Can you say ferocious???? These girls brought me back the love of REAL music and it still amazes me that a crazy waitress at a Maid Cafe gets the idea to start a rock band wearing maid outfits, then she just happens to find one of the most talented original songwriter and guitarist on the planet WHO just happens to k.now AKane who is the most talented creative and musical drummers ever to exist (Sorry 68 year old jazz fusion prog rock drummer from way back and this girl is amazing). So Akane just happens to have gone to music school with Misa, insanely talented. Oh and after that they decide to add a more powerful vocalist and just happen to find Saiki. WHAT ARE THE FUCKING ODDS THAT THIS HAPPENS????????

[@nem447]

Keep in mind this was written as the theme song for the anime *_Log Horizon_* 3rd Season! _(hence the chaos, intensity, speed, and no breakdown solo)_

[@docazzdocazz8669]

I see Chase Carneson, I see Band-Maid, I click thumbs up !

[@brunolheritier8829]

So agreed with that.

[@JuanSan66]

This is probably their song where more things happen at the same time. This is a gift for any music lover, there is so much into it that you can spend a long time marveling at finding its various hidden treasures. Many people say it is chaotic and it is not true. Galloping, franctic, tight, intense, whatever you want ... but perfectly planified and written. Probably one of Miss Tono's best writing pieces. The vibrant guitar, drums and bass work is kaleidoscopic, no chaos here, it's almost pure geometry. I am quite impressed by the writing of this song. Tremendous.

[@markmark6378]

Absolutely masterful composing, but also some really great lyrics and perhaps one of the best jobs vocally from both Saiki and Miku. Their voices are other instruments here. The phrasing, the harmonies, the speed and the adjustments to their voices to the music being played and the others vocals at any given time is pretty F-ing awesome.

[@JuanSan66]

@@markmark6378 True. Voices and lyrics (and how phrasing adjust the tempo) are my last discovering of this song. It's almost sung layered with twin vocals!

[@weilima9316]

Kanami writes the 1st draft of the whole song, but once they receive the demo, basically Akane decides on the drums, MISA the bass and Miku and Saiki the vocal melody. That;s why their song credits is always "Band-Maid" instead of "Kanami Tohno". Not taking anything away from Kanami because she IS the musical mastermind... but the reason it's always so good is because they ALL have critical input and the demo is never the final product.

[@JuanSan66]

@@weilima9316 Yes, I know. We tend to praise Kanami but you are right, the final product is a team effort. God save Band Maid.

[@hiawatha.g]

Important. That's the right word. When I tell people this may be the best band since the Beatles, they think I'm kidding. But they are like the Beatles in one key way: They always surprise you. They keep coming up with new ideas and pushing the boundaries. Even the greatest bands of the past 40 years didn't do that to this level. 100+ songs and counting, not a single dud, and no repetition. It's crazy.

[@vaughnnewman8903]

Totally agree with you. I'm not a musician but I am a die-hard fan of Rock/Metal . I grew up in the Golden Age of Rock/Metal- the 80's. These women would hold their own against the legends- they are phenomenal. Rock is slowly dying and it's good to see current bands like Band-Maid carry the torch for Rock/Metal...keeping it going.

[@stabehlphotography]

Not a big secret anymore that Kanami is the key writer of their music pieces as well lyrics. Miku is active on the lyrics but Kanami is the driving force. You hear a song like this, heck any of their songs and then ..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6LLmJZva5h6l5I - How ? how how how ? If there ever was a poster child for the saying "it is always the quiet one" Kanami is it. How does all this magic come from someone this quiet, humble and adorable. It is indeed a wonderful world

[@David-yt6kp]

The band have all said Miku writes all lyrics and initial vocal arrangements to their songs. Kanami writes the music for the songs, but yes, Kanami is a compositional virtuoso. She's brilliant.

