    Don't be afraid to say pop with these bands, they incorporate tons of pop influences into their music. The best thing about Japanese bands, that I find, is that they don't care a lick about genre. They make good music and whatever elements they have to use they use them . Also yeah it'll take your brain a little to adjust but a lot of their songs are mostly in English. They do blend Japanese in with it but after a while of listening to a bunch of Japanese bands you start to naturally hear the switch between Japanese and english.

      A female voice singing a song in the proper standard fashion is just called SINGING, not Pop style. In the music industry, the word POP stands for BUBBLEGUM POP music, not POPULAR music. Unfortunately, the internet has blurred all of that. Pop music is light and poofy, aimed at a younger mostly female audience. Heavy music has nothing to do with vocal style. It is all about the style of music played. Unfortunately, they DO have some bubblegum music in their catalog, though. They've even made a semi-country song that sounds like Taylor Swift wrote it.

    Mayu has one of the most unique voices in music at the moment. There's a grit to it that doesn't feel abrasive when she wants to soften the tone, but when she lets loose you can't help but take notice. You know who it is the minute the words come out. Thanks NittPicc for another great reaction.

  • @yakidin63

    Nemophila, Hanabie and Lovebites. Probably the 3 newer killer Japanese all lady "metal" bands. Nemophila are known for their variety. Hanabie have their own style called harajukucore and Lovebites are maybe power metal. There are many other bands though and Japanese music is a whole new world of enjoyment. The older bands that set the scene like Show Ya and Maximum the Hormone and Loudness and X-Japan are amazing as well. Nemophila are also famous with their fans for their covers which will lead you into checking out other Japanese bands. Their Rottengraffty cover is cool to check out.

  • @Oedwak
    @Oedwak 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    That was so much fun! "DIssension" is one of Nemophila's simpler and earlier songs but still a great introduction to Mayu's voice I think. The gang vocals are in English and there are subtitles to help if you want to go back and understand the lyrics. I think the music translates pretty well though. Thanks for being you and sharing the experience as you rabbit, pigeon, and other small animal hole with us.

    @NittPicc, It's been so much fun to watch you getting your mind blown in real time by these great Japanese bands! You quickly picked up that Nemophila is both heavy and "soft and fluffy" (yurufuwa or ゆるふわ) at the same time. Over the past year, Band-Maid has become my favorite rock band and Nemophila my favorite metal band. Don't be afraid to use the "p" word, either, as these Japanese bands frequently incorporate "poppy" melodies and hooks in their rock and metal.

    Welcome to your second home, Princess NittPicc! I'm glad you liked Nemophila, they are definitely in my top 3 for favorite bands. Nemophila is more or less a supergroup, and every member is a master of their instruments, including the vocalist Mayu. This video does have closed captions, and you would be surprised by how much English were used in the lyrics. They are similar to Band Maid in that they refuse to be locked down to any specific genre or sub-genre and often switch genres in the middle of a song. You will probably love "Adabana" which is one of my favorites from them. Their drummer, Tamu is largely considered to be one of the best drummers in Japan, right along with Akane, Nao from Maximum the Hormone, and Senri Kawaguchi from The Jazz Avengers. Please take care and have an awesome day!

The journey through the vast Japanese rock music scene has only just begun!. My favourite Nemo song is Raitei.

    They have 2 lead guitarists (Hazuki-san (Ibanez), Saki-san (Killer[KG]) that also play Rhythm vs the traditional combo of 1 lead, 1 Rhythm. I think most metal bands have this setup nowadays. Also, I think this song and this MV was the first time Mayu-san colored her hair orange red. (She's done it a few other times since then.) Haraguchi-san plays the 5 string Sadowsky. The drummer is Murata Tamu-san. Similar to Akane-san of Band-Maid, she is inspired by Maximum the Hormone's female drummer Kumamoto Nao.

    yeah these ladies are just pure talent. and their style of metal and sound is constantly evolving and changing. OH FYI, most of their songs, not all but most, are ruffly 50-75% english. but because of her vocal fry screams and accent, its hard to tell on first listen. turn on CC and you will get the subtitled lyrics and then listen again, you will suddenly start hearing the english, even during the vocal fry's. Hazuki(guitarist on the first solo) uses a 7-string Ibanez, SAKI (guitarist on 2nd solo) uses her 7-string Killer signature model, though all of her KILLER branded guitars are 7-string, and Haraguchisan (the bassist) uses a Sadowsky 5-string.

    Great reaction and welcome to the kick ass world of Nemophila! One of the best bands out of Japan. Like some have said yes there is a effect which is making Mayu's voice more high and shrieky on this studio version. But she can growl and scream very good live. This just adds a bit more to it. But live she is amazing. The whole band are amazing and some of the best musicians out of Japan. I got to see them live in Dallas last year. loud as hell and great show. They are metal but can play anything and any style. Metal,hard rock, rock pop , even bluesy rock they ever do a few ballads here and there too. they can do it all. Mayu in many songs mixes the growls and clean vocals a lot but there are also quite a few songs she does not growl and scream. Her cleans are awesome with that slight rasp. If you dig this song you are going to enjoy this band a lot. I recommend all their songs but just to name a few. Adabana,Raitei,Oiran Live, Revive,Hypnosis,Monsters. Zen live one of their heaviest where she growls through whole song. Also Ama-Te-Ras their newest release which is a very cool song which is like rock groove with metal sandwich in between. That is off their new and 3rd album that just came out last month. hope to see more your reactions to this great band.

    Hello, I am an old Japanese guy & BM-CD member.
    As someone may have already informed you, Nemophila is the name of a plant with a small flower with five modest pale blue petals (It's the logomark of this band). The phonetic symbols is "nimɑ'fələ | -mɔ'f-."
    However, in Japan, this plant is pronounced "nemofìlə," and this band is usually called by that pronunciation in Japan. Therefore, the fans all tend to pronounce it the Japanese way.

