@@klaymor73 The main reason i haven't listened to them yet is that i heard only good things about them and i don't want to end up "betraying" Band-Maid. Yes, i am painfully aware how silly that is
No band has made me happier than Band-Maid. Of all the gifts they serve to their fans, the best is the pure joy I feel when I see and hear them play their incredible, awesome music. Life-affirming progressive hard rock. Amazing!!
When saiki the lead singer meets up with the bassist on stage neither is wearing shoes. Misa never wears shoes thus the name "the barefoot assassin". The myth which I believed was that the song before she lost her shoe crowd surfing. Apparently she took off her heals to go out into the crowd. She puts them back on during the solo by kanami. But they were just having a ball on stage
It's the sign of a great band when people get inspired to pick up an instrument or start singing, I'm too old for that, I'll just stick to the Ukulele. I don't know why, but Band Maid inspired me in another way and that was to revisit bands that I saw and listened to in the late 60's and early 70's that I haven't listened to for probably 40 years and I'm glad I did. The passage of time just simply made me forget that there were so many great bands back in the day and they are now back in my life. Good luck with the Bass.
There are many unique aspects to Real Existence that sets it apart from many rock songs: the starts and stops, Miku's little breakout vocal line, Akane's double tempo gallop, and Kamani's solo. I mean, who would ever put that kind of solo in a rock song? But it works... just like all of the plot-twists, complex density, and genre-merging they employ on most of their material. Thx, J-Slap!
There was a band that had held the spot of #1 band of all time (for me) for five decades. I started listing to Band Maid in 2016; really got into them in 2017; they became my all-time favorite band in early 2019. I've never missed a U.S. Band Maid tour. C'mon American radio, play these ladies!
I love the way they make you smile as soon as they start playing and you keep smiling til the end. They have that effect on me too. But then they are THE best Rock band in the galaxy. And even better live. Have to recommend FREEDOM from the same gig as your Domination and Play reactions, as you'll get to see the world's happiest drummer banging out a superb solo th-cam.com/video/FHpuEqMAcDg/w-d-xo.html .
I can't believe it!! You did not explain the reason why Saiki was on bare foot like Misa in the first part of this performance and how Saiki got her shoes back afterwards. Is it premature to tell the story to her ? 😄 I told that story to my friend as if I had discovered it (without telling it was information from a gentlemen in Wales)
Band Maid = best antidote to a blue mood going. I live in Oz so I've been devouring footage of BM from the recent US tour and how they have become even more epic is mind boggling. This band musically forearm smashes like a seasoned cage fighter and at the same time melts your heart, un farking believable. Loved the smile BM put on your face, Viva the Maids peace and love Po 👍🎼🥁🎤🎸🍻
Play was the first song I heard (the Line Cube Shibuya concert) and I was instantly hooked. They are 5 incredibly talented and strong women. Kanami (lead guitar) is a genius and she also has almost 2 personalities. When she is on stage playing she exudes confidence and is a warrior. If you’ve seen any interviews with her or the band she is quiet, soft spoken and seems introverted.
Please... the acoustic version of Sayonakidori. Miku-chan shines as the lead singer but also MISA-san's bass cuts through amazingly in this performance.
They were the opening act for Gun N Roses at Saitama Super Arena about two weeks ago, and they closed their set with this one*. It's impressive they chose a song they didn't write (Miwa Sasaki and Koji Goto wrote it), on their second mini-album (for an indie label, Gump Records), and their second music video (on TH-cam, at least, in 2015). Even their beginning efforts had real quality. This video is from a concert a few years later (2018) at Zepp Tokyo. *The song just before this one was "Daydreaming". You should watch the Daydreaming MV next.
I hope you can find a bass soon. If you don't want to spend too much money, check the pawn shops, yard/garage/estate sales, and/or web sites like reverb. Whatever you get, you should try to find a good luthier (someone who repairs and maintains guitars, and chose someone who knows bass guitars) and have them check it out and set it up for you - they will adjust the up-bow of the neck, the string height, the intonation, and the pickups. An instrument that isn't set up well can be frustrating to play, and learning a new instrument is frustrating enough on it's own. I've heard it said "Oh, women can't play bass, the scale's too long" - except Tina Weymouth, Kim Gordon, Kim Deal, Paz Lenchantin, Melissa Auf der Maur, Tal Wilkenfeld ... I can go on (Carole Kaye back in the '60s, Esperanza Spalding over in Jazz). In Japan currently you have F Chopper Koga of Gacharic Spin and Haraguchi-san of Nemophila, and MISA from Band-Maid, of course. Anyone can play bass if they put their mind to it. It's a fantastic instrument that has a fundamental role in rock and metal; every good band has good bass and drums.
On the hunt for a bass, mh? For some additional inspiration (if needed after watching MISA) look up FAMI, cover of Alien Alien. This young lady is the new bassist for Lovebites.
They are awesome best show I have ever been to theses ladies are something else live I'm still having with draws after seeing them on there us tour 2022
Yes Freedom. Akane does extended drum solo, which magically morphs into a guitar solo from Kanami and then a breakdown with bass chords from Misa. The are just magic all of these girls. Miku sings a verse too. The surprise are non-stop !
Good reacts again beauty! Number 5 in my BM top 10. Simply and absolutely amazing performance! You definitely have to see Freedom live! Akane's (drummer) performance is on another level. See you at the next, Megitsune 🤟🏻🦊🔥🇯🇵

