Don't stop here folks - you won't have a true grasp of them until you hear 4 or 5 songs. They are one of the hardest working real live hard rock bands out there - and many of us think the best in the world. This is a very early song and they've come a LONG way from here. Try either Real Existence Live 2018 or Domination Live 2018 next (because they are even better live). Their songs are all so different, you just don't get tired of them, and they've got a LOT of songs, like over 100 with NO duds. They are that good. This song is great but doesn't show the extent of their playing ability. After the two above, check out a couple of their newer tracks, like Manners and Warning. Honestly you can't go wrong - literally any song of theirs is great, which leads to my last point. Not only are they now an extremely talented and tight band, but their songwriting and arranging is silly good. You've got bass solos, multiple guitar solos in the same song (often underneath vocals) and even drum solos (Freedom Live Feb 2020). Buckle up! (Oh - and they have this knack for making you smile until your face hurts.)
This is their very first music video ever. This was 6 years ago. You should see them now! Check out the live videos. Best rock band on this planet!! You will get many comments. Be prepared.
Great reaction and at first listen to Band-Maid, a lot of people struggle with "that sounds like????" They have a unique sound that is all their own but reminds people of something they've heard before. To me this is probably the best hard rock band currently playing and they have just gotten better and better from when this MV as released and they started writing their own songs. They spent a lot of time playing small clubs from many years, honing their skills and becoming one of the best live bands today. Pick any video from their channel, they are all good and the live are better.
Welcome to the world of BAND-MAID. These talented ladies have been rocking since 2013. Their music are mostly hard rock but they do have songs that are heavier with metal elements as well as ballad if you fancy slower songs. This particular song was their debut MV and has garnered 14M+ views so far. They are phenomenal live performers and I encourage you to watch "Domination", "Play", or "Freedom" from their official channel to witness their greatness. If you prefer to see their latest, then please check out "Warning!", "Manners", "After Life" or "About Us", which is a ballad tribute to their fans. Your journey has just began and is ready for you to explore their 100+ discography, in which, every single one is good. They do not have a single bad song, and I kid you not. Thanks for reacting to them and looking forward for some more.
In this video Miku (red flower in hair) the founder of the band had not learned to play the guitar yet, but the rest of them are skilled musicians. But Miku has learned well to play the guitar since then thanks to Kaname the lead guitarist.
Great to see you both looking into Band-Maid as well as Babymetal. Just for a moment, forget they're all female and forget they're dressed as maids. Two members (MISA - Bass, Akane - Drums) are classically trained pianists and musicians who studied at the Tokyo Academy of Music while Kanami, the lead guitarist, has also been playing piano since the age of 3 or 4 but is concert standard (almost unbelievably, given her skills, she only switched to guitar about 10 years ago!) They all have superb musical ability as well as passion, a lack of ego and the drive to play real, in your face, Rock which is why they are THE best live Rock band on Earth right now. OK, now that's explained, you can go back and marvel at how cute those outfits look and how incredibly beautiful all the band members are. The only band I've seen that is playing live like bands I went to see in the 70's, such as Led Zeppelin or Sabbath or Zappa. Music they write themselves, real guitars, drums and bass played loudly and with passion as well as powerful Rock vocals. They are all really close friends and know how to have fun together on stage, confident as they are in each others’ abilities and skills. They've revived the classic Rock sound and given the genre a much needed kick in the ass, as Babymetal have done for Metal. Future reactions I'd recommend, as they really shine brightest live, would be from the DVD they released in April. FREEDOM:
Welcome to the world of BAND-MAID. Best live rock band out today!! BAND-MAID combines rock, metal, punk, pop, jazz and progressive into a sound all their own. Check out their live videos from their RU-vid Channel where they really shine!!! - suggest - Real Existence, Play, Domination, Onset, Wonderland, Choose Me, etc etc etc and MV's - Rinne, Manners, Warning, After Life, Different, Blooming, Bubble, etc etc etc, but ANY video you choose is fantastic!!! Always a smile when listening to BAND-MAID.
Great Reaction... Everything they've done is good. They really start to figure out their sound in 2016, and have become completely realized in their last 3 albums.
