Shambles was written by the Ladies specifically for the Netflix Anime "Kengan Ashura", for it's season 2 outro. And once again the Ladies show that they can rock HARD!!. And MISA seems to hang out on the "B" string of her bass for most of the song. The Ladies of Band-Maid have carved out an area in Rock and Roll that is theirs and theirs alone. No one else has their sound, image or unique style. And for that I am extremely grateful. Band-Maid doesn't need harsh vocals, though some may like them, their music isn't written to be harsh. Like you said, Saiki's vocals are immaculate. Plus she has had to have surgery on her vocal cords in the past, so I doubt she would want to risk damaging her voice with harsh vocals.
Once upon a time, the finest band in the world today -- Band Maid -- was born (thanks to the vision and passion of Miku Kobato). From the beginning (2013), the lead guitarist was the ever-superb Kanami Tono. When it was ultimately determined that the band would benefit from the fuller sound made possible by a rhythm guitarist, Miku was conscripted for the role. At first, Miku had no idea how to play a guitar. Fortunately, she was an apt pupil. Even more fortunately, she had a marvelous teacher who was usually at her side -- Kanami. Miku's abilities on the rhythm guitar advanced more quickly than anyone could have hoped for. She was now the respected rhythm guitarist/secondary lead singer/background and special applications singer/chief lyricist/founder/head cheerleader and PR person of Band Maid. Ultimately her playing got to the point where she could do some short leads (including on-stage). Addendum 1: It won't be long before she can attempt longer, more complex leads...but Kanami's job will always be secure. Addendum 2: If the band is a true metal band (e.g. Nemophila, Hanabie), I'm fine with harsh vocals. If the band is a melodic metal band (e.g. Lovebites) or a "hard rock band" [uh, sort of] (e.g. Band Maid), uh-uh. Saiki is properly Queen for Life. Since I've seen Band Maid four times, Nemophila twice, and am holding tickets for Passcode and Hanabie), I'm basing my comments on CDs, DVDs, Blu-rays, live streams, You Tube and live shows that I have attended/will shortly attend).
Although Miku does play some lead guitar parts she mainly plays rhythm guitar & sings lead & backing vocals. It's Kanami you were looking for to save you from a Shambles of a mix-up. Oops too late.😏
Thanks for clearing up things clearly that are clear for those who see things clearly but not as clear as those of us who can't see as clear as things clearly should... be... cle... oh, never mind! 😖
Another Maid banger! You can feel the🔥come through the screen. "Shambles" ain't no sham! Just watch it grow on you like they always do! Thanks Band-Maid... and thx, ChilCon!
Hey, Tom, there were 6 pro cameras filming at Lollapalooza so what are the odds that cameras at any given time were filming each maid during their set? I know Hulu broadcast it live & i don't know the legal issues but what if B-M wanted to release & Blu-ray/DvD of their set. Could they do a joint release with Hulu cos with post editing they'd be able to have the right camera footage on the right Maid during solos etc?
@@GaryHolloway-810 Yeah, the editing was way off on their pro footage. They showed Miku and Akane during Kanami's solo, for example. But I don't see why all parties couldn't make a deal.

"Neh-mo-fee-la," as SAKI and MAYU say here -- th-cam.com/video/Vol5Oltv4dY/w-d-xo.html There is no point in comparing BAND-MAID and NEMOPHILA, or SAIKI and MAYU. Each band and each vocalist occupy quite different spaces. As do LOVEBITES, UNLUCKY MORPHEUS, GACHARIC SPIN, TRIDENT, etc.
@@ChiliConCarnage Hmmm… I don’t speak Greek, but when I listen to Google Translate’s Greek pronunciation of Nemophila, it sure sounds like “Neh-mo-fee-la.”
I love harsh vocals when they are appropriately applied. Band Maid would not be a "proper application" of such vocals (most bands would not be). Saiki is Queen -- deservedly.

The guitar is not Miku, it's Kanami. While Miku has quite the hero's journey with guitar, Mincho (Kanami) is "the" guitar player (Goddess).

Nemophila is a Greek word. If it was a Japanese word I'd pronounce it the Japanese way.

The harsher/screaming/gutterel vocal style is NOT for me!
Same for me, no shade to those that enjoy it though. You enjoy what you enjoy. Just makes Band Maid kinda perfect for my ears.
Me too
Agreed - It's all subjective! @@evilducks3710

It's disrespectful to use Miku's presumed real name. Publicly she goes by Miku Kobato and that should be respected by all of us
