TH-cam and Patreon both take percentages of earnings from videos (in TH-cam's case, I'll make around 5-10% of what any given video makes, the rest goes to supporting the Label who owns the copywrite and to supporting the platform, so this is a helpful way to help me keep on making videos.

THAT look...when new Maidiacs are born!
"No thinking, just feeling." Band-Maid was created by Miku Kobato (rhythm guitarist/main lyricist/secondary vocalist) with the term "Gap" in mind. The idea of 5 women in cute maid outfits that come out and play hard, heavy, cool music. The shock of seeing them and then hearing them is what the "Gap" is. Where your expectations totally destroyed. They have worked hard for quite some time to become one of, if not the best rock bands in the world. They have a massively great discography filled with all types of rock music, all equally well written, played, arranged and sung. Of course I am biased, but, I believe them to be the best writers and arrangers today. You'll get a whole lot of recommendations, because they have a whole lot of great songs. Enjoy the journey!
We fall into the gap and it's awesome!!
Watching people experience Band-Maid for the first time. My new favorite past-time. DICE, BLOOMING, BUBBLE, REAL EXISTENCE, CHOOSE ME, DON'T YOU TELL ME, etc etc etc.
They often gather around the drum Akane during the performance. They are playing "staring contest" with Akane who cannot move. It's a proof of their good friendship. In "Freedom", you can see Akane's funny face trying to make members laugh and the lead vocalist Saiki and bass Misa laughing.
It’s a crime the camera didn’t show their faces. Those girls make some of the most epically silly faces that I don’t see how it’s possible they are able to not miss a beat or mess up!
It’s called Hengao. The Japanese art of silly faces.
They’re basically trying to crack each other up during the most difficult sections.
Adorable
I grew up with the British Invasion of the 1960s. Several years ago I discovered Band Maid. They are truly the Beatles of the 2000s and they always put a smile in my heart.
This song was number 22 out of 23 at this concert, Play was number 21 at this concert and should be your next Band-Maid song.
First time listening to Band-MAID for me, as well. I look forward to discovering them further with you.
Welcome to the amazing world of Band Maid.
I was sleeping on them, but discovered them some months ago, they are awesome! And check out The Warning from Mexico, they are really really good as well, check out their song “ Queen of the Murder Scene “live at Lunario.
Welcome to the happy pigeons club! Po!
FYI, this was song #22 out of a 23 song concert....
And the concept of the maid outfits was done on purpose. It was intended to create "The Gap", the mental dissonance between what you see and expect to hear, and what you actually hear. It makes your first time experiencing them that much more memorable.
Great to see you two went beyond the maid outfits and actually put the music first. And it was great you referred to their look as an aesthetic rather than a gimmick.
New to me. I guess we are all on a journey tonight.
Welcome to the BAND-MAID army! Your flight starts... now!
Girls rock hard!! Why can’t girls wear costumes? The men in KISS get to wear costumes. The costumes do not diminish or take away their work.
I agree. Along with being impressive, Band-Maid is *_fun_* (even though Miku's lyrics can be quite serious). The costumes just add another fun element, especially in contrast to the 'Maids' aggressiveness and intensity.
FROM JAPAN Thank you for Reaction Band-Maid. They are hard rock band and are now considered by fans to be one of the best hard rock bands in the world. They usually perform 23 songs and 2 hours live. They were formed in Japan in 2013 by side guitarist Miku Kobato. Kobato had experience working at a maid cafe in Akihabara Tokyo and had the idea of playing hard rock in a maid costume. That's why the band was named Band-Maid. "Thrill" was their first music video in 2014, played 2 million times in two weeks and saved them from breaking up. At that time they were just around 20-23 years old. And then they have been doing LIVE overseas and increasing their fans. Now they are writing, composing and arranging all the songs. 30 songs have been released on their official TH-cam, all of which are killer songs.
They will release a new song "Different" on December 2nd and a full album "Unseen World" in January 20 next year.
It was announced that the new song "Different" will be the theme song for the animation "Log Horizon 3rd season Round Table Collapse" that start in January 13 next year on NHK E-TV (educational broadcast) Japan.
Official TH-cam th-cam.com/users/BANDMAIDvideos?view=0&sort=dd&shelf_id=2126
For hard rock, "Secret my lips," "Rinne,"
"DICE."
"PLAY." and
"Onset."
For ballads, "Wonderland ," "Endless story ,"and "Daydreaming"
For a fun live, "FREEDOM(Live) ," "CROSS", and "Choose me"
Japanese style "Secret maiko lips" and "GION-CHO"
My most favorite songs right now are the "Puzzle" band version and the acoustic version.
Next, their latest Live work "PLAY" 2020 2.14 Sibuya Tokyo Live would be good.
For studio music videos, "DICE" is a good choice. (^^♪

Never having heard Band Maid before, I was on the edge my seat for fear that the lyrics would turn out to be all "I'm in love but I need to get his attention hello hello hello oh wait he just smiled at me! Happy Day! Hello hello hello! Do I need my own life now? No no no his domination is enough to keep me happy!" Wow, I feel so much better now!
