Great reaction. I came across this Band a year ago and now have all their CDs, listen to them everyday and have seen them in concert (Anaheim). You must see them live and they will do Cali again!

Good pick-up on Misa's amazing magic sleight-of-hand technique during her bass solo in making her pick just vanish into thin air while she is playing. She is an incredible bassist.

Band-Maid always brings an ONSET of love, appreciation and happiness to their viewers. Why? Because they're so damn good -- good-natured, good-hearted, good-looking, and beyond good as writers, players and performers. Wow, right?! BTW - Your viewers will have a better experience if you CRANK your music playback volume. Band-Maid ain't no dinner music! 🤘🏻😉

It's called tapping. Eddie Van Halen was one of the pioneers of using that technique for playing a guitar.

4:06 it's two-handed tapping. the late eddie van halen made it his trademark technique and synonymous to his name.

Thanks for the reaction and comments. Check out Play! (official live video). It was originally composed as an instrumental but Saiki loved the song and asked Miku to write lyrics so she could be in on the fun. Cheers!

Saiki the lead singer has had throat surgery in the past so the band are very careful with her voice. They play 2+ hour sets so to give Saiki a break around mid-set they do three things. 1. Play an instrumental, 2. Miku (rhythm guitar) takes lead vocals for a song or two (she usually has one track per album where she is lead vocalist) and 3. Miku will do her legendary and hilarious "Magic Time" MC set. Then Saiki comes back on to finish the set. Even though Saiki no longer needs a break nowadays, it's become more of a tradition. So yeah, they have a number of really cool instrumental tracks. Check out the MV of "From Now On" for another instrumental banger! Can you please turn the music up, I can hardly hear anything - and my headphones and volume are on 10. That guitar technique is known as 'tapping', the correct term is hammer-on's and pull offs.

@TlanImass6 ай бұрын
It's not just a showcase. It's also to give a rest to their lead vocalist (Saiki Atsumi) mid-set. She previously had surgery on her vocal cords so they instituted this part. Usually it's a song with second vocalist (Miku Kobato) singing lead, followed by an instrumental track, followed by a mini "comedy show". (In reality it is called Omajinai Time based off the Maid Cafes.) :D

In one of the interviews, Kanami mentioned when there is no singer in a song. The lead guitar IS the singer and she always emphasizes that.

As usual Akane is demonstrating Neil P level drumming skill but just subtly part of the main event and on her aggressive little Michael Shrieve /Keith Moon size kit. Sometimes if you follow her basic groove and fills you realise that some prog guy with a kit the size of kansas is not doing more in a solo.

bigger kits doesnt mean bigger skills. a badass drummer can make a kick and snare work. glad to hear another amazing drummer showing of the skills

Alright, I know people are complaining about the volume. I think it’s fine as long as you are able to hear it well. Turning it up wouldn’t hurt, but the music dropping out some while you talk is also helpful… Anyway, it’s a difficult balance to strike and I don’t envy you the task. As far as music videos you should check out there are some fun ones. Warning Afterlife Shambles Don’t you tell me Don’t let me down

Great reaction, TGR. But, you still have that MV volume too low imho. Definitely needs a 20-30% increase. 🤷🏻♂️. Other than that, well done! Next - something different - “Sayonakidori” - official live Christmas Okyuji video Take care, volume up, and rock on 🤘🏼🔥🎸🥁🎤🌎🎹🎼😎✌🏼

Thanks for reacting to what is possibly my favorite Band-Maid song. And as viewers have said, the volume on the video was way too low and nonexistent when you spoke. Your mic volume should not be louder than the video IMO.
