Band Maid is the best band of Hard Rock now in the world.

Rock and Roll has not died, it just got a passport and a new outfit!

Band Maid has done something for me that I have not experienced in many years with music. What are these great ladies going to give us next. The anticipation can make you nuts. This group is so diverse it makes in impossible to figure what path will be taken. Enjoy the journey if you chose to go further.. Japan has many very good all female bands. For me Band Maid is top tier.

The language barrier disappears as the music grabs your heart and mind.....I've had the most pleasure and fun seeing these ladies live twice in New York City in 2019....Best rock band today!

MISA!!!! MISA!!!!!! MISA!!!!!!! The best Badass Bass Assassin. Band-Maid is not a stereo typical Japanese female band. These 5 ladies are a punch you in your face Hard Rock band. Don't let the Maid outfits fool you. It's part of "the gap" that many Japanese bands try to achieve. You have to see their Live videos. This MV is good but you don't get to see how much fun these musicians have on stage and with their fans. React to Play, Onset, Moratorium, Don't you Tell Me, Domination from 2/14/20

Jimmy Page praised Akane (the drummer) when he heard Band-Maid at an award ceremony and there's a cool looking photo of the two together. Great timing, dynamite energy, always finds a way to add something to the song, manages to pump me up and make me smile at the same time. And there's another four of them like that! An interviewer said to Miku (rhythm guitar/vocal and founder of the band) that it was great to have found such a talented group of girls, Miku smiled like a Cheshire cat and said, kiseki-po-a miracle.

Dice used to be my favorite Band Maid song. Then the new album came out and now Blooming is my favorite. Please react to the MV for Blooming. I guarantee it will blow you away.

Hands down the best live band in the world.

You just found my favourite band in the world today. Saw them live in London two years ago and I was instantly hooked. Best feel-good rock I've heard in years. You have to watch a live track to really see what These girls can do. Try Moratorium or Real Existence to see the chemistry these ladies have on stage. Enjoy 😁

