Band-Maid is like a drug. You get a high while you are listening. Then the song ends too soon & you are left wanting more. You just fell into the pigeon-hole & there is no escape.

[@donnyarmstrong9559]

That is a perfect way to put it!

[@mardyvalladolid873]

From guitar pick to slap bass switching, MISA never ceases to amaze. She is really a Bass Goddess.

[@GunChronicles]

Holy crap! No vocals needed when you have musicians of this caliber playing. That was nothing short of awesome. Thanks for the reaction.

[@busser649]

BAND-MAID has brought me back to my youth as a child of the 70's & 80's & they're the best I've heard since then. Flew from Wisconsin to NYC last September to see them twice. Tickets for their show @ Budokan next February go on sale tomorrow & I'll be doing whatever it takes to score a ticket & mark off one of my deam vacations.

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

Busser 64 how much is a ticket to their show?

[@busser649]

@@TheWolfHunterZ I had VIP meet & greet tickets for both shows & I believe they were $87 each. The show @ Budokan is 10,000 yen which should be right around $100 US. They were booked for Inkcarceration Fest this year in Ohio, but of course that was canceled.

[@vdctube8966]

Where to buy this ticket please.

[@busser649]

@@vdctube8966 the best way is to join their fan club because they normally get first chance, otherwise, in Japan it's mostly done through a lottery I believe. For the first show in NYC I think the tickets were sold through Eventbrite, but the second show was added for fanclub members only & was purchased through their site if I remember correctly.

[@vdctube8966]

[Sept. 14, 2017] interview: Red Rose Miku - "At the band forming nobody in our band had done "Hard Rock" so we had started without knowing anything; we have grown greatly musically as a band". Japanese artists will thank their fan with the ending "we will work and try harder":)

[@saldiven2009]

I was one of a lucky 800 people. In April of 2018, I had a visit to Japan. After I booked the flights, Band-Maid announced three shows in Nagoya, Osaka, and Tokyo. I got tickets to the show in Nagoya at Nagoya Diamond Hall, an cozy 800 person venue. Halfway through the show, they busted out this number. They had never played this song before and had not released it anywhere. It was totally new. It was absolutely sick. This recording is from the Tokyo show about a 9 days after the Nagoya show.

[@mr.bluebird6544]

Discovered this band a few weeks ago myself. Can honestly say this is some of the best music I've heard in a loooong time. If not for these reaction channels I would have never found this awesome band. World class musicianship and they exude pure joy when they perform. The show from February of this year is even better!

[@Space_Ranger]

Welcome! You'll be a Band-Maidiac soon! lol. Every new song will become your new favorite!

[@jtdg5849]

Band-Maid is the undisputed best band I've found in years and years! That said, Don't be afraid to click on the YT suggestions that pop up. You will be amazed at the music scene in Japan. I MUCH prefer Saiki's vocals from these bands, but bands like LoveBites, Aldious and Mary's Blood will still blow you away! And that is a TINY sampling of what is out there.

Band-Maid are MAGICAL! i'm always in a great mood after listening to them. I love them all

[@carldevries9108]

Your first reaction to "thrill" was Band Maid in their infancy. the song was written for them, not by them. Several years later the powers that be let them compose and write for themselves and they have been evolving ever since. They work hard to constantly improve themselves. No copy and paste choruses and no repetitive music in their songs. This performance is like 6 years of improvment over "Thrill". Love your bands' reactions. Keep it up.

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

carl de vries thanks. Yea I felt like it was a new band. Could not believe they could get better

[@kirbysmith882]

Miku was still learning guitar in the early years.

[@David-yt6kp]

Actually, it wasn't several years. They started writing their own songs after a couple of years in. I certainly agree they have evolved.

[@tvesrb]

@@David-yt6kp yup. From about 2015 onward, they've written 99% of their music.

[@crapstirrer]

The powers that be? They found themselves a new label.

[@realdocloco]

You're so right, they're the opening door to another world. Had the same reaction. But in that other world, they're still my favorites.

