BAND-MAID... FROM NOW ON...REACTION

[@G-man_810]

This was my first Band-Maid song and it threw me into the pigeon hole! Enjoy the ride…it hasn’t stopped for me! Probably listened to Band-Maid every day since then! 🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!

[@dejzmi7089]

No wonder this came around as suggestion! Fantastic jam session and lots of intricate riffs!

[@powbobs]

I remember the first time I saw this live. It was immediately after Onset at the Silver Springs, Maryland show. I was about ten feet away from MISA and my jaw was on the floor.

[@dejzmi7089]

Oh that so awesome! with this power and sound in closed or opened space im sure it's joy to watch.

[@GaryHolloway-810]

From Now On let it be known that BAND-MAID should have their own battleship cos they're blowing everyone else out of the water :)

[@BRO-HI808]

I was laughing when you said..."OK, I don't think it's going to be a ballad". 😂 But knew you were going to be rocking out with it! Kanami is a song writing genius. All hail Mincho! Great reaction again! PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘 Next suggestions: "Daydreaming" OMV - since you mentioned ballad. This is a rock ballad masterpiece by Kanami ("Mincho"). In one of the interviews, she mentioned this was her favorite song to play. And you can see why. This will show you a different side of Band-Maid. "Puzzle" OLMV - The pieces all fall into place with this one. To make it even more interesting, there is also a live acoustic version floating out there. Do a two-for on this one. Start with the full Official Live version and then do the Acoustic. Two completely different feels for the song. Again, showing a different side of the Maids. "Alone" OMV - A historic milestone song for the Maids. Go back in time and watch the first song the label approved, which was written entirely by the Maids. Opened up their style to full mad genius of Mincho. "Thrill" OMV - Another historic milestone song for the Maids. Their first MV and the song/MV which saved the band. They look so young and were all still wearing "similar" Maid battle armor.😋

[@djfattytuna2858]

@@dejzmi7089 Since you are not afraid of the longer format, you may want to consider doing a Puzzle double: begin with the official live video and follow-up with the live acoustic set. You can see how well they can reinterpret their songs.

Many of us saw Band-Maid play “From Now On” live. OMNG! Kanami riffed her ass off. The DB’s matched the BPM’s! So FROM NOW ON, Band-Maid will grow in popularity even faster as their awesome, sold out 10TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR wrapped up at Japan’s 17,000 seat Yokohama Arena on Nov. 26 and at Hong Kong. AND they’re adding the finishing touches for their new album, Epic Narratives, dropping Sept. 25. Order now! The Maids are one of the hardest working supergroups in the business! Their music, their sound, each of the Maids... and the love that permeates their live events is an experience not to be missed. Hope you can catch them LIVE! Thx, Dejzmi!

Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。 I witnessed this song performed live five times with this MV quality in Japan and dropped my jaw five times 😲. I believe so did many of American audience in their 2022 & 2023 US tours. This song has been normally played in the middle of the setlist to give Saiki, lead vocalist, some break. They played this song, however, as opening at festivals and in Guns N' Roses concert in Japan as support to the legendary band. Yeah! they showed off their skills and talents to the audience who knew nothing about the girls in maid outfit on the stage. I felt as if I heard them screaming "Hey guys! Listen to us and open your eyes wide! We are not the persons that you think ! Salute us!" 😄

So glad you enjoyed the video. Akane is the double pedal queen in response to your question. As another commenter noted, it is great to see someone discover Band Maid with as much joy and enthusiasm as you have but your only scratching the surface.

Told ya. You just can't go wrong with these ladies! Both instrumentals, 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Since you usually listen to them twice, I suggest 'Don't You Tell Me' OMV followed by 'Don't You Tell Me' OLV. The OMV gives a little peek into their individual personalities such as Akane, aka the smiling gorilla's love for eating, or Misa, aka the barefoot assassin's love for alcohol!😂 The OLV is well, you know live.

Double pedal for sure, watch "Without Holding Back" (instrumental) and you'll see Akane's double kick it all her glory. If anyone is a "YES" fan they cam immediately gravitate to this song... I still insist MISA was channeling Chris Squire in her bass feature. Band-Maid is the epitome of success through hard work, determination, steadfastness and total love for their fans. No band lasts ten years with the same members and keeps getting better without this recipe.

Kanami (lead guitar) is a trained concert pianist, so on occasions you'll hear piano... and violin, I think MISA plays violin. Another plays a horned instrument, read something a while ago about other instruments they play. Hope I'm not botching up who plays what, but let's just say they are multi-talented on instruments.

[@Davey-Boyd]

Not sure about the violin. MISA can play piano, French horn and trumpet. She's played guitar too. Akane can play piano and trombone. Saiki can now play piano of course, and she was recently learning guitar.
