They are practically unheard of in the USA due to lack of promotion from the label and resistance from the USA music industry. But they can't stop word of mouth, so please keep promoting Lovebites and telling all your friends. These ladies are phenomenal, as good as any metal band out there today.

That was just the second song into a nearly two hour set. They've barely got warmed up by this point. It just gets more and more epic from here on! Forget about top twenty five... these ladies are simply the top.

The Piano was used for Swan Song with Chopin Intro here's a link from Ride for Vengeance with a Keytar and Guitar duet Lovebites Spellbound (Ride for Vengeance) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gK6ZecWm38ytinU.html

Midori is playing an ESP guitar.

You guys are right about Iron Maiden. Lovebites founder bassist Miho was heavily influenced by Maiden and other 70/80s British heavy metal bands. That is also the reason Lovebites has two lead guitarists. If you are familiar with Japanese female metal bands, you'll know Asami's vocal is different from most of them. The band found Asami specifically due to her vocal and singing style, which is similar to Bruce Dickinson or Ronnie James Dio.

LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics: Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood People live in fear, covered in mud Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters There is a thousand, a thousand of evils Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and all for one forevermore Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall Reincarnation, wait for your call Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters Morning star and dying moon Into the Gates of Hell we march Mighty soul, let there be hope Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal What do we live for？What do we fight for, tonight？ But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for Only have one thing on our mind Facing the fate, holy war Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and for one forevermore What do we live for？What do we fight for, tonight？ But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for Only have one thing on our mind Facing the fate, holy war ----- lyrics: LOVEBITES music: Mao arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)

HARUNA !!! HARUNA !!! HARUNA !!! 👍🐺👍

Wolfpack united! LOVEBITES is #1! Asami! Midori! Miyako! Miho! Haruna!

You guys prepared for one of their masterpieces ?? Swang Song ( + Chopin intro ) : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jaiYp9SYzr6pcWg.html By the way, they record their albums the same place Nightwish do.

You wanna hear what's going on with the bass? Watch "The Awakening + Hammer of Wrath" live at Zepp Diver City Tokyo! it's amazing!

For some more crazy guitar shredding, check out Scream for Me. Also, Break The Wall, The Hammer Of Wrath. This band literally has 0 bad songs. 🤘🏻🐺

Songs by Lovebites to check out: Shadowmaker Swan Song with Chopin Intro Spellbound (Ride for Vengeance) Edge of The World Epilogue Empty Daydream Break The Wall The Awakening/Hammer of Wrath Rising When Destinies Align Glory To The World

Thank you so much for appreciating Lovebites. 😊 Inspiring and uplifting reaction. Stay positive, stay tuned! 😊🐺

If you want to see Miyako on piano, check out "Swan Song (Piano Etude)", "Epilogue", "Edge Of The World", & "Spellbound". If you want to check out another Japanese Metal band, I highly recommend Galneryus. Their guitarist Syu is an absolute God & an inspiration for Miyako. Their lead vocalist is highly talented & sang the intro for Hunter X Hunter, "Departure!", before joining Galneryus (they covered it as well after he joined). They also did the Season 2 outro for HxH ("Hunting For Your Dream"). Three songs I would recommend you to check out from them are "Angel Of Salvation", "Raise My Sword", & "Force Of Courage", preferably all live versions.

This live version of Holy War is from their "Five of a Kind" release. This was great, but the latest live version of this song that they did in their latest release "Heavy Metal Never Dies" this year blows this one away. 😁 If you can find the Bluray or DVD & afford it, I highly suggest in getting it, it's totally worth buying, LOVEBITES is worth it. They are great & they have so much more good heavy metal music to offer. Thank you guys for checking out LOVEBITES. Cheers & stay safe! 🤘🐺🐺🐺🐺

Their music is so good, they're going to make you cry.

Midori plays ESP guitars. Not only does she play, she went to the ESP Guitar Craft Academy and made a few guitars alongside other students

Miyako, the dark haired guitar goddess slayes the piano / keyboard !! She has been playing since the age of 3 & is as good as anybody in the world. She was going to make classical piano her career, then at 18 she discovered guitar 🎸 Whenever you hear piano / keys in the background, Miyako recorded it & controls it from her pedal board. Miyako is also the main music composer but they all have written music for the band. If your going to keep playing Lovebite songs...I might have to subscribe !!😎🎸🎹🥁🤘

Great reaction, Great Band!

