Seriously, one of my top 3 BAND-MAID songs! Mincho has commented that this was one of her most challenging arrangements to compose, and that she loves playing it. She's a genius. Sai-chan's vocals are soaring and haunting, at the same time. And Miku's (po!) backing vocals are just perfect. And... said it before, saying it again... A-chan and MISA MISA MISA are right up there with the best of all drums/bass partnerships. Unbelievably excellent!

Too many reactions to Band Maid, ask this question, proving they completely fail to understand what Band Maid is about. Here is a completely different song from Band Maid, which defiantly does not get listened to by me. I know this track was a change in direction so I don't hold that idea against any band trying out new ideas but fortunately, in my view it was more or less a one off.

Her vocals give me goddamn chills on this song. I think the reason why sometimes heavy music fans frown on ballads is because a lot of them feel like so much filler. This doesn't feel like filler. Everyone's still giving their all to make this song everything it can be and they're still paying attention to details like never making the second verse quite the same as the first. The details are always was lifts good music into truly great music. That they are this good at the details when none of them are yet 30... I literally can't even imagine how high they can go in the future. But I'm very much looking forward to it!

I didn't really like the song, When the dragon cries when it first came out. Probably because I'm not really into the whole conceptual video thing. I would rather have just seen them performing it. Or working on it in the studio as the actual official clip. But when I saw them before the live version of this song, it blew me away. It sounded like there was a lot intricate parts. On the original version, and they might have trouble replicating that live. They nailed it, and hit it out of the park. Great performance of that song !

Band-maid is the best Japanese hard-rock girl band at this moment, but when it comes to power metal genre, metal- ballad fusion, lovebites might be the best. Aldius is another great one, and the singer's English is really, really good. I mean love bites and aldius both sing predominantly in English. I personally find band-maid more musically interesting but those two power metal bands are great. Babymetal is also good but the vocals puts me off a bit. Super junky monkey is another all girl rock band from the 90s. I think Japanese girl rock bands are far better than boy rock bands.

I pretty much love BAND-MAID. My favorite band at the moment. Havent really listened to rock in years (10 years maybe? Was really into EDM for the last few years) but then the last year started getting into JROCK after hearing scandal, one OK rock, fear and loathing in las vegas, etc. Ive hear of BAND-MAID but never actually heard any of their songs. Stumbled across one of their videos on YT and havent looked back. Domination was probably my favorite originally. Freedom, Blooming, and YOLO were also up there. After a few listens this song is now on of my favorites. Check out Wonderland if you havent already! Saiki hits some high notes which is pretty cool to hear. I think that song is currently my favorite.
