Miku admits finding Kanami was a miracle---she calls here Kanami-Sensei.
That's true, even though there's no correlation between Miku finding her and calls her sensei. Also she only calls her that on-screen only.
From the interview before the World Domination Tour at Line Cube Shibuya
ua-cam.com/video/SltjaoNBlbY/v-deo.html
MIKU worked at a Maid Café in Akihabara Japan before starting BAND MAID
MIKU found KANAMI by chance watching UA-cam videos KANAMI was making
KANAMI thought MIKU was a strange girl - but without any reluctance she joined with MIKU and thought the maid uniforms were cute while playing the rock music.
KANAMI contacted AKANE as the drummer
AKANE contacted MISA as they had gone to music school together
MISA was hesitant to join as she was not into the maid outfits.
Changes to the outfits were made for MISA
MIKU thought here voice "lacked potency" she says "I want more coolness" so she went looking for another singer to do twin vocals.
MIKU found SAIKI who was singing on her own. MIKU's manager said that if MIKU told SAIKI the truth about the maid outfits SAIKI would probably not join. So MIKU tricked SAIKI into joining the band.
SAIKI says "they told me there were 5 girl members and made me listen to the songs. She remained silent about the maid outfits or there being a pigeon.
The first live show of the 5 members was decided and the day before was the rehearsal. This was the first time that the 5 members were together.
SAIKI had met the other members but not MIKU. SAIKI says "When I experienced this 'PO' and 'KURUPO' thing it was completely different than hearing about it". This was also the first time she knew about the maid outfits and she could not run away.
SAIKI says "YEAH I WAS TRICKED!"
I'm sure Kanami feel the same about meeting Miku who had faith in her.
Now she can live the rock dream and be the cool girl she wanted to be when she started to play guitar.
@@一般人-e8x
Kanami is in fact, Miku's guitar coach.
Miku thought to form a band is already a miracle to happen
When you can get a musically overeducated, super talented musical nerd to smile when listening to a simple rock song as much as anyone else, then you know you made it. Love your reaction! I'm an old, failed musician who never could play, but faked so good it sounded like I could. I even got to tour, but after a while there was too much of the same or so complicated music that it was not fun to listen to any more. After 20 years without getting excited over music and only having "Weekly discovery" on Spotify in the background, I stumbled on a YT video with Band-Maid and I realized that music actually still could be fun without being simple. At a very old age, I finally became an obsessed fanboy like I never had been before in my life, and the band that woke me up was an all female group dressed up as maids. Who would think that was for me? I thought I was a hard core metal fan, but I was wrong.
🤓 Hahaha - I was sure that someday 'nerd' would be used as a compliment! ;) You're right, dude. Nailed it. Fun and enjoyment! It's nice to have music like this to lift you right up without being overly cerebral but at the same time having obvious expertise/talent and sophistication in it's own right! I'm still only 3 songs in so far but I imagine the journey will continue!
@@JWSoundworks2 "Nerd" was meant as "someone who knows the deep stuff", and you are right again. You ain't heard nothing yet! You still only reacted to their old work. They are always moving effortless between styles and have evolved far and beyond this. In the new songs, they have taken back music as it was when hard rock/ metal was new and evolved it from there as they never heard what came after to end up in a new place. Then again, half of the new album is looking backwards. New style songs on YT: No God (studio live), old + new: Manners+Black Hole (studio live), In between: the MV "Warning!". There are so much in between where they stray of course and nail it in totally different styles: "Wonderland" live, "Daydreaming" MV or the love song to their fans during Covid: "About us" Studio live. Sorry for the long post! I'm drunk and don't have English as my first language!
@@nussekuddenxxx6564 :D haha it's all good, man! Thanks for the comments :)
That was enjoyable and informative JW. I may have only listened to this song 70-90 times (a small number compared to some!) but you have given me additional things to listen for in both this and other performances. Really happy with that. Cup of coffee coming your way soon.
Thanks, man! It's crazy to me to think that I can give some folk some new things to consider even after they've heard something so many times. That's great to hear, and thank you very much for your kind donation (just received!) 😎🤘🎸🎹
@@JWSoundworks2 Sometimes you just want to sit back and enjoy the song, not think too deeply - until someone comes along that can improve your enjoyment of that song and others that follows. Worth the time. Cheers.
