BAND MAID - FROM NOW ON - DRUMMER REACTS

Good aftermorning, Drum Nerds - hope all is well with you. Please enjoy the latest video BAND MAID - FROM NOW ON - DRUMMER REACTS.
Absolutely was taken back when I heard this track kick off with a
ritardando, some sharp cymbal chokes and a GUITAR SOLO. Little did I know the entire song is an instrumental, but my Zeus was it spectacular!
As always, the drum part in the song was massive and hard hitting, lots of dynamic changes, subdividing and intense hand/foot fills that were beyond spicey and well placed.

I am here for the premier- just on the bus with my phone so can interact via the comments section. Thanks and hope you’re all well 🤓

[@drogonr9318]

The drumming in this will cause ear addiction. This song, with the instrumentalists moving the parts all over the place, fits together like a puzzle. Marvelous composition.

[@Bodneyblue]

I am watching so much Japanese content on YT the adverts are no longer English......there in Japanese!!..AND!!...so are my Google searches!!.....What the hells going on!!?...Right now I've said that..Akane 🦍"I Am Gorilla" 🦍Hirose is my all time fav drummer.(which I may have mentioned before)....She is a breath of fresh air....Such class and imagination such power..and with elegance and a smile.....I am totally captived by her drumming...She is my emotional support animal.🥰.

[@DRUMNERD]

Sounds like you’ve got some fantastic taste and adds going on! She is a great inspiration for so many that’s true. Hope you’re well and keep doing your thing (enjoying all their wonderful content).

[@Bodneyblue]

@@DRUMNERD Thank You for your kind words..I do not know why my Google searches(ads) are ALL in Japanese!🤔.....I can't read them😒..It's very odd....Yes this band is special for me....They are more than just a band, they are my therapy.....And like therapy....it's expensive😵‍💫...But worth it.🥰..Long May They Reign!👑

[@powbobs]

Many of my ads are Japanese also. 😂 Don’t forget that Akane and MISA are also apparently hilarious in real life.

[@frankandre4385]

When I need a take on Akane's drumming,you are the one I watch. I'm no drummer but I know what I like. Your expertise makes me understand why I like it so much.

[@DRUMNERD]

Frank, thank you so much for the kind words! You’ve in turn just made my day ☺️ I hope you’re well mate.

[@surfingasongwave]

Drummers will say Akane is a "musical" drummer but it's hard for a non-musician to know what that means. When you went through the analysis at 7:15 - that's very helpful.

[@bretcrooks4207]

I love how this is the first song off the new ep unleash also hearing this and so many other songs live in both Houston and Dallas was amazing as others have said n i concour this band is a professional comedy show with amazing music thrown in i employ everyone when you have a chance to see the best rock band n the best live rock band going please don’t miss it trust me it literally doesn’t matter if you don’t speak Japanese you’re going to have a killer time and you won’t stop smiling and laughing

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Beware the Gorilla when the beast is unleashed.🦍

[@TomClark-Futoura]

Yeah, she leaves her peels all over the place -- even writes nasty messages and throws 'em at you. 🕺🍌

[@pulp-tx6lq]

Akane is a brilliant, creative and energetic drummer. I get Keith Moon vibes from her. They are a fantastic band. Great reaction.

[@DRUMNERD]

Absolute Keith moon vibes! Be well.

[@fastskipper777]

The intro is part of the song. Akane is brilliant. Also, Lovebites is the band with a new bassist Fami.

[@DRUMNERD]

Yeah my memory is pretty bad so will need to improve that. Brilliant song though eh.

[@freewheeler2go]

Such brilliance on display here! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@geoffb5]

The guitar is the vocals.

[@philcalvino884]

Thanks, man, great breakdown, always learning something from your analyses.

[@robertandre778]

thanks , love this band

[@TomClark-Futoura]

Many of us just recently saw Band-Maid play “From Now On” live. OMNG! Kanami riffed her ass off. And the BPM’s matched the DB's! 😶‍🌫Thx, Colin!

[@kennogawa6638]

The piano in the backing track makes me wonder if Kanami performed that too.

[@785boats]

Yes I do believe she records the piano parts in their songs. She composes a lot of her music on the piano, and converts it to guitar. Can't remember which interview I read that in. But she is an extremely good pianist. here's a little taste, with an added treat with Saiki on the piano too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYLQnn2Kd52ggpo

[@throwaway9389]

Kanami has a couple short videos of her playing piano versions of BM songs on Instagram. The only reason I got an account on that platform.

[@jan-ovepedersen5764]

Kanami is a trained piano player, she writes and performs their piano parts. She use piano in composing as well, she is really good on piano 🙂

[@arminthielen8570]

" Without holding back " is another great Instrumental and Akane is very busy at the Drums as always 😋

[@EliseAutoXr]

No bass person change, that is LoveBites. Also, the build-up at the beginning is part of the song (not just for the video). Very enjoyable song, thanks for the reaction and your perspective.

[@DRUMNERD]

Thanks for that- I knew I had it wrong but someone changed - hopefully everyone will see this comment and not slate me now every minute 🤣 Be we’ll.

[@elevown]

@@DRUMNERD its no big deal- you react to a lot of bands!

[@frankandre4385]

@@DRUMNERD I'm glad you don't know the minutia of Band Maid...It means "The tiny dictator" hasn't sent you into full turtling "Claude Lemieux" mode,where all you can do is naval gaze and focus in on distractions to stop from losing your mind ! Yay...You have a weird thing called...a "life" Keep checkin them into the boards pal !

