This song is their favorite song to play at their live shows. They play this song at every concert. BAND MAID is very special. Their live show is better than their albums. And the energy they bring to their live shows bring so much genuine happiness to the audience. For some, their live show is a life changing experience. They were in the US in 2019. I saw them in NYC. Heavier songs: "Rinne", "Dice", "secret My lips", "Moratorium"

Band Maid can be described in 3 words...BEST band EVER!!!🤘🤟🤘

Get ready to be blown away by Blooming, Rinne, Non-Fiction Days, Onset, and maaaaaaaany more.

They are so “glad that Master & Princess have enjoyed today’s service” 🤘🎸💃😎

So far you've heard two of their more "poppy' Rock songs, wait till you try "Rinne" or "Domination." They have this unique sound, and pull bits from many different genres. Alternative pop like vocals and choruses, instrumentally an eclectic mix from metal/blues/punk/jazz/funk etc, but always with that hard rock base! So unique, and they sure can put the 'stank' on their instruments.

The members of Maid-Band are all to one degree or another professionally trained/educated. How they work, Kanami (lead guitar) composes the music, sending (via internet) it to Akane (drums) and MISA (bass) for bass and drums. Miku.(vocals, rhythm guitar, band founder) writes the lyrics. Then to the studio where all of them complete the song. Saiki (vocals) is the one who calls "we're done". Likely because the others would work on a song forever. On the last album apparently Miku and Saiki arranged the order of the songs. Recap, they write arrange and produce their own songs. Of course as you just heard they are highly talented and skilled performers, no electronic tricks needed. Kanami composes on the piano that she has played since she was 6 yo. She taught Miku how to play the guitar. If you think you play a musical instrument well, there is a Japanese lady who is better than you!! (stolen)

Freedom is their fun song when they play live. Like others said...you have seen nothing yet.

The live version of “Play” has plenty of bass showcase for them. And I consider it heavier.

For heaver songs *DICE* and *輪廻 ( RINNE )* Music Videos *DICE* has a sweet MISA, MISA, MISA intro. *輪廻 ( RINNE )* if you want your face melt off.... In a good way.

Great job guys! If you want something a little harder try-dice, Domination, Rinne or Moratorium

If you want heavier stuff, try "Rinne/Reincarnation", "Real Existence", "Domination", "Moratorium", "Dice", "Don't You Tell Me"

Domination live from the same show....🔥

When BAND-MAID plays this song it’s one they have the most fun with as you can see by all the smiles but please check out more videos live and MV for harder edge

For heavier songs from Band-Maid Rinne (mv) is the heaviest song they have. Domination (live) Dice (mv) Real Existence (live) Secret My Lips (mv) Order (mv)

Dice, Rinne, Domination, Moratorium, Real Existence, Blooming. :) Check out those songs.

worlds _greatest_ band. definitely check out their onset live performance. cheers! 🕊

Originally, Kanami played Addictone guitars but once she was noticed, she’s been PRS all the way! Kanami- PRS / Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier + 8 or 9 different pedals Miku- Zemaitis Custom / EVH( EDDIE VAN HALEN ) stack + various pedals MISA- Black Cloud custom 5 string bass / Orange stack Akane- Drum Kit: Tama Star Bubinga, Snare Drum: Ludwig, Cymbals: Zildjian (left to right) Oh by the way- JIMMY PAGE OF (LED ZEPPELIN) loves BAND-MAID, enough said....

Recommend "Lovebites - When Destinies Align (4k video)". These ladies will shred every vegetable you have in your house, then they melt your face off. 😜🤘

actually Freedom is also one of their early song but its their favourite song to play live so theres always a new version

You’re just getting started with BAND-MAID. Some of their stuff will melt your face.

Domination live is huge performance from all the girls.

Their wearing maid outfits while playing hard rock is deliberate on their part. Miku(rhythm guitarist and founder of band-Maid) used to work at a maid cafe and thought it would be cool to have a band playing in maid outfits. It is a contrast they call "The Gap". Glad you enjoy Band-Maid. But, as they say, you ain't seen nuthin yet. Band-Maid: Stay strong and Play long! A Band-maidiac. God bless. Liked and subbed btw. keep up the good work.