Only 70-90 times Paul? lol
@@silentwood207 lol. Conservative estimate for Blooming and Conqueror. I came relatively late to Band Maid. I have catching up to do! ;)
Great reaction. I always appreciate a reactor who talks about the music instead of going " wow really cool lights". With Band Maid although they have really great MVs, it's about the music first. This is a band who is incredibly serious about fresh, new, different with every song.
Appreciate the kind words - thank you! :)
we may never have seen B-M bloom if it wasn't for "Thrill". It re-lit the fuse under the whole rock genre & went on to define B-M as the best Hard Rock band on the planet :)
I don't know if they're THE BEST for everyone everywhere, but they sure are for me, and that's good enough. For me anyways. ;)
@@crabuki1273 Same for me. See, I'm agreeing with you again. That's a good thing.👍
@@GaryHolloway-810 Yup, the best for me also. Absolute Best!
Thrill made me a blooming idiot for Band-Maid
@@GaryHolloway-810
"for me"
that's certainly right !
but they arrogantly don't allow it ❗️
Fun, exciting, and informative review/reaction. I love watching knowledgeable musician react to BAND-MAID and point out things I never noticed, or give more insight to the things I have. Helps put a few wrinkles in my mostly smooth brain. Cheers!
Thanks very much for that - glad to hear that you enjoyed it! :)
Towards the end, edge of your seat, "What's it gonna do? What's it gonna do???". Wonderful.
Your comment about the controlled feedback was awesome, did not pick up on that before.
Great analysis. This band does a great job of integrating vocals with the instruments. The integration of the second solo with the vocals is really pleasing. There's a spot where the harmonized vocals stop for a couple of seconds and the solo has a little flourish that fills that gap perfectly. It's one of the most pleasing little moments of a song I've ever heard.
Love to see you do more reaction and analysis for songs in their new album, the unseen world.
WOW!! I've been listening to this song since release, easily a 100+ times and i NEVER realised the feedback from the guitar at 16:48!
I'm actually shocked, HOW did I never acknowledge that??? It's like I didn't even hear it, that's so weird.
Well, thanks for pointing it out, one more thing to be astonished by in this song. Great reaction, dude! Loved it, hoping to see more Band-Maid!
It's called "the Band-Maid" effect, you get caught in the song and brain shuts down.
:D So many other great things going on at the same time!
The ‘feedback’ is called a ‘volume swell’ technically, fyi :)
@@ky9999 Good to know, thanks! :)
@@ToObs75 Kanami uses a volume pedal to control that effect so she can keep her fingers on the strings.
"I feel a smile comin' on" Yep. (Say it with me Maidiacs, you've read it from me a ton.) They're my anti-depressant of choice.
I think a big part of the appeal of this band is they've taken the role traditionally given to the bassist and assigned it to Miku at rhythm guitar. Miku follows the drums, she plays the simple underlying parts that hold the songs together. And her doing that allows MISA to dance all over the songs in places you just don't expect to hear bass. It's makes their sound so refreshing and allows them to keep one of their money players front and center in the songs.
Of course we want you to do more! :)
I'll have a shot of 100 G.G's of Crabuki anti-depressant. I don't need it but heck, i'm game :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 Here ya g... oh man, I'm sorry, that was Da Bomb hot sauce. It's an easy mistake, anyone could've made it.
I watched this video a month ago and just rewatch now and I think you are definitely one of the best music reactors on youtube right now! I have learned so much from you....
Thank you very much for the high praise! Been flat out recently but hope to get some more reactions filmed soon. 🤘
Really enjoyed your breakdown..thanks ..stay safe
♡Band Maid..
Cheers, Dave! :)
Nice!!! This was the very first B-M song that I heard awhile back!!! I probably replayed it a dozen times, trying to listen to everything that's going on. Made me an instant Maidiac!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘
And we're pleased you've been one ever since.👍
@@GaryHolloway-810 Thanks braddah, cheers🍺🍺🍺
Your incredibly detailed analysis win my subscribe. Great job. Bandmaid is going to save rock n' roll
i love how you walk us through their music... thanks!
Really great breakdown! Always appreciate your work. :) Another really lovely part of this composition is that those vocal harmonies you mentioned during the outro (with the 2nd guitar solo) were introduced in the bridge section and they're layering them on top of the chorus section. I love it when composers are able to recontextualize a riff or harmonies that way. It makes the whole piece seem so much more cohesive.
