Completely agreed. I did not know about Kanade on drums. This explains a lot ... So cool. 👍🤘🙏 Hope she is or will be the official and regular drummer of this amazing band.

the drummer that would fit perfectly in this band would be Bunga Bangsa. Check out her cover of Lisa's (blackpink member) song "lalisa" and you'll get my point.

Wait, Miho? THE Miho? Former Lovebites? Anyway, weird that the video does not show the drummer and bass player. Keyboards, I'm used to that. But the others, it was weird. :-)

@@jotampa So agreed

Miho. 💜 If that's her, this is bittersweet. 😕 I wish her nothing but happiness and success - I just wish it was as a member of the band she created...

Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 We say "Japan is a country obsessed by Rock Music". I believe the obsession started in 1966 when Beatles visited Japan and held 5 concerts at Budokan. Talking about hard rock / heavy metal music, a number of bands started to come to Japan thereafter : Led Zeppelin / Grand Funk Railroad (1971), Deep Purple (1972), Iron Maiden (1981) and so on. Now, any type of rock can be enjoyed here and we can see a number of good male bands, too. In a popular TV program, Keiko, a lead singer of Show-Ya (a pioneer of Japanese all-female bands) and Saki (Nemophila) emphasized one thing saying "BABYMETAL is not a ALL-female band, but thanks to their international success many music fans in foreign countries became aware of female bands in Japan. They opened doors for us". Uh oh, we also say "Japan is a country obsessed by Jazz". It had started earlier than rock 😄

@@flugelhornoldman1362 you are so much more than welcome, brother. Besides all the things you mention upthere, You people, have a plus. Which you have a method, for everything. You don't try and get lucky. You have a goal and work hardly on it. I mean, when you succeed, and you truly do. Is not because of a lucky strike. So you deserves to succeed . The problem Is, i think, Is that there's no Japanese band that ever succeed like those bands you mentioned above. And Why Is that? Not because of them but because of the record companies. They don't know how to handle it, and sometimes, they are not even interested. I mean, as an example, Band Maid's been playing for almost ten years. And there they are, still as a record company product when the whole World Is waitting for them to get the place they deserves on The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. And so it Is with Many other bands. Female and male bands. You people are really good and talented, and yes, you are right. As many others, i started with Baby Metal with Rob Halford. You people are from Valhalla, Nippon Is an amazing country and culture. Greetings from Argentina. Kanpai 🍻. People use to say that Rock n Roll Is dead. Well, Is just because they didn't listen some Japanese style yet. And what you say about jazz, Is also true. But like i said, you kick ass on everything you do. Again, kanpai 🍻 salud hermano 🍻

@@flugelhornoldman1362 and just for the record. I went to Band Maid because of a KZfaq recomendation but most because i thought that Kobato was a grown ass Zu-Metal. Man, they look alike 😄

@@flugelhornoldman1362 The Japanese, from a cultural aspect, just work harder than us here in the U.S. They seek perfection in everything they do. They've EARNED their spot as ROCK GREATS! Rock is dying in the U.S. So glad JAPAN has kept it alive! I was speaking to a very high level woman in classical music, who determines whether a classical musician gets into their symphony orchestra or not. She agreed with me about Japanese musicians, but also stated that there is one problem with almost all of the musicians she auditions. They are technically perfect but many lack creativeness. The music education in Japan is very strong and creates tons of awesome musicians. This is my belief. The system is so structured that the musicians who are really creative, probably feel stifled, so they eventually break out of the classical scene and look for something that they can be more creative in, and also just have fun. They seek Rock, Heavy Metal, Jazz, and other genres that interest them. It seems that most of the musicians in these genres started playing classical music at Ages 3-5, so they have such a solid base to build off of, and this is probably why there are so many awesome Japanese, and Asian in general, musicians by the time they are 9 y.o.

Well said.

Saki is an epic guitar player, but have you heard of all the names that have already reached out to Lisa? Omg. She’s set.

Wow, I didn't know about it😶So her name would be Lisa Anbo?

@@muto4055 　Ah...May be !

英語はうまく出来ないので、日本語で書き込みます。ここからはネット記事の転載ですのでご理解下さい。Li-sa-xさんにギターを教えたのは彼女の父親、安保一生さん（元WANDS第３期メンバー）です。当時は　杉本一生　の名前で活動されていたようです。また、彼女の弟もギターのテクニックには定評があり、兄弟によるセッションも公開されているようです。kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y69pls6lp8i3gnk.html

may want to let some people here who might not know what other now big Metal band Hazuk's from 🧐

I think many of us have come to expect Lisa-X and Hazuki to kill everything they do, Rina really hit us from nowhere with this. I'm loving that these non-traditional voices (deeper and more nasality than usual) are blowing up in Japan.

Agreed 💯

Hazuki is pure class! So elegant! Lina/Rina best vocal performance.

Saki is no longer with Mary's Blood.

@@ChrisPage68 Did not know that. Thanks for info.

@@ChrisPage68 They'll held a concert( last concert?) in April :)

@@ChrisPage68 She is until the concert in April.

wait. billy sheehan recorded bass for this?

The drummer of this band is a Canadian named Shane Gaalaas. I'll post his channel. kzfaq.info/love/QPmXXlEvvFps3dXmbFq32g
