    Per usual, I was a dumb, foolish man for waiting as long as I did to check these three out.
    On top of being a wildly talented band, Sokoninaru posts full playthroughs of their guitar and bass tracks! I think I'm in love ^_^
    Please support the original release!

    I really love this band, they are amazing, if you want to check more of them I can suggest Saitei and Tenohira de Odoru

    If you enjoy Sokoninaru, you might enjoy Ling Tosite Sigure, since covering their songs is how the band started out. "Abnormalize" or "Telecastic Fake Show" are good songs to start with probably? Sokoninaru have definitely found their own sound a long time ago though!
    If you want more bass tapping, check out the Taiwanese band Elephant Gym. Any live performance of "Finger" is excellent, and their live performance of "Spring Rain" on their channel is a personal favourite. "Witches" is a newer song with arguably even more impressive bass though. They're also touring the US later this year iirc.

    I like how they lean into the technical progressive stuff, without going too overboard, just as u described i think they balance well their agression on the insturments with soft vocal melodies and they also introduce easier to follow chorus, while still changing tweaking them and keeping it interesting. While a lot of their older stuff is my favourite, i think they are getting really good at finding that balance with every new release. As many people mentioned, Misaki was initially a guitar playing thats why u will find a lot of picking techniques and guitarist mannerisms in her playing.

    Regarding Misaki's playing, I believe she got her thumb-tapping technique from Shunsuke Matsumoto from Cö Shu Nie, who is a very unique and remarkable bassist:
    ruclips.net/video/ksAJIsl047w/видео.html
    And note that Misaki is actually a guitarist (she started playing bass just to join Sokoninaru), hence her very "guitarry" style. (I think she has the most badarse bass tone since Hooky.)
    Regarding the vocal melodies: their songs basically have a core of a melodic J-rock song with layers upon layers of detail added to the instrumentation... so the vocal melody floats over all the chaos and keeps things together (and makes the music more accessible).
    BTW, note that all the music is written by Juko, yet the arrangements are very well-balanced between the three instruments.
    And yes, the production is excellent, as are the music videos. Truly top notch.
    Also, note that Zettaiteki Sanpunkan has a beat going on the hi-hats throughout, so at the end, when the double-bass kicks in, Shiyu uses his left hand to open and close the hi-hats and keep the beat going (since his feet are busy with the bass pedals). You can see it in the live video: ruclips.net/video/KxVn7ubo4FQ/видео.html

      There is some WILD lead bass playing in that first link.

      ​@@YoMotain one of their part switch videos where they swap instruments, there is a moment when Juko teaches Misaki the guitar tapping part and she mimics his movements and he laughs immediately because she is using her thumb, like even he wasn't ready for it. I always remember that when seeing her tap.

      @@YoMota Yes, "wild" is the only way to describe his playing style... these days he wears a glove on his left hand while playing, probably due to his fondness for sliding his fingers up and down the strings: ruclips.net/video/vy56AEu-WVM/видео.html

    My favorite three piece band. They very talented, and if you interested, there are a live performance of two song you react here. For me the bassist, Misaki, is the Japanese most talented female bassist. Top of that all three of them singing and do harmony. React more of them, whatever song you choose is gonna be delightful

    New nemophila with their new "power trio plus one" lineup. One of the best things they've done. I actually prefer them without the powermetal cliché twin leads. Released a couple of days ago.

    I was wondering what your reaction would be when listening to them. Kinda blows me away with every song.

  • @Oedwak
    @Oedwak Месяц назад +1

    They have a playlist of covers on their channel with 104 videos currently (I had to check - it keeps growing). Mostly just three of them in a tiny studio room jamming out. I learned a lot going through that list and learning about the originals they were covering as well. Highly recommend for something different just for fun. And yes - I made it to that point in the video.

    Duuuude!! Finally!! Ive been waiting for your reaction to Sokoninaru! They’re so good!! I got to see them live in Osaka last december and I swear they nailed every single note, tempo change, special pedal effect and vocal harmony (The three of them bc the current drummer also sings now!) I couldnt believe what I was seeing tbh! 🥰🤘🏼

    • @YoMota

    Very enjoyable and insightful reaction. You got most of what makes them great on a first listen. It took me a lot longer but I now love everything about them. Hope you keep following them. Thanks!

      I can see them being an acquired taste for some. I get that. Regardless, they are an impressive group.

  • @stevekane4922
    @stevekane4922 Месяц назад +2

    Sokoninaru are my second favourite band.
    They do it all live believe in or not.
    I'm sure you know bandmaid and their extremely broad range of styles but left to her own devices without the need to please kanami produces this kind of thing with similar vocal courage often not fan favourites.
    For example try "Bandmaid corallium live at the eggman". Wonderful breakneck speed harmonies and structure that seems to be knitted.

    • @stevekane4922

      Misaki frequently makes it into top five Japanese female bassists not far below the inevitable MISA.

    I don't think I'd specifically recommended them, but I was curious what'd happen when you finally got round to checking Sokoninaru out. I had a similar situation where I'd known of them by reputation, but took ages to find the time to give them a proper listen and regretted the delay. They really don't disappoint and also their dynamic control is just as tight in live footage/performances. Plus you've still not properly seen anything with the current drummer, who also sings harmonies whilst playing.

    • @stevekane4922
      @stevekane4922 Месяц назад

    • @YoMota

      Probably the most requested band that I hadn't listened to. They left an impression so I'll have to do more on them soon.

    You choose a couple of their tamer songs I see LOL. They also have a bunch of covers on their channel.

  • @guybrushthreepwood1519
    @guybrushthreepwood1519 Месяц назад

    I was halfway through typing that they do have playthrough and commentary videos, when it just came up XD
    But yeah, they are at the same time quite progressive and also very melodic. A mixture i really love.
    And they do have a very distinctive sound, they did many, *many* covers, and they all sound quite Sokoninaru-esque. Even the Anime covers like WE ARE! or Zankoku na Tenshi no te-ze, one of the few bands to even have a really good X-Japan Kurenai cover.
    That said, I did recommend these guys, and I managed to get to the end of your video.
    There's more to be said, obviously, but you did sum it up pretty well, at least I think so. They do have a lot of fun, even in their playthrough/commentary videos they goof around a lot, and the parts-change series is just hilarious, watching their drummer trying to play the bass is hilarious, even if one doesn't understand what they're talking about.

    • @YoMota
      @YoMota  Месяц назад

      I did around an hour of commentary but I always end up cutting a lot due to time. I had a whole riff about their vocal harmonies, etc...
      I like them so I'm sure I'll get to them again.

    Right to 11, you say? Not in these two songs ;) But I know what you mean, so yah, not wrong.
    Misaki was initially a guitar player and responded to Juko seeking a bassist. I don't know how proficient she was with bass at that time, but from the interview, it sounded like she didn't play it at all until then. Now she barely knows how to play guitar anymore lol. They had a few position-switch videos, where Juko played drums and Misaki guitar.