Who can follow a Miyako solo? Midori can like a Boss. 9:44 🤘🐺🤘

Power metal band LOVEBITES' double-disc live album "HEAVY METAL NEVER DIES: Live from Tokyo 2021" will be released on CD worldwide on November 5th.

Amazing band.. Lovebites 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘 the best band of heavymetal right now.. kick ass🤘🤘🤘

Great reaction ! I want to see more.

you've just scratched the surface you're not done being blown away. Every Lovebites track is at least a big slap in the face.

LOVEBITES IS THE BEST 🤘🔥

Some people say that it’s a crime that two of the best guitarists in the world are in the same band. By the way, Asami (vocalist) has a R&B, soul and jazz background and she was introduced to metal when she joined Lovebites. My next recommendation is “Thunder vengeance” (live, Zepp Divercity)

It's alright if you guys just heard about them now.. Everyone will discover Lovebites on their on time.. Now that you've found them, you'll never leave them ever...

You can hear more bass in Hammer of Wrath live. Piano in Swan Song

I would put Lovebites up against any male metal band and I think they would probably slay the opposition with their technical ability, songwriting skills and live performance. They make it seem so effortless at the same time as looking like supermodels on the catwalk and perform a full 90 minute plus gig, playing their instruments, moving around the stage, headbanging and changing the pedals on their effects boards wearing four inch high heels and do not even break sweat says it all. They are definitely the real deal.

Midori (blonde guitarist) is playing an ESP E2 HORIZON rain deer blue and kemper amplifier and profileer and Miyako (black haired guitarist/ pianist) plays Dean guitars and a Gibson les Paul she is using a peavy amp and orange cab the bassist Miho is using an ESP Bass guitar and Haruna (drummer) is playing on PEARL Drums. I noticed you made a reference to Iron Maiden well LOVEBITES made a tribute song to Maiden (specifically ACES HIGH) the song LOVEBITES made is called “The Crusade” kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q8t7rLRl3a-RnY0.html this is the official music video

Nice reaction just natural. Do more lovebites and japanese bands

Whom do they sound like? You referred to so many bands. It means they are not copying any specific band that you have named. They remind you of so many bands because they simply sound like old school metal, and influenced by romantic era classic music. As you mentioned about piano, this piece is played in the same show, and you can hear some of classic essence there. This is a tremendous piece. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jaiYp9SYzr6pcWg.html The singer shouldn't sound like anybody in metal. Her background is R&B/Jazz. She didn't know anything about metal when she was recruited by Lovebites. She tried to adapt her style to metal first but the other members advised her not to, and here she is.

Comparing the Valkyrie Goddess of Metal, Floor Jansen and Asami the Napoleon Stage General is a riot to me. Floor at 6' 1" and built like an Amazon Warrior next to the 4' 10" ex-ballerina just makes me LMAO. Floor has been at it since she is 16 and has training in Opera, Musical Theater and other vocal techniques. Asami is a backup RnB/Jazz/Soul/Gospel background and never sang metal till she joined this band. Both are absolute Stage Generals who command the stage and the crowds while their bands are one of the best playing LIVE there is. Unfortunately, both bands lost there bassists (Marko left Nightwish and was replaced by Jukka from Wintersun (now there is a band to blow your mind Sons of Winter and Stars (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/itJlh5CY0brIiKs.html) where Kai the drummer of NW came from as well). LB lost Miho to personal reasons and they are now on hiatus till she is replaced. Nice reaction to a song that doesn't even make this band's top 10 list!!!! If you want to see the real band in action then here we go: Guitar Clinic Scream for Me LIVE (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l8mnntOZzOCyl2w.html), the solos go on and on nd only end when Asami calls a truce!!! Thrash (this band's speciality) The Awakening/Hammer of Wrath LIVE (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pdp6jbOGqN3df4E.html) after 90+min set this is their return for a 3 song encore. Piano & Metal (masterpiece) Swan Song with Chopin Piano Etude intro LIVE (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jaiYp9SYzr6pcWg.html) Watch Miyako's left hand on the keys!!! Uplifting and Guitar crazy Rising LIVE (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a7KEYLqZq63XgHk.html) put on the captions and enjoy the lyrics. Blast Fun Spellbound LIVE (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gK6ZecWm38ytinU.html) Their salute to arena rock bands of the '80s and Miyako is wicked on the keyboard and then the Nerd gets the KEYTAR to play while she harmonizes with Midori (who is LHAO at Miyako lugging that instrument on stage). When you are done then you can jump into Nemophila, Mary's Blood, Aldious, Doll$Boxx, etc... all the female bands in Japan saving Rock and Metal from being eaten alive by the Pop, Rap and Hip-Hop waves on YT.