Interesting peep in your mind, my future wife? Don't fight what you want. :-)
Since I'm a big Rush and Band-Maid fan, and I know you like Rush, I'll point out a couple of reasons I love them both. Pay attention to the work that goes into crafting their songs. There are a lot of details that reward the careful listener. The second verse is going to almost always be different than the first, and almost always better (The song builds as it progresses). They don't copy/paste sections.
At it's core it's rock, but there are elements of many styles of music incorporated. I call them the Queens of Contrast. The look vs. style is obvious, but there is very stark contrast within many of the songs. Moratorium is a good example of this. It goes from grungy metal to poppy chorus w/ clean guitar in the blink of an eye. People love to categorize, but similar to Rush, it's really impossible to put them into a single category accurately. They are blazing their own path.
Facts!!!!!!
Love your comments and welcome to Band-Mid rabbit hole. Next recommendation will be either Blooming or Dice.
I love Band Maid. The whole band and maid costumes were Miku's (rhythm guitar) idea. She used to work in a Maid cafe in Japan and thought it would be cool to dress as maids and play a type of music you wouldn't expect them to play. They call that "The Gap". They put on a great show. Was lucky enough to catch them in concert in NYC last year.
When asked what the goal was for Band-Maid, Miku’s answer was, ‘world domination’. And they are well on their way. Hope you continue on this Band-Maid journey. You will not be disappointed. New subscriber.
Welcome aboard!
First, Band Maid is the best rock band on the planet at the moment! Second, it's interesting to me that back in the day, yes I'm dating myself, when The Runaways and Suzie Quatro toured Japan, the Japanese culture was not used to female performers, now there a a lot of good all female or female fronted bands there. Quite a shift for the good! I think good music transcends language and Band Maid is a great example of that!
I’m a huge fan! They are gaining a ton of North American fans like me in their 50s just waiting for a group like this. #GirlsRock!!
BAND-MAID, best live rock band out today. They combine rock, metal, punk, pop, jazz and progressive genres to create their own sound. Suggest more live videos - Real Existence, Play, Freedom, Choose Me, Onset etc etc and MV's Rinne, Blooming, Alone, Day Dreaming etc etc etc. All their videos are fantastic
Band Maid is the best band to come around in decades, hands down! The more you explore their catalog the more you will be impressed with their musical brilliance. About a month from now you will be kicking yourself for not knowing about them earlier.
New single "Different" is out on 12/2/20 and new album "Unseen World" on 1/20/21.
Having watched your RUSH reactions I knew once you gave them a chance they would blow you away. 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
Next song should be "Wonderland" so you can see the versatility.
Id definitely say Misu could teach Geddy Lee a few things haha
These guys seem like big into the bursting energy. I usually recommend heavier stuff early into the journey, though Wonderland is a personal favorite.
@@Running-withscissors MISA is an awesome player, but to say she could teach Geddy anything about the bass is utterly ridiculous
@@snowdog5895 There's a reason why I feel that way. I saw Rush at the Hammersmith Odeon in the 80s. OUTSTANDING! But, bands like Thin Lizzy and UFO actually were better concerts. Not necessarily technically, but LIVE they really exploded, and what BAND-MAID does. Rush sounded exactly like their albums. Impressive and technically mind blowing, but lacked any kind of spontaneity. Not being ridiculous, just my experience and take away. :)
It’s not that they need the maid outfits, they like the outfits. They think of them as their battle armor. Miku, rhythm guitarist/vocalist/lyricist, founded the band based on her own years of waitressing in maid cafes singing songs to people’s food! So she liked the idea of this cuteness juxtaposed with the heavy
music.💪🏻🤘🏻
Hi from a locked-down UK.
Can't wait til all this covid stuff is over and these girls come back on tour. Best feel-good rock around today and we all need something to feel good about at the moment.😁
First time for me. Mind blown. Thanks guys and thanks to whoever requested this instant classic. Lots of great Japanese bands.
Welcome to the BAND-MAID community. You have only peeked in the door ..... what are you waiting for? Come on! lol
@@Running-withscissors waiting ? I’m already there. 😊 great Music !
Gold seal of talent.Thats Band Maid .
I still love their clothing and my daughter stated that I liked them because they looked sexy in their outfits., I would love them if they dressed in mariachi outfits and wore sombreros. They are simply amazing. This reminds me of when I discovered Led Zeppelin or the Beatles when I was a kid. Their musicianship and song writing is stellar but their joy and fun is beautiful is the most appealing thing about them. I am not going to lie they are easy for my eyes to look at.
Sexy costumes? LOL I'd say very prim and proper, especially the new ones, except Saiki of course, she would be sexy in a potato sack.
@@glenkelley6799 honestly, for me if any beautiful lady dressed in a potato sack, add garters,stocking,high heel give them a guitar, behind a microphone or drum kit will look sexy. Add supreme musical talent, we're are talking goddesses.
