Welcome to Nemophila, and I'm glad you took the chance checking them out! They seem to be right up your alley and they truly only make hit after hit after hit, while getting better with each song as they are a newer band on the scene (yet have been working super hard over the last years pumping out awesome covers and over 18 originals). I highly suggest for a live version Oiran at NAONのYAON2021 as well as the music video for Revive and their latest release Adabana as those are top notch songs (however you can pick any song or cover and you will not be disappointed). I hope you will continue to check them out as they are one of the most fun bands to not only react to but listen to!

Dude, I discovered Nemophila by accident because I’d already been following the drummer’s KZfaq channel for years before Nemophila was born. She’s THAT kind of badass. Then it turned out that every member is THAT kind of special badass as well! Seriously, 5 card carrying members of music royalty have once again found one another and decided to be a band since they liked each other so well.💪🏻🤘🏻

Ya, NEMO are pretty great live too. They sorta became popular during the pandemic and since they couldn't tour, they picked up new fans by releasing a bunch of studio cover songs that cover a huge range of styles and they're all fantastic. This is arguably their heaviest track. A lot of their other songs lean more towards 90s heavy rock. They are super techincal and talented, and have so much fun performing with each other. Maybe next check out their cover of Iron Maiden's Aces High.

Nemophila started right before COVID hit. They just earlier this year started to get in front of crowds and they are just as awesome live. If you want to see them live Oiran live from Naon Yaon 2021 is a great 1st video. There was no crowd allowed but holy shit. Plus Oiran was their first song and still my personal favorite. Their covers are also a blast. Suggest the 2 Maximum the Hormone covers and X-Japans-Kurenai cover.

If it helps go back to the start with their first music video called RAITEI. This band is dynamite and not just a bunch of musicians but a family. They are all elite musicians and started when COVID kicked in so they mainly did studio work. When they managed to go live they exploded. They also put out music for their fans by doing covers every odd Friday on their channel. Their covers are amazing. My favorites are the Japanese bands covers they did. try them all. Their Iron Maiden covers are pretty good too, wait hell they are all good. Favorite band right now and about to start overseas lives at Whiskey A Go Go in the US.

Japanese bands have rekindled my faith in the future of rock and metal. I was so turned off by mumble rap and other stuff popping up on my playlist that I began searching for contemporary music the way I remembered. My search brought me to Japan and I'm happy to say I am enjoying the experience. It started with Wagakki Band, then Baby Metal, BAND-MAID, Lovebites, Aldious. Mary's Blood, and so many more I have fallen in love with, and here we are today getting our faces melted off by Nemophila. Life is good... again!

Yeah, definitely check out their live performances. They have live performances on their channel from the all-female festival NAONのYAON (produced by the godmothers of Japanese rock/metal, Show-Ya) of this, as well as Oiran and Life. (Honestly, their other live video of Life is better imo.) Also, since I mentioned Show-Ya, they've been around since the 80s (contemporaries of X Japan), so you may have heard them, but definitely check out the song, Eye to Eye, off of their album, Showdown, from last year. Nemophila have also done quite a few covers (Given Up, Banana Song [from Despicable Me], Guerrilla Radio, etc.). While their drummer, Tamu Murata, was on maternity leave, they had Miki "Mittan" Tsunoda of Show-Ya on drums for a cover of Show-Ya's "Watashi wa Arashi".

"Why was it so good?" - well, take a insanely talented young singer who just quit her band and search for musicians to play some covers live. At first she ask her "old" school mate Haraguchi-san (ex-Hölderlin) to join her on bass, then ask well-knowned session drummer Murata Tamu to join. Tamu suggest to ask Saki, already a legend amongst female guitarists in Japan (having played in bands like Destrose or Mary's Blood) to play guitar. She agrees, but suggest another guitarist, ex-Disqualia Hazuki who also support guitar prodigy Li-Sa-X. They were supposed to be a jam band only, but quickly realized the magic was there. Three years later, they are THE band to follow besides Band-Maid and Lovebites.

Band-Maid was my introduction to the current world of Japanese rock/metal. Prior to that, I only knew Maximum the Hormone. After Band-Maid, I started listening to a lot of Japanese music and three bands are at the top of my list and have been for awhile - Band-Maid, Lovebites and Nemophila. These three bands rank in the top tier of rock/metal bands that I have heard in my life and I have been listening to rock/metal for over 50 years now. Your next review/reaction to Nemophila should be a live performance and my suggestion would be the song Oiran at the 2021 Naon no Yaon music festival. In the video, the band is introduced by the great Keiko Terada who is every bit a pioneer and metal queen as Doro Pesch. Oiran - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z5-GhJyl0L3Po4U.html Then you really need to dive into Lovebites. A good start would be the song Set The World On Fire. I have always been a huge Iron Maiden and Megadeth fan, thus I am now a huge fan of Lovebites. Set The World On Fire - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b5-qpqtnzq3DZpc.html Enjoy!

@@RosstaFloss Some additional infos: - Nemophila has done two Maximum the Hormone covers- worth of listening as all their covers, they've done a lot (western bands like Iron Maiden, ACDC etc, and japanese bands like Show Ya, Princess Princess, MUCC etc.pp); if you want to get an impression of the great variability of Nemophila's sounds and tunes, check out their older stuff (own songs) from the first half of 2020, too! They even recorded a beautiful ballad, a real gem ("Life"). - Hanabie started as a Maximum the Hormone cover band while attending High School; - in addition to Maximum the Hormone there is another hugely influential veteran band: Dir en grey; soundwise completely different to MtH, but very heavy, too; their musical styles have changed a lot over the times, they started as sort of a heavy (hardcore) visual kei punk band (???), emancipated themselves from the visual kei thing and developed their very distinctive theatrical, dramatical musical style, with shows resembling modern art performances. Like MtH they began in the 1990s, and so their repertoire is huge, as well as the massive loads of excellent audiovisual content you can find on YT. A good start is the very popular and wierding out song "Vinushka" which can be found in many different versions in YT. I'd suggest to take the following version, here you have some nice shots of the audience, too: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/br1gm5WqzdqaeXU.html.
