Akane Hirose is my favorite Japanese drummer, and currently my favorite drummer over-all. But if you start looking into the J-Rock stuff you find that every Female drummer out of Japan beats the living daylights out of 90% of male western drummers. They are absolute beasts on the double pedals. They mostly have these tiny 4 or 5 piece kits, and they absolutely play the living hell out of them. Akane in particular plays the entire kit all the time (many are just doing the machine gun dbl base thing with more normal fills in between). I only ran into this band (and J-Rock) a month ago. And before this I had never felt the need to play double pedals. Akane is the best thing to happen to my drumming since hearing Rush in the 80s when I was growing up. Probably best thing to happen to my health as well, SO much work to get into shape. I'm mostly past the sore legs/calves. The kids are watching me flail around and not give up, so they seem less timid about practicing piano and my daughter is even asking for an Electric guitar now. If only the wife was into good music ...

They are Crazy talented. And their songs are hook after hook after hook. The maid imagery is tough for some folks outside Japan too grip but Imo its no different that North American girl bands who wear leather,dress emo,etc.. In Japan Imagery and Cosplay elements are very much a part of their acts. I know 5 words in Japanese yet I seemed understand every bit of each of their songs. Great Music is Great Music no matter what language imo. Nice Reaction.

Never ever give energy to hate! Not just when you receive it from others, but also in feeling it towards others.These kind of dark souls are so hidden behind their wall of hate, they will not understand or feel anything you say to them. Don't feel hate for them, don't even feel pitty ... just ignore. The opposite of hate and/or love is indifference. Not feeling anything for them. Shrug your shoulders, straight your back and walk away. Great reaction! One of my favorite things to do is watching people picking up their jaws from the floor when they are confronted with Band-Maid. Wish you taped the second time you watched this video.

Band Maid have that instant 'love it' appeal to all their songs in my opinion. As a big fan of the band it is difficult to be critical. The only thing that is not so good about them is their rather formulaic music videos. Not all of them are the same but this video reflects several of their official music videos. The music though, is brilliant. If you want to see more of them here is a link from KZbin: kzbin.info?search_query=band+maid Although different from BabyMetal both these Japanese groups are excellent live and there are fan cams of live songs from Band Maid to look into as well. Thank you for making this Band Maid reaction video. Hopefully, you will make some more?

Check out a few of their awesome live performances before they're taken down: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaaQpquZopyUpLM They will blow your mind!!! Band-Maid is about to embark on their third limited world tour and is fast becoming one of the best hard rock bands in the world. Their music composition, thanks to Kanami's guitar (Ka-na-me) and Misa's bass and incredible chops and music background, Akane's powerful drive and novel kick drum patterns, Miku's writing and personality (which I hope she'll tighten up a bit) and Saiki's super strong rock Goddess voice (hope she doesn't blow it out anytime soon) and stage presence all go to make Band-Maid a major world act and culture influence.

You went this far, you might as well jump all the way in. Another Japanese all girl group that you owe it to yourself to check out and react to is Lovebites. They shred harder and will melt your face off. Try the songs Winds of Transylvania, When Destinies Align, or Raise some Hell to name a few. They're as talented as they are beautiful. If you want to hear a lady drummer with nuclear grade power this is the band. The drummer is an adorable little doll but she's full beast mode on the drums. Possibly the best female drummer in the business and better than most men I've ever seen too. Buckle up and prepare to shit razor blades. You wont be disappointed.
