Their style is metal, metalcore, punk, rap, pop, hard rock, pop-punk, prog and some other stuff that hasn't been invented yet. One of the most diverse of the Japanese bands. This is their first release since their other guitarist left around Easter, but they've been playing plenty of gigs in the meantime. Their covers are legendary. Top recommendations: Foo Fighters - 'Walk' (Foos are Mayu the singer's favourite band); Iron Maiden - 'Aces High'; Journey - 'Separate Ways'; Babymetal - 'Megitsune'; Limp Bizkit - 'Stuck'; System of a Down - 'Sugar' and for total contrast NiziU - 'Make You Happy'. There is nothing this band can't do - and the Singer, Mayu, and the drummer, Tamu, do it while raising their children. The guitarist, Hazuki, also plays in the band KOIAI with the incredible Li-sa-X, and bass player Hara-chan also plays with a couple of other acts. Where the hell they find the time and energy I have no idea.
Absolutely dig in to their covers! They’ve done a little bit of everything cover wise. As far as originals go, check out their live video of ZEN on their own channel to see one of their heaviest songs

Nemophila is one of the best in Japan. All the members used to be part of other bands before Nemophila was formed in 2019. I've listened to Babymetal a lot recently but these girls are more my cup of tea. Brutal vocals mixed with clean. Crunching guitar, meaty bass licks and thunderous drums. What's not to love. Whatever you are going to react to from Nemophila next doesn't matter. It's all good stuff. They cover so many different genres of metal and rock, but Nemophila style. Looking forward to the next one. Rock on dude.🤘 If you are going to look at their covers a good idea, which will be a two-fer, is to react to Megitsune by Babymetal and Nemophila's version in the same reaction. That way you can continue in your Japanese metal journey with both artists.
Theyve become one of my favorite bands as of late theyre insanely talented. For another great song you cant go wrong with OSKR, Rise, or Dissension. As far as covers they absolutely killed Master of Puppets!
I love the covers of Nemophila! Shows all the possibilities of Nemophila, anything is possible at any time, no matter what style, whether covers or originals, musically they can do anything anyway. It's just not a garage band, rather the complete opposite
This is their style for the most part but they have a few songs that are different, hard to put a label on them. I love the heavy metal versus then the soaring chorus'. This is the first song I have heard with a song written for the 4 members and damn, it is tied with Ama - Te - Ras for my favorite.
Mayu, the singer of Nemophila, is a fan of the Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl's vocal style. She has a similar screaming technique, with the caveat that she is a woman, so her voice is higher.
My favourite covers are when they cover japanese bands: Babymetal, Maximum the Hormone, Loudness, Kishidan, Rottengraffty. And Iron Maiden is great too.
"NEMOPHILA" Neh mo fee la (small five petaled flower native the North America, but quite popular in Japan)!!!!! Great song (G.O.D: Groundbreakers of Destiny) Great reaction!!!!! Check out the band "FATE GEAR" (Sky Pirates)!!!!! I think you will enjoy them!!!!! Thank you for what you do!!!!!
Just a heads up for your thumbnail pic.. They are now a 4 piece group. Guitarist Saki left the group to go solo, right around the beginning of April. The G.O.D. is the first new song by the 4 members, also there are remixes of old songs with "Evolution version" in the title is just the 4.
You could try 'Passcode' or 'Broken by the scream' for more Hanabie like stuff. Mindset or I wish I by 'Gacharic Spin's (who have every genre you can think of in any given song). One of my favourite songs is 'tale my chance' by Doll$box (a gacharic spin side project from 10 years ago). Neemo filla 😁
Excellent band, and loved the reaction - if you're going to do their cover of Sugar by SOAD, then you need to look at their Free Live RUclips mini-concert at: ruclips.net/video/NUOFriPTWLA/видео.html. It's far superior (in my opinion) to the single they have on their channel, mostly because, for whatever reason, they beep out the swear words. And we all know that Serj has some salty language in SOAD songs. Since the Free Live has 5 songs on it, you'll probably want to just hone in on System of a Down between 8:54 and 11:36. The other songs they do (and all are done very well), in case you're interested are: Revive (0:00 to 3:14), Rise (3:15 to 6:44 - Mayu does yell the band name at the end, so you can hear how the band pronounces their name), Dissension (13:18 to 17:25), and Oiran (17:26 to 22:22). All are exceedingly good representations of their live capability - the sound is very stripped down with minimal backing tracks, and really shows how dynamic and musically gifted they are as a band, all while truly enjoying themselves. I would encourage you to give it a listen.
My two cents on the pronunciation: what you heard on Google is the pronunciation of the nemophila flower. The band pronounces their name Neh-moe-fee-la. There are videos on their YT channel where they introduce themselves that way. The "American" pronunciation is Nee-moe-fee-la. I have the same "problem" with Lovebites and Nemophila. Nemophila is my favorite by a hair. I wish all my problems were of this nature.
I pronounce it like your #2 option. The third one sounds like that "manah manah" song from The Muppets... silly song, funny skit, but a very different thing.
You can not put them in a Box style wise try zen next for super heavy and Adabana for metal and Style for some raping yes you heard correct and its most defiantly no 2 i have been following them from the start .
Number 2. (Some Americans say number 3.) NEMOPHILA mix and match many different styles. Try ADABANA (OMV) and MONSTERS. Their covers of Japanese songs are the best. Try ONE NIGHT CARNIVAL (KISHIDAN), GOLDEN GRAFFTY (ROTTENGRAFFTY), and DON’T SAY LAZY (K-ON)
Amazing track. Tamu's drums and Hazuki's amazing riff and of course mayu. One of their best tracks. As for covers, they have a lot of great ones. From what you mentioned, it's definitely SOAD. There are two versions and I recommend the live version from the stream. Nemo played Sugar at a concert and this track suits them perfectly ruclips.net/user/shorts40QLOTdUHUg. Here's the link to the stream (Sugar is from 8:58): 【NEMOPHILA】 You Tube FREE LIVE 2023 ruclips.net/video/NUOFriPTWLA/видео.html Don't worry about the pronunciation, just watch: NEMOPHILA / OIRAN [Official Live Video] ruclips.net/video/19VQ9tkWksQ/видео.html (Keiko Terada clearly announces them) Also, this video is worth watching. Oiran is their first single, it's absolutely their signature track. The performance comes from a concert without an audience (COVID), streamed. It's a powerful storm.. of hair😉
The scientific name for the blue and white flower so it’s Neh- mofeela. No finding Nemo either🎣😂 Mayu even said Neemofila during a concert then laughed and said to Saki Neemofila Americano. Then said Neh-mophila. If you do covers they are all good for me except the Pantera, Bon Jovi and Pink efforts. Their 2024 Loudness cover is great. Old school Japanese metal.
Their style is metal, metalcore, punk, rap, pop, hard rock, pop-punk, prog and some other stuff that hasn't been invented yet. One of the most diverse of the Japanese bands.