as you mentioned the quality of their sound and nightwish: their records and dvd/blurays were mixed and mastered at finvoy studios/helsinki by the guys, who also woork with nightwish, amorphis, children of bodom etc. subscribed.

Welcome back get bites from Lovebites. What a crazy about Lovebites.. They not just master of musicians, but they can make you get bites so hard with they songs. Next try they music video. The song is "Winds of Transylvania" That's song is a theme song for anime called Vlad love. Thank you for great reaction again to Lovebites. Wolfpack keep on lovebitten!🤘🐺🤘

esp horizon II is Midoris Guitar Miyako uses Deans true

Guys, watch them play another live song Spellbound, watch her shredding the sling keyboard.... 😀

Congratulations on finding the best new metal band to come along in decades. Just found your channel, watched your earlier reactions to Hanabie, Lovebites etc. Here is some info on Lovebites: In their five years of existence as a band, they set a standard that easily puts them on a par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels sent to save us, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. Whatever the description, I think one can say they have given metal a badly needed makeover and maybe a new lease on life. They have themselves said that part of their mission is to save heavy metal from darkness and obscurity. Some background: They were formed in 2016 from the remnants of a legendary all-girl Japanese metal band called Destrose (yes, all-girl metal has been a thing in Japan since at least 1981). Miho (bass, chief headbanger and soul of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the greatest European bands of the golden age of metal. She recruited her former bandmate Haruna (drums, 4'9" “pocket nuclear reactor”); they needed two world-class guitarists, and so they went and found Midori and Miyako, who were with other bands. The whole group then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she also trained in ballet). Miho and Miyako have composed most of their music, in collaboration with Mao, the lead composer of another band called Lightbringer, but Midori has also been getting into the act. Asami writes a lot of the lyrics. They studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. and aced it all. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance is that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining. They have incorporated some of the best of each of those bands into their arsenal, and at this point they’ve taken it to another level. This is one of their usual first songs for reactors, and rightly so--you get a good sense of the band. They do everything from soulful power ballads to heavy thrash, and almost every song includes face-melting solos by Miyako and Midori. The two guitarists are quite different in style and tone. Midori (blonde ponytail) is the extrovert and speed demon; Miyako is the introvert, with the more soulful feel. Midori uses a cleaner tone, Miyako uses more distortion, pinch harmonics and pedal effects. The contrast makes their duets rich and dynamic. As another reviewer said, "It seems criminal these two are allowed to be in the same band." Either one can smoke most of the shredders in the classic metal bands. They are generally best live. You already saw "Set the World on Fire" so here are some more: "Edge of the World" and "We the United", back to back: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qdJgYLhe3tGuc4k.html They form an incredible journey from darkness and despair to light and hope. Also, “Empty Daydream”, which starts as a ballad and becomes a real rocker: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/or6Ykth-sp-Ymok.html; Miyako is also a professional-level classical concert pianist, and was headed for a career in classical music, before picking up the guitar. If you want to see what she can do on the piano, watch “Swan Song” WITH the prelude, which is Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude”. Miyako wrote “Swan Song” using elements from several classical pieces including the Etude. This link should work: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jaiYp9SYzr6pcWg.html; but if it is taken down, you can watch two clips back to back: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nqpyncyCrp_HqZc.html and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6ujeLp6uMmcgWQ.html I promise, it’s worth it. For a thrasher with heavy Metallica vibes, “Break the Wall” kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fZZiZMSBl8fTZo0.html includes two gorgeous and completely contrasting solos by M&M. For a heart-stopping ballad, “Epilogue” kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9-eobt1y6vSno0.html (this includes a second song, your choice whether or not to react to both) Finally, while it’s generally true their live clips are best, their MV’s are epic and worth seeing: "When Destinies Align" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nrJ2mM96npm6m4E.html "Glory to the World" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y916p6djvau8eGg.html "Winds of Transylvania" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ftl1Z7iTxLbOmGw.html. You'll get lots of suggestions, just one thing: don't bother with Bloodstock footage, the sound quality is poor. Best to take suggestions with actual links. Also, you can’t go wrong with any of their official clips. Welcome to the Wolf-Pack!

