- Kanami could defeat all the ninja turtles at once cause she's the best type of shredder.
This is the 6th track off Unseen World, H-G-K. I'll be dropping a new song every day or 2 until the album is finished.

I still can't believe how good this album is. It's a masterpiece
@reapercometh
Conqueror was allready a Masterpiece. Not 1 Bad Song on that Album and the amazing Song Wonderland.
@@sheldoncooper8199 I think wonderland / manners are equivalents, got a jazzy touch and superb vocals and wow everything else!!!!
@@davomi6x121
I agree, So Far Manners is still my Favorite of the New Album. But Warning and H.G.K. are also very good.
@@davomi6x121
I prefer Wonderland just a bit more cause the drumming is more complex and of course Saiki s amazing vocals
@@sheldoncooper8199 I hope 11 Feb live stream, We get a Wonderland rendition included.
About this song, here are the member's comment: (traduction thanks to Kairu Kafuka in the fb worlwide BM page)
Miku - And there it is. I'm quite fond of this song-po. I also like the lyrics-po. In this song, I feel Kanami has gotten broken, that she is so cool. H-G-K title is taken from a bomb named after it. I wrote chorus lyrics some russian based magical charms on it-po.
Akane - As for this song, I kept holding my breath while playing drums the whole time that I don't know when to breathe at all. It's all over the place also. During the calm part, I used a technique that whenever I use the high-hat, I use my hands to play my feet while being closed.
Saiki - The mouth is so busy. I like the part "Sa-ke-be-!".
Kanami - Saiki-sensei told me "Compose a song that combines alone and choose me." What do you think? But the song turned out to be completely different, lol. H-G-K could be the most difficult song to play the guitar in this album.
MISA - I love Kanami's solo at the first part. I highly recommend closely listening it. At the second verse, I composed the bass phrases in mind on how Saichan will sing it and I'm glad she completely sang it.
Interesting thought 🤘🤘
Kanami trying to write something based off another thing, and the end result turns out to be a completely different thing. Typical Mincho
I just love the chemistry between them
H-G-K imo is overall the best track of this album. Its fast paced, has a nasty technical main riff, catchy chorus, great vocal work around the chorus, crazy 2nd verse, Misa going off every now snd then, Akane and Kanami are pretty much going ham throughout, and the best part- the transition from the chorus to the solo and onto the bridge. Simply flawless songwriting. The outro complimented the song perfectly too.
Even that solo itself was the best solo of the album. If they release an MV for this, it’d be the perfect “introduction” video as this has every element of the core “Band Maid sound” at its current finest.
H-G-K = Kanami's rule-free playground. The song has a similar effect on me as 'Different'. It may sound a bit random and chaotic at the beginning, but somehow it all fits together. In any case, it provides variety for the whole album and gives at least a little insight into how far Kanami could go if she really wanted to.
My God this Song is like Heaven for Shredding Fans....
Like me.
HGK is probably in my top 3 songs on the album and one I definitely hope gets an MV
Rumor has it that this one is indeed next up for a mv. 🤞
Miku and Kanami sounds like birds chasing each other,
Hottest rock band on the planet right now 🔥
Best Rockalbum! It's shoting up in the Sky with every Song!
I think if we have learned anything is that locking Kanami and Miku up for most of the year that they are coming out firing on all cylinders. Miku with her writing and Kanami with the composer of the music. Sakia is like oh man what have you two been up to...lol. Misa and Akane are just killing on every song.
Guitars, guitars, guitars... CAUTION: high risk of awesomeness. Mincho is in the city
Flight of the Band Maid Murder Hornets, Po!
iWon't ask, anything.....
Lol yeah definitely is
I wonder if Miku played the bees... sounded very similar to the part she played in Rinne
Hahahaha, black and white ones?????
First, Warning! mv, and then this?! What more can i asked today... 🤭🤭🤭
Why why why! Is sick!
Well, you did say you wanted your Kanami showing off song.
8:03 That's one of the things that makes them so special.
As you said in another video, "Everyone has their moment to shine"
HGK = Ms crazy-ass-awsomeness Akane ..... Best album for years, anywhere.
