Pause as much as you want to say what you want to say. We’ve all heard this song a thousand times. We’re here for YOUR reaction. If you process a song the best by pausing and breaking down what you just heard, then definitely do that!
Hear hear!!! Perfectly put!
We know why they do instrumentals. To me, this one feels like Kanami seeing and reading the comments "I love her solos, but they are too short" from reactors and fans. And then she thinks "ok Miku.... press upload" LOL In a well written instrumental you hear the lyrics when there are none. This is what they opened Aftershock with. Crowd doubled by the end of it.
And instrumentals are also good for making Saiki's voice rest in live. Because she got an operation of throat polyp several years ago.
Kanami’s guitar do the singing. And soloing at the same time. Magical song 🔥❤️ For me…Kanami is the most impressive musician of the 21st Century. Pure genius as a composer and true Rock n’ Roll on stage. Lovin’ Band-Maid 🔥🤘❤️ Greets from Finland 🇫🇮
Yes! Kanami Is a brilliant of this bend! QUEEN!!!
@@zinoviylubman5553 🙏🏻❤️🔥
One of the godzillian things I love about these maids is that from the beginning they have pushed themselves 3 steps farther than their current ability. They always write just over their own heads and then they force themselves to "Do it!" It has, as you can see, paid mega dividends!
What I find amazing is that after all this time, all these albums, their music isn't just still strong, it keeps getting better. In my fifty years as a rocker / metalhead, only a handful of the bands I've loved have been able to do that. Most bands start to fizzle after a couple of albums, their creative wells running dry, but not Band-Maid. I love this band more with every new song.
@@uh8myzen Truth
"What do you even say after something like that?"
You say "Domo arigatou gozaimasu!"
Masterpiece. They can play anything they want and make a masterpiece out of it. That is the sign of a genius.
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 writing and recording for their new album!
[JUST COMPLETED] BAND-MAID 10TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR SPIN OFF -- SOLD OUT!!
Extra show of selected songs that were not performed at the 10th anniversary tour final at Yokohama Arena. VENUE：KT ZEPP YOKOHAMA DATE: February 22, 2024
The Maids are one of the hardest working super groups 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, JD!
Yes. Kanami plays the vocals for the Verses, Choruses, Bridges, Transitions, Backing vocals etc. And also throws in the solo's. She is not of this world I tells ya.
And of course the other Maids deliver stellar performances to match her.
A highlight for me is Misa. Dressed in all black, long black hair, playing the Black Cloud bass, standing beside the black speaker stack, in the black shadows. Just like the Assassin that she is. That's just plain sexy. Or have I said too much?
Too bad she doesn't use this black guitar. She looks like a goddess!!!!!
Spot on 👍🍻
@@zolitoth2458 It can be seen in some of their older videos. But yes, I wish she would bring it out now & then. The one in this clip is "The Black Smoker".
Kanami's classical and singer/songwriter background shows through in lots of Band-Maid songs, but I think From Now On has to be Exhibit A. Plus, then you get MISA and Akane, who both went to music schools and add their expertise. And of course we can't forget Miku, who has gone so far, so fast.
Kanami has said that she writes the guitar parts for instrumentals in a way that fills the tonal space left empty by the absent vocals.
I agree with you on what you said with reference to Dream Thater. DT was my favorite band of all times from their record Images and Words came out in 1992 and until I found Band-Maid in 2021. I have everything DT have ever released, and same with Band-Maid who is now my favorite band of all times. I've see DT once and BM twice, both fantastic bands, but I have to give it to the maids for creating increadible music. I still buy everything DT, but BM is my #1. If someone had said in January of 2020 (saw DT live) that I would listen to a band of girls dressed in maid costumes I would have laughted my ass off. I didn't laugh for a second because after listen to 10 of their videos I knew I had struck gold. I will see them again on March 20th in Tokyo 🙂
Yes, my friend. This was the song that changed everything for me. The more you listen to this, the more musically alive you shall be 🤘🏽
I’m listening to this on repeat!
It's always amusing the video opening with the super ominous music, with Miku standing there in her extra voluminous maid's outfit.
I say after hearing this: "Let's hear it again!". My favorite song as soon as it premiered. For me Kanami is the genius that needs to be chiseled on Mt Rushmore. Yes, that's a dare for you to cover this one. Peace. 7.8
Sing PRS sing~♪♬♫
The first time i heard this song I was amazed about how “correct” it sounded from start to finish. But also that the song rests on a very straight forward foundation. Kanami had many options on what melodies to play, the rhythm arrangement, which I’m sure was augmented by Akane and Misa, the tempo, etc and it ends up so good. I think they could rewrite on this foundation 10 more times and write 10 more killer tracks.
