    That's funny coz they did a cover of Linkin Park's "Given up" (with the famous 17 sec long scream that she nailed). th-cam.com/video/g7DLSCP0Ghg/w-d-xo.html
    That's how they started, with a lot of covers and a few originals.
    Cheers from France

    Love them. Very versatile. Have seen them live twice and they were incredible. Lovebites, Band-Maid, Nemophila are 3 of the best bands to come along in many years. If you want some chaos you really need to check out Hanabie as well. The entire Japanese music scene is phenomenal, especially the metal/rock genres. A huge amount of incredible musicians and bands are there.

    Nemophila - "baby blue eyes" flower, "Rurikarakusa" in Japanese; grows in N-America and is appreciated in Japan (see "Hitachi Seaside Park").
    The band was formed in 2019, originally as a "session" brought together by...
    Mayu - the vocalist (ex- Lipstick band);
    Haraguchi-san - (ex- HöLDERLINS band) bass, backing vocals, was Mayu's friend and colleague from Music College;
    Tamu Murata - drums, backing vocals, one the most respected session musician in Japan (countless bands), with also her own original carrier; she's also the wife of Akira Yamaoka, musician/composer, known especially for his videogames OSTs, in particular for "Silent Hill";
    Saki (ex - "Mary's Blood" band for a decade, "Destrose", and others), she's a "young sacred monster" in J-metal) guitar, backing vocals, and...
    Hazuki (KOIAI "Dark Indigo" / Li-sa-X, Disqualia bands) - guitar, backing vocals; both, Saki and Hazuki have a lot of experience.
    Unfortunately, Saki left the band in march 2024, after the Budokan concert, thinking that her contribution was enough after more than 4-5 years, pursuing her - successful - solo carrier, and then she became a member of Like-an-Angel band.
    The band continues in the 4 members form, with Mayu starting to add guitar bits while Haraguchi-san's bass, and Hazuki's guitar becomes more prominent.
    Nemophila, with their self-declared "Jigoku no Yurufuwa" (soft and fluffy hell) general metal-rock style, made an amazing fandom impression during the pandemic, thru TH-cam clips...
    ...so far about 50 Western/Japanese awesomely bonkers covers, and about 40 original, freakishly insane good songs (singles, EPs - including the JPURecords' Extended Edition of "Oiran", 3 albums - "Revive", "Seize The Faith", "Evolve"; EP - "Beautiful Days").
    New album "Apple of my eye" for January 2025 (10 songs, containing the 3 from "Beautiful Days" EP).

    Crowd activity? Depends on the venue. Moshing at Nagoya Electric Ladyland last month where they had the space. A few weeks ago in a small club there was extreme moshing, wall of death, crowd surfing. Mayu did a couple stage dives. Caught her once. During the next band, one of Mayu's favorites, she and Haraguchi-san came out on the floor and participated with the crowd. There's a photo floating around showing Mayu crowd surfing while Haraguchi-san moshes.

    Great reaction!....Nemophila (neh-mo-fee-la) is 🔥🔥🔥
    Nemophila has a WIDE range of sound and style...here are some suggestions based on Mayu's lead vocals (cleans vs screams)

    G.O.D (MV) th-cam.com/video/18Ddh0UFVN8/w-d-xo.html
    Screams
    Zen (Live) th-cam.com/video/k1yPbBRHFms/w-d-xo.html
    Most people start with Dissention (MV, Japanese ver.) or Revive (MV) and then Adabana (MV), Rise (MV), etc.
    'Zen' (live), Oiran (live) and Dissention (MV) are some of their hardest and best songs
    'Odyssey' is an incredible power ballad (80's style) and 'Live' is an emotional ballad-like song sung in the video as a 'welcome back' to Tamu (drummer) after her maternity leave. Great songs that show the softer side of Nemophila.
    'Ama-Te-Ras' is a quite unique 'groovy metal' song and one of their best as well.
    ‘G.O.D.’ is their newest song and 1st song as a 4-piece band
    And don't miss their many covers...they are all great as well!

    8:12 to 8:20 - welcome to "noise gating". A topic of sound engineering. It is easily done during production, to contribute to a studio recording. It is way more demanding during live recordings.
    In this case (as it is studio sound track and live video track), it is a refreshing feature of this video.

      100 percent agree Angel. I honestly think they are the most diverse out of the well known bands out of Japan. But of course I have not heard every band either haha. But yes Nemophila can play anything. Had a chance to listen to part of their new song coming out Christmas day which is called Brainwash. It is their most brutal heaviest song to date. Honestly makes Zen seem Zen haha.

    Why is no one moshing? Venue rules, most likely. Japanese venues tend to be pretty vigilant about enforcing venue rules, and Japanese audiences tend to be much more respectful than American audiences.

    From here I would suggest 'Rise' Live for straight down the middle classic Nemophila or 'Zen' Live for their heaviest song with nearly 100% harsh vocals. But you really can't go wrong with any of their songs. Thanks again for reaction to Nemophila!

    I watched that actual live on a stream and it was better than the studio version. That place was ridiculous hot. So much so that Saki, the guitarist right of screen had to wipe down her guitar with a towel as it was covered in sweat. (Saki has since left the band amicably and does her own solo stuff) Nemophila have a new album coming out in January too so look out for new songs.

    Regarding moshing - that is not really a Japanese thing. The only two Japanese bands I know that have moshing are Babymetal and Maximum the Hormone. And both do moshing controlled by the artists, in particular Babymetal, that only has quite harmless circular pits. Maximum the Hormone are wild though. More than wild.

    Thanks for yet another great reaction---subscribed. And, oh! You need suggestions, and you need some moshing?
    I suggest you try HANABIE. They are max fun. "いとをかしMyType" is great for an introductory music video. And if you want to see them live, try the LIVE version of "Pardon Me I Have to Go Now".
    I've attended them live, and there was headbanging, moshing, a Wall of Death, coordinated jumping, crowdsurfing. Until this year (for safety reasons), the lead vocalist was known to crowd surf, and the bassist to descend into the crowd to play in the middle of a Circle Pit. ("Tousou" is the Wall of Death song, and also a great choice.)