Welcome to the Band Maid WORMHOLE - it leads to another sonic dimension... glad you enjoyed this. There’s plenty plenty plenty more. Check out Real Existence (live), Dice (MV) and ONSET (live instrumental) next!
Best band i discovered the last 15-20 years... I wasn´t into an band like this since i discovered Pendulum in around 2000-2002 (totally different kind of music). I don´t like metal so much, for me it´s too chaotic and heavy... Nightwish f.e. is too dramatic, doesn´t mean it´s bad, it´s great, just not my "jam". Band-Maid is playing this rockstyle, with so much influences from jazz, blues, pop, rock, metal, punk, they don´t care about genres, it´s so refreshing and damn good! You should check out more and you can choose ANY song, it doesn´t matter, they have almost 100 songs and there is no bad Band-Maid song. If you also consider they are writing the songs on their own, the lyrics, they are a bunch of friends and having so much fun and LOVE their fans, that´s the cherry on this yummy icecake names Band-Maid. Greetings from Germany, i am happy you enjoyed the ladies and stay healthy!
Welcome aboard, Daniel & Daniel's dad... I mean Dethstrok8. You guys are embarking on (along with many others - over 90 million YT views!) an awesome hard-rock journey with 5 incredible women. Here's my intro blurb for those who may be new to Band-Maid:
BAND-MAID’s songs and sound beat with the heart and soul of all rockers. But you’ll also hear heavy influences of Punk, Metal and Pop, with nice touches of Blues, Funk and Grunge. Sometimes they use multiple genres within the same song. Their Composition, Execution, Consistency (nearly 100 songs with their latest album, “Conqueror”, and a new drop coming Jan. ‘21), Uniqueness, Charisma, Charm and, oh yeah, Cuteness factor, position them as becoming the hard rock Beatles of our time! In other words, they’re destine for mega-stardom. Each member's personalities are super interesting and their musicianship among the best. Their writing, arrangements and overall sound, especially guitar tones and drums, are kick-ass! Having seen them LIVE, I can honestly say their performance, sound, stage appearance, and band synergy is off the rails spectacular.
Band-Maid is the only band in decades where I love nearly EVERY song they’ve done. I have over 50 favorites! "Thrill" (2014) is a great place to start: th-cam.com/video/Uds7g3M-4lQ/w-d-xo.html Their later songs drive even more - Rinne, Blooming, Moratorium, Domination, Clang, Dice, Spirit, Turn Me On, Fate, Play, Hide-And-Seek, Secret My Lips, Puzzle, Glory, Choose Me, I Can’t Live Without You, and on and on. But don’t miss out on their powerful, beautifully written, mid-tempo songs like Daydreaming, Anemone, Endless Story, PAGE, Marage and Smile... or more punky like Don’t Let Me Down and Screaming… or funky like Bubble… or bluesy like The Dragon Cries… or poppy like Start Over… or a bit jazzy like Wonderland… or cultural like the Band-Maiko series… or instrumentals like Onset, Without Holding Back and Going Nuts! And many are represented with over 30 well produced music videos. th-cam.com/users/BANDMAID
Most performances should be experienced from their LIVE concerts such as Tokyo's LINE CUBE SHIBUYA on February 14th (“Domination” th-cam.com/video/QbyQCJn6rYg/w-d-xo.html), ZEPP 2018, Shinkiba Studio Coast 2017 and some of the better 2019 tour Fan vids. Here’s three of what it’s like to see Band-Maid LIVE at super intimate venues. The first taken by Vladimir Chupin in Hamburg: th-cam.com/video/__1th7ctgMo/w-d-xo.html, the second taken by JT Dayo in LA: th-cam.com/video/4uIYBkAybCI/w-d-xo.html, and third, JOSER8845 in LA: th-cam.com/video/usWZvlGGDSs/w-d-xo.html. If you like Band-Maid, make sure to support them by purchasing some concert tickets, CD, DVD/BD & Merch, etc. bandmaid.tokyo
Like most Band-Maid songs, I like them from the get-go but really start to appreciate them after more hearings and seeing their LIVE videos. I'll go back and see an older song like YOLO, Order, Shake That, Freezer, Before Yesterday, Real Existence, Non Fiction Days and Alone, etc. and realize there's no band that can consistently construct and play like Band-Maid. For fun, check out an awesome, little known "Mega Band-Maid Mix" by DJ Ray of some of their earlier stuff: facebook.com/djrayboston/videos/1004709499579009
Band-Maid members are: (Ages are best est.).
Saiki Atsumi (Sy-i-Key or Psyche) “Ice Queen" - Lead vocals, arrangements, melodies and High Priestess mediator between the Gods (Band Members) and the masters and princesses (Fans). At 26 and the youngest, “Sensei” (Leader) as Miku calls her, has the last word on many musical decisions. High-heels or sneakers, Sai-chan’s smile melts away the persona. Her charisma, performance and voice focus the experience.
