphor for Nemophila losing a member apparently not knowing a fallen petal symbolizes death in Japanese culture. If I bothered to read more of your comments I could probably give more examples. I guess that, and this, is the best you can do.

I LOVE them. Each bring so much talent it explodes in to something GREAT ! ! !
the fits are fittin🎻well said!😸
East of Eden and Lonesome_Blue are my favorite japanese bands from the last years (joining my other favorites like Unlucky Morpheus and Lovebites)
I would love to see more reactions to these bands :D
Also, can someone tell me what is the Unlucky Morpheus' song she reacted on Patreon? I can't afford it now, but I NEED to see a reaction to Cadaver/Revadac.
Edit: I have some Unlucky Morpheus performances on my channel for anyone who wants to see it, I uploaded them so reactors could have more options to choose from.
More east of eden reaction... Evolve (extended version)
It’s no secret, I, suffice to say, do all. And recommend: Polkadot Stingray, Co Shu Nie, Miyuna, to start! Breathing since “53”.
Yuki is phenomenal guitarist, she's been part of an instrumental band metal, jazz, progressive fusion band D-Drive for 15 years. D_Drive is a definite must listen, Yuki and Serji play incredible harmonies and mesh real well together. Here's a link to one their most popular songs, especially amongst musicians, a beautiful instrumental called "Unkind Rain" czcams.com/video/112wa6E77H4/video.htmlsi=0KKiTVdWHG6TCFza This is a 'Yuki Cam' version from a live show where camera stays on her, but D-Drive also has and official studio MV where you can see the full band. Fun fact about Yuki, she actually started playing guitar in her late teens. She had always wanted to be a dancer like her sister who's a professional dancer, but they told her she was too fat (at around 100 lbs!) and got real depressed until her father, who's also a great guitarist along with her brother, encouraged her to pick up guitar as a way to occupy time. Now she's respected virtuoso guitarist and instructor and is a popular face in Japanese advertising, do adverts for companies like Toyota, Sony and Japan's biggest Saki distributor. Yuki, Saki and Miyako are my Holy Trinity of guitarist.
Maybe if you have the chance to hear East Of Eden / Evolve. This band leader is Ayasa. She was looking for band member, and it's here.
The bass really isn't flipped, it's just a left-handed bass. If it was flipped, the strings would go thin to thick from top to bottom. They don't, they still go from thick to thin top to bottom. Wakazaemon is an incredible bass guitarist, though. She's played with Marty Friedman on a solo tour and on his recent album, and she played live for KOIAI when they recorded their debut Blu-ray release. If she joined KOIAI, the amount of skill in that band would be off the charts!
Well she could just restring it the way Jimi Hendrix would do. But if it was flipped the input and volume controls would be on top.
Love this band over all, but the thing that always makes me smile is that the bassist always dresses like she's in an entirely different band. It's a small thing but it amuses me.
Disculpe señorita pero no comparto su opinion acerca de Unluky Morpheos, no se que temas escuchaste de la banda pero el violin si se escucha y se distingue con claridad, la diferencia con esta banda es que el violin asume el rol de otra guitarra.
The vocalist Akane Minato was a member of the idol group "predia", and before more she was the vocalist for the acoustic rock band "Mochi to Cheese". The drummer Akane and the guitarist Kanami from BAND-MAID were member of Mochi to Cheese too.
To think they just released their first song less than a year ago and yet they sound like they been playing together since forever. Every track they released hass been fantastic so far, and we are not even a year in, gets me so excited for their future. I really love Akane's vocals, when the cutsey high pitch vocals are so popular atm in the j-music industry, the maturity and depth of her voice is such a breath of fresh air. Would totally recommend checking any other of their released videos. Evolve, This moment or Hanabi.
For sure check out "Evolve" from them. Debut single and my personal favourite
Interesting thoughtful comments to great band. Well known violinist Ayasa more featured other songs. As you said violinist Jill of Unlucky Morpheus is often lost in the mix (except when featured as in Angreifer). Jill is showcased in UM's great subgroup "Quadratum" which also includes the drummer, lead guitar and bass. Jill and Ayasa are the queens of rock/metal violin.
I’ve never not heard Jill in the mix when she’s actually playing. I’ve seen people say they can’t hear her in parts of Black Pentagram during reactions, but they usually say that in verses. If you look at the video though, she’s not playing during the verses. I think the difference is that with East of Eden the violence is pretty much always going, while in Unlucky Morpheus there are breaks in the violence parts which can come across as not hearing it because of how chaotic the music is
Please react
Evolve(extended version)
East Of Eden聴いてくれてありがとうございます☺️
Great Choice NP! Don't forget to notice Ayasa uses a 5-string. They are a 'relatively' brand new and I can't wait to see how they grow. Edit: just got to the part where you mentioned the left-handed bass. Wakazaemon is a Beast on that bass. Yuki on guitar is part of a group called D-Drive -- which is also worth checking out.
