ABOUT: 🔻
Band-Maid is a Japanese rock band formed in 2013, consisting of singer Saiki Atsumi, guitarist/singer Miku Kobato, lead guitarist Kanami Tōno, bassist Misa, and drummer Akane Hirose. The band combines a rock sound with a maid image modeled on Japanese maid cafés. They are currently signed to Pony Canyon

The combination of her and MISA, I think is one of the best in the business right now.

The more we learn about this band, the more we love this band.

@vincenzo-maidiac-5457 3 месяца назад

Akane is not only on a high level, I think she is one of the most impressive musicians I have ever heard. She is a complete drummer, she is fast, she hits hard, she is never boring to listen to, she is brilliant at composing and on top of that she is cool when she plays! Trying to cover some of her songs is literally impossible if you are not an experienced drummer, it requires a lot of skill and a lot of memory.

@JohnnyReacts1 3 месяца назад

Yes, what that other RU-vidr said about the way she changes as the song goes on, how it is similar but different is incredible.

@rockyetsx70 3 месяца назад

In a September 2022 fan newsletter where Akane was paying tribute to her long time friend Kanami, she described the band as a community of destiny, they are a tighter group than most families. On the Band-Maid official fan site there are a bunch of behind the scenes videos that make it clear that this relationship is absolutely authentic and real, and it does make these ladies adorable as people as well as musicians, and foster so much respect for them. They had two long documentaries that were sold with live albums, one of the US tour behind the scenes and one leading up to the Yokohama Arena show, that show all these individual personalities that come together to create this amazing ego-free music. They take their music seriously, but they don't take themselves too seriously.

If you watch an older version of the Kanami documentary, you can hear four people commenting on Kanami's guitar playing.

Band-Maid has definitely overcome struggles, as you say. They may have been signed to a label from the start, but from traveling overnight across Europe in the back of a van to perform in tiny venues like Polish basements, to selling their own tickets, to inviting family to show up so someone would be at their shows...it was not glamourous. One thing I like to point out in this video is that we have footage of pre-Band-Maid Akane in a bar band. This is so unlikely!

@BRO-HI808 3 месяца назад

Akane...Awesome isn't she! Great reaction and we can see you're really liking the information being provided. And being in Japan, your little additions of your experiences make these reactions more enjoyable. Akane, like all the members, brings something to make Band-Maid special. I loved the band before these documentaries. I knew some of the information before them, but seeing it in this format, you just have to love each of them more... Will be looking forward to your next reaction...MISA! MISA!! MISA!!! And on your own time, I think it's worth while to go and watch the first versions of Saiki and Kanami. They both are excellent too... PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘

@JohnnyReacts1 3 месяца назад

Many thanks, I'm looking forward to learning about Misa too.

@@JohnnyReacts1 That's her nick name, given by herself. Miku is The Pigeon(810 Year old one), Kanami is the Princes and is called Mincho, MISA is The Barefoot Assassin (plays barefoot on stage) and Saiki, the Ice Queen.

@jjo154 2 месяца назад

I think that, as bad-ass as a drummer Akane is, she's even a better person. You can clearly see that in the way the other band members look at her and the way she interacts with them. I was touched by what Saiki said about Akane when they first met.

*Being in the music business for over 30 years I was very impressed and inspired with your story about the drummer AKANE. Your story is very well put together even though you're not a musician. Neither am I I am in entertainment agent and promoter but know a lot about music and sounds and melodies. The band is incredible and a story of the drummer AKANEis amazing!! Thank you for this video*

There will be an update to this one and Misa as well. O feels his Miku is perfect, and that's why he's been updating the earlier ones, bringing them up to the Miku quality.

In 2016 Jimmi Page of Led Zeppelin saw them play live and asked to meet the drummer. She thought someone was playing a joke on her. You can google search the image.

