As others have said, Misa predominantly uses a pick and throws in slapping whilst hiding the pick. When she does play fingerstyle she gets even groovier in my opinion, she is like them all extremely versatile and will play whatever she feels adds value to the songs. Their versatility is just one of the things that makes them so listenable and makes me feel about rock like I did when I enjoyed certain other great bands from the 60's and 70's.

Great reaction, Rossta! Actually Misa is using pick a lot. She mastered a pick-hiding (under her index finger) technique, so she can switch from picking to popping/slapping and back to picking in a blink of an eye. Misa use any technique, including tapping, whatever suits the song she plays without clinging to any "unbreakable" rules.

Get the tickets. Now. As I was getting into BAND-MAID they were touring the US, and I missed them in NY. I thought, "That's a bummer, but they swing through the states once a year, at least. I'll catch them again soon enough." That was 2019. I think we all know what happened after that. By the time the new tour starts, it will have been THREE YEARS since they have been to the US. Get the tickets now.

As for the ladies playing anything, Akane - the drummer, MISA - the bassist, Kanami - Lead Guitarist all started playing piano when they were children. MISA added Guitar and Bass in high school, Akane added Trombone then drum in high school, Kanami went from piano to guitar in high school and has only been playing guitar for about 12-13 years. Miku and Saiki, neither could play an instrument other than their voices when they joined the band. Kanami has taught Miku how to play guitar and she is now one of the best rhythm guitarists in rock currently. Kanami has also been teaching Saiki guitar and piano, Saiki is also taking further instruction from Kanami's guitar tech according to a comment I read on Instagram. Kanami writes 90-95% of Band Maid's music, Miku writes 90% of the lyrics Saiki the other 10%. The Band Maid song writing process. Kanami sits down, usually at the piano and writes out the basic song. She then takes that and using her computer adds in the basic bass and drum line and send it to Akane and MISA, who change it to where they feel it should be. They send it back to Kanami, and she massages it some more, sometimes sending it back and forth a few times to get it where she wants it. Once it is finished, Kanami sends it to Miku who listens to it, and she decides the "Theme" of the song and writes the lyrics. For the most part there is no set way of Miku writing lyrics, she doesn't go to Kanami and say "Write me a song about this" she takes what Kanami gives her and feels how the music is and then writes the lyrics. On occasion though Saiki will tell Kanami to "Write me a song like _____" and Kanami will do so. Once Miku has her rough lyrics she will sometimes ask Saiki to take a look and see if she has any suggestions or changes and if she does those will be worked in. Once they have the music and the lyrics, they go into the studio and work out the final touches to mesh everything together into the sound which is Band-Maid.

You are not the first reviewer that I have heard reference math rock in their playing. Kanami, the lead guitarist has an economics degree which I'm sure involves all kind of higher math skills. From what I read she attended university at the request of here parents, after that, well I'm extremely glad she chose to play the guitar for a profession.

I think you would like the MV of 'Rinne' (Reincarnation) as you like the heavier sound. Also 'Blooming' might be up your alley too! Regarding 'Black Hole'. Its their fastest song (so far). Kanami (Lead guitar & composer) asked Akane how fast she could drum. Akane said around 190 bpm. So Kanami wrote Black Hole at 220 bpm! Then Akane went to work on the drum patterns for the song. She came up with 7 choices which she labelled 1. Easy 2. Comfortable 3. Normal 4. Possible if I work hard 5. Tough 6. Painful 7. Hell The band chose Hell.

Lead guitar and main composer is Tono Kanami: 遠乃 歌波 where Kanami (歌波) means "song wave" (歌 = "song" and 波 = "wave") Rhythm guitar and lyricist is Kobato Miku: 小鳩 ミク where Kobato (小鳩) means "small pigeon" (小 = "small" and 鳩 ="pigeon" Between MISA on bass and Akane on drums, this is one of the tightest and most versatile rhythm sections around. You want to groove? They can do that. You want jazz? Easy. You want funk? No problem. You want to head bang? They can definitely do that. They have great feel and a sense of style; they support the singer and guitars so unselfishly. Someone yesterday said something like "If you think what you're hearing is standard and normal, keep listening." They're almost always doing something really clever and inventive in the background.

There aren't any videos for it but I think their song Giovanni is a masterpiece of chaos. Certainly Black Hole is among my favorites. But Giovanni has such driving structure to its chaos. It's uncanny how they wrote this song. As writers, they had to be all in sync with the vision for Giovanni.

Great reaction. Manners is just straight up solid rock song with a groovy vibe. The live version is so good with the drums/bass intro and the vocals are much richer. Black Hole, on the other hand, is hard, heavy, frenetic craziness. Honestly, Black Hole is a bit overwhelming, as I feel mentally & emotionally drained listening to it. I wouldn’t waste my time, the recorded versions are great, but the live versions are very similar and are actually better. Concert prices are so high these days, I would jump on those tickets. Getting to the the maids in a small venue will be great.

MISA! MISA! MISA! She can pick, slap, tap, and play fingerstyle. You would probably like Rinne or Warning (official music videos) since you prefer their harder music. They can also slow it down even more, in fact, last Christmas they did an online acoustic concert. They also have an alter ego called BAND-MAIKO with a different esthetic.

Both those songs belong to MISA. Of course the other Maids are exceptional. But it all starts with the writing. Kanami is a genius. She really stretches the norms of musical theory. It takes a few seconds to realign the senses at the end of Black Hole. Stay with them man. There are more real gems to discover yet. The Maids just keep producing. Their slow acoustic versions of some of their songs will astound you. cheers.

You'd probably like Rinne and Puzzle (live, not acoustic) -- also Giovanni (available on YT in audio only). All these tend toward the heavier end of their range. But after you watch Puzzle live, look for Puzzle acoustic (if you can find it) and compare it with Puzzle live. Kanami is the name you need to learn: ace lead guitarist and -- most importantly -- the musical genius that writes most of Band-Maid's songs and instrumentals -- including Black Hole.

MISA uses a pick most of the time. You just have to be quick to catch it. She tucks it into her palm with her finger when she Slaps! Kanami (lead guitar) almost never sings. She does the chant on 'Clang' and she sings Miku's part on the acoustic version of 'Puzzle'. About the only time you'll ever hear MISA sing is in the BAND-MIKO songs, 'Gion Cho' and 'Secret Maiko Lips'. But, if you want to hear some Double Bass, check out their Thrash Metal influenced song, 'Rinne'.
