Lovebites' live performances are louder, heavier and in my opinion better than their studio albums. They perform with passion and emotion but with their mastery of their instruments/voice make it seem so effortless that they never break sweat. No tattoos, no multiple piercings, no torn black jeans & T-Shirts, no posturing, no gurning while playing solos, no drugs or alcohol (except some beer for Miho). They are real deal, sophisticated women, exceptionally talented musicians at the top of their game. I am a 75 year old headbanger and grew up with rock and roll, for me Lovebites is one of the best live bands I have seen and heard.
not only their performance are great, but their lyrics are great too "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
Hello everyone, if I may, I would like to suggest listening to a true masterpiece, SWAN SONG by LOVEBITES, Miyako, extraordinary musician, divine musician, as well as a beautiful woman, first with the intro on the piano, playing Chopin's "Revolutionary Etude" Etude Op 10 No. 12, then with the guitar and finally again at the piano, with the closure created by her, she demonstrated, together with the group, how you can create superior quality music, thanks for your attention.
@@hiawatha.g Yes, that is the better link. Miyako is a real classically trained concert pianist since age of 3. Her primary instrument is piano. Guitar is her 2nd instrument. Basically she has more than 24 years of piano and 10 years of guitar. Also, "Swan song" is not a happy song. Context is important on this song. Miyako is playing Chopin's "Revolutionary Etude" Etude Op 10 No. 12 at the start which bookends the song with the outro piano piece composed by Miyako. The song sings about gallant soldiers, brave warriors, floating lotus flower (symbolizing pureness), battle in Valhalla and gallant death - death of swan. Chopin's Etude came out at the time of the failed uprising in 1831 Warsaw Poland against the occupying Russia. Poland is Chopin's beloved homeland. He would never sat foot in his motherland again. So, the song composed by Miyako who loves Chopin, when you take the whole context is not a happy song. In fact, it's an ode calling for the fallen fighters. It's a beautiful epic metal song.
It’s quite my personal fantasy, I always imagine LOVEBITES’mind-blowing dream lineup inside each members’ internal roots. LOVEBITES always perform insanely “Melodic Power Metal” & “Intellectual + Brutal Thrash Metal” flawlessly! LOVEBITES are modest, diligent and lovely Heavy Metal Band Group Ever! LOVEBITES internal band lineups: Haruna: Lars Ulrich + Ingo Schwichtenberg + Scott Travis + Charlie Benante Miho: Steve Harris + Frank Bello + Ian Hill + John Entwistle + Tom Araya Miyako: Dave Mustaine + Marty Friedman + Uli Jon Roth Midori: Kiko Loureiro + Alex Skolnick + Dan Spitz Asami: Klaus Meine + Bruce Dickinson + Michael Kiske + David Coverdale #lovebites #lovebitesband #genuineheavymetal #melodicpowermetal #thrashmetal
I am gas you guys ate your words with our beautiful fairy who floats like a butterfly Asami, she does have an amazing voice. Any song you do live is a blow you away sight. These beautiful ladies are very versatile and can play any style of rock/metal. There is no other band that is better than these ladies, I been a huge fan for three years now. I have heard all of the other bands from Japan and the next in line to me would be Aldious and Bridear (2013-2018)
Yeah guys they are from different universe. But I've got something different for you. You know now how they do it power metal, but how about the trash metal please check the songs Break the wall and Hammer of wrath you'll be surprised . Also if you like the ballads please check the songs Edge of the world and Epilogue (for me this song is one of the best metal ballads make in the last 20 years). Enjoy it.
We want more get bites again from Lovebites!!😍 we are "Bites clan". More you listening and get a feeling music from Lovebites, more you get bites😁. Anyway great reaction. Thankyou very much for a great reaction🙏 hope more react again to Lovebites. Sorry if my english language is bad. I'm from Indonesia 🇲🇨
Good reaction. If you like ballad songs with beautiful vocal from Asami, try "Epilogue" or "Edge Of The World" If you want lovebites song with hardrock style, try "Dancing With The Devil"
Lovebites is (mostly) a power metal band but they have influences from Metallica, Iron Maiden, Helloween, Slayer, Dragon Force, Gary Moore, “Whitesnake”, etc., and they’re developing their own style. Obviously I recommend their live performances; they really shine live, especially their latest concert earlier this year “Zepp Divercity, Tokyo 2020”. Other recommended live performances are “Daughters of the dawn”, “Battle in the east”, “Wacken”. Avoid “Bloodstuck” (bad audio). My song suggestions: “When destinies align”, “Hammer of wrath”, “Shadowmaker”, “Break the wall”, “Rising”, “Signs of deliverance”, “Swan song” (with classical piano), “Scream for me”, “Raise some hell”, and a special mention to “Thunder vengeance” (mind blowing), “Dancing with the devil” (classic rock and bluesy vocals), “Empty daydream” (nice piano and vocals with catchy mid tempo), “Epilogue” (epic power ballad, great vocals, nice piano, scorching old school guitar solos) and “Edge of the world” (epic power ballad, nice vocals, nice guitar solos and song build up) Some other Japanese all-female rock bands are: Aldious, Mary’s blood, Bridear, Scandal, Hagane, Nemophila, etc. Japanese bands with women in an important role: Asterism, D_Drive, Unlucky Morpheous, Iron bunny, Mardelas, Wagakki Band, etc. All-male Japanese: Galneryus, X-Japan, etc. Yes, it would so interesting a Japanese rock week, so that I know more Japanese bands, no matter the sex gender.
