- Come check out my very first reaction to Band Maid! I had a lot of fun with this song and I hope you guys do too!
Listen to it for yourself here: • BAND-MAID / REAL EXIST...
They're more Hard Rock than Metal, but they're really heavy and good!!!
A BAND MAID song to recommend? Hmmm. I got more than 50 actually. Short list: Moratorium, Take me Higher, Dice, Play,Thrill. Really any song they have is pretty darn good...you'll see. BAND MAID is a deep....deep rabbit hole 😀
I highly recommend the bass guitar it can sing very well :v
Don't forget "TURN ME ON" !

stimproid. I can't find a ladder high enough to climb up from that hole. And I don't want to either.
Saiki says this song most accurately embodies Band Maid's soul. It certainly highlights their playing skill which is awesome to say nothing of Saiki's voice and her ability to sing an entire song without seemingly breathing. Notice Kanami's look to Saiki for approval after her brilliant solo.
These girls are awesome, they have so many great songs! 🤘
Best hard rock band in the world...you must really see them live
"Play" live
"Puzzle" live
"Onset" live
"Take me higher" live
"Choose me" live
"Moratorium" live
"Don't you tell me" live

"turn me on" live
"Awkward" live
"Freedom" live
"Yolo" live
"Clang" live
"Fate" live
Definitely check out more of them! Pick any song you want! There isn't a bad Band-Maid song, and they're also definitely a live band. I would go as far as to say they sound better live than they do in the studio. So much talent!
There are no bad Band-Maid songs. Generally their live performances are better than their music videos. With that in mind I would suggest "Play", "Puzzle", "Moratorium", "Take Me Higher" and an instrumental "Onset". Be careful, Band-Maid can become addictive and all consuming. Lastly, I think most Band-Maid fans consider them more hard rock than metal. Liked your reaction very much and look forward to more.
The more usual description is they are a hard rock band with some metal and punk influences. They sing in Japanese with a few English phrases. They have one song, "Don't let me down", that is all English.
Try their MVs "Dice" and "Daydreaming". Hell, try anything by them. The band was started in 2013. The members are :
Saiki Atsumi - main vocalist
Miku Kobato - vocalist and rhythm guitar. Band founder. Lyricist for their songs
MISA - Bass
Kanami Tōno - lead guitarist and song composer. Their early stuff like this song was written for them, but starting with "Alone" they have been writing their own songs,.
Akane Hirose - drummer
Akane is an admirer of Nao Kawakita the female drummer in the insane Japanese metal band Maximum the Hormone. Kanami is a fan of Carlos Santana and MIsa cites D'arcy Wretzky, the former bassist of Smashing Pumpkins as an influence.
They played SF and LA last year, They might be back in the US later this year. They just signed with Live Nation the big US music promoter.
@rakjr6 MISA is also a big fan of Paz Lenchantin (Pixies, Queens of the Stone Age, etc.)
@@rickwagner- Paz was also in Smashing Pumpkins for a bit, as well as the Tool offshoot A Perfect Circle (for their 1st album at least). She also did a couple solo LPs which are interesting.
She's got hold back a little, she's got a full show to play. Plus she's got to serve the song. That's what I love about them, is that no one person overshadows anyone else.
Hey Dude! Plenty have already made it clear that Band Maid are Hard Rock with metal influences. But they also enjoy and are AMAZING switching it up and having some fun with a lite rock ballad or straight up pop song. It’s not very often, but they put just as much creativity and earnest effort into their lighter dalliances. So the end result is me, a happy metal head, wondering how someone managed to make him like a pop tune!💪🏻🤘🏻
Thats my maids rocking out.True talent.
Hi from the UK. Great reaction vid... If you want to hear Saiki's vocals at their best check out Puzzle and Anemone (both acoustic versions from this gig). This track was about 20th in a 2+ hour concert which may account for the "economical" vocals.
Saiki (the vocalist) is a very strong singer. Just keep in mind this was a live performance, and IIRC, towards the end of their show....which in Japan is usually 20-25 songs long. So definitely some fatigue setting in.
