*BAND-MAID* a day makes the arm pain go away. 😜 😜
I’ve watched other reviewers of bandmaid. Many of stated how BM has inspired them to get back into playing or writing musicians . We are so blessed to have this band in our lives.
Yeah, BAND-MAID doing BAND-MAID things, and sounding just like BAND-MAID🤘🕊
Yeah! Go listen to it again! And then again and again and again and again... 😎
Get well soon and Stay Metal! 🤘🖤
This is one of the best instrumental songs ever, imho! I'm 66 and have listened to a lot of music over the years and Band Maid is a breath of fresh air for the rocking part of my heart! Band Maid is their own genre! Our Rock Never Dies, Ever! Forever! That about covers it, Po!
"Band-Maid sounds like Band-Maid". A phrase that a lot of B-M reactors should pay attention to. Sure, there are influences, but in the end, they have their own style and sound (backed up by significant talent and support).
Yes I agree ssooooo much oh they sound like this oh they sound like that band no that's band maid it's there sound they created it they are the living legends known as band maid be well
Or as another reactor said, "Band-maid doing Band-maid things."
@@Darth.Fluffy That's a Chase Carneson expression.
@@skanderfish3641 . That's the man.
I love when people get to the point when talking about BAND-MAID and theres nothing left to be said lol.
BAND-MAID is fantastic and deserves even more recognition than they get.
Were all so fortunate to have BAND-MAID around keeping rock alive!
Feel the same, nothing else more for me to say at all...all well said.
You should buy a ticket for the upcoming virtual music festival splendour XR. Band-maid is in the line-up.
@@lurkmerchant yup already saw that!
Told ya Ryan. The Band-Maid smile gives it away. You're a Maidiac now. What a hard working band to be able to pull that off live. Sugoi. Soften the pain just a bit? BAND-MAID!!!! Every time. Get well soon. Peace.
"I'm just going to watch whatever I want to watch from them, cuz I know it will be freaking cool" LMAO! Love it! Yeah really can't go wrong. They really have no bad songs. Right on! Btw, love that intro piece you did. Awesome guitar play. 🤘
Thank you!
I'm a 66 year old bassist/percussionist and since discovering both NIGHTWISH and Band Maid 2 and a half years ago, they have become my 2 favorite bands for different reasons. The similarities are the fact they both kick ass! Love your reactions, Ryan....hope you can jam soon! Thanks...👍🏻🥁🎙🎸🎛🎵🎶
Thank you!
Let me guess... it was Misa! I'm a bassist as well and man, she's one if the most active bass players I've ever heard! I'll be honest, I can't keep up with her. She doesn't stop!
Band Maid once again showing the bands from the west how to ROCK!! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
Truth!
I wish more bands would do instrumentals. It's a great way to showcase the talent, and also gives the singer a nice break live lol.
Your smile says it ALL! Another songwriting masterpiece from Kanami... She is such a great composer!!! Greetings from Germany
Greetings from Indiana USA
Band Maid for hard rock. Lovebites for power heavy metal. Never goes wrong. Great reaction... 👍
Love when you said, they sound like Band Maid! Period.
"The sound like Band Maid. They f**ckin' sound like Band Maid." You hit the nail on the head. They remind of what rock used to be (Same with Nightwish and metal). It is why I love those bands so much. Enjoyed man, see you soon. (Also, loved hearing ya play a bit at the start, hope to see you playing gain soon)
Yeah thanks, man!
The smile on your face says it all. Listening to any song from them just makes me smile and forget about all my stresses in life. Best rock band on the planet!
I have been a fan for several years now - long enough to remember the "are they really playing their instruments?" comments. Laughable today and thankfully put to rest in the best way possible through their awesome live videos and concerts.
Someone finally says it...Band Maid sound like Band Maid. Thank you Ryan.
I really like watching people fall in love with this band.
Up next Play(live) an instrumental that became a full song, and Puzzle (live - not on RUclips) a song that truly shows how much of a guitar god Kanami is.
For studio production, checkout Blooming and Warning.
This band is single handily waking the Rock gods that have been asleep in so many of us .
KEEPING ROCK HOT! Thank you Band-Maid!!
We're all becoming MAIDIACS! 🤣
I love coming back to watch this! It always makes grin like a loon!
Mission accomplished!
As soon as I saw you were doing this...... I smiled❤😎and subbed ! Greetings. P.S. Your reaction was so good, I'm going to watch it again !
