This is BAND-MAID! This is a rare song where the lyrics are a bit nasty. Almost always positive lyrics in all their songs. Check out FROM NOW ON for a rock/metal/prog instrumental that ranks right up there with the best of them. Guaranteed. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Peace. 10.2
Hey JMATAB i'm beginning to believe you really like "From Now On".😁
@@GaryHolloway-810 I DO! I adore FROM NOW ON. I thought they'd never top ONSET but they did. And of course Kanami is front and center. If a Rock fan is not enamored with FROM NOW ON then they can't be a Rock fan. Can they top it? I hope so with my dedicated Mincho always evolving. 🎸🔥😎
@@jkkansasband7056 I knew it. And not only does Mincho do her tapping she also shows us her sweep picking skills which is not an easy technique to do & still sound awesome :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 You are on the button Gary. MINCHOMANIA FROM NOW ON!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for this! 🤠
Welcome to Band-Maid! The best hard rock band I have heard in my 58 years on this planet. They don't stick to any one genre and often mix genres in songs. They are extremely diverse and have an extensive back catalogue featuring Punk, Pop-Punk, Hard-Rock, Classic Rock, Metal, Prog, Blues, Jazz, Groove, Rap etc. From face melting 220 bpm punk-prog to ballads, instrumentals to acoustics they do it all. They can make you headbang, they can make you pogo, they can make you cry like a baby. They are also five of the nicest people in music, without a shred of ego. They are funny and fun and world class musicians to boot. They are currently into their 11th year with the original line up.
Btw, Miku the rhythm guitarist (red rose) formed the band. She had the idea of Band-Maid after working as a maid in Japanese maid cafe's. Her idea is a concept called "The Gap" - that is what you see (cute maids) is NOT what you get (Hard Rock/Punk/Metal). They take the maid café concept literally. They call their concerts "servings" and their fans "Masters and Princesses". Oh, and Miku is an 810 year old small pigeon. Welcome to the pigeon hole Po!
Happy to be here! and I am happy your are here also!
Band Maid every day keep the doctor happy.
😂😂😂😂😂
Naked truth!
They are rock and roll guardian angels and the best hard rock band on this planet🤘Keep an eye on them!!
I am going to dive into more!
Some suggestions from this talented ladies: Puzzle official live video, From now on MV, Onset live video,Real existence live, Warning MV, Domination live video.Enjoy 😉
This is a kick ass song, but it'll take you 20 or so before you really "get" how good they are. Welcome to the best hard rock band on the planet.
Congratulations on discovering the #1 band in the world today! Enjoy the ride!! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂🕊
I really enjoyed this!! 🤠
Hi, Roger. BEST ROCK BAND ON THE PLANET. Watch REAL EXISTENCE live. Everything they do is good.
Hate as a theme is very unusual for a Band-maid song. Most songs are super positive and encouraging. But they wrote this in defense of a friend whose husband had a very public affair during Covid. While hate might be unusual for Band-maid, defending a friend is very Band-maid.
HATE? is awesome & has a MISA & Kanami lead/bass conversation so awesome that i'm glad they let us eavesdrop.😌
Appreciate this! 🤠
Roger is running absolutely amok. 💯 I wish he was promoting me I'd be a star 🌟 🤩
@@stephenchigwidden7504 Roger?....Ohhh THAT Roger.😁👌
@GaryHolloway-810 I've gone out walking 3 days in a row. I was weezing a bit today but I'm really starting to make progress. Hope I don't have permanent lung damage but it is a possibility 🤔 but anyway I continue to live with a positive attitude.
@@stephenchigwidden7504 Awesome, Stephen. I hope you continue to keep improving. I've just started doing some arm curls with 7.5kg dumb-bells. I want to rebuild some muscle mass & it strengthens the heart muscle dontcha know.💪🫀
Welcome, Buck. You are embarking on (along with many others - nearly 200 million YT views plus over 40 million reactor plays!) an awesome, progressive, 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 Prog, Punk, Metal and Pop, with nice touches of Blues, Jazz, Funk and Grunge. Sometimes they use multiple genres within the same song. Their Composition, Execution, Joy of Playing, Consistency (130+ songs), Uniqueness, Charisma, Charm and, oh yeah, Cuteness factor, position them as becoming the hard rock Beatles of our time! In other words, they’re destined 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 70 favorites! "Thrill" (2014) is a great place to start: th-cam.com/video/Uds7g3M-4lQ/w-d-xo.html Their songs from albums Unleash, Unseen World, Conqueror, World Domination, Just Bring It, Brand New Maid, and New Beginning drive even more - Shambles, Warning, No God, Different, Black Hole, Rinne, Blooming, Moratorium, Domination, Clang, Dice, Spirit, Don’t You Tell Me, Turn Me On, Fate, Play, Hide-And-Seek, Secret My Lips, Puzzle, 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, Bestie, About Us, Memorable, Anemone, Endless Story, PAGE, At The Drop Of A Hat, Mirage and Smile... or more punky like After Life, Don’t Let Me Down and Screaming… or funky like Bubble… or bluesy like Manners and The Dragon Cries… or poppy like Start Over… or a bit jazzy like Wonderland… or progressive like No God, Giovanni, and Black Hole… or cultural like the Band-Maiko series… or instrumentals like From Now On, Don’t Be Long, Onset, Without Holding Back and Going Nuts… or their many acoustic versions like Catharsis and Sayonakidori... and last but not least, their Anime hits (AniMaid) like Sense, Glory and Unleash!!!!! (from their own Anime MV (series?)): th-cam.com/video/7LB_EPS48HE/w-d-xo.html)
And many songs are represented with over 50 well produced music videos. th-cam.com/users/BANDMAID
Most performances should be experienced from their LIVE audience & online OKYUJI concerts:
2023 Yokohama 10th Year Anniversary Concert “Endless Story” th-cam.com/video/Za1y-RRVd70/w-d-xo.html
ONLINE OKYU-JI (Feb. 11, 2021) “No God” th-cam.com/video/nAdWnIRjGak/w-d-xo.html
Tokyo's LINE CUBE SHIBUYA (February 14, 2020) “Domination” th-cam.com/video/QbyQCJn6rYg/w-d-xo.html
ZEPP 2018 “Real Existence” th-cam.com/video/-qQnKILR5u0/w-d-xo.html
Shinkiba Studio Coast 2017 and other full concerts are on bandmaidprime.tokyo, bili, and official Band-Maid’s DVD/BD/CD.