I was in the crowd when they recorded it, at Zepp Tokyo. This is basically the first 'full concert' blu-ray they released, and it was "just" a bonus of a special edition new cd.
What happened when they were having fun betwen them ? Fact is, Misa (the bass player) is always playing shoeless, and during this song Saiki (the singer) decided to take off her shoes and kind imitate her and walk around shoeless as well.
About the music, as already been told by other people, they are a hard rock band, they aren't a metal band. They have songs that varies from ballads to almost heavy stuff, but in one way or another, I just can't find a bad song coming from them. My all-time favorite is "Alone", but if you want to see how good they are, try to find also from that concert the song "Turn me on" followed immediately by "Don't you tell me" (those are 2 songs played one after the other); you can hear really good guitar and bass solo, especially in Don't you tell me. You won't regret it.
I was laughing aloud when I saw the name. So Japanese! - Oh and it seems to live by its name too.
Listened Japanese metal I suppose 20 years ago. Haven't since. Well, I did check BabyMetal's Karate video, them being reacted by many people. It wasn't for me though.
This is much more to my liking! Thanks!
they are always fooling around and teasing each other! They have fun on stage! Cheers!
BAND-MAID ⁄ Onset (Instrument) [ZEPP TOKYO] - instrumental.
BAND-MAID / DICE - clip.
Brand new album released on Revolver Records on 3 April entitled Band-Maiko. Seven songs mostly written by Miku, and they credit on the album music by Band-Maiko and arranged by Band-Maid.
This one is a good example of how much damn fun they are to see live.
But not the best example of the lead singers's (Saiki) voice.
You're right, there's usually more energy than there was on this one, late into a really long set.
They have a solid catalog of great songs.
I like to say that other groups have hits, but that BAND-MAID have triples and homeruns.
I have to request my favorite BAND-MAID song 'Secret My Lips'.
Here's a live one: th-cam.com/video/SPgKG8MCDjA/w-d-xo.html
And you definitely want to react to this before 'Secret Maiko Lips', the special April 1st 2018 version.
It's great news that Band-Maid has just signed with Livenation. I hear they are very happy about this, I know I am, and will be watching their upcoming schedule with great interest
@@johnmatthew102 your wish (and many other's) came true lol going to book my ticket for the Dallas show in the morning
The interplay there between bass and vocal was because in the song before this on Saiki (singer) went into the crowd and lost her shoes, so she was performing shoe less, and the bass player, MISA, always plays shoe less, so she came over to make fun of Saiki. Just good fun among friends.
Well, another new band you have introduced me to. Thank you again for expanding my music horizon. Keep up the wonderful reactions Shaun.
Welcome to Band-Maid!'
You are right about the vocalist - check out any of their "Official" videos. Another fine click you made me do!
One of the best bands in the hard rock scene right now! Check out more of their stuff, im sure you will be flooded with requests very soon so i might aswell get it started ;)
"Turn me on!" Live at Zepp Tokyo:
th-cam.com/video/Fp9FxQsGQ_k/w-d-xo.html
Hard rock band with multiple influences. And the best there is on the planet today. Hands down. And they are prolific. About 74 songs recorded in the last six years. And they haven't recorded a bad one yet. I have my ticket for the September 30th show at the Echoplex in LA and l cannot wait.
Try BAND MAID “PLAY’’ Live
This song was from early in their carrier where management dictated the songs and music arranments and while very good, once they went independent and took over creative control they only got better and better! So, not the girls fault, it was just made at a time before they were the powerhouse of today's Bandmaid!!
For another all girl Japanese group, check out Ladybay! (The new reboot after Ladybeard).
Ladybaby - HATEN NI RAIMEI - Thunderstorm!

Saiki, the lead vocalist had just had vocal chord surgery four months before this concert.
Do "Moratorium" live by Band Maid next! =D
This was the second time I heard Band Maid. I would say pretty okay, not my favorite style, but not bad. I'm not an expert, but I'd say they are more rock than metal. I think I have to check out a few other songs by this band to get an overall view. The band itself seems cool and energetic.
It's great that you react to different types of bands.
