As they say in the business- Transitions, transitions, transitions. Especially in Band-Maid, where the composition of the different elements in a song can be so at odds with each other. In their case though, we have the key to it all, in Akane, who keeps everything so tight, along with her side kick Misa. In a way this song is a bit like some of those on Unseen World, which as we know, has plenty of these chaotic moments. Great reaction again guys.
Greetings and Happy Holidays 🎄🎁🎅 I want to thank you for the great reactions of Band-Maid. I believe "Epic Narratives" is one of my all time favorite albums that I have heard in my lifetime. (I'm 72) It took Kanami Tono about year and a half to write, compose and complete it. I believe "Epic Narratives" is Kanami Tono's Magnum Opus in my opinion. Great reaction again. Best Wishes.. ❤🕊️🇺🇸
Toi et Moi is a spicy mélange (as the French would say) of infectious riffs & hooks, vocals, instrumental work, Miku interjections -- just can't get enough of it.
This one will blow the needles off your Christmas tree...Even the fake ones ! 🎄🎄 Towards the end, Miku goes from high E to a high G... It'll melt your ornaments ! 🤯🔥
The chorus lyris translate as : Shut your eyes Use your head I ain't a good girl anymore You can't shut your eyes That's your fantasy, not "me", ah Don't say a word Don't even say a word!
Unusually aggressive and direct lyrics for Miku, enough that even Saiki wondered if she was OK when she saw them. This is a scorcher, it's this album's "Why why why" (from Unseen World) which is also an absolute kick butt song. The Instrumental Maid channel has a kick butt version of that song.
@@cats-eyes I love Why why why, Miku's ability to hold a note like a Hammond organ and just how it comes out of the gate like someone starting a top fuel dragster.
This is the Ultimate Pump Up song from EPIC Naratives. I send it to my brother in the morning he needs a little jump start, it never fails!] Thanks again for another great reaction and remember: Life is so much BETTER with BAND-MAID! 🤘😝🤘
You know its going to be a banger when the pigeons opens with a scream. MISA is destroying it, Kanami's crunchy guitar is crazy - Kanami is always hard right and Miku is hard left (in headphones). Akane is using her drums to make mochi and Saiki is leading the charge, waving the flag.
She's basically saying "Get down off of your high horse and quit comparing me to your ideal woman. This is who I am - accept it!". The aggressive music matches the lyrics very well.
The latest album has been my favorite since it came out. The new tracks on it are just so dang good! I'd ask if they will be able to top this, but it's Band-Maid. We already know the answer is yes.
Tequila Jimmy and The Gringa are giving us madiacs so much content lately. Love you guys keep up the amazing work. This song is amazing, hell the whole alum is amazing. Personal favourite is "The One" Kanami our genius composer goes into God mode. The One is a song you feel rather than hear. Also New song not from the album "Zen" out in January. The ladies never sleep apparently. Roll on B-M Monday.
There's a few heavy songs on this excellent album and Toi et Moi is definitely one of them. And of course they'll kill it live. Po! PS They announced the release of a new song in January, ZEN, which will also be used for the credits of an anime. Double Po!
Difficult to say if Miku is playing on the recordings yet. For the most part, Kanami records all of Miku's parts. It's quicker and cheaper that way. She still has to play them in the Music Videos and LIVEs, as well as sing at the same time, so not to take anything away from Miku. She's the Spokes Pigeon and the main Lyricist as well. Such a bundle of energy!
Love your reaction! What time is it? It is wake the f@ck up o'clock! BandMaid does it's duty to keep up the temperature inside the jukebox! Boy howdy! MISA don't hurt me no more! I promise I won't do it again!!
So thankful for you guys!!! You are feeding my Band Maid addiction so well. I may never be normal again. As always a great reaction and I am beginning to like you both almost as much as Band Maid!!❤🧡💛💚💙
Omg!!!! That is a super generous compliment and we will take it!!!! ❤❤❤ Sooooo much more Band-Maid to come!!! They have easily become one of my top fave rock bands!!! Po!!!!!!!!! 🕊️