And some of the better quality fan videos are excellent. Here’s two of what it’s like to see Band-Maid LIVE at an intimate venue:
Shot by Pat McKee from their 2023 US tour concert in Detroit: th-cam.com/video/DgxU-MVjta0/w-d-xo.html
See the Maids 2023 Rockville Festival’s short-set perfection performance: th-cam.com/video/vjZkNeoGmhc/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.

Band-Maid Members:
Saiki Atsumi (Sy-i-Key or Psyche) “StarQueen" - Lead vocals, arrangements and melodies. At 30 and the youngest, “Sensei” (Teacher) as band members call her, has the last word on many musical decisions. High-heels or sneakers, Sai-chan’s smile melts away her sometimes perceived, coldish persona. Saiki’s powerhouse performances, charisma, and voice focus the experience that’s driven her to the top echelon of hard rock frontwomen... or frontmen!
Miku Kobato (Me-Ku) "Small Pigeon" - Rhythm guitar, vocals, lyricist, 32 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. Kuruppo! No, no, no… KURUPPO!!
Kanami Tono (Ka-Na-Me) “Princess” - Lead guitar, keyboards, 32 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, 33 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 “DrumZilla” is the Party!
MISA (Me-Sa) "Barefoot Assassin" - Bass, 31 years old. An alluring free spirit driving her 5-string to rapturous low-ends while pulling off surprising counter leads with Kanami, off-stage MISA is the band’s goofball ballerina. Sometimes seen as the Mysterious One because she lets her instrument do the talking, the Assassin 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!
Maidiacs (Maid-e-acts) - Band-Maid’s crazed yet supportive, knowledgeable and loyal Super Fans.
[BAND-MAID NEWS]
BAND-MAID PRIME - Special Video Distribution Website.