Edit: I don't know how many requests you'll get for this one, but I'd love to hear you breakdown their live video of Wonderland.
Thank you very much for your support - it means a lot! :)
Really enjoyed your reaction and your analysis. Appreciate the song from a new perspective with your input, thank you for that, these ladies always impress and put a smile on your face.
Appreciate the kind words, Doug. Thank you!
Many of Band-Maid's songs end with you wanting more. My favorite hard rock band, love every song. Thanks for the reaction, well done!
Brilliant intro!
Finally a true reaction with a ton of interesting information instead of those “wow amazing”reactions in most of the reaction channels.Thank you.
Appreciate that - thank you! 🤘
Please do not worry about breaking up the video - you are making great comments on the music and that's why we are here. MAIDIACS love to listen to videos like this. Thank you!
KANAMI is in fact classically trained in Piano. She writes the music on piano and acoustic guitar to start. KANAMI is also a fan of Carlos Santana. Quoting her here in an interview "When I compose, I don’t think much about the effects. I use it to enhance the songs I've already written live." I will also add that MISA and AKANE will make additions to the song as they compose together.
Is it really your first hearing?! It is so amazing that you can analyze what is going on so quickly and precise!!
I really like the 2 measures of bending w/wah before the tapping part, it's so cool.
I am very curious how you analyze "Wonderland". Beautiful song but of course, a lot of things going behind.
Live version is on their official site.
100% dude. If I've heard a song beforehand I'd title it a review/analysis instead of a reaction (although I may add a #reaction hashtag in the description section of the video to help it become more view-able/searchable within YT - if that makes sense). I've only done one like that on my channel so far, a Jeff Buckley song. My time for filming UA-cam reactions is very limited at the moment so I wouldn't have the time to sit and analyse a song beforehand and then film it. I also think it'd be pretty dishonest to present a video as a reaction if I'd already done that too, so I wouldn't. Haven't heard Wonderland yet. I shall add it to the list. Thanks for watching! :)
@@JWSoundworks2 oops, sorry didn't mean that I had any doubts, just got shocked. I didn't recognize the off-beat hi-hat until today and I've heard this more than 50 times. Many thanks for adding Wonderland to your list, will be waiting for it!!
@@Ratchy no problem at all, dude! I think it's a fair comment. Just thought I'd take the opportunity to address it incase anyone else is wondering how I go about doing these too 😊🤘
Wonderful reaction vid, always learning so much after you break things down. Your love of music is infectious. And that you love Band-Maid just makes it all even better. :)
Thank you for the kind words, dude!
Thanks JW! One of my favorite reactions of this song.
So glad you're back with Band Maid, and especially "Blooming".....one of my favorites, a true rock masterpiece. May I suggest the rock/funk groove of "Manners" (official music Video) from their latest album. There is a new released LIVE stream version but I feel the MV is a much better watch. I'd watch that one first before the live version.
Definitely have to do more Band-Maid! :)
Perfect song composition and development.
Amazing.👍🎵
I am an older rock lover and found new joy in Band-Maid.
Your opinion that they are a throwback to the 70s and 80s (even 90s) with a modern twist is right on. This is why I enjoy their music. It's new and nostalgic at same time. You are in my top 5 reactors. Your insight makes me appreciate BM more. I was impressed that you immediately picked up the 5/4 time change in Onset. Others reactors sensed the change but were not courageous enough to identify it. Please do more BM reactions. I'm sure Maidiacs will fill up your channel.
Great reaction. I really like how you go through the different parts again. I got a new view on certain bits of the song. Thank you.
And I wondered why I have not subbed yet. Now its done !
Thanks dude! Glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
Great analysis again. Placing you solidly in the list of reactors that actually contribute to the discussion instead of just saying "WOW". Eagerly looking forward to more of your reactions. Next up for you I think, should be Warning, the official M/V from their channel. (There is also a live official version if you want to compare/contrast).
Thank you for the kind words Matt!
I think, non-ironically, that this is the current pinnacle of catchy rock songwriting. A 3-4 minute rock song in the standard structure gets enriched by details that absolutely did not need to be there, but they are there and make it better. The songwriting is clearly done by someone who knows an awful lot about the history of popular music, and takes the best elements from a very diverse range of subgenres and time periods - that encyclopedic music nerd is Kanami Tono. And thanks to the other very talented members of the band, she can afford to write crazy stuff, but still catchy. BTW, live they play to a click track... except for MISA the bass player, who plays by ear, and also barefoot so that she can feel the kick drum. She's an alien.
