SO sick of people calling something a "reaction" video when they already know the song.

This is speaking of something that happened to Jonathan in his early life

You're Gonna Go Far, Kid would be along a similar vein. Want You Bad, would be fun to see Mika's reaction, though. I guess you need to think about sharing one of their harder songs, poppier songs, or goofier songs next.

Oof.. the Creed reference is rough. This song/album is about 3 years prior to Creed even being a thing and about 6 before their first album came out. You probably were reminded of Creed because Scott Stapp did his darndest to copy Eddie's sound... kinda like someone would in karaoke without any subtly or variation.. just hard "rawls" over everything. Creed is what you get when you order Pearl Jam through Temu.

Genocide... off the album Smash

Manners is probably my favorite song by them. I could listen to it 10x a day lol.

Ahhh actually bleh blah bloo I have dreads and demand to be taken seriously

Is this dude supposed be some kind of Punk guy? As a 52yr old Punk, Old School NYC hardcore MF'r, I can say from the bottom of my steel toe DMs it saddens me that you two are what we have spawned

The chocolate industry up to this day is the world's largest employer of slave labour... Which is sad, because I like chocolate... 😢

As a brother to a special needs sibling, I have seen vicious bullying up close. I 'step in'. Most people don't. I doubt you are exceptions.

I am an old school punk lover.... I think the first three albums are the best....

From your interpretation of the song "Time", i think you two would like the entire album it was from, "Dark Side of the Moon". There are reasons it was on the Billboard album chart for 14 years before falling out of it. It is a concept album with an underlying theme, which i won't spoil as you deserve the chance to find it yourself. Good review of "Time"

love it! I'm glad the punk head sees the authenticity of The Offspring...I feel like they erroneously get lumped into the pop punk genre...I get it it was that era, but dang these guys are legit punk imo...that hollow-body guitar sound? that is so OG punk!

Man, you should have started with their older stuff to convert a metalhead to The Offspring. As a big metalhead myself, I think their best guitar sound was on Ixnay In The Hombre. Such a perfect tone they had on it. Personnally, anything from Ignition would have been a better pick for her. Genocide, Gotta Get Away or Smash would have been my picks out of Smash album. From their first record, I would have have hesitated to go with Tehran, Jennifer Lost The War or I'll Be Waiting. Out of Ixnay, I'd probably go with Amazed or Change The World. Hope to see more The Offspring for her ! But go with their older stuff :)

Offsprings first two albums Smash and Ignition deserve full listens. Peace/JT

And it really hits harder as you get older because all of this stuff happens. I've lost 3 friends to s*icide and a lot of my old friends are living at home with no job. If only 11 year old me knew what was in store for me

Absolutely love The Offspring and The Kids Aren't Alright was the first song of theirs I discovered other than Pretty Fly😅

J'aime bien sa perruque au monsieur.

the moment you paused during the solo is the moment you lost me

The National are one of those great bands. I remember hearing about them when they released High Violet via an end of a year poll. Fake Empire is amongst my favourite songs from this band.

I read about Jeremy Delle and when I read that he gave a friend a letter and asked to send it out for him and that the envelope wasn’t sealed and his friend was gonna read it but the bell rang to go to the next class so she forgot about it. When I found out it was a suicide note, I was like “no way 🫢😧”. I can’t imagine how his friend felt when she realized what she had in her hand after she found out what happened. I’m not blaming the friend, I’m just saying that I know if I was in that situation, I’d probably blame myself, break down crying nonstop and fall into instant depression. I probably would need therapy. It would take me a long time to get over it if at all. They always say that if you do what Jeremy did, the pain doesn’t die, it just gets passed on to someone else. I would probably be that person if I was in her situation.