G.O.D. (Groundbreakers of Destiny) Lyrics
Like waking up in a heap of junk
Do I still have strength, or have I sunk? oh
God!
Put me out of my misery!
How long did I keep running?
There's no answer yet
Clasp one's injured hands, Watching it bleed
I don't wanna live for anyone anymore
Is what you've been taught right?
Don't judge me by the average!
God, if you are there, save me
世情に消されそうなこの声が
(This voice that seems to be drowned out by society's circumstances)
I learn to be free
I find my life, find my life, I'm alive
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
I find my life, find my life, I'm alive
I've had enough of this crap
many times
What the hell is left for me?
It's revolting!!
Your pleasure is someone else's sacrifice
That's how crazy this world is
But it will choke you one day
Crawl and grab hold of it!
Oh! Take action!
Always from now on!
Hey, God, can you show me how?
理想に溺れそうなこの日々も
(Even these days when I feel like I'm drowning in ideals)
It's not in vain now
I regret my life, I regret my life, I'm alive
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
I regret my life, I regret my life, I'm alive
Huh? I thought there was a God?
You're not here when I need your help
I can't keep quiet any longer
I gotta break it!
God
描くその向こうへ
傷つきながらも流した涙は
糧となって
明日も生きてく自信となるよ
(Beyond the drawing
The tears I shed even though I was hurt
become sustenance
It will give me the confidence to live tomorrow as well.)
Whoa, whoa
Whoa
I sing my life, sing my life, I'm alive
Whoa, whoa (oh)
Whoa (whoa)
I sing my life, sing my life, I'm alive

One of my absolute favorite bands. Really hope to see them when they come back to the US east coast.
Nemophila is one of the best in Japan. All the members used to be part of other bands before Nemophila was formed in 2019. I've listened to Babymetal a lot recently but these girls are more my cup of tea. Brutal vocals mixed with clean. Crunching guitar, meaty bass licks and thunderous drums. What's not to love.