Freedom is one of my favorite deep cuts. Excellent song. If you have not seen onset, Definitely watch it. They will blow your mind. And I guarantee you will understand every word in it.

Incredible songs, amazing musicianship, charismaticly performed by beautiful women. Case closed !

The rock out with fun scale was already at max but Akane (Drums) broke it. They love what they do so much. Their joy and happiness is contagious and brings a smile to your face. The energy, liveliness, the fun they have, absolutely exceptional. This is an older song, only one year after Thrill, and relatively simple for BAND-MAID standards.The drum solo and the transition to the following guitar solo are added to this live version. BAND-MAID is the best thing that can happen to a fan of rock music. Their songs are so refreshing and full of energy, melodic, catchy, mood-lifting, with so much to discover if you listen closely. Composition, arrangement and musicianship are always stellar. Rock On!

There are other songs where bass is focused more. Recommendations? That’s a hard one because they’re all good but “blooming”MV and “moratorium” live maybe your cup of tea. Or “ play” live starts out with bass solo and it’s a must watch.

Miku, the Rythme guitar is the girl who put the band together and also writes most of the lyrics, she also plays a decent guitar & was taught by Kaname the lead guitar

The second crowd less concert, Zepp Haneda, will be given on the 16th of August. This is being done to replace the five cancelled Zepp shows so there will be three more over the next few months. Go to the Tokyo homepage for details. The first show they did was 11 songs and it cost $14 US or $9 US if you are a member of the fan club. Join the fanclub. It costs nothing to do so. Sacramento loves Band-Maid and enjoy the show.

PLAY (live) you will not be disappointed.

glad you guys 'stepped=up' to BAND-MAID. True talent there, yes ?

It's called the GAP cute girls a d hard rock check moratorium (live)

Band Maid, the tightest band in the world and the happiest. Brilliant musicians - they deserve world domination.

You guys really need to check out "Blooming" and "Onset" from Band-maid! Enjoy!!!!

The bassist is MISA. And she is actually probably the most loved member of the band by the fans. She’s really shy though.

MIKU IS LIFE, KANAMI IS LIFE, BAND MAID IS LIFE !

Check out onset live!

i've always loved the uniforms. to me they define band maid. it's their look. and when you know the story behind it it's even better. and they update frequently to keep it fresh.NOT a gimmick. never really has been.if you want heavier react to the mv for the song 'dice'. in their top 3 songs and just plain kickass. here is the link:kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNZxjNGHr76dc40.html

Tip of the iceberg so much more

Oh, it's no over yet. Try DICE and RINNE/Reincarnation (live). Both are the heaviest of their songs. You should try ONSET (live) and Domination (live) if you wanna see Kobato Miku (rythim guitar) doing solo so you could see that she really do the hell trainning to be that good. Lol. Good reaction. Love it~

Oh my jeebus! What the hell did I just see? My brain went away for a bit there in the middle...like it couldn't reconcile what it saw and what it heard. That drummer! The guitars! Im....what? What?! What!!!!

A little late with this reaction but we had a lot of fun checking it out together! Thank you all so much for the suggestions. My latest guitar video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ot2SesV8qqi0d2w.html more coming soon! patreon.com/OutLoudStudios

well .. I told you so :D Try either Onset (live 2018) for a pure instrumental, or "Domination" from the same show as "Freedom".

Misa can sing first time seeing her sing

I recommend the another all-female japanese POWER METAL band. "LOVEBITES" LOVEBITES / When Destinies Align

Haven't seen you guys in a while. Hope you'll be doing more Band Maid. You guys are great together ☺️. Be well !

Haven't seen you guys in ages. Always loved your Band-Maid reactions. Obviously husband and wife. But great chemistry on here as well. Hope to see you guys back sometime in the near future with the ladies of Band Maid. Stay safe and be well always !

As you will hear from BandMaid fans there are so many of their songs that rock harder. You want hard? I would recommend the Ukrainian Metal band Jinjer. Your introduction to this band has to start with the song "Pisces" live session simply because we all want to see your reaction to Tatiana their lead singer. After your initiation then try "Perennial" live at the Wacken Outdoor Festival in Germany and then "Teacher,Teacher". after that you are on your own because this band will satisfy your addiction to hard.