The thing I like most about Band-Maid is that they always make me smile :)
I swear they are like a drug for me. If I don't get a good dose daily, I'm not fun to be around
Kanamincho! ...and, all bow down to Little Hat-san...discarded by MISA, picked up by Akane, and now preserved as a Holy Relic.
Cult of the Holy Hat! Everyone bow to the Hat! Everyone LISTEN to the First Dicipel MISA And Akane!!!!!
@@killinjoke2517 The Tiny Hat...tossed aside by MISA, taken up by Akane, then cast aside again...on its way to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
The crazy thing is, how much they’ve progressed as a band since this performance. It’s a great performance and they still have gotten better.
Yup band-maid and nightwish are the cream of rock, metal and everything inbetween 🤘🤘
I knew of Band-Maid, but the language barrier and their outfits caused me to ignore them for years. What an idiot I was. I finally gave them a chance and watched a reaction to Dice and I never turned back. They basically saved the past year and a half for me. They just make me happy, plain and simple. Enjoy your Band-Maid journey.
I feel ya on that. I did the same thing
It was BAND-MAID, and Kanami in particular, that finally caused me to actually begin learning the guitar after about 45 years of wanting to play. I've been playing about five months now and I'm learning B.O.C.'s "(Don't Fear) The Reaper," although it will be a the radio version without Buck Dharma's amazing solo. It's also Kanami's fault that I had to buy a PRS. I couldn't be happier with the guitar or this band. Every day before I pick up my guitar I listen to two random songs from two specific bands for motivation and inspiration. Those bands are this one, BAND-MAID and the other is Lovebites. Sometimes, I throw some Mary's Blood into the mix as well as Saki is the best provider of guitar motivation that I know. Thank you for reacting to these amazing ladies.
That's great!
Same. Got my guitar last week.
Band Maid make People happy and their music is brillant. Pure rock. As me, lot of People loves music again cause Band Maid💖
Band Maid is another awesomely skilled band coming out of Japan. So talented, and I really enjoy them. I've already purchased 3 of their albums this year.
That tapping line is godly
On-Set is music for the soul!!!
Ryan, I'm just like you about new music. In the past, I rarely listened to music without lyrics in English, because I found it hard for me to get emotionally attached to the song, since I couldn't follow along with the lyrics. But 2021 has been a revelation, I discovered NightWish, and thru NW fan comments and some YT reactors I learned about and now love other bands like Band Maid, Suite Clarity, Scandal, The Warning, Aryeon, Passcode, Spiritbox, Nemophilia and a few others I'm forgetting at the moment. I would guess I've purchased over 25 new album downloads this year alone just because I discovered these bands thru RUclips. So awesome to have so much great new music to jam out to.
Certain parts of this instrumental remind me of old school rock, which I love. The lead guitarist, Kanami, is the composer of Band-Maid's songs. She has sited several inspirations such as Santana and Eddie Van Halen. After EVH passed away, she penned a goodbye letter on Twitter, I believe, stating how much his music meant to her, especially his tapping prowess.
You were talking about bass tone in another reaction...I knew you needed this MISA solo :-) This, being a different concert to Freedom/ Domination, mixed more like studio sound so Kanami guitar more clear. I've got the (rare) studio recording of this and you're pushed to tell the difference...this live is my preferred listen...only by a gnats b*****k.
They have two other equally good released instrumentals. Without Holding Back is from their most recent album, but is not on the RUclips version of the album. Don't Be Long (on Spotify) has this cool lead riff where the kick drum is integrated into the melody of the riff, which I find incredibly cool. One of the things I love about this band is how hard they work to really integrate all the instruments (including vocals) together cohesively.
As much as I love these, especially Onset and Without holding back, the Giovanni instrumental has the 1st place on my personal list firmly in its grip. Its just so good. Testament to how good they are, that they can just cut out the vocals of a song and it becomes an instrumental masterpiece.
I'll add Giovanni (instrumental version) to the list. Everything else you said I agree 100%.
*-What are we?
-MAIDIACS!
-And how many music we want from B-M?
-ALL OF IT!*
@@yerayortiz7285 No! Next stop must be "Honey" or "Rinne"! Two of their best songs.
