Band Maid's b-sides ... Damn ... What a quality, my lord!. Ten riffs per song, with their corresponding insane bass counter-melody, different drum patterns for each section with their different drum fills to spice them up even more, crazy guitar solos with double or triple layers, depending on Kanami's desire to play hide and seek. .. and the red and blue oni demons singing BETTER THAN EVER IN THEIR LIFE. F_cking best band in the world... This is a miracle.

great reaction as always, and I agree with you, Band-Maid are absolutely unique. They are a real super band as in the past few existed, this is because they only make their music and that is why they can remember all these complicated passages, because no one, like, producers or financiers, interferes in the creative flow. Misa is also released by Kanami, so she can go around her bass neck as she sees fit. if you then listen to the tone and the sound of Misa's bass, it is a unique and unrepeatable sound, this is the signal of how much she studies and researches on the instrument. Akane can let herself go in those impossible rhythmic combinations of foot and hand (you listen to Corallium well in certain points it is always hitting or kicking off, I don't know how she manages without seizing her brain), but this is certainly easy for her because it is her research and her pleasure. Miku and Saiki continue to create new vocal weaves. Kanami now makes solos and riffs that are on Kanami scales, we no longer know where she goes to get the notes, one day here one day there, she explores every genre and every scale and way. the pop melodic lines, or as you say from movie theme, are beautiful and uncommon, they always have one or two notes that are signed. By now at this point, I think they are by far the best band today and even for a few decades.

Excerpt from a recent interview of Miku and Saiki by Tokion: Interviewer: There are [female] bands that want to be seen simply as a band, and not as a girl band. Kobato: We don’t really care now, since there are more hard rock girl bands making appearances in the media and the world now seems to properly understand what girl bands are, though, when BAND-MAID first started, girl bands were lumped together as “idol groups,” and we wanted to prove to people that “we aren’t idols!” SAIKI: We were like, “It’s okay if people call us a girl band, but just don’t forget that we’re a band!” Kobato: Back then, there were quite a lot of bands that weren’t actually playing the instruments on their own, and we wanted to show that we were different from them; I think that was huge. SAIKI: It’s been years since we started, and we have more songs in our repertoire and our own staple tunes that make people say, “these songs are unique to BAND-MAID,” so I don’t care anymore about how people label us.

To me, what makes Band Maid so special is, the way they use instruments to underpin the melody, (like a harmony), then turn it around and use the vocals to give you another riff beside the instruments. (WTF .... that sounded so much better in my head than what I wrote. I think I'm turning into a maid.)

The thing I really love about Band-Maid, is this wall of sound they create. I know a couple of metal bands that play incredibly dense music, but Band-Maid is the only hard rock band I know of that manages to create the same kind of atmosphere, the same kind of musical landscape as those bands. Other people find their later stuff too busy and hectic, but for me this is peak Band-Maid.

Different single had Don't Be Long, so make it 18. Oh wait, also Youth and Without Holding Back, so 20. And if you count the instrumentals on the BluRay which are so incredible that they are their own entities, there's 23. And I will throw in Smile (Acoustic) because it's so distinctive vs. the original, which would be 24. I would say no one else has ever had this kind of hitting streak. I could probably make a case for Guided By Voices at some point in late 90s, but Band-Maid's music is on a whole other level of ambition and execution compared to GBV. Band-Maid's music is so much more thrilling.

As much as well all love and admire Akane for her kicks and tom work... I think her high hat work is criminally overlooked. Its not just this song. There are soooo many songs where she's just driving the beat forward with her high hat work. I think Choose Me or SML is one of the ones that always stands out to me.... now I have to go back and listen to find out which ones I was thinking of... oh the horror! :) Honestly I think Hibana is the best song on this release. Even though it was written for a specific purpose, same as Sense, it just works better in my mind. I love the main riff from Kanami. Crunchy and Miku and MISA laying down a sweet rhythm melody for Saiki and Kanami to work off of. Corallium is impressive as well.

It almost seems like if you dropped the vocals the instrumentation wouldn’t mesh - wouldn’t sound like a cohesive song. But, ofc, it would because Kanami is a musical genius; as I guess are the other four, too. Because if they weren’t all freaking geniuses they’d never be able to contribute their parts nor write these crazy incredible vocals that somehow combine with these crazy instrumental parts to create such an amazing work of rock music.

I liked the poster. Here I am. I think I like this better than sense. Unlike Via, I like it heavy. Your melting face from IJ cracks me up.

I've had it, this is the last straw, I've decided that I'm going in for some gene editing treatments to see if I can grow at last three more ears and new brain regions to properly listen to Band-Maid.

Saiki either learned about lyric writing from Miku or is teaching her about songwriting. Corallium is a masterpiece which shows a vulnerable side to Saiki's tsun tsun/ tsun dere attitude

BTW: I don't know if you are in Band Maid Prime. Probably the best place to glimpse some signature tricks of the girls and learn some of their music. I think you would love it.

I like that you admitted to already hearing songs when you have. It’s better than trying to bullshit a fake reaction. I’m watching for your commentary as a fellow musician. -Rick from Indy.

*_Band-Maid are a beautiful complex simplicty of an initially seeming simple musically stunning complexity._* Every listening finds nearly always something more to each of our ears, what appears a trope formula is merely a parody of it; ..as they pull multiple influences, styles, genres and compositional creations into a beautiful audible recipe that always has something unexpected, ..that yet in hindsight, feels natural, and begs to question why other bands can seem to wimp-out to their studio-overlords, while putting in less effort than which B-M to do.

Lets take everything complicated from Unseen World, vocal layering from Black Hole, Dragon Cries and Daydreaming, the passion from Puzzle, and throw that into a blender. Now crank things to 11 and add a dash of lyrical spice from Saiki. Then place it as a B-Side track. This trio of songs is a whole meal for the ears. Sense is bold appetizer, Hibana the solid, full, main course, finishing with a masterpiece of a desert in Corallium. Corallium is such a masterpiece of music. This eclipses Sense for me, in all aspects.

Just to get me outta my ignorance, what would you say is Corallium's genre? I've been thinking for a while but can't properly classify it. Maybe just put it on the Band-Maid genre(? 🤘🕊️
@RyanMear2 жыл бұрын
It's BAND-MAID. That is the only classification that fits

Muttley, Jeff Goldblum and Doctor Who in one reaction video. Cool :) There's one tiny noise in Corallium that intrigues me - it's a high pitch almost metallic oscilliating squeak. Only lasts a second or two. Used twice I think. No idea why it's there but it is.

Hibana's riffs and vocals are highly toxic, for a whole day I kept hearing "gunshot, gunshot" in my brain! Imagine them playing live among lasers, smoke, and flames, this song will show no mercy.