Those " bees" is Miku!!! She has been doing that in several of their latest songs.......
"Will be Miku when they play live." Kanami records all the guitar parts (per Miku and Kanami's interview with Young Guitar). Miku has her work cut out for her learning to play these Unseen World songs live. Actually, they all do, and have said so in interviews. Like Rush when they recorded Hemispheres, they may have written music that was beyond what they could replicate live (at least when it was recorded). Helluva lot of work they put in for us as they grow as musicians, which when you consider where they already are, is just ridiculous. Love this band so much.
Crabuki I would be surprised if Miku has not already learned her parts on the guitar! That little kawaii bundle of a woman has a very determined personality and she usually accomplishes what she sets out to do....the proof is in the existence of this band! She wanted it and did everything possible to get it....including finding Saiki to replace her as lead singer for the band....taking a back seat on vocals was a tough choice she took for the good of the band! Not many of our current over inflated ego artists would have done the same!
Next one is Miku's song!! LETS GO!!!
They all referred to it as Nightingale.. I can remember that much better than the Saia-something-dory! Kanami also said that she wrote the solo for Miku... too cool! Can't wait to see that!
Nightingale is actually one of my fav songs on the album. I love how they wrote a song that goes sooo freaking well with Miku's voice without losing the 'BM-feel' .. It's also obvious how much Miku has improved and worked on herself!!! I feel like BM has stepped up their game in general by using more of Miku's backvocals in most songs too.. Just damn 👌❤️ can't stop listening to the whole album!
After WHY WHY WHY! One of the heaviest
Here is Misa's take on HGK (from the Young Guitar Interview... it has CC)
ruclips.net/video/JKvQ34ZYT9A/видео.html
She says she respects Kanami because the intro to this song looks like it is difficult according to her
"Chemical Reaction" ¡Uuf! my favorite of the whole album.
Kanami uses 2 harmonizer pedals. I know she may recorded it in different tracks and takes, but on live she uses the harmonizers, so yes, sometimes seems to be her playing 2 guitars (or more + some backing track, like in ONSET). Although last year she said 1 of the pedals (the "Eventide"?) was being used just for its "reverb effect", but she was looking forward to use that pedal as an harmonizer too. So, 1 year later... we really don't know now, haha!
Band Maid will be the next Grateful Dead, i.e., they will play their songs differently from concert to concert.
Me: is that Miku? That must be Miku! I WANT it to be Miku! I love her!!
Kanami about to challenge Dragon Force
There was a listening party of the Album yesterday. And the background here is that Saiki asked Kanami to make a song that combines alone and choose me, and she ended up making up a different song. 🤣
Miku's level is updated daily. Talent + hard worker
Kanami tweeted that this song has the most difficult guitar parts in the whole album. She is such a badass!
They killing it perfectly in every song! As you said, its Wicked Kanami job all way through! Great reaction dude👍🎸🔥🎸🔥
I am thinking that there are some sections in 5/4 and 3/4. I will definitely listen to this again a few more times. Or 800.
I had No Idea Kanami was THIS Good. How in the F*** could she improve this much in 1 year ?
In one of their recent interviews she said she had to practice like three weeks just for this track. To a non-guitarist like me it sounds freaking impossible, but she pulls it off anyway.
@@philcalvino884
Wow and She wrote the Song. My respect for her work Ethic is like Endless now.
Three weeks of practice for anything is A LOT. What a Queen. That She gives herself such hard tasks.
I love her So much as a guitar Player and as a composer, Kanami never disappointed me.
I am also not a musician but i understand different Levels of musical difficulty. Cause i listen to a lot of Instrumental Rock and Metal since 20 years by now.
Btw in an interview Kanami was asked if there is any track where she felt that she went overboard (songwriting) and this was her answer. She said she took 3 weeks continuous practicing to be able to play the intro good enough for the recording and that if she doesn’t keep practicing she probably won’t be able to play it properly live.
Kanami's tweets this morning during the #BMUWLP, she said that H G K came about from Saiki saying she wanted a song that merged Choose Me and Alone. Also said that she considers H G K to be the hardest guitar part for her so far. Akane tweeted that she couldn't figure out where to breathe so she just held her breath and went for it! She also said that she had to close the high-hat with her hand because her feet were too busy, lol... She's so crazy good!
