Band-Maid and The Warning are friends, and their fans (Maidiacs and The Warning Army) are too. One big happy world of rock.
This is the world I want to live in
@@PhilZerowelcome to the world of Band-Maid and enjoy the ride down the Pigeon 🕊 Hole 🕳 1 song down and 134 more to go 🤙🏽
They are at this moment feasting on bandmaid studio time, ramen, beer and whisky together. 8 really dangerous women breaking baaad. @@PhilZero
TWA & Maidiacs. Two bands that are kicking in doors filling venues . Rock is making a come back 🤘⚡️🤘
They are the 2 greatest popular band's on the planet at this time.
Pausing or not pausing is not an issue, as long as something of substance is added when people pause. I never get bored when you pause the video because you always add something of value, whether it be something informative or just giving your opinion. You deliver your points in a very approachable and concise way, so it never feels like you're wasting my time. I've watched your Warning reactions and now this one, and you've done a consistently great job.
💜🤘
12:42 - "Chill, chill!"
BAND-MAID: "Yeah that's not gonna' happen"
🤣🤣 0% chance they were gonna chill
@@PhilZeroThe do, actually do chill…occasionally. 😂 The basically do every type of song.
Oh, first, I thought I’d mention your dog is awesome, btw. 😃
The Maids do every kind of song. 🎶
And, did you see that they played a collaboration song with The Warning at their joint concert last Wednesday!! Yup!! Called “Show Them”. They kept the structure pretty straightforward but has some cool elements from the sneaked video a Warning crew mistakenly leaked online (it’s gone now 🤷🏻♂️)
But the Maids have a few chill songs. Check out their most recent release
- “Bestie” - OMV - which is actually a collaboration with guitarist Mike Einzinger of INCUBUS.
Then other songs are
- “Daydreaming” - OMV
- “Wonderland” - OLV
- “Memorable” - OMV
- “About Us” - OLV
But the song you really want to see & hear is their 10th Anniversary Okyuji show closer
- “Endless Story” - OLV - you’ll see their hearts and the love they have for their fans.
Another all out rocker extravagant performance like “Domination” but with even better solos…🤯
- “Hate?” - OLV - from 10th Anniversary show
Really enjoy your videos!
Take care and Rock On 🤘🏼🔥🎸🥁🎤🎹🎧🎼🌏🇯🇵🇲🇽🇨🇦😎✌🏼
I've seen hundreds of reactions to this song and was not expecting to learn something new but I was wrong. Great job!!! The thing with BAND-MAID is that they play a wide range of styles, they have even done a couple of acoustic concerts, they also have an alter-ego called BAND-MAIKO that mixes in traditional Japanese instruments. They have songs that sound like they came from every decade from the '70s until now. Their complexity ranges from punk to progressive. Thanks for checking them out.
THANK YOU!!! I will defs be checking out more 💜🤘🙏🏻
They sound great!
The little “thrash off” between the two guitarists is a bit of fun. When Miku sacked herself as lead singer she didn’t want to just stand there with the microphone so she hung a guitar round her neck, even though she couldn’t play it. Kaname has taught her over the years and Miku is now pretty good, even having her own signature Zemaitis guitar. This little battle has Kaname egging Miku on to play faster and faster while keeping up with her until Miku can’t do any more. Miku then falls backwards and Kaname raises her hand showing she’s still the best. You’ll also notice the band gathered in front of the drummer pulling faces at her to try and put her off. They are great musicians, but they have a lot of fun as well, something that seems to have been lost in other parts of the music world!
ミクはよく転びます
Yes , THE MAID'S are the complete package entertainment & music as well , best time's I've ever had at a concert , and you become a part of it !
We are called Maidiacs and we love our Maids like they love us. You'll never know what to expect from Band Maid .
I'm a The Warning fan… you guys have a HELLUVA band here! Very good! I am a fan of your "Maids" now, too!

The Maidiacs and The Warning Army unite! The 2 best bands on the planet
Hi Phil! Welcome to Band-Maid! The best hard rock band I have heard in my 58 years on this planet. They don't stick to any one genre and often mix genres in songs. They are extremely diverse and have an extensive back catalogue featuring Punk, Pop-Punk, Hard-Rock, Classic Rock, Metal, Prog, Blues, Jazz, Groove, Rap etc. From face melting 220 bpm punk-prog to ballads, instrumentals to acoustics they do it all. They can make you headbang, they can make you pogo, they can make you cry like a baby. They are also five of the nicest people in music, without a shred of ego. They are funny and fun and world class musicians to boot. They are currently into their 11th year with the original line up.
