Oh man... always a good morning when I see JBF and Band-Maid in my feed. This song is immediately in my top 5 Band-Maid songs. I love it how they can explore new sounds, and continue to develop, particularly vocally in this song. It doesn't sound like anything they've done before, but is still recognizably Band-Maid. Your reaction is always great. Even though I don't play a guitar, I still feel like I learn so much from you. Your students are definitely lucky to have you.

That is very accurate, Jack. "Slightly manic" applies not only to their latest songs but also to a good measure of their fans

Very kind words, many thanks Juan!

[@VegetaRabbit]

Nice demonstration of the high-pass filter. I would have never guessed that the guitar work was based in the blues. Miku and MISA also use a lot of slides, maybe it is one of BAND-MAID’s signature moves. Excellent reaction!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Cheers, popped in to my head when editing, that I could probably show what was going on. It's all the blues! Any type of rock can be pretty much traced back there. Glad you enjoyed, thanks bud

[@Ratchy]

Nice analysis as always😀 I am always impressed how Kanami utilizes slide noises as a part of their arrangement (just before the guitar solo in this song) I think she is only using E minor pentatonic + b5th in this solo, but the phrasing and the effect added makes it so unique. Rhythm section arrangement behind is also (always) superb.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Cheers dude, yeah I'd agree sounds like that to me as well!

[@Parker--]

Plastic Love shout out. Nice! Only in the past year have I learned anything about Japanese music. City Pop just reinforces that the 80's was the best and Band-Maid is the best new band I've heard in the 2010's/2020's.

[@mbolden1]

One thing about the slides. You can see some other Japanese musicians use slides quite a bit. I have wondered how much this might relate to tradition sounds, such as you would see from shamisen players. An instrument like that uses many slides and is somewhat synonymous with traditional Japanese music.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Really good point Michael, hadn't though of that, but I'd wager you're on to something there!

[@falconsooner]

Hey Jack...I was the one that sent you the Patreon DM about this song. Thanks for giving it a go! A few thoughts: - BM's B Sides are almost always just as good (if not better) than the A Sides. They never "mail it in" when recording/producing a track. The other B Side "Hibana" is an excellent straightforward (for BM) rocker that was written for a Rainbow 6 tourney. - You are spot on about Kanami loving her slides. It is abit of a trademark and she gets quite an array of sounds from slides. In fact I didn't realize that bumblebee sound was done with slides until your demo. - What was the genre that you mentioned of the intro vocal style? I couldn't pick up the 1st word...it was "something bop". Thanks and hope your cold gets better.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

No problem dude, cheers for pointing me towards this one! I really should check out Hibana as well. I think it's actually City Pop; which I've always misheard as City Bop. That Plastic Love song I popped up in the text in a pretty good overview, from what I know about that style it's sort of reto-ish hip, but also sort of wallpaper-ey music

[@freewheeler2go]

Misa likes her slides too! I think they add nice texture to the songs!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

@@freewheeler2go Spot on!

[@2abug]

Great video as usual. I really love "Corallium", the mix go genre while still sounding very BAND-MAID. It's funny you have mentioned Mariya Takeuchi "Plastic Love". Last November, they finally made an official music video for the song. 35 years later haha

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Oh wow, they did a video??? Gonna have to give that a watch, cheers for that

[@nomennescio4604]

I always think the opening also sounds a lot like something referencing Namie Amuro?

[@yellowclip7862]

Excellent reaction, as usual! I really love the work you're doing, Jack! As per this song being a B-side, Kanami said on an interview that she let the singers (Saiki and Kobato) choose which would be the B-side to Sense and then got worried that they had picked the best song possible. 😄 And I agree, Corallium right away became my favourite song! Something about the vocal work on this is so satisfying. Plus the guitar solo intertwined with a beautiful bass line as the drums slow down to quarter speed. This band cannot stop getting better and better, it seems. The lyrics to this are the first written entirely by Saiki, by the way. 😉

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Many cool styles in just one song!

[@YourMusicStore]

Great video, Jack! I love how that first Akane fill hit you! 😂 The vocal work on this song is absolutely fantastic!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Thanks so much!! Yeah, can't beat a good round the kit fill!

