{REACTION} Band-Maid / Ambition (Honkai, 本懐)

[@markmark6378]

I don't know man. Almost all of the old prog bands that I liked, (Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd..etc.), they seemed to me to be all about taking you different directions, both musically and emotionally. The thing is, they would take ten minutes or longer to convey different emotions and musical directions. Band-Maid has taken lately to do the same thing in three minutes. It is remarkable to attempt it, but to make it sound great, start to finish is special. Just count the changes in this one and note the superior transitions, just killer.

aahumm…(clears throat)… Akane?? 🤣 great reaction. You might notice her on the next track though…🥁

[@markmiyasaki6001]

One of my most played song and Miku and Saiki must love it too since they used it for the intro to their weekly radio show they used to have called Band-Maid Nippon.

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Saiki sang "One day you will forget about me". I'll never forget about Sai-chan & BAND-MAID any day....EVER!!!!!🥲

Your comment made me think, Gary. No other person, place or event has been at front of mind more than Band-Maid has since the day I first saw them on YT in 2014. Their music and character has made a serious impact on me. But it's been a positive, healthy impact. So I'm ok with it. I wonder if they truly know of this kind of influence they have on people?

Best song on an album of best songs 🙂

[@glenkelley6799]

We will NEVER forget about them!!!!! How many fills can Akane put into one song? How songs can you cram into one song?

[@Glenner7]

Yes, this is the one time that Miku was wrong.

[@VegetaRabbit]

"You will forget about me someday" No, no I won't. 3:32 So Kanami thought, for the next 10 seconds Saiki will be singing superfast over Akane's drum beat while MISA gets slappy. And it works.

[@davids9445]

Hey that’s how I play all of Kanami’s solo’s too! 🤘🏻

[@zocc116]

a perfect song for a romantic dinner, right? :)

[@stevehall5128]

Can we also just note that that simple little trade-off between the guitars at the end is cool AF?

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Yes, yes we can note that.😁👍

[@alanstamper4345]

The video of that trade off, between Miku and Kanami is exceptional. I watched that and thought it was one of the coolest things ever.

[@lartranslation6929]

the way she creates such forceful and memorable themes ...

[@Bodneyblue]

They don't call themselves ~An impossibly hard rocking maid band~ for nothing...hehehe!🙂

[@falconsooner]

One of my top 3 songs from UW. Great blend of old school rock riffs, great vocals and a little prog

[@npmushead6543]

Including this song, you can watch on BAND-MAID PRIME for each instrumental performance of the 4 members. (pull and head angle) You need to pay a month if you watch the videos, but you can search for thumbnails for free. They are very interesting. I think it's worth paying for.

[@elevown]

I LOVE this song - catchy and amazing drums and bass sections and also complex and progy, lots of change ups.. This song doesn't often get called out to react to but its a banger.

[@tinyhato]

Wow, you nailed that guitar solo without any practice! Are you sure you're a drummer? ;) This bridge is one of my favourite things that they've done. Endlessly exciting. Have a great day!

[@GaryHolloway-810]

IKR. And Buffy even managed to get some of MISA's bass line in that solo too.😮

[@satocalbee8857]

「They are very similar in a bad way.」I like the lyrics of the child that Miku wrote.

[@toshi-k4221]

What a great band‼️‼️‼️👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇯🇵

[@surfingasongwave]

So you've been listening to a new song every day for months. You're not burned out on them yet? Yeah, me neither. In fact, it keeps getting better. Eleven days until Unleash.

[@phaeron]

"You will forget about me someday" ... I just hope the ladies know that by now they have pretty much ensured that this will never happen!!! 🙏🏻 For me and my ears, one of the (maybe THE) most fun tracks of this album. The 'chaos section', with the solo that follows and the half-time feel in the last third where Saiki just shines brighter for me than so many times already before... And even though you could make several songs out of the individual parts, it just fits together so damn well! As you say, their songwriting is indescribably great. 🔥🤘🏻 ___________________ 「 _"完璧なんてありえない" / Perfection? No one gets there._ 」 --- from *BAND-MAID* 'Warning' 🕊

Well that was some awesome ear candy.....The rhythm section was tight!! Sick Riff.....I'll be humming that for quite a few days. Exceptional vocals, I would LOVE to see a video with Miku and Saiki cutting these tracks.....they work so well together on this album. That one vocal section "You Will..Forget..About Me..Someday" was as fun as "Manners" Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh-Uh_Uh....very cool.

[@markhayes9004]

Hey SBR, I hope you are having a great day!

[@alanstamper4345]

They are all exceptional, but Kanami’s compositional skills are just unreal.