MISA MISA MISA! song 25 out of a 26 song Serving
The singer, Saiki, was most likely tired. I believe this was the final song of a 20 something song set (sure I read it somewhere), she would have had a couple of 5 or so minute breaks while the other members entertained the crowd, but otherwise they play every song back to back. I've seen them live, it keeps the energy flowing constantly for the whole show.
It's not a Band-Maid song, you'll get plenty of suggestions for those but please could you look at Voltage by ガールズロックバンド革命 (Girls Rock Band Kakumei), their drummer is from another world.
th-cam.com/video/9k9txMouU34/w-d-xo.html
Yup and Saiki was briefly abducted into the audience before thís song. That's why she was giving someone in the audience the finger at the beginning and why Misa tried to cheer her up ;)
saiki holds back a little they do 2 to 4 hours straight worth of songs thats why
What to recommend? All of them. Honestly, I've not found a single bad song from them. I saw them in person a few months ago in LA. And yes, they have a blast on stage. There is so much I can say about that show, just go see them.
I usually start people off with "Take me Higher" or "Play" live, or the official Dice video. But at this point, just start clicking. They will never let you down.
they are NOT just another band.
Check out "Choose me" live by Bandmaid or "Play" for kind of a introduction to the abilities of each member :)
Also welcome on your journey with bandmaid, you are in for one hell of a ride
Band-Maid will rock your face off, try out Secret My Lips and Puzzle. Enjoy!
Keep going with Band Maid there are so many songs and they are all good
They are having fun. I think Saiki (The singer) is challenging MISA to get on the ground in the belief that she won't be able to get up again as she is probably drunk. The girl likes a drink. They are all a bit strange in one way or the other but the drummer Akane is the most normal and therefore the leader of the band. The other guitarist Miku thinks she is a pigeon, believes in ghosts and usually casts a spell on the audience. Saiki is the youngest and quite moody and usually goes out of her way not to participate in promoting the band or interviews and quite often doesn't even look in the right direction. She likes trains and collects model trains (She has a model train wash) she often goes to the race track with Miku to look at horses. She has 5 friends now having had just 3 friends last year. She's super strange but at the same time captivating and mysterious.
This band is genuinely amazing
Live videos are much better than promotion videos. My recommendation is 'you.' and 'YOLO'. But every song will never let you down!
Band Maid すごい！Try ASTERISM they are phenomenal metal trio
Start with Rising Moon (th-cam.com/video/IfxMi0Bx4x0/w-d-xo.html) and let some TEENS show you how to play as a really tight trio blending Metal, Hard Rock and Jazz!! These kids are going to be the next super group Cream (1966-68) who imploded due to egos and fights but made some awesome music over 4 albums and 3 short years. This group is well on their way to be as good and I dare say maybe better if they stay together and keep working with their gifts!!
you're gonna find many more live songs of band-maid if you search for band-maid and zepp instead of live
Read a lot of the comments basically I agree with them there are no bad songs and every member of this band is top in their music expertise and the lead singer is fantastic oh they just happen to be women, and the rabbit hole is very very deep.i love this band(65year old metal head and rocker) they are right up there with anyone one can’t believe they are this good at there age. Their music maturity is off the charts🤘
Welcome!
Love Band Maid......but sorry they're hard rock not metal
You mention that the vocalist seems to be "holding back." What you might be hearing is that her voice is a bit tired in this recording. This was the second last song of a 26 song set. There are a ton of great videos from that same live DVD though.
Reason for the smiling? Shoe-less. OMG at 2:33 Saiki our lead singer starts laughing when her and MISA come together. Saiki is NOT wearing any shoes. (2:42-2:44) Both her and MISA and barefoot on stage. MISA is like . . . welcome to the club . . . isn't that more comfortable!? As someone else mentioned this was the end of the show. Standing in high heels for 2 hours and dancing around the stage can be brutal. At the end of the song they are back on though. I guess she had them by the drum platform.
Did you get a ticket for the US shows? London last Saturday was Beyond Awesomeness!