It's a five-string electric violin. Thank you for getting to East of Eden. A true supergroup. All of them have done great stuff before. Lots of people go nuts over the technical skills of Japanese musicians, with good reason, but what really sets them apart is their willingness to experiment with sounds, arrangements, with everything. Love this band.
The bassist Wakaza-emon is youngest member of East of Eden. She was also a member of Marty Freedman's band for U.S. and Germany live tour. czcams.com/video/Za4o4jOVRfA/video.htmlsi=aeywiRbmXVLrMHj9
My first exposure to this group is right now, with your reaction. I paused at the 2-minute mark to write this... My very first impression after about 15 seconds was.... frenetic. Initially, not in a good way. BUT... once my ear 'adjusted,' I went back and re-started. In a way they remind me of Dirty Loops. Not in music 'style,' but in that they are exceptional musicians with REALLY intricate rhythms and syncopation. Their technical skills are impressive. Wow. Okay, now I'll keep listening to the end. That violin soaring up top is SO great! Continuing... Okay, I am doubling down on my Dirty Loops vibe. So intense, so frenetic (good frenetic), so intricate. I HOPE this is not a 'one-off.' I HOPE their other stuff is this good! Headed to their channel now. GREAT reaction, young lady!
NP. love your reactions and especially your knowledge of music 🤟🤟♥️♥️. Thank you. p.s. LOVEBITES DALLAS TX September 8. Then LA AND SAN FRANCISCO hope to see you 🤟🔥🤟🔥🐺🦧🍌🙏
I recommended this band to you weeks ago! Try “Evolve” next - it was their first released track and many voted it track of the year.
is a different vibe and worth to listen.
Ayasa(violin) is a gratitude of a music college that provides the best violin education in Japan.
she was finally able to gather the members to form her ideal rock band centered around violin😊👍
Thanks for that information) I am so impressed by the quality of their playing I was trying to figure out who it was that stood out because that might be the person who put the band together. Yet they're ALL so good! Will definitely be looking for more from these young women 🎶🫰°
Just Lovin Yuki( guitarist ). She must be most underrated guitarist in whole world. And Waka( bass) is unbelievable talent. She is playin’ in Marty Friedman’s band.
I just saw them live in Okinawa. Incredible. Marty Friedman came out and played with them also. It was so good i may have shed a happy tear or 2!!!! The talent in Japan is endless.
Hey Derek ... I should keep closer track of you :p . I did not realize you got to see EoE on your last trip :) .
great reviews...cool band...
Ayasa, the band founder, is the violinist. All the members are well known in the Japanese music scene.
Hello Princess NittPicc! I hope you are having a wonderful day! This band is fairly new, but they have a few other videos. Please take care and have an amazing week.
Love this band and your reaction. Thank you for sharing.
I love it when classical instruments are used in rock music. I also love it when rock music is used in classical music like Vanessa Mae's version of Vivaldi's Four Seasons/Summer/Presto. czcams.com/video/mdFrn89x74k/video.html
Thanks for showing me east of Eden I have heard of them but never listened to them another band k have been sleeping on now to go listen to there albums 🤘🏻
Another one of those fantastic Japanese super bands. Sometimes it is difficult not to feel overwhelmed by the large number of excellent groups composed by great virtuosos of their instruments. It seems like they come out of the trees there. Oh, and of course you can hear the violin. Ayasa, a wonderful violinist, she created the band and she is the producer. Thanks NittPicc!
There's definitely something in the water at least! What's always struck me these last few years as I've started down the J-rock and J-metal rabbit hole is how far back it goes. It feels a bit insane that Japan was "hiding" all these fantastic singers, instrumentalists and their bands from us for decades. I say that having known about some, like some of the "Visual K" bands, but still...so happy to be discovering all of them now, though!
Wouldn't be my first choice as first listen.
I like "In this moment" and especially "Evolve" (long version) best.
If "Evolve could be an emote, it would be blobdance. Infectious as eff. and the best violin-riff.
Truly a supergroup!
The lead guitarist, Yuki, is also a member of the band D Drive, which was also suggested to you ;) . For UM you can visit Jills channel where it is all her.
East of Eden is smaller, sub-wise, than UM ... I think it is because UM is harder and edgier. It will be interesting to see how EoE grows. D Drive plays a little more rock sounding material. There is no doubt these girls are all accomplished musicians and have a good base of followers.
Don't forget /unlucky Morpheus has been around a lot longer. East of Eden just formed this year.
@@1972cd Very true. That is why I said it will be interesting to see them develop.