Fans of Band-Maid call ourselves Maidiacs. The band calls their fans Masters and Princesses (from maid café culture)
Btw, Miku the rhythm guitarist (red rose) formed the band. She had the idea of Band-Maid after working as a maid in Japanese maid cafe's. Her idea is a concept called "The Gap" - that is what you see (cute maids) is NOT what you get (Hard Rock/Punk/Metal). They take the maid café concept literally. They call their concerts "servings" and their fans "Masters and Princesses". Oh, and Miku is an 810 year old small pigeon. Welcome to the pigeon hole Po!
Nice to meet you, Phil.
Thanks for your reaction to the BAND-MAID song. I hope this performance was a great encounter for you.
Since I worked in the Japanese music industry and concert hall was my workplace, I have probably experienced more gigs than the average music fan. And now that I have retired from my job, there is a particular reason why I went to 21 BAND-MAID gigs (they call them お給仕OKYUJI) in the last year alone.
It's because their gigs get better and better with each passing show. Even the next day's gig changes the setlist, and no two gigs are ever the same. Even the MC's are different and laugh out loud hilarious every time.
In other words, every moment is a one-time-only chemical reaction, all of which become unforgettable moments in a lifetime. After every OKYUJI, I think that I will never be able to experience anything better, only to have that thought be completely overturned at the next OKYUJI. LOL
So, the moment OKYUJI is over, I find myself wanting to go back for the next one, and eagerly awaiting that day to come.
Their playing is great, of course, but I bet you'll love their songs. Almost all of their repertoire is filled with gems. 🥰
The five members' sounds are meticulously intertwined, complex, dense, and yet catchy ―― a novel musicality that combines these seemingly contradictory elements into one brilliantly executed song(s) and performance(s) that will surely captivate you, I believe. ☝
Nicely put. I appreciate your perspective, thanks for sharing.
Yes, that's what it's about. You made the ESSENTIAL. :)
I would totally agree to what you said , BAND MAID is different from other BAND'S in every aspect ! that's what sets them apart from other Band's , not knowing what's coming next ? but you know it's gonna be different ! not the same repetition other Band's do ! that's what sets them apart , the level of their talent's sets them apart as well !
Another home run Phil. Band Maid is a great follow up to The Warning. The two are currently appearing together in Japan. Talented women all and another exceptional drummer. There’s a lot of material here. Alternating between both groups could keep you busy (and us well entertained) for a long time!
Thank you! God I wish I could see that show in Japan soooo bad
@Phil did you see the slight of hands by Misa during her bass solo. She picked and suddenly the pick disappeared and she plucked/ slapped then pick reappeared and she started picking/ strumming again, so cool. I’m old school drummer and huge The Warning fan but obsessed with Misa and Akane playing. It’s not for everyone but I dig it.
WOW! They rock! I can see how The Warning and Band Maid can "make a good gumbo" together! I see amazing stage presence, an ability to connect with their audience, loads of talent, everybody is having a blast, loooooads of competence rendering complete comfort on stage -- they are all stunningly impressive!! And also like The Warning, I think my fav has to be the total badass playing bass! She's wringing that bass out for every last drop!!
Right?! God what I wouldn’t give to be at their show in Japan next week
The bassist is Misa aka the barefoot assassin, always barefooted and always got a beer in hand or her amp head ready
@JDHood I've seen Band-Maid 3 times live and I'll go see them every chance I get. They are a fantastic band to see live. I hope to get the chance to see The Warning soon also.
Saiki isn't classically trained, she started singing as a child in Karaoke bars with her Mums encouragement and aspired to be an idol like her heroine Namie Amuro but when she got the call to join Band Maid she went for it and has developed into a phenomenal front woman. She had vocal chord polyp surgery in 2017 caused by the intense workload and since has been well taken care of by a combination of having a vocal coach, managing their live sets to give her breaks, a healthy lifestyle and fitness regime.
Her voice is incredible 🔥🤘
@@PhilZeroif watch a show you will see she takes breaks , band nsids plays a couple songs that are full instrumentals no vocals and they are amazing
We are the Maidiacs.
We love the Warning too.
The bands are friends.
I want to be your friend
@@PhilZero
You already are.