Lovebites are my number one Japanese female metalband and Band-Maid my second one. But you can also try another female metalband called Aldious, the song 'We Are ".
you could actually do a j - rock and metal MONTH and barely scratch the surface ! as far as LOVEBITES goes at this time there is NO other band in their class. every member , song and performance is epic. 4 cd's in 4 years . cannot get enough of these brilliant beautiful ladies.
Just got Daughters of the dawn from I-Tunes cos my cd will take 6 weeks to get to Australia then it has to fight it's way thru our mail system (which is Clogged), am getting Five of a Kind on CD too but haven't purchased that one digitally yet. So now I get to listen to them live in my car and at work yay.
Great reactions to the best power metal band playing today. These women are insanely talented and if you want proof try the ballad Swan Song from this same show where they mix piano, guitar riffs, Asami's bluesy vocals and more piano into an awesome performance (th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html). These all play multiple instruments, play at insane speed with intricate chords and NEVER ever make a mistake and when they harmonize it is even more impressive. They have been around only 3+ years and continue to get better with each video especially LIVE!!!
You can do a week of j-rock, j-metal, all female band or whatever you want, but don't do it with these girls... Why wait for that to see Lovebites again? Why can't you listen to another song at any time? They are a Heavy Metal band, they are on another level, they are world class, like the great metal bands of all time, and live they are amazing. Thanks for giving Lovebites a few minutes on the channel. I'm glad you like it \m/ I recommend two songs (any other song is just as good) We the united (Live Tokyo 2020) th-cam.com/video/i9OEaVapKcE/w-d-xo.html Swan Song (Live Tokyo 2020) th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html
One of their ballads would be nice. Something like "Edge of The World" or "Empty Daydream" with the Jazz - R&B style singing and classical piano that morphs into a power ballad. Live stuff from their 2019 Tokyo Zepp concert is absolute tops.
"Thunder Vengeance" ←opening song for this stage "Swan Song (MIYAKO-Piano Solo (Revolutionary Etude) Swan Song)" 🤘Plz react Recommended for J-Rock week🤘other than Band-maid and Lovebites NINGEN ISU / Heartless Scat Maximum the Hormone / ALIEN Unlucky Morpheus / Black Pentagram Aldious / We Are (Full Version) from new album "We Are"
would love a j-rock week by you guys, could check out some of the most popular j-rock bands you havent listened to yet! would love to see your reactions to groups like Coldrain, one ok rock, scandal, Uverworld, just to name a few :)
This band is named from the Halestorm song Love Bites(So Do I), why not take a look at the official video, Lzzy Hale is by far the best female rock star and vocalist of the last 10 years!
Ladies, playing at a superb level and enjoying it. What more could a fellow ask for? You have received plenty of requests for further Lovebites, live songs. I may of said before, any track from their Bloodstock 2018 show, is not recommended due to the poor audio. Not their fault and fortunately, there is plenty of other live material on TH-cam. Thank you for your reaction and hopefully, you will introduce Lovebites, to people who otherwise would not of heard of them.
I know I am a bit late on this, but there are a few things that I feel have to be said, as a reaction to some of the things you commented on. While Japan does have a big rock/metal scne, it's for western bands, while the Japanese scene foe Japanese rock/metal is very small. If you go to a metal bar in Japan you will not hear a Japanese band played, it's all western bands. The average Japanese band in japan would call 750 people a very large crowd. The way Japanese bands now have started to get bigger crowds is to go to the west and tour then become known overseas. Which was a thing started by Babymetal, they started doing shows in the west, big festivals and supported Lady Gaga on her tour in the States, so the Japanese press started talk about them and they became big back home, Lovebites and Band Maid have done the same thing. So now you are starting to see a lot of Japanese band come and tour and do the festivals in the west. You said about how male groups don't look like they are enoying it, again in Japan they do, that would be down to they do it for the love of playing, with the crowd sizes so small, it's not for the money. I've seen a few and they all look as if they are having a blast on stage. I think having 2 weeks 1 for J-rock and 1 for J-metal is a good idea, just a bit of a warning here some bands do both, as in Japan they don't really see a difference, in Japan they do not do sub genres, like do in the west, so some bands can be all over the place, with Maximum The Hormone being a classic example of that, they do what they want to do. Yes there are bands that will stick to a style, but that can be pushed at times. Aldious are a metal band that can go into pop-punk at times.