thanks rocky for reaction try domination live recently

Welcome aboard, Rocky. You are embarking on (along with many others) an awesome hard-rock journey with 5 incredible women. Here's my intro blurb for those who may be new to Band-Maid: BAND-MAID’s songs and sound beat with the heart and soul of rock n’ rollers. But you’ll also hear heavy influences of Punk, Metal and Pop, with nice touches of Blues, Funk and Grunge. Sometimes they use multiple genres within the same song. Their Composition, Execution, Consistency (nearly 100 songs with new album, “Conqueror”), Uniqueness, Charisma, Charm and, oh yeah, Cuteness factor, position them as becoming the hard rock Beatles of our time! In other words, they’re destine for mega-stardom. Each member's personalities are super interesting and their musicianship among the best. Their writing, arrangements and overall sound, especially guitar tones and drums, are kick-ass! Having seen them LIVE, I can honestly say their performance, sound, stage appearance, and band synergy is off the rails spectacular. Band-Maid is the only band in decades where I love nearly EVERY song they’ve done. I have over 50 favorites! "Thrill" (2014) is a great place to start: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i8qjaspkspOYnIU.html Their later songs drive even more - Rin’ne, Blooming, Moratorium, Domination, Clang, Dice, Spirit, Turn Me On, Fate, Play, Hide-And-Seek, Secret My Lips, Puzzle, Glory, Choose Me, I Can’t Live Without You, and on and on. But don’t miss out on their powerful, beautifully written, mid-tempo songs like Daydreaming, Anemone, Endless Story, PAGE and Smile... or more punky like Don’t Let Me Down and Screaming… or funky like Bubble… or bluesy like The Dragon Cries… or poppy like Start Over… or cultural like the Band-Maiko series! And many are represented with over 25 well produced music videos. kzfaq.info Most performances should be experienced from their LIVE concerts such as Tokyo's LINE CUBE SHIBUYA on February 14th (sample “Domination” kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8iphKZ705zWiZs.html), ZEPP 2018, Shinkiba Studio Coast 2017 and some of the better 2019 tour Fan vids. Here’s three of what it’s like to see Band-Maid LIVE at super intimate venues. The first taken by Vladimir Chupin in Hamburg: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lcVhp8toyNrLfaM.html, the second taken by JT Dayo in LA: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/att5jKWcpt_Gc30.html, and third, JOSER8845 in LA: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9mHjdmdrK2og6c.html. If you like Band-Maid, make sure to support them by purchasing some concert tickets, CD, DVD/BD & Merch, etc. bandmaid.tokyo Like most Band-Maid songs, I like them from the get-go but really start to appreciate them after more hearings and seeing their LIVE videos. I'll go back and see an older song like YOLO, Order, Shake That, Freezer, Before Yesterday, Real Existence, Non Fiction Days and Alone, etc. and realize there's no band that can consistently construct and play like Band-Maid. For fun, check out an awesome, little known "Mega Band-Maid Mix" by DJ Ray of some of their earlier stuff: facebook.com/djrayboston/videos/1004709499579009 Band-Maid members are: (Ages are best est.). Saiki Atsumi “Ice Queen" - Lead vocals, arrangements, melodies and High Priestess mediator between the Gods (Band Members) and the masters and princesses (Fans). At 26 and the youngest, “Sensei” (Leader) as Miku calls her, has the last word on many musical decisions. High-heels or sneakers, Sai-chan’s smile melts away the persona. Her charisma, performance and voice focus the experience. Miku Kobato "Small Pigeon" - Rhythm guitar, vocals, lyricist, 28 years old. “Koba”, as Saiki calls her, is the Band founder and a firecracker MC & PR SpokesPigeon, po! Her “Magic Spell Time” charm and energy ignite the room. Kurrupo! No, no, no… KURRUPO!! Kanami Tono “Princess” - Lead guitar, keyboards, 28 years old, is a prolific writer of most Band-Maid material. Kanami (translates “Song Wave”) is a possessed riff-slayer who’s so damn adorable it hurts. The only thing you want from Mincho is more! Akane Hirose "Gorilla" - Drums, 29 years old, band energizer & co-clown with MISA. Achi’s talents include massive consumption of noodles and bananas, of course, (even during performance!) while revolutionizing rock drumming with relentless drive, dynamics and the kick. This “DrumRilla” is the Party! MISA "Assassin" - Bass, 27 years old. A sullen, barefoot, dark spirit driving her 5-string bottom-end to hell and back, off-stage MISA is the band’s goofball ballerina. The Mysterious One literally kills it… every note.. uniting Band-Maid’s world-class rhythm section. A slug of JB, a slight grin, and let the slappin’ begin… MISA! MISA! MISA!

Welcome, brother.

they are great and DICE is a non stop rocker

You are going to get some views on this, there is a whole big fan base out there and they eat these reaction vids up, I am one of them. They excel at live on stage performances. Dice is good, but not a mind blower for me. Domination (Live 2020) Moritorium(Live) Turn me on(Live from the Zepp, subtitled) Onset(Live Instrumental) Puzzle(Live) Freedom(Live) Rinne(MV) Blooming(MV)

MISA MISA MISA!

Welcome to the best hard rock band on the planet.

Oh boy this is just a start. Japanese bands is so addictive, it's another massive galaxy of awesomeness in music! More Bando-Maid po! Moratorium/Onset live next please! /,,/

Another new people reacting to Band-Maid Me : I'm gonna sit back and enjoy this one 👏

World Domination the album this is on is the best rock album of 2018. not one bad song on that album. Not just hyping..for real. Check it out. And their newest album Conqueror just as good if not better. Lucky you for discovering this treasure. have fun with the experience

Nice reaction! I think DICE is a really good way to start with BAND-MAID and they have more songs like this. This one is more on their Hard Rock side, but they can go very heavy or sweet, incorporating elements of Funk, Metal, Punk, Blues, Pop or Jazz. I think this band is very versatile in the way they put these influences together in one song. And you'll be blown away on how good this band is live, they sound amazing and they always bring energy and entertainment. I don't want to overwhelm you with lot of suggestions, so I'll go with two songs: -Blooming: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q7ukkq1zstXHe4E.html -Rinne (this one is more heavy): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebdpl8V2u82-k3U.html Hope you'll like them!