Yesssss
Band-Maid is their own genre ❤
You need to hear the debut THRILL 2014., Real Existence, Secret my Lips, Daydreaming, Choose Me, Dice And about 25 more
I will always preach the Gospel of Band-Maid. Having grown up in the golden age of Rock and Metal, I can attest that these women would definitely stand their ground against the Legends of Rock. They are helping to keep the flames of Rock lit.
Band-Maid's song writing and musicianship is off the charts! Like The Warning, they are a great live band. Basically, just pick any live song and you won't be disappointed. They go soft to hard and everything in-between. And you can actually do the same with The Warning too....two of the best rock bands on the planet today!!!!!
One last thing: No matter how good you believe you can play a Musical Instrument, There's a Japanese Lady who plays it better.
No wonder Phil's reactions and breakdowns are always so insightful... He literally went to school for this 😂 Awesome video as always Phil! Always interesting to hear your take no matter what band it is 🤘
My first time watching him. He's good! I learnt a lot I must say.
Thank you!! 💜🤘
Band Maid and The Warning together will rule the world together!! 8 badass ladies that kick some serious ass!
I just checked out my first Band Maid song because you took me there.
And TWA took me there! What’d you think?
@@PhilZero I'm from the British Invasion, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix era. I've always loved electric guitars, don't play them, but love them, the heavier the better. In the 90's, I fell back to Classic Rock and listened to a lot of songs I knew well. I'm not into rap, unless it's RATM. I got into RUclips as a way to see old video performances of bands like Vanilla Fudge, which I had never seen live. I started watching reaction videos in order to feel like I was sharing the music with friends. I saw Jinjer Pisces and immediately jumped on their music. What I'll call it is speed metal - great musicianship but fairly repetitive. I play harmonica and have been in many jam sessions, and speed metal reminded me of that. I stumbled across Liliac doing Enter Sandman and was into their music but then they went glam and I looked around for other young bands. That's how I found The Warning. Money was the one that hooked me (the supporting Foo Fighters one). Their whole story grabbed me and I've been going way back and deep. I watched some Baby Metal but the girls are not musicians. I have seen a lot of reactors who are into Band Maid and the other J Rock and K Pop bands, which the members of The Warning are also into. This video was, to me, a speed metal video - great musicianship, great voice and more like a jam session. It does not replace the basic things I get from The Warning - song structure, stage performance, Dany and Pau's "it factor," and Ale's cool. I would love to see The Warning do more solos and stretch out their song times and I think that will come in time. Since they've been at it so long and it's so well documented, we forget that they truly did not enter the mainstream away from RUclips until they signed with Lava and honed their skills during the pandemic. I am interested to see what The Warning learns in Japan. If you watch their documentaries, you'll hear that they are always looking for something to learn and try out. That's why their songs are so varied. I'm just into their story. BTW, I'm hooked on your channel for your analysis. For example, you are the only reactor who recognized the influence of J Rock on The Warning's song structure.
Saiki is Karaoke trained. As a kid she would sing karaoke while her Mother would be socializing with her friends at the neighborhood bar.
The lyrics are written by Miku Kobato, rhythm guitar, vocals. She is highly respected in Japan for her lyrics. She is also the founder of the band and the Spokes-Pigeon.
Now my young padawan... Band-Maid Hate? live and your journey to the Maidiac side will be complete. Band-Maid, your favorite bands favorite band. Excellent reaction and breakdown. One of the best in a long time.
Band Maid calls their fans Masters and Princesses which comes from Maid Cafe culture, likeways their shows are Okyuji (servings) An often used unnofficial term for fans is Maidiacs
Thanks for nerding out. I learned something.
Oh nerding out is natural for me. I can be annoying to listen to music around. 😂 Thanks for hanging out here! 💜🤘
@@PhilZero
Lots of us are musicians, so nerding out is just fine.
and all of us non musicians love it too! 😂
Welcome to the insane world of Band-Maid... These ladies are off the charts. This is why it is such a big deal about the ladies in The Warning combining with Band-Maid today. Both groups are the future of Rock. Cheers!
100% agree! 💜🤘
Band-Maid is all about MISA, the bass player
Welcome to the Band Maid world, it's a journey more than 120 exceptional songs. Enjoy :) Next step go for an instrumental Onset or From now on.
HERE WE GOOOOO 🚀
Nope, Saiki the lead singer isn't classically trained. She has had vocal training after undergoing throat surgery some years ago for polyps though.