One of their earlier songs before they got control of their music. LIVE is the only way to go and really the best way to really feel this band is Take Me Higher LIVE (th-cam.com/video/vFyYiPDZzdw/w-d-xo.html). If you are are really going down this rabbit hole you are in for a wild ride. Great reaction and let's see where this goes as the BM army is about to come after you just like Floor's NW horde. BTW this is the best rhythm section since the super group Cream was together (1966-1968) and they may eventually be even better.
I wonder if they'll still be rocking out when they're in their 70s like the Rolling Stones?
Maybe not, but they will look better.
If you want super Hard Rock you should check Maximum The Hormone they are insane
5:56 I don't think she was holding back a little bit. I think it's because this was the last song of a 2+ hour long show, and she was a little worn out.
Good reaction! BandMaid sounds, riffs and rhythms feature a mix of hard rock and heavy metal. The metal derived from the original hard rock is further subdivided. I think that the song will be boring as the standardization progresses.
Some female JMetal:
Lovebites (PV promo vid as opposed to MV music...), Don’t Bite the Dust. They sing all in English th-cam.com/video/Gq-JZ6deYwM/w-d-xo.html
Not as big as the BM bands, but Def international.
Bridear, Scream (live). This song is actually in English, tho it’s very tough to hear thru their accent. Listen in the slow part, “I finally realized how much it meant to have you by my side”, sweet girls (HA!)
th-cam.com/video/Mwp8RKL9RyY/w-d-xo.html
This band is basically less metal(sounding) than BandMaid (this from before BandMaid started btw), but they are so proficient on their instruments that they make best of lists anyway. Similar amount of English as BandMaid, tho hard to hear like Bridear; listen for the drummer “you should. Not de-nounce. me...” and “do you. Think that. You want to beat on me...”
Doll$Boxx, Take My Chance th-cam.com/video/mu2z4Uf9Tgc/w-d-xo.html
Enjoy!
KurroPo! Mika chan!
Band maid - Dice👍
But, i think they are hard rock band..
React next to Play ,Turn Me On and Freedom live
For another live video try Don't You Tell ME: th-cam.com/video/foqErbEw05o/w-d-xo.html. Otherwise, the official studio version of Dice is a good 'un th-cam.com/video/ZpAYnVJX9CY/w-d-xo.html
They're great fun to watch on stage bacause they so obviously love what they're doing!
re: your comment about Saiki (lead singer)
This was song 25 from a 26 song concert at ZEPP TOKYO.
Try 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗨𝗠 from the same show:
th-cam.com/video/Ezc6p3RpQIo/w-d-xo.html 😎
When you run out of BAND-MAID, try Lovebites. These ladies are a little more metal - this is an official video and they inserted an ad around 1:35, so just wait and it will start up again - th-cam.com/video/k3wyUbfl6TY/w-d-xo.html.
Then on to DOLL$BOXX - th-cam.com/video/mu2z4Uf9Tgc/w-d-xo.html - be sure to watch the whole video - it has some humor in it, and be sure to listen to the blue-haired drummer's vocals at different parts.
The vocalist may have seemed to be holding back because this was song #25 in a 26-song setlist.
please react to Devil Within - Flames of the end a full on japanese metal band
"Best live performances search results came up pretty slim" Oh he doesn't know.....
REACT TO BAND MAID PLAY LIVE
J-rock my man
The well is deep with these women. Enjoy the journey
Here’s a good place to start
th-cam.com/video/YeiIju_t1D8/w-d-xo.html
Try Their song Dice and others
Take heavy rock and pop-punk and place in a blender. A few dashes of thrash metal and a sprinkling of prog.
For God's sake - they are NOT heavy metal. They ARE a "ROCK and ROLL" band.
They are all female - and they actually play the fuc#$ng instruments - and damned well - IMHO
This is ＨａｒｄＲock no metal
Play live and don't you tell me live
Baby Metal isn’t even in there League
Don’t know why, but I find the vocals messy and uncontrolled. Much prefer Su Metals vocals from Babymetal. Only thing I do like is that they play their own instruments.
How dare you compare Saiki to metal goddes...lol
Not seeing the big deal, to be completely honest....
They're a rock band in Maid outfits. That's it.
There is absolutely *nothing* special about them musically whatsoever.
Nope strongly disagree here :v