Miku Kobato (Me-Ku) "Small Pigeon" - Rhythm guitar, vocals, lyricist, 29 years old. “Koba”, as Saiki calls her, is the Band founder and a firecracker MC & PR SpokesPigeon, po! Her “Magic Spell Time” charm and energy ignite the room. Kurrupo! No, no, no… KURRUPO!!
Kanami Tono (Ka-Naw-Me) “Princess” - Lead guitar, keyboards, 29 years old, is a prolific writer of most Band-Maid material. Kanami (translates “Song Wave”) is a possessed riff-slayer who’s so damn adorable it hurts. The only thing you want from Mincho is more!
Akane Hirose (A-Ka-Nay) "Gorilla" - Drums, 29 years old, band energizer & co-clown with MISA. Achi’s talents include massive consumption of noodles and bananas, of course, (even during performance!) while revolutionizing rock drumming with relentless drive, dynamics and the kick. This “DrumRilla” is the Party!
MISA (Me-Sa) "Assassin" - Bass, 28 years old. A sullen, barefoot, dark spirit driving her 5-string bottom-end to hell and back, off-stage MISA is the band’s goofball ballerina. The Mysterious One literally kills it… every note.. uniting Band-Maid’s world-class rhythm section. A slug of JB, a slight grin, and let the slappin’ begin… MISA! MISA! MISA!
"Freedom" live next. To be honest any of their live shows are awesome!
"Onset" will melt your face! Plus, it's an instrumental. (So, you don't have to worry about lyric interpretation.)
I've read many comments to 'get over' the maid outfits. It worked. Pure fire! 🔥
I'm hooked.
💜💫✌🏼🎵
Congratulations you have landed on the best active Hard Rock Band in the world. The are all Top-Notch Musicians and damn good songwriters. They incorporate the Best elements if Metal, Hard Rock, Funk, Punk and Pop. Their extensive catalog draws from those element to form a unique sound of their own. I have yet to hear a track that you can call subpar. My personal favorite tracks are: Puzzle (live), Moritorium (Live), Play (live), Real Existence (live/MV), Secret My Lips (live/MV), Renne (MV), Dice (MV), Alone (MV), Turn Me On (Live) better stop there otherwise I will list all if them.
I saw these ladies in Europe in 3 concerts, not one, 3, do you understand,
in 2019.
After the first concert, I followed them for a week for half of Europe.
I am an old music lover of all genres and in 45 years of concerts, I have seen all the biggest bands from the 70s to today.
And I can tell you these Band-Maid in concert rock crazy, straighten your body hair for 2 hours.
With the Band-Maid you first listen to the CD then go to the concert and they kill you by playing even better in concert and you remain as if petrified wrapped in this perfect sound thunderstorm that they know how to create, the impressive sound quality at the concert never heard such a thing, you hear every little detail of everything even though it's all really impressive super high power.
Saiki the singer can literally melt you by going from moments of elegance and sweetness to moments of a true dark queen, she masters the stage as I have not seen for decades.
Akane the drummer surprises you with unthinkable drum lines, and keeps laughing and smiling for two hours as he plays like there's no tomorrow, and looks as happy as a little girl who enjoys smashing everything, and Akane can literally smash you.
for the other components Miku second voice and rhythm guitar, Misa on bass, and Kanami's spectacular lead guitar I am writing to you when you make the next video on Band-Maid so you are now inside and you have no more escape. Hi
My dad is a 52-53 year old man who was born on the island of Puerto Rico, and he has been obsessing over this band for months. I never really checked them out, but saw this Vid cme up and watched it. They are seriously amazing musicians and i can see every bit of why he's so i to their music (and they're beautiful to see on stage), and seeing you react with your dad just makes this even better. Thank you man, and thank your dad for being a part of this. And of course thank these ladies for their art.
Much love from Rhode Island.
MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Barefoot Bass assassin , Great reaction , other songs to check out , Play , Freedom , there first video Thrill , Dice , Rinnie , live is best they put in more solos live .
The use of maid costumes is the create the "Gap". Meaning the difference between what you are seeing "demure maids" vs what you are hearing Hard Rock. The "Gap" is very popular with Japanese bands. Prior to the band all of the members were professional session/backing musicians/singers. MISA (bass), Akane (drums) and Kanami (lead guitar) were taking piano lessons at 4yo, not uncommon in Japan. Best Rock Band in the world right now. US tour last year was 5 sell-outs in NYC, Dallas and LA. They have toured in Europe regularly for several years.
Remember "No matter how good you think you play a musical instrument, there is a Japanese Lady who plays it better than you." (stolen)
As to Japanese bands you still have Babymetal, Lovebites, Aldious, Mary's Blood, and the greatest metal band you never heard of XJapan (now disbanded). Have fun!!
Best Hard Rock Band over the world today. Pick whichever random song you want, you cannot go wrong and I´m sure you will be amazed.
Thank you for the BAND-MAID.
Enjoy.
They will not disappoint.