Thank you for this!
Welcome to the Maidiacs, BUCKEYE.
I predict that you are gonna fall hard down this pigeon hole. Don't worry, there are a lot of us down here. And it's always room for more.
Thank you for being here for it!
Thanks for the great reaction. You will find that this band and the fans (Maidiacs) have a great mutual love and respect for each other. You can try their song Manners Official Music Video- It's more at the bluesy end of their repertoire.
Your Welcome!!
Hey BUCKEYE, Glad you took the chance.
Thank you for being here! Appreciate you! 🤠
Perhaps the greatest proper rock and roll band of the 21st century! Drummer Akane Hirose and bassist MISA are definitely the best rhythm section in currently touring hard rock and roll bands. Miku Kobato is the absolute brightest and funniest 2nd vocalist/lyricist/rhythm guitarist/ founder and spokesperson on the planet! Saiki Atsumi is the sweetest and most charismatic lead singer (who also wrote the lyrics to this song) alive. Kanami Tono is the most inventive, creative and collaborative composer/ lead guitarist currently amazing fans of proper rock music across the USA and Japan. This is an uncharacteristicly negative song for BandMaid however it is so over the top venomous as to be charming. As I mentioned previously Saiki wrote these lyrics so DO NOT PISS HER OFF!
Great reaction! New sub here! Roger is fast becoming legendary in his evangelical success introducing BandMaid to reactors everywhere! We're not worthy! We're not worthy! But BandMaid is!!!
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
Greetings from Australia, Roger sent me your way, B-M are an amazing musical journey, enjoy the ride Brother you won't regret it, cheers 👍🍻
Howdy Australia! Happy you are here for the journey!
Buckeye, you now need to react to Band-Mate's newest release titled "Bestie". It is almost the complete opposite of "Hate?" Roger is the Johnny Appleseed of Band-Maid music. We Band-Maid fans call ourselves Maidiacs. We are also plentiful. Once you jump down the "pigeon-hole" of Band-Maid music it's going to be hard to forget them. I'm a 75 year old veteran and have see a lot of great rock and roll in my life, from the conic to the not so well known. Band-Maid has reinvigorated my love of rock and roll, after decades of not being impressed with the genre. Many Maidiac feel the same way. I have managed to attend two of their live concerts. I not only come away from them impressed and feeling they were worth every penny I spent, I was moving around like a damned teenager during the shows!
Thank you! I cannot wait to react to more!
The 4th concert of their's I went to, they did this version of this song. I was blown away, and I already knew how good they were. Also, I was only about 8 feet away from the stage while they did this. Amazing. Also, when you are up where they can see you, they will interact with you. This band loves their fans.
Appreciate this!
Finally, the SRV has returned to us. In the form of a beautiful Japanese girl. We've waited so long.
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this! SVR
Members of Lovebites were in the crowd for this show 🎶🤘
Front and centre
thank you Roger, for planting a seed of Band-Maid whenever/wherever you can, Band-Maid the best ROCK band touring right now
This was song #27 out of 33 during a 3 hour 45 minute concert at Yokohama Arena last November. Endless energy!!
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
Thanks for the reaction and comments. These ladies are FIRE!!!!! About 5 songs into their extensive catalogue, you'll run out of superlatives. You'll be saying "WOW...that was another amazing song. What more is there to be said that hasn't already been said?!" A general rule of thumb when reacting to a B-M song is to check out the official live video version first. They are one of those rare bands that sound better live. Some songs that do not currently have an official live video that you don't want to miss, however, are Shambles, Blooming and Influencer, just to name a few. Anyway, looking forward to more reactions going forward. Cheers!
