Ryan Mear has listened to many Band-Maid songs and he now says that Kanami is the most complete guitar player and composer he has ever heard. Ever! He goes on to say that he hasn't fallen in love with a band this fast in decades. If that's not a great compliment, what is? I couldn't say it better myself. I think you feel the same way, don't you?

[@phaeron]

Actually, it's unfair, but with many songs you just have to apply the saying of one of your colleagues: 'Welcome to the Akane Show'. Her work and creativity on the drums is so hugely important to the impact and energy of their songs. Akane alone is able to leave other complete bands out in the rain, but as a group together with the others, they always create something magical. :) 🥁 _____________________ 【 Our rock never dies ever.

[@scottmcgregor562]

Hey Wave.Your one comment struck a nerve with me, because my wife and daughter said the same thing (that I love Band Maid because they're cute). My immediate sarcastic response was, "of course women would never like a band or singer because the guys are cute". Looks will only go so far with me. There are plenty of hot shredders on Instagram, many are forgettable. For a while I blew off Band Maid when I first saw them on my KZbin feed because they were actually "too cute" looking. When I finally came around, my jaw was on the floor. They are a breath of fresh air in rock from scowling ugly guys dressed in black and playing everything that they know in 30 seconds. Also a special shout out to Miku with her "power harmonies" that she sings while playing not easy and typical rhythm guitar. Saiki doesn't get enough accolades, I think because she is always perfect and spot on in every song. Keep up your insightful review/analysis.

[@armynurseboy]

Dud your wife and daughter actually bother to give them a listen? If so, what was their thoughts after....?

[@scottmcgregor562]

@@armynurseboy pretty much "They're ok, I don't get it". My wife is pretty much about pop music form the 70s-90s, my daughter is about 90s late 2000s pop music and country. I on the other hand have been a musician over 45 years. I have always listened to female artists. I honestly think that they are judging a book by it's cover like I was. They are not the most discriminating as far as talent goes. Also they don't get the whole maid image. They are like too many Americans who will not give any non english music a chance.

[@sugoruyo]

I dismissed them in the beginning in the same way. I don’t really care if they look like goat herders in their 70s with massive moustaches and unibrows. I listen because their music is fresh, uplifting, interesting and very energetic.

[@scottmcgregor562]

Dice is the first Band-Maid song I ever heard, and I was hooked immediately. You are correct about their looks having little to do with their appeal. Tell Rosie, that even if they all looked like Danny Devito, they would be the greatest rock band on the planet right now.

[@powbobs]

Akane calls those heavy bass and drum sections “ Super Be-Dra Time”. And she and MISA love it.

[@sacluvsBM]

I saw Band-Maid on September 30, 2019. But that was not the last big show pre Covid. On October 9, 2019 l saw the Who and Liam Gallagher. And my last show was Aftershock here in Sacramento. Tool and Korn headlined but number three on the bill was Babymetal. And now for signs of hope. Tomorrow, right here in my backyard Aftershock 2021 has returned. 4 sold out days at Discovery Park headlined by Metallica. Daily attendance of 40,000 for four days. Metallica promises each of their sets will have different songs so if you come more than one day you will not see the same show. You must have proof of vaccination to attend. I went through all of this to show folks with a little common sense life will return and very quickly. Long live Band-Maid. Long live rock. Sacramento loves Band-Maid and l fully expect them here at next year's event. Best regard. "Winning or losing l'm playing". - small pigeon. (From Dice.)

Make sure you go to Band-Maid Prime to see/hear Saiki play acoustic guitar and sing "Different"!

[@melocitysolo9574]

I think many people say, "I was looking into the rabbit hole with a dubious face, and the intro of this song kicked my butt into the hole." Saiki sings like this at the beginning of his lyrics. "There is no turning back." That's right.

[@sceif]

"Thrill" was my first video from them and caught my interest. "Dice" was my second and the first fifteen seconds made me a maidiac for life. Still one of my favorites and will always hold a special place in my heart.

[@K.H.D710]

Same here! Thrill was my first, and I got interested in this band. So I decided to check some more, and Dice and Domination (live) were my 2nd and 3rd. I was hooked ever since.

[@jimmorrisonisamaidiac]

They have their own sound for sure, nothing like them. One of the most satisfying aspects for me is the tone MISA gets from her rig. I feel she is the most accomplised musician, the most outstanding.

[@chrisegbertky]

I like your comment Jim but as much as I admire MISA when I think about Akane. I can't go there. Thankfully I don't have to. Holy moley this band has taken their talent and combined it with hard work to achive greatness.

[@jimmorrisonisamaidiac]

@@chrisegbertky Maybe a better wording is I think MISA is the best bassist around today. Where as Akane is among to best for drummers. Kanami is a great guitar player, but her writing is the kicker for me. Saiki, a lead singer that seems to go out of her way to not overshadow the others. The anti-David Lee Roth. And Miku is just pure magic in a human body. There is nothing about this band I don't enjoy. I hope the merch I ordered last month from Japan shows up soon! Anyways I am not saying my opinion is right or wrong, I just remember noticing how much that bass grabbed my attention right off the bat. I'll say it again, they have the group dynamics to rival the Beatles. And that is my official ultimate compliment to this band.

[@jimmorrisonisamaidiac]

@md 42jkl Very interesting. Anyways and again, the band is more than the sum of their individual parts, just like the Beatles.

In the end he said he didn't like female voices in Rock, he needs a grungy growling voice... sigh... and he plays guitar!

@@JGM0JGM Sadly, I think we've all found this can be a common thing...though I'm still amazed when friends my own age (60) who have long personal experience of great music from the 60's onwards just don't get it. I've tried explaining the complexity of the compositions, the skills required to play them, the camaraderie and friendship and respect for each other in the band, etc (even, for a couple of long-time friends who saw Zeppelin with me back in 79, the fact that Jimmy Page asked Akane for a selfie, which is quite an endorsement) but nothing gets through. I hooked a couple of friends with Onset and No Holding Back as they were instrumentals and impressive ones too but once I gave them a song with Saiki singing, they moaned they couldn't understand it.

Band constructs the melody in several precisely arranged layers of multiple instruments (and singing). I think, it sounds like a symphony and many people think all symphonies sounds the same. Until you listen to it several times and start to find detail after detail. Or you are a professional musician (Or an experienced listener) who can separate and hear the different layers.

If anyone say I like them for their looks, I'll show them bands that looks better than Band Maid, I'd say, Band Maid try as hard as they can to look as good as others the same way as they try their hardest to make music that sound better than others,

Very few American women can bring themselves to like female-fronted or all-female bands. Must be too threatening. Watch the crowd at a symphonic rock concert in Europe or Asia or South America, and it's full of women. So much for being woke.
