Love when she goes full brutal and roars "lemme see you smile!" So... incongruous So... fluffy hell So Nemophila!

Love when Saki comes in with that first chord!

Mayu going full brutal is just amazing to behold! Her ability to just swap back and forth with the clean and harsh is incredible. Also, they are always perfectly dressed too

One of the best things about reactors discovering these incredible Japanese bands is re-living when when we disciovered them the 1st time.. Trust me you at the tip of the iceberg still with Nemophila & Lovebites.. So much more to experience. FYI: Hanabie & Band-Maid are still waiting for you as well.

This is an amazing band. Thank you 🤘

They are just Magical band 🔥🤘💥❤️ I’m running out superlatives when talking about these amazing ladies. I just love them and their music. This video was taken from their livestream in January. Tamu was sick in this gig.

Thanks for reacting. Album track on a live footage

GR8 reaction!!!! I Love seeing peoples minds blown the more they see and hear from Nemophila the more their brains explode 🤯 💥!!!! What I absolutely LOVE ❤️ about Nemophila is that you CAN'T pigeon hole them or put them in a box!!!! Just about the time you "think" you have them figured out, they hit you with something out of left field!!!! Mayu is an incredible vocalist. The dual 🎸 guitars 🎸 from Saki and Hazuki is just amazing!!!! Haraguchi San on bass, I just absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE her!!! And of course, the ONE AND ONLY...... TAMU on drums 🥁!!!!! You were wondering how they did the "pause/cut outs" during that one part 🤔 they are using a noise gate thru the soundboard. Of course, for it sound good, all the instrumentalists have to be super tight and in sync with their pauses. Otherwise, it will sound like a train wreck!!! Just FYI, Nemophila is a 5 petal blue alpine flower from which the band got its name!!!! Nemophila fans are called "PETALHEADs." I believe you have become a "PETALHEAD!!!" Or am I wrong 🤔? Again, GR8 reaction, and I just sub😢!!!

Love your reactions to Nemophila. I'm a huge fan. I'm shocked how many reactors don't recognize Tamu's shirt as the Rolling Stones. I guess it's not as iconic as I thought, or I'm just old, LOL.

Happy to see you react to another Nemophila song. They know how to keep you guessing! Always expect the unexpected from them.

Nemophila the most diverse an versatile band 🤘❤️❤️🔥🔥 Mayu can sing any style ❤ please react to more Nemophila , Zen , Oiran, Odessey

NICE!!! Pretty similar to my reaction on first hearing. They have a good number of brilliant songs, especially considering a reasonably small discography so far. But this one just kicks so hard. I don't think it's actually live audio. Pretty sure it's studio with footage. Most of their lives are actually live, and still sound great. But I don't think it would be possible to do the, audio chopping is all I can think to call it, live. Mayu's voice sounds 100% this good live though, cleans and uncleans. They are all fun to watch live as well, but Haraguchi San, the bassist, in a lot of the lives is SO fun to watch. She is sometimes grinning ear to ear and you can see how ridiculously happy she is sometimes when Mayu rips into the uncleans. A quick re-suggestion, though I expect they are on your long long list already, is the band Hanabie. Each new reaction to Nemophila makes me suspect you are going to have a lot of fun with Hanabie.

You are correct...neh-mo-fee-la :) Such a great song. Hazuki hit gold with this one and Mayu's vocals are amazing!

I started following during Covid and I fell in love!

BTW, this is studio audio over the live footage. I have the original stream saved and I actually prefer the live audio with all its rough edges and imperfections.

🤘😃🤘

you still havent seen Zen (live) and Odyssey as two most extremely different songs

🔥🔥🔥 Please check out《oiran》live（recent one) next!🤘🏻🌸🤘🏻

You are right, this is dance music. The theme is an episode of Japanese mythology that we all Japanese know. Nemophila members play ancient maidens who dedicated dance and music to our sun goddess Amaterasu 天照大御神 supreme god of Japan.

Saki, the guitarist, has left the group. Too much of a shock. Breaking news from Japan

🤘🇺🇦❤️🌸

6:15 Whether in a live production or in the studio recording, "noise gate" is the answer - and good timing of the musicians. Explanation of an audio engineer: >>Noise gate means, that low recorded noise (below a defined threshold) is turned into _digital silence_ . In the sound engineering software, you can set a certain minimum level for a recorded sound, e.g. for a microphone. If noise below that level/threshold is produced (e.g. ambience), the noise gate "closes", and that minimum sound is turned into _digital silence_ . If you have _no_ "noise gate" activated in the software, and you would record e.g. a guitar, and all of a sudden the guitar would be stopped, there would be some _ambience_ left. That ambience is probably at about 25-30 dB. But when you set the _threshold_ in the sound engineering software at those 25-30 dB, there is going to be _digital silence_ in the second you reach that level (from "above") in the music production, instead of ambience. Like here, in this song. - In a _live_ show, that effect will probably not be as clean as in a studio production, but it will still be impressive.

Im glad you've become a fan of this band. Been there for years! Continue to explore and be amazed.....every time! But.....the start then stop thing is not done live, its editing. Not to take anything away from this absolutely incredible band. Right now.......they stand as my 2nd fave band. Because Lovebites will remain number 1 as long as they exist. Nice video. Subscribed.

Awesome reaction!!! If you love this song, please react to my other fave Nemophila songs: DISSENSION- official music video REVIVE- offciial music video YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!! ALL BANGERS!!!

