Bob, welcome back to Lovebites. Yes, Asami's powerful and broad mid-to-high mezzo-soprano range allows her to soar above Lovebites' extremely fast-paced and heavy licks/riffs with ease in order to provide the melodic contrast which makes their sound very unique. This was one of the reasons that drew me to the band in the first place.

You're right about Haruna. The size/appearance speed/power contrast is just mind-blowing. But I don't think it would be Lovebites without Miyako's compositional genius either. And nobody is going to ever replace Asami's grace and power. And maybe...maybe they could find a guitarist as good as Midori...but how could it possibly be as good? How could you replace the duet guitar solos, or the muscles, or the animal energy? And then they created the perfect super-smile attached to a super bassist, and it was the perfect 5th Element, Fami. I know they found her via a huge world-wide audition, but if they created the perfect bassist for the band it would have been Fami anyway. No, this is synergy. They start with musicians talented enough to form a super group...but the sum total is even greater than the additive aspect of their talents. And I don't think you could take ANY of them away, they are a unit. Very special.

@@Trollificusv2 There is some truth in what you're saying. Asami's vocals fit them perfectly. As I have said in other reactions, Midori is about speed & Miyako is about feel.

I am so glad you mentioned Haruna and her cymbal work. So many drummers today, cymbals are just something extra to play with. Haruna, is a master at proper cymbal work. Very precise strikes on them. Not to hard not to soft, perfect placement. She doesn't over play the rest of the band. Fami is such a joy to watch. Her smile is so contagious. Seeing Asami and Miyako approach her during the song. Just her natural personality brings so much to the band. Asami said in their bassist audition documentary as soon as Fami entered the studio for her audition the atmosphere began to sparkle. That was before she even plugged in. During a band interview earlier this year, in response to Fami saying she want to improve her skills, Asami said "I'm just being realistic. Fami is growing up too fast, I don't want us to be left behind."

Hi, many thanks for repeating my quote about Fami and Asami at the end of your post, I try and slip it in wherever I can when it seems relevant. My other favourite quote from that same interview in GekiRock is Fami saying: "I'm really looking forward to seeing the audience's reaction live. Up until now, I've only done videos on KZfaq, so I've only had the chance to get feedback in text on a 16:9 screen. I'm very happy to be able to do that, because I've never been able to actually perform in the three-dimensional world.": I love that phrase ".... perform in the three-dimensional world." A true child of the virtual digital age. I love her. Followed her for years and was very happy when she joined Lovebites.
@Patrick_H. 9 ай бұрын
I love the way she made it easier to get the 'bell' sound at the speed she plays by putting the Zyl-bell on top of her Ride cymbal. No way she can miss that 'bell'! I've grown tired of mentioning that when Reactors mention her use of the 'bell on the ride' - if only they paid more attention. :0) BTW - I was looking at the original 2017 Shadowmaker MV and Haruna was only using 7 cymbals. Her current setup has 14 cymbals.

Midori(G) [ESP E-II Horizon FR QM Purple]. Midori's guitar looks "purple" in the live video. Original color not in the catalog. The quilted maple grain is beautifully visible through the purple see-through paint. Pickups were replaced with gold humbuckers. Pickups are Seymour Duncan, SH-1n '59 model in the front and SH-15 Alternative 8 in the rear. Other metal parts were also changed to gold. [ESP E-II Horizon FR QM Reindeer Blue]. The above guitar has been used mainly in past live performances and music videos (such as "Glory to the World"). The original pickups were replaced with silver humbuckers, which were replaced with gold humbuckers a few years ago. Other metal parts were also replaced with gold, Midori's favorite color. Pickups are Seymour Duncan, with an SH-1n in the front and an SH-15 in the rear. [ESP E-II Horizon FR Black]. This guitar is mainly used for recording. Sometimes used for live performance depending on the song. For Drop D tuning, used in "Bravehearted," "Stand And Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)," "Shadowmaker," "Break The Wall," "Judgement Day," and "Glory To The World". Black HORIZON used in "Bravehearted", "Stand And Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)", "Break The Wall", "Judgement Day", "Glory To The World", etc. It has almost the same specs as the above purple model, but a different front pickup (Seymour Duncan Sentient) was selected. Pickups are Seymour Duncan, Sentient in the front and SH-15 in the rear. [ESP FRX E-II SW Solid Body Snow White] The bridge and other metal parts were replaced with gold. Pickups were replaced with EMG "88". The above guitar has been used by Midori since the days of her former band "Gekijo★Metallic"("激情★めたりっちぇ") and was also used when she joined LOVEBITES. It is also used in the music videos and live performances of "Don't Bite The Dust," "The Crusade," "The Shadowmaker," and "Rising.