Originally, Kanami played Addictone guitars but once she was noticed, she’s been PRS all the way! Kanami- PRS / Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier + 8 or 9 different pedals Miku- Zemaitis Custom / EVH( EDDIE VAN HALEN ) stack + various pedals MISA- Black Cloud custom 5 string bass / Orange stack Oh by the way- JIMMY PAGE OF (LED ZEPPELIN) loves BAND-MAID, enough said....

BAND-MAID Rocking Out Is What's Going On!

Welcome to Band Maid

Эти девчонки любого мужика в ступор загонят, такой напор !!! Я в шоке, как-будто меня износиловала банда японских девчонок ! :))) но я доволен ! ;)

This just made my day! Someone finally started with Dice! Yes 🤣

🤘🤘❤🤘🤘 MISA MISA MISA!!!! 🤘🤘

Band Maid 👐 Check out more of them! You will not regret....

It's great that you picked up on the chemistry between Akane (drums) and MISA (bass): they're best friends in real life and spend a lot of their free time together. They're one of the most musically accomplished and tightest rhythm sections I've ever heard.

great reac to the best band in hard rock today. Band Maid saved Rock IMO. Subbed.

try Onset LIve to see a the instrumental chemistry then go into Moratorium live adding back the singer

welcome to band maid 😊😎🤙

After watching like every Band Maid music video. I know enjoy watching Band Maid react videos they always put a Smile on my Face

One night I was walking alone in the middle of the highway and sudendlly I saw a truck with the lights on and running over the speed limit, the truck hit me so bad, i didn´t see the plate number, the only thing I could see when I look back was the name of BAND MAID on it.

Is was my first intro to Band-Maid and it was a great day indeed, I love these girls.

Just stopped to say that BAND-MAID gets you a new subscriber.

I'm a simple man. I see BAND-MAID reaction, I like and subscribe. The fact that they write their own music & lyrics immediately makes them better then 99% of the bands out there nowadays. Band-Maid literally does not have a dud song in their catalogue. They're all amazing. Here are some recommendations: BAND-MAID - DOMINATION (Feb. 14th, 2020): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8iphKZ705zWiZs.html BAND-MAID - Don't You Tell Me (live) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nNWheNWTqt2UZaM.html BAND-MAID - PLAY Live: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j8uZfM2mxNqVdGw.html BAND-MAID - 輪廻 ( RINNE ): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebdpl8V2u82-k3U.html BAND-MAID - Onset (live): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNWAZ6t30a2mhX0.html

“PLAY” live is a good next choice. Welcome to BANDMAID... Literally all their songs are great... 😋

Love the way you put up the band info well done

"Domination" LIVE 👉🤘

Having seen them live in LA last September l can assure you that they are all that and more live. Your very best hard rock band on the planet today is: Saiki "l'm the only normal person here" Atsumi, lead vocalist Kanami "My heart belongs to Saiki" Tono, lead guitarist, piano and music writer. MISA, the assassin, bassist (Her name is stylized all caps because there are a million Misa in Japan but only one MISA. Akane "half gorilla" Hirose, Drummer and Looper. And last but never last is Miku "l rent a little space in my head to an 810 year old pigeon" Kobato, the band's founder. The sometimes hyper and often loquacious Ms Kobato is the lyricist, rhythm guitarist and Chief Spokespigeon in charge. She is also responsible for casting spells and performing magic. They are the best hard rock band on the planet today.

thanks for reacting to bandmaid. its my fav asian band. and I love misa and her black cloud bass.

You have taken your first steps down the Pidgeon Hole that is Band-Maid fandom. Enjoy the ride! The cornerstone of any good band (rock or otherwise) is it's rhythm section. Without a solid rhythm section your band goes nowhere. These ladies don't clean houses,they clean clocks!!! I would say that the girl with the doll symbolizes someone who is afraid to leave her place of comfort so she clutches her doll and stays blind to the possibility that life has to offer until she allows curiosity to take over and she removes the blindfold to take her chances in the unknown.

Nice reaction... you should check them out playing live in their live concert at Zepp Tokyo in 2018.... A lot of their songs actually sound better than their studio albums....