She has noted that she has many senior mentors that guided her early on and probably still give her feedback.
Nice summary. Takin' notes for my next "why you should be listening to Band-Maid" elevator speech 🙂
@@philcalvino884 Please make many such speeches. Band-Maid are criminally unknown and underappreciated.
Your reactions are always great brother. I discovered the Maids about 4 years ago. Listened to everything on their official. Best rock and roll band in the world! Thanks for playing them! 😊😎🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
One of my favorite outros in a Band-Maid song.
I never get tired of reactors educating me about why I end up liking and repeatedly listening to the songs I like. Beats watching people just say "oh wow, cool song" any day. Thank you for your analysis and effort!
Just love how tight they play. Obviously a lot of practise and working out how to keep listeners on there toes.
Band Maid are highly dosed musical antidepressants and as addictive 😂
Yes more BAND MAID please....lovely tech comments...
Like a beautiful flower Band-Maid blooms.
Sorry for being late to this review but I needed to thank you for your insights into this song. As a musician myself, I think I can hear more in songs than most; however, not all. And you highlighted so many fascinating things in the songwriting and production that I’ve missed.
Akane’s disco beats (I’ve heard the same in songs like Freezer)
The violining Kanami adds in the breakdown. Misa’s added flavor during the solo.
Well done review. Thank you!
More please. Thanks JW!
A smiling coming on, that’s a symptom of becoming a madiac. You will see it happens more and more often as you see abs hear more of them. Enjoy the journey.
As I'm not a big fan of energy drinks myself, I'm glad to have found a much better alternative with this song. At the latest during the solo I'm wide awake again. :)
You're already the second person I've seen today who uses classical music as an explanation for the girls' song structure. Since I also like classical music very much from time to time, an approach that has already crossed my mind too. Maybe, or I'm almost sure, this is the point where you can tell that some of them have a training in classical music.
Thank you for another very good review. Again, some very interesting explanations that really helps me, as a non-musician, appreciate this song/their music and what these ladies create even more than I already did before. For me, these are musical works of art.
Greetings! 🙋🏻♂️
【 'Our rock never dies ever. Forever!' - from BAND-MAID 'Manners' 】🕊️
Thank you very much for the kind words and great info. I was classically trained on piano from a young age and I teach classical piano as my profession so it's very obvious to me that there's serious musical understanding and wide-ranging knowledge within the band, and that's on top of their outrageously impressive playing-abilities. Superb band! :)🤘
@@JWSoundworks2 Yeah, the fact that the ladies have a very fine sense of how to make a song interesting or where to add extra details at certain points is something that I also noticed over time with their music and that I started to love quite quickly. I have to admit that for the first 2-3 songs I had no focus on that at all, but the songs appealed to me in a way that many others from this genre simply haven't for several years. That's when I started looking for why this is so and became aware of a few details, such as the fact that their second verse is always musically different from the first. Unfortunately, I don't have the musical background for many of the smaller or more subtle details, and that's why I'm grateful for explanations like yours that help me.
Perhaps at this point I can also recommend a song by these ladies that might interest you. The title 'Alone' is their first completely self-written song, which their label gave the OK to put on the album at that time. This was back in 2016, and it was the only self-written song on the album. But already on the following, they wrote all the songs themselves. They must have done something right. :)
@@phaeron I shall duly ad it to the list - thanks for the recommendation! :)
Great analysis! I like hearing a song I love with new ears 😋
Try Daydreaming. Really lovely Ballard but still with all the classic BANDMAID song writing hallmarks. One of my top 5 for sure.
That's why MISA is called the Barefoot assassin...her bass playing is killer
Glad to see some legit analysis in a reactor vs just pure shock factor. Subbed right away. Super refreshing, and Band-Maid is a fucking KILLER group to listen to. Absolutely prime re-imagining of classic hard rock ideas to fit in a modern setting.
If you wanna do a double feature that really showcases their extremes of their compositional and stylistic range, hit up the Manners/Black Hole live video for J-Lod that just came out recently. It's absolutely unparalleled.
Great reaction and analysis man! This is Y i mean WHY we love this hard working maids on their music. No laziness at all.
man i never noticed the high pitched feedback/violin parts til now.
the ending downward progression is a flip on the upwards from the intro. the band has never used a fade-out to end a song.. just one of many reasons why i love em
More&more&more please analysis this Band Maid Dr Fraud :D It was really enjoyable.
