[@glenkelley6799]

Thank you for continuing to react to Band-Maid. In my opinion one of the best hard rock bands that I've heard in the last 30 years. Band-Maid is a group of extremely talented musicians that have consistently created some of the best rock around. Not to say that there have not been talented women in rock before (Pat Benatar, Joan Jett, Heart, Janis, Suzi Quatro, Vixen, etc) but an all female hard rock band is very rare and at the level that they play at is even more rare.

[@EbefrenRevo]

They are pure rock power. 5 japanese ladies saved rock. More very good live stuff : Play, Onset, Take me Higehr, (Turn me on, if you find it, if not just listen it, its amazing), Freedom, Blooming, Real Existence, Moratorium.

[@markmathewssgbcpenaltyboxs6389]

We are passionate about them because they have instilled that in us! Thanks for reacting to them!

[@weilima9316]

The ladies will always appreciate the addition of a female fan. No doubt about that.

[@stevehall5128]

It's so frustrating that there aren't more female Maidiacs, seems like women love them if they actually see/hear them, especially live cuz of the positive vibes onstage. Although women often seem to be especially attuned to lyrics, so maybe the language barrier is a bit of an issue.

[@mr559]

"Welcome home Masters and Princesses!" It's definitely awesome to see more female fans.

[@themcusbleedingedge]

Your reactions to the Maids are always really fucking cool to watch. There are several other Band Maid fans that I'm familiar with both from the reactions I have done and engaging with them in my comment sections, and then others I have met just from watching reactions like yours and talking with them through comment sections. I have never watched any of your other reactions besides a few of the ones I have caught like this one, and this is actually the second time I have watched you do Domination just because I am subbed to you so you pop up in my feed I guess, when I was scrolling down I saw this reaction an I saw you and I was figured why not stick with something you already know you can rely on right 👍!

[@opie8989]

This song was number 22 out of 23 at this concert, number 21 was Play and should be your next Band-Maid song.

[@SemiCharmer]

Ooooh. 🤔🤔🤔 Lets do it!!

[@jamescowing829]

Yep. More badass live & it shows in your face: even tho you've seen the band/song before you're even smilier/glowier than last time :) I feel like it's only the lyrical style (esp. little pop bits sprinkled in) that makes them a rock band. They could do kick ass metal. Speaking of which, I stumbled across an instrumental that they played live "Onset": kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4fVf2CglLqWZrc Sounds like late 1980s metal to me. Thanks for giving us another great reaction. I especially appreciate reactors who enjoy and celebrate great women of metal/badass rockers.

[@marifosquejrvictormartin5833]

Welcome to DOMINATION...A Band-Maid Journey...Nice reaction...Try to react to BABYMETAL as well, you might like it...

[@stealthcabbie1336]

This Is Band-Maid. This is a regular Band-Maid song. This is how they are. However, rarely do you get 2 songs which are alike. With over 80 songs, 90% is of the same quality. Explore deeper. This is the tip of a huge Iceberg of quality.

[@realdocloco]

Badass and fluid ... I wonder if somebody has already described Band-Maid on stage with better words !!! That's it: they're badass, but as they worked so much to become that good, and as they LOVE what they're doing, it is totally fluid on stage, natural, it seems effortless. Well done!

[@stevehall5128]

No matter how many times I see this (dozens) I always enjoy seeing Kobato-san's maid cap going boing-boing-boing in the background past Saiki as she apparently *skips* across the stage. (5:53 in the reaction video)

[@SemiCharmer]

🤣

[@waynebenedict4609]

Band Maid is a band that excels in live performances! Very few mv's are better or even as good as the live shows. Rini,(Reincarnation) is one of the exceptions. All the members are so talented, energetic and just plain awesome! Welcome to the pigeon hole that is Band Maid!

[@doraemonnobita2730]

If you can connect to the internet using a VPN, there are many MVs with English subtitles on the Japanese video site (www.nicovideo.jp) that can be accessed by that connection.There are Domination. As you know, BAND-MAID is a ROCK BAND made up of all women. And most of the songs they play on LIVE are songs composed by KANAMI(Lead Guitarist) and written by MIKU(Vocals/Rhythm Guitar). Except for early live performances. What is sung there is the hearts of women of the same generation as MIKU. Encounters, challenges, love, hopes, and such swaying feelings in everyday life are sung.Even in songs that sing love, the lyrics thoroughly express the feelings of the female side. That is the essence of the hard rock band called BAND-MAID, which is different from many other bands. As you react to some of BAND-MAID's songs, you'll notice not only their excellent playing skills, but also the intense originality of their songs. KANAMI(Lead Guitarist) writes a rough sketch, MIKU(Vocals/Rhythm Guitar) who is given it writes lyrics inspired by the melody, and decides riffs and arrangements based on the lyrics. To the last, faithfully to the world view of lyrics, without having to worry about the industry.Feel free. I think that is the source of BAND-MAID's music appealing to us with a strong originality. And I'm also impressed by KANAMI's incredible talent that makes that possible. For example, You may react to "Wonderland" from now on.This song is probably not in the songs proposed by BAND-MAID fans. The music, after the theme is first presented, the music evolves and changes to snuggle up to the lyrics, and There was Kanami's guitar solo with the emotions contained in the music, and eventually,Music greets an emotional outburst-catastrophe, in which the first theme variation takes place, and The music ends quietly, as if it burns out. If you don't understand the lyrics, it will be difficult to fully understand this music. However, here is the world of real music, where there are no speculations about hit charts. And, They continued to wear the maid outfits they initially chose to market the band, even today, with some success, saying "maid outfits are their combat uniforms". ing. I think it is an expression of their strong will to abandon the expression of sexuality and express only feminine, in other words, to compete only with music. I think it's a pride as a female rock band. That's why hard rock is there. If possible, Please understand the lyrics and enjoy the world of BAND-MAID, where the melody, lyrics, looks, and performance are all closely linked at a high level. A colorful world full of surprises and peace. I'm sorry for my poor English.

