Was lucky enough to be at their joint concert in Tokyo where they live debuted this song. Me & GF flew 6,000 miles from oHio to Japan! We spent 10 days in Japan. We stayed 5 days in Kyoto & Tokyo each with day trips to Osaka & Himeji. Was an amazing concert & trip! Was an experience we both will cherish forever! Really hoping that they release an official live video of this from that concert too! Both bands are big fans of each other. BTW - there's a behind the scenes video of this collab on The Warning's channel

The collaboration between BAND-MAID and The Warning on "Show Them" began back in 2022 when the two bands met for the first time at the Aftershock Festival in Sacramento, California. The Warning was already familiar with BAND-MAID’s music, and the encounter sparked an immediate connection. In December 2023, Kanami, BAND-MAID’s guitarist, sent The Warning a rough demo for "Show Them," with the idea of creating a song that would bring out new aspects of both bands' sounds. Miku worked on the lyrics in collaboration with The Warning, blending ideas from both groups to shape the song’s message and feel. The creative process involved back-and-forth exchanges via Zoom and meetings to refine the track, which was already a unique experience for both bands. Things moved to another level when The Warning visited Japan in June 2024, where they worked together in person. This presented some challenges, including language and cultural differences, but also brought a new depth to the collaboration. Both bands worked to balance the original demo's structure with fresh ideas, incorporating elements that stayed true to their sounds while also pushing them into new creative spaces. The song was performed live in Tokyo with all eight members of BAND-MAID and The Warning on stage, an unforgettable moment that showcased the unity between the two bands. If you're interested in a deeper look into the collaboration, The Warning shared a behind-the-scenes vlog titled "Our First Time in Japan with Band-Maid," which captures the entire experience-from their initial meetings to rehearsing in Japan and the live performance. It’s a great way to see how the song came together and the connection between both bands.

Great to see your enjoyment during this. Excellent !

This song debuted when they played it together in Japan once and there was a phone recording of it making the rounds online. An instant banger that's even better live. I hope they get to tour together sometime.

[@ScottMcVeigh]

I've been planning on checking this band for a while now. Gotta say her high. pitch is not good on my ears.

[@saikisfang9339]

Don't worry, the high pitch is not normal.

[@maniakyt4015]

If you are referring to the vocalist of "The Warning" don't worry, She usually sings in deeper tones, this was an exception...