Yes thank you! "Blooming" is my favorite BAND-MAID song :)
As I suggested in your "Hypa Hypa" video, please check out BAND-MAID live double feature "Manners + BLACK HOLE" ;)
Super feel-good, high energy track, this one. Loved it!
@@JWSoundworks2 def agree w/ 2abug: pls do a reax to the live vid for Manners/Black Hole... feel like you'd really enjoy breaking down each song which showcases the Maids' abilities in different styles of rock, one a soulful groove and the other a hypersonic thrill ride; while i enjoy the MV for Manners, i prefer the mix in the live ver of Manners where MISA just shines
Great reaction/analysis as always. Would love to see a reaction to Play (live) or Dice. But really hard to go wrong with most anything.
If you mean the 2020 version of "Play" then it'd be great to see what he thinks of Miku getting to spread her wings :)
Thank you, dude!
Great analysis.....enjoy your channel......This band has absolutely got me excited about music again....like you have stated...the musicianship is top notch!!!!!! Would really like to see you review a couple of amazing songs....Real Existance and the new MV From Now On.....The second being an instrumental......will demonstrate just how far this band has progressed in writing and musicianship.
Another great informative reaction/breakdown, I always discover something new about a song or learn something!
Thank you so much for your support, Tom! You're a legend! :)
Another reactor today had the same comparison to classical influence in the composition from a Hip Hop perspective.not surprised from Kanamis background.
I always enjoy watching your detailed explanation videos.
I'd like to request another Japanese band, "Unlucky Morpheus - Carry on singing to the sky".
I would like to request
It's a tribute to Andre Matos, with some classical music mixed in.
Thanks again for the video. From Japan
(I used a machine translation, so I apologize if the text comes out wrong.)

親切な言葉をありがとうございました。私のリストやリクエストにあなたの推薦を追加します！そのバンドのことは聞いたことがないので、チェックしてみてはいかがでしょうか！🤘
@@JWSoundworks2
Hooray for machine translation!
Thank you so much!
That's a great suggestion, Unlucky Morpheus is one of my top bands for their creativity, technical skills and Fuki (goddess of voice).
Once again JW, informative and enjoyable. Sorry to repeat Paul below but no other words came to mind.
Appreciate the kind words - thank you very much!
Kanami never has the same verse!
I greatly appreciate and enjoy your reactions and analysis to this band! Please keep them coming! Also, would love to see you look at The Warning (Evolve or Choke).
Thanks Jason!

Cheers dude, thank you!
Yes more
Fantastic reactions JW.. Seen all three of your Band maids.. Looking forward to your next one... Different, Turn me on, Without holding back, Rinne... Hint hint.. Best wishes from France..
Thank you, dude ! 🤘
Have you realized the outro is the intro but in reverse? It's awesome
Realised that when I was editing the video for UA-cam. Clever stuff!
want more(inside joke) +1 lol. enjoyed it!
That beautiful vocal breakdown tone/harmony sounds like The Corrs...can't think if it's a particular song I'm reminded of. Can't be bothered tracking it down...can't tear myself away from Band-Maid :-)
TOTALLY get you on that reference. Nice catch!
@@JWSoundworks2 It was driving me mad...I think I've found the tonal match that lurked at the back of my mind. Comparing 15:53 with the following...maybe speed x1.5 is more like maid tempo... ua-cam.com/video/-8p9yAl5-v0/v-deo.html
@@philproffitt8363 😂😂 dude, I can so relate to this. Sometimes I can't go to bed at night until I've "found the answer" hahaha. Nice one! I've noticed it runs on one side of my family too. I sat for about an hour yesterday trying to remember the name of some old thrash band I downloaded a few songs of in like 2001. I went through every letter of the alphabet hoping it would kick me off on the right track but I couldn't do it. It's gone! 😳
@@JWSoundworks2 Well I found my answer so I CAN go to bed...and dream of Andrea Corr :-))
"they could have just kept it straight..." BUT THEY DIDN'T. that's band-maid. doing band-maid stuff.
thank you for a very insightful look at these ladies' craft.
Took one of my favorite songs from 4 minutes to 22! Thank you!
MISA MISA MISA!
Band Maid in full bloom! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
Really nice break down!! Thanks!