@@mickypinestraw7866 yup Combination of Alone and Choose Me but she said the result is something else altogether and laughed about it.
No wonder I fell in love with this track the very first time I heard it, that main riff section just sounded so ridiculously nasty even to a complete musical noob like me. Man I hope this gets the next MV.
They all are hard worker, they probably practice and rehearse more than most bands. I used to see saiki as just a good singer. But now, she has blossomed into a great singer who can use her voice like an instrument, as well. Hats off to those 5 amazing musicians.
I think this and Black Hole are my most anticipated songs I want to hear live off the album.
You know man, it's about at this point that having watched and re-listened along with you to this, all these songs have a fire that could've come straight from an anime. They have that ferocious passion and crazy transition interplay that would go with stunning visuals soooo well. That post first chorus transition with the reverse gate drop is incredible in terms of what you might be expecting vs what you get.
Sounds like both of them at the same time Miku's brighter tone comes thru clearer but i can heard Kanami behind it.]
ok band maid is terrific !!! I understood that Miku write the lyrics and kanami the music ok right WE know the New hit masters since a long Time they Can be "the Fab five" sorry sirs Lennon/mccartney.
Hahaha dfinetily has that "Flight of the Bumblebee" vibe going one. LOVED THIS CRAZY SONG
First time listening to this song. OH. MY. GOD!
That guitar part strongly reminds me of Flight of the Bumblebee.
If that start switch up was legit Miku ... I think I'm gonna cry seeing that Happen live.
Miku has Come So far from just kinda holding the guitar like... what? 3 Years ago?! T_T
MISA!!! MISA!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃sounds like their fingers are flying as fast as 🐝➿🐝➿🐝➰
That did sound a lot like the tone of Miku's zemaitis flying V guitar to me.
Yes, it's a Kanami song. And again, Saikis part right after Kanamis solo (2:08), with MISA in the back - they love doing that - is soo good :)
BUT the interesting thing (or two) for me on this song is also in the lyrics.
H-G-K stands for a bomb -> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HGK_(bomb)
Miku basically found the word "bomb" as too simple and searched for a better name XD
Saiki apparently wanted the title to be something with a "Bang!", something "explosive" :D
(*)
And the second one... just blew my mind.
The song has a repeating lyrics line:
Saiki - "I'll cross my fingers"
Miku - "Go to hell"
Mikus one is in the background, not at the same volume, it's very "distant"
The first time you hear it at the 0:34 mark...
It's an old-school russian "custom" of saying
It's basically a "Good luck!" - "Don't jinx it!" response
"cross my fingers" for "good luck" is used in english too, but that "go to hell" response to it... oO
it's "К чёрту!" in russian - literal translation would "to the devil" -> "to hell (with you)"
that totally blew my mind. how the hell - or better where the hell - did she pull that one from?!
I'm not perfect in russian by any means (I'm fluent to get a conversation going, can write and read), I never used it in that context. That isn't something you "just" learn, it's more of an old custom. I've however heard the older-than-me generation use it - and they had to explain that meaning to me XD That's not something non-russians would use XD
And then Miku comes around and uses it casually in her lyrics. That's such a "Don't Dilly Dally" moment! Even more - she doesn't even speak the language in the slightest. With english - she at least understands it enough to read and going through a simple conversation. A russian way of phrasing however - WTH?!
HOW DOES SHE COME UP WITH - OR FINDS - THAT STUFF?! oO
WHAT PLACES DOES HER BRAIN GOES?!
(*)
Miku mentioned it in an recent interview: okmusic.jp/news/410674?page=2
You can run the text through google-translate - it does a pretty decent job on this one. Just keep in mind - if you have never used google-translate with band-maid before - Miku doesn't have a "husband and daughter", it's the way g-translate goes with "Masters and Princesses", also she and Kanami don't use "I" (like in "I did", implying "only me, no one else") that much, in a lot of cases it's a "we"...
miku mention in interview she usually get her lyric inspiration by going outside, but since covid happen she shifted to novel and manga, a whole ton lot of them from various genre. im pretty sure thats where she that old russian phrase.
