BAND-MAID GREATEST BAND ON PLANET EARTH!!!

Kanami Tono is the most underrated rock guitarist in the history of rock. She is Hendrix and SRV reincarnate.

Happy birthday MISA.

Both MISA (bass) and Akane (drums) are graduates of The Tokyo School Of Music. Kanami (lead guitar) would seem to have received private tuition (certainly for piano and probably for guitar). Miku (rhythm guitar) is being taught by the best (i.e. Kanami!).

there must be something in the water in japan that grows amazingly talented and beautiful female musicians .just can't get enough

Band-Maid are the best imo. Period.

Hi, from Tokyo! Thank you so much, sir, for reacting to Band-Maid!!! Glad you enjoyed them! You can easily see how much they love what they are doing on their live shows. The happiness and love that flows out from their smile make everyone soooo happy!!! Your reaction to PLAY was awesome, too! Thanx again for spreading and supporting Band-Maid to the world!!! ☺

For the most part they write there own stuff. Some early stuff was given them by their record company

Their 2 nights at The Echoplex in LA, Sept 30 & Oct 1, are "Sold Out", but the resale tickets are affordable...

🤘🤘❤️🤘🤘 Oh yeah!!! 😁 Puzzle live is also Bada$$!!! 🤘🤘

MISA MISA MISA!

One word. Fire

I salute your resistance to pause during the guitar solo, for doing so will miss the cream on top, which is the drum emerging from behind the guitar then bridging back to vocal, short but achingly sweet!

The English subtitles were different from the official lyrics that were provided with the album. This is the official translation: I want to be immersed in that atmosphere just a little bit Pump it out, feeling Look at me! Look at me! Don't get in my way I'll pretend just for you Shot me down! (down) Down! (down) I'm not like you I won't be satisfied just by sweetness Hey catch me if you can It depends on you I won't let you get so close so easily I'll pull a feint And make your feelings go crazy, perverse love Let me play with you more *Just begun, bring it now! Turn me on, with just words, No No No I won't let you say them, turn me on The answer is always No No No The truth and the lies are both secret Only you are so special Don't you think so? Turn me on, don't be so submissive Yeah Yeah Yeah Accept it all, Want me Even if I were bothered you were being docile An unusual feeling You should be! You should be! It's so hard to hear This is "you" right? Shot me down! (down) Down! (down) I'm not like you I'm not stupid enough to drown Don't think less of me I'm determined I hide lies in my smile Acting like the joker Scornful perverse love Manipulate me more *Repeat x 2

Well I'm officially turned on after that performance. This band play so well together. As for the writing Kanami writes most of the music now and Miku takes the lead on lyrics. However The whole band is involved with the arrangement of their own instrumental parts. Can't wait for their new album, due out in December!😁

Glad you enjoyed it. It makes me wanna pick up my guitar too! Kanami (lead guitar) writes all the music. Miku (rhythm guitar, backing vocal) writes the lyrics.

MISA is a goddesss!

Kanami (the main guitarist) write almost all the stuff. She is a musical genius.

Turn Me On 　すごい曲だ。ライブでやってほしいなあ。

Turn me on is one of my favorite songs from band-maid, along with Shake That! and Order (its a bit hard to find videos of those two songs though lol)

Absolutely get tickets. VIP recommended. It's like double the cost you'll want what's with it. I've seen them like twice. 1st VIP I got a group photo with the band ( 🤩🤩🤩🤩) & 2nd time I got a signed poster they all signed infront of me as I was walking in. Yeah real face to face interaction with the band & physical reminder of that brief but wonderful experience 😍😍😍😍

Miku (Guitar vocals) writes most of the lyrics. Kanami/Akane/MISA write the music with Kanami likely doing most of the music writing. Saiki (lead singer) occasionally writes lyrics

That drum part you liked is what we sometimes referred to as going into a double-time gallop. But you've got to keep it rockin', as Akane, MISA, Miku and Kanami certainly do. Keep the Band-Maid hits (over 80!) coming.

Another good reaction and commentary video. Just a little sad that Band-Maid is only doing 5 shows in the US and none anywhere close to me. I would like to see them live.