Oh, and great comment! "It's just refreshing to be surprised musically." YES! A thousand times yes.
Thank you for reacting to Band-Maid - From Now On. This instrumental is one of their 4 amazing instrumentals (onset, Don't Be Long, without holding back, From Now On). You can actually listen to many Band-Maid songs where the vocals are removed, and the songs stands fine on their own as instrumentals. Band-Maid write music this way. Play was written to be an instrumental, but Saiki liked it so much she asked Miku to write lyrics for her to sing. I have seen them play From Now On twice, and they are just as good live as in this video. You may react to anything by Band-Maid, but if you like Metal I think the song I'll will work well. Greetings from Norway.
I learned that when the Maids start with some orchestral lead in, they are coming off the deck at full afterburner and won't let up until the end of it. Good times. 😸
I agree with you JustDunk. Thrill is not a bad song from a musical point of view and was composed by another author but From Now On is of a stratospheric level and is their own music which proves their golden talent. Have a great time watching Ohrenje's excellent documentaries which teach us a lot about the Maids' attractive personalities. Thanks
One of the best instrumentals I've ever heard. I saw them play this live, standing just feet away from Kanami, watching her hands, and it was a blur. She doesn't get hyped as a shredder the way, for example M&M or Saki and Hazuki, but she is in fact a monster shredder. She just keeps it under wraps most of the time.
Amen 🙏🏻❤️
Band Maid healed me too man. Thanks.
This song is an instrumental Mincho Masterpiece. 🤘✌
I saw this live in Denver in 2023. I already knew it was one of my favorite tracks. I also already knew that Kanami was REALLY good, but man, that night, that performance was a REVELATION! I'm surprised the venue is still standing. Great work, JD and thanks so much! 🕊
So cool!
You can put this song to any S-tier movies to make it even more EPIC 🔥
The world debut of this was live as the first song at a festival in Japan before it was released. It's the first track on the Unleash EP, and they led off their Lollapalooza set with this. They played it live at all 2022 US Tour gigs except the final show. Kanami was exhausted at the end of the tour, and she said she was afraid she'd pass out if they played it that night.
I've seen them three times and they have done this at each show I was at.
This song was a highlight when they performed it at Aftershock as the first song of their tiny set. I just remember it was being streamed all over on big monitors, and once it started there was a huge shift in the Festival crowd, everyone had to see them.
@@michaelebert9163 They also led off with this song when they opened for Last Rock Stars and Guns 'n Roses. They were throwing it down as their street cred.....😉😉
If your gonna do O's doc's i'd recommend Saiki first as it is meant to be the start point. Saiki, Kanami, Akane, MISA then Miku. Also O's in the process of re-doing/updating them. All except Miku's. Saiki's was already released. Dont see a reason ya couldn't still do whats there though, just know the quality of Saiki's and Miku's are a bit better which is part of the update.
I absolutely enjoyed the reaction, I've listened to this a couple dozen times and I'm still amazed at their "top tier" musicianship, I play rhythm guitar (not well) and drums (medium well) but i still have trouble wrapping my head around how they put the different layers together so seamlessly
For the Documentary series, start with Saiki => Kanami => Akane => MISA => Miku (1, 2, 3) as set on Ohrenje’s playlist
Thanks for that!
There are 4 specific things that caught my attention when I discovered them 4 years ago. 1. Akane's kick patterns are pure genius 2. Misa 3. Misa 4. Misa. My first thing ever posted to CZcams is this song from the Nasville show and it's just as great live as the studio version
"Holy shit... aahhh ..... Holy crap ...so much to unpack in the first minute here" accompanied by one of the best " stank faces" going, oh you must be listening to BAND-MAID my friend 😄 good stuff, cheers 👍🍻
I put this Song right up there with all the instrumentals of the past.. The Ventures, Duane Eddy,Booker T and the mgs. And maybe even Dick Dale... Kanami's instrumentals are incredible. I love Kanami's song writing and composing skills. Band-Maid Forever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I haven't said "Oh. The triplets" since Pattaya Thailand
I had "discovered" Band-Maid 2 years ago while looking for interesting music. I had found the typical Band-Maid Introductory videos: "Thrill", "Non-Fiction Days", "Real Existence", "Don't You Tell ME", and then I found their Day of the Maid "Manners/Black Hole" video. They were all really good hard rocking songs, demonstrating competent musicianship, but when I heard "Manners" I realized that Band-Maid might be something different, creative at a different level. Then following that with the onslaught of "Black Hole", which seemed to be this strange mix of Speed Metal and Broadway show tunes, I was taken aback. This isn't anything I had heard before. 'Day of the Maid' stuck in my head and when I came across another 'Day of the Maid' video, "Onset", I had to watch. And I was astounded. "Onset" was an incredible action adventure movie soundtrack of epic proportions. In my mind, with "Onset", Band-Maid had entered the realm of legendary super-groups like Rush, Led Zeppelin, The Stones, Pink Floyd, etc. and I was having difficulty understanding two things. First, how had Band-Maid flown under my radar for the last 8 years, and secondly, how the heck would they ever top "Onset"? It was such a mind-blowing instrumental.