[@bhg70]

BAND-MAID make me happy. They are a joy to watch and listen to. They were the first Japanese band I came across, back in 2015 (with "Thrill"), and I gradually discovered more amazing bands in the Japanese scene. Unlike a lot of "jumping off points," though, I haven't "outgrown" them. They have continued to push themselves to be better and better (when they were already fantastic), and -- as a result -- they are definitely one of my all-time favorites. The visual gimmick is not a crutch. They are the real deal. One of the best (if not *the* best) straight-up hard rock bands on the planet right now.

[@scottpollack1007]

bhg70 THE BEST ROCK BAND ON THE PLANET! NO ONE IS BETTER THAN BANDMAID....................PERIOD!

[@waynebenedict4609]

They do this song to give the singer a break! Just them showing their talent! These ladies are amazing!

[@outwest1014]

How Band-Maid works; Kanami (lead guitar) composes the music, sending it (internet) to MISA (bass) and Akane (drums) for beat and rhythm. Miku (rhythm guitar, vocals, Spokes-Pigeon) writes the lyrics with Saiki now providing input. The song is finished in the studio, with Saiki in command of declaring the song done. Miku founded the band starting with Kanami from the internet, where she was posting her songs. Kanami contacted Akane who in turn contacted MISA. From there 2 things happened, They needed a fuller sound so Miku stepped up to learn rhythm guitar (from Kanami) and Saiki (thru an audition) was brought in for vocals as Miku's voice was not strong to front a Hard Rock (not metal) band. They write, arrange, and produce their songs AND Miku and Saiki decide the order for the songs on the albums. They had 5 sold-out concerts in the US in 2019 and have a strong loyal fandom both here and in Europe that's growing. We are just waiting for them to come back to the US. Good reaction, now checkout Lovebites. Everyone BE SAFE sheltering in California.

[@jtdg5849]

Oh yeah, they evolved. This is an instrumental. I've seen them twice live. Each time is better than the last.

[@rickfromtexas4659]

This is done during the intermission which the band jokingly calls Saiki's pee break. They perform this and then Miku does her Magic Spell Show. She is quite the comedienne apparently. I have only seen her magic spell show in Japanese on KZbin but the audience gets a kick out of it. It is all done so that Saiki can rest her lovely voice. Great reaction. I am enjoying y'all's reaction videos.

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

Rick From Texas thank you

[@drogonr9318]

I had the same reaction as you did when I first heard this track. So I just jumped down that rabbit hole, and fell in love (bought up all their music, which was my first purchase in years). I also started listening to the other J-Rock/metal bands recommended in the Band Maid comments, hoping to stumble across something similar. But none of these other bands could quite reproduce for me what Band Maid does: I found myself admiring the technical skills of these other bands, but for some reason their sound could not make my heart sing the way Band Maid seems to. Band Maid makes some beautiful music.

[@michaelpalmer3717]

Onset was written to play onstage and give the singer a break! They generally play 22/23 songs per 2 hour concert and each at full speed. They must have incredible stamina!

[@curtisrrobles7885]

MISA!!!! MISA!!!! MISA!!!!! Bass Assassin. Not new for many of us but now this video is Official. I've seen them Live twice in LA once in 2018 and Onset was just amazing to hear. They are the best Hard Rock band today. Their play looks effortless. Onset is one of a few instrumentals the play. Gives their lead singer Saiki a break in their 2 hour concerts. Check out their Tribute to Slipknot. They played Duality back in March this year

[@Space_Ranger]

Since you saw Thrill (2nd album) to Onset (not on any any album, only live, about 2 albums later) is a huge amount of great stuff. They level up every album! Especially since the corporate types let them write their own stuff.

[@kaazan1]

what you want we can tell? this is the best rock band in the world today, what we can tell ......

[@alexn4843]

Band Maid is awesome! Only found out about them a year ago by watching another reactor doing a reaction to them. I grew up listening to AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Iron Maiden, etc. Now Band Maid is by far my favorite band. Was even lucky enough to catch them last year in concert at Mercury Lounge in NYC. This video was from their Zepp concert. The band or management has been taking down those videos lately. It's a shame because those concert videos were great.