🤘🌸🔥🤘🌸🔥🤘🌸🔥

Official track, so ,post production+++++++ :) Studio sound with live video...

I predicted you would lose your mind over this one!

If you like the sudden stops and start, check Sokoninaru, their song is like 10songs in one song. I recommend Gou ni moyu, Lament moment and Saitei

That video shows live footage but the audio is taken from the studio recording. My reaction was exactly like yours when those quick, short silences started bombarding my ears like a machine gun. I'm very curious to see how they pull that off while playing live. Loved the reaction!! 🤟🏻🤟🏻

Tienes que ver el Medley que hay de un fan que dura unos 14 minutos, es instrumental, para dar descanso a Mayu que hacia pocos meses daba a luz. Ahí verás lo increíblemente buenas y talentosas que son. Es de la gira Norteamericana que hicieron en marzo de 2023

I see people already explained but yeah, this is just a music video for a studio recording using footage of a live performance. Japanese bands often put "Live MV" (as in Music Video) in the title so you know it's not an actual live clip, but they're not always consistent unfortunately! The title's definitely misleading here, they have a few like that But they also have lots of actual live videos that are ridiculously good, I think you'll know it's live when you hear it! It's also pretty common for Japanese bands to use backing tracks live to fill out a few layers, so you might notice that with occasional backing vocals and stuff. If you want a couple of actually live ones to try, Zen is from a show they put out a lot of videos from, and Now I Here is a different side to them you might appreciate!

Even though the footage is from a real live performance, I'm pretty sure the song is the studio version. You said it yourself, the sound is too big, but don't worry, live depending on the song, they sound very similar or even better than in the studio.😉

Japanese ladies Bands shows to the Western Bands dude how Bands should play live and how to sing high pitch growl and low pitch growl..... (high pitch growl vocal NEMOPHILA, low pitch growl vocal HANABIE) 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 Check out HANABIE songs We Love Sweets, Be The GAL, Pardon Me, OTAKU, NEET GAME.....

Yes, Nemophila is a baby blue eyes or a five spots and your first try is the correct accent Ama-Terasu. Come to think of it. The correct spelling is Ama-Terasu with an U at the end in the standard Japanese alphabet system but actually pronounce as Ama-Teras without the last U, and I like that "Ama té Ras" sounds like Spanish.

Revive next, please! Then Hanabie - We Love Sweets Babymetal - Catch Me If You Can Live with intro🙏🤘👍

Live video; studio audio from their latest album, EVOLVE. You might have been prepared for this if you had seen the 2021 video of their cover of DON’T SAY LAZY (K-ON) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e9eDirJ92LnOZ4U.html Try ODYSSEY next.

Although this is titled as an official Live video, I'm pretty sure that only the video portion is live. The audio sounds pretty identical to the album version, and if the audio were truly live, you would hear the sounds of applause after that final chorus, but it is just silent.

"they are probably really loud"... sister you have no idea. I've seen them live, and except for being on the line at a top fuel dragstrip it was the single loudest *thing* - nevermind loudest concert - I've ever experienced.

#HOGLOVE4ALL #AMIEROCKS

That gating at 6:08 of the sound from all of the sources must either be something programmed to the PA electronics or so is it a post production. If it is not a post production then it must be totally wild to be there hearing it IRL.

they ARE fire and I still struggle with how in the world that sound comes out of these adorable little creatures. A behind the scene video from the end of one of their tours. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bZuJndJ9l9XQdIU.html

Nice reaction! Nemophila is awesome and can slay in multiple genres. If you are in Portland you might want to check out HANABIE who will be at the Crystal Ballroom on May 30th. They are a super fun band and have defined their own genre called Harajuka-core. Hard to explain but you will get it if you check out their latest titled, Otaku Lovely Densetsu. Thanks.

Do Zen - Live if you want more 'adrenaline excitement' .. pinky promise its pretty damn wild

As for the name of the fan base, I don't think there is really a consensus yet. Some people call us the Petals (which I HATE - great nickname for the band, terrible nickname for the fan base). Others call us Nemophiliacs. Personally, I prefer Petallions (rhymes with battalions or metallions).

Here is another Metal band that the musicians are incredible there are another all-female band out of Japan the musicians are phenomenal the singer's voice is excellent also I just do not believe it fits musicality of the band the band crushes it. I'll pick a song for you and get back to you on that

Loud?? You have no f-ing idea... I thought the Budokan was going to collapse when they were rehearsing while I was outside waiting to get in last month and the actual show was even louder lol. Now try Life, Now I here or Odyssey to see another side of them you'll understand why Mayu is my absolute favorite singer, no one can convey emotions like she does imo

Hey there,I just found your site, nice to meet you. I enkoyed your reaction to one of my Favorite Jrock bamds Nemophila you lobed her screams which is what got me hooked on her and them.please watch "Zen" 🔥X 10! you will NOT be disappointed,I Promise would like to

I believe the title is Spanish. Google translates it as "Love, you laugh"

Terrific song, glad you enjoyed it! As others may have said, this is live footage with studio audio over it. Edit - I typed before finishing your commentary at the tail end of the song No worries though, they definitely bring it live! There’s a great one of the song “Revive” at House of Blues in California that I’m sure you’ll dig, and there’s always the “Oiran” official live video! And you haven’t even found their covers yet. Good luck!
