I had the pleasure of meeting Yuko Suzuhana (vocals), Kiyoshi Ibukuro (koto), and Daisuke Kaminaga (shakuhachi) at a convention last year. All three of them are very kind; Yuko even complimented my pre-school level Japanese speaking ability.
This Japanese Group is mind blowing Amazing 😉! If I get the opportunity to travel to JAPAN 🇯🇵...this would be the reason I would go there. Each one ☝🏽 the members has fantastic skills in their own way! 🙇🏻♀️🔍👏🏽🕊🙏🏽❤️🗺
such a good band, an interesting concept done really really well, another interesting folk/metal band is the swiss band Eluveitie. Rebirth is a good song by them
I LOVE how Japanese mix traditional with modern rock/metal. These guys are amazing! Thanks for reviewing. OH! Yoshida Brothers are kind of the first guys I heard mix traditional with modern rock. Good stuff, both!
Thank you for reaction.They are live performance wonderful than music videos. This live performance is also really cool. 【和楽器バンド / 反撃の刃（2018.1.27横浜アリーナ）】 Wagakki Band-Hangekino yaiba/2018.1.27 yokohama Arena
Waggaki Band...they arent just musician but they are Gods and Goddess and engineers of their own musical instruments... Suzuhana Yuko - Vocals Machiya - Guitar Asa - Bass Wasabi - Drums Beni Ninagawa - Tsugari Shamisen (traditional 3 string guitar) Kurona - Wadaiko ( traditional drums) Kiyoshi - Koto ( traditional harp) Daisuke - Sakuhachi ( traditional flute) ...sir i recommend to please do comment to their other songs.. -Ignite -Sunwheel -Valkyrie -Okinotayuu -Zenbonsakura -Perfect Blue ( live ) -Subaku no Komoruita -Tengaku -Ame Nochi Kajouron -Sasameyuki -Yuki kage boushi and still more.. I be following your reactions sir..... im not a japanese.....I one of their Fans.... Im a Filipino... Thank You and God bless..
amazing band.. wow.. i like the combination of modern anda traditional music.. very cool.. by the way, i recommended you to watch Lagi Syantik (SING-OFF) Reza Darmawangsa VS Salma, they're awesome.. i'm sure you'll love it..
Very, very nice choice! Love Wagakki Band and this was definitely one of their best songs. To give a little clarity though, this is actually their take on a vocaloid song of the same name, "Senbonzakura". And despite the audible tone of the song, the lyrics are actually about the Westernization of Japan from a fairly grim perspective. It's a pretty literal translation, but Wagakki Band did include English subs on their music video for the song if you want to take a look at them. ruclips.net/video/K_xTet06SUo/видео.html
The original version live in New York by Hatsune Miku with subtitles. ruclips.net/video/yiHw4KkjEiI/видео.html It was even turned into a Kabuki play and performed on stage. ruclips.net/video/t5AqgOwcI3U/видео.html
I had the same reaction when I first learned about them. It was their song, Kishikaisei and my mouth was open from beginning to end. They're just awesome.
A couple of song of this band: - Akatsuki no Ito: ruclips.net/video/OqwysRHT3RQ/видео.html - Hangeki no Yaiba: ruclips.net/video/mljjd4ge448/видео.html
I think WAGAKKI BAND is likely to play at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, so please remember. Recommended Videos 「Strong Fate」PV / 「Akatsukino Ito」PV / 「華振舞」hanafurumai 2016 Live / Tengaku (Live)
I know I'm like a year late to comment, but hear this one. The shakuhachi. Those guys play it without inhaling into lungs. Sounds crazy, right? It's a technique where one inhales from nose, and straight up exhales it from mouth. It allows for indefinite duration of sound. Those shakuhachi players just passing air via nose to play the instrument.
i never really had a favourite band I idolised before, until i found wagakki band. holy shit they are awesome! i can barely choose a favourite song from them, since i love all their songs. though top 3 i would recommend would have to be "hana ichi monme", "yukyo maichire" and "akatsukino ito".
The music video for this song is excellent as well. Another good song from the Wagakki Band which is a visual and audio kei is the track 'Kishikaisei' : ruclips.net/video/wKEAZv-w89Q/видео.html
