BAND-MAID contrasts Japanese pop culture’s neo-gothic frills and anime cuteness with powerful and melodic metal. Their music videos boast more than 200 million views. Wildly popular in their native Japan, Miku Kobato (guitar, vocals), Saiki (vocals), Kanami (lead guitar), Misa (bass), and Akane (drums) introduced “kawaii metal” globally in 2013. In contrast to traditional pop idols, the quintet writes their own songs and shreds their instruments with skill. In 2023, they held their 10th anniversary tour in Japan, the U.S., and Mexico, including Lollapalooza, culminating at one of Japan’s historic and iconic large-scale concert venues, the Yokohama Arena. BAND-MAID is set to kick off a new era with their upcoming album, slated for release on September 25, 2024. This marks the band’s first full-length record in over three years. The album will include 14 tracks such as “Shambles” (ending theme for the anime ‘Kengan Ashura’ Season 2), “Bestie” (a co-written song with Michael Aaron Einziger of Incubus, known for composing Avicii’s “Wake Me Up”), “Protect You” (ending theme for the TV anime ‘Grendizer U’), and a collaboration track “SHOW THEM” with the globally popular Mexican three-piece girl band The Warning.
