BAND-MAID / Warning! (Official Live Video)

The drummer is clearly living her best life -- and it made me wonder how long it's been since I was *that* happy about *anything*. And I realized it was right now, watching her drum.

[@jan-ovepedersen5764]

We the Band-Maidiacs have to work hard to spread the word. I just recently found Band-Maid myself, I have no idea why I didn't find them earlier. I found Rolling Quartz right after their first single release "Blaze" in January and started to listen to them, saw comments and got suggestions on YT about Band-Maid. I didn't click at first, why I don't know, but finally I did and I'm totally in LOVE with Band-Maid and bought their entire catalogue. They are an awesome live band and their music is just great, they yet have to write a mediocre song, they are high quality for sure.

[@ChicagoJ351]

I keep trying to get Rick beato to do a video on band maid, yet he never does. He talks about how Rock isn’t what it used to be and how we need young bands that sell out stadiums. And here is band maid, yet he never covers them.

コロナ禍でライブの機会は減ったかもしれない。しかし、演奏のトータルのパワーはアップし続けている。ドラムとベースの強力な土台の上に、ツインギターの絡みが今まで以上にタイトになった。そして、何よりもユニゾンを駆使したボーカルのエモさは、魂を揺さぶる。ステージが減った分、相当の演奏リハーサルをしていることがうかがえる。表現者としての成長を感じる。最高だ。

I have recently discovered this band. I am not kidding when I say that these women bring me to tears. I can’t even explain how brilliant they are and why they elicit this kind of emotion in me. I have been playing the guitar for 59 years and precious few musicians have affected me like this. One of the reasons why they affect me emotionally is that, even though they are singing in a language that I will never understand, they have impacted an old man’s life tremendously-and they will never know it. I hope they realize how incredible they are.

@@Eyrothath Honestly, after she had the throat polyp surgery she got a new vocal coach (with Miku as well, iirc). That's made a huge difference in her power and sound. They also use a lot of backing tracks on live performances to augment her vocals. Just gives her sound a little more layered sound.

AKANEさんは楽しそうにドラムを叩くなぁ 音楽の疾走感も相まって、見てるこっちまで楽しくなる！

Love it that Akane is grinning like a Cheshire cat through most of this, especially on her 4 bar drum roll! Maids rock hard - I recently did a 6 hour road trip with all 8 of their albums on repeat, and never got bored. I will fly literally anywhere in the U.S. to see them as soon as they come out here again!

I can hear you. I will fly to Japan if I have to, I live in Norway about 14 hours flying time to Tokyo :-)

To navigate in a dense fog, just head towards the sound of Sai-chan's vocals. It doesn't matter where you were going initially, because this is a much better destination!