@JohnnyReacts1 2 месяца назад

Weird, I have already replied to this message. Oh well, maybe I'm going mental. This is very cool, yes I googled it when I read your message yesterday and I don't know who would have been more excited about this meeting because they are two legends.

@Ohrenje just released a short and touching documentary on "About Us", a very-special song to maidiacs especially. It includes a full-length English-subtitled performance, so could be a combination documentary and music reaction...

The cool thing is, Band-Maid will play at Osaka Gigantic Music festifal on the 21st of july AND on the same day Maximum the Hormone will also play. Guess Akane will meet Nao from Maximum the Hormone !!! 😎😎😎

We love Band-Maid's music, and at the same time, we love their personalities as well. Miku - She is an icon of this band. We are watching and enjoying her improvement of guitar skill. Kanami - She has 2 faces like On/Off. When she grabs her guitar... as you know. Misa - She is always calm and stable. She plays another beautiful melody in background. Saiki - Her voicehas been improving during this decade. Check her strongest voice in Unleash!!!!! (Yokohama live). Akane - Smile on hard play. She can't walk around on the stage so the other band mates like to gather on her. Above is what we fans know well. We love it, we fell in love with them. I guess most of fans have imagined "How do I welcome them if they come to my home?" when we close our eyes in the bed.

@grahamreed8774 3 месяца назад

I guess that when parents encourage their children play music at 4 years, they hope that they are going to become classical musicians. But now they use their early music education to form rock band's etc. Great insights into Japanese culture- Thanks.

@Thefoxgod9 3 месяца назад

Thank you for doing these reactions! I have a humble request that I think is going to rock your socks off. It involves quite a few of the East Kami band members like Boh, Takayoshi Ohmura, Hideki, Isao, Yuya, and the late and great Mikio Fujioka. As well as some others who haven’t played with babymetal but perform with the east kamis on other projects frequently. The song is called The Hill of Wisteria full version ft MLG Avengers. It’s got 2 lead singers, 3 Guitarists, 2 Bass players, and 2 drummers. It is a final tribute to Mikio Fujioka after his passing and features his guitar playing from a previous version of the song that was just an instrumental. The original instrumental version has been played at a Babymetal concert but was never released officially because it is a Takayoshi Ohmura original. I hope you will consider checking this one out and thanks again! 🦊🤘

she once said " maybe I'm not the right drummer for band maid?" she was very worried. however, she tearfully said that she did her best because she didn't want to leave band maid or be separated from the other four members

@BillHallisey 3 месяца назад

Johnny, thanks for this reaction. While I have seen this documentary in the past, but your insights about the culture in Japan adds something to why we love these documentaries and making it more of an ambition to travel to Japan next year to see Band-Maid and some other J-Rock bands and to see that beautiful country again.

A really cool moment happened some years ago when Jimmy Page heard Akane and said he thought she was the reincarnation of John Bonham. He had to go backstage ane meet her. There is a photo of the two of them together, just Google both their names and it comes up. I just call it legends recognizing legends.

Great réaction but you make a mistake about Female Métal in Japan. For your information the First Female metal Band is SHOW-YA born in 1981. Show ya still important in the metal scene.each years from 1987 they've produce a Female Rock and Metal show : called Naon No Yaon festival in Tokyo. The Rock and Metal Female community is very strong. They're Friends. Each Band go to concert of the others to support. If for a tour a musician is not availabe , they've found support ( ex: last year FATE GEAR had a problem Haruka their drummer couldn't tour in Europe on August Junna a other drummer help them, they've had same problem this year for they're August tour in USA. Junna give a hand for the second Time. Junna is now the member of HAGANE. they're no issue with HAGANE & FATE GEAR). Haruka still the drummer of FATE GEAR and also to CHURA METAL.

That is very true, I see this every day working at a Japanese school, however, it is improving. Also, I don't think this idea is just in Japan. I can remember when I was young I wanted to be an actor, and all my teachers tried and discouraged me. However, the West is mainly about individualism whereas the East is about groupism, and both have their flaws.