With BAND MAID, what you see is what you get! 5 talented musician's who LOVE what they do and like to have fun doing it. They were making funny faces at Akane the drummer and she was probably making them back! If Akane isn't smiling I worry the earth's magnetic pole may be about to flip!
Not heard of this band before but must say brilliant from start to finish!
Great reaction guys. This is the best band to come along in some time. I've become a total Maidiac!
For another great international band, check out The Warning (3 teen sisters from Mexico who rock and sing in English except one or two songs).
I’m with the Warning as well ! both bands rock! And this is coming from a Metalhead! Cheers
Cool technician Right on! It's refreshing to find great new bands. Girls around the globe are breathing life into rock music!
Congrats on discovering the best rock band on the planet. Found these ladies early this year and I've listened to nothing else since. I haven't seen a band in a long time approach the talent, chemistry and showmanship these young ladies possess. They formed the band on their own, compose their songs themselves since 2016 and play everything with smiles on their faces like they're just 5 best friends having fun. You really can't go wrong with whatever you choose next but like others have said usually you want to go live over MV as they have extended intros and solos for some live versions. The MVs to watch over the live imo are "Dice" and "Rinne" and maybe "Blooming" as it's such a beautifully filmed MV.
Welcome to the world of Band Maid! You will become a MAIDIAC! Resistance is Futile!
You will learn soon enough that these ladies ROCK!
They are a very talented group. They are all well trained in various instruments.
As for the costumes - Angus Young wore a school boy uniform his entire career with AC/DC. The costume does not have to be in line with the song or the bands sound. The fact that they can play as well as this and still be having fun doing it and not have to resort to Lingerie to sell the sex side of their femininity.
Miku refers to the costumes as "the GAP" the costumes are there to throw off the first time viewers like all of us were at one point.
Here is a rig run down of their equipment - they know how to use them too!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
KANAMI TONO - plays PRS Custom 24 - Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier.
Miku Kobato - plays Zemaitis C24MF - EVH Amps
Misa - plays Black Cloud "Smoker" and Privat Reserve (SG Style) bass - Orange Amps
Akane Hirose - Plays TAMA drums with Zildjian Cymbals
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There will be many many suggestions for the next song. There will NOT be a bad choice.
Later if you are only into videos - try FREEZER - no video but listen to the song!
LOL!!! Y'all just opened the door to Pandora's Pigeonhole. Enjoy the ride. Just pick a song, any song, they're all great! The live videos especially! Great reaction. 🤘🤘🤘
Great reaction and review ! !
Next "Freedom" live or" Dice" MV
These are great performances！！
We all being there with you. Welcome to the addiction that is Band-Maid. You will never go wrong with them.
Suggestion... Real Existence (LIVE)
Great great reaction....please react...PLAY.....FREEDOM...LIVE 2020 and ONSET LIVE IN TOKIO....
Nice reaction! Their songs are so approachable, and compositions so smart. Who knew hard rock could be happy? Jimmy Page loves Akane, the drummer.
Loved it guys! Welcome to the maidiacs. These ladies deserve to be the biggest thing in the world. You've seen their musical talent, and the more of their music that you hear, the more you'll find out that not only are they great players, they are absolutely superb song-writers and arrangers. Song after song is just fantastic.
It is so great to see other people loving Band Maid. They are incredible and their live versions are always better than the recorded. If you want some harder music try Rinne live or Real Existence live. If you want an epic drum solo try Freedom live. IF you want an instrumental do Onset live. Dig in boys.
Thanks! That was fun! To me, the most special thing about Band-MAID is that they are succeeding (relatively) in spreading cheer while doing what they love and having so much fun. They are not the most technically brilliant band although they are no slouches. They don't really pander to certain fans or try to become more popular by trying to do more accessible or popular music, but they are writing and performing what they love and appreciating that there are fans that like it too. And their music happens to be fantastic. They are also 5 really quirky and adorable dorks when you get to learn more about them. It just won't work without any of the 5 members present.
Yaaaassss. I've really been looking forward to this. As I'm sure others will talk about, the maid gimmick is specifically used to create a "gap" in your mind between what you're seeing and what you're hearing. They're just absolute musical beasts, so talented on their instruments. Thank you guys for doing this together, it's fun to watch!
Miku's lyrics are difficult to translate, they are pretty sophisticated. If you want to hear their hardest song, do the MV "Rinne". And do their pure instrumental "Onset".
Japan has a lot of all female bands, rock, metal, and punk. And they often have a "look." Japanese bands seem to thrive on audience interaction and they tend to be great live with a high caliber of playing. For classic power & thrash metal, Lovebites would be a great choice, especially since they sing in English. Another great choice is the relatively new Nemophila ( the Latin-Greek genus name of the "baby blue eyes" garden flower). Their original material is mostly in Japanese but they have done some great of covers of Iron Maiden, Linkin Park, Helloween, AC/DC, and Kiss where they do sing in English. These are studio lives.
That was FIRE! 🔥
"Onset" gave me chills!
th-cam.com/video/mVrN-j_Uc0U/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for these suggestions.
