This is probably THE new metal band to watch in the next few years. As you saw, they just started in 2019 and are blowing up fast. From the gang vocals, you can see they don't take themselves too seriously-Hazuki even winks. They almost seem to be enjoying a private joke, that goes "Hi, we're a bunch of cute, fun girls and we are going to rip your face off, and you are going to like it.” Nemophila were founded in 2019. They are a supergroup composed of: Mary's Blood guitarist Saki ex-Lipstick vocalist Mayu ex-Disqualia guitarist Hazuki (also plays with Lisa-X) ex-Hölderlins bassist Haraguchi-san, and ex-Soramimi drummer Muratatam (also does other projects) Initially, they were just a side project, co-organized Mayu with some help from Saki. They started off posting metal covers of well-known rock, pop and metal songs. Then they began posting originals, starting with “Oiran” ruclips.net/video/eyb2NtPwcxc/видео.html The viral reaction seems to have convinced them they were onto something potentially big, so they’ve been putting a lot more work into it, including some successful live-streams and an appearance at the annual Japanese female rock festival NAONのYAON. They tend toward hard and heavy, but also do ballads and some pop covers. Drummer Murata Tamu took time off to give birth to her son, and on her return, the rest of the bandmembers gave her a welcome back that resulted in an extremely moving moment captured on live stream: “Life” ruclips.net/video/HFnEYhbEAqg/видео.html After Oiran, others to check (if you haven’t already) include “Raitei”, which means “Thunder” in Japanese, and yes, they bring the thunder: ruclips.net/video/lh-dVLKP314/видео.html Saki is the only one who had been with a breakout band before (Mary’s Blood); Hazuki and Murata-tamu are also considered elite musicians and have worked with a lot of other top artists. Hara-san is the youngest but is clearly a great talent and has been developing in front of our eyes. And of course Mayu is quickly establishing herself as a one of the world’s best metal vocalists.

There is some layering on the vocals, you can hear a harmonized backing vocal, but Mayu's screams are legit. They're a new band, but they're not novices. The guitarist on your right is Saki, best known as primary composer and shred goddess extraordinaire from Mary's Blood and a long list of other projects. Drummer Tamu is a highly regarded and well known session drummer with a very long and impressive resume. She's also a composer and multi-instrumentalist. All the members are very skilled players from other bands, current and former, so they're generally described as a "supergroup". They've released 7 originals on 3 eps. They have more originals which they've performed in livestreams, but they haven't been officially released yet. This (Dissension) is the title track of their third ep, and it's their most aggressive song to date. Oiran (their first) is probably their heaviest, but Dissension's the most aggressive. They're really the only two songs where Mayu screams, it's not something she does all the time, or even most of the time, but it's awesome when she does. They formed as a side project to back up Mayu who was looking to start a new band after leaving her former group (Lipstick), and they got together just in time to be locked down due to a global pandemic, so they took to youtube and started a channel where they uploaded live-in-studio cover songs every Friday, plus an original every now and then, and they kind of blew up. 'Cos they're incredible. Very diverse. I highly recommend you check out "Life" next. It's a brilliant track from their first ep, during which they all turned toward Tamu (drummer) and Mayu sang directly to her. It's very emotional. There are tears. Some of them may be mine. The chemistry between these five band members is off the charts. I will provide the link, it's awesome!! ruclips.net/video/HFnEYhbEAqg/видео.html
This song is 🔥🔥🔥. Nemophila are the real deal. All their songs are fantastic, they play a variety of styles and excel at all of them. Mayu’s vocals are amazing and very distinct. I recommend Oiran or Raitei (mv) next.
Monsters and Life demonstrate their versatility and Mayu’s wonderful vocal melodies and phrasing. Be sure to check out all the in-studio videos they created during the past year, especially Oiran (my favorite), but also all the covers as well (especially Don’t Say Lazy and MAXIMUM THE HORMONE’s Zetsubou Billy).
Japan has lots of great rock/metal bands, including many all-female ones. Aldious are another one worth checking out. Also maybe check out Galneryus if you are interested in a Japanese band that is made up of men for a change. Their guitarist Syu is absolutely insane, but they are all fantastic musicians.
Great choice Thomas. Newish band, but a lot of experience with these musicians, who just clicked when making music together. You might have realised now that there is deep talent and variety in the Japanese rock and metal scenes.
Oh, do their song Raitei, means thunder, and what a thunderous finish, a real banger. Great guitar solos. Fighter such a good hard rocker. Life, a beautiful ballad. Nemophila are so incredible. Mayus voice is sassy and so cool. Saki and Hazuki incredible guitarists. Marata Tamu is my favorite drummer now. Life, you get Mayu giving a beautiful vocal performance and beautiful guitars.,, but yeah, love this band. Nemophila, Band Maid, Lovebites just incredible bands.
This beautiful band is my favorite from this fabulous country Japan ❤️ Extraordinary singer! Drummer Tamu-san totally conquered 😍 is my favorite. i liked your reaction 👍 greetings I suscribe.
Nemophila are a tight knit unit and it seems like a beautiful chemical reaction that they have all been thrown together and just clicked as individuals and a band. Check out there covers as well. I dont think Ive seen a band enjoy playing together so much. Check out there Maximum the Hormone cover, X-japan's Kurenai, or there Motley crew or Iron Maiden covers. Understand that the only member that speaks English is Saki, the lead guitarist generally on the R/H side of the screen in their videos.