Oh, and your review was absolutely fascinating thank you. I learned a ton. Btw, the main composer for Band-Maid is Kanami - the lead guitarist. I think she is a genius (my opinion).
Thank you for hanging out here! Saiki’s voice fits the sound soooo well 💜🤘
@@PhilZero If you want to find out more about Saiki, you should check out Ohrenje's documentary about her (and the other band members as well).
Yes Kanami is a genius, she could power the world with the amount ideas firing her synapses :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 I hear that she can brew her coffee just by snapping her fingers.
@@jjo154 A universe music powered by coffee and cake.
So the reason The Warning Army recommended this is because they play a show together on June 12th. TW are already in Japan palling around with Band Maid.
UGHHHHH I WANNA GOOOOO
@@PhilZero I feel you ! Big part of the world slept on the Japanese music scene ! There are so many rock and metal bands that if you start reacting to them , they will supply you with content for years :D May I suggest a another one? The band is called Lovebites the song Judgement Day (MV if you want lyrics, live if you want to be blown away ) Their relatively new bassist prodigy Fami is a force to be reckoned with on her own too (her YT has over 650k subs where she uploads base covers and originals)
Cold Rain, too!
Love to the Warning Army. The Warning is a great band! But I'm obsessed with Band-Maid! Absolutely cannot get enough.
Great reaction, Phil, you noted a lot of the uniqueness that makes Band-Maid infinitely listenable. I hope to see you do more reactions to them. Rock on!

In the past, Domination (Live) has been the song to introduce people to Band-Maid. They also have two fantastic instrumentals - Onset (Live) and From Now On (Official Music Video). That being said, in November 2023, they did 10th Anniversary Concert at Yokohama Arena that produced multiple amazing performances that they released as official music videos. From that set, Hate (Live) has become one of the most recommended songs from Band-Maid. Personally, I am a huge fan of their performance of "endless story" which was the finale for the show. It is a love song that they transformed into a love song for their fans, especially by adding a new verse. It really showcases Saiki's singing ability.
As other posters mentioned, Saiki had vocal surgery (about 1.5 years prior to this 2020 recording of Domination). In the following years, her voice has become even stronger.
Band-Maid has a huge catalog of many amazing songs. One other that I highly recommend checking out, that doesn't get as much attention as some of their others, is Puzzle. They have an official live video for it (electric), but in 2018 they played it acoustic in a concert at Zepp Tokyo. The acoustic version is haunting and one of my favorite Band-Maid songs.
P.S. Just wait till you find out about Band-Maiko.
One thing you're gonna find out about Band Maid is that they love a good lyrical coda to finish out a song. They will continue to surprise again and again. What to hear next. The other big live flex track is called Hate. It's on their channel.
I love the coda in "Choose Me".
"Do they sing in English, or Japanese?"
Yes. The only appropriate answer is yes.
YES IS THE CORRECT ANSWER 🤘
"It feels illegal"
Exactly my thought listening almost all of their tracks
Welcome to Band-Maid. And yes you will find the Maidiacs are some of the most passionate fans around.
Band maid and The Warning. Technical overload with emotional overload. Could be a recipe for untold magnificence or disaster. We will soon find out...
Awesome info on the song structure! That is all thanks to Kanami (lead guitar and main composer) who is classically trained on the piano and learned guitar in high school. She is the "mastermind" behind 99% of their music with heavy collaboration from Misa (bass), Akane (drums), Miku (rhythm guitar/BU vocals) and Saiki (lead vocals). A truly inventive and enjoyable music experience with Band Maid. While everything they do sounds "familiar" they are able to make it their own.
Many Japanese rock groups have world-class technique for playing each instrument. Recently, Japanese music from the 1980s and after, including rock, has become popular around the world. World-famous guitarist Marty Friedman says that this is because Japanese music has complex chord progressions that are different from the chord progressions of typical Western music. Please watch the video.

Great prediction. Best rock band on the planet. Watch HATE? live from the 2023 Yokahama arena concert. Everything they do is top tier. Watch the live stuff.
Just went and watched the original video :) I have to admit I haven't listened much to them yet I'm about to see them live on Wednesday when I see The Warning in Tokyo! I'm hoping this will be one of the songs, man what energy!
