    Your remark about the 2 guitar parts meshing is common. Composer Kanami is a pianist. The rhythm guitar is her left hand, and the lead guitar is her right hand on a piano.

    • @glacieractivity
      @glacieractivity 3 месяца назад +7

      This is a perfect description! In the studio Kanami is of course recording her own and Miku's parts (using Miku's guitars for her parts), carefully writing and expanding the complexity for her apprentice as Miku's skills have soared for live performances.
      Edit: Kanami as a classical musician is composing for a quartet + vocals. It is perhaps easiest to hear in their instrumentals or "white-room" versions. There is such a purpose being built into each instrument while still leaving so much space

    • @melvinthinks
      @melvinthinks  3 месяца назад +7

      As a guitar duo, they are dynamite. Kanami we all know is the more technically gifted of the two, but Miku's playing really helps bring it all together. She's almost like a guitar rhythm/bass player imo.

    Classic GNR sound, proggy verses, early 2000’s pop-punk chorus and bridge. And yet it works so well. And when you ask people about just about any Band-Maid song, you will get a dozen different answers to what it reminds them of and none of these people are wrong; I mean how often does the same song remind different people of ACDC, Muse and Paramore and all are valid? And yet all those different people will agree it’s fantastic. They are a genre unto themselves.

    • @melvinthinks
      @melvinthinks  3 месяца назад +2

      I definitely get lots of GnR in some of their riffs (guitar and bas) and especially some of the drum patterns. Which is great to my ears because I love GnR!!!

    Take away the outfits. Take away the vocals. Take away an audience to participate, and you’ll still have a brilliant song.
    You’ve already noticed this and you’re in for some real surprises and downright joy with some of the material ahead of you.
    “Puzzle,” official live. What I describe as “cinematic rock.” You like guitars playing different and unexpected parts that seamlessly move together? Yeah. This one. Brave enough for a double episode? Follow this with the live acoustic. Saiki and Kanami on two stools. One guitarist. One heart wrenching vocalist.
    “Daydreaming,” OMV. Curious about their depth or variety? Nostalgic for alt rock ballads? Here you go.
    “Moratorium,” LIVE. Like the catchy riffs? Kanami gives them away like candy. After this song, you’ll understand why she is called “The Riff Goddess”
    Enjoy your journey! 🚀

    Don't worry, it took me a while before I finally checked out Band-Maid and I'm glad I did. Yeah they had the image makes you think, "can they even play? I'm sick of kawaii high-pitched vocals". Well I don't know about you, but that's what I was thinking before clicking on the official live video of Real Existence. Loved the singer's voice straight away. By the time I listened to Moratoriam I was completely sold.

Thrill, for example, is a solid and kick ass rock song. Most bands would be chuffed to write something like that.

    Band Maid and The Warning played a show together in Japan almost 2 weeks ago. The Warning went over there a week or so earlier. The result was a new song called "Show Them", a collab between the 2 bands, to be included on the upcoming Band Maid album. The 2 bands played it live at that show, all 8 ladies on stage, 3 guitars, 2 basses, 2 drum kits, and vocals from both Saiki and Dany. Ther is a 30 second or so teaser clip on the Band Maid socials that is ok to react to.
    DO NOT react to the fan cam footage of the entire song, other reactors that did, got a COPYWRITE STRIKE, as the full song has not been officially released yet.
    Next from Band Maid? Highly recommend the official live for the song "Hate?"

    • @melvinthinks
      @melvinthinks  3 месяца назад +1

      I've had "Hate" on my list amongst many others, so only a matter of time. Actually, the Dice/Hate Live combo performance was highly recommended, but I want to hear the tracks in isolation. That is absolutely MEGA about the the TW colab. I won't be rushing to review it though, because 100,000 other people will and you just get lost in the RUclips algorithm trend. I'm not big enough a channel to bump over people, so I think I need to be fashionably late to the party as it currently stands 🎉🎊🎈

      Definitely wait on "Show Them" until after it's officially released, don't want to get a strike.

      Nah - I wouldn't say that. Band-Maid are more of a hard rock/classic rock band imo, whereas TW are more modern, straight up, Muse-y/RATM riffs with massive anthemic choruses. Kanami as a lead player is technically much better than Dany so Band-Maid have a lot more solos vs TW too.
