Before "Alone" Band-Maid was known as a good band. But when they wrote and recorded "Alone" they became known as great songwriters.

This is my favorite Kanami solo by far! I actually got to hear and see it live about 10 feet from my melted face! I have the video to prove it! These ladies are saviors of modern day rock! ❤️🎼🤘🏽😎🌏

The fact that this band isn't dominating all the charts globally kinda shows how out of touch (perhaps willfully, for whatever reason) the abysmal music industry really is. Not only are they amazing songwriters and musicians, but they do it all without the typical gratuitous sex appeal that sadly most female music talent is almost always required to offer. Ironically, that kind of makes them all the more attractive and appealing, imho. This is exactly the kind of band that people should want their daughters looking up to and taking inspiration from. Talented, disciplined, creative, hard working, and they do it all on their own terms. Rare to find a band that is not only incredibly awesome but also great role models at the same time.

Alone is one of three Band-Maid videos I have been watching in rotation since the beginning of September. Thrill and Alone for their historical context. Their 1st video (and the one that got them noticed) and 1st all Band-Maid only song, and Chemical Reaction because I just really love it. I don't think it gets enough credit for being such a great rocker. I probably watch these 3 videos 15 or more times each day during the week, and many more times on the weekends. Just to spice things up a bit, I throw Shambles into the mix every so often. These 5 young musicians are the best. I cut my musical teeth on the British invasion groups of the sixties, and then fell in love with the hard rock hay day of the eighties and early nineties. Band-Maids music brings back so many wonderful memories for me. I hope they have many more years of awesome music ahead of them, and for us the fans.

It's easy. I don't watch music. I listen to. I don't see who is playing the instruments (I know now). Bands with a girl in front? A lot. So what's up? Good rock music and I listen to the records because they are very good. My attention only started on KZread (watching and been astonished) so good marketing.

Agree, we dont listen with our eyes, we got stuff for that, when I originally picked up on BM about 4-5 years ago it was off the back of Spotify playlists, tracks just kept coming up and I kept liking them, after a few weeks I went and found out about what I was hearing, I have to say that had I seen them before I listened I probably would not (to my shame) have given them the chance (due to the whole maid thing) but happily I heard them first. Have had similar in the past where I would look at a band and think "If had not heard you before seeing you....." so its a hard and fast rule for me now, we see with our eyes, but we do no hear with them, we got stuff for that. Its sorta human nature but its a crap part of it - though tbf, how often to music companies try to sell an act with looks rather than talent - pretty often so i suppose its wise to keep some level of suspicion (or lets call it balance) when viewing bands

Listening to Band-maid's songs is like meeting a beloved old friend.

Akane has an amazing attack, so precise and most amazing of all she doesn't "click the rims" like a lot of drummers do when they play fills. Everything is precise and even. Many drummers favor one hand over the other and you can also notice that on the fills making for an uneven beat but Miss Metronome here freeking nails it with even strokes. I would put her in the category of top female drummers who happens to be better than a lot of male drummers. Regardless, she is one of my top five rock drummers of all time and that is going up against some really tough competition. The whole band together makes for some of the most perfect, butt kicking rock and roll I have ever heard in 53 years of listening to rock and roll and playing drums. I really can't say enough about these amazing ladies, they will only get better in the upcoming years. Seeing them is on my bucket list that is for sure!

Yeah, I should have added the fact that she is solid with the foot work too, her use of the Roland multplier is perfect and makes for an incredibly precise and even double bass drum beat which is almost impossible to duplicate with twin kickers due to phyisiological challenges for most drummers. It is hard to make an apple for apple comparison of drummers just as there is for guitarists but let me end with this, Akane is a natural drummer, she is just made for the drums and has obviously an amazing natural talent. Anyone can beat on the drums but do they have natural rhythm and timing? Akane does with no struggle whatsoever whereas some drummers are at the furthest reaches of their technical abilities and it shows. Akane will only get better and will not have to extend herself to do it. I would love to sit down with her and discuss her influences and technique but until then I will be happy to just listen.

@@markhunter8554 I think another album or two later they peaked, and this is still my favorite song. That being said, they still make amazing songs, and one or two in their newest albums never cease to amaze me. Overall I think 2016-2018 was my favorite sound overall.

RIP Hat, your struggle to perform your base function of staying on the head will never be forgotten

To the 458 people that downvoted this: what the hell is wrong with you? It should get a like for the guitar solo alone!

I bet they didn't like how Akane-san destroy that drum. By didn't like = jealous

Good one. Check " Band- Maid Alone comiccon 2016" and you will see how amazing Akane is.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KANAMI !!!!! 🥳❤❤🍰🍰☕🎂🎂

Kanami makes the expression "you play like a girl "sound like a compliment...

All of them do.

このギターソロ🎸は、日本のロック史上に残る凄まじいソロです。 ハードロックがマイノリティになってしまって残念だけど... あと4、50年早ければみんなの記憶に残るギターソロになっていたでしょう。みんちょの才能に感謝です！

May be the best song to showcase Band Maid to people who don't know them 🥰😎

How the hell aren't they already mainstream and famous around the world? I just found them yesterday here on YT and their talent is freaking insane O_O

After listening to this song I am wondering the same thing. They are an impressive group of beautiful and very talented ladies.

If you haven't yet, look for their live concerts. They are even better live. Amazing!

@@davidbourhenne8540 I haven't yet. Still "stucked" in their pv's/musicvideos atm. xD I recently looked up, where they're touring. They were here in Germany at the end of last year and obviously i'm "mad" now that i "found" them so late^^

このバンドのカッコ良さは見せるために作られたものじゃなくてにじみ出てきてるカッコ良さだと思うんですよね。匠のそれ。 今からも良くなっていくので楽しみに応援していきましょう。

なぜ今まで知らなかった

The smartest thing this band ever did (well, Kanami, I think) was getting Miku playing rhythm guitar instead of hiring a skilled player. Miku plays basic barre chord Johnny Ramone style punk rock guitar, and it gives Kanami room to do what she does without the song losing anything. Most bands of skilled musicians would never think to do that, and was a genius move. Sometimes I see morons whining about Miku not being talented enough, but what she does is perfect for the songs, and those people are completely clueless about why this band sounds so good.

Similar rol on stage as Malcom Young. Angus was a beast but he could reach higher over the shoulders of his brother. In many things Band Maid remembers me AC/DC

Compared to early days, Miku is a good rhythm guitarist. No gripes from me.

Doesn't Miku do a lot of the lyrics anyway?

Ah.... The nostalgia. Saiki still with her apron, Misa with wavy hair, Mincho with straight hair, Akane still with her little hat, and Miku doesn't change a bit (except her guitar skill, she's now a rhythm monster).

「メジャーデビュー！！」って。インディーズだったことに今、気がついた alone はメンバー自身の作詞・作曲で評価されていることが 大きいし嬉しい

This is my favorite Kanami solo. It's a light of hope in the middle of a dark, emotional, and depressing song. Tugs on all the right heartstrings.

My favourite is the improvised one she did in Hamburg (search for "Kanami goes wild. Hamburg 26/06/2019"). A guitar player who absolutely loves to play guitar.