Another amazing reaction you two. Love you going off on the Maids and yup...sorry TJ, Saiki is spoken for. You would not want an angry Kanami going Mincho mode on you. 🤣🤣🤣 This song is one of the best on this album. They really chose the right name for it...Epic Narratives...it just flows off the tongue. And the songs are epic indeed. Looking forward to the next BM reaction and the Miku series! Keep rocking with Maids...Master TJ and Princess TG. PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘
A hint, TJ. Kanami is almost always hard panned to the right, same as you see her on stage. MISA and Miku are usu on the left to left center. In this one, Kanami is a bit more right center. Of course, Saiki and Akane are straight in your face
Great hard rock song. Three little words in French and the French Maidiacs, I am one, cry with joy. THANKS. Je vous aime tous les deux (I’ll let you translate).😉
1st song that ended up in my playlist off this album, but as usual, the whole album ends up in my playlist. No other band has a catalog of songs and not have one that I do not like.
I have a request for you to check out Tequila Jimmy and The Gringa. It's called YOU. from their album Just Bring It. Or their 2018 live video from Yokohama Tokyo. You won't be disappointed.
@TJandTheGringa Thank You for Answering my request. I appreciate the time you took to get back to me. You two rock. Keep up the great reactions Tequila Jimmy and The Gringa.
A funny thing happened when I was listening to your last BM reaction. I had my headphones on listening so my wife answered my phone for me. As I paused and was taking them off I heard her say to the caller, " Oh he's just listening to music with some friends". I figured to might love hearing that, cuz really that's what we are doing. Also, help an oldster out. I don't have Paypal or any of these ways to contribute to folks like yourself to keep channels alive and well- is there a way to use a credit card? Thanks
They could set up a membership function, where you could join it, although that would probably be a monthly charge. You can pay for those with a CC. Credit card companies charge an extra percentage (1.5-3.5% per transaction) to use their services, so that's why things such as PayPal are used.
That’s so huge!!!! We totally feel the same way!!! When everyone shares music for us to listen to, it’s like we are listening along with our friends. Thank you sooooo much for hanging out with us!!!! I have no clue about technology. I’m not sure but I think that buy us a coffee link thing in our bio might be user friendly. If not, the super thanks button thingy on youtube might accept CCs. Either way, the thought is incredibly appreciated just as much!!!!!! Happy Friday!!!!!! 🎉
@@TheGringa-TJandTG Geezo I'm such a dunderhead that was so easy ONCE i found the link we I had been blind to. Anyway lotsa coffee headed your way lol :)
Wow Paddy. Thanks so much for the overwhelming generosity and support! We just received your coffees and can't wait to start chugging them! 😃.. please check your email as we sent you a response via the coffee site. Wishing you a magnificent weekend ‼️ We are so happy to have you here with us!! ❤️♥️❤️♥️
I hope the Maids find the time to make a video for some of the new songs they had on Epic Narratives or their production company videotapes some of their live concert footage for the songs to be put on TH-cam.
TJ and La Gringa, I hope you get a chance to react to another J-Rock group, Faulieu. Kaho, their lead guitarist uses PRS like Kanami and is excellent. Suggested song "SPICA". It's on TH-cam. Thanks!
Wow Bill... Your generosity is off the charts. We are so humbled and appreciative of you!! ... You can most definitely count on us to check out Faulieu! You will probably see it much sooner than the other reaction you requested I'm sorry it's taking so long we've been doing them in the order We got them but finally next Friday you will see that double reaction you requested! We hope that you've been enjoying the band-maid content along the way!.. we have the first part of the Miku documentary coming on Monday as well!.. love you Bill thank you for being so awesome to us since the get-go! Everything you've ever brought to light has been awesome and we are so excited to check this out!! ♥️♥️.. wishing you a marvelous weekend!
A MIKU scream is always a good way to start the day!
🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!
Kanami was channeling the Tower of Power horn section in her solo. Love it!
😁 nice one 👍🍻