Welcome to Band-Maid. You won’t regret it.
They have 100 songs including Band Maiko. Maybe 80-85 of their songs are absolutely amazing.
Band Maid is simply one of the best hard rock bands !
They are not the only good band from Japan. I think Japanese rock and metal bands will dominate the rock business this decade.
Nothing comes from Europe and America anymore.
Definitely one of the best reactions I’ve seen on BAnd MAid. Good for you ! Keep it up guys . I’ll be back ! 👍
MISA!!!! MISA!!! MISA!!!!! Badass Bass Assassin. The best Hard Rock band right now. You pick a good song to be your 1st reaction. Their MV are very good but their Live videos are 10 times better. They have so much fun on stage and with each other. Always high energy from start to finish at every concert. I've seen them twice here in LA and the experience is off the charts. Their Maid outfits and the hard Rock music is the "Gap" that Band-Maid is trying to achieve. Their music reminds me of the Rock I grew up with in the 70's.
B-M 4 Life probably already has given you the 411 on these 5 talented musicians. Check out the Live versions of Play, Onset, Freedom, Don't You Tell Me, Moratorium, Puzzle (both versions) and Real Existence
Agree. x100👍
Glad you did the live version. LOVE this song!!! It can be a bit difficult to translate well between Japanese and English, but it's mostly the music I come for. These ladies are fantastic. I know some people pick on them for what they wear, but come on people...consider Kiss and how out there they looked. These ladies are pretty tame next to that look lol XD. Love that they gave each musician their own solo in this performance ♥
edit: when they all gathered around the drummer, they were making faces at her trying to make her laugh and lose her rhythm. it's a bit of a running joke that she never loses the rhythm for anything, even if she's laughing lol
Thanks for finally checking out Bandmaid ... As diverse as they are, my current favorite bands for the last year and a half have been this band and NIGHTWISH. No doubt you will get suggestions galore about these girls just like the way the NIGHTWISH Army has hovered over you. Besides great music, the one big thing they both have in common is that the live stage is where they have the most impact. I'm sure you'll get more requests for them LIVE! Thanks...👍
wearing “maid costume” is their identity,especially to Miku on the rhythm guitar.
Hey fellas. Great reaction.
I became a Band Maid fan 4-5 months ago. 63 yo. Grew up in the Detroit area on Motown music and my mother's Herb Alpert. Loved them both. Found AM pop, rock, etc. in the 60's. Then discovered FM radio and Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Zeppelin, Yes, ELP, etc. Now I'm a big Joe Satriani fan, as well as Metallica, Lacuna Coil, Jinjer, Slipknot, and so on.
My first BM song was "Thrill". Saw it as a suggestion on a YT comment. I was intrigued. Second, was "Play" from the 2018 Zepp show I think, and I was blown away. My third, and my "holy s**t" moment, was this "Domination" video. I now have their last two CD's, this Shibuya DVD, Just Bring It cd is in the mail, and I'm looking for a "cost effective" source for Brand New Maid. And patiently awaiting their next release due out in January, 2021.
My point here is: their live performances are pretty incredible and I love how much fun they have while doing it. However, there is so much more to discover in their studio recordings. I suggest MV's of "Dice", "Alone", "Blooming", and "Rinne" to start. Kanami (lead guitar}, MISA (bass), and Akane (drums) are all world class musicians and you can hear their individual genius in these recordings. Miku has blossomed into a good rhythm guitarist, and the Saiki/Miku vocals are wonderful.
Oh, and I could give a rats a$$ about the language or maid outfits. I can always look up the translation if I want, same as Rammstein.
You just found my favorite band and no I don't understand either but we feel it and believe every word she sings. There are several songs from this same show on their channel that would be excellent to follow up with. I would say Dice, Blooming and Alone might be better watching the MV version otherwise I recommend the live versions of their songs if you find a professional recording.
Dad's reaction is very good!! from japan.
Great band glad you found them. That look and the then unexpected heavy sound is what Band Maid calls the Gap. The looks and sound should not go together but they do. The outfits are no different then Slipknot, Kiss or literally an untold number of bands around the world. Add to that Japan has a strong tradition of visual kei. By the way Japan is full and I mean full of super talented hard rock and metal bands. Of course Babymetal, Maximum the Hormone, Lovebites, Mary’s Blood, Ninjen Isu, holy crap way too many to list here. Oh and the Band-Maid fans will fill you in on the particulars of this awesome band. EVERY girl here is amazing performers, musicians and just love playing.
Love those father-son reactions. :) This band is fantastic, making some of the best rock music today. Count yourself lucky to have discovered them. They have a large catalog, and the overall quality and sheer number of gems you'll find it in will amaze. I'd recommend Secret My Lips from their TH-cam channel, if you plan to react to another song of theirs - it's a good one to show why this band has developed such a loyal and large fanbase (has nothing to do with their costumes lol).
It's never too late to discover Band-Maid.