A few months passed by and Band-Maid released "Unleash" and my second question was answered when "From Now On" was uploaded to CZcams. This tune hits you HARD.
I am now a huge fan of this band and I have learned that as their career has progressed they have assumed greater and greater creative control, of their compositions, arrangements, studio production, mixing, budgeting, merch, PR, etc. They have that Punk Rocker DIY work ethic and they do it all very, very well with barely any missteps. One of the clues are the backing tracks they produce for their compositions. Unlike so many modern pop artists who go into the studio with vague song ideas and wind up with "songs" written by random committee of passersby pieced together by a 'name' producer, Band-Maid does it by themselves with a crew that they hire. They piece together the backing track using themselves as the studio musicians. This is why "From Now On" is such a powerful piece: the piano, the synth, and everything else on the backing track is pure Band-Maid, created to support and augment their live play. They played "From Now On" at every club gig on their 10Ant tour, only excluding it from short festival sets.
Yeah......they're that good. Akane made me throw my drumsticks away and take up knitting......Hard Rock knitting of course........it's new.
Saw this performed live when Kanami was not feeling her best . They still nailed it
Great reaction ty
New Jersey? I missed that one but reportedly, despite being in an indoor amusement park/ shopping mall, it might have been one of the best shows of the tour.
Classic Band-Maid "this shouldn't work and now we'll knock it outta the park just to mess with your head. "
This song is simply amazing 🤘😄
I love that they do these instrumentals 😊
Looking forward to watch the documentary with you. Especially learning about Miku and what she achieved to get BAND-MAID to where they are now is a real inspiration. Have fun ✌️🙂
And that settles the question of how many singers this band has. The correct answer is 5! 🤭 If you count the instrumental part and the vocal part as well, we even get to 10, after the Yokohama concert in November last year. 🤯 ... One of those calculations which is why math was never my favorite class. But i just love the result of it! 😂🤘🏻

@@zolitoth2458 I wouldn't go that far, but thanks! 😂🙏🏻
Pretty much my reaction every time they release something new and I've been listening to them since 2014.
This song is ; hold up..kanami is speaking ❤❤❤
Great reaction vid , bro! So much to unpack in every BM song man..even after years of devouring this band's music daily, I still cannot stop finding new things to be blown away by! this BANDDDD...maid..lol..
Couldn't agree more
☺ 👍
I'm sure others have said this but don't do Miku's doc first, it's supposed to be the 3 part finale to the series. The start point is Saiki. But great reactions man I've been really enjoying them.
Thanks Dante, I have been directed correctly and I can’t wait to learn!
Great reaction !!!! Your face was priceless. I am BIG fan of instrumentals going back to the early 1960's with Don Wilson and The Ventures, The Surfaris, The RipChords, The Chantays, The Tornados and from England, The Shadows. It is a genre that died out, but Band Maid has brought it back with a passion. Onset and From Now On are two of the best I have ever heard and I heard on the Maid News Network that there is a version of the album Unleash that just has the instrumentals from every song on the album, with no vocals.
One thing I have to say, not enough is said about Miku's progression as a rock guitarist from when she first picked one up. She was blessed to have Kanami as her sensei so you know she was getting great instruction. And the fact that they have THE classic rock setup with lead and rythym guitar along with bass and drums makes it even more enjoyable. The way that Miku fills in those spots that may otherwise be uncovered just makes the music so much more solid and continuous. What I want to see is how far they can progress in their excellence. They seem to have no ceiling on what they accomplish.
Pause as much as you want. Personally I think this might be Band Maids best compositional piece. You had some nice insights.
Why thank you falcon, I agree this was amazing
The main difference between THRILL and FROM NOW ON - or any of their songs after ALONE - is that THRILL was not written by KANAMI - ALONE was their first sole attempt at writing their own songs. After that I think it isn't so much the talent grew as their confidence in themselves grew. So keep watching a new album is coming!