@@Medley3000 Choose Me hooked me to the band and it's my fav till now but Rinne and Dice are probably the ones that made me realize I found something special. I love drums and Akane gave me an extra dose on Rinne my god. Also Saiki shows again her wide range, I love me some Reincarnation. Honey I think I only heard it once so I don't have it that fresh in my mind. Any links would be nice of you to share 🤘🕊️
@@yerayortiz7285 Honey is the most underrated song of them because it was a bonus track. But if you love Akanes work listen to the 2nd half of the song. It is magnificent. \m/
I just can't get enough of these girls. All 5 of them just bring it.
Great reaction, so good..... sooooo gooooood ): The mix on this live concert (ZEPP Tokyo 2018) was perfect, sadly, a lot of the videos that used to be on their channel have been removed, but are still available from other sources (some random fan will post a link to more). The last couple of live videos released on their channel have better mixes with the guitars are more front.
Cool reaction Ryan.. Liked the little intro you did, and looking forward to hearing more when your arm is better.. This song is freaking awesome the freaky lead after the bass solo is way cool.. So many more to do, I will be along for the ride.. You have to do Play live... Smokin bass solo and everything else... Well as you say... It's Band Maid.. Best wishes from France..
good to see you do "Saiki's pee break" such an amazing instumental.. Band-Maid have reinvigorated my love of music since finding them 4-5 years ago hope the elbow heals fast and you can get back on the guitar
Without holding back is another instrumental where The Maids just show just how good they are...again. One big intricate jam session with a difference.
Listening to BAND-MAID songs just makes me smile to be honest.
Same here!
The first time I heard this song, I couldn't get it out of my head, it's incredibly good. In my top five of Band Maid songs. Greetings from Argentina.
Greetings from Indiana, USA
I will say it again. These five young women's love of music has given us one of the greatest bands of this age...or for that matter ever.
Maybe you would dig the Maid's instrumental "Don't be long" . The house of Blues in Dallas has a very good version of this .
Find Puzzle, it’s epic! Unfortunately YT took it down together with Moratorium.
You have to realize one thing, Band-Maid plays somewhere between 20-24 set list with a couple of ballads in between, the energy is so electrifying and your ears will ring! They play for at least two to two and a half hours! How many bands do you know do that! and furthermore, keep the same intensity around the 20th song? Not much! See them live!
Band-Maid reminds me of Rush. Their sound/tone and arrangements are unique.
Absolutely
All BAND-MAID want is to rule the world. In exchange for world domination they offer happiness and inspiration.
After watching your reaction it would seem Miku has converted another follower and is well on her way to conquering the globe. Kurrupo!
I'm loving your Band Maid reactions. Could you please check out another incredible band from Japan called "Unlucky Morpheus"? I'd recommend you to check out "Change of Generation" (live), or "Knight of Sword" (live), two of my favorites by them.
I get bored with instrumentals often, but this is fully featured song without singing.
Your own music sounds nice, need to check it out.
Even when I've listened to some of Band Maid's slower or more J-pop oriented songs, and perhaps began to think the song might not be my cup of tea, something unexpected always happens that moves the song in an entirely different direction and I'm blown away yet again. Their hard rock essence always seems to comes through, even just for a brief moment in some songs. Their sound is unique and they'e done more to reignite my love of rock music than any band over the last 30 or 40 years.
Watch "Puzzle" Live version and acoustic Kanami shines
Saiki too!
@@markyg236 Puzzle and Anemone live always make me cry and I only understand a tiny bit of Japanese. They just sound so beautiful and Saiki conveys emotion so well; she was obviously affected by the lyrics of Anemone.
So good, so good.
Mincho's hammer-on/pull-offs are beautiful... as is she.
This is the track that hooks you hard!!!!
The YT algorithm suggests that he should listen to BAND-MAID. But he keeps looking at the thumbnail and ignoring it. 'Pretty Japanese girls in maid outfits? You've got to be kidding me, YT". But one day, he clicks on it for some reason. And he exclaims. "Oh, my God!". This is the experience of many fans.
Japan is now a metal superpower. Thanks to ladies like these.
I strongly recommend another Japanese female band: "Lovebites" They are more Iron Maiden than Iron Maiden.
I had a look at Ryan's songs on Spotify and can recommend checking them out...the dude can sing :-)
Thank you got taking the time and the kind words👍🤘🤘❤
I know it's been said but you really won't find a bad song, they are incredible.
This song is known in Maidiac circles as the Saiki Pee Break song, just sayin!