[@IamStrangreen]

This "new release" is actually a show of 2018, it's still awesome...and they are definitely taking the next level with every single year since their debut in 2013.

[@snakewhisperer1]

Another great reaction! This song is one of those where the singer, Saiki, takes a break to rest her pipes while the musicians get to show off. The earlier live video you did was a guest appearance at the Summer Sonic festival. This one is their full live show at Zepp Tokyo produced for commercial release. So the production value on this one is much higher.

BAND-MAID is just an incredible connection of 5 women with one purpose to deliver the best music possible, and they do that with every song. If you are able to separate out each individual instrument you will appreciate how great musicians they are on this song. just amazing when you break it down to each members part in this song. Kanami is a master at writing the music for the band.

[@paullow3377]

Great reaction. You got onto the BAND-MAID train a little slow but better late than never! They have evolved a lot since Thrill. Their break came from their song "Alone" where they finally got the ok to write and produce their own song. The rest, as they say, is history. You may want to check out that song also from their channel, it has, imho, one of the best guitar solo. ;)

[@tonymarshall8833]

its about time ime 66 years old and love it ime from the U.K

[@squaresphere]

Just more fuel for your journey down the rabbit hole. "Alone" was the first song they were able to write themselves. The Alone music video is how I saw it first and the energy they have in it is LEAGUES different than Thrill. I still get the chills just seeing how much more feel they are in it even though it was a produce MV.

I've already stated many a time that Band Maid is the best girl rock band ever, and the best rock band out right now. Also that they have the best female bassist (MISA), guitarist (Kanami) & drummer (Akane) ever. The more I listen to them I may have to elevate Kanami to the 2nd best guitarist of all time, only behind MISA's (and mine) favorite: the immortal Jimi Hendrix. She's just so immensely talented. Anyhow, I'm done gushing (for the moment)...

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

Yep, top band, it's amazing that if you look at very well known and popular rock/metal websites you'll see little or no mention of band maid, i mean wtf, i contacted one before advocating the band and they basically said meh, they sing in japanese, this particular site promotes baby metal ffs, life is so unfair, so kudos to every you tuber that reacts and promotes this band for literally nothing. 🤘🤘

Ross you are so on point, I accidentally found these girls from a reaction video about 3-4 weeks ago. If I like someone’s channel, I’ll keep checking out their reactions to music that I grew up on, but I watched this particular video that night because I like the couple that featured it. I was totally blown away with the first song that I heard, so I started watching a ton more of their videos, but of course I now have some favorites. I feel like a teenager again watching and listening to these girls. Top notch performers and such humble girls to boot. I hope more and more people get introduced to this band, as for me I tell anyone who listens to anything Rock about these girls and so far I’ve turned some people on the music. Cheers.

When you mentioned "they really got a lot better" in the beginning, I was just like "oh, you ain't seen nothing yet" :-) You're right, and that's why I like reaction channels.

It's a super prestigious venue in Japan. Messe and Zep are like gym badges in pokemon for bands. You pretty much have to be invited to play there.

[@thedocofrock1890]

yeah i see through your databank that you went from 'thrill' their first video 7 years ago to the newer stuff and missed quite a bit in between. they started writing almost all of their music in 2016 with the song 'alone' and just got better. if you really want to see their progression i would go with mv's in this order after thrill.real existence,the non fiction days, alone,yolo,choose me, don't let me down. all bangers.can't lose with the maids. this is one of 2 instrumentals they do - the other is 'don't be long'. a well deserved rest for saiki the vocalist cuz they usually do 26 song sets - way more than other bands.

I've been exploring far east groups for about 4 years now, and from the first listen (Choose Me official video) I was hooked. I've found a number of bands I really like, but Band-Maid has been my #1 band the whole way... And they have only gotten better and better. This tune, as the French might say, is a tour de force. Overwhelming, powerful metal-edged hard rock done masterfully and yet with such joy. Evidence for the case that Band-Maid is the best rock band on the planet! I hadn't bought much music for some time, but so far I have their last three albums and working on the rest.