I'd suggest the following Band Maid songs: Take Me Higher, Moratorium, Play & Domination (all live versions) also Bubble & Blooming (music videos)

They are so fun to watch !

The latest 'Play' live from Feb.14, 2020 comes with Misa-Miku-Kanami's solo battle!

Thrill was my first shoe in the Band-Maid rabbit hole too. If you want to see something special from MISA, there is a show they did in Paris back in June 2019 that her and Kanami "talk" for a bit as an intro to their song 'Clang'. It's a fan cam video, but VERY COOL must see. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aJ95q66Zq6y3p3U.html

As others have said, this is on the lighter side. Rinne, Dice, Domination, Blooming, Moratorium, Play, Real Existence. Thrill and this song were written for them. They write much more complicated music for themselves.

EVERYONE .. .BTW for all those into BANDMAID ...On JULY 23, 2020 (NEXT WEEK) BANDMAID is having a ONLINE CONCERT at 4pm JST (Japan Time) which is 3am EST here (use an converter online for your time). But that's ok you can watch it at a later time (like within 24 to 48 hours.) Just go to their website and join for free and then go from there by following the links. For less than 20 bucks you can see these girls live. If you like them, Support them! They don't make anything from youtube. They haven't been able do much since this Coronavirus Apocalypse. So support these super talented ladies who are putting a smile on your face by making awesome music!! If you Don't Know...Now you Know..Knowing is Half the Battle!! Gooo Joe!! Spread the Word!

Live version of their song Domination is really excellent too.

Welcome to BAND-MAID

These two people are exactly "Beauty and the Beast," and they have a fun-filled reaction! I feel really good watching these two people.

Another great reaction! Arguably, the heaviest song they've written is "Rinne (Reincarnation)". It's confusing to find because the title is written in Kanji, so I'll leave the link below. Band Maid - "Rinne (Reincarnation"): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebdpl8V2u82-k3U.html

MISA!!!!! MISA!!!!!! MISA!!!!!!! Bad Ass Bass Assassin. Misa get her due in other songs. Thrill was 2013. This song is 2020 and all 5 ladies just shine and the drummer Akane just goes OFF!!!! Band-Maid videos are much better because you can see how much fun they have playing and with each other. Look at the smiles on their faces. you need to react to Play, Onset, Don't You Tell Me, Puzzle, Real Existence", "Domination", "Moratorium", "Dice"

If you're looking for harder stuff check out Blooming or Rinne (MV versions). Nice comments! Looking forward to learning how your opinion evolves.

BTW Band-Maid fans, remember, there's online since last May: Band-Maid: Live at Line Cube Shibuya 2020-02-14* www.bilibili.com/video/BV1LK411W7QQ Backstage and band members comments: www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Sp4y1Q7Bz?p=3 TRACKLIST: 01 - Rinne 02 - Blooming 03 - Screaming 04 - Dilemma 05 - Glory 06 - Freedom 07 - Choose me 08 - Page 09 - Mirage 10 - Catharsis 11 - Bubble 12 - The Dragon Cries 13 - I can't live without you (Miku's showtime/Saiki's rest) 14 - Time 15 - Wonderland 16 - Alone 17 - Dice 18 - Don't you tell me 19 - Play 20 - Domination 21 - Endless Story *Thanks to those people who posted it.

Kimmy is afox! Great reviews as always!

Hi from the UK something for you to check out the band is called nightwish it's a symphonic metal band from Finland with a Dutch singer floor Jansen (the valkyrie) This band has a massive following in Europe and the internet Nightwish ghost love score wacken open air concert 2013 Nightwish romanticide wacken open air concert 2013 Nightwish ghost river wacken open air concert 2013 (different song from ghost love score) Nightwish is a very deep rabbit hole to explore lol Prepare for the nightwish army to arive at the door lol Also check out this band from new Zealand Alien weaponry, ki tangata

Rinne, from their last album, is probably their heaviest song, but the other songs people are recommending like Moratorium and Dice are also great. Not sure if their is a live version for Rinne, but you have the MV in their channel. And although this live version is new, the song is not. You have only listen to two of their oldest stuff, before Kanami, the lead guitar, started composing their songs.