Oh myyyyyy I wanna go to that show so bad! Enjoy and rock out extra hard 🤘
@@PhilZero I loved it! I was there for The Warning but Band-Maid got a new fan that day :) Not listening much to them recorded (except for live videos and also that new song) but looking forward to a future day when I get to see them live again because that show rocked! No pictures or videos allowed (which is a good thing in a big way but also a loss), but when they told Dany about the magic spell and had her say "moe moe kyun kyun" I lost it haha, that was so cute! Both bands where having a blast and enjoying every moment of it, that was clear! While TW was on I saw B-M rocking out to the side of the stage \m/
Dude you are in for a ride!!!! Try anything they have live and be blown away. Try HATE? , Play, or vid From Now On (instrumental).
Band Maid is themed after maid cafe's in japan, so they name their fans based on that culture, and the terms they use are "Masters and Princesses". The fanbase itself, at least from my experience, calls themselves pretty much exclusively "Maidiacs". We are absolutely passionate and knowledgeable about the ladies as you'll read. We can get very snippy if we think they're being disrespected, but are very friendly otherwise. I think you'll be just fine.
On the lead singer's training. Saiki grew up singing karaoke and had some lessons, but early in the life of the band she developed polyps and had to have them surgically removed. She worked with a vocal coach very heavily after that to improve her technique and vocal power, so she probably is now classically trained, but definitely wasn't when they started. This is from several years ago now, she's even better today.
I've listened to easily hundreds of reactions to this song, and I learned something new today. Thank you, this was a great reaction.
Yup, you're on the right track, dude. Keep It Up!
I'm gonna tell ya to check out "Hate" next even though I need to move on and listen to more of Band-Maid's songs, 'cause I've heard "Hate" a bunch of times, now, and they're a new band for
me 🙂
Phil, your sapience in music is overwhelming, you can pause million times... As with The Warning Army I'm pretty sure that Maidiacs are seeing million times this... So go on...
Miku (the rhythm guitarist) worked in a Maid Cafe before starting the band in 2013, she liked the juxtaposition between cute maid outfits and hard rock music. Like The Warning they have a lot of musical influences, and also like the Mexican sisters they kick ass Po!🤘
Band-Maid and The Warning are my two favorite current bands! I was introduced to Band-Maid by Pau and Ale from The Warning talking about them. I think they are perfect compliments to each other. Please try Hate? live from Yokohama
ruclips.net/video/yfORoQIqB3E/видео.html
💜🤘 The Warning and BandMaid’s friendship is so cool
I don't know what to say except thanks for checking out our Maids. They are special for sure. This band has a crazy story from nearly being disbanded just before the release of their first music video to going on the path to world domination.
If you want to go further down the pigeon hole I would recommend Hate? (live) or Don't You Tell Me (live) if you want cool breakdowns. Warning and Unleash if you like cool music videos. Daydreaming and Endless Story if you like ballads. Choose Me, Play, Puzzle if you live grooves. If you want instrumentals check out From Now On, Onset and Without Holding Back.
What boomboom said. 👍
HAH! One of my favorite reactors meets one of my favorite bands! So awesome!
Cannot wait until their collaboration with The Warning hits on the new Band-Maid album in September :)
Great reaction. The companion live MV to this is Hate official live. You should check it out. It is an awesome performance. Rock on 🤘
Welcome to the land of The Maidiacs and thanks for checking out or Maids.
Phil, I really, really loved your reaction. You added so much to the music, sharing with us about how you went about listening to music. I loved it! I'm now subscribed and looking forward to a great journey with you as you explore music. I do hope that a part of it will include some more Band Maid and Warning too. I am in my 70's and Band Maid is one of the absolute finest bands I have ever heard. To me they are the greatest rock/metal band in the world today, followed closely by Warning, Lovebites, and Wagakki Band!🤘❤
great reaction Phil, I could listen to you analyze music all day long, especially for The Warning and BAND-MAID. don't worry BAND-MAID have lots of surprises in store for you. I think you'd love an instrumental called "From Now On" or "Hate?" Live from Yokohama. anyhow you got a new sub, I'll be checking out more on your channel. Band-Maid fans call themselves Maidiacs. Band-Maid call us Masters and Princesses. Band-Maid is number 1 for me but The Warning are pretty awesome as well. I'd love to see the June 12 show. I'm positive they are cooking up something very special for us. on a side note this is the moment Band-Maid and The Warning met at Aftershock Festival in San Francisco and discovered they were fans of each other... ruclips.net/video/pTtH8jozrQQ/видео.htmlsi=8ciOCooMmBouMKzE cheers
Welcome, Maidiac-in-the-making!😊 You might have heard jrock before, but you haven’t even heard the range of these ladies. Their variety is unrivaled against their contemporaries. They’re simply the best band this short century. Keep listening and you’ll understand why.
