SHOW US! | Band-Maid with The Warning (Show Them)

[@roqy]

You can tell that these women resonate with each other. This is way more intense than just two bands playing a song together.

[@biglew1161]

This totally sounded like they have been doing this with each other right from the start. They fit so well together in this. You can hear that they had fun doing this.

[@stephenriggs8177]

Kanami wrote the first cut, and she said her intention was to push both vocalists a bit higher than their normal range. The Warning had a lot of input, though, and songwriting credits are shared between Miku and The Warning. Ale said she's fascinated by how MISA palms a pick--not sure if she'll start trying it. What's funny is that, to me, it sounds more like a Warning song, but Dani says it's quite different than their usual fare. I think this is the best all-English track that Band-Maid's ever done, so there's hope to expand their reach. Saiki said she learned a lot of phonations from Dani, who's essentially a native speaker.

[@jaguaron007]

It”s TW song and wrote a few for BM

[@rodrigoinostroza2359]

​​@@jaguaron007 The song was initially written by Kanami, then she sent it to TW, they made their input, sent it back to BAND-MAID, they made another input and the song was created. They explained that in a Billboard interview recently.

[@flugelhornoldman1362]

Thanks again from Japan 有難う。 I witnessed the live debut of this song 😍 that was played as the encore & finale of the special concert by Band-Maid & The Warning on June 12 in Roppongi, Tokyo . My seat was located on the 2nd floor but in the center meaning in front of the two drummers. I was in bliss! It looked to me that Paulina and Akane literally and happily competed to see which drummer can kick harder enough to break their bass drum in the joint performance. 🤣

[@G-man_810]

Kanami definitely pushed Saiki’s and Dany’s vocals in this song! She is always push others to do their best because she will do hers! Thanks for the reaction…from the PRS interview there is more to come! 🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!

[@reactionsaccount3955]

They played this live with both bands with full instruments including both drums in Tokyo in June. Also The Warning just performed on the secondary stage at Wacken and the main stage at Pol'and'Rock(used to be know as WoodStock), 2 of the largest rock/metal festivals in the world and killed it. 🤘🏻

[@Moyejas]

The Louder stage is considered one of the main stages in Wacken.

[@reactionsaccount3955]

@@Moyejas Yes, but Faster and Harder are bigger, so it is not one of the 2 primary stages.

[@hoges412]

The entire set by The Warning at Poland Rock was on You Tube for about 24 hours until The Forces of Darkness took it down and blocked it world wide. Only Disciple remains as an official release.😕 It's an amazing concert and fantastic production for a live recording with no "post".

[@Moyejas]

@@reactionsaccount3955 Yes they are bigger but in their site is cited as "the third main stage" so even if it is smaller is considered a main stage.

[@RcMcNutt]

I think you're the first reactor I've heard say exactly what I was thinking. I LOVE it...ALL, however, the first thing I said was the vocals sounded a touch high in the mix! Im getting used to it now though. I guess the ears adapt after the 30th listen 😅

[@RetiredInThailand]

I think they adjusted it a bit after the premiere ... or it could be that you are right, and you get used to it after a few (hundred) listens The major complaint on this song seems to be "the vocals were so off-putting I only listened to it a few hundred time in a row!!"

[@TehPhysics]

Just BAND-MAID doing Warning things. 😉 I agree with everything you said here. I'll just add this needs to be a minute longer with more "versus battles". Please, please, please, let there be a "director's cut". 🤞

[@bruceveary1758]

In an industry where so few bands really enjoy and support each other meaningfully, the relationship (and work product) evident between these two exceptional groups is truly uplifting. (Being mature, confident adults helps this process).

[@realdocloco]

The more I think about it ... yes there's been tons of collaborations before between all kind of artists and bands - but two WHOLE BANDS together? I can't really remember, usually it's the singer of band A with band B, or band A with guitarplayer from band B - you see the picture. Even on special occasions like "The Last Waltz" or "Concert for Bangla Desh" and so on, there were different members of different bands on stage but two whole different bands? I'm still searching.

[@JuanSan66]

Since they announced the collaboration I wanted to see the 8 ladies on stage because I thought it was unprecedented, but looking for something I found the collaboration between U2 and Green Day, The Saints are coming, with both full bands on stage. Anyway, BM with TW is the most natural and honest collaboration I have ever seen.

[@johalareewi]

McBusted = McFly and Busted

[@MaartenT]

I am going to put one that I can think of that is going to be pretty obscure and without question not to the taste of most people reading this, but Finish psychedelic black metal band "Oranssi Pazuzu" and Finish psychedelic drone doom metal band "Dark Buddha Rising" created an album together (with all 10 members) under the name "Waste Of Space Orchestra" (I know all the names are weird). The result is a sound that is closer to Dark Buddha Rising than it is to Oranssi Pazuzu although Oranssi Pazuzu has been going more droney on their latest album so maybe it was just a logical thing for them to do. Not trying to diminish this fantastic collab and I am sure there aren't a lot that combined both bands together, but this is one I can think of with the metal experience I have from before I discovered the Japanese rock/metal scene. And since I love Oranssi Pazuzu and enjoy both the collab and Dark Buddha Rising (I know them the least) as well, I couldn't help to mention it here, although again I suspect most people will not like them.

[@ohTHATaaronbrown]

The great thing is, these 2 bands are poised at their next major launch pad- word is really getting out now. What a pair of rabbit holes for newbies, great googly moogly. Both bands are at the peak of their powers but certainly to get better and better as well hard as that is to believe. Fantastic well thought out reaction as well I think you caught the gestalt of this performance, the love between and recognition of each others band and talents.

