Livingston= Amazing!!! You can't go wrong his lyrics just draws you in. I Love it!!!!

Y’all need more folk punk if this works for you. Try bands like Days n’ Daze, Apes of the State, Ramshackle Glory, and Holy Locust out. Witches Wrath and Song of the Siren are early greats by the sinners

They are great! I suggest "Song of the Siren", "Devil Like You" and "Unholy Hymns".

🤘Love Band Maid!!!🤘 OMV... "From Now On", "Shambles", Warning" or "Bluming". Official Live... "Domination, "Play", "Real Existence" or "Onset"... that will get you started....

Well done 🤘🏳‍⚧🏳‍🌈(⚵⚶⚴𓌂𓐍𓏏𓁐⚳⚢⚸⚑☭)🦘

These ladies are so talented and such great performers. I just want to give them all a big hug for bringing happiness into my life.

Hate? : meaning not just hate, but something beyond hate.

This group is probably the only group in the world that can perform this song live without making any mistakes. This is amazing ability. I can understand why it is called the world's best rock glue.

Thanks for the reaction. These ladies are FIRE!!!!! Hate? is probably the best F*OFF song ever performed on stage. And IMHO they are the best live rock band on the planet. Please check out Play (official live video). Cheers!

In an interview, Saiki (lead vocal) explained about the "?" mark in the title of this song. When Saiki wrote the lyrics, she wanted to use the phrase "I hate you". She decided the title to be "HATE" first, and then she realized that "HATE" could be read "はて" in Japanese. Because "はて" is typically used in question, she put "?" to make the title "HATE?". I'm sure that Saiki was smiling a lot when decided on this title with "?" because she guessed that English speaking fans would be puzzled by it😏 "はて?" can be translated as "What?"😉

Saiki (lead singer) wrote the lyrics for this one and they're pretty blunt. I see the title as the starting point of the interaction, with the male saying something like, wait, what was that you said about me? "Hate?" And Saiki proceeds to answer. She gives him exactly one more line -- "Why don't you try to understand me?" -- sung by Miku (rhythm guitar, backup vocals), but the reply is just more linguistic nut-kicks. 😅

It's amazing how Band-Maid has rewritten the laws of nature: Hate brings Love! 😖--->🎀--->😍 Some news... -- The Warning, a world-famous band from Mexico, and BAND-MAID recently completed their amazing 2-man, collab concert in Japan with the introduction of their new song, “Show Them.” -- BAND-MAID released a new song, "Bestie," co-written with Mike Einziger of INCUBUS! The MV dropped May 1, and their new song, "Protect Me," written for Anime (AniMaid), dropped 07/07/24. And Band-Maid's new album is nearly ready. -- BAND-MAID HALL TOUR 2024 -- July 5, 2024 (Fri) Osaka, Fenice Sakai Main Hall, -- July 14, 2024 (Sun) Kanagawa Kenmin Hall, Kanagawa -- July 21 OSAKA GIGANTIC MUSIC FESTIVAL 2024 -- Aug 16 RISING SUN ROCK FESTIVAL 2024 in EZO -- Aug 17 SUMMER SONIC 2024 -- Sept. 8, 2024 TREASURE 05X Festival in Laguna Beach, Gamagori (But you might already know all this.) Thx, Nathaniel and Casey!

Best rock band on the planet, po!

Only Band-Maid can make you love Hate! A powerhouse band!

Band Maid is notorious for delivering surprises in the live setting. I don’t know of another band who considers a show with such reverence. As the place where each member of the band is arriving to serve the fans. It’s a different cultural dynamic here. They will write extra lyrics, add unique intros, and as you see here, insert a bass v guitar interlude. Thanks for mentioning the next reaction. “From Now On.” Hehe. You have no idea what you signed up for 😂 One small, respectful bit of feedback: your voice volume is much higher than the video music volume. I say this only because I always listen to “From Now On” at full, maximum volume. You should, too 😊

Next up Japan has another all female band that will be in the U.S. in September that features duo guitars and a double bass beast on drums in Haruna Lovebites Shadowmaker live from Ride for vengeance 2021 Tokyo Dome th-cam.com/video/wmAKRiG89Qc/w-d-xo.html

Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 I witnessed this very performance at the venue on Nov.26, last year. Very exciting 3-hour-40-minute-long show with 33-song setlist. (Happy fatigue thereafter 😄) Band-Maid is one of the best bands in our country, especially in live performance. We say "Japan is the country obsessed by Rock Music". The history is very long and the obsession started in 1966 when Beatles visited Japan and held 5 concerts at Budokan. Speaking of hard rock / heavy metal music, a number of bands started to come to Japan since as early as 1970s : Led Zeppelin / Grand Funk Railroad (1971), Deep Purple (1972), Queen (1975), Kiss (1977), Cheap Trick / Van Halen / Scorpions (1978), Judas Priest (1978/79) and so on. Now, any type of rock can be enjoyed here, especially by many all-female or women-fronted bands. They are daughters of American / European rock, for sure. (Many are grand-daughters in terms of age.) Uh-oh, we also say "Japan is the country obsessed by Jazz". It had started earlier than rock 😄

From the outro: "Don't give a shit no more!" - Sai-chan

Nothing better than Akane beating the drums into submission.

Great reaction guts and the singer Saiki wrote the lyrics; there was a lot of cheating occurring during covid lock down reported in the press at that time and Saiki was pissed. The singer LISA (a friend of drummer Akane) was also affected by this as her husband was caught cheating and created a big scandal. They're not afraid to be clear in their lyrics when needed :D

You might want to do a level check. The music and the reactor on the top are very quiet in comparison to you.

