    @unattributed1641 3 года назад +73

    The best way to describe Band Maid (Imo) is they are the real deal, the complete package. They write nearly all of their own music: lead guitarist Kanami writes the music, harmony guitarisr/having vocalist Miku writes the lyrics. Misa, the bassist had a side range of techniques in her repertoire including using a pick, finger style, and slapping. Her choices are based on the style of song, and the tone of her bass. Akane, the drummer, is the kind of drummer you can use to calibrate an atomic clock. Jimmy Page heard her in Tokyo in 2016 and was so impressed that he went backstage after the show to meet her. And Saiki's voice is simply amazing, she has three registers I've heard, and diaphragm support the separate her from many singers.

    You need to watch them play live, they are even better - Domination, Moratorium, Onset, Play, Real Existence... Band Maid is the best rock band on the planet, with the best rhythm section. As a bassist, you'll quickly learn to appreciate Misa and Akane's skills. Misa often switches between picking, slapping, and finger style in the same song. Kanami is an incredible guitarist, and an even better composer. Miku is the lyricist and rhythm guitar player, only picked up the guitar when the band started. Saiki is incredible, and has been unleashed after some polyp surgery.

    The bassist MISA frequently switches between picking and slapping mid song. If you watch their live stuff you can see her doing it. She frequently gets solos in songs and in general she doesn't play a standard bass role. She almost plays a lead bass role. You'll see her constantly moving up and down the neck.

  • @realdocloco
    @realdocloco 3 года назад +56

    Some random infos: 1/ Misa doesn't only plays with a pick - it depends on the song, she's great at slapping too and plays fingerstyle on some others song (ballads usually) 2/ they're a live band - and their songs are usually even better live 3/ their musical range is wide - they consider themselves a "hard rocking band" rather than a hard rock band 4/ they compose and write their music since they started recording full albums (4) 5/ they're not only amazing musicians - they're extremely entertaining and funny too 6/it's always such a pleasure to watch musicians discovering them, great reaction!

    Thanks for reacting, formed in 2013 by Rhythn Guitarist and vocalist Miku Kobato. Seven Major releases so far three mini albums and four full albums with the last released Digitally on the 13th this year With a Physical release on the 20th.
    The idea behind the band is the contrast between the visuals and then the sound and also the sound and the lyrics.
    Members (ages between 24 to 30)
    Akane Hirose ;- Drums (A-chan. the beast,Gorilla)
    Saiki Atsume :- Vocals (Sai-chan)
    MISA :- Bass :- (the Assasin. Misa, Misa, Misa)
    Kanami Tono :- Guitars (Mincho, main songwriter)
    Miku Kobato :- Rhythm Guitar, Vocals, Lyricist (Small Pigeon, wide shoulders, strong grip, Karuppo) Kobato in Japanese can be interpreted as small pigeon and Miku never met a pun she didn't like or a chance to mess with peoples heads Po!!.
    Also they have a slightly twisted sense of humour, for example the single Alone was released on Valentines day, and for the last two years on April fools day they rename themselves, the bands social media as Band Maiko where they dress as apprentice geisha's and release a video of a song written in the geisha dialect with some traditional instruments in it.
    Relentless live band due to having played basically anywhere they could plug in they also tend to add extra parts to the songs live , The costumes might have got their foot in the door but they have earned what they have gotten the old fashioned way, Worked hard, Toured hard, and constantly look to improve.

The bassist, Misa, is shy and mostly silent in band interviews, but mention Paz Lenchantin and there's no stopping her.

    MISA plays with a pick, and plucks too. In fact in the track Onset (a live instrumental, on their channel) she does both...in the middle of the same solo. She does a bit of slapping from time to time for good measure. There are better bass players than MISA. There are better guitarists than Kanami. There are better drummers than Akane. What you'll struggle to find is a band who have all three at their level.

    I see a lot of people have written a lot about them. I used to work as a session bassist for about 10 year. The first time I heard the bassist, Misa, I was mindblown. I honestly can't think of very many that are at her level playing this kind of music. There are a lot of bassists that would use half of what she does in this song as a solo. She does that without it getting chaotic or show offy. Would love to hear you do a video of this! I'm glad you gave Saiki, the singer, a lot of love. She's sometimes get a bit forgotten because people tend to get so blown away by the musicians. You really should check out their live stuff. I'd recommend 'Domination' as a good start!

