- Good afternoon DRUM NERDS hopefully you're well. Please enjoy today's instalment of BAND MAID - ALONE - DRUMMER REACTS.
It's nothing new that on this channel we all enjoy a good dose of BAND MAID but when hearing this song, the drum fills of including Bonham triplets and also a few cheeky 16th note triplets while rolling down the toms, it's no wonder this song needed to be featured!
My big take away from the song though has to be the opening verse groove with the many snare hits both on the up and down beats - it's a gorgeous staple groove.

Great review! I LIKE when you get all nerdy in your descriptions. I'm not a drummer, and you help me understand what Akane's doing.
Dan, thank you so very much for the kind words and support. I greatly appreciate it ☺️. Be well and glad to be able to help.
"Alone" was the first song that was totally written & composed by the Maids. It's as important in BAND-MAID's past history as "Thrill" was in ensuring they had a future :)
Well they sure showed the world how very talented they are. Great writers and great band! Be well.
More precisely, it's not the first song they wrote, but the first they wrote that the company agreed to record 😉
@@realdocloco Thx Doc that's what i meant. I don't know why i missed out a whole middle section.🤷♂️ I've always wondered that when the record execs sat down & listened to "Alone" whether someone said "Who's the idiot who hasn't let B-M play their own songs"?
It seems logical that they offered several songs, and Alone was chosen. I wonder what else they offered. Likely what was on the next record but would be interesting to know for sure.
@@crabuki1273 No, they said in interview they never re-used a rejected song.
This is Kanami's first composition that was "allowed" to be recorded. And the world was never the same. Peace. 1.52
All hail Akane 'London comic con 2016', that show should never be forgotten, all Band-Maid fans need to find it and treasure it.
It's in my vault!
Keep it safe 🤘🤘
That one from the stage side is a GEM. MVs or the live DVDs never actually show how hard she pounds & kicks.
The best work by the Beast!
Akane is the best rock drummer imho. Yes she is even better than Neal Peart and the triplets abuser Bonzo. She has invented a new style into the rock scene.
That's right mate
It's silly to talk about best. Akane is really really good. Is it just me or does she do her fills a lot faster than everyone else?
This may be a strong exaggeration, but it is completely acceptable. :)
Once they were left "Alone" by their record / management companies to create what they wanted, well... look what they did. Alone! BAND-MAID is an important influence and contributor to the music industry with a continuous, growing worldwide fanbase. But to me, they are just the best sounding, best writers of hard rock music, and the most fun, joyous group of musicians to come along since the Beatles. Thx, D-Nerd!
Love your comments on the solo journey. Enjoyed it!
K c thank you kindly for the wonderful support. Be well 😀
It is always a pleasure to listen to musicians unravel the details of this extraordinary band. Thank you!
Thank you Juan, I really do appreciate the kind words and support. I hope you're well. :)
Jimmy Page had his picture taken with Akane after a Maid concert in Tokyo saying she reminded him of Bonham.
While many consider Stephen Morris of New Order the human drum machine, Akane Hirose-san is like the human metronome. She's never off-time.
She has one hell of an internal clock that’s for sure. Be well
Unless she deliberately adds "delay" to her beat. 😉👍
Always in my top 5 BANDMAID tracks. Just so good on so many levels.
You should take a look at their newer stuffs, especially songs in the Unseen world album.
He has done "Manners/Black Hole", but yes, more please!
Prefer mostly the melodic ( older stuff ) over what I consider in some cases, the chaotic. Seems the overwhelming majority of the reactors. Do do the newer stuff. How many reactions to the last song that was released by them. Have you seen in the last 3 weeks ? Maybe we could let one or two reactors cover some of the older material. That many of us grew to love first. I don't know just a suggestion I guess ! Get away a little bit from the group think !
茜ちゃんは凄い、ドラマーですよ。
i've just been schooled on drumming - by both you and akane. one my favorite parts is at 7:33 in your video where she changes it up to that thrash beat.
Thank you mr doc 🥹 I appreciate the kind and supportive words. Yeah, when she shifts the beat it’s unreal. Love the track. Be well!