[@rmdcade1717]

Yes! I think she's the standout in this, honestly. As much as everyone else is showing their usual level of talent, Miku stepped up to the plate and anchored everyone to her rhythm work.

[@unattributed1641]

It's still surprising to me to be surprised by new Band Maid songs. This one was a surprise to me because I noticed immediately that there is an evolution in the choices being made, most prominently in Akane and Kanami's parts. Akane seems to have moved to a point where instead of playing tight/minor variations on her lines she's making much larger Changes in her choices while still maintaining the core patterns. Kanami's work is work is enlightening: as Miku's rhythm and harmony playing has evolved Kanami is now hinting at different modalities in her playing.

Yeah! Popcorn ready! Exited for Chases explanations for this song. First i was not really happy with it. But it grows... This is a song which must be listen multiple times.

[@zelbinian]

Yeah first time it's just a neutron bomb of Band-Maid energy and you didn't quite know what hit you but... you were pretty sure it was good? Part of it is having 6 different really intense sections in the first minute or so lol But as you start wrapping your head around it... ooo, it's Band-Maid all over. And watching Akane in this video is a pure delight.

[@phaeron]

Oh man, did you save my day with this video. Your reaction at the beginning of the video is pure gold! 😂 I myself reacted nearly the same way to the first few seconds and thought exactly the same. "I wasn't ready!". I paused at almost the same place and made myself a coffee before I started the video from the beginning. And I needed this short break to process what I just heard. I got up with the thought "what chaos", but when I was standing at the coffee machine in the kitchen, I had the melody already in my head and my legs moved by themselves, like yours did at the end of the video. When I realized that, I knew that this was anything but chaos, but musically something special. And what fun I had after the restart of the song! I still wonder how many energy drinks Akane had before the recording of this one, or did Misa mixed something from her little whiskey bottle into her coffee? 😂 She's going absolutely crazy behind those drums. I think this song is pure fire and you said it best "fantastic musicians, incredible songwriters and great executors." 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻

This song absolutely belongs to Akane and Kanami!! Mincho brought in a riff that is VERY similar to the one she wrote for Screaming, and Akane just DOES. NOT. STOP!!! I think the other thing they have done that enhances the song is that they brought MISA's bass up a little more in the mix to give it a more "live" sound. Last band I can think of that did this and absolutely elevated their on-album sound was Lacuna Coil when they released Karmacode when Marco used his live rig and sound setup in the studio.

For me it is typically a music for an opening anime. It really sound like others i used to see. It is typically sonding "japonese", i meant it has the sound i can hear in anime and movie. And i have the feeling it is written for a younger audience, i mean under 30 (speed, distorsion, no solo, etc). BandMaid has a huge amount of fans that are older than 40/50. I guess some will not like it but it's not a problem. Don't be long is for them: an other masterpeirce from BM.

The first listen totally went over my head coz I was too excited. But by the fourth listen, the only thing going through my head was “someone get Chase on this track already” 😅 I’m honestly not a big fan of ‘organised chaos’ as they are often beyond my comprehension to fully appreciate. Fortunately the main riff, the bass part on the pre-chorus and the chorus all sounded melodic enough to me, though separately. In my head, it feels like I’m constantly shifting gears and barely managing to not get left behind by the song’s pace. The frantic energy in this track is enough to make me shed a few pounds of neurons. Anyways thanks for reacting. I can finally see the light!..

I also found a channel two Japanese lads are doing that is fascinating. They add their own English subtitles and take time to explain the words and meanings and have solid music understanding they exhibit in their break downs.

@@Running-withscissors, thanks for posting this link, always great to get a different perspective... and an in depth breakdown of Band-Maid language and meaning, very cool.

[@ianashcroft8156]

There needs to be a new phrase introduced "That's almost as good as a Band-Maid Chorus"

[@mahfoeth]

Yesss 👆👆

[@jmarczeski]

Always see them as a live band that just happens to make records..... missing out on the soft side of them if not listen to Daydreaming

[@nxtmedia247]

still... the best reaction/breakdown of band maid...

