Great reaction! Please add "From now on (official MV)" and "Shambles (both live and official is great)" to your list :)

So, to pick the song for your next reaction, I went to The Maid's TH-cam page, closed my eyes, and scrolled around. My curser landed on "Real Existence" - LIVE. Banger! That's actually a really easy way to pick the next one cuz ya can't go wrong! (Seriously, it's kinda bonkers how good this band is.) Great reaction! 🕊

I first saw the extended solo version of this song at Lollapalooza in Chicago last year. I didn't stop grinning for days.

Well discovering *BAND-MAID* in 2019 and *BAND-MAID* had around 20 Videos to choose from I believe *DICE* was the 1st one then *Choose Me* and then *REAL EXISTENCE* I don't know the exact order but it took me 2 days to binge all 20 videos. Then finding out that there was live video out there from *STUDIO COAST* and *Zepp Tokyo* the next day I went to *Amazon* and *CDJapan* and started purchasing their entire catalogue. ☺ _What was the question again?_

I'm sorry now you can't go back 🤣for a live video I recommend "onset" If you like instrumentals

Domination LIVE was my intro to Band-Maid. Have no clue what happened after that but had no problems with clicking on a thumbnail that said Band-Maid. I do remember after listening to Onset LIVE that there are still bands that do instrumentals and now have been listening to them every day now for almost 3 years.

My first was Play Live. My thought was "I haven't heard a band this good and have this much fun in a long time". Play would be a good one to check out. Great crowd participation

I first saw Thrill... reaction: huh... that rocks pretty hard. Maids, eh? Second I saw Real Existence... reaction: huh, that's even better. Is this real or faked? Wonder how they sound live? Third was some random fan cam, can't recall the song... reaction: Huh, not a great recording, but that sounded pretty good anyhow. They absolutely can play live. Wonder if they have any live videos. Fourth song was Domination Live... reaction: Holeee foonoogalators that was one of the most kickass performances I've ever seen! I have to dig deeper!

My first thought when BAND-MAID started popping up in my feed was "what the f__k is this?" My first song was Domination live, I was like ok. Second was Onset live, I was like, damn! Then it was Freedom live and I was like alright! I started doing full albums after that starting with World Domination. I almost exclusively listen to BAND-MAID now. 😊❤

I can't remember if my first was Domination or Dice, but I do know my third was Freedom. First time I heard Hate? was the studio, and I thought it was about in the middle for the Unleash!!!!! EP, but that's what the Maids do. They take a song and arrange it for live and make it epic.

from JAPAN。　　This live version is indeed wonderful. However, you have only seen a small part of BAND-MAID. I'm sure you'll get lots of recommendations from Maidiac, but enjoy your BAND-MAID explorations. I look forward to the next one.

Tip of the iceberg for Band-Maid! Lots of great songs for you to discover!

This is how I became a Maidiac: My first Band-Maid song Thrill (MV)...oh, okay, they sound interesting. My second song Dice (MV)...they are good! My third song Domination (live)...okay, I'm sold, PO!🕊💕 So I suggest Domination (live) for your next reaction😉

*PapiNoob* your in big Trouble!!! 🤣🤣🤣😂

*BAND MAID!* making people speechless around the world 😀 🤘❤‍🔥🤘 As for the first song I heard from them, it was *Choose Me* way back in 2017.

You need to watch their instrumental ONSET is Live also in their channel. Base also goes crazy

About 8 years ago I saw the Thrill video

This was towards the end of 3 n 44mins show , n their still killing this song

Thanks for reacting to the greatest hard rock band in the world!

Well, just keep following this awesome band ! 😊😊

Great reaction. Thank you for supporting our Maids.

I also recommend haunted by her

Not sure if she plays the piano in this but I'm pretty sure she does play so it definitely could be !

They definitely rock.

Hej The Inalect Exp., welcome to the world of Band-Maid. Hope to see more Band-Maid here in the future.

BAND-MAID does Anime Songs. You could try 'Shambles' from Krngan Ashura, or 'Unleash' in which they appear in Anime Form. Harder? Yeah, Hard, Soft and everything in between. They can do it all! And, as their April Fool's Day persona, BAND-MAIKO, even Japanese Traditional.

Great reaction, Jawsh, subbed!

1:25 song 1

Nice. Thanks!

Between The Warning and Band Maid Rock is in a very very safe hands. This was the song that got me into Band Maid. I love how they miss the 7 note in the main riff, it is so unexpected and cool, almost no one else does that. There are so many great band maid songs, a ton of which have live versions too, and a handful of Acoustic. If you want heavy I would recommend Blooming.