What do you feel under the darkness? I search for light that I have never seen, Stare inside, I know it's somewhere Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight This is the beginning They will not see me surrender Bringing back memories I'll never let it go Now is the time we'll never forget Nameless warrior Hide the light that I found in my path I call it ''faith'' for now That is all left for me Shivering, too afraid of the night but I believe myself This is up to me [!] The truth and lies are in the mirror I search for light that I have never seen Stare inside, I know it's somewhere Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight This is the beginning They will not see me surrender Take my hand, I'll be there and never let it go Now is the time we'll never forget Nameless warrior No time for looking in past now Fears vanishing into the sky... SOLOs: Broken piece of a soul Never heal in the rain And will there be end to this? Flaming up inside of me Giving me insanity The memories fading in my head and now I'm fallin' SOLO: both What do you feel under the darkness? I search for light that I have never seen Stare inside, I know it's somewhere Taking step the way I believe Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight This is the beginning They will not see me surrender Bringing back memories I'll never let it go Now is the time we'll never forget Nameless warrior ----- lyrics: asami music: asami, midori, miyako, haruna & Mao album: In The Beginning 2017 - 2021

I’m proud to have been in that hall on that evening. To come back after two years, complete with a new member playing as if she’d been there from the beginning, and to come back playing better than ever, singing better than ever is testament to the incredible amount of work LOVEBITES puts into their performances. They had rehearsed for several weeks, and have a couple of complete run through’s before each new tour or set. Asami and Fami were fit to burst with pure joy. They all deserve the plaudits heaped upon them, and then some. Having been a fan almost three years, the release of this song to coincide with the release of “In the beginning” at the end of 2021 told me all I needed to know about what we had in store once they were back up and running. They had already begun to play some pretty complex stuff on the Glory Glory to the World EP, and this took that progression a step further. I thought then, and am sure now that this song was a statement of intent. I have a tiny observation, but I’m not claiming it as fact. Midori plays a solo just before the first guitar “duet”. On the original, that too is a duet, but with Miyako playing synth of some kind. Here she just played rhythm whilst Midori had centre stage. So, when the second “duet” is over, and Asami is closing the last verse, Miyako has stayed at the top of the steps after Midori has stepped down, and does some great, bluesy improvisation for about 30 seconds. “My turn”! I enjoy you enjoying LOVEBITES enjoying performing.

The music video for this song was uploaded after the band's founder and leader, Miho (bass), left the band and LOVEBITES announced that they were going on hiatus. The video footage used their footsteps that they had been running through for about five years from their first stage to Live in Tokyo 2021, as well as a strong message that "we will be back. It must have been deeply moving for them to be able to perform this song at this revival concert after a two-year absence.

Lovebites - Hammer of Wrath lyrics (they have it right, all the wicked will perish) What's the worst way to die? Burning to death, or drowning? Everyone laughs in derision There's no hope at all Why is the world rotting away? Howling in pain, they slowly die All of the sorrow is murderous The insanity They're calling me (Burn up) It's do or die (Burn up) Get ready for hell (Bring down justice to the wicked) Don't look away from the mistakes Open your eyes, and see the truth When lightning cracks the blackened sky Listen to the screams of distress It's like a bad dream but it's not No way to get out, a living nightmare Bring down the hammer of wrath Who will be the next to burn? God only knows the victim Everyone knows they are innocent All the hope is gone In despair they pass away There was no hope to begin with Even the angels are giving up Looking down on us Will this night ever break dawn? (Bring down justice to the wicked) What's the worst way to die? Burning to death or drowning? Everyone laughs in derision There's no hope at all Why is the world rotting away? Howling in pain, they slowly die All of the sorrow is murderous The insanity They're calling me (Burn up) It's do or die (Burn up) Get ready for hell (Bring down justice to the wicked) Don't look away from the mistakes Open your eyes, and see the truth When lightning cracks the blackened sky Listen to the screams of distress It's like a bad dream but it's not No way to get out, a living nightmare Bring down the hammer of wrath Bring down the hammer of wrath

Thank you so much for reacting to Lovebites again! I highly appreciate your focus on artistic abilities. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and appreciation with us. 2:10 (and so many more times): Thank you for honoring Haruna's art so repeatedly! Being a drummer myself (leisure time), I have a "special eye" on her art. I just adore it. She not only _commands_ her drumset, but she is also so incredibly _versatile_ in terms of music styles! She can play sensitive parts ("Epilogue") as convincingly and appropriate, as she beats the "sh....ampoo" out of her drumset (with all engines at full speed) in Speed Metal songs. And she does it so effortlessly! Always the reliable pacegiver, against all odds, in the studio and in live shows! I strongly assume that she has a built-in metronome. 😁She is a one-off. 5:54 9:23 *Iconic* M&M duets again. You are left watching in disbelieve and awe. 10:11 (and following): All Lovebites engines running at full volume and speed 😁 "Yes, *ladies* , give it to us!" 😂 🤘 🐺

