This was one of their early songs. It is a tribute to Iron Maiden, modelled after "Aces High". Lovebites have stated the Maiden were one of their major influences. The crazy thing is that this "tribute" actually surpasses the old masters, especially with Haruna's insane performance on drums. Thanks for finally checking this out!

Great reaction to one of my fav Lovebites songs !

This is not "straight up thrash". This is straight-up: IRON MAIDEN! 🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼

TEMAZO‼️🤘🏻LOVEBITES FOREVER 🐺🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Awesome review Shorecat.

Another great reaction to another great LOVEBITES song. This reminds me of an Iron Maiden song from Powerslave. In their beginning they performed a secret concert under the name Powerslaves. The funny thing is that they did not perform any Maiden songs that time. LOVEBITES pulled a fast one on their fan base by releasing Eagle Fly Free by Helloween and Painkiller by Judas Priest covers instead of Maiden. Maybe some other time they will cover Maiden. Miyako's upcoming EP contains piano versions of other metal greats. She also revived her KZfaq channel recently. There's a lot of great stuff coming from her. LOVEBITES is known for playing their own great original music live. They are playing better live music than some of my favorite classic metal bands these days. Peace and LOVEBITES!!! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺

LOVEBITES - The Crusade lyrics: Walking in shadows, immersed in deception While hiding our agony, faking a smile Pulling the trigger to lose my religion All of the truth ends up murdered by lies Dancing with demons, they seem to be fond of me Let’s start the ritual for the revenge Pulling the trigger to burn non-believers Being the odd one out drives me insane I’m a fool in disguise You’d never realize Found myself in its song Where else would I belong? Break free Fight to live on, forever strong Break free Heart made of steel, show me what’s real Deep down My heartbeat and blood burning with love Deep down It’s time to begin the crusade Wanting an answer, but losing myself While I’m hiding my anger behind empty smiles Pulling the trigger to punish the traitors All of your words were just nothing but lies Crawling in chaos, I’m losing my breath, tell me What do you see through your sinister eyes? Pulling the trigger to kill the oppressors I had no choice but to hide when I cried Found myself in its song Where else would I belong? Break free Always believe, hope is the key Break free Heart made of steel, knight of ordeal Deep down Destroy the restraints, never again Deep down It’s time to begin the crusade SOLO: midori / miyako Break free Fight to live on, forever strong Break free Heart made of steel, show me what’s real Deep down My heartbeat and blood burning with love Deep down Be true to yourself and your beliefs It’s time to get up and breath ----- lyrics: miho music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) album: Battle Against Damnation EP 06/06/2018

LOVEBITES tribute to “Aces High” by Iron Maiden 🎸🔥🤘

Happy New Year from the Wolfpack!! 🤘🐺

Midori the dive bomb queen forsure., great song and reaction.... 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺💪🤘🤘🤘🤘

🤘

One I recently heard. I didn't know what album it was on. I need to start learning that. I'd recommend doing any song you have not done from Judgement Day, starting with "We are the Resurrection"

I really love this song by them. It's in my top ten Lovebites song. Great Iron Maiden tribute to Aces High.

Intense epic masterpiece. Lovebites was too good.. wonderful album anniversary and go on. 👍🤘

Thank you for your great reaction! 0:49 at your video, Asami calls in Japanese "IKUYO! TOKYO!". And that means "Let's go! Tokyo!" to be accurately. Just a trivial. 🙃

Hey Shorecat, i hope everything is good, havent seen you in a while!! 🤘😊

I could imagine Bruce Dickenson wishing that Maiden had written this for him.😂😂

🤘🐺🤘LOVEBITES & MIYAKO OFFICIAL🤘

hey cat - we're getting worried. are you ok ?

At some point it feels like I should stop being impressed by Lovebites and just appreciate and enjoy them. However, even for performances I have seen a dozen times or more, I am still blown away, even though I know what's coming lol. That was amazing. Amazing. They're always amazing. Agree to on the audio engineer. I think I read somewhere that it was the same person that worked on Nightwish. If so, that would not surprise me. They're another band that sound glorious live and have amazing production on their videos. I think I said amazing too much, but what else is there to say?

I have heard tell that the production company that mixes the final audio ie the same company that produces & post mixes 'Nightwish' audio too.