Once you steep yourself into the Band-Maid history & culture, you will see why The Maids are so well loved across the Planet. There are now over 150 videos of songs, concerts, interviews, documentaries, etc, that you can react to if you wish to follow the path. You will quickly be welcomed into the fold of "The Maidiacs"

Welcome to *BAND MAID* and the *MAIDIACS* 🤘❤‍🔥🤘

Like you, "Dice" was my first exposure to The Maids and after about 7 seconds, it was OVER! I knew this was something REALLY good. But, I had no idea how special a find Band-Maid is. And believe me, these ladies are SPECIAL (understatement of the century). Once in a lifetime, man! I'm subbing to watch you go STRAIGHT down The Pigeonhole! 🕊

If you want harder check out the band Lovebites, also from Japan... songs like "Judgement day", "Set the World on Fire", "Holy War" and "Shadowmaker" to start with!

Some song suggestions for you are Moratorium, No God, Rinne, Onset, From Now On, Hate, Without Holding Back, About Us, Play, Why Why Why, Endless Story, and both versions (live and video) of Don't You Tell Me. They have a catalog of over one hundred great songs. If you are not fond of one then choose another because it will be much different than the one before it and the next one to follow. Have fun with it!

You have just struck the mother lode mate,over 130 plus killer songs full of genre mixing and one of the best if not the best live band I’ve come to know in my own humble opinion

"Dice" is a... Nice way to start getting to know Band-Maid.👍 Also check out "YOLO" and "Alone", they are similar to "Dice", but even better.😎

Its not "Bocchi d Rock",, her name is " KANAMI TONO",, but I admit that BOCCHI is also a good guitar player,, 😂😂😂

Thanks for the reaction and comments. These ladies are FIRE!!!!! Arguably the best live rock band on the planet, they have something for everyone. They don't fit neatly into a single genre. Keep listening and you'll soon discover that they are literally their own genre. If you want something a bit heavier, try Shambles (MV), but to truly appreciate their talent try one of their official live videos. Hate?, Play!, Domination, Moratorium, Real Existence are just a few suggestions but you really can't go wrong choosing any one of their songs off their channel. Cheers!

Congratulations you just found the best band on the planet🔥🔥🔥🎎🤘🎎🤘.

Glad you found this band. Maids are.. just great

You have not seen nothing yet😊 yeah you wanna see skills try HATE OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO FROM YOKOHAMA ARENA! AND KEEP GOING YOU WILL BE HAPPY🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

You really need to check out their live videos. Bans-Maid is Soooo much better live!

I know you caught the two guitarists later. :) One plays Rhythm and she's the band founder and main lyricist. The other is the Lead who composes all their songs. The Lead guitarist teaches the Rhythm guitarist how to play as she's only been learning and playing for the past 11 years.