I'm not even sure how to comment on this one. When Nameless Warrior first came out, it was one of the first songs of LBs that I did not like. Something about the excessive usage of alternate picking and the melody. So, I still don't like the song, lol, but I can appreciate the talent the group displays in playing it. As you mentioned, Haruna kind of keeps everything in order. Without her runs, fills, and continuous double kicks the band's sound would be far different. Asami does seem to have stronger vocals though I have noticed she seems to sing a bit lower at times. Anyways, musicianship is great, and as always the guitar soli is great, although maybe not quite as complex as many people find them. You have to play at the level of the weakest musician, similar to how the old cavalry was only as fast as the slowest horse. Overall it is a terrific song, and they pushed it some in this newer live version. Fami fits well, but to date she really has not had the opportunity to display more of her talent vs. Miho since all the songs were composed pre-Fami. No doubt though that she has brought a new level of excitement to the band.

Hey Guy, These ladies are still new to me so I’m blown away every chance I hear them. The do display several techniques for picking. I guess I don’t mind thr double licking so much since I know band musicians who use double tongueing to get through tough musical passages. I’ve never been one to do it but it is a skill some can master and sound good. As long as it works and sounds good it’s all good with me. You are right about Fami. I don’t think we have seen what she is really capable of yet. Just little snippets. My guess is the next album she will be a bigger part of what they do and she will get a chance to shine.

@@bobcieslinski They are an amazing band, especially since each member is practically a prodigy. They use alternate picking in most of their songs as it contributes to the speed of play.

Nameless Warrior was never released on any album other than being added to the greatest hits album by the Lovebites corporation and is also sold as a single. Since it was done live on this DVD/CD it has become more widely known. They are world class musicians, top notch and it doesn't get any better than this band, a few other Japanese bands are good but most of them aren't really that good. Unlucky Morpheus to me is only good because of Jill, I am a huge fan of violinists and Celloists, but the singer Fuki I can deal without, I prefer Marina of Mardelas so much better at singing to me.

I could never understand how people could say Asami had too much vibrato in her vocals and not say anything about Fuki's vocals. The vibrato is so over the top with Fuki that she is totally unlistenable to me and the main reason I don't listen to UM.

The only thing that bothers me about this version, is that the backing vocals are on tape, instead of having the other gals doing them (which they can do).

I wonder why they did that.

I hope you will listen to The Lovebites EP. It contains the original, Japanese version of BRAVEHEARTED. I think ASAMI sounds even better, much better singing in her native language, and I would like to hear your thoughts.

I’ll check it out Greg.

LOVEBITES "Nameless Warrior" Music Video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m9dihctmzbO0g4k.html released on November 16th, 2021, 3 months after Miho's withdrawal, is a video retrospective/homage to their initial 5 years, from Miho's idea formed in 2016 with images throughout their development, beginning before the name "LOVEBITES" was chosen from the 2013 Grammy Winning Halestorm song, "Love Bites (so do I)". Earliest performances in Japan & London, UK & winning Metal Hammer's "Best New Band" worldwide in 2018, just 6-months after their first full album release, signified by the Wolf (their symbol) biting the 'golden apple'. Tours to China, visiting the "Great Wall", European performances at Wacken (1st all-women Japanese band) & Bloodstock, (chosen from 120+ bands to fill Main Stage vacancy), and November 2019 UK Tour opening for & joining DragonForce onstage, 11 gigs in 13 days (!) 6000 miles from home. The 'cov!d era' shattered plans for extensive tours, disruptions coupled with shock of Miho losing her father (at 49 years) led to her withdrawal while 2 other members married & had children. "Nameless Warrior" is their only release that includes embedded lyrics, and in both English (as sung) and the Japanese translation simultaneously, indicating the importance of the 'story' they are telling us with this Music Video. This LIVE performance with Fami is the fulfillment of the promises to "never forget" their origins & their founder & leader from concept thru formation, development & composing/arranging & performances bringing international recognition, as well as "This is the beginning"... Here is a 'fan upload' of this LIVE performance with [cc] lyrics kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pqdjYK6JtbTMhoE.html You might notice Fami's more somber expression during the 'breakdown' vocal passages (4;10 MV / 9;05 this vid) and seriousness of aspects of this story. This, as with so much of LOVEBITES' catalogue of performances, expresses their sincerity & the story-telling aspect of their music & lyrics. 🐺 dreg👁