Jesus Christ… Metal expert and you don’t know who Rob Halford is? Zero credentials needed to have a podcast

Hamster was correct on Kanami's influences. Impressive. Thanks for the reaction

I want to see your lame game

Please react to amazing guitarist, Rei - Heaven th-cam.com/video/rtIHxaiKHFE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PR4uJd_GZuF3tRN6

Manners is my favorite Band Maid song Black Hole was a little too busy and chaotic on first listen but now after hearing it a few dozen times my ears can distinguish each instrument and the nuances in the the vocals So give Black Hole a few more listens, let it slow down for you and you will love it like all Band Maid songs

greatest sketch ever :D

Suggestion: all-female hard rock band from Albany, NY - *Plush* newer band formed in 2020. This is their most recent radio single "Run". th-cam.com/video/ywr9RBxnFGU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HU7NQA3A2O9V2xsS

I sure hope both you have a chance to listen to NOFX - The Decline. Recommend the Live at Red Rock edition. It is a treat, but prepare for time to go very quickly! Enjoy!

no spaceships in sight but how many songs can you recall about black holes? and not just as metaphor.. 'controlled chaos' - tightly structured but giving us listeners a sense of falling /or being sucked into an abyss. check out the lyrics of these songs... always interesting - e.g., manners (our way of doing things) is a kind of band manifesto -and a recapitulation of their adventure and career as a band - and the hahahaha backing vocal by miku is a kick back at the naysayers...

I love backup vocals too. Its all these extra potential instruments available to a band, and they're so often underutilized

Don't forget how amazing the drummer is!

the ones with similar names to yours are Miku and Misa. Sorry, no Mika

I also preferred Manners to Black Hole the first lime listening to this twofer, but I had already seen the Music Video and already loved the song. As far as 'Southern Rock' goes, I also don't see it (my idea of southern rock would be something between Charlie Daniels and Lynyrd Skynyrd), but it does have a very bluesy sound which in itself has southern roots, so maybe something there. Black Hole has grown on me with repeated hearings, and I love the "Space Adventure" aspect of their approach to the Black Hole (of Cygnus X-1 perhaps?) BAND-MAID reminds me of Rush many different ways, (Prominent Bass, excellent musicianship and challenging pursuit of perfecting their craft) so this song continues in that vein.

🤘🤘🤘

Gotta give Akane the drummer props ....she's an absolute beast. Every member of this band is top-tier musicians and seeing them live is a must for anyone...seen them multiple times and always stand in front of MISA and her bass just kicks your ass.

I hear the Southern Rock as well, Manners drips Kenny Wayne Shepard.

Good job!

One more comment on this band. I never even tried to figure out how much I like a song until I've heard it about 50 times. I know I'll wind up loving them all because that's how good they are. It takes a while for their music to really sleep in because there is so much to it.

I'm probably the 500th person put this up but you're right on the money with the classical music reference. She listen to primarily classical music when she was playing piano when she was younger and her main influence was Frederic Chopin. And yes that is very much like flight of the bumblebee!

So, you like backup vocals. The fun stuff with BAND-MAID is that Miku often sings another (leadish) vocal than Saiki. Its like two lead singers. And BAND-MAID do that a lot. Even with the instruments. Both drums and bass are playing intricate lines while the lead guitarist is doing the lead. And sometimes also Miku's guitar play do the same. And the Black Hole song show that in extreme. There all five members do their own thing. I even think Miku is doing two things. Then you have six threads at the same time. Black Hole is am impressive achievement.

Dleiberately chaotic after all it is about a black hole and the tendancy towards entropy (chaos)

🤘🤘🤘🤘Honkai next please it is absolutely amazing.Drums and bass intro on it totally blew my mind as did the whole song.

Great reactions guys. A few facts- Kanami (Music and Lead guitar) composes in an orchestral style- the instruments playing different part of a composition coming together as one. Astrophysics- A Black Hole is a star that is so dense that even light cannot escape its gravity and all the references are about what it might be like being sucked into a black Hole- the genius that is Miku (Lyrics, backing vocals, rhythm guitar). Thanks (UK)

Manners is a classic groove rock song and Black Hole is their fastest and most chaotic song at 220 bpm, which gives you that weird dizziness one might feel as they're being pulled into a Blackhole before you get spagettized. 😂

Like your channel! Thanks Bill!

Black Hole=Astronomers Nationalsong!

Space? Because, “Black Hole.” It becomes a different song as you listen to it more.

Twin vocals. SAIKI and KOBATO are the vocal equivalent of a twin-guitar attack.

Blackhole is written purposefully to be barely controlled chaos. It’s their fastest as far as BPM and that’s why the lyrics are about a blackhole, it’s just a collapsing insanity. It gets better with subsequent listens, but I think Manners is a masterpiece, so it’s fair that it’s rated higher.