Check out their other song Oiran to see her vocal live. It's a live studio performance. Good reaction. Btw please check out We Love Sweets by Hanabie. Another good all female band from Japan.
my heart goes out to u with this damn heat wave. i heard BC is even worse than ontario, but last week, with humidex, southern ontario hit 47c. i work in a greenhouse man 😭 btw thanks for intruducing me to this song, what a banger
Hey buddy! Nice vid, enjoyed this one. Obviously that solo really stuck out to me, awesome! Never heard of them before though. Glad to see you're not baked to a crisp mate, that must have been an intense heat for the 2nd coldest country on earth, right? But dang, that poor little town of Lytton man... Anyways, glad you guys are allright! See you on the next one! 🎼🎶🔊🤘
Hey Roland! Glad you liked this one too! Yes, it was quite brutal. Where I am by the coast wasn't as bad but the interior where Lytton is reached ridiculous temps. So sad and the wildfires are still going. 😔 Alas, it's another experience that we learn from and will hopefully be better prepared if/when it happens again. Hope you have a great weekend mijn vriend! 😁

I love Nemophila ⚡ Now, I second/third Hanabie - We love sweets 🧁🌸🤘🎌
Actually Nemophila is the most amazing band fire and fun🤩💋
This song is 🔥🔥🔥. Nemophila are the real deal. All their songs are fantastic, they play a variety of styles and excel at all of them. Mayu’s vocals are amazing and very distinct. I recommend Oiran or Raitei (mv) next.
This is their heaviest song. You'll be surprised about the variety in their other songs ✌️
Nice! Next one 《oiran》live 2021 please!🌸🔥

Found Jinjer 4 years ago and they have become my favorite band. Nemophila has been the band that has most excited me since I found Jinjer.
You definitely should check their new live "Oiran" 2021
Thank you for the reaction NEMOPHILA has uploaded songs with various sounds on RUclips, so I'd be happy if you could react to other videos as well.
Japan has lots of great rock/metal bands, including many all-female ones. Aldious are another one worth checking out.
Also maybe check out Galneryus if you are interested in a Japanese band that is made up of men for a change. Their guitarist Syu is absolutely insane, but they are all fantastic musicians.
Thank you for reacting to my favorite band! Love these ladies and they can play/sing any genre and are very versatile.
Great choice Thomas. Newish band, but a lot of experience with these musicians, who just clicked when making music together. You might have realised now that there is deep talent and variety in the Japanese rock and metal scenes.
They have quickly become one of my new favorite bands. All their original songs are 🔥! Please check them out.
Tamu and Haraguchi-san.....the Thunder Twins !! 🤘🤘
LOL they are that
And always so happy! "The Laughing Thunder"
@@DavidKAnderson Yeah, I just love the way they crack up whenever they look at each other 🤣
Mayu is one of my favorite vocalist.
Check out "Hanabie" Dating generation or We love sweets her screams/growls are a lot lower in range, and yes another great all female Japanese band
Hanabie are absolutely brutal, but for the first 7 or 8 seconds of "We Love Sweets" you would NEVER expect it...then all hell breaks loose.
Oh, do their song Raitei, means thunder, and what a thunderous finish, a real banger. Great guitar solos. Fighter such a good hard rocker. Life, a beautiful ballad. Nemophila are so incredible. Mayus voice is sassy and so cool. Saki and Hazuki incredible guitarists. Marata Tamu is my favorite drummer now. Life, you get Mayu giving a beautiful vocal performance and beautiful guitars.,, but yeah, love this band. Nemophila, Band Maid, Lovebites just incredible bands.

New band with experienced musicians...sort of a supergroup. We will hear a lot more from them in the future I'm sure! :)
Do really like these guys. So much energy.
Great reaction
Nice review, keep them coming!
The English version of this song is on Spotify, etc. I can't understand her screams in it either. Still love it.
Next song Raitei studio live.....I like the sound of her screaming, like the Tasmanian Devils sound of screaming..... :)

At Last !!!
😎😂😎
Nemophila Rettai next 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
BTW, Nemophila did a great cover of Babymetal's Megitsune.
You should check out some of their covers they play on their YT channel, they're sick!
Another grear song from them is Monsters
Check out their other song Oiran to see her vocal live. It's a live studio performance. Good reaction. Btw please check out We Love Sweets by Hanabie. Another good all female band from Japan.
脳天に直撃されました。

Oof that's brutal. Sorry the heat reached you too. This should happen in Canada 😂

Please react to Crypta from Brazil. Any song will blow you away.
Try “ life “for contrast
👏👏❤️
Live （ NAONのYAON2021） 👍👍👍
Starts good and becomes pop crap.