Another band that everyone needs to check out: Sokoninaru (そこに鳴る) The only way I can describe this band (Masaki - guitar, male vocals: Misake - bass, female vocals; unknown - drums) is if you took the guitar, bass and drums from Babymetal, and the vocals from Hello Sleepwalkers or Ling Tosite Sigure and told them to do a rock/punk/metal/jazz/alternative mashup. Should be hit or miss, but this IMO is definitely a hit ... haven't been this blown away by a sound so completely 'new' since BABYMETAL and/or Wagakki Band. Here's two of their latest songs: From March 2018 (already over 1.1M views): 掌で踊る (Dancing with Palm) ruclips.net/video/n7MyoBki9wk/видео.html From August: re:program: ruclips.net/video/8OM58AreiNI/видео.html
Big Kai, they were the petals of the cheery blossom flowers the song is written about. It is a story of war in a pacifist nation and what happens to those who fight or rebel. Hence the notion to shoot them with the ray gun, hit them with an ICBM, time on the guillotine, and finally escaping the guillotine. On a side note, Beni had a successful career as a model before she joined Wagakki Band.
Very interesting band with traditional instruments! Another similar band would be Kiryu - a visual kei band. Please react to Galneryus - Angel of salvation :)
I am just suggesting a few Big Bang songs that I have seen in the comments before from a few people - Mama 2015 Performance - Love Song M/V - 2011 - Bad Boy M/V - 2012 -Tonight M/V - 2011
So basically they take (with permission) one of the most popular songs of miku and baam! Now a lot of people know them? I mean they have good music but meh
Lovin' these reactions for Japanese music! Please react to Hello Sleepwalkers - New World. Or any of their other songs because they are really awesome. Thank you! Looking forward to your other Japanese reactions
@@LostinMPK it's fun to explore more JMusic because of its complexities and unique variations, plus the way they present it to the audience. Just be careful with the copyright issues since Japanese media is stricter than the west. Anyway, I really hope that you'll get to react to Hello Sleepwalkers. Thank you!
Hey guys my daughter and watch your one ok rock vids and she asked if you could react to one ok rock "pierce live at Yokohama arena " very sad song but taka is amazing. Thanks guys
Unfortunately I do not play any traditional Japanese instruments, but I do own a shamisen. I do play the guitar a little, but I am not that good...haha. My cousin used to play the koto and my grandmother used to play the koto and samisen. When I was a child, I was able to play sakura a little... Big Kai
This is a great tune, while it sounds like a traditional song it is actually from Vocaloid, an animated music program. Senbonzakura means 10,000 cherry blossoms, near as I can tell it is about Japan losing it's identity being westernized.
React to Sekai No Owari please! They are one of the best and unique japanese band ruclips.net/video/sHJKQT4A3_0/видео.html And their live was so fucking awesome
二人の落ち着いたReactionが好きです。日本の音楽を沢山楽しんで頂けると嬉しいです。

Have you seen either the music video or concert video of "Desert Lullaby" by Wagakki band? Both are amazingly beautiful.

Wow! You are right about the lyrics not matching the tempo/feeling of the actual music. Pretty grim lyrics. - Big Z

@@DavidClark-dkc Funny, the Wagakki version has about 4-5 times as many views than Miku's.
thanks for the Reaction...I loved it.:)
Waggaki band is most favorite japanese rock so far
Fun with koto, shamisen, shakuhachi...and Western instruments.

Here's two of their latest songs:

yeah I know you guys love stuff like that
I wonder how it would be if Waggaki Band would do a world tour with the Hu.. (the Mongolian metal band).
Does anyone have a link to the original uploaded video from Wagakki Band? Having a hard time looking for it.
Big Kai, they were the petals of the cheery blossom flowers the song is written about. It is a story of war in a pacifist nation and what happens to those who fight or rebel.

This is a great tune, while it sounds like a traditional song it is actually from Vocaloid, an animated music program.
Senbonzakura means 10,000 cherry blossoms, near as I can tell it is about Japan losing it's identity being westernized.
So it is a Vocaloid song. That's what I thought, I was confused for a moment XD I actually like the Vocaloid version better, what about you?
Is it my imagination or am I getting a Night wish vibe here?