I'd suggest checking out their first single " EVOLVE " The extended version ( someone has left the link in the comments already ) it's more " violin heavy " and a rockier - I really think you'd enjoy it !
That Van Halen sound was a guitar.
Some lefty guitarists, e.g., Albert King, just flip the guitar over without re-stringing, and play with the fat string closest to the ground. That boggles my mind.
East of Eden is one of my favorite bands (outside of Band-Maid, who are my #1).They have three other mvs so far on their official CZcams channel, all are worth checking out. I was lucky enough to discover them the day they dropped their first mv, Evolve, and I was hooked instantly. They have one EP so far (this song isn't part of it) and have also released a Blu-ray of their debut concert. They're great live, too.
Bassist Wakazaemon’s popularity may indeed be because her public persona is as many people’s spirit animal. In fact I believe she is a workaholic geek who loves retro cars, minimalist lifestyle?(not sure), and music gear. She’s been a pro since her mid teens, and seems fiercely independent. See the link that someone provided to her interview on Marty Friedman’s show, where she discusses recording at home at the last second, and mentions that she’s always the youngest (an even bigger deal in Japanese culture).
Left handed guitars are a thing. I love Kiko Loureiro’s comment (to Rick Beato) that you never see a violin or piano reversed for lefties (he himself is lefty but plays a standard guitar, like, best in world). But Waka’s bass is built to be played “reversed”: knobs at bottom out of way of picking hand, cutaway at bottom to make room for fretting hand. (Flipping a standard guitar would have these issues.) some guitarists have simply flipped standard guitars in the past. Then, only some of those people reversed the strings to have bass strings nearest face, while others truly play upside down! 🙃
I always enjoy your reactions ❤
Here is the link for East of Eden "Evolve". This was their 1st single. Enjoy!! And I look forward to watching your reaction to this one!!!!
czcams.com/video/gL2GQWhJaNQ/video.htmlsi=-OD4ZbpExV8HsL7H
They were hired for this - it's not their composition. Try the first release, "Evolve [Extended Version]". That gives you a better idea of what they do. 🤘🔥
EoE are great! Love Wakazaemon's bass licks, she's so good. I do think you need to do more Unlucky Morpheus though to really hear how Jill fits into more of their songs (Or their new side project, Unholy Orpheus.) BTW Jill will also be featured in a new song by HIZAKI, "Stella Maris" releasing 1 June. HIZAKI is the guitarist for Neo-Classical power metal band Versailles.
this one is already very good, but their first one "evolve" is a true masterpiece.
Unlucky Morpheus is one of my favorite bands... live.
Personally I never listen to their studio recordings, because the sound of the mix is always very congested and saturated.
But live you can easily individualize each instrument, from what I consider one of the ten best live bands in the world, as evidenced by:
"Dignity of Spirit":
czcams.com/video/x7W9DcUKY_U/video.htmlsi=ZdVRDEnrNnts1awC
"Condemnation is Universal Among Humans":
czcams.com/video/XPFLjLcH_Mo/video.htmlsi=Mih46cUPCzasJi1X
Their instrumental side is no less spectacular:
Eruption" + "Dance of Eternity"
czcams.com/video/XC2A1hbuLmI/video.htmlsi=RuRCcpDAMfhrC3XV
I love the “Condemnation” song. I prefer the live version with both singers, but ok. And I remember seeing the title translated as “Judgement is laid down before humanity”. Fuki’s lyrics sometimes use old language (think Shakespearean), sorta stations must be fun Ha🤘💃😎
Waka-chan’s bass isn’t upside down silly - it’s a left-handed bass that’s all. She’s a phenominal bass player!
That's a left handed bass, it's not an upside down bass lol, that's how a normal bass looks like but this one is just made for left handed people.
The Band lineup is:
Ayasa(Violin)
Akane Minato (Vocal)
Yuki(Guitar)
Wakazaemon(Bass)
MIZUKI(Drums)
Wakazaemon is such a fun and interesting bassist. A lot of skill in a small package there. They are fastly becoming my second favorite band out of Japan. They all were accomplished musicians before forming this year. Ayase is the founder of the band.
yuki! 🤟
If you want more violin by Jill from Unlucky Morpheus, I would recommend checking out her Tonerico project she did with an other violinist. There aren't a lot of of videos on their channel and the track they picked is pretty electronic based, but the whole album is really good and reminds me of a mix of power metal, electronica and just Japanese video game soundtracks in general (obviously all with a large dose of violin). I really like it.
Japanese music schools are training more, mostly girls, in classical music. And not all of them end up in symphony orchestras, and not all of them have the interest. So you will always find classically trained young women in metal ;)
The bassist is simply left-handed and nothing more. Jimi was too. There are many more.