Band-Maid unleashing the primal forces of hard rock again. This is brilliance ... like so many times before.
Toi et Moi is a spicy mélange (as the French would say) of infectious riffs & hooks, vocals, instrumental work, Miku interjections -- just can't get enough of it.
This one will blow the needles off your Christmas tree...Even the fake ones ! 🎄🎄 Towards the end, Miku goes from high E to a high G... It'll melt your ornaments ! 🤯🔥
😂👍🍻
I’m replacing my melted ornaments as we speak 😂
Frank!!! 🍺😁
😂
I'ts O.K. I've got a backup! 😎🤘
The chorus lyris translate as :
Shut your eyes Use your head
I ain't a good girl anymore
You can't shut your eyes
That's your fantasy, not "me", ah
Don't say a word
Don't even say a word!
Thank you for the Translation! Greetings from Hamburg and Heaven, Neis Christmas, Time Po! Ben❤
Great to see you checking out tracks w/o a video. Band Maid produces way too much great rock for every song to get an MV. Cheers.
🍻🍻

Agreed. The lyrics make it seem like Miku was DONE with someone being around.
I love "Why Why Why", but I don't often hear such opinions even in Maidiacs, so I'm so happy with your comment.🎉
@@cats-eyes I love Why why why, Miku's ability to hold a note like a Hammond organ and just how it comes out of the gate like someone starting a top fuel dragster.
@@cats-eyes Why Why Why is a wildly underrated song. People forget how good it is.
It's great to see some love for "Why Why Why"! It's effing awesome
Surprised you didn’t mention any of them, but Miku is screaming for roughly 12% of this song.
The whole second half of this album is just incredible, IMO.
This is the Ultimate Pump Up song from EPIC Naratives. I send it to my brother in the morning he needs a little jump start, it never fails!]
Thanks again for another great reaction and remember:
Life is so much BETTER with BAND-MAID!

If you check out the lyrics to this...... you can imagine it being a prequel or sequel to "HATE?"
There's a few heavy songs on this excellent album and Toi et Moi is definitely one of them. And of course they'll kill it live. Po! PS They announced the release of a new song in January, ZEN, which will also be used for the credits of an anime. Double Po!
We gonna be all over that!! 🍻
I knew it was worth waking up early this morning
❤️❤️❤️🍻🍻🍻
I don't know about you guys....but Akane went F#%king hard in this song !!!!!!
💯‼️
The one is the best song in this album
They are going to have a new song called "Zen" coming out in January, that is the OP for a new MAPPA anime called ZENSHU.
Awesome ‼️

That's an amazing compliment! Humbled! 😃
Missioned Souls just did a fantastic cover of Band Maid's Bestie... the kids did it again❤❤❤
It will be coming here soon stay tuned!
This is one of my favorites, if not the favorite, from the new album of the songs that had not been released as singles/videos.
Another amazing reaction you two. Love you going off on the Maids and yup...sorry TJ, Saiki is spoken for. You would not want an angry Kanami going Mincho mode on you. 🤣🤣🤣 This song is one of the best on this album. They really chose the right name for it...Epic Narratives...it just flows off the tongue.

😂 “Mincho mode” 😂 Thank you so much for the kindness!!!!! Po!!! 🕊️
❤️❤️❤️
A hint, TJ. Kanami is almost always hard panned to the right, same as you see her on stage. MISA and Miku are usu on the left to left center. In this one, Kanami is a bit more right center. Of course, Saiki and Akane are straight in your face
Now thats a pro tip! Thanks for that! 🍻
This is my favourite album for Saiki vocals
I'm not sure, but I think Kanami continues to record two guitars in the studio, like before.
Great hard rock song. Three little words in French and the French Maidiacs, I am one, cry with joy. THANKS. Je vous aime tous les deux (I’ll let you translate).😉