[@schelin1447]

PUNK-MAID! :) Excellent song, technical and straight forward at the same time.

[@d.h8538]

This song is a beautiful chaos.

[@barryfox8464]

Chase - some of your best facial expressions yet!!!- yep, this song hits on all cylinders AND nitrous!!

[@berighteous]

ya gotta hold on to something when you listen to Band-Maid. She warned you "Let's go, it's SHOWTIME!"

[@michaelsicotte1543]

Great job Chase I’ve been waiting for your reaction since the video came out your the first one I go to for on any BM songs. Have you ever thought of doing a full album review say for a live stream that might be cool. As for next songs try the dragon cry’s it’s one of only two all English songs they’ve done the other is don’t let me down from their early songs both are worth a review. Stay safe everyone ✌️

Magic fingers Kanamincho is shredding the cr*p out of this one!

[@philproffitt8363]

As per usual...they're the damn dog's doodahs mate!! Multiverse beckons...Band-Maiko 'Secret Maiko Lips'

[@yshrtmk2731]

I love your commentary. I have been watching you since the early days. You were very quiet in the beginning.😄 I was impressed by the way you listened carefully to the music to avoid missing anything. Lately, you've become more aggressive. It's fun to feel the passion for it, too.👌 I think there's a reason why your video views are growing. I think it's because of the clean rooms, the clean-cut clothes, the sincere words, the clear images - they make a good impression on the viewer. Thank you for reacting BANDMAID. From Japan.

Chase: "nananananananana" Me: BATMAN!

[@leonardsimmers9158]

I was waiting for this! I knew when BM released this video. That it wouldn't be long before the fans bombarded Chase to react, and break it down. Wait! Me too! I'm a fan!!! Can't even count how many times I have watched their video. And listened to the track. Knew you'd have fun breaking this down. Yep, loved the reaction and breakdown. Loved it ever since the first listen. And love it even more since. Like you said, as a band they are incredible. Every member is as important as the others. From Akane killing it on drums! Misa's gorgeous bass lines! They sound magical! Kanami's song writing ability, and lead work. Are just phenomenal! Saiki's vocals, and Miku's backup vocals are also exceptional. Not forgetting Miku's guitar work has improved greatly. I daresay that she could play a guitar solo herself these days. Pity, I don't watch much anime. Hay Chase! Do you reckon Julia would like to react to the vocals on Different? Anyway, I loved how happy this new song made you. Not that I expected anything different.

Early there I think we saw a glitch in the Carneson. 😂

[@Chananda]

I can't wait for this!!

[@brunolheritier8829]

Chase, I was not ready either. What an amazing song! 3 minutes 35 seconds of pure intensity, especially for Kanami, Misa and of course Akane. What an insane rhythmic and speed. Virtually no downtime. This is truly an act of bravery. And Kanami, Oh My God, what a job from start to end! Edit: I did not analyzed the lyrics yet, but maybe this track should have been called "Showtime". And the little break at the end to let the word "Showtime" explodes is just perfect. And by the way, this is by far the most interesting analysis I watched regarding Band-Maid. Thanks a lot for that.

[@waynetubr]

I live in St. Petersburg Fla. As I Listen to you describe this video, is a lot like my daughter describing Salvador Dali paintings to me. At first I saw nothing more than a melting clock, and thought it was "cool." But as she described what was happening behind the scenes and I was able to open my mind to "see" it. I was even more appreciative of the art. I truly realized what I was missing.

[@ChaseCarneson]

This is a lovely comment. Thank you so much for this

[@ethangospodareck]

I've heard this about 20 times now with half of them being reactions. This might be my favorite reaction so far.

[@subidorload]

Mmmm this or the new within temptation video that will be premiered in the same hour.... the answer is clear. I will be here.

[@luisnunes2010]

No doubt...