Love your reactions to Lovebites. No filler, all killer as the saying goes. Miyako, the dark-haired guitarist, is a world class pianist too. As suggested by a bunch of others, check out Swan Song with Piano Etude intro. But just know that whatever song you pick next will be awesome.

Check out When Destinies Align and the blond is playing an ESP it's on the same DVD or do the music video

Like many others have suggested, check out Swan Song live with Chopin's intro. The classical music influenced power/thrash metal for that piece is absolutely beautiful.

great reaction, you should see the black haired guitarist(Miyako) play the piano. check out their song called: Swan Song Thanks

Check out Golden Destination if you want to hear more of Miho's bass. She really gets to shine in that song.

Wait until you stumble across Raise Some Hell. When Miyako breaks out the wah pedal, it's game over 🎸💥

Lovebites is kick ass. You got to check out their concert video of "Thunder Vengeance" The breakdown in the song is killer. How about checking out another all female Japanese band called Band Maid. They are more rock than metal but still awesome. Their MVs are good but they really shine live. Here is a link to their song "Domination" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8iphKZ705zWiZs.html

BAND-MAID, NEMOPHILA, Telecide and Asterism is a recommend too.

Lovebites and Band-maid are the best japanese bands out there for me right now. Please check Band-maid. Send you hughs from Colombia

They are flawless perfection encapsulated. The best band on the planet by far!

Watch Bite The Dust from their Vengeance Tour this year

There's a picture of all them standing there with Herman Li in the middle he has on a white dress hahaha

My fav band

Love Bites " Winds of Transylvania" you guys would run out of toilet paper .. it'sl anime video. You guys got off lucky this was my first song my niece recommended them and I saw five beautiful prom queens thought to myself this is the j-pop death sentence. . Then I said how cute they're doing the bullhorn thing.. next thing I know milks all over the place and I got fruit loops all hung up in my nasal cavity These girls been blowing up on KZfaq for the last 3 months hard it's down to several times a day sometimes every few minutes..

Mega congrats to Miyako, who today announced her marriage AND the birth of their child!

You'd better check the next song, WHEN DESTINIES ALIGN. Unreal guitar solo like Dragonforce.

miyako san has just anounced marriage and childbirth! asami also has married recently. now I understand, why miho left. hopefully, after an adequate pause they will continue their amazing musical career with lovebites with all of the ladies. love.

YESSSSS!!! LEATHERWOLF WAS THE SHIT!!! I'm in SoCal and am 55yo, have seen them live from back in the day 87 to about 10 years ago. Such a great band that never got the publicity they deserved. Their debut album is one of the best debut albums I've ever heard. Still one of my all time favorite bands. "We Rule the Night!" And yes, the first time I saw Lovebites(my new favorite band) I saw the live Thunder Vengeance....and I was shocked, thrilled and in love all at the same time. If I could have their babies I would.🤣

Also, realize that everyone except the drummer is wearing high heels.

Guys so far you've been reacting to the newer bands like Hanabie, Nemophila & Lovebites...I think it's time for you to check out the older bands like Mary's Blood, Bridear, Destrose, Aldious, Band-Maid and even Show-ya (been playing since 1981!!).

If you like Lovebites, Nemophila ,Band Maid, Bridear, Mary's Blood send it to 10 people tell them to do the same get it around the world you know I started listening to them here in the United States about 4 years ago maybe five but I sent it to all my friends a lot of people listen to them over here now I think everybody's picked a group out there like but they're all great I love all of them

Well if you want a instrumental band that is stunning I give you Asterism, Japanese teens who have been together since they were 11!! Dawn LIVE (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNuBg9l6s7DHcWQ.html) in a small club due to their ages and lack of exposure. Hal-Ca/guitar is 16 and has that Hendrix vibe, Miyu has the custom made 7 string bass (ESP made a custom only for him bass at 17 y.o.), the poor drummer Mio is fantastic keeping these 2 beasts in check and on point. They write, arrange and compose the fusion of Metal/Jazz/Hard Rock and if your want shredding it is up close on this video. No vocals has held them back but they are still in high school when this was made so imagine where they will be in another 5 years.

