I was at this show. Was lucky enough to meet Li-sa, Hazuki and Kotono afterwards. It was a fantastic evening.

Wow Hazuki is super bad ass and cute as hell!!!! She is also kicking ass in Nemophila!!!😊❤❤

Brilliant! Hope they do more like this!

Awesome song, I have been enjoying this Blu Ray they put out all weekend, it sold out for the overseas audience in less than 24 hours. Hazuki & Lisa-x are great together, I keep forgetting they have known each other since 2017 before nemophila.

@kevinbowland4686 Ай бұрын

The level of musicianship in Japan is next level. You need to see the bassist Wakazaemon in East of Eden. How good is she? she tours with Marty Friedman. Hazuki & Lisa-X stellar as always.

@WavePotter Ай бұрын

You don’t see her much in this video because it’s dark and she’s not in it much, but Wakazaemon is the bassist in this performance!

This is completely mind-blowing.

Thanks, Hazuki & Lisa seem to be upper their game.

@MaartenT Ай бұрын

It's great that they got Wakazaemon as a guest bassist for this one. What a great fit with their new (and amazing) drummer Kanade Sato. I love hearing Kanade play metal stuff like this since I am mainly used to her Jazz Fusion with Ear Candy Jazz Factory and Muses (which are both great as well). I am not surprised she kills it though, she is really good. I just received my copy of the Blu-ray today, this makes me hyped to watch it (I do prefer this over the other track to be fair).

@maximushaughton2404 Ай бұрын

Kanade Sato is also in ALMONDot. They are a bit crazy like Hanabie, but without the growls.

@MaartenT Ай бұрын

@@maximushaughton2404 Strange, they aren't mentioned on her website while Muses, Ear Candy Jazz Factory and Koiai are front and center on the homepage. It might just be a support job she did or something, but I am curious to check that out. No disrespect to Sae and Chika, I actually think both of them are the most technically gifted instrumentalists that have been in Hanabie, but a band like that with a very technical drummer sounds like it can be really cool. EDIT: ALMONDot might be a 2-piece project, if you look at their yt page, the old videos have 2 of them and the banner has 2 faces "cut-off", so she is probably a live support drummer. That said, she did that for Koiai as well and turned into a fulltime member, so who knows. I am for sure going to watch that live video though. Edit 2: Kanade Sato also plays live and on most of the newer solo albums from Rie a.k.a Suzaku, although the new livestreamed show Rie is going to do (today I believe) is with Mimi from Tokyo Groove Jyoshi on drums.

@maximushaughton2404 Ай бұрын

@@MaartenT I think it's one of those ones that it's hard to get your head around. Kanade has posted she was support for the band on their 1st live show. The ALMOUNDot webpage list her as a member, but not on YT, also Kanade has been in all their videos. I know Rie a.k.a Suzaku sometimes uses Haruka, from Fate Gear as well as a drummer sometimes.

@MaartenT Ай бұрын

@@maximushaughton2404 If the ALMOUNDot webpage lists her as a member, it's probably up to Kanade if she has time to be a fulltime member or not. I assume she at least is going to support them in the forseable future then. They are a really new band from what I can see, so things can change quickly. I am really curious about this, though. I will try to keep my eye on it. And yes, Rie seemingly loves to collab with a lot of different people. Senri Kawaguchi also recorded drums for her on at least one album back in the day and has played with her live. I have also seen her use 2 or 3 different keyboard players over the years. In that sense Juna Serita is a great fit because she is basically the same. Haruka seems to be similar as well, she does her Haruka Super Sessions every once in a while which hve a lot of different people on stage from all kinds of bands, some of them pretty big ones like Loudness.

I have the Blu-ray and it is an amazing show. I'm so into this band right now. Hazuki does a great instrumental version of Iron Maidens "The Trooper". There's also a Babymetal back up dancer reunion with Kotono and Saya Hirai who do a couple dance routines together to background music. I definitely look forward to future work from these ladies!

@Dead-EyeMetal Ай бұрын

The Dream Theater and Polyphia influences are pretty evident in Lisa's stuff. They're a great band, and Kotono hits her cues spot on.

@blucehee40 Ай бұрын

Lisa-xの成長を応援しよう！　😊

@Jeff-oh5ko Ай бұрын

Glad to hear you weigh in on this. My sense is that KOIAI (ALL CAPS ALL THE TIME!!) is first and foremost a Lisa-X driven thing, and she seems to want to reach a broad audience. All of which is fine with me - I like the more melodic song-structure style as well. Would like to see them succeed.

@timbaker7238 Ай бұрын

Yeah, this song is so prog!

@maximushaughton2404 Ай бұрын

I wouldn't say that not having a defining sound or style is a problem. Just look at Gacharic Spin a band that refuses to be pigeonholed, and talking of pigeon's you could throw Band Maid in there, yes they are both rockish bands. Hell you could throw Babymetal in there as well, they are metal + j pop + something else + a different thing. I know in the west we do like bands to stick to a defining sound or style, as we like to pigeonhole bands, But to me KOIAI are a new rock band, with some of the best in Japan as members. Whereas Gacharic Spin & Band Maid had a back catalog, so we could accept them being over the place with a sound and style.

@kicorse Ай бұрын

That bit has been ringing a bell for me, and I know that song of yours! Anyway, this song is genius. It's easily my favourite of theirs too, but more generally I think it's cool that they're doing something novel, blending prog-metal style technicality with pop-rock (it's just that pop-rock isn't usually my thing unless it has a lot of passion in it). So I'd support them in continuing on the path they're on.

@sloan495 Ай бұрын

I really like them. Hope they stay tohgether for a long time. Kotono is such an amazing professional dancer, I kinda expected her to have more of a stage presence that she does in the two they realased. Seemed alomst a little shy to me.

@normwilliams2797 Ай бұрын

Yes, I noticed that about Kotono as well.

@RobinC63 7 күн бұрын

I think her reserved style in this song fits the vocal part completely.

@sloan495 6 күн бұрын

@RobinC63 Agreed on this one, but I was meaning overall on the two that have been released. She is an excellent performer. Hope to see more of that side in future live releases. Like lots of great dancing in Twice "Better".

If you want a great example of those sections you described as circus like go and listen to Kaizers Orchestra. It’s more of a cabaret feel.

@stevekane4922 25 күн бұрын

Well if bandmaid are anything to go by, having such a varied but masterful catalogue just keeps us from straying too far. There is such a tradition in the best Japanese rock in switching styles several times in a song - maximum the Hormone, or every bar - sokoninaru, and making it totally work. In all cases for some reason a really great drummer helps it work.