    Hahahahah - your face at the start. Priceless.
    Discovered Nemophila with this song as well. And got to see them at Aftershock in 2022, along with Band Maid, The Warning, Apocalyptica, Spiritbox. So many bands I had just started listening too during the covid years were playing there that year.
    Nemophila is another one of those groups that refuses to be pigeonholed. Their stuff is pretty diverse. Lots of full on in your face metal like this track, but also a lot of stuff that either mixes in other influences or steps completely sideways into other genres. They have a lot of covers up on youtube as well, which are also quite diverse.
    Highly recommend listening to other tracks like , Hypnosis, Adabana, Rise, & two of their latest songs Ama-te-ras, & Odyssey. Enjoy.

    Nemophila is such a great band who loves to have fun while performing. They gained more international attention during the pandemic lockdown by uploading covers of other bands like Iron Maiden, KISS, Babymetal and more, usually wearing those bands merch (or in the case of KISS, the face-paint) to TH-cam.
    In fact, they just released an album of covers earlier this year.

    Im sure with all these comments youve got a pretty good idea on bio on these ladies. They were all accomplished musicians before Mayu (singer) got them together for what was supposed to be a one off project for a metal show, however they had such a great time together they decided make it permanent. They are each worth a detailed bio but briefly on the drimmer Tamu Murata. She was already one of the most sought after seasoon drummers on Tokyo before joining Nemophila, working on projects that ranged fom jazz, pop, prog, fusion and punk. Mayu also taught drums at a musical Institute, toured Asia performing drum clinics for Tama drums and hosted a drum based program. Tamu also can play classical piano, guitar, bass and sax. Her personal channel shows her versatility, backing girl group Watusa in Nekonote band, playing Jazz covers, prog covers, metal etc. The woman is a beast on the kit.

    The J-Rock and J-Metal scene is amazing. So many great bands, and it really seems like the Japanese have decided that genres are a silly thing to worry about. Nemophila has had a lot of variation in the songs on their albums, which is really cool. You need to get to Hanabie. and LOVEBITES, plus one of my favourite underrecognized bands, SAISEIGA (their singer, Reagan, has an incredible voice). Then you could get really crazy and check out sokoninaru, Ningen Isu, Kroi (MISA and Saiki from BAND-MAID are really into them), D-Drive, Asterism...I could go on. I fell into this rabbit hole head first myself between Christmas and New Years 2019 when I finally caved on clicked on the BAND-MAID video TH-cam had been recommending to me for weeks, and I have yet to find the bottom.

    Yes, Mayu's voice has been put through quite a few filters here, even too many for my taste, but believe me, that doesn't take anything away from the fact that she really has such an extreme range. You will rarely hear her so extremely 'filtered' after this, but rather with that natural edge that I think suits her much better. And even if it might sound a little unbelievable right now, her voice can even bring tears to your eyes. So when it comes to versatility, you better buckle up, because this is going to be a rollercoaster ride. I promise!!!

PS 2:35 "I can't understand what they're saying because of the style she's singing in" and 6:55 - "I don't know what they're saying. I can't decipher it". I can help solve that - there are English subtitles on the MV, on the CC button at the bottom of the video.

    This song is actually mostly in English, except for a couple lines during the choruses. However, Mayu barely speaks any English, so between her accent and the harsh vocals, she can be very hard to understand. As for the pronunciation, both are correct, depending on whether you're saying the band's name, or the flower they are named after. The flower is pronounced "neh-MOFF-il-la" (yeah, I know it is counterintuitive, but that is the pronunciation that the horticultrist who came up with the word chose), and the band's name is pronounced "neh-mo-fee-la." This is due in part to the fact that it is rare and awkward in Japanese for syllables to end in a consonant sound, so they phrased it in a way that each syllable ends in a vowel sound (also, the way they pronounce it is more intuitive, since the roots of the word are "nemo" ("woodlands") and "phila" ("love").

    You got there. Yay! Nemophila are rather good, I liked them so much I started a Facebook fans group for them back in 2020. I heard about them from their first cover of Iron Maiden’s Trooper as soon as they released it as I was already following Mary’s Blood (Saki Gt) and Disqualia, (Hazuki Gt), and I knew of Tamu (Dr) from many things she had done. I wasn’t massively impressed until a few weeks later they put their first single, Oiran, up on TH-cam and I was 100% sold. This was now early COVID days and they decided to do a streaming concert that got maybe 1000 views tops - it was awesome. I nearly missed it which is why I made the fan group, so I wouldn’t miss another one. I think it has 5.6 K members now, which isn’t bad in this genre.
    Dissension is an anti-establishment song with references to politicians and media people trying to appear far more than they actually are, spouting lies and bullshit - it’s rebellion, it’s Rock’n’Roll and the lyrics are credited to “She Knows”. I’m not sure who that is but she has my respect.
    Nemophila are pretty diverse. Mayu put in the work to be able to banshee as well as sing with that awesome rock grit. To begin with she couldn’t make a whole hour but today she looks like a natural up there and finishes as strong as she starts. All by hard work and a passion to make this band as good as it can possibly be.
    I’ve seen them live twice and have watched all the streams, was not disappoint.

    7 string guitars usually have one string turned lower than usual. It gives a heavier sound so many metal guitarists like them.

  • @agdtec
    @agdtec 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The seven string is usually on the lower octave notes. Using it to get higher pitch would require an thinner diameter string which would be more prone to breakage when played hard, like this type of music. Not saying it can't be done, but it would require a lighter plucking or strumming as more aggressive would break the string. And with many trem (tremolo) systems breaking one string can pull the rest out of tune.