One starts, gives it to another and so on... These girls are rocking! :)

you have to go and see these girls live, they are incredible you will experience the same forgotten emotions that you felt with the super bands of the 70s and 80s, Akane at the beginning seems invasive but then with its rhythms, it takes you away from the head, she is the hammer of God, the two guitars intertwine in beautiful, very creative ways and rhythms, the mix set on the bass makes you vibrate with Miza throughout the concert, Saiki makes you straighten your hair, and you will love her at the end of the concert, Kanami transforms his guitar into an emotion generator

Glad you love the production value of this song, because there's a bunch of other songs they have from this concert with the exact same sound quality. You're in for many treats. The only bummer is that videos from this concert have been getting taken down from KZbin recently. They're trying to sell more DvD's of this concert, so they don't want videos from this concert on KZbin. That's why they barely uploaded this song to there channel even though it's from 2018.

I stumbled onto a reaction video where someone mentioned in the comments to check out a Japanese band called Band-Maid. That they were very skilled young musicians. I went to KZbin and watched Thrill over and over for about 2 weeks and they just impressed the hell out me. I mentioned them to my friends and I love to see their first reaction to them. It's always priceless to watch the stunned look on their faces. I say always start with Thrill and work your way forward in their timeline up to today.

[@ricksgamemisc10]

Something that sometimes gets lost to newer viewers is how effortlessly Misa switches from pick to slap and back without missing a beat. Band-Maid imo is the best straight-up rock band out there today. They are so FUN to watch. Check out some of their live performances and just notice how they interact with each other. Whether it's cheering each other on during someone's solo, or grouping around Akane to make faces at her as she TEARS UP another drum part, or just generally backing away to let someone else shine - they are great to watch. I sincerely *enjoy* watching them perform almost as much as I do listening to them.

They are insane live! Amazing musicians to say the least!

[@joliquidflow2296]

This is not a new video. It’s been around forever. It has been reacted by many reactors before. What happened is it was on hold because of the recent music released by the band some months back. Now that the music is out they gave permission to see this song and video again. This is the old version of the song while playing it live. There’s also a regular studio video that came out like a year after. . Check it out

[@darkchiron]

When forming this band, Miku (the rhythm guitarist) didn't even know how to play the guitar. She had to learn from Kanami (the lead guitarist) as they went. They've all come a long, long way from the MV for 'Thrill'. Akane (the drummer) always has a smile on her face while playing, she is a beast of a drummer. She doesn't wear the tiny hat any more, though. It hurt her head to keep it attached.

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

darkchiron wow

[@ravenhull]

Yeah, Miku was orinally the lead singer, but while she is good, she doesn’t have the power their style needs, so they found Saiki. Akane and Kanami decided Miku needed to be able to have a bigger roll on stage besides backing vocals (and lyric writing), so Kanami started to teach her to be rhythm guitar too.

[@remmy2000]

Actually she knows few chords, but when she start learning from kanami she found it very hard that she almost quit

So, they a pretty big and growing fanbase here in the States. They played 5 smaller venue shows around October (if I recall correctly) 2 NY 1 Dallas and 2 in Southern California and they sold out pretty quickly or came close to sell out. They were invited to Play Knotfest in Iowa and were supposed to play right before Slipknot. In March if memory serves but Covid happened. There's excellent footage from those 5 shows with decent sound etc. The American crowds really showed up for them too!!!! 😉🤘🤘

Ian Crouch I love MiSa!!

They have some instrumantal tunes for Saiki's break. So you can enjoy them only in live. BTW you didn't react to Domicantion live version with the green lady. It is regrettable.

This clip has almost always been here up for views but it has been taking down lately. But yesterday it was officially released.

[@TheWolfHunterZ]

Kent-Ove Prestberg that’s awesome

[@damienmaynard8892]

Yep. Told ya!

[@dansweeney17]

Absolutely top-notch, every one of them. Best band in the world right now.