Love Band-Maid. Did you do Blooming yet? BTW, check out Steve Vai's video Knappsack - his arm is in a sling just like yours and plays the entire song one-handed.
I saw him play that... sheesh! I've been noodling around, trust me.
I like the guitar sound and will be checking your stuff out. Love me some BAND-MAID and more BAND-MAID is even better.
Thanks for the great reaction. Nothing I like better than watching musicians watch BAND-MAID and can't stop grinning from ear to ear. The excitement and joy these ladies bring is incredible.
All Maidiacs wish they were „on set“ with them at this time… Thank you for your reaction to this wonderful ladies!
Band Maid are so incredible. Kanami here is just incredible. The tapping runs act as a chorus. Kanami has said Carlos Santana, Larry Carlton, and EVH are influences.
Yeah, this is a brilliant song. Just brilliant
The highlight of this song is Akane, the drummer. Those chops are insanely good.
May I humbly suggest Rinne as your next B-M song? It is fairly heavy and Akane goes to town on the kick drum. Misa also shines on the bass. As someone whose musical talent consists of playing Mary Had A Little Lamb on the piano, I am always somewhat in awe of multi-instrumentalists like yourself. Hopefully you can indulge in your passion again soon.
Thank you, sir, I will get back at it soon!
Now that you have done Nightwish and Band-Maid , you need some Jinjer song pieces live session , then Who`s gonna be the one (live) , and Teacher teacher, offical MV .
I love Onset's off-kilter groove
"They sound like Band-Maid"...best line ever. In an ocean of bands and performers everyone strives for their own unique sound. I believe this band has done that. They are unique in look and sound, beautiful and talented, and a fantastic tribute to the often overlooked music industry in Japan. I am seriously hooked on Band-Maid and Babymetal. I don't care that I don't know Japanese for the lyrics, the sound and the vibe draws me in and captures me. My taste for music is all over the place, I enjoy music from many genres, but my heart is in rock and some metal. This music speaks to me despite the language barrier. It says things that words can't.
💯
You maybe interested know. Band-Maid have a several instrumentals that they play during live sets. "ONSET" was the first one and they only played during their live concerts; it gives Saiki some rest time for her voice. They never released the song on a CD for a while. At the time, this clip from the 2018 Zepp Tokyo Concert was the ONLY time they had it on any kind of media. Then, in early 2019, they released two singles "Bubble" and "Glory" as individual CD or as a 2-pack bundle. And they issued "ONSET" as a bonus CD disc ONLY with the 2-pack set. Needless to say, the 2pack set were all sold out and can only be found on the 2ndary markets like ebay or via proxy buyer from Japan. They usually go for over $60 or more right now; they were much cheaper when new. But, the mother of the prize - 2018 Zepp Tokyo Concert DISC is a bonus disc for the single "Start Over" (with only 2 songs) issued in 2018. That one is also over around $400 on ebay. The other absolutely awesome concert is from their 2017 Shinkiba Studio COAST concert which was a bonus disc (bluray, DVD) for their full album "World Domination". Again, only can be found on the secondary market for over $400. Those two concert DISCs are packed full of amazing performances. They are just amazing. And the sound engineering is just out of the world. I would say superior to the newer concert set from their 2020 LINE CUBE Shibuya Disc - concert only.
Wow! That's Crazy
What I like about this song is that the pretty girls are dressed as maids and play, but it's too dark and invisible. They have a musicianship where they can compete just by playing.🤘😳😳😳Konnichiwa from Japan👘🌸🇯🇵
I had the same thing happen to me I'm a friend of mine was dating a woman and Russia so I started listening to Russian pop music even though I couldn't understand the language I found that I really enjoyed a lot of it and eventually it would motivate me to learn some of the language.
I agree with you they sound like Band Maid 🙂
The lead guitar sound is better here as it's from the Zepp Tokyo show. The live Domination one you did was from Line Cube Shibuya. I (and many others) wondered where the guitar went as well. There is a Sound Engineer who did a reaction (a fans request who had the same question) to a track from there (i think PLAY) and he explained the problem with the acoustics at that place. Also with Misa's solo bass part she starts off with pick and then hides the pick in the crook of her index finger to slap, very quick how she does it.
I like your guitar work. Sounds really good.
WOW, great reaction! Miku keeping that steady rhythm guitar groove as Misa and Akane beat you into submission with the best rhythm section anywhere... The Kanami completely melts your face with her melodic tapping in between making her PRS scream for mercy! There is not a better band on the planet right now!