I rarely comment or subscribe. But now I do both. You pointed out some details in the song that I haven’t found after many listens. I look forward to the next Band Maid analysis.
they have yet to top this masterpiece...
BLOOMING is my fav BM song, suggest Davdreaming MV next, and will get to supporting your channel in a couple days. MAIDIAC I am. BTW Kanami writes all the music, was classcally trained, and it shows. Miku writes lyrics.
Thanks for the info, Kevin! I will surely do more Band-Maid in the future! :)
Thank you for the excellent analysis. I only recently found Band-Maid and your analysis really helped me understand why I'm so drawn in by their musical compositions. Look forward to more Band-Maid analysis by you since their songs genre hops so much from song to song and sometimes even within a song and still have that amazing feel good Band-Maid vibe.
Their writing skills are spectacular and always bring a huge smile to my face. So dense and compact, more info per song than anyone I can think of. (some jazz rock fusion is like that too). The end of the guitar solo is harmonics faded in with a volume control I believe. It would be easier to pull off live anyway.
Thanks for that..
it was great!
I even got up 1/2 way through to tell my wife about it..
I received the *you nerd look* 😀
I'd love to hear your take on The Manners, Black Hole official video. Recently released!!
🤘🤘🤘
Non musicians fans, it's me.
Rock music fans
Instruments players fans
Musician fans
Sound engineer fans
You're absolutely professional.
Thanks 👍😊
BAND-MAID do use In-Ear Monitors and Backing Tracks, heavily, but they don't have to. The computer got lost by the Airlines but the show went on. They were more worried about the sneakers they had bought in L.A. They are also fans of Classic Rock and Alternative, so that just a couple of their many influences. They are Musician's Musicians. Since you did 'Domination' LIVE you probably noticed the band gathering around the drums, making faces, trying to make Akane laugh and throw her off of the Backing Tracks on the hard part of the song. Not a chance!
The outro is the intro backwards!
That's the longest solo KANAMI has ever done.She doesn't do long solos
Good reaction and analysis !! Hope next Band Maid - No God Live Online Oykuji 😁👍
Great analysis man! Loved the video! Keep it up with Band-Maid, you'll love the rest of their stuff! Just pick one, lol. MV or Live, they're all awesome. Don't just gravitate to the Live!
wow man, that intro is pretty sick, do you have a full version? got massive Opeth vibes from that
Not as of yet, dude. I wrote it just as a channel intro. I do have more original music on my bandcamp though (my op. 3 album has proggy instrumental vibes throughout). Appreciate the kind words! Thank you!

If you scroll back through Kanami's Instagram feed she had a video posted on Feb 7 2020 where she plays the tapping section of the solo very slowly so you can really see what she's doing with it.
I love when reactors bring some knowledge to the table. And you should do what works for you. First time on your channel i like it so far. 🙂
Moar! Terrific breakdown. Thanks!
The only other Rock band I know that are good as band maid for using space to allow the song to breathe is iron Maiden.
Could you do video or serie of short videos title Classical Music for MetalHeads...?
That's an interesting idea. Maybe down the line sometime! 🤘
Just subscribed sir. Are you and Jack at JBF related or go to the same school?
That was Blooming good, thanks !
Daydreaming please.
Band Maid makes us happy.
You gave many Madiacs a “Thrill” when you associated Kanami’s composition with the music of Beethoven!
time to revisit Band Maid - what about 'from now on' (instrumental)
Really interesting and thoughtful analysis as always. I really look forward to your videos.
Many fans of Band-Maid also love The Warning who are 3 sisters from Mexico. They bring a new spin to classic rock and much of your comments on this video could apply to The Warning as well. Their latest single, which is from their upcoming 3rd album, was released a few weeks ago. It's called Evolve and is high energy and has a couple of cool riffs, including one in 7/4 time. Many of us who grew up with rock from the 70s. 80s and 90s really appreciate this new version of a classic sound.
Thank you for the info and kind words! I haven't heard anything from The Warning yet.
@@JWSoundworks2 You're very welcome. I really love reactors with musical knowledge, be they instrumentalists or vocalists. It's always interesting to see a professional take.
As for The Warning, all I can say is that if you react to them, then the Warning Army will descend. ;)
Their intro immediately put me in mind of NOFX. Lots of Punk/ Pop Punk vibes in here. Also parts of it reminds me of very early Paramore (mainly the chorus).
nice reaction💕👍
