A Banshee?! Reaction to NEMOPHILA 'AMA-TE-RAS' Live

We're still not quite sure how to describe what happens to the singer's voice in this one, but it was very unique. It's our first time listening to NEMOPHILA, and this is "AMA-TE-RAS" Official Live Video. This was recommended to us on a Band-Maid reaction.

Nemophila is like a box of chocolates, you never know what flavor you're going to get.
Three albums and each one is different. Absolutely wonderful all three

I never enjoyed 'screaming' until I heard Mayu and Nemophila. Now it has grown on me and I have a whole new appreciation for the technique and the effect it brings.

Nemophila is my new favorite!

"Their liveversions are all pure magic..Oiran, Revive, Life, Zen, Raitei etc.."...100% agree!

Also, all their covers are great...check out that playlist on their channel as well!

“What genre are they？”
I think that genre is called “nemophila” lol😂
They are all excellent musicians. And nemophila is a very unique and diverse band, with various genres of music appearing in their catalog. I recommend《oiran》live(recent one) or《rise》live as the next!🤘🏻🌸🤘🏻

[shaunwithans]

I feel mayu's clean and harsh vocals are very unique and draws you even deeper into how awesome they are individually and as a group. Great reaction!

Nemophila is *extremely versatile* in terms of music genres. But not only do they change from a Rock song to a Punk Metal song quickly, but they change between genres *in a song* . Like here: Disco beats, Punk Metal, Power Metal. _In the same song._ Thy don't care, they just play what they like - and they _kill it_ . _Always._ An incredible band, outstanding, exeptional. As an aged Metalhead, I needed a whole album to trust them. ("Seize the fate", 2022.) Then I bought their first 2 ones, too ("Oiran"/2021 and "Revive"/2022), and recently their current one ("Evolve"). And what can I say: *only masterpieces* . Too good to be true. Surreal. *Four consecutive studio albums full of masterpieces.* What a rare experience! Meanwhile, I trust them blind. "Nemophila" means excellence. And: They belong to *The New Standard Of Happy Metal* . "Thank you, ladies, I owe you a lot." 🐺💮DE

Thank you for the wonderful Reaction!! Vocalist MAYU also has a ballad that takes advantage of her wonderful husky voice. Try the song Odyssey. We are sure you will be satisfied. Please continue to try Nemophila🙏

Powerhouse Nemophila will continue the shock and awe.. They don't adhere to any genre, and will change up on every other song.. Mayu is an amazing vocalist.. And just wait till you see those twin guitarists Hazuki and Saki cut loose on those 7 string guitars... Tamu the drummer is in a class by herself. And Haraguchi-san can put down bass grooves with the best of the best !.. Thank you for your reaction..please continue..

Hi Coach, Mrs Coach was indeed right, Nemophila is unique, in that it is one of the very few metal bands in Japan that specialize in the metalcore/groove/grunge metal genre, not to mention it is an all female group.

The lead vocalist, Mayu, is known for being able to switch effortlessly between her singing voice and growlling, and killing it! Apart from its own work, the band has also covered a lot of famous songs from other Western rock bands in their studio live Youtube videos. Hope u enjoy!

[kevinbowland]

I've seen them live twice in Southern Cal. They are fire. Extremely talented musicians. With Lovebites, Nemophila and Band-Naid they all have that touch of the old school metal/rock vibe, especially Lovebites, which attracts an older audience overall. All 3 groups are incredible and have rejuvenated metal and rock after decades of mediocre music.

[badgirlmelreacts]

Yes omg thankyou nemophila is amazing thankyou coach

[jawosammadennhier]

In my opinion, the best way to experience Nemophila is to read their lyrics first (online), and then to *free your mind*, let any thinking of "genres" go, and *expect nothing* . Just let them come and play. Then the *intensity* of whetever-they-might-play will *hit* and embrace you. Nemophila are _always_ intense. Independ from the volume of their sound system. Their song "Life" is not loud, but emotionally _intense_, and in terms of lyrics. And their song "Revive" is one of their intense songs to get you back to life, in case you experience a down: "Break the ceiling, let's kick you up a notch!" 😁 Watching Nemophila's music videos is _never_ a waste of time. Music without regrets. 😊

Nemophila is very diverse. They appear to appreciate the advertising they get from reactors and don’t block. I’ve got to run, but may add a little later.

[Vitericus]

Top Top band and Hazuki and Saki didn't even let loose with their usual twin lead shred in this one! Gotta check out "Adabana" 'Rise" and the newer live version of "Oiran"

[letsgetdangerous]

I would say they are mostly metal but from song to song they could be both one of the heaviest and and one of the lightest of the bands you mentioned. React to Odyssey to see that swing in style.

[garykeeling]

Nemophila tends a little more toward the nu-metal and metalcore side than a lot of the Japanese female bands (those are more the territory of Japan's male bands), but they also play some thrash, some pop metal, and even some hard rock, not to mention numerous covers of mostly 80s and 90s and some newer bands, including AC/DC, KISS, Motley Crue, Skid Row, Iron Maiden, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Pink, Bon Jovi, Journey, Maximum the Hormone, and BABYMETAL. This is one of the rare Nemophila songs that has a breakdown instead of guitar solos. But when they do play guitar leads, they have a two-guitar tandem in Saki (white tee shirt) and Hazuku (darker clothing) that is almost as epic a pair as Midori and Miyako from Lovebites! And since you liked Nemophila, I think you might like another of the more unique and crazy (in the funnest way possible) Japanese female band called Hanabie (pronounced "ha-na-be-eh").