BUT, you also need to hear a band with a lot of crossover Band-Maid fans called THE WARNING! They are a young Power Trio of 3 sisters from Mexico that will rock you to your core! They have an EP and 2 full albums of originals, all in English. They just signed with Lava/Republic Records last August and about to release their 3rd album (First of a 5 record deal with Lava). The first single was just released a few weeks ago, called "Choke". Here is the music video: ruclips.net/video/TlOy0XbFVlM/видео.html
Ryan, The Warning will become your new addiction. And as we fans say, "You've been Warned!"
"Onset" - where Kanami sings the song with her guitar. Backed up by the best rhythm section in music. With most other bands, I groan inwardly at their instrumentals. With Band-Maid I genuinely look forward to them. Saiki has a break while her virtuoso mates strut their stuff. They are on another level entirely.
The Maid's lay waste to every venue they grace
Band Maid, who drop an instrumental breakdown into the middle of their... instrumental piece.
Right !
SO GOOD! They rock hard!
Akane combines the power of John Bonham and Keith Moon with the steadiness of beat of Ringo Starr. She is a "gorilla" metronome!
Hope the elbow is better soon and you can get back to this... ruclips.net/video/u7GVSPi32TY/видео.html
there is a pause here that is so god damn ironic to the tshirt i bought from you lol
Yip, welcome to the band maid rabbit hole.
You miiiight want to listen to wonderland live if you want a change of pace. It's a bit of a slower song, but it's a masterpiece composition wise.
Loved your reaction so much i had to watch it twice.
I was thankfully waitng at a long line at Burger King this afternoon with Onset on repeat. This is one of my alltime favorite songs, full stop!
Ryan, you will love Puzzle (live). Its on Bili Bili, the chinese youtube :-)
love onset also love play both live versions
The next video same gooood Play from them.I wish you the best...gitar play with broken arm it's not easy ;) First time when I heard this song I take my father PRS and try play this song.Even I never really can play :) That evening probably 40 times I listened again and again....I am sure you just want play this as me...But the good news if your arms ready again to play probably you can :)
Band-maid's weirdest and my favorite song so far is Giovanni. I'm sure you'll get heaps of requests from other maidiacs.
The legendary Saiki bathroom break!
Band-Maid brought me here. Your comment about bands that are impressive and respect all their band members tells me you are ready for the next step on the journey: Lovebites. Try "Holy War" ruclips.net/video/bgAxpEpEcno/видео.html In my opinion there are six bands at the top of the heap in terms of pure brilliance: Nightwish, Jinjer, Band-Maid, Lovebites, Unlucky Morpheus, and Nemophila. The last four are Japanese, and you will not be disappointed in anything any of them do.
2020, locked up, shut down and waiting for something to happen. Then BAND MAID, and it has been great ever since. It was the year I discovered Jacob Collier, Snarky Puppy, Baby Metal and BAND MAID! BAND MAID!! BAND MAID!!! Sorry, I love Band Maid. :)
Flat out the best all female band in the world. The level of each member’s expertise is top shelf elite. And together they are tight AF.
MISA MISA MISA!
Excellent reaction and commentary... Your comments about discovering Nightwish, Band Maid and other incredible bands really highlighted for me the absolute lack of quality rock coming out of America.. if GVF is the best we got.. that's pretty sad, IMO.. the corporatization of the American music industry has not been good for independent up and coming artists...
Agreed
Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan?
The band is call "Lovebites"
They all Beautiful Princesses metal band. But they are really really World class musicians.
And they have a lot fans too.
The song is "Winds of Transylvania"
Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
😉🤫
My curiosity (noseyness) has gotten the best of me with your reactions & I haven't seen anyone else bring it up so I have to ask. Who's there watching BAND-MAID with you? Because it appears as though they must be enjoying it just as much as you are. Their song Play was also supposed to be an instrumental, but Saiki loved the song so much that she asked Miku to write lyrics for it, something simple that the crowd would be able to participate with, because they're quite aware of the language barrier. They have an official live on their channel which is spectacular!!
What? It's just me and my dogs..... occasionally I may appear to look at someone, but I'm not. I usually record these when I'm home alone.... except for the dogs
@@RyanMear well shit!! Lol. Now I have to watch it again. I'm old & apparently falling fast, because I could have sworn someone was there with you. I have to go now, it's time for my medication.