Miku, the rhythm guitarist who formed the band, used to work in one of the cafes in Tokyo's maid cafe area. There are a huge number of wannabe bands on Japan, with cutely dressed girls singing and dancing to light poppy songs. She thought it would be interesting to have a group of young women with the same kind of look, but who were an actual band, and played more aggressive music. I discovered them about 18 months ago, and they rapidly became my favourite band. Another all-female Japanese band I've got into lately are The Let's Go's, who are three women who also play music with a similar energy and character, not to mention sense of fun, but in contrast they play raw, stripped back 70s style punk. Try the start of this live performance from them th-cam.com/video/HBB3m-lDmnI/w-d-xo.html If you do the first 3.5 minutes, in true Ramones style, that'll be enough for two songs. Enjoy!
You guy's have just opened up a huge can of worms, welcome to the beautiful world of Japanese Female Rock and Metal!! So many more bands to discover and it will change your whole outlook on music.....Anything live by Band-Maid will blow you away!
They mix in English throughout the song usually the chorus is in English i came across these guys about two years ago and a day hasn't gone by that I haven't listened to them . Luckily you just found them the have a new song being released December 2nd its for the anime log horizon and a new album in January . Miku with red rose worked in a maid Cafe that's how she came up with the concept of the band
"I have no idea what she's saying, but I love it!" TOTALLY AGREE!
You now speak Band Maid. English is not necessary. Try "Freedom" live next.
FREEEEDOMM yesss
With Band-Maid live is usually better than the studio version because they tend to expand on the song.
In the case of Domination the studio version only has the final guitar solo. The live version has a bass solo, lead guitar solo, rhythm guitar showcase, drum solo and then the guitar solo from the studio recording last.
Japanese women in a hard rock band. What's not to like?
And so many of them :)
Try not to think too hard, it may just them telling the world they are coming, boundries consist of culture and language may hinder them but it won't stop any of us from listening to their songs, and they will come no matter what stopping them, they are on their quest for world domination,
I love watching BAND-MAID reaction videos. People getting caught off guard by their talent! These ladies rock! Im glad you enjoyed my favorite band and no your new favorite band! I would recommend checking out more live versions! They are incredible live, even better than their MVs! Just go to their YT channel and start picking videos. With upwards of 100 songs, they actually dont have a bad song! I enjoyed the video, so much fun watching the reaction! I look forward to more!
This song domination is them starting their conquest of world domination! This is off their album world domination.
Back in 2013 this band almost broke up. They had one lost shot with their first MV titled thrill. It happened to go viral and little by little these ladies got more and more freedom to do the songs they want and how they want.
Band-Maid's online full live has been announced. From 16:00 on December 13th to 16:00 on the 16th (Japan time). The new song "Different" will also be performed. bandmaid.tokyo/contents/376042
Full scale live is probably more than 2 hours. The titles of the songs on the new album have also been announced.
Welcome to the world of Band Maid. I am so glad you have finally been able to watch them. This is just the beginning for you. Try Freedom Live, Play Live or MVs Thrill (there first MV) and Real Existence. You can't go wrong and there are so many more. Just follow the Band Maid fan requests. Great reaction. Looking forward to your next Band Maid reaction. Enjoy the journey watching these talented musicians!!!
I liked the message. I liked the song. These ladies rock!
Jimmy Page, who had come to see the Band-Maid live in Japan in November 2016, paid a courtesy visit to the dressing room, impressed by the technique of Akane Hirose on drums. According to her, "He said," It was a wonderful performance, "and thank you for your continued encouragement in my musical life. I was really happy from the bottom of my heart. I'll do my best on the drums for the rest of my life!! ".

The maids are the real deal. More to react to? Rinne, Dice, Choose Me, Alone MV available on their youtube channel. Experiencing their energy and performance skills on stage is a bucket list entry. The two concerts with the best mix in the recordings are from Shinkiba and Zepp Tokyo. The 2020 Feb 14h concert at Shibuya is also good, but the sound includes more of the crowd reaction and is less well balanced than the other two. The Shinkiba and Zepp concerts should really be released as a dvd/blue ray and if there were English subtitles and some English explanation it would surely spread like wildfire. Unfortunately copies of these mind-blowing performances have been deleted from youtube. But if you reach out to the B-M fans, some can surely send you links. There are also copies of some songs on bilibili and other sites. Choose just about anything from these concerts and it is unlikely you will be disappointed. I love The Non Fiction Days, Real Existence, Puzzle, Take Me Higher, Moratorium, Matchless Gum..... They also do some great acoustic songs. About 90% of their catalogue is awesome and the rest good. New single on Dec 2, and new album in Jan 2021.
Bando-Maid for life! /,,/🎌👗🐦🐈
your reactions to band-maid were so good and interesting for me. i recommend other songs by these girls,onset(live),RINNE(mv) and DICE(mv).
Welcome aboard the Band-Maid train. Your journey has just began. You will not be disappointed with any of their other songs. They are the best hard rock group right now bar none.
