I love this guy’s enthusiasm. I’m so used to metal heads gatekeeping everything. This guy listens to everything with so much joy and love for music.

I`m getting on for seventy years old. Brought up with the Stones and the Beatles. Saw this band for the first time a month ago and INSTANTLY fell in love them. Fantastic. Never has any band gripped my feelings as much as these.

Wagakki Band is one of the best Japanese groups out there. They combine traditional instruments and vocal styles with modern rock, metal, jazz, and more. All eight members are master level musicians; and their lead singer, the very elegant Yuko Suzuhana, may be the best female Japanese vocalist I have heard. Wagakki Band is the only other Japanese group that comes anywhere close to BabyMetal in international popularity. The video for their song Senbonzakura has more views than Gimme Chocolate. They are even better live, as their stage shows are musical extravaganzas that rival the very best BabyMetal concerts.

I felt that I should thank you, Mr. Rock N Roll, for introducing me to this band over a year ago. The best band of the 21st century. Homura with Akatsuki no ito is the best way to introduce someone to Wagakki Band.

Your reaction to this was basically the same as mine -- rocking out the whole time, and then when Beni gets up and wails on the shamisen (like you said, basically a Japanese 3-string banjo that you play with a paint scraper, lol) I had to rewind it like a dozen times. She is honestly incredible.

As a huge sucker for folk metal I am SO GLAD to have just discovered this group.

WagakkiBand is how I found Band-Maid back in 2015. You pronounced the name right. And Asa (bass player) is a guy. Beni (shamisen, the three stringed banjo-like instrument) can kill it for sure. She and Yuko (the singer) are why I listen to this band. You should do Senbonzakura live.

"Another plane of existence" is the most accurate description for Wagakki Band I have yet heard. Like, folk-metal isn't a new thing, right? But traditional Japanese music is almost entirely unknown in the West and it just feels other-worldly, especially in this context. They are a unique experience, one that makes my heart pound and gives me goosebumps.

Kinda late but that's literally the best and honest reaction in the history of yt.

Went through the exact same mind-blowing experience listening to them few days ago for the first time. There beyond good, awesome to see someone having the same reaction I felt

have been in Japan for work, many times from 2000 until 2019, and being a big fan of music, I went to see all the possible concerts of Japanese bands of any musical genre. In Japan there is a millennial and very strong musical tradition, especially in percussion, in fact, there are countless schools to learn to play the drums of Japanese tradition, and many schools for Japanese instruments such as shamisen, a 3 or 4 string instrument completely without keys and very difficult to use. Contrary to what happens in the western world, in Japan if you have not done a school, you do not even try to do one thing, this happens for everything, it is part of the Japanese mentality, you cannot cook ramen if you have not had the approval of a master, this generates that in japan the quality of the professionals is incredible, especially in music, if you go to Japan you will be able to listen to incredible bands that play jazz, rock, pop, any type of music, many of these with great influences from the Western music but many others who manage to mix traditional Japanese music with the various genres of Western music, this can create truly incredible atmospheres for the listener. In any case, the average level of Japanese musicians is above any Western musician, simply because of the mentality and pursuit of perfection typical of the Japanese people. So in conclusion, I can tell you that soon you could find Japanese bands that play so that it may seem even absurd, I give you the example of Akane Hirose, she has studied music for years but she has studied the trombone and the violin it seems to me, then she decided to learn the drums and went to study with great masters for only 4 years and now she is the greatest rock drummer of today and maybe she will end up on the list of great all-time. the only real and big problem of Japanese musicians is that the continuous study can drag them into a state of lack of creativity and imagination, forcing them to create music which in the end is only an exhibition of technical ability. There are few Japanese bands that manage to maintain true creativity and a great soul in their music, one of them is certainly Band MaId and Wagakki Band, but I must tell you that if you go to see the concerts in the end you will think that Band-Maid is the best that you can find, most of the Japanese bands are exaggerated in the exposure of the technique and are then boring to listen to in an entire concert, I wanted to write this for some time because I listened to all the concerts of the latest Japanese bands and as I am also a hobby musician I can tell you that in Japan they have a great technique but very little soul, and the only one with the soul is always the incredible Band maid, I have seen, maybe you will think I'm crazy, eleven concerts by the Band-Maid, 9 in Japan and 2 in Europe, and the most incredible ones were in Europe in small theaters where I could be a few centimeters from Saiki and I had to avoid the neck of Kanami's guitar. The instrument you see in this video is the Shamisen, it is very difficult to play and even in Japan few dare, the girl of the Wagakki Band is crazy, it is as if he were jimmy Hedrix multiplied by van Hallen, he does really crazy things at an absurd speed for one instrument with one neck completely without any tone reference. hi, yours is the best channel for music reaction.