Band Maid recently did a show with and collaborated on a song with *The Warning,* which is a band you should definitely check out. Try 'Automatic Sun', 'Evolve' (from the 2023 MTV VMAs), or 'Disciple'. They have a large and very enthusiastic fan base.

Best rock band on the planet. Try REAL EXISTENCE live or NO GOD live for some more toe tappers.

I still thinks that she have feelings for the guy?

Saiki absolutely guts the guy that pissed her off. I almost feel sorry for the guy

This is from their 10th Anniversary Tour Final at Yokohama Arena. 3.5 hours 33 song (this was #27) setlist.

The Maids rip!!

They have it. They feel it. They got the GROOVE. 11 years and 130+ songs of pure greatness 💥 They have it all..Passion Work Heart Talent. Magical band, amazing musicians, close friends. Best band in this Universe 🔥 Lovin’ Band-Maid ❤️

Those darn pigeons :p . Our MAIDs just can't stop rockin'!

If you think of the Misa/Kanami bass/lead battle as a couple arguing the structure makes even more sense. And it makes it sound even more expressive

Next one up needs to be "Protect You", their music video release. Don't get confused but the "Ou lala, lalas" is actually Japanese for "we're gonna kick your ass!".

How can "Hate" feel so good!!!!!! Roger and the Carrier Pigeons are helping to bring the message of Band-Maid to the world. Don't doubt that these diminutive Japanese women will soon rule the world of rock.

Volume is unlistenably low

Thanks for the fun reaction, gents, glad you appreciated the aggression of the song! Subbed! I'm going to recommend the Puzzle live video for your next one. The question mark on the title Hate? is a sort of linguistic double-entendre... I'll let Saiki explain: Interviewer: By the way, what does the question mark in the title signify? Saiki: The title is written as 'HATE?', but I read it as 'ha-te' [ハテ] (haha). Interviewer: 'Ha-te'?... Oh, like '...huh?' Saiki: Yeah, like "I keep using this 'hate' word, huh..."

The “?” Is, as far as it’s been described to me by native speakers, is a pun. The inflection that a ? Adds to the word makes it sound like a Japanese word

Crank up the volume please - it's Rock'N'Roll

Wtf the volume should b at 11 , it's the band of maids po!

who can forget when bananas marched across the Serengeti like a bobbing yellow tide to see BAND-MAID live in concert. Most didn't make it across the wide nanadile infested rivers but some realised their dream of reaching Tokyo to sacrifice theirselves for their goddess Akane :)

Carrier Pigeons continuing to assist the Maids in their quest for world domination po! 🍺🥴🕊️

Herman Li of Dragonforce actually put on a maid outfit doing a a stream with Miku ( back-up vocals, rhythem guitarist, founder) and Konami ( lead guitarist ). It was awesome.....lol. great reaction and I hope you guys do more...

welcome to band maid, greatest band on ANY planet!🌎

👍👍👍

They have lots to check out. They are very eclectic for sure. Try Rock Bottom and Pick Your Poison

Welcome to BAND-MAID! How about Don`t you tell me, or dice is the next song? I hope you`ll enjoy it!

3200 views in 2 days gentlemen. I think you found something good. Try another. Here's a few titles. For MVs, Dice, Blooming, or Alone. For lives, Freedom, Domination or Hate?. Instrumentals are great too. They have Onset or Without Holding Back. You really CANNOT pick a bad song with these ladies. Later we can check out 3 sisters from Mexico called The Warning. They are great too.

👍🤘😁🤗🥰🕊👀

New sub here. You stand upon the precipice of either falling in love with BandMaid or getting distracted and thinking they are just another band. They're not. They are arguably the greatest proper rock and roll band of the 21st century. Hyperbole is very difficult to avoid with BandMaid so screw it. I envy you so much. There is so much wonderful music,, tears and laughter ahead of you if you keep listening. There's no way to describe here why all the things they do combine to create the music. Tons of riffs - enough to make an album for most bands in one song. More hooks than grandad's tackle box. Genre bending writing and performances. In damn near every song a sing along bit for the fans to keep us engaged. Word play between English and Japanese homophones is not uncommon. Deep collaboration between all members to allow everyone to shine. What they have done is harness their egos in service to the song. Akane Hirose and MISA are IMHO the greatest rhythm section currently active in rock music. Truly inventive bass and drumming - not over played but always interesting with unusual choices that make the songs rich. They're not just keeping a beat EVER! Magnificent composition and stellar guitar work from Kanami Tono and equally magnificent vocals from Saiki Atsumi grab us by the ears.Then There's Miku Kobato- no Miku no BandMaid. Founder, chief lyricist, vocal harmonies sung while playing rhythm guitar she is the backbone of this group. She's the lead singer who fired herself so that the lead singer would have a more rock and roll voice. She's the singer who learned to play guitar while in the band. A paid professional learning her instrument on the fly. Now she has her own signature model of Zematis electric guitar. She willed BandMaid into existence. I haven't even begun to say all I could. Come and see for yourself!

Herman Li from Dragonforce once tried to join "Band Maid" as a sixth member, he wore a maid costume during the interview (audition) with Miku and Kanami (bith guitarists). But he wasn't good enough 😅 Just search for "Band Maid" and "Herman Li" on YT ... By the way: Kanami is not just the lead guitarist but also the genius composer of all songs these days. But wait until you see Akane on drums and Misa (MISA MISA MISA) on bass in action 😊... Next song? "Play", live of course❤ if you want to listen to a studio version of a song I'll recommend "Warning" for example.