You have been assimilated into the BAND-MAID Collective. Resistance Is Futile! 🤘

Nice reaction..... I like your video presentation.... keep it up.... 🤟🤟🤟🤟

can't stop laughing "man, this is a mindfuck"

I love watching everyone's first reaction to the Band-Maid.

❤Miku❤❤Kanami❤❤Misa❤❤Akane❤❤Saiki❤ BAND-MAID They will break your heart and your ear drums. Then clean house!

These girls should cover Minus Celsius by the Back Yard Babies... thad be great

Welcome to the Band-Maid rabbit hole. They are a Rock/Pop band and have some hard songs and some straight up Pop songs. They could play the phone book and I would watch. They don't make a bad song, so anything you pick to react to will be good. Here is another band I know you will like. It's a Japanese metal band that has been at it for 30+ years and it shows. Make sure you turn on closed captions for this one. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ech5apyWms--e6c.html

Please react another awesome group from japan. "Passcode - Trace" live performance. I know you will like it

Jackie Chan is Hong Kong.

Yep,BAND-MAID live is definitely the way to go.But for a guy named "Rocky Harder" you should first check out the MV of "Rinne".It's one of their fastest & heaviest songs,proving these girls kill it at any style they choose to play.

I want you reaction they,don't you tell me (live) if you want see bass n guitar battle 😄. Thx..so much

This was my first reaction to Band-Maid all over again, my mind was blown. Welcome to the club :)

Dude, it's a music video! It's got nothing to do with anything. I love this band!

Check out the official live videos

Akane is a godess

If you like Band Maid you really need to check out Lovebites , Aldious, and Mary's Blood.

Their music is so good it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand a word of Japanese, after a few listens the songs get stuck in your head (in the best kind of way)

*BAND-MAID* just dropped a video *BAND-MAID / カタルシス "Catharsis" Acoustic Ver* just posted _(The video Limited Time Release so please react to it)_

React to them live, any fan will tell you, they are one of the few bands who are better live. You should try Puzzle, one of my favorites

I found them 'accidentally" in February and this may have been the song but I was hooked and still am 4 months later. I have all their stuff now. lol. I just got the latest DVD last week. It never goes away. My reaction today is the same as it was the first time. Enjoy!

Wow! A reaction video maker who actually reacts and has the decency to research about the Band and post the information on the screen. Well done for your first Band Maid reaction video. As others have mentioned, like other Japanese bands, the live shows are where it is at with Band Maid. They do have several MV's but some are rather hit and miss, in my view. You will be hard pushed to find a track you will not like with Band Maid if you wish to react to more of their material. For another 'mind blown' Japanese band, have a look at Lovebites. The link is for a live version of their song, Rising. Although live, it is from a DVD so post production and on stage backing is present but you will not be disappointed! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mrx8qNhy15q-oHk.html

He has experienced the « gap ». There’s no way back. The addiction is on first shoot.

The lead guitar Listened to Santana growing up and other guitar greats..

Welcome to the Rabbit Hole of BANDMAID......and great Reaction. You should try MORATORIUM next 💯🎶🙌

Band Maid are amazing, its great that people are discovering Japanese metal. Please check out Unlucky Morpheus black pentogram.

Welcome to Japanese metal 😎

Welcome to our world. Check Domination live 2020

Pls.Pls do react to "TriDent" song "continue" Junna the drummer of this band is no.1 in Japan.🔥🙏🏻❣️❣️❣️❣️ All girls.

Just a quick warning Japanese rock/metal can be addictive, there is something about the way they write songs. If your intrested here are a couple of others to try: Unlucky Morpheus - Black Pentagram Lovebites - Shadowmaker The Gazette - Ugly

These days I know Japanese enough to be able to follow lyrics sung in Japanese, but back in the day (like 20 years ago) I didn't, but it didn't stop me from enjoying the music from Japan. It's kind of freeing, that you don't understand the lyrics so they don't take your attention away from the music. And yous tart to realize that most music on pop-charts etc. is 1:1 the same damn crap but with different lyrics and it drives you nuts because you realize that if you hadn't understood the language, you would have paid more attention to the music as a whole and realize what kind of garbage you're listening to. And I like the fact that these women are a real BAND. They could be the newest product of faceless Japanese idol industry with no souls of their own. Where others make their music and they're just the figure heads of someone else's music and their dressup could be some idol producers newest fad that they think men like and that sells... but no. They are a band that composes and plays their own music and they choose together what to wear and what kind of music they want to make.... So I appreciate that.