I don’t think there’s any right order to watch their stuff. Anything on their main TH-cam channel is a safe bet. Lots of already good suggestions of the main ones but there’s sooooo many other ones. I would say save “alone” for a specific time because that song is significant as the first song composed by the band (mostly lead guitar kanami) and got them the green light to continue to compose all their own stuff (domination is one of them). Lyrics wise rhythm guitarist miku was already writing and continues to do so. Also if you wanna go further back “thrill”is their breakout song with most views that if it didn’t blow up, I think they were on the verge of breaking up.
MISA MISA MISA!
uTell 'em Dave...... uTell The World!!
@@johnnylaroux9517 just a gentle reminder lol
Your father gets it. He should feature again on the Band-Maid stuff you do.
Nice reaction. Their extraordinaryness can be understood by listening to the relatively unknown "Turn me on", "Fate", "One and only", etc.
Great review gents. Try "Onset" (live) if you just want to hear and see a totally instrumental piece. "Play" (live) is another great piece to see their talents.
You've just had a small taste of the best Rock band on the planet right now ... maybe even ever.
90 plus songs in their catalog and not a single dud!
I've yet to hear a bad Band Maid song. The uniforms are part of the entire presentation and is important to the whole image they project to the very traditional culture of the Japanese people. In their culture the look shows Japanese girls that you can honor traditions but still be themselves and fully express yourself. All these girls were a part of the whole J-Pop scene but got tired of being told what and how to play. The guitarist came up with the concept and with the drummer put together talents they'd worked with previously and made their music outside the industry machine. The look is what got them attention, it is more than a gimmick. It is a very bold statement to look like that and play like that in their culture.
It's not just a gimmick, it's how the Japanese are. They like themes. It's happy hard rock with some very deep lyrics. Welcome aboard. Band Maid is awesome.
The visual aspect of performance is very important to the Japanese audience. So much so that there are musical sub-genres that place more emphasis on the visual than the music (ie visual kei).
@@armynurseboy - yes, I would call Visual Kei more theatrical. And there is a different mix of musical creativeness and theater for each. Some do have more unique looks and drama with less originality in music, some more of a balance. And almost always some gender-bending involved.
For me, the music of Exist-Trace is so good that the visuals are optional. They have some bizarre get-up, especially Naoto, but that isn't why I'm a fan. I have four of their albums so far, and they are the only group I have bought that many of lately except Band-Maid, who is still my #1.
It never gets old watching people get their minds blown by the incredible ladies of BAND MAID! 🤘🤩🤘
Welcome to the best rock band currently out! So much awesome content to hear! Freedom and Onset should be next, and live is always the way to go with these ladies!
Akane on drums...AKA the Gorilla or the BEAST from the East I think you will enjoy doing some more Band Maid. I discovered Band Maid in 2015 when I got bored with the N America music. The Japanese music scene is wicked. The idea of the Maid outfit is to show the gap( as the Japanese say) the difference from the conservitive to the power of their music.Have fun learning Band Maids music...PS love your reactions,,,I'm 64 and still rockin
Check out Thrill their first hit in 2014 the music video to see how they started, PEACE ,,,,BY the way They have covered SLIPKNOT and I believe they are scheduled to open for SLIPKNOT in Japan.
Nice reaction !!!
First get sucked in by the cutesy outfits and then get spit out by the raw power these women deliver.
They are all absolute pro´s !!
A 5-string bass instant sledge called Misa , a stealth shredder on lead guitar called Kanami and a re-incarnated John Bonham on the firework drums called Akane.
And on the fat meat ryhtm guitar work Mikku and the iron butterfly voice is Saiki.
I have known the band for 5 years now. There is no day without Band-Maid. At least one song a day.
Everytime they blow my mind. :-)
This song is from the album World Domination, my favorite of Band Maid but all the albums have a great quality with over 20 masterpieces. I find it curious that it is one of the few bands that most of their masterpieces are not singles or do not have a video on their official TH-cam page. Only with this one realizes that they have a large number of excellent songs. Greetings from Argentina.
Thank you for the good reaction! I enjoyed it very much.
If you are interested in Japanese women's bands singing in English...
I recommend the another all-female japanese POWER METAL band. "LOVEBITES"
LOVEBITES / When Destinies Align(Official MV)
LOVEBITES / Holy War(Official live MV)
LOVEBITES / Thunder Vengeance(Official live MV)
LOVEBITES / Swan Song
You ain't see nothing yet...try secret my lips, morotarium, puzzle, real existance, and please watch the live version...prepare to be amazed...kuurruuppoo..🤘🤘🤘🤘
Nice, I get hype again with this song watching your reactions!
Welcome to Band-Maid!
There's actually a meaning to the concept of their costumes. It's to showcase the contradictory of being maids while rocking out. Also in a sense of they're at your service, entertaining the people. Their live ARE better than their MVs, as their usually switch up and add musically from the original, such as extra rifts or solo. And their founder, the rhythm guitarist is the brains of the group.
But I think the others will have better explanation about the band..😊