Thx. Fun reaction video, i really enjoyed it. IMHO, there are 7 or 8 songs that are better than this song (Set the world on fire is one of those). I think lots of ppl recommending this song because it is very difficult to play and sing, and it's relevant to the current fight against the pandemic.

Frozen Serenade and edge of the world I think that's two of them they play the piano in and burden of time

Miho Miho Miho!

Next time, call Nicky and do a reaction to Lovebites's "We the united" (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h9iRgNmExpy1hGg.html ) . or.. maybe can try another band: Unleash the archers. "Awakening" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ndeFg6qSlpuzpKM.html Be prepared for more.. a lot more..

Guys you need to play more reaction Songs on this group LOVEBITES

More crazy stuff then "Break the Wall" or "Epilogue/Hammer of Wrath" or "Raise som Hell" and many more of course...

Next “Swan Song”‼️👍

Just a little bit more we'll get to Band Maid and Wagakki,

If I listed all of the training and proficiency each one of these girls has… you would think I’m making shit up, but please please check out the background of these ladies. That alone will entertain you. My personal fav is Haruna the drummer. She is known as a pocket nuke.

Miyako-Dean Midori-ESP

Nice reaction 👍 Next check it out band is BAND MAID THRILL (MV) 2014 Domination (official live)

Herman Li said Tina s needs to have a fan on and make more faces while she's playing his music because she's sitting there shredding the hell out of the guitar and she's chewing gum looking around the room he said she just did that to make him look bad so he was laughing about it yeah Herman Li is really good he's the shredder for DragonForce

Vob voice of Braceprot you got to listen to this group and don't comment till it's over girls from Indonesia

“Holy War” was the second song of an almost two hour incredible set. “Thunder Vengeance” was the opener and it’s fantastic as well: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r711arOiqNarmWg.html

You need check out Nemophila Revive.. their new song and vid🤟

Crossfaith - Rx Overdrive (Official Live Video)

If you guys react to band-maid onset, I will most definitely sub.

LOVEBITES/ Epilogue and Edge of the world/ Please check it out and reaction! My name is HARUKI from Tokyo Japan.

Since you asked for more Japanese bands, here goes (I posted this on an earlier reaction so if you saw it already, apologies for the repetition). Japan has had an active all-girl metal scene since at least 1981. This is a starter list of all-female (or in eight cases, mixed gender) metal, punk, hard-rock and post-rock bands, with founding dates where I know them. It's alphabetical, except for the first three, which are at the top of the list for historical reasons. They set the table for the explosion of Japanese female hard-rock, punk and metal bands. Note: I have tried to pick clips that are reactor-friendly because they are high quality and are representative of the band's style. You are likely to get suggestions mainly for Band-Maid, Babymetal, Lovebites, Nemophila, Unlucky Morpheus and Wagakki Band. You can’t go wrong with any of those, but I hope you will find time to check out more of the bands on this list. They are all worth the time and deserve the love, and many will really surprise you.

Why piano? The answer lies in “swan song”

Dunno about Metallica at there peak in 2000s they were a force day 1 peaked late 80s - very early 90s. Then commercialization, bad choices and even bigger egos got in way. Metallica are the best Metallica cover band, sorry Scream inc lol They havent been able to recapture the magic energy hunger rawness and attitude of the early days. Jason leaving did not help he was the most metal dude in the band..

OMG where are on earth are you getting your info from geez, wrong in every direction. They are not inspired by nightwish in fact they are so much better than nightwish, Asami does not sound like floor at all. Dragon force was the first male metal band top bow down to the excellence of Lovebites and has great respect for them, these ladies are so much better than your favorite rock/metal band. Metallica in 2012 sucked from 1983 through 1990 was their peak, you youngsters have a lot to learn, but yeah it is what it is!