Hi JyngerSlaps.. Another cool reaction..So many more band maid songs to listen to... Take a look at Hagane, with their song Super villan.. Another all female Japanese metal band that Slapz...
I never heard of these guys before the one guitar player looks like the girl from Babymetal but i'm not sure if it's her. They are super catchy and they do some killer guitar solo's. Awesome video!
I have a German band you should check out called Null Positiv and the song list Hass (Official Video) Kollaps (Official Video) Wo Rauch ist, ist auch Feuer (Official Video) (my favorite) Koma (Official Video)
Top 5 cutest things seen this year: 1. This woman. 2-5 TBA. But no, for real, just saw your videos about Nightwish. Love it. You should do some other finnis melodic bands, like Children Of bodom, Mors Principium est, Battlebeast etc. Cheers from the North.
Have notice all three Japanese female bands are preforming live and they sound better most bands in the studio. They are technical masters are their art. Thanks for your reaction. You only hit the ice burg of female metal and hard bands from Japan.
あなたに限らず、英語の語彙では誉め言葉のバリエーションが少なくて、素晴らしい感動を表現しきれていない感じがするね。う～ん！！残念！！Not only you, but I get the feeling that there are not enough variations of compliments in the English vocabulary to express the wonderful emotion. Hmmm! That's a shame!
I dont care what the people say... Band-Maid is the best band in the world.
I fact checked this: it's correct!
@@D4REK4 I double checked to make sure no-one was lying...And I concur.🤘🤪🤘
Yes, they are!
A few years ago I would agree with your statement, since I've discovered Lovebites I must disagree now . 🤗 But Band-Miad are freakin awesome too.

Damn Japan has some rockin' female bands. Great reaction. Would love to hear you play bass one day.

Hearing this live is on another level
Great reaction and these ladies know what the world needs now, more Band-Maid. Since I discovered them, I can't go one day without listening to them.
Can't go wrong with a B-M song! All these Japanese bands make me want to learn an instrument! 😃 Eagerly awaiting your next Lovebites reaction!🤘🐺

Always smile when I see Saiki barefoot in the first half of the song. Later she got her heels back, she lost before in the crowd ( Freedom )
Misa¡ Misa¡ Misa¡...SHE IS THE BEST...try to find "Don´t you tell me" Live version...
Great reaction and you are awesome 😇😇
@1:55 MISA was interacting with Saiki because Saiki had lost her shoes and as you know MISA never wears shoes so they were joking about it.
Take a look at Onset live…..Kanami does all the solos by tapping. Just incredible
They currently touring the US
Siki is my favorite vocalist in the world
Next year will be their tenth anniversary.
OK, waiting to see the new base... Misa would inspire anyone to play base... Maybe an instrumental next time.. Try the song "Onset" Live next.
Great reaction 🤘next is Daydreaming is a beautiful Masterpiece 🤘
I'm wolfpack all the way 🤘 although this band is really good as well
Hi JyngerSlaps.. Another cool reaction..So many more band maid songs to listen to...
Take a look at Hagane, with their song Super villan.. Another all female Japanese metal band that Slapz...
2 more I love a lot: "Thrill" (music video version) and "freedom".
I never heard of these guys before the one guitar player looks like the girl from Babymetal but i'm not sure if it's her. They are super catchy and they do some killer guitar solo's. Awesome video!
いつも楽しく拝見してます🇯🇵
mincho is incredible in this (kanamimincho mincho)
I need a collab between Band-Maid and Dreamcatcher
Hohohoho mind my words, once you enter the Japanese Rock & Metal world you'll be unable to step out. Kampai!!
A force of nature on the stage. Great job, great reaction!
I have a German band you should check out called Null Positiv and the song list
Hass (Official Video)
Kollaps (Official Video)
Wo Rauch ist, ist auch Feuer (Official Video) (my favorite)
Koma (Official Video)
Daydreaming please please please
Thank you! It’s on my list 😊🤘🏻🤘🏻
Heck i'd sing it to you myself for $2.50 but i must admit i can't hit the high notes.😏
@@GaryHolloway-810 There's a way to fix that high problem you have, probably.
Don’t miss this Sunday :)
You could try to find one of those double necks like Marko has, bass AND guitar! That would be supercool!
Lol yes that would be super sweet! Let me master the acoustic first🤣🤣
@@JyngerSlapz Okay, first things first!
but SUPER HEAVY weight wise

MISA MISA MISA!!!!!
👍👍 next 〜 asterism ・dawn