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
welcome to the fandom. BTW - Band Maid & The Warning are big fans of each other
Loved your reaction to the MAIDS BUCKEYE! There are dozens more incredible BAND-MAID songs for you to explore, and the MAIDIACS will be more than happy to assist you on your journey.
I’m not a musician, so here’s how I listen to BAND-MAID songs:
First listen: I just listen to the song and completely ignore the lyrics. I don’t understand most of them anyway.
Upon second listen, I focus on MISA on the bass. Third listen I focus on AKANE’s drumming. On the 4th listen I focus on MIKU’s rhythm guitar. 5th listen I pay particular attention to KANAMI’s background lead guitar parts (her solos jump out at me so I don’t usually need to focus specifically on them.)
After listening to the song for the 10,000th time it usually dawns on me to try to figure out the lyrics. Of course I have ADHD, and I can only focus on one thing at a time…. 😂
Cannot wait to react to more!
Thank you to Roger for introducing you to Band-Maid. I would have guessed you already had seen them, but who knew? I'll just say, you have opened the floodgates. They may be the best rock group in the world today (I think they are). They are certainly the most creative band since the Beatles, and they are top-tier musicians.
I saw many of the classic rock bands - Purple, Zeppelin, Queen, Santana, many more, all in their heyday. I’ve seen Band-maid three times and their performances stand up to any of those legendary bands.
You are going to get a lot of suggestions. First, a little background on the band:
Saiki Atsumi - Lead vocals Born Feb 8, 1994
MISA - Bass Born Oct 15, 1992
Kanami Tono - Lead guitar, Main composer and arranger Born Sept 28, 1991
Miku Kobato - Rhythm guitar, backing vocal Born Oct 21, 1991
Akane Hirose - Drums Born Dec 14, 1990
Miku was working in a Maid Café after being in an idol group that didn’t break through. She envisoned the idea of a maid-band that plays hard rock and metal. She recruited Kanami, after finding a Kanami guitar cover on line; Kanami then recruited Akane, who recruited MISA. Akane and MISA had been students together at the Tokyo Music Academy. The group decided they needed more vocal “oomph”, and collectively recruited Saiki. Miku didn't know how to play guitar when they started, so Kanami has been teaching her. She's become good so fast that she is really adding to the music mix, and Maidiacs are daring to dream of a dual shred.
The band was struggling early on, and in 2014, even as the label was considering dropping them, they posted the music video for “Thrill” which went viral globally. When they realized what was going on, it gave them the momentum to forge ahead, and they have now done multiple tours of Europe and the U.S. and are building a global fanbase who call themselves the Maidiacs.
They have released seven full albums, as well as several EPs, singles and music videos. They have put out around 170 songs, covering a wide variety of styles and sounds, without any duds. They combine a punk vibe with instrumental virtuosity (two things that are often seen as being incompatible), and have done some amazing progressive-rock songs and ballads with a metal edge to them.
They toured the U.S. in 2022 and sold out 14 cities in less than 48 hours. They followed it up with a 2023 tour which had to be expanded from their original plans. Their fan base skews heavily to actual practicing musicians. Some of those followed the band to multiple dates and documented everything on youtube-some of the footage is hilarious.
I’ve seen them in 2019, 2022 and 2023. Their shows are truly life-reaffirming. So far no announcements of another European tour but it seems likely in 2024.
Band-Maid are that rare band that sound perfect live, even better than in the studio. Everything they have posted from their 10thAnniversary concert in Yokohama is absolute fire-I have bought the DVD and recommend you do too. 33 songs, 3 hours of insanity. The best clip on YT from that concert is “Hate?” th-cam.com/video/yfORoQIqB3E/w-d-xo.html