[@craigfenson]

5:47 yes, we had the same impression. the other b-side track, 'hibana', has its own strong merits, too. personally, i equate this ep to unseen world. edit: what's more surprising about their sonic juggernaut tendencies, the can spin 180 degrees to give a refreshing take on their other materials. check their channel and you'll see.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Yeah, totally just a really high quality of writing going on!

[@ranger_a6953]

In this case, their singles have a very specific, outside of the band, purpose. Sense is anime show theme (Platinum End), and one of the others on the disc, Hibana, is the theme for a video gaming competition (Rainbow Six Siege). The other song on the disc, Corallium is the first song that Saiki wrote the lyrics to.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

That's really cool, thanks for the info!

Plastic Love is the city pop song you’re looking for.

Aye, think I popped that in the video, might have forgotten though! Apparently they just released a video for it a week ago or so?

[@TehPhysics]

5:45 "I'm surprised this is a b-side, ya know." Yup. Say that every time I hear a BAND-MAID b-side. Starting to think they don't actually know what "b-side" means. Maybe they got the letters A and B mixed up. 😉

[@jan-ovepedersen5764]

Every B-side song by Band-Maid could have been on the A-side. Band-Maid in a nutshell, even the B-sides are top quality songs :-)

[@billmcleangunsmith]

Band-Maid's b-sides are better than anybody else's a-side singles.

[@Eyes_29]

When you said that Kanami might be making slides as her signature, i think you might be on to something.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

They've been popping up a lot in her playing, in ways I've not heard much before, maybe someone like Vai or Herman Li, using them as almost an effect type thing is the closest?

[@Eyes_29]

@@JbfMusicGuitar I've not heard much of Vai, but Herman li, yeah he does some great fingering work there. Now that i think of it, MISA also does a lot of slides actually but its hard to notice unless i see it happen in video. And so smooth and really wide slides too like going from the bottom of the neck to the top and then back down for a bit. They might be taking inspirations from each other's playing style

[@Metal_Auditor]

Band-Maid often have really cool B-sides. "Choose Me" is a B-side and happens to be one of their most popular songs.

[@weilima9316]

Choose Me / Daydreaming was a double A-side single. B-Side was “Play”, which is one of their favorite songs to perform.

[@Metal_Auditor]

@@weilima9316 I guess since “Daydreaming” is on the album and “Choose Me” is not, I assumed “Choose Me” was considered a B-side.

[@miqoto]

It's really hard for them when they put out singles, they're all full of a-sides lol. This one was a triple a-side single On my 1st listen, I totally agree with you with the hip-hopish influence on the tune

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

I mean the age of the album and single are sort of gone (in terms of how the industry works now), so a steady stream of high quality tunes is probably the smartest thing, roll on triple A sides!

Cheers Wayne! Yeah, ain't nothing wrong with double (or triple) A sides!

Thanks Jack!

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

More than welcome dude!

[@sacluvsBM]

Thanks for making your "lessons" accessible to those of us who can strum three chord change songs but lack any real formal musical instruction. To answer your rhetorical question the genre is Band-Maid. I think giving Band-Maid music, specifically Kobato-Tono songs, are close to emerging as an unique form of rock notwithstanding the fact that they have borrowed heavily from the past and yet still manage to make it their own. Since the release of Alone their music is their music. Beyond producer Mincho there is no record company producer trying to influence their sound. Kanami is that person. What sets Corallium apart from other Band-Maid authored tunes is this is Saiki's first individual songwriting credit. This is Atsumi-Tono as opposed to Kobato-Tono. That's a first. Someone else pointed out here the difficulty that exists for writing a dedicated tune for a TV producer, for example, who already has a vision about what he or she expects. That precondition doesn't exist when you are simply writing for you and your band. Sense was commissioned for an anime. Hibana was commissioned for a sporting concern as their anthem and fight song. Coral is used as a gem stone. Usually red coral and this song is an understated gem itself. Thanks for what you do. Sacramento loves Band-Maid.

[@JbfMusicGuitar]

Great to hear that Robert, I do try to walk a line between making the musics stuff accessible enough fro most folk, but also hopefully dipping in to more complex music and production elements. That's really cool to know and especially the sort of 'purpose' of the song is something I hadn't really taken in to account, really inserting!