It took me way to long to realize that the mouse pointer was yours, not mine…

Great! Now you're ready for Babymetal 🦊🔥

"This is a mindfuck....." You, my friend, have just been punched in the face with "The Gap." It's the dissonance you feel between what you see and what you hear.......and was done on purpose.....

Activate your Windows already. Go to settings to activate.

How have you watched so much Band Maid and never reacted to BabyMetal? Death Legend 1997

This is the best hard rock band in the world today and they are even better live. As for cute Japanese girls surprising you with their music, well you got some great surprises ahead. Japan all female metal bands are killing it and have been for about a decade. I would highly suggest these bands and songs as an intro: Bridear-Light in the Dark, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g7J9Zdifu5bPp4k.html Mary’s Blood-Moebius Loop, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eOCCmJSQpsyWj2w.html Lovebites-When Destinies Align, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nrJ2mM96npm6m4E.html Plus many many others

React Onset Live too plis

Could you someone tell me why Jackie Chan appears on the reaction to Band-Maid? Does JC have something with this kind of music? Or any cultural background?

I appreciate the effort you put into the videos, with the slides and such. That's cool. As far as this video... man, videos can be weird, and often you get "is this an interesting visual?" instead of "is this an interesting visual that goes with the song?" I think the song is, more or less, trying to convince someone living a very sheltered life to step out of their comfort zone and live a little. Roll the dice, that type of thing. Translations of Japanese can be difficult because Japanese is written in three different writing types (kanji, hiragana, katakana) which represent ideas. (Admittedly, I'm *really* simplifying here.) It really takes fluency to truly get the gist of what is being said, and then compose the same idea in English. Google translate is truly awful at Japanese. Band-Maid often throw in English, but it seems to be used more as a "spice" to give their music an international feel, and also make it just a little more accessible outside Japan.

LOL!!!! Typical reaction...WHAT?? Stop the tape, go back to beginning because they blew you away with the hard and fast intro. Head bobbing hard towards the end... YOU'RE In DUDE!! Welcome to Band-Maid, your journey is about to begin... Enjoy!

Hi from the UK check out misa misa misa misas bass live at zepp Tokyo Also check the band nightwish this band has a massive following in Europe and the internet it's a symphonic metal band from Finland with a Dutch singer (floor Jansen the valkyrie) Nightwish ghost love score wacken open air concert 2013 Nightwish song of myself wacken open air concert 2013 Nightwish story time wacken open air concert 2013 And prepare for the nightwish army to arive at the door lol

this is the ONLY one where the video is better. The live one does NOT do the song justice.

Band-Maid、なめんなよ！

Interesting Fact: What does K-POP group Blackpink and Band-Maid have in common - Blackpink song "AS IF IT`S YOUR LAST' has the EXACT same chores beat as Band-Maid "Made in Japan" CD, bonus song #9 (愛と情熱のマタドール, "Love, Passion, Matador")" written by musician Kentaro Akutsu in 2014.

Tony Sunnhag on the thumbnail... why?

Babymetal would be cool for you to check them out, but don't do gimme chocolate first as people tend not to like it the first time they hear. Karate or rondo of nightmare would be better. Thanks.

LOVEBITES / Japanese girl band Hard metal music When Destinies Align [4K MUSIC VIDEO] kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nrJ2mM96npm6m4E.html Rising (OFFICIAL VIDEO) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eJ1gfdaA1dO5d3k.html Shadowmaker [MUSIC VIDEO] kzfaq.info/get/bejne/et2lldaZ38-UaX0.html The Crusade [MUSIC VIDEO] kzfaq.info/get/bejne/idGUmrefx9OWhKs.html

Understanding the lyrics isn't really necessary, They put just enough english in to get the gist. "Winning and losing its all the same, throw the dice and take your chance". I got no idea what the doll is for, creepy.

I have yet to hear a bad Band-Maid song. Back in the 70's and the 80's a lot of bands had that one or two hits on an album and the balance of the songs were shite! Not here. All grade A++ songs.