"Expect the unexpected." That pretty much sums up all of Kanami's compositions. The more you get into Band-Maid's music, the more you realize just how many genres influence their music, and just how different all their songs are from one another.
I am a The Warning fan, just saw then on Instagram posting photos with BAND MAID, and your video was recommended, so it is my first time listening to them as well and... They are amazing! I'll definetily search for more of their songs!
The Warning and Band-Maid are two fantastic bands. Why not celebrate them both by checking out Band-Maid’s “Warning”. Though in this case, the music video is the one to play. Not the live one.
Really good reaction. You put into words what I can never seem to do when I try to explain how Band Maids music sounds familiar and new all at the same time.
First time hearing these beautiful young ladies… and i am AMAZED!
Their skills are superb… and i am a fan now!
So happy my beautiful ladies are with yours in collaberation! They will vome away with so much more that they started off with… I'm sure. All it can do is make them even better! Band Maid is definitely a leader in rock!

All my friends from the incredible Band-Maid fan base will be here soon. Nothing like a new Band-Maid pigeon hole. Band-Maid has so many great songs that you really can start anywhere in their giant catalog and be amazed. I have some suggestions. You might want to get to know their names. Kanami(Mincho) - Lead Guitar, Misa(The Assassin) - Bass, Miku(Little Pigeon) - Rhythm Guitar and Creator of Band-Maid, Akane - Drummer Extraordinaire, and Saiki - Lead Singer.

Excellent reaction with lots of insight for us who are none musicians. Please keep reacting to BAND-MAID as they have over 100 songs and counting.
Cute dog buy the way.
Hello from Tokyo, Japan! I'm here to see The Warning and BAND-MAID play a show together!
HELLO! LUCKY YOU! ENJOY AND ROCK OUT EXTRA HARD FOR ME 💜🤘
You just found the best band on the planet. The Maids crush...
He did that about month ago and the best band on the planet is called The Warning. ;D
The Alesxisonfire shirt made it for me :) I like your analysis style. Ya miiiight wanna try HATE? live next.
Ahh yes a man of culture I see 😂🤘
Thanks for the reaction and comments. Really enjoyed your analysis. These ladies are legit. Arguably the best live rock band on the planet, their stage presence commands your full attention. Exuding pure energy and joy, they leave you completely wanting more and yet satiated at the same time. Do check out a live version of either Moratorium, No God, Play, Hate?, or Real Existence next. From Now On is an instrumental track also worth checking out. The latter showcases their musical proficiencies. Until next time...Cheers!
I've recently heard astronomers are preparing for a super nova to appear in the Earth's skies. I'm pretty sure they are referring to Band-Maid and The Warning playing together on June 12. I could be wrong, but I doubt it. 😂 THAT!...was a great and very informative reaction. VERY cool! Thanks so much and welcome to The Pigeonhole, Phil, PO!
Thank you!!!! God what I wouldn’t give to go to that show next week 🤣😭
@@PhilZero Amen to that! 😂
Jerm! 🍺😁🤘🏻
@@RogerChance5309 Rog! 🤣🕊
Being a Lovebites fan I can agree Live Performances are best and my go to Band Maid song is Warning love the music video
The Villareal sisters and the Maids are preparing a concert together on 06/12 sold out at the Rapongi Theater in Tokyo. This is going to be fire. Great analysis Phil. THANKS.
Keep on pausing to add your insight. That’s what I’m here for.
Thank you!! 💜🙏🏻🤘
Exactly!
I think that you are going to love this band. Lyrics by Miku (Red rose/previously worked in a maid cafe in Tokyo) also band founder, Backing vocals/ Guitar. Music by Kanami- Lead guitar/some backing vocals/piano. Their song structures are often pretty unique but can include many genres. Great reaction- Thanks.
Excellent first listen to "Band Maid" Congratulations! Phil, your enthusiasm is contagious and the knowledge you share is truly appreciated. Could you please analyze Band Maid's "Hate" the live version is super energetic.
"The Warning" my favorite Rock band ⚠️⚡taking into account that you are a fan of "Pau" I recommend a quiet but excellent song “23” official video live at the Metropólitan Theater in 2022, I was one of the more than 3000 lucky spectators that night and you can believe me, it is pure magic.