@thechikuwa284

No soul? I disagree with you. >the only one with the soul is always the incredible Band maid, You're kidding me. They're an idol band that follows in the footsteps of "Visual-kei band"(ex. LArc-en-Ciel, LUNA SEA, BUCK-TICK, SIAM SHADE, SOFT BALLET, etc). Visual-kei music was so popular in the 90's and 2000's that Band-maid are a bit old-fashioned for Japanese, but to Westerners who don't know Visual-kei, they seem to be a breath of fresh air. That's why 70% of Band-maids' fans live abroad. I like Band-maid too, but If Band-maid with their strong office promotion are regarded as having a soul, then other Japanese bands are fullfull of soul. >the Shamisen, it is very difficult to play and even in Japan few dare umm...Even kids can play the shamisen in Aomori prefectur and Okinawa prefectur.

I had the same reaction bro,and still get emotional when I see that clip.

And yes, the glow sticks called ""Cyalume"" are a MUST during japanese events, often used as specific coreography by the fans, normally during Idol events but not only :D and there are dancers too that use them and they are CRAZY...

Definitely get into this band more they are a national treasure.

If you watch carefully, twice during Akatsuki no Ito, the drummer (Wabasi) on the modern set breaks two (2) drum sticks, tosses them over his shoulder (and the gong) without missing a lick when he picks up his backup drum sticks.

Also you are EXACTLY right, that instrument is in fact a Japanese Banjo. It's called a Shamisen as other comments have mentioned but it works on the same principle as a banjo in that it sounds against a taught skin rather than into hollow wood.

Hello Mr Rock & Roll The banjo that she was playing it's called shamisen is it traditional Japanese guitar lights banjo you can say I played to mine is Okinawa Style shamisen is not that difficult mine mine has only three strings so there's four that's unique some of them have five have a different tones but it's a pretty unique banjo Japanese style

So how epic do you want this to be? Japan: Yes.....

Wagakki Band is fantastic. There's only a few bands that mix Traditional Japanese elements into rock and metal but I imagine they'll be many more that do so with the popularity of this band. Some other Japanese bands to check out: Ningen-Isu - Heartless Scat (2019) Band's been around since the 80s and still making absolute bangers Onmyou-za - 青天の三日月 (Seiten no Mikazuki) (2014) Folk influenced heavy metal, though it's less in the instruments and more in the vocals and imagery Show-Ya - 限界LOVERS (Genkai Lovers) (1989) Japan's first all-female heavy metal band, largely responsible for all boom of all-female bands today, like Band-Maid and Lovebites. X-Japan - Kurenai (1986) check out the 1989 Blue Blood Live. THE Japanese metal band. If you have any interest at all in Japanese metal you have to know this band. Japan's rock and metal scene is insanely deep, and can get pretty weird at times, but it's amazing. Enjoy!

the only two ladys in the group are the vocalist Yuuko and Beni, the shamisen player (the thing that looks like a banjo), Asa the bassist often gets confused by a lady, but he just likes to break some stereotypes. the traditional instruments are the koto (it can be compared to a harp), the shakuhachi (a flute made out of bamboo), the taiko (the giant drumset), and as i mentioned before, the shamisen.

There's also videos of Beni playing the Shamisen from before her joining this group that are of similar format to Fami the Bass girl's videos.

that is beni ninagawa playing the instrument that is called the tsugaru shamisen. she and vocalist yuko suzuhana are both knockouts .been around since 2012 and just amazing.

Glad that you like them, i discovered the band about the time you posted this video. I've never seen this video until now. I was just blown away by this band, these guys are good. Beni can shred a guitar just as well as or maybe better than the greats. The band is better live than in the studio. Here's one of their songs that i think that you might like~ "Hoshizukiyo", Live at Heian Jingu 2017. The first part of that video, Homura, i really enjoy, it's so awesome and dynamic.

3:52 That sounded so freakin EPIC. =)

I might be wrong but the banjo like guitar is Shamisen, the flute is Shakuhachi, the orizontal harp is Koto and the drum set is Taiko.

Just so you know, the Bass player is a guy. The girl on the banjo, thats a Shamisen, a 500 year old, very traditional japanese instrument. She rocks out like a big rocking thing with a built in rockifier. The other odd instruments are the Koto Harp, the Flute, and the Taiko Drums. The best bit is the singer is using a 700 year old poetry style to sing the songs.

Beni is a demon on the shamisen!
