Can't do anything but agree with everything you guys said. Let me add this though. This is still my pick for album of the year. No one has come close yet, IMHO.
Band Maid loves to bring different elements into their music. It keeps their music unique and fresh. They have great talent as musicians, composers and lyricists. Even though Kanami does most of the music and Miku does most of the lyrics, the rest of the Band contributes and makes it what it is.
They are so in sync with each other and they are enjoying performing together. The music and lyrics just get better. Miku's lyrics are highly respected in Japan and now Saiki contributes to the lyrics. While they have more fans in Europe and the US than in Japan, the Japanese respect them. Stan you are correct about MISA, in an interview she said that she creates her bass lines from the music sent by Kanami and that the lines are pretty much unchanged in the final song. I consider MISA the second lead guitar. Miku has a signature guitar from Zemaitis out, a A24MF-FP known the Flappy Pigeon. Miku designed it. FYI She is playing it in this MV.
@@GaryHolloway-810 Kanami ran over and hugged Akane's gorilla feet. Saiki walked over to MISA and took her JB bottle from her hands as she was guzzling it, and shot back the rest. Akane begun grunting and belching while beating her chest causing everyone to think she was counting off the next song. Miku flew back in and they all started playing again without missing the opening beat. Quite a scene I understand... but typical Maid behavior. 🦍
"And there is no doubt about the technical credentials of MISA. She is a graduate of the Tokyo Music School, one of the most prestigious music schools in the world. If you have heard of the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, then you will understand how impressive that credential is."(RaijinRock)
Great reaction to a great song! Agreed, very talented and there sure is a hint of progressiveness in this one (as many of the songs of the new "album" are). Thanks!!
"pride and modesty battle resolve and desire"... "love is for all but trust made by the few"... "move the clock forward ~ your feelings, show me what color have they become"... Are you fucking kidding me right now? If Miku wanted to be a rap or poems writer she'd be one of the greatest lyricists ever! I gotta learn Japanese so I get it all without subs some day
I think Kanami and the girls produce the most dense yet completely integrated music for any hard rock band in history. And if you isolate Saiki's singing, it's amazing how many runs and vocal techniques she uses, especially in "No God." But she can be overlooked because of the flurry of notes and sound flying around her. You gotta love these super polite, unassuming geniuses that become warriors on stage and in the studio! Thx Brian & Stan for another great reaction to the greatest hard rock band on the planet!
Your right Tom. The one thing i think detracts slightly from "No God" is, because of the multi layered vocals it's hard to pick apart the individual instruments. The instrumental shows clearer how complex the parts are :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 Yeah, people can really see and appreciate just what's being played if they watch the No God instrumental version showing each member playing their part. People can see this on the DVD/BD/CD AVAILABLE OF BAND-MAID’S FEB. 11, 2021 2 ½ HOUR ONLINE LIVE OKYU-JI CONCERT. IT IS AWESOME!! 28 SONGS Plus 5 Bonus Recordings showing individual playing by each maid! Info at their official website. bandmaid.tokyo/ Also some reactors have covered it.
@@GaryHolloway-810 I'll disagree, after listening to this song 810 times, I can now pick out all the parts and even the soft wing flaps and pigeon toes tapping out the beat.
From the insane bridge to the first half chorus at half speed , speeding up to the second half chorus, gathering every note in that brilliant way... of course they are progg. What makes them different is that they do it in an absolutely fun way. Every song is a party.
Can you please react to jenni rivera la mentada contestada live from the staples center p.s she was the first artist in the Mexican regional categorie to sale out the staples center 🙏.
I love both the acoustic and the live versions. The slower acoustic set really highlighted the vocals and gave you better visuals in each band members role within the song but it's definitely different with altered lyrics, slower tempo, and altered composition. Listening to the slower version makes you appreciate the fast version they present on tour, but I suspect the songs will evolve and become different over the years. Like many other music groups, there's going to be a more diverse selection of songs and various versions played for each song.
Band should be called "Band-Aid" it's what everyone that thinks this is good music needs to patch up their brains. Don't even think it would be considered music. I would put it more into the genre of NOISE.
If you haven't already, you need to watch their interview "BAND-MAID Music Gold Rush" parts 1 & 2. It is a lot to take in. You will need to watch it a couple of times.
You are absolutely right. In many bands you could safely fire the bass player without missing her/him much. But with B-M, every single one of the ladies is an equally strong pillar in the band's construct, which could hardly cope with such a loss. Their individual talent is already enormous, but what the ladies do with it as a group multiplies the whole thing many times over. On top of that, they are indeed damn pretty and have fun doing what they do. In my opinion, they form the perfect package that cannot be surpassed by others at the moment. 【 'Our rock never dies ever. Forever!' - Band-Maid 】🕊️

This song is controlled chaos, and no one does it better than Band Maid.
Miku is rocking her Zemaitis "Flappy Pigeon" signature model here.
No God, just five rock goddesses! Happy Birthday!! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂

I'm giving you a 👍for a great comment :)
Miku designed the Flappy Pigeon? So I'm NOT crazy when I see a ぽ ("Po") in the roses!
You think you couldn't love them more after watching their videos, and then you go see them live, and it's next level - total addiction.
Stan the Maids told Akane she looked hilarious walking out on stage wearing comedy gorilla slippers. Akane replied "What comedy gorilla slippers"?
Akane's answer flipped out Miku so much, she flew off the stage and out the loading door.
@@TomClark-Futoura Lol. Flappy small pigeons get spooked quite easily :)

@@TomClark-Futoura I heard Saiki wanted to throw up later but the Maids said "No, we're not playing Onset" :)
Thanks for getting down with BAND-MAID. I gave the video like number 420, you're welcome. ;-)
The best live rock band in the world, with the album of the year.
MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Barefoot Bass Assassin , strikes again .

The best hard rock band around and probably for the last 30-40 years or so. They're in a league of their own...and they have MISA 🔥
Great reaction to a great song! Agreed, very talented and there sure is a hint of progressiveness in this one (as many of the songs of the new "album" are). Thanks!!
MISA was certainly getting down with that funky bass line. Happy B-Day!
🙂
I got down, too, but I'm so old that I couldn't get back up. This is an unpaid advertisement for LifeAlert.
@@patron40silver lol, Tigger please. If you are not in your 60's then you are not old 😉 And if you are then take your medicine, lol 🥃🥃🥃

I guess you have not checked out some more songs from their recent album. Warning or Manners would be for next reaction.
From the insane bridge to the first half chorus at half speed , speeding up to the second half chorus, gathering every note in that brilliant way... of course they are progg. What makes them different is that they do it in an absolutely fun way. Every song is a party.
Excellent live fun band. Superior songs. Never boring. Always rockin. Peace.
Misa's bass tone is the best. Love these ladies.
The best, most innovative, most fearless rock band in the world today. Great you came back to them. This entire album is crazy.
Can you please react to jenni rivera la mentada contestada live from the staples center p.s she was the first artist in the Mexican regional categorie to sale out the staples center 🙏.
Love how happy Akane is while drumming. Also loved her getting into it during MISA's bass solo. ♥ Band Maid!
Thanks guys! Happy Birthday!
Please react to BAND MAID Manners Music Video, thanks, Saludos
You said Jaco, Po! Nuff said.

they talk philosophical issues to rock and are unique - and they say a lot fast including a conclusion "We have got to win"