As much as i like band maid, i love another Japanese metal band Lovebites, in my opinion they are so much better than many bands out there today. They have two of the baddest lead guitarist in the world. I truly and strongly recommend that you check them out, any song of your choice will be fine because they are all powerful. Be Prepared to be blown away as everyone who has seen them. Btw if you want to check out band maid live i would pick the song "Play"

you can watch live performance by takayoshi Omura in rondo of nightmare it is definitely worth to check

Nice reaction. This song it's just about fun, the band always play it because it's their moment to cheer people, it's a really energetic tune. For me, this reminds the style of bands like Grandfunk Railroad, it has a very rock n roll feel with pop infusion. But this band tend to incorporate a lot of elements on their music. Although I think their music is primarly Hard Rock, they have that Pop thing on their melodies, but they do incorporate Metal, Punk, Funk and Blues elements into their music, so they have a wide range of songs, some are heavier, another more energetic, another ones more introspective and soft, etc. I think BAND-MAID belongs more on the side of bands like Van Halen, Pearl Jam, King's X or Guns N Roses. And they give a lot of room for bass solos in a lot of songs. Their bassist, MISA, is amazing. If you like more heavier songs from them, I suggest you the following ones: -Moratorium kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n-CebNibm6inh4k.html -Rinne (Reincarnation) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebdpl8V2u82-k3U.html -DICE (not really heavy, but it's a really good hard rock song). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNZxjNGHr76dc40.html Hope you can react to one of those songs. There're more, but I don't want to overwhelm you with too much links. Cheers dude!

Domination / Choose me from the same concert !

"Rinne- (Reincarnation)" - Studio - you'll like this very agressive and somewhat heavy chorus I LOVE this one.. The only song they do where the studio video is better than the live release. "Don't You Tell Me" - Live - Bad ass battle with bass and lead guitar around the middle with Akane backing up both on drums smooth as hell "Domination" - Live "Moratorium" - Live "Play" - Live "Onset" - Live - Instrumental pretty aggressive great solos, I can listen to this one 10 times in a row.. Great jam These are all sick and most of Band Maid's best sounding songs are their live performances.

1:36 (Hiragana)"かかってこいや!!!" (Romaji)"Kakattekoiya!!!" (English)"Bring it on!!!"

Hey guys! Here are the links (not YT!!!) of these whole awesome concerts, because some songs has been taken down. Then you can react to any song you want or haven't done yet!

Band Maid Rinne MV. Misa, the bassist gets more air time than the drummer. This was the first she was holding the fort

If you ask, in the beginning Saiki says, "Are you ready for more, Shibuya? Want more? Bring it on!" Stirring up the audience in a rather manly way.

You can find more live video of Band Maid by search with keywords below. BAND-MAID Zepp Tokyo 2018 BAND-MAID LINE Shibuya Cube I like their song "Play." Also, their official KZfaq Channel released some Live footage from their Blu-ray, too. You can watch Domination, Onset, and Choose Me on their channel. kzfaq.infofeatured

*DEC.13, 2020 // BAND-MAID LIVE ONLINE OKYU-JI (NEW ALBUM)*

RINNE !!!! (Reincarnation) Official MV !!!!!

Domination, Dice and Play will give you the heavier sound. But you are right, this is more rock anthem sound than some of their other songs.

Domination live

I´d suggest "the non-fiction days" as on of their heaviest songs. And also my favorite one.

Something hard to catch but watch closely. Kanami (Guitar) and Misa (bass) switched sides so neither is near their effects peddles. But if you watch Kanami, she keeps going back to Misa's effects peddles and adjusting them almost as if it's planned. Yes, this is not one of their harder songs. You need to check out "The Dragon Cries", "Play", "Moratorium", and/or "Real Existence" to get a better indication of their hard side.

Hey OLS, Hope all is well. Band-Maid needs some cool reactions and this would be a great place to restart your reactions. Their newest MV for the instrumental FROM NOW ON was recently uploaded (if you don't mind being smacked in the head). They've put out about 20 new songs since this reaction.

Your confusion is the "Gap", between the visuals and the audio, it's part of the band theme. If you want more bass you can check out "Domination" live also on their official channel. MISA gets a nice solo, but sdo does everyone else :)

If you want heavy and more Misa on bass, probably best going for DICE.