Notice how the Goddess MISA throws that pick between her fingers when switching from picking to slapping....effortlessly like a magician. MISA MISA MISA the ASSASSIN

[@nijian32]

The drummer, Akane, always smiling. Should see her in their latest release video. She gets a long solo, and looks like the happiest person in the world in that moment.

[@getup960]

They have few more instrumental songs and imo they’re equal or even better than Onset. Especially “Don’t be long” and” Without holding back”. Also Great reaction btw.

[@Muzicman-ut3jr]

Band-Maid started a bit jpop back in 2013, Thrill was their breakout MV song, breaking new gate meaning moving in another direction! Onset is their best instrumental! They are amazing

[@marksmodellingmadness]

Also, shout out for the drummer's tiny hat ;) This is currently my favourite rock instrumental and yes, it makes me happy too. The guitar sound and the overall stye of this tune reminds me a lot of Ozric Tentacles ("fast dots" from the Erpsongs album).

[@richardgamache1]

It's not that they got better it's that they got freedom of artistic license rather than corporate commercialism ..

[@Bancheis]

Oh no, you did it now. You guys went down the Japanese female metal rabbit hole. Well, I guess while you are down here with me, let me introduce you to another one. Look up Aldious (アルディアス) / Go away (Live 2018). Guarantee you and Suzy will love this one if you loved BAND-MAID. And after that, check out Mary's Blood / Marionette　MV(Full). You are welcome.

[@Bancheis]

Oh also, if you want to delve deeper, there is always this all girl band with a girl who growls. Ｔａｋｅ　Ｍｙ　Ｃｈａｎｃｅ/DOLL＄BOXX

[@Blu9_Nin9]

I was supposed to see them live at the Inkarceration festival next month, but it was cancelled because of this damn pandemic. They're the first Japanese band to ever be invited to perform. I'm crushed I don't get to see them.

Rock&Roll Historic Moment caught on Video is what this IS.

[@jasonnord785]

Best band on the planet right now!

[@paulread5218]

Welcome to the Maidiacs. They have toured in US a couple of times and sold out shows, also done Europe too. They are the best live hard rock band on the planet at the moment for my money, been together 7 years now i think. jimmy Page is a big fan and has had a pic taken with Akane the drummer when he saw them in Tokyo.

[@armynurseboy]

this isn't a "new" release. It was released well over a year ago.....but not officially by the label. This is essentially the "official" release by the label (after being pulled recently), even though it's been on KZbin for a while now.

[@killerpeaches7]

discovered these ladies late 2019, by accident. Knew the name, but the Baby Metal/Idol Band effect, gimmicky sounding name/image plus song titles like "YOLO" (a phrase I want to [punch people for using usually), instantly prejudiced me against even giving them a shot. Then I was listening to Ningen Isu while doing house chores, and Band Maid's "Play" (live) popped up, and that bass line instantly grabbed my attention. A couple weeks later I was buying all their albums. They are one of the freshest, most talented bands in a very long time, and rank up there with Nightwish and Sabaton for keeping heavy music relevant today.

[@user-jr8ge6xm5y]

Misa's bass guitar " black smoker " so cool! Like a firearms .

[@gorfenol]

You might also like Lovebites. They're another all female band.

[@Toobeegort]

What am I listening to? Well Sir you are listening to the best hard rock band of our generation.

[@danielmplaylist2231]

Another band from Japan it's LOVEBITES / when destinies aligns ( 4k music video ) . Mind blowing . Fasten your seatbelts . 🤟😎🤟

[@SAFETYFIRST490]

THEY ARE ON THERE OWN LEVEL!!! THEY ARE THE FEMALE BEATLES OF TODAY!!

[@billpentz7482]

Kaname does things with a guitar that I haven't seen or heard very often if actually ever, there is a video of only her solos, all the band has solo videos mixes that are awesome but hers are my favorite.

[@buffdiggy]

I'd like to see them live and also Wakkagi band. Ningen Isu too

_'Onset'_ unofficially known as Saiki's pee break!