[@MaartenT]

@@elevown I also think Misa's look probably changed the most with their new costume change, so I understand the confusion. I have actually seen it before on other channels as well, it happens. It's very difficult to keep up with all the stuff that happens with all the Japanese bands when you aren't really focussed on trying to keep up.

[@thisismadness6962]

Awesome reaction man. We don't get enough breakdown on drums. I'm going to enjoy this song even more now.

[@Greg-om2hb]

Here’s a fan cam video OF FROM NOW ON, from the San Francisco concert, shot from front and center, that captures a lot of AKANE’s crushing drum work. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6POfZWwgruDjpY

[@garygrinsh2657]

the base change you talking about is happened to " Lovebites" group .

[@powbobs]

MISA is the original bassist. They all love and respect her.

[@charcolew]

Not yet 2k subscribers but you have nearly a thousand likes on this? Is this a KZbin record? Hats off!

Thank you very kindly! If I can bring happiness and drum insight to people, then my job is done. Love all the subs and likes, happy Friday.

[@redj59]

great review - I learn a lot from your comments

[@bandmaidfanATL]

No, that was Lovebites. MISA is, and always, will be The BandMaid Bassist. If it ain't MISA, it ain't BandMaid.

[@ethangospodareck]

"Canada's tiny little dictator" 🤣.....new fan right there. Thanks for doing this one. Long time Band-Maid fan.

Perfect! I’m glad more will now call him what he is. Love you and all other fellow Canucks - true north and free. Be well.

[@fifis677]

No new "individuals". Although Miku's the one who had the idea for the band, they're all founding members and they ALL slay. Not only are they great musicians, but you can hear how crazy talented the songwriting is. If you haven't already, check out Band-Maid's song "Freedom" live. You'll thank me.

[@chatelain567]

YA!! Akane soloing throughout as she always does!!

Hahahaha, it could go on for days eh. Hopefully you’re well.

[@DragonPhlyy]

Please do the new Nemophila track called Seize The Fate!

[@iDEATH]

BAND-MAID never disappoints, and you're pretty consistent with these enjoyable reactions/analysis too. I've got couple more for you, if you want to add to you're growing collection of cool Japanese bands: First, SAISEIGA. Their drummer, Tohko, has a few drum playthroughs on their channel. I think she's pretty good, but I'd love an expert opinion. Definitely more metal, solid all around, but for me it's their singer, Regan that's the big draw. Something about her tone hits me just right. For more instrumentals you should really get to Asterism, as well. Three piece, instrumental only, they're young (the oldest is 23, other two just 20) but have been going for a few years already. Really talented musicians.

[@throwaway9389]

Maybe Sokoninaru as well.

[@DavidMISAMISAMISACook]

MISA MISA MISA!!!!!

[@smexijebus]

Wait my drummer friend isn't always cursing me out, he's just practicing?

[@swarm_ascending4439]

FYI her name is pronounced Ak-ar-nay, and not Acane. Keep it up.

[@VegetaRabbit]

I think this is one of Akane's best performances. Liked your air drumming. Since you like drums you should check out: tricot - Niwa Studio Live Session with 5 Drummers kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJbXpI2iptKfja8 The band tricot was in between drummers so they brought in Miyoko Yamaguchi (detroit7, BimBamBoom) to cover some tour dates. In this video, Miyoko Yamaguchi (lady in hoody) starts off the drumming and is joined by four more pro drummers to add a proper amount of percussion.

[@bobbyweber2011]

Same line up since 2013

[@billb.5183]

Yep it's poor memory. Lovebites had the bass change. At least you didn't call the drummer ah-cane this time.

[@DRUMNERD]

Need more coffee I think.

[@AntonioMellor]

@@DRUMNERD Too much blood in your caffeine stream? ☕ Another great reaction! I appreciate your insights and knowledge of the drumming. 🤘😎🤘

[@DRUMNERD]

@@AntonioMellor Right? What the hell is that blood doing in my coffee veins - I'll get more soon enough :) Be well.

[@jonnyberggren4598]

I guess ure mixing up Bandmaid with Lovebites. Lovebites changed basist... I really think u should get an arm for ure microphone..Both holding it drink coffe, comment, listening, air drum, is at least one thing to much. Besides that it looks goofy to hold that kinda mic in ure hands haha... Youre drum analysis is good thats why I'm here tho. So hopefully you take what I say as constructive criticism.

[@kerrylewis7964]

Nope no bass change.

[@falconsooner]

What? No love for the US in your world cup comments? Yes the symphonic music is part of the song. You did misspeak. Same bass player. Lovebites changed bass players.

[@DRUMNERD]

Oh I really want them to do well - always have (Dempsey is my all time favourite player) would have loved them to get a cup when he was playing. Englands my team but always want Canada and US to do well and would always support them if England got out.

[@falconsooner]

@@DRUMNERD I actually rooted hard for England in the last World Cup. Since the US didn't make it...England was my adopted team. I wanted to experience the full heartbreak and disappointment of being an England fan and they actually did really well. My youngest daughter went to college at Nacogdoches TX where Dempsey is from. Small town and everytime I visited there I was astounded that arguably the US's greatest player (sorry Donovan fans) came from that small town. It is Lovebites that changed bass players.
