What puts them ahead of EVERY other band is that they are seemless... Seemless pace switching (everyone), seemless switch from tapping to picking (lead guitar), seemless picking to slapping (bass) and so on. They merge together into ONE if they play together, there is so much chemistry and talent, for me it´s the best band on earth right now. I heard a lot of bands, metal, rock, dnb (Pendulum), punk etc., but they are taking the top spot easily! Greetings from Germany
IIRC Kanami's repeatedly said that guitar solos (basically 90% of this song) should "sing" like a vocal. And she writes the vocal melodies for other songs, they just get tweaked and elaborated by Miku & Saiki.
Maidiac's call this song "Saiki pee break"! EVH. smiles everytime this song is played, Kanami is so awesome at tapping! Freedom, live, Feb 14th, 2020 is Akane's longest drum solo, and is excellent! Without Holding Back is the latest instrumental song, and it's excellent 👌!
They usually do an instrumental mid-concert to give Saiki (lead vocals) a break. There are a couple instrumental they do, "Don't be long" is another favorite!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘
Lead guitarist Kanami and side guitarist Miku recently had a session with DragonForce Herman Li. You can see it on TouTube. The song is another instrumental song from BAND MAID. The interview was also uploaded to TH-cam two days ago.
These ladies... 🔥I'm running out of superlatives over here. So on the 10th of May these ladies have an Okyu-ji (serving/concert) and it is also being streamed, I would definitely recommend. Thank you for the reaction 🖤
I love this band more than any since the 90s because their mix of interesting musicianship and songwriting has, in my opinion, not been matched since then. I appreciate your continued look at this band. You've done so much Japanese music but I don't think you've yet touched on the absolute madness of Sokoninaru. I recommend "Tenohira De Odoru".
Great reaction and you may get some links to videos that were on some of the BD releases where they play songs with just the instruments so that you can see them much better. Onset is one of my favorite instrumentals, but "Without Holding Back" is overtaking that, but the video is pretty hard to find - here's a reaction video that allows it to play without interruption - th-cam.com/video/lb77XVvb2Uk/w-d-xo.html
Band Maid are a true live animal. They jam in the song, and the connection with the audience astounding. Try live tracks FREEDOM and REAL EXISTENCE for more musical mayhem and madness from all the girls.
If you're looking for creative, interesting drumming, check out alone, No God, sayonakidori or Giovanni. Unfortunately there's no drum solos but I personally think drumming and instrumentation in general are more complex in these songs than in freedom.
Even without Saiki,they are mindblowing good.And of course each one of them KILLS!Akane is the beast on drums.Misa is the assassin on bass.Kanami the princess on gtr.And Miku the pigeon rules on rtm
Ah! Proof that you do not read your own comments section. Back in the Domination (Live) video, it was mentioned that Onset was an instrumental and that you should really check it out. Now we know :p

Well said.
Band Maid is just the best there is today! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
Whoever did the mix deserves the inaugural award of the gold Tiny Hat statuette for best sound :)
MISA melted hers down and turned it into a boot scraper
@@glenkelley6799 Lol. She never did like that hat :)
Just give this award to Band-Maid every year. They always sound the best.
@@tinyhato You're right. I cannot disagree with what Tiny Hat says about the Tiny Hat statuette ;)
And still the mix in the Band-Maid Shinkiba Studio Coast concert is better
If you listen to this song enough times, you actually start to hear vocals from the guitars. Unless that's just me and I'm going insane. :)
You're okay. Now when you can recite back the lyrics to me...
i hear it too
Strange, I hear them too. Looks like we are all nuts here. 😆🤘🏻

Kanamincho makes her prs sing😉
One thing about Band Maid can be frustrating and amazing at the same time. They always leave you desperately wanting more.
The drum solo you are looking for is in "Freedom" live
I was just about to write that myself :-)
@@Rabbi_Rabbs Me to.

You have to check out “Without Holding Back” instrumental....... watch “Freedom” live from 2020 for a longer drum solo.
They usually do an instrumental mid-concert to give Saiki (lead vocals) a break. There are a couple instrumental they do, "Don't be long" is another favorite!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘
Jeez & i thought i was fast :)

Band-maid's day May 10 (pronounced 'toe' in Japanese), makes it sound like 'maid'. I've already got the ticket hooray!

Freedom, live performance. Enjoy the drums...
You should check out freedom live if you want a drum solo.
Drum Solo? your looking for the Song "Freedom" Live.. Watch Akane go off on those drums
MISA MISA MISA....

Nice.👍
Copies of videos are still floating around on bilibili among other BM videos that are no longer available on YT
@paco acosta You have all the individual instrumentals from the BD releases? Even the ones with the focus on a single member? That's cool if you do 👍
@paco acosta Never heard of "go nuts". I've seen a few fan cams of "Don't Be Long" though
Now you need to listen their another instrumental titled Without Holding Back. That song was played during Herman Li's twitch stream.

❤️
This is ROCK
PLEASE WATCH “Freedom” live for a drum solo
Chack song Play if you wanna hear more bass, and bass-guitar solo battle. And you have drum solo in the song Freedom.
........... Akane’s snare!
MISA MISA MISA!

OK, how many BM Fans want BM to do a cover of Kick Out The Jams by MC5? I do!
Even without Saiki,they are mindblowing good.And of course each one of them KILLS!Akane is the beast on drums.Misa is the assassin on bass.Kanami the princess on gtr.And Miku the pigeon rules on rtm
