A Tokyo band that plays tight metal and rock while dressed as maids.
For a quick sense of their sound, try 'Thrill' or 'Influencer'. They're a good example of how a visual gimmick can become something real when the playing is this sharp.
They built a following through live shows despite some initial industry skepticism about their style. Songs like 'Thrill' and 'DOMINATION' show their mix of rock energy with precise playing. Their stage presence involves maid costumes, which became part of their visual identity early on.
Band-Maid formed in Tokyo in 2013 with Saiki Atsumi on vocals, Miku Kobato and Kanami Tōno on guitars, Misa on bass, and Akane Hirose on drums. Their debut album 'Maid in Japan' came out in 2015, followed by 'Brand New Maid' in 2016 and 'World Domination' in 2018. They've kept releasing music, including 'Unseen World' in 2021.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