Saludos! desde Mexico. 🤘😎🇲🇽.
MUCHAS GRACIAS! 🤠💜🤘
Band Maid! 🍺😁🤘🏻
💜🤘🤠
Never ever have met anyone who have listened to band maid and not been impressed
On Set, that will blow your mind
Great breakdown of this great song! I've watched many reactions to this track and yours is top 10. 👍👍 My favorite parts are seeing the small pigeon (Miku-red rose) flap her wings franticly along with her guitar sensei, Kanami, just before the drum solo bit. The way they brought it down from the solos to the softer parts is a Band Maid staple, they always let you come up for a breath before they push you back under. The B-chorus has such a special feel melodically and rhythmically, reminds me of some beautifully flowing classical music, like Gustav Holst's "Jupiter". Another trademark of the Maids is "no verse same as the first", which probably covers 98% of the 130+ song catalog. 🤘
Your reaction video just came across my feed and was going to see what you thought of the best band ever. I am 55 and have seen Pink Floyd live, but these ladies are the best band I have ever heard. A new song is coming 7/5 and a new album follows that (The Warning will appear on their album as well. ) So needless to say it will be a good Summer.
Excellent reaction. You were fun to watch and very informative. Keep on with BM. You won’t be disappointed! Warning and BM are the 2 best bands in the world if you enjoy great hard rock.
Thank you! 🙏🏻💜🤘
you have no idea what you are getting yourself in to. Dont expect anything with them just roll with it and enjoy it all.
Buckled up. Snacks packed. Full tank. Here we gooooooo
And The Warning are in Japan right now getting ready for their concert with BAND-MAID!
I WANNA GOOOOOO
@@PhilZero I believe The Warning got there early - like a week early. Everyone is thinking the bands may be spending some time together in a studio or writing or both. Hopes are high for something special to come out of it!
Band-Maid is always awesome live
I haven't seen anyone analyze melodies. I think melody is their superpower. There's a lot to dig into with Band-Maid.
💜🤘 I think so too. This song is obviously very technical and could’ve easily turned into a nerdy guitar riff salad song. But they were able to dial in the melody to still sound like a catchy pop rock song
Now you get to jump "down the pigeon hole". (Inside joke for Band-Maid fans). What a wonderful musical journey it will become for you. Band-Maid defies any and all rock genres because they incorporate so many of those sounds and genres into their music (often in one song). We Maidiacs simply call their music Band-Maid Music. Their most recent "hard-rock" release is "Hate?", the official live video, from their 10th Anniversary Tour finale in Yokohama last November. It's an absolute banger that again shows off the amazing talent of MISA, their bassist, and Kanami, there lead guitarist. Beware, there will be a duel during the song. Their latest release is "Bestie", a heartfelt lyrical tribute from Miku Kobato, the bands founder, chief lyricist, and rhythm guitarist to her bandmates. The song was a collaboration with Mike Einziger of the rock band Incubus, who gave Kanami, their primary composer, the opening cord of the song and input into the overall sound of the song. "Bestie" is more of a power ballad, but again Kanami's guitar work on the song is stellar.
Rocking that Alexisonfire T-shirt! I see you. Great reaction as well!
Ah yes, a man of culture I see 🤠💜🤘
Love your reactions. So many reactors just say they love it (like and subscribe). I learn so much from your reactions and analysis. Thanks
Thank YOU for hanging out here! 💜🤘
Holy shit is right. They are amazing. The solo trade offs gave me goose bumps. Love your reaction videos as always.
Phil Zero , Welcome to BAND-MAID Enjoy your journey down the Pigeon hole , MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Barefoot Bass Assassin , BAND-MAID fans are called Maidiac`s .
MISA MISA MISA 🤘
Enjoyed your take. Love it when i can learn a bit along the way. There aren't official videos for either of these, but structurally, two of my favorite Band-Maid songs are Clang and Youth. I'd be curious to hear your take on them.
You have to analyze HATE? and Bestie for us, please! HATE? is traditional J-Rock while Bestie is co-written with Mike Einziger of Incubus so you can pretty much figure out what the style is for that. :D Thanks! Great reaction!
We're called "Maidiacs" , thank you. Here's a guide to everything BAND-MAID.