If you want more background, I suggest you react to this classic interview. It's hilarious, it's insightful, you will learn their names for good, and their cuteness will destroy your brain. Oh, and they are completely nuts. th-cam.com/video/R4PofsQYwn4/w-d-xo.html

Thanks so much for covering Band-Maid! This band does instrumentals too i think you'd enjoy. Check out the song "from now on" by Band-Maid and try that out! ✌️💗
Thank you! can't wait to react to more.
Their talent is so incredible! This is one of the rare songs of theirs that is about a more serious, negative topic. Their lyrics are typically very positive, inspirational, and happy. Loved your reaction!
Best rock n roll band on the planet and the one that made me love music again after decades of apathy.
This is one SMOKING song...A real cruncher!!
Agree!!
Welcome to the Band Maid world!This is really, really, really amazing band! For me they are the best hard rock band in the world!!! Thanks for your reaction
*BAND MAID!*
🤘😀🤘
Thank you for responding to BAND MAID's song, I really enjoyed it. Many of the people who write comments love seeing people who are surprised when they hear BAND MAID songs for the first time, and of course I include them. So, it's your turn next.
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
The 50,000th time ive heard a solo from bassist Misa and the 50,000 time the hair on my neck stood up.
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
@@BuckeyeCreeker1 Oh I know. It seems like youtube tries to discourage a lot of conversations in comment sections. I didn't get a notification for your reply either.
A couple of members from Lovebites was front row for this concert. They tweeted about it and I. One of the videos from the show the spotlight lands on them. There is a lot of connections between the same era J-metal/rock bands.
I Love this! Bands supporting each other.
Great reaction Buckeye! Just don't be like I was for years and let the language barrier deter you from listening to some amazing music coming out of Japan and other parts of Asia. BAND-MAID alone has over 10 years worth of high quality songs to explore. It's very easy to turn closed captioning on or just Google lyrics if you need to.
I will not let the language stop me from diving down the rabbit hole of Band Maid! I was impressed by them and will continue to react to them.
@@BuckeyeCreeker1 Great to hear!! I look forward to seeing more. 😁
and the opposite of Hate? would be their ballad "Daydreaming." Thanks for the great reaction. Looking foward to future J-Rock reactions. Consider me subscribed..
when I go to a concert I want my brain to melt. that bass, guitar and drum shredder part.....brain melted.

Welcome to the world of the Maid 🌎 ❤
This song is actually a one-off with the negative vibes. Band Maid is notoriously fun, energetic and motivational in their songs.
From an SRV fan myself, this group of musicians has reignited hard rock for me. Their songwriting chops are unmatched.
Please don’t sweat the lyrics. They include enough English words and “heys” and “whoas” so everyone can join the party.
130+ songs over 11 years and going on 8 studio albums. Conservatively speaking, no less than 50-60 legitimate rock and roll bangers. Here are a couple of my favorites:
“DICE,” OMV. Hair metal done Maid style. Bass solo hand off to guitar solo, and their signature dynamic emotional shifts
“Moratorium,” live @
Zepp 2018 Unbelievable progressive alt rock with a breakdown solo Jerry Cantrell could’ve written. (Probably wished he had)
“FATE,” live at Zepp or Studio Coast, whichever you prefer. Kinda reminds me of an old Dokken song. English chorus for you to sing along with: . “Jumpin’ so high,
Into the fire!” 🔥
You have done well following the recommendations of Grand Maid Ambassador Sir Roger Chance of the Pigeonhole. Everyone happily joins you on your quest!
Thank you for this! Appreciate you!
They are an incredible band. One of the best I have ever heard. Great reaction. Rock on 🤘
Great reaction and thinks for taking a chance and reacting to Band-Maid, one of the best rock/metal bands in the last 30 years.
Thank you!
I tell you...the best show on Earth is available right now: their 10th anniversary spin-off gig stream on ZAIKO with close-in camera work and amazing sound, like studio. Awesome concert...long archive ticket is gold 👌🔥👊🤘🤘🤘
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
They just finished their 10th Anniversary Tour so plenty more where this came from.
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!
They are awesome, aren't they! 👍😎🥰A minor correction, though - they aren't "solo's", initially Miku was backing on rhythm guitar, and Akane it killing it throughout as backup 😎
They do have truely awesome, solos, too - they ALL have times to shine because they aren't ego driven, but true musicians who support each other - they have at least three instrumentals, too.
TH-cam once again not notifying me of comments!! Sorry I am just now seeing this!