It's funny, when I hear video reactors mention bands they feel BM reminds me of I go back a couple of decades earlier, giving away my age lol. I've heard riffs that remind me of YES, Boston, Styx, Ritchie Blackmore and others.

Misa enjoys drinking whiskey in between songs, too cool!!

In the future this will be hailed as a Classic Rock Intro Po!

I'm not exactly sure which part of the drums you're talking about, but I think it's called a Flam. For more Call & Response Guitar Battles do 'Take Me Higher' LIVE and the best I've ever heard in 'Don't You Tell Me' LIVE.

Never picked that up before but ya, there are hint of RtL in that solo. Nice catch.

I was thinking that these ladies should be on a bigger stage, opening for "Big Name" group. Somewhat how Babymetal got western exposure. But thinking a little more if you were a "Big Name" rock group would you want to follow these ladies? So I wonder if fear is why they are not touring with a "Big Name" group. You have said that you are a music teacher for young students, THANK YOU. What you are doing in our educational system is so important for our future especially exposing your students the Music from the world not just the US and Europe.

As early as 2016, Jimmi Page himself noticed the talent and class of drummer Akane Hirose, when after the concert he personally congratulated her on playing and asked for a photo together - i.redd.it/oyz2nkizzqv21.jpg

Maybe this is an off-the-wall thought or idea. But I don't think so. Because they incorporate so many different genres of music. Not only has a band, but even in each song. What would be really cool for them. And give him so much worldwide exposure. Is if they were asked to do a theme song for a Bond movie. Because the way they change it up. Going from hard to soft and back again during their songs. And with that big sound. I think that would be a marriage made in heaven ! And would give them the worldwide exposure they so rightfully deserve ! I also think they should be asked to perform at the opening ceremonies. At the Olympics in Japan this year !

Another source of guitar insanity is Polkadot Stingray "Telecaster Stripe" or several other songs from that time. Their new stuff is more mellow, but they can lay you flat with precision chaotic funky smoothness without overplaying. And that voice will stick in your head. I'd make more specific recommendations, but they don't romanize their titles.

Lovebites - Shadowmaker

This is what rock wanted to be when it grew up. If you are ready to lose your scheiss completely, check out Wagakki Band. "Senbonzakura" is popular, I love "Ikusa" but since you said you like live performances... Throw a freakin dart. They are insane live, and you will wonder who tf is running the board. Metal with traditional Japanese instruments. Not word thingy for speak tell, must listen for know. That level of mind-blowing.

i think it's called the thrash beat-by the way cool lid!

Kanami is responsible for the music score

if you like the call and response, check out Take Me Higher ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vFyYiPDZzdw.html and Don't You Tell Me ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-foqErbEw05o.html also from Zepp Tokyo 2018.

My fav Band Maid song - anyone have an idea why they pulled it from RU-vid?

PLEASE react to Asterism, 16 year old Japanese girl playing guitar like she sold her soul to the devil.

BAND-MAID: Don't You Tell Me ( live ) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-foqErbEw05o.html Guaranteed to give you goose bumps.

🈯 The Vapors🈯 "Turning Japanese" lyrics ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yCj2I0EJ9PM.html 🎵I'm learning Japanese🎵I think I'm learning Japanese🎵I really think so🎵 When an American band plays in Japan (or Germany, France, Spain, etc.), they sing in English. There are plenty of live videos on RU-vid that have examples of that. Their fans, if they want to, learn the lyrics in English. I know that I have got some new Japanese words in my vocabulary. BAND-MAID and BABYMETAL play all around the world. Are they supposed to learn a new language for every country that they play in? Shirley Knot! lol

You really should check out the live version of Moratorium (my favorite song from BAND-MAID), it's raw, it's heavy and just amazing: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-N7BQCkUb4SI.html

“Like watching Michael Jordan play basketball” is the perfect way to describe these geniuses. How can you fall in love with 5 women at the same time? Simple, watch BAND-MAID.

Try listen to Band Maid - Libera

Do a reaction to their song "Take Me Higher". Great back and forth between the bass and guitar on the solos. MISA slaps the hell out of her bass in that one. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vFyYiPDZzdw.html

For another great bass / guitar call response try this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-foqErbEw05o.html