Damn I felt your struggle at the end to either stop and analyze or just sit back and let it play. I lovvvve this song! Also can’t wait to see you watch the documentary :)
1. Great Reaction
2. All for you checking out the Documentary series but you should know Orenje is in the process of re-masteting thm and re-releasing the new updated versions.
3. There is an order in which they were created to be viewed. Saiki is 1st and Miku is meant to be last as its a 3 parter
Akane brings out the inner 🦍GORILLA🦍in me.
Kanami's Gear
Guitars
PRS Custom 24 (Purple) Mahogany Body - I have tried other guitars as well. Among those I’ve tried, PRS was the perfect guitar for my image of BAND-MAID songs.
PRS Custom 24 (Green) Korina Body
Amps
Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier
4×12 Recto Standard cabinet
Effects - When I compose, I don’t think much about the effects. I use it to enhance the songs I've already written live.
Here are the typical settings of my (KANAMI) pedalboard:
Delay: Free The Tone FT-2Y, Eventide TimeFactor - I prefer using Digital Delay on the TimeFactor and on the H9, I use Spring Reverb. I use Free The Tone FT-2Y in a series circuit because it adds delays to a set tempo. TimeFactor is used to connect sends and return effects to clean and solo channels. On the other hand, I use H9 only for songs that use reverb. Currently, I only use it for reverb, but I would like to try more algorithms in the future.
Reverb: Eventide H9 - I am a big fan of Eventide's so I want to keep using it forever!
Volume: Shin’s Music Perfect Volume
Drive: One Control Strawberry Red Overdrive, Fulltone Obsessive Compulsive Drive Overdrive Distortion - I use the boost pedal to add more gloss and deepness in the clean channel or to amplify the sound of the solo or riff.
Booster: Friedman Buxom Boost
Compressor: Pete Cornish OC-1
Noise Reduction: ISP Technologies Decimator II
Wah: Morley Steve Vai Bad Horsie 2
Octave: Digitech Drop
They’ve brought ❤of music to so many. ❤❤❤❤❤
Agreed!!
Like a James Bond movie song!
Just checked my pulse and it probably went up 10-15 pts during it because it's like a rollercoaster ride.
Great reaction!!! Nice breakdown of what a musician hears/knows when viewing this! Shock and awe and gleeful exclamations=just as it should be!
You wanna start with the Miku documentary? Well sounds logical but Ohrenje had another order in mind. He started with Saiki and ended with three (!!!) episodes about Miku. Maybe you should follow his order😊 have fun with it. They are really well done and extremely interesting 🕊️ Po
Not a big Band maid fan but this song is fantastic. Probably the best song i heard from a Japan band that doesn,t have Miyako in it..
Hell yeah Meshuggah!!!
Noooooo!...(documentaries)...start with Saiki...then Kanami...then Akane...then MISA...then Miku!...pleasssssse!🙏
I will, sorry about the order mixup!
@@JustDunkGood call! :) The Miku 3-parter is sort of a summary of them all. You'll see ;)
Kanami composes beautiful music. No vocals needed.
Well said!
Kanami would disagree about not needing vocals - she loves Saiki and Miku.
Not the Whammy, but a DigiTech Drop Box. For her Wah she's using the Morley Bad Horsey.
Highly suggest you watch the doc series in the order of hs playlist. They came out in a specific order and have a flowing story to them. The Miku three parter is the end of the series and it starts with Saiki.
Absolutely
Kanami🥰took the vocals in her own hands on this one.
You should do Saiki first.
Artists.
Japanese, yes Women, definitely. Artists. Completely.
Perfect bookend for their Genshin Impact cover. (Dawn Winery Theme)
God bless you for the Dream Theater reference po😢 7:36
yeah you should see them live, misa is the goddes on that bass
When they want to, they can sure bring it!
These girls bring it!!
Without holding back is an even better instrumental.
What a great reaction
Thank you Po!
Now you know you have to be barefoot when you cover MISA right? By the way, MIKU is the last in the series of documentaries you mention, it actually stars with Saiki then Kanami, Akane and MISA. But no big deal if you get them out of order.
Kanami sings for over 3 minutes.
So, you liked it then? 🙂
Glenner I’m gonna give this one a Hell Yeah
Just as good if not better live.
Don`t start with Miku , Start with Saiki , miku`s is last its in 3 parts , its designed to be the last one .
When you play it? Don't need maid costume 😉... Did you checked already they song Without holding back? Instrumental as well.
I haven’t but I will!!
What great is this song in live is better than MV.
Agreed!! I love a stellar live performance
🤘🤘🤘