    Please try more BAND-MAID songs. There are bunch of good songs and live version as well.
    Maybe “Domination (live)” or “Onset” next...

    welcome to the army of Madiacs! Misa the bassist (a.k.a. The Barefoot Assassin Maid) actually revolutionized the bass play: she turned the bass guitar into a starring instrument: she plays a bass lead where it fits; she can switch between picking, slapping/popping, finger picking and even tapping, sometimes within the same song live seamlessly in a blink of an eye.
    Band-Maid already released 100+ songs (mostly composed/written by themselves) ranking from good ones to the masterpieces. There is not a single stinker/filler in their catalog. So be ready for an incredible journey into the world of Band-Maid rock.

    Best Hard rock band on the Planet, no exceptions. They can play anything from soft Rock, through Jazz and funk Rock, traditional blues rock, and metal.
    They make ridiculously complex music, I don't think they've ever played a song where the second verse didn't have some form of variation, rarely stick to the usual western formula of verse/chorus/verse/chorus/bridge/chorus to fade. They have legitimately 30 tracks that are better than anything the US has produced in 20 years.
    MISA often switches from pick to slap mid solo.
    Other really good Japanese bands in no particular order: Lovebites, Aldious, Ningen Isu, Maximum the hormone, Fern Planet, Trident and Babymetal (if you are into that sort of thing).

    Kanami mentioned in a recent interview that covid19 lockdowns has turned her into a "riff machine". Akane, Misa as well, also mentioned they took this period as a unique opportunity to work on their current "lackings" in drums and bass. Miku Kobato spoke about how this forced idle times without concerts has given her the opportunity to write many songs lyrics. Saiki did not say much, but all the fans can hear her significant vocal improvement over the last year. The whole band worked at improving their musical cohesion. So this albuml is truly excellent. I must admit I was slightly concerned following the issue of Conqueror in which I saw a transition album, hoping our beloved ladies were not loosing their incredible creativity momemtum. I am fully reassured now and even thinking a better Band-Maid is just coming ahead.

    • @bobespirit2112
      @bobespirit2112 2 года назад +1

      I understand what you’re saying and I’m not disagreeing but I do think the explorations on Conqueror, the softer elements and more expansive soundscapes, despite maybe a few less exciting tunes, is exactly the thing that makes a band better and better. Rush was famous for taking that type of approach, one exploratory album (Permanent Waves) followed by a more cohesive, refined album (Moving Pictures) that raised their overall level in songwriting, composing, arrangement, etc. I hope Band Maid keeps following that approach and we get a more exploratory album after the refinements of Unseen World. I think it’ll serve them well in the long run, imho. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤘🏼🎸

    MISA is the name of the bass player. She plays a signature “Black Smoker” bass made by Black cloud guitars.
    Suggestions? Dice, Blooming, Rinne for studio. But you should hear them live - Freedom, Onset, Play, Wonderland and Domination.
    The band are:
    Saiki Atsumi. Lead vox
    Miku Kobato. Rhythm guitar and backing vox
    Akane Hirose. Drums
    Kanami Tono. Lead guitar
    MISA. Bass guitar
    As far as other J-metal or J-rock bands go, check out Gacharic spin - they’re a lot of fun and awesome players. Their bassist, F chopper Koga is a beast. I like their video for “Generation Gap”(choose the one from 3 months ago)
    Of course there is Baby Metal - check out “Rondo of Nightmares with Mischief of gods intro”
    Finally, Wagaki band. There’s a video of them performing their song “Homura” live that was pretty incredible.
    Have fun falling down the J-rock rabbit hole!

    Misa slaps, strums, picks, and will grasp her pick between middle and index when not picking. She switches between styles frequently. Yes, watch more Band-Maid, all their songs are good.
    They do mostly hard rock and they do it very well. But watch out for their slow, sad songs, on which the two vocalists really shine. "About Us" and "Page" come to mind. "Daydreaming" is another one.

    Watch ANYTHING live from Club Shibuya or Zep Tokyo. You are going to be amazed. This is from the new album that's just come out. Misa can tap, pick or slap. It doesn't matter. She's called the Silent Assassin. Plays in her bare feet, drinks whiskey on stage. Watch live Onset, not the MV, for an instrumental. They're just too good. They're better live than studio if you're concerned. This song is just one facet of their abilities and Kanami, the GTR, writes most of the music and Miku, Rhythm, writes the lyrics.
    This will make your toes tap and give an indicator what they're capable of. ruclips.net/video/o6ohWYAD4uo/видео.html