Thank you for this!
🤘Love.. Band Maid!!!!
120 songs and all of them great. Suggest only LIVE material. Domination, Daydreaming, Freedom, Play, Manners with Black Hole, LIVE.
Incidentally, I have a list of Japanese bands that are spectacular: One Ok Rock, Wagakki, Doll$box. head that list, but Band Maid is on top.
I feel I am going to really enjoy this Journey!!
Recommended next B-M songs to react to:
Domination (live)
from now on (instrumental)(MV)
Manners (MV)
THRILL
WARNING
THRILL is interesting because that was BAND-MAID’s first music video (2014) and it literally saved the band from being cut by their record label. It got posted on a Facebook page and got a million views in the next four days. The band thought their website had been hacked!!
THRILL is also fun to view because MIKU is holding a guitar as a prop with basically no idea how to play it! If you look carefully you’ll see that she’s only making a ridiculously feeble effort to play the guitar!
I'd add Rinne to the list just round out the variety of styles. Cheers 🍻

Welcome home Master BUCKEYE CREEKER! Loved your first time reaction. The bass and guitar special conversations in their live concerts, which they call Okuji's (servings), are simply jaw dropping. A little extra something for their Masters and Princesses, which is what they call their fans, for attending their live Okyu-ji's. All keeping with Band-Maid's Japan Maid Cafe theme. PO!🕊 WORLD DOMINATION!!!🤘😆🤘

Saiki wrote the lyrics about her friends cheating boyfriend/husband.
The solos are like a heated argument that escalates to screaming over each other!
Don't You Tell Me official live next please!🤘

Very interesting most of the stuff you find on here I’ve never heard of. I tell you what the stuff you find is different but unique take care of my friend.

@BuckeyeCreeker1 no worries brother.
Thanks for the update. Take care
Funny you mentioned The Warning and Lovebites. 3 of 5 Lovebites members were at this Yokohama show (me too!), and Band Maid will be playing a show with The Warning in Tokyo (possible collab on Band Maid's 9th full album due out early Summer). Btw, Saiki (lead V) wrote the lyrics from a 4th person prospective (Cheater, Victim, Mistress, Saiki).It appears Saiki is a "The Simpsons" fan, and wanted to use Bart's "I Hate you" phrase in a song, and here we have it, Po! Awesome 1st reaction, Po! 🦍🍌
I am still diving down the rabbit hole of The Warning and Lovebites and now Band Maid, Love the shredding of these chicks!!
you have a lot to discover with this band...

Hey boy, your audio is pure! Great reaction. Stick with the programme brother. Peace!
Most of us in the States don't know Japanese but we don't care. Listen to a song first then learn the lyrics later if you like. The trick will be finding a song you don't like. Good luck with that. i hope you do more Band-Maid.
Agree!
😁🥰🤗🤘🕊👀

You know why doesn’t you? Women just kick ass, they have a better handle on melody and focus on the frigging music, especially out Japanese lady metal-heads!
My auto-correct had a field day here but I think you probably get what I wanted to say!

TinyHat-san welcomes you to Band-Maid's Unseen World on the road to World Domination.

Hate as a theme is very unusual for a Band-maid song. Most songs are super positive and encouraging. But they wrote this in defense of a friend whose husband had a very public affair during Covid. While hate might be unusual for Band-maid, defending a friend is very Band-maid.
I cannot wait to dive more into them! more reactions coming!