Welcome, Jawsh. You are embarking on (along with many others - over 200 million views just on their official YT channel, plus over 40 million reactor plays!) an awesome, progressive, hard-rock journey with 5 incredible women. Here's my intro blurb for those who may be new to Band-Maid: BAND-MAID’s songs and sound beat with the heart and soul of all rockers. But you’ll also hear heavy influences of Prog, Punk, Metal and Pop, with nice touches of Blues, Jazz, Funk and Grunge. Sometimes they use multiple genres within the same song. Their Composition, Execution, Joy of Playing, Consistency (130+ songs), Uniqueness, Charisma, Charm and, oh yeah, Cuteness factor, position them as becoming the hard rock Beatles of our time! In other words, they’re destined for mega-stardom. Each member's personalities are super interesting and their musicianship among the best. Their writing, arrangements and overall sound, especially guitar tones and drums, are kick-ass! Having seen them LIVE, I can honestly say their performance, sound, stage appearance, and band synergy is off-the-rails spectacular! Band-Maid is the only band in decades where I love nearly EVERY song they’ve done. I have over 70 favorites! "Thrill" (2014) is a great place to start: th-cam.com/video/Uds7g3M-4lQ/w-d-xo.html Their songs from albums Unleash, Unseen World, Conqueror, World Domination, Just Bring It, Brand New Maid, and New Beginning drive even more - Hate?, Shambles, Influencer, Warning, No God, Different, Black Hole, Rinne, Blooming, Moratorium, Domination, Clang, Dice, Spirit, Don’t You Tell Me, Turn Me On, Fate, Play, Hide-And-Seek, Secret My Lips, Puzzle, Choose Me, I Can’t Live Without You, and on and on. But don’t miss out on their powerful, beautifully written, mid-tempo songs like Daydreaming, Bestie, About Us, Memorable, Anemone, Endless Story, PAGE, At The Drop Of A Hat, Mirage and Smile... or more punky like After Life, Don’t Let Me Down and Screaming… or funky like Bubble… or bluesy like Manners and The Dragon Cries… or poppy like Start Over… or a bit jazzy like Wonderland… or progressive like No God, Giovanni, and Black Hole… or cultural like the Band-Maiko series… or instrumentals like From Now On, Don’t Be Long, Onset, Without Holding Back and Going Nuts… or their many acoustic versions like Catharsis and Sayonakidori... and last but not least, their Anime hits (AniMaid) like Sense, Glory and Unleash!!!!! (from their own Anime MV (series?)): th-cam.com/video/7LB_EPS48HE/w-d-xo.html) And many songs are represented with over 50 well produced music videos. th-cam.com/users/BANDMAID Most performances should be experienced from their LIVE audience & online OKYUJI concerts:  2023 Yokohama 10th Year Anniversary Concert “Endless Story” th-cam.com/video/Za1y-RRVd70/w-d-xo.html  ONLINE OKYU-JI (Feb. 11, 2021) “No God” th-cam.com/video/nAdWnIRjGak/w-d-xo.html  Tokyo's LINE CUBE SHIBUYA (February 14, 2020) “Domination” th-cam.com/video/QbyQCJn6rYg/w-d-xo.html  ZEPP 2018 “Real Existence” th-cam.com/video/-qQnKILR5u0/w-d-xo.html  Shinkiba Studio Coast 2017 and other full concerts are on bandmaidprime.tokyo, bili, and official Band-Maid’s DVD/BD/CD. And some of the better quality fan videos are excellent. Here’s two of what it’s like to see Band-Maid LIVE at an intimate venue:  Shot by Pat McKee from their 2023 US tour concert in Detroit: th-cam.com/video/DgxU-MVjta0/w-d-xo.html  See the Maids 2023 Rockville Festival’s short-set perfection performance: th-cam.com/video/vjZkNeoGmhc/w-d-xo.html If you like Band-Maid, make sure to support them by purchasing some concert tickets, live streams, CD, DVD/BD & merch, etc. bandmaid.tokyo Like most Band-Maid songs, I like them from the get-go but really start to appreciate them after more hearings and seeing their LIVE videos. I'll go back and see an older song like YOLO, Order, Shake That, Freezer, Don’t Let Me Down, Before Yesterday, Real Existence, Non Fiction Days and Alone, etc. and realize there's no band that can consistently construct and play like Band-Maid. For fun, check out:  "Mega Band-Maid Mix" by DJ Ray of some of their earlier stuff: facebook.com/djrayboston/videos/1004709499579009  Band-Maid MIDI covers: www.youtube.com/@DeanF_MIDI  Reimagined compositions of Band-Maid songs: www.youtube.com/@fxdxmusic Band-Maid Members: Saiki Atsumi (Sy-i-Key or Psyche) “StarQueen" - Lead vocals, arrangements and melodies. At 30 and the youngest, “Sensei” (Teacher) as band members call her, has the last word on many musical decisions. High-heels or sneakers, Sai-chan’s smile melts away her sometimes perceived, coldish persona. Saiki’s powerhouse performances, charisma, and voice focus the experience that’s driven her to the top echelon of hard rock frontwomen... or frontmen! Miku Kobato (Me-Ku) "Small Pigeon" - Rhythm guitar, vocals, lyricist, 32 years old. “Koba”, as Saiki calls her, is the Band founder and a firecracker MC & PR SpokesPigeon, po! Her “Magic Spell Time” charm and energy ignite the room. Kuruppo! No, no, no… KURUPPO!! Kanami Tono (Ka-Na-Me) “Princess” - Lead guitar, keyboards, 32 years old, is a prolific writer of most Band-Maid material. Kanami (translates “Song Wave”) is a possessed riff-slayer who’s so damn adorable it hurts. The only thing you want from Mincho is more! Akane Hirose (A-Ka-Nay) "Gorilla" - Drums, 33 years old, band energizer & co-clown with MISA. Achi’s talents include massive consumption of noodles and bananas, of course, (even during performance!) while revolutionizing rock drumming with relentless drive, dynamics and the kick. This “DrumZilla” is the Party! MISA (Me-Sa) "Barefoot Assassin" - Bass, 31 years old. An alluring free spirit driving her 5-string to rapturous low-ends while pulling off surprising counter leads with Kanami, off-stage MISA is the band’s goofball ballerina. Sometimes seen as the Mysterious One because she lets her instrument do the talking, the Assassin literally kills it… every note... uniting Band-Maid’s world-class rhythm section. A slug of JB, a slight grin, and let the slappin’ begin… MISA! MISA! MISA! Maidiacs (Maid-e-acts) - Band-Maid’s crazed yet supportive, knowledgeable and loyal Super Fans. [BAND-MAID NEWS]  BAND-MAID PRIME - Special Video Distribution Website.