Wow. Nice W.B. I never would have even guessed most of this.
Yeah, we all (... a lot of us) know by now that Band-Maids are geeky af. But there are still things like that all the time which surprise you. I knew they were a bunch of nerds since that Sailormoon band picture, so fairly early on. The backstage/daily-life posts of the band members show that side very clearly. It's known for a while that Miku is the band movie nerd, as well as reading a lot. She's searching for inspirations as she says, not wanting to write autobiographical stuff. Given the dark lyrics - I'm don't really believe that :P Who knows... Her mind certainly goes in some places.
They seem to have this ("free" mind) in common with Kanami.
Kanami listens to samba music - comes up with "Glory" (-> how? what?!), get's a request to make something in the vein of "Alone"/"Choose Me" and comes up with "H-G-K" - "well it turned out different than those two", laughs about it... Recently she mentioned she's into hip-hop now, we'll see where that goes...
Hey champ thank you for always giving miku attention on your reactions there are very few that do that and you for the most part keep it balanced but you have always pointed out miku . and the bee part will might be miku doing that she is good for doing that there are 2 other songs she has done something like that rinne is one . by the way AKANE!!!!!!! LOL
Kanami is the Beethoven of rock
If I'm not mistaken kanami said she does all guitars for the album then teaches miku her parts for live shows
Not bees, the Green Hornet!
Miku does seem to have a bigger role on this album both musically and vocally. I'm sure she's been working hard to improve herself.
i heard that kanami was the one who played all the guitar parts in the album
My one complaint of this album is it is LOUD. It takes up every inch of space and sucks the oxygen out of the room. I'd like a little breathing room but just like being at high altitudes (with lower oxygen) you adapt. This album has a learning curve.
Akane said in an interview that Miku has a heavy and thick sound at the backing parts.
ref: ruclips.net/video/JKvQ34ZYT9A/видео.html
The effect on the guitar in the end is so crazy nice. Like one guitar getting duller sounding, like drowning and at the same time another one is rising up. It's really short, is anyone else hearing that?
I think on a couple tracks Kanami played both the lead and rhythm for the album version where Miku plays it live. I'm not sure if this is one of those tracks. I love the crazy-ass guitar on this one, though! It seems like this is Kanami's song in the same way I Still Seek Revenge was Misa's. (and you said that literally half a second after I typed that).
@@alkidd2140
It’s because Koba is super busy during recording times.
MISA I love 💕 that she is always up front.
The difference in the second part sounds like Kanami added tremolo picking in the middle... a technique along with sweep picking that she was excited to add to her repertoire this album. 😊
Thanks again! Did you enjoy the Warning! MV?
Some part feels like PinklySmooth (Jimmy the Rev's sideband)
Someone said this song will be the next MV they release next.....
Okay i officaially GIVE UP trying to Press Band Maid into a Genre. I give up. They are their own Genre with this Song right here.
MISA MISA MISA!
🥃🥃🥃
I love this song, but it's so hard for me to tell what's going on in some parts. lol.
all the more reason to keep replaying it over and over!
LeCHAMP #BandMaid
Coming up next: Miku's solo
AKANE👍👍👍👍
0:38 to 0:40 Looks like Kanami s playing froze Time.
as far as i know Miku still does not play on recordings
That was my understanding from the Young Guitar interview. Then she learns and plays the part for okyu-jis. They hinted that the process for recording may change in the future.
リードボーカリストの厚見 彩姫のお父様は、あの伝説の日本のロックバンド「VOWWOW」のキーボーディスト、渥見玲衣です。Lead vocalist Saiki's father is Rei Atsumi, the keyboardist of the legendary Japanese rock band "VOWWOW".
@
I love your reactions..... but you pause WAY too much. Let us hear a few bars at least - you're pausing every other note, dude! haha
you know what, theres always the full interupted mv in the their official channel. personally im here for those pause 👍
@@fikriirshade1132 I agree. I can watch MV anytime
Why watch a reaction video if you don’t want them to react......
Miku does get a couple of lead parts in "Manners" You can clearly see them during the MV.