Heavier: Domination(live), Dice, Blooming, Onset (live), Rinne Other highlights: Don't you tell me, Bubble, Rock in me (no music video for this one but it's Miku's vocals and it's REALLY good), Real existence. If you like Band Maid you should also check out Unleash the Archers (Abyss or Awakening), Lovebites, Fern Planet and Motion device (Thick Skin) And Oh my... You haven't gone down the Nightwish Rabbit hole... Ghost Love Score is a must for any metalhead react channel.

Fun fact their bassist likes drinking during concerts haha

Akane!!!❤️. Akane’s snare!!!❤️. 🤡

Since you mention that you like heavier arrangements, check out Take Me Higher (Live): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o9mJjJh9tcnDqKs.html before it disappears! ;-) It's from the Studio Coast 2017 show, I believe, and the mix is fabulous. You can really hear the lead guitar in the right channel and the rhythm guitar in the left. All the instruments are clear! \m/ BAND-MAID is: Miku Kobato - band founder, principal lyricist, rhythm guitar, vocals, "The Little Pigeon" Kanami Tono - lead guitar, backing vocals, principal music composer, Miku's Sensei, prefers "Kanamincho" or "Mincho" Akane Hirose - drums, backing vocals, band leader, "The Gorilla" MISA MISA MISA - bass guitar, "The Barefoot Assassin" Saiki Atsumi - lead vocals, "The Queen"

Band-Maid - Rinne is considered as heavy :3 Listen to it, and you got a new subscriber ;)

Do you want heavier, then react to RINNE, REAL EXISTENCE, ORDER, ALONE, MORATORIUM

Dice and Rinne!!

Think of the rock genre as a sphere....... these ladies do that And beyond. Freedom is a "band" favorite (and a crowd favorite) as in it is a staple of their show, but it does not define them, as such. Delve deeper (over 80+ songs) and I assure you, youwill become a fan. For something heavier- Rinne(Reincarnation), Dice. Fast- Blooming. 70's groove- The Dragon Cries. Slower - Daydreaming. A chugger - Choose Me...... Or my favorite - Bubble. And this is only scratching the surface. Check out their backstory and then you'll understand why these ladies deserve your attention. All suggestions are on their KZfaq page.

Mincho！😍

LOL, I've seen them in person twice. Absolutely awesome performances. The first video I saw was "Start Over." Much lighter than most of their stuff, but as a drummer you can instantly tell the drummer was for real from the very first note. It built up nicely and led me to Thrill. Blown away that they were rocking it. THEN I clicked on "Real Existence." That was it. From that point on I was a full on Band-Maid Fanatic. The drum progression just blew me away. She just never sits still. Most drummers would have just laid it down and only changed when it went from verse to chorus and the solo would have been the same as chorus. NOT Akane! OMG NO! No, she had to play at least 3 different bits for each section. The guitar solo gets the same treatment. The thing is, these aren't just some garage band kids who came up with a few good riffs with a guy that can belt it out real good. No, these girls are actual musicians that have been playing various instruments since they were small children and went to school to learn their craft. Every song they do is good, if not amazing. Recommendations? Just start clicking. There are no bad songs, but plenty of surprises. They pack a lot into each and every song. Most bands would take the ideas and rifs they put into a single song and make at least 3 out of each. But if you really want somewhere to start, you can't go wrong with the live version of "Domination." Saiki is ON FIRE with that one.

Check the 'Dice' MV.

check out the band Lovebites - When Destinies Align, all female J-metal band, heavily inspired by Iron Maiden, Judas Priest etc

If you want to see the Misa Misa Misa get attention react to PLAY live.

They have a lot of heavier songs. Their live of Domination (Feb 14, 2020 live) is what you need to watch if you want to see them show off a bit for each musicians.

Next try Bando-Maid - Rinne MV the Onset (Live) /,,/

kimmy kim is back...

Oh man...like others said, you haven’t seen much of them yet. Try Dice, Rinne, Domination, Moratorium & Real-Existance if you want something heavier especially the drums part.

If you like heavy and Japanese try: Unlucky Morpheus - Black Pentagram Lovebites - Shadowmaker
