Being the intro for the Anime "Log Horizon" means it's non-stop & in your face with no time to pause or a full on Kanami solo. It's not on B-M's new album "Unseen World".

[@johnnylaroux9517]

The Spotify Release has two xTra tracks well worth Streaming, on Repeat.....

[@OhWaker]

A fun fact is an important character in Log Horizon is also called Kanami.

[@jacobusderottmann1000]

So instead, everybody does pretty much a solo all the way through, flat out.

[@dicodec]

Totally goofed and forgot to turn on those subtitles to see the translation. We are going to go live Friday to discuss more details about the song!

[@Masterkitty0184]

who needs translation? :)

[@Bannysadkosays2u]

I've seen too many reactors focussing on the subtitles, while the video is rolling on more or less in the background of their field of view. I like the way you guys did it. You can always check it out with the lyrics after you finish recording. Anyway, GREAT reaction boys!!! Band Maid are the current queens of rock!!

[@Kevin6059]

You accidentally did the right thing. They're great lyrics but this song has so much going on that trying to pay attention to the music while reading the lyrics about made my brain explode!

[@xagorvangard]

Band-Maid delivering a blistering, fast-paced, frantic of a headbanger. So much going on in this song. It needs to go on repeat to be able to appreciate the song in it's entirety. It is "Different" than most of their popular songs but it just shows what Band-Maid is capable of. They are just so talented in many levels. Btw, there is subtitle in this song. Just need to turn on "cc". Btw, Happy Birthday Eric!!!

[@dicodec]

We know we will go live on Friday and talk about the lyrics!

[@johnnylaroux9517]

Let There Be ROCK..... Band-Maid ROCK!

Akane beat the hell out of those drums...and of course MISA killing it!!

[@dicodec]

As is expected haha

[@timcorder5553]

Happy Birthday Eric! It was interesting that Alan said his favorite Band-Maid song (before this one) was thrill. When the background went all white in the latter part of the song, my first thought was "Thrill reference". First song they will play on their next live set . . . guaranteed.

[@4thArmoredVet]

No one breaks down BAND-MAID or LOVEBITES like you guys. You really know what you're talking about. I really appreciate the way you reinforce my take on these monsters or musical talent. Happy Birthday Eric!

[@dicodec]

Oh wow, thanks so much fam!

[@MoopOwO]

They also released another beautiful instrumental alongside this called don't be long, but as far as i can tell it's not officially on KZbin yet. Just on streaming services right now, but if it pops up on KZbin you definitely gotta check it out

[@dicodec]

We will be sure to check it out!

[@Ezekku]

Akane going craaazy here! The main riff reminds me of an old song "Screaming", it's amazing and I'm duper hyped for the new album! And happy birthday Eric!

[@dicodec]

Akane always killing it! That new record is going to be lit! Also thank you!!

[@DaElfer]

I love how usually kanami and misa usually play parts that compliment each other but there is the part where they play the exact same thing that just doubles up on it so sweet

Wry true that is pretty amazing!

Great reaction again gents! It took me quite a few listens to fully appreciate all of the layers of this song!!!

[@dicodec]

Thanks fam! Glad you enjoyed it🤘

[@David-yt6kp]

This is the most anime song they've ever done, which makes sense, because that's what it was written for.

[@dicodec]

That is awesome!

[@War624]

"Glory" was also used for one as well. One of the Yu-Gi-Oh shows.

[@David-yt6kp]

@@War624 Yes it was. I was just saying I think this song has even more of an anime feel than glory. Which is not a bad thing. Both songs were written for anime.

[@War624]

@@David-yt6kp Oh yeah, for sure. As soon as I heard this, I could easily see why it was picked up for Log Horizon. A lot of J Rock OP's have that in your face wall of sound, in a similar way to what this song does. Glory definitely wasn't your typical sounding anime pick.

[@Puyax01]

I think this is the most technical review you have done, it really shows how much you guys like it. Good job. Keep it up.

[@brianbuchmeier]

@@dicodec Definitely recommended when you get a chance.

[@outwest1014]

Happy Birthday Eric You will just react again with the lyrics, right! An excellent Band Maid song as usual. As for me, I saw flashes of "Thrill" with the white background with them standing in the same order. Appreciated the English subs, I'm sure they did it for their western fans. I read that Miku in Japan is a respected lyricist for the poetic flow of her lyrics. It was nice to see an excellent translation in the subs underlining Miku's talent/skill with lyrics.

[@brettmarlar4154]

Happy Birthday Eric!!! May it be the rockingest one yet, with many more to come!!! You started it off right with this brand new banger from the Maids!!! Kanami has had this Green PRS for a while. She has a couple purple and green ones. You know this HAS to be a show opener. You can't start a song like that and not open with it. There is a lot happening here, as a mixing engineer, the gain staging had to be a nightmare, so shout out to them!!

[@dicodec]

Thanks so much Brett!

[@joshi_new_wave]

Yes! You got to it quickly, it’s so good. On the single there’s also an awesome instrumental called “Don’t Be Long” that I hope you guys get to soon because it’s awesome. And an 89 second version of this one. And happy burf day E-Dawg!

[@dicodec]

Thanks man! It stressed Alan out but he pulled through in the end haha. I'm sure we will do that song soon enough. Making sure to react to 2-3 BM songs every meet up.

@@dicodec You might have to do what you do with MTH for it and just react to the audio. Which would still be great.

@@dicodec I’ll try to make that. I’m in the middle of a move so, sorry if I can’t make it. I already put in my Patreon pick for this month though. In the Patreon app.

[@leonardsimmers9158]

Happy Birthday Eric! God, I love this new song. I've already listened to it 30-40 times. Like you Alan, I probably going to listen to it another 200+ times. Loved everything about this song. Gorilla Queen Akane and Misa's driving drum and bass line. Which always sounds glorious. And Kanami on beast mode, on that lead. Wish she'd had a longer solo. But, I understand that this song is for the Anime 'Log Horizon'! So I suppose, it's supposed to be frantic, and in your face. So likely no time for Kanami to actually do a solo. I suppose she is kind of soloing through the song. And, of course, fantastic vocals from Saiki and Miku. Not forgetting Miku holding the rhythm on the guitar with Akane and Misa. Miku's guitar work has really improved. She could probably play a solo or two herself these days. Oh! I nearly forgot. It'll be Akane's 30th birthday on December 14th. Also, along with this song,. They dropped their instrumental. "Don't Be Long" along side this on Spotify. Band-Maid just get better and better.

We are going to talk about the lyrics on Fridays live stream!

[@Greish-esquire]

Its quite funny, they have all been in lockdown obviously, so Kanami's sending all her demo's over the internet to fellow band members including this one. Akane, Drums (Tokyo School of Music Grad) plus at least 6 other instruments, sent reply "This is HARD". In this recording Kanami plays both lead and rhythm guitar and wrote the B side to this single, an instrumental which is AWESOME, so Miku could practice her Diminished 7th chords at speed so She could perfom it live! What a Guitarist Sensei ! .... Misa, also (Tokyo School of Music Grad), "Whatever" :)

[@dicodec]

Oh wow!

BTW: That looks ike the same green PRS Custom Kanami's had for a few years. As far as I know, the purple one came later. She played the purple one on US tour last year - I think I heard the green one was in the shop back in Japan.

Kanami is a woman who knows rock well. As long as she is a band-made brain, she will succeed. The melody is pop J rock, but the background is completely hard rock. Bass and drums are the lifeline of this band. If it were a safe world this year, Band-Maid would have achieved world domination. Did you see the other two hours of online live?