That PRS that Kanami is playing was given to her personally by Paul Reed Smith. She is a featured artist.

[@zer0tzer0]

The message is only political in the sense that the World should be dominated by BAND-MAID. And it's a pigeon-hole so it isn't confused with BabyMetal's fox god, and their foxhole, or any other rabbit hole you might dive down like Alice In Wonderland. Also Miku is a pigeon. Her last name, Kobato, means little pigeon in Japanese. And in Japan pigeons don't coo, they karuupo. So you'll often hear her end her sentences in Po. You'll get used to it. You should probably follow up with 'Freedom' from this same concert . . . kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHnTpningqaWesk

♥ Band Maid I'd suggest the following songs: Thrill, Bubble, Moratorium, Take Me Higher & Play

[@scottmcgregor562]

What is not to like about Band Maid?? They have great pop hooks and choruses, they can get as heavy as the heaviest bands out there, and they definitely appeal to musicians because of their outstanding musicianship. Most importantly they look like they are having fun and are grateful and so happy to do what they do. I have never seen a drummer as happy as Akane. Watching them have this much fun performing is infectious.

So glad you have made the journey and found Band-Maid! They are one of the best female bands on the planet. You can pick any of the songs from them, I haven't heard a bad song yet. The live performances are amazing as well. I personally really enjoy Blooming official video and Onset live, so I would recommend those. I would also love to see you react to Babymetal Karate official music video. Band-Maid and Babymetal are the best music coming out of Japan in my humble opinion. Band-Maid is rock and Babymetal is metal fusion, different styles but both are freaking awesome. Ty ty

I agree that their “live” videos are better as there is nothing to distract you from how f…ing great they are! I’ve been listening to rock and metal since the sixties and there has never been another band that has so completely taken over my playlists. “Play” and “Manners/Black Hole” are a couple of my favorites.

[@mr559]

Try doing a double reaction from this same concert. Watch "FREEDOM" and then "Choose Me" back to back without pausing or taking a break, since that's the chronological order of the setlist. You can always split the video into two parts when you upload to KZbin. I think what a lot of BAND-MAID reactors miss out on is they don't get to experience the energy and the amazing transitions from song to song.

Band Maid is Truly phenomenal. My only complaint is that you need to come up with better superlatives. More than just f.....g. That does not do them justice.

@@VladimirChupin in that case I would forgive her because I think I said it myself the first time I saw it. I'm not a prude but when someone drops the F bomb that often and for no apparent reason. It's like talking to someone who is drunk or on drugs.

[@VladimirChupin]

@@stephenchigwidden7504, it depends also on the environment a lot. I remember when I was a student in the university, we spoke mostly in that type of language. Russian is richer in this regard, you know, we have more obscene words, and with all the different prepositions, suffixes, and endings, you can basically speak only those words, and be understood very well. I am not a certified linguist, but I have some practical experience as a professional translator for many years. And I even was trying to write a few essays on this topic, to formulate for myself why people use obscene words. There are many reasons for that, like expressiveness, straightforwardness, emotional colouring, etc. In English it's probably not needed so much, although as a non-native speaker, I can't really judge here. In Russian it makes a critical difference sometimes, you can significantly shorten the time needed to convey your idea. Obscene language is usually more concise and clear.

[@stephenchigwidden7504]

@@VladimirChupin well despite the language being the same in English speaking countries the culture is as different from each other as any other country because you are always overcome by your surroundings. Iff petrol is expensive you drive smaller cars. You probably don't like little cars but when it is time to buy a car you would not even consider for a second buying a big car because it is simply not the way people live where you are. RUSSIAN people suffered for generation after generation in one way or another and so I'm not surprised that their language has evolved to describe various degrees of both happiness and unhappiness to a greater level of detail. PLEASURE would have been simple and sporadic and tribulation would have varied from systematic ethnic cleansing to hunger or simply boredom from lack of choice or opportunity and quite possibly the need for a certain amount of self censorship while you worked out how safe it was to reveal your true feelings to someone. I don't think this girl is expecting a knock on the door from the secret police. SHE should probably get one from the rudeness police. SIBERIA will fix her language problem.