MAIDIACS 💜🤘
@@PhilZero (some)Fans call themselves MAIDIACS. The BAND call the Fans MASTERS(males) and PRINCESS(females) base on Maid’s cafe concept and there Concert called OKYUJI( Serving). You will see both Masters&Princess or Maidiacs. But all good, whichever you wanna use. UP TO YOU. Tanks again for checking out our MAIDS😊
ARIGATO for your nice comment. Please watch the other live performances.
ONSET, HATE?, PUZZLE, RINNE, MORATORIUM.
And Please watch another great japanese female metal band LOVEBITES.
HOLY WAR, SWAN SONG+CHOPIN, A FROZEN SERENADE, HAMMER OF WRATH.
Thank you!!! 💜🤘🤠
Another amazing thing about this is it was song 20 out of a 22 song set. And they are still on fire! Just thought I would put it into perspective for you.
Saiki was classically trained in the izakayas of Osaka where her mom used to take her. LOL
on a more serious note, she has had much more training for taking care of her voice since having polyp surgery on her throat.
You are a phenomenal reactor. I learned some new things.
Thank you so much! 💜🙏🏻🤘
Really enjoy seeing you break down and explain what is happening in the songs. Things I may notice, but not think more beyond that, you tell us why/how it's there.
I'm very new to Band Maid as well, and through my being a Warning fan. You really need to Misa go off. I was floored by her. I can suggest watching Hate? (Official Live) for some excellent bass work. Among other excellent guitar playing.
If you liked this you totally need to check out Lovebites. The official live performance of their song “Holy War” is absolutely incredible.
Welcome & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 (Just so you know, I have a ticket to the concert by Band-Maid and The Warning on June 12 in Tokyo.) Band-Maid is one of the best bands in our country, especially in live performance. We say "Japan is the country obsessed by Rock Music". The history is very long and the obsession started in 1966 when Beatles visited Japan and held 5 concerts at Budokan. Speaking of hard rock / heavy metal music, a number of bands started to come to Japan since as early as 1970s : Led Zeppelin / Grand Funk Railroad (1971), Deep Purple (1972), Queen (1975), Kiss (1977), Cheap Trick / Van Halen / Scorpions (1978), Judas Priest (1978/79) and so on. Now, any type of rock can be enjoyed here, especially by many all-female or women-fronted bands. They are daughters of American / European rock, for sure. (Many are grand-daughters in terms of age.)
Uh-oh, we also say "Japan is the country obsessed by Jazz". It had started earlier than rock 😄
Oh my. I wish I could go to that show soooooo bad. Rock out hard for me! 💜🤘
Okay, names, pronunciation, nicknames, and roles, in order that they joined the band.
Miku Kobato - mee-koo - Kuruppo, the Little Pigeon, the Little Engine Who Will - band founder, backing (and occasionally lead) vocals, rhythm guitar, principal lyricist, tireless Spokespigeon and PR machine. Wielder of weapons grade cuteness. Poker shark and horse racing fanatic. So determined to see her band succeed that she fired herself as lead singer (she decided her voice wasn't strong enough for hard rock), then went looking for a replacement. Learned to play guitar after the band was formed. Definitely eccentric, possibly insane.
Kanami Tono - kah-nah-mee - Kanamincho or just Mincho - lead guitar, keyboards, principal composer and arranger. On stage, she's a savant mad riffer with a room temperature IQ and a huge crush on Saiki. In reality, she's a genius, and not just musically- she has a degree in economics with honors. A sweet, motherly woman who turns into a beast when you hand her a guitar.
Akane Hirose - ah-kah-neh - A-chan, the Gorilla - drums, sequencing, snacks, the leader the band doesn't have. What you see is what you get- a cheerful jock with a huge appetite who burns off the calories murdering her drums. Completely unflappable. Frequently snacks between songs. Has been known to sign her banana peels and throw them to the audience.
MISA - mee-sah - the Barefoot Assassin, MISA MISA MISA! - bass, booze, occasional wet work. Usually stone faced. Barely acknowledges the audience's existence. Always has a beer or a bottle of Jim Beam on her Orange amp. Originally, these were ways of coping with stage fright. These days, that's just how the assassin rolls.
Saiki Atsumi - sah-ee-kee (but Psyche is close enough) - the Ice Queen, Sensei, Sai-chan - lead vocals, some lyrics, the "We're done" girl. Fashionista and train nerd. Regards her band mates, especially Kanami and Miku, with bemused exasperation. In total command on stage; hides behind Miku off stage (she's actually kind of shy).