[@paulpetersen879]

This made me so happy. Only problem with this is that there is to much talent on the stage. You would need a 20 minute song so these 8 badass ladies could stretch out and show what they got.

[@davidcarroll3312]

Always great to see you Chase. An awesome collaboration. I wasn’t a fan of Bestie, it just sounded like an American pop song to me ( not my thing)This, this is how a collab should be done. I don’t know much about The Warning but the two bands compliment each other beautifully. It’s more of a straight hard rock song which I think is more The Warning but it has all those tasty little bits that you expect from Band Maid. I think you’re right about the vocal amplification. I first heard it in shorts and it was just a clip of the chorus and I thought it was a bit much. In seeing the whole video it’s, as you say, just a small thing and not so noticeable in the overall song. Thanks again for a great review.

[@waynebenedict4609]

What was The Warning song that Ale ended with a little bass lick? Survive? And now Misa ends similarly. A homage?

[@nichep1]

Dany’s Lzzy opening was awesome. The video/collab is…HOLY FUCK!

[@vdrlng]

Our Kanami, lead guitar for Band Maid composed the song with the idea to take both vocalists to a place where they wouldn't usually be comfortable..it was a challenge to them to try and sing beyond their normal range They met that challenge well I think - this song just ROCKS) 🎴🕊️ ° . •

[@phaeron]

Yep, there is room to argue about the mix. Some people say it's completely off, others think it's perfect because it's pretty raw. I can well imagine that with 2 full bands this must be a horror task for the person who has to create the final mix. 🤭 I'm completely with you, it's not about every band giving 100% of what they're capable of. That would also end in chaos, because even if they play in the same genre, both bands have quite different characteristics, which starts with the most obvious, the number of members. In addition, both sides respect each other and ego doesn't play a role. And the more I see/listen to this solo section, the more it becomes clear where the technical differences are.... It's all about having fun. And I think both bands had that and in the end so do we, the respective fan camps. 💥🤘🏻 _____________________ 「 _"Our rock never dies ever.

[@UltraHD.7]

What I might add is that this song's been stuck in my head now for 3 days and it doesn't seem it would ever leave. I love it 😊

[@stevekane4922]

Based on an interview with billboard Japan and another by PRS Japan. Kanami wrote the basic demo and then they passed it back and forth. Miku wrote the lyrics and then when the sisters came they made that work. The kanami took Warning in her studio and recorded them and the next day bandmaid. More than one track written by the Warning is ready to be performed when they go to Mexico. The band griped that kanami set it too high for the singers - she said "deal with it" as she does. Ale said its going to be OK when they write it 😂 Oh yes as of this morning it's trending faster than any bandmaid song, possibly ever, because I don't think Thrill took off until some time after release. In comments around the place I'm seeing more bandmaid fan enthusiasm than TW. But I haven't been following Spanish reactors and most bandmaid fans are also The Warning fans going right back to that initial meeting and before.

[@armynurseboy]

Great minds must think alike, because I although I really love the groove of the song, my only nitpick is also that the vocals were mixed too far in front (and a tad too dry) of the rest of the music. Had the vocals been pulled back a little and had some slight effects put on, it would be perfect.

[@iDEATH]

Yeah, this collab has a special place in my heart for sure. I believe it was a radio interview (subtitled in EN) with Misa where I first heard about The Warning, as she mentioned them when asked what she was listening to. So I looked 'em up, and damn! That was early 2020, right before the coof stopped the world, and I'd only discovered BAND-MAID a month or so earlier (right at the end of 2019, between Christmas and New Years). I can't overstate how much I love both bands, and all eight of these epically talented women!

[@rodrigoinostroza2359]

I think there's a confusion, I remember that the band MISA mentioned in that interview was RUIDO ROSA, also from Mexico.

[@iDEATH]

@@rodrigoinostroza2359 That could be. I've been unsure about it for years. Maybe I went from BAND-MAID to Ruido Rosa to The Warning, but somewhere along the way lost track of that middle step? I should try and find that interview with Misa again, but I'm way too lazy. lol

yes, but it's more of the video which doesn't provide more shots of Pau. But if you see live videos from Tokyo, Pau's drumming was very much standout. Especially during the 'band duel' in the interlude. They intentionally differentiate the differences to showcase each band characteristics.

[@kla4600]

Thanks for the reaction! My expectations were exceeded. It's amazing how much BAND-MAID and The Warning were able to create a sound that's halfway between the two of them. And, because they did show some restraint, the song works well on its own terms, not just as a back-and-forth specialty showcase. BAND-MAID can perform it live. And maybe The Warning can adapt a live version, too, though they'll have to strip it down a little to account for just one guitar. I'm always one who wants the lead guitar mixed a little higher. Well, the awesome belting, keening vocals from Saiki and Dany were the core of the song, so they were very front stage during the chorus. Though maybe only a little too much.

Agreed about the vocals ... the 'all belting all the time' style is not my favorite but as someone pointed out Kanami wrote this as a challenge for Saiki and Dani so I can certainly live with that ... if Kanami told me she would like to amputate my legs, I guess I could learn to live a legless life ;-) That said, what is this now, Band-Maid's 3rd colab? I don't want to be mean to the other colab partners, but this is by far the best of those colabs ... after 'Dragon's Cry' I was leaning toward the opinion that 'Blues' was the only Kanami 'weakness' ... but this song had some pretty straight forward blues lines, and Kanami turned it up a notch ... I'm pretty particular with my blues guitarists, and don't really like the blues for the most part, but Kanami just vaulted herself into the top of the rock-n-blues charts with her amazing blue's solos on this one.
