Thanks! Some of the best Band Maid reactions are from musicians like yourself. You are right about Misa, the bassist. She's definitely one of the best out there. One of my favorite things about Band Maid is how heavy bass-focused their music are. In most of the bands I listened to growing up in the 80's and 90's, the focus was always on the singer and not the other band members. It is so refreshing to see a band like Band-Maid where every member gets to shine equally. I think it is an important part of their success.
And a rare glimpse of Miku's gorgeous custom Mother of Pearl Zemaitis guitar, now tucked away at home in a safe place......and that brilliant Zemaitis tone!!!! Just a great kick-you-in-the-face song.......definitely in my top 100 Band-Maid songs.
It's always fun to see someone who likes Band Maid as much as I do. I'll keep watching as long as you keep reacting. Try NO GOD live. If you think you want to buy this album, do it. I can guarantee there are some things on there that are great and there's also a song called ROCK IN ME that Miku sings. She's the rhythm guitarist who actually started the band and writes about 95% of the lyriics. Kanami writes the templates for most of the songs and the rest of the members figure out their parts from that and Saiki is quality control. Akane and Misa are the muscular backbone. Anyway, World Domination is a great album that in many ways reminds me of Led Zeppelin 4. On a side note, if you didn't know it, Jimmy Page was so impressed with Akane's drumming when they were in England years ago he went backstage to meet her. Anyway, enjoy.
Just a word of warning on the combination of a B-M cd and a moving vehicle, in over 40 years of driving I'd never picked up a single infraction, bought a B-M cd put it in the car and managed to get two speeding tickets in as many weeks 🥴🤣 both times to their song So What. Glad you're enjoying the Maids they really are next level phenomenal 👍🍻
MISA! MISA! MISA! 💜 She just posted some great photos of her custom bass on instagram. Even the case for it is *badass* with a sugar skull and the BAND-MAID logo.
3:00 I've had this CD constantly in my truck's CD player for three years. (6 other CDs are in my car's changer and 5 more in the carousel of the home stereo.)
Thanks for the reaction and comments. FIRE in the house!!!!!! It’s Band-Maid. You just gained a new subscriber. Looking forward to more B-M reactions going forward. Cheers!
Candy or Whip, as long as it's from Band-Maid, I'm in! This was the second song I heard from these amazing ladies, and it just blew me away! MISA, MISA, MISA! Kanami is on fire! Akane is beating those drums like they owe her money, lol!

Dice is just quintessential, hard rock Band-Maid at its finest. Thx, Mr. X!

This was my go-to song for a long time when introducing people to Band-Maid. It has a pretty good success rate 😎🤘
Yeah I can see why. It’s awesome
"All of the players in the band are so important..." Truer words were never spoken. The epitome of what a real band should be.
MISA! MISA! MISA! 💜

Nice and welcome
I think now you might want to check out the live performance of Dice and Hate? together at Lollapalooza.
I want both. The candy AND the whip!
Yeah. Eating candy while Saiki whips you. I know your sort man. 😁
Possibly my favorite Band-Maid song. That Misa to Kanami transition gives me chills every time. Love the punk rock Band-Maid stuff.

MISA MISA MISA!!!!! wait WHAT Metalica has a Bassist holy sh!%
You haven't checked out The Warning yet? 3 sisters from Mexico worth checking out.

Be careful playing Band-Maid in the car... unless you have unlimited cash with which to pay speeding tickets!