@@DRUMNERD i see on your channel that you have done a lot of LOVEBITES. consider me subscribed. my favorite band maybe ever. so you are familiar with their drummer haruna yosai - simply insane. for one of her best performances with crazy fills - her trademark - you must hear the live of 'set the world on fire'. and they do : th-cam.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/w-d-xo.html
Love your analysis, always learn something new.
Vegeta rabbit, thank you kindly for the words! I appreciate it and love the name/picture ☺️ be well
Kanami's solo in this song is metal, really slashy, which I don't hear from her often.
Thank you for your in-depth analysis. I'm not a drummer, but watching and listening to you helps me have a greater understanding of what I'm hearing. I love Band Maid and I encourage you to keep analyzing more of their work! If you are debating which song to pick, I would suggest Warning. It has some amazing drumming.
Yowza, 🇨🇦
I like professional reactions to Band Maid. You can see how musicians appreciate BM.
Thanks for that Haggai, I really do appreciate the band and their amazing ability! I hope you're well :)
Another very important milestone in the history of this band. I still love this song from the first to the last second. 🔥🤘🏻 And once again some nice details in the MV. In the first frames Saiki pushes her microphone stand away with full force and has never used one since, an empty studio which fits that it is their first own song to see the light of day, and the whole thing under a title that matches everything. :)

Actually I think I hear straight 16ths (R hand, L hand, R foot, L foot) instead of triplets in Akane’s fills. Listen again and see what you think. Enjoyed your reaction! 😎
Cheers for that, it very well could be that indeed - I’ll take a look back and see. I get so excited with these things I miss hear some times 🥹. Be well
@@DRUMNERD Anytime! I’m a drummer as well and have worked on the pattern I mentioned above for a while. I got it down pretty well, but of course not as good as Akane. 😊
Drum nerd you pause and comment all you want to bandmaid!❤😊 My favorite band ever!💯🤘🤘👍
Bro, check out ASTERISM songs (instruMetal) DAWN, RISING MOON, LIGHTS IN THE DARKNESS, this girl got all the world best guitars soloist fingers 🙌 watch her solo's and 7string bass solo's 🤘
Akane's fills are something else. The song H-G-K has some of my favorite drumming (so far) by Akane
So when's the Band-Maid cover? 😜
Great question sir! As soon as I’m up and running in my studio - that will be on the table 😀 be well
MISA MISA MISA!
Cool reaction! Have you heard their song Warning yet! 1:54 min into the song Akane does a drum roll that is amazingly mind blowing! She is one of the best in the music scene today!
Comments? We don't need no stinkin' comments! BAND MAID! Kills it every time :)
They do crush it always. Never a dropped beat. Be well.
Second verse, 3:03 in this video. Guitar, bass, and drum together on those runs down the scale. Hoo boy.
If You haven't reacted to Band-Maid's YOLO... then You should. 😅
Thanks DN! another great one. Flippin killed it didn't she? (Akane).
All due credit to Kanami, (85%ish?) I imagine the Mincho reject scores before this to be terabytes.
Every drummer has a floor tom ride, no? How else do you do a Bo' Diddly beat?
Tony, she absolutely smashed it! It's always a treat to listen to her play drums but also to read the comments that come afterwards from people such as yourself - I always learn so much more after uploading the video (as you and te others know so much more than me) I LOVE IT! It's the only drum set up that makes sense 😝 Be well.
I must request this song to drummers who react and they almost never seem to get to it. I know you've already gone through the Pigeon hole though so I'll shut up now.
So that's what you think of people watching your channel that make comments about how you pause and talk about every little thing , well you can stick you channel you know were , cause with out an audience you have no channel , I won`t be watching yours any more .
I think you greatly miss understand - I meant the people being rude to me about sharing things that I deem important to talk about on the topic (drums) I’m greatly appreciative of every single one who watches and subscribed and helps out - but I don’t appreciate people saying rude things to me for no reason. I’ll assume you miss understood and not say anything mean back, though if it wasn’t a miss understanding - then it’s a different matter. Thanks Dennis, be well.
So Dennis, was this one big miss understanding that we can chalk up to lost in translation - or do you stand by me sticking my channel up my arse? I genuinely would like to know. Be well.