They play whatever they wanna play and killed it. Magical band, amazing musicians 🔥❤️ Most promising metalband out there. Lovin Nemophila ❤️
Nemophila does every stye
Theyve become one of my favorite bands as of late theyre insanely talented. For another great song you cant go wrong with OSKR, Rise, or Dissension. As far as covers they absolutely killed Master of Puppets!
Hoping this one shows up! See my large comment posted earlier - it should have come with this!
Wow!! This is so generous! For a channel that can’t be monetised this is incredible.
Great reaction bro :) NEMOPHILA is Amazing metal band from Japan :D
I love the covers of Nemophila! Shows all the possibilities of Nemophila, anything is possible at any time, no matter what style, whether covers or originals, musically they can do anything anyway. It's just not a garage band, rather the complete opposite
…and..They are even heavier live. Check out Oiran or Zen Official Lives. Their liveshows nowadays are absolute hellfest..
GOD mode nemo!🔥🔥🔥
i recommend《oiran》live next!🤘🏻🌸🤘🏻
They have become my favorite band.Excellent, tight musicians and fantastic compositions.
I should say Nemophila is my favorite heavy metal band period.
Nemo-feel-ah They lost a member earlier this year and totally LEVELED UP! So far my song of the year. 🎸🤘
This is their style for the most part but they have a few songs that are different, hard to put a label on them. I love the heavy metal versus then the soaring chorus'.

Creative band, Best of Best
"NEMOPHILA" Neh mo fee la (small five petaled flower native the North America, but quite popular in Japan)!!!!! Great song (G.O.D: Groundbreakers of Destiny) Great reaction!!!!! Check out the band "FATE GEAR" (Sky Pirates)!!!!! I think you will enjoy them!!!!! Thank you for what you do!!!!!
They can BOTH be your favorite.
This one really gave me Faith No More vibes in the hard bits.
Its number 2. Neh Moe Fill Ahh
are you ABSOLUTELY sure it's not 3? :D
@@HeadbangersGuild lol
They already have a tribute band called Nemothera.
Number 2
ok so I had it right all along!
@@HeadbangersGuild :)
Nemophila is my Japanese heavy metal by far.
Haraguchi-san Haraguchi-san Haraguchi-san!
try phonetically if not sure or watch their live of the song Oiran 2021 and hear the introduction...some pronounce it | filia | shoking
I love that you fell for japanese metal the same I did but you a lot faster lol
Awesome reaction!! Nemophila. Listen to AMA-TE-RAS. It is my best Nemophila
It's about time you do some Maximum the Hormone bro, best metal band from Japan
Number 2 for the band. Pronunciation 3 is the American pronunciation of the flower
haha oh really?
Just a heads up for your thumbnail pic.. They are now a 4 piece group. Guitarist Saki left the group to go solo, right around the beginning of April. The G.O.D. is the first new song by the 4 members, also there are remixes of old songs with "Evolution version" in the title is just the 4.
Mayu pronounces it 'neh-mo-fee-la' based on her native language...so #2
You could try 'Passcode' or 'Broken by the scream' for more Hanabie like stuff. Mindset or I wish I by 'Gacharic Spin's (who have every genre you can think of in any given song). One of my favourite songs is 'tale my chance' by Doll$box (a gacharic spin side project from 10 years ago). Neemo filla 😁
Of the 3 pronunciations I usually go with "Holy sh*t, this is great"

2 is how you say greatest band ever
The flower is actually pronounced the 3rd way, but the Band pronounce it your way.
Mayu is the greatest vocalist on the planet right now.
#1
A7X and Mushroomhead,,, 🤘🤘🤘
You can not put them in a Box style wise try zen next for super heavy and Adabana for metal and Style for some raping yes you heard correct and its most defiantly no 2 i have been following them from the start .
Number 2. (Some Americans say number 3.)
NEMOPHILA mix and match many different styles. Try ADABANA (OMV) and MONSTERS.
Their covers of Japanese songs are the best. Try ONE NIGHT CARNIVAL (KISHIDAN), GOLDEN GRAFFTY (ROTTENGRAFFTY), and DON’T SAY LAZY (K-ON)
Amazing track. Tamu's drums and Hazuki's amazing riff and of course mayu. One of their best tracks.
As for covers, they have a lot of great ones. From what you mentioned, it's definitely SOAD. There are two versions and I recommend the live version from the stream. Nemo played Sugar at a concert and this track suits them perfectly ruclips.net/user/shorts40QLOTdUHUg.

Don't worry about the pronunciation, just watch: NEMOPHILA / OIRAN [Official Live Video] ruclips.net/video/19VQ9tkWksQ/видео.html (Keiko Terada clearly announces them) Also, this video is worth watching. Oiran is their first single, it's absolutely their signature track. The performance comes from a concert without an audience (COVID), streamed. It's a powerful storm.. of hair😉

Then said Neh-mophila. If you do covers they are all good for me except the Pantera, Bon Jovi and Pink efforts. Their 2024 Loudness cover is great. Old school Japanese metal.
Super thanks isn't showing up on the comments for some reason, but if it doesn't show up, just FYI, it was from me....
Oh wow thank you! It’s not showing anything yet my end either… but that is super kind of you!
I pronounce it NEH-MOH-FEE-LAH but that's just me.
I am torn on this band I love the clean vocals she is the best I heard in such a long time but I hate the screams
listen to their song Odyssey