Hm ... J-Rock week, ok, ... J-Metal week, even better ... but the real deal would be a LOVEBITES week!!!! Well, a LOVEBITTEN addict can dream, can't he? ;-) PS: Subscribed for more LOVEBITES, no matter what song, because you can't go wrong with any ...
Need to check out another live song by Lovebites Empty Daydream Live In Tokyo 2019. This one you get to hear the guitarist on the right play classical music on the piano at the start of the song.
Another fantastic live video you should do from Lovebites is "Swan Song"... and I highly recommend the "Miyako piano solo" version: (th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html)
For Jrock week, you should do Unlucky Morpheus, Im sure you'll love them. Unlucky Morpheus: Angrefier, Dignity of Spirit, Unending Sorceress, Black Pentagram all live if you can.
If you really want to hear their full range listen to "Empty Daydreams" live at Tokyo 2019. Softer than usual high tempo power metal, but you can hear how well can really sing. And Miyako OMG when she plays keyboard, the shreds face off on guitar. Swan song is great, but this is much better.
Next song is "Raise some hell" from Lovebites live concert. This is a link th-cam.com/video/Qm-3zhCFghg/w-d-xo.html Hope you check out, and can enjoy it to. Big thanks🙏
At first, I only read Holy War, and thought nice, Thy Art is Murder, and then i listen to this and think, that´s not thy Art is Murder but hell yeah that sounds nice xD. Still my recommendation: Lost Horizon - Highlander (The One).

cool reaction 😉 LOVE BITES BAND MAID And thank you for uploading the reaction video of the Japanese 🇯🇵 band 😊 please next Unlucky Morpheus --dignity of spirit This is a Japanese 🇯🇵 band that I would like people who have uploaded HM / HR reaction videos on TH-cam to know. (There are many other Aldios, DOOL $ BOOX, GALNERYUS, NINGEN ISU,etc. 😅) I'm using a Google translator, so I'm sorry if it's strange English 🙏
(Read through, lots of links below): I highly endorse J-rock week--several of them. The scene is huge and much more dynamic than the rock scene in the U.S., for sure. Here is a starter list of bands to check out: This list is mostly 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 and female-led hard-rock, punk and metal bands. Show-Ya (the original female J-metal band, founded in 1981, before Metallica-this is from their 30th (!) anniversary concert-and they are still touring): th-cam.com/video/oJ_5Gv3vFjQ/w-d-xo.html&pbjreload=10 Shonen Knife (The world’s first bubblegum punk band, founded in 1981. They have done several world tours. They also perform as a Ramones tribute band called Osaka Ramones): th-cam.com/video/w9LUlYzOiWs/w-d-xo.html Destrose (This band was never stable, but has become almost mythic in Japanese metal history, because so many great bands spun out of Destrose, including Lovebites--you will recognize the drummer and bassist): th-cam.com/video/7o7fktsBwQg/w-d-xo.html Aldious (Glamorous and kick-ass rockers-one of the first generation all-girl metal bands, along with Destrose) th-cam.com/video/sfkJT0rra-8/w-d-xo.html Asterism (not all female, but will melt your face off- the guitarist Haruka Noma is off the charts talented and still a teen-ager) th-cam.com/video/IfxMi0Bx4x0/w-d-xo.html Band-Maid (OK, there are 90+ great songs by them. Here is a live clip): th-cam.com/video/FHpuEqMAcDg/w-d-xo.html Bridear (Heavy, technical-and the tiny bassist also growls): th-cam.com/video/LQIDqudG_DQ/w-d-xo.html Disqualia (Destrose spin-out, featuring Narumi, one of the best guitarists of this generation) th-cam.com/video/-M5zBKrTJRg/w-d-xo.html Doll$Boxx (insane mix of metal, electropop, and god-knows what else; a collaboration between Fuki and Gacharic Spin ) th-cam.com/video/mu2z4Uf9Tgc/w-d-xo.html existTtrace (one of the earliest, progressive, technical, some death-metal and goth touches) th-cam.com/video/Oz1Lv8XGBF0/w-d-xo.html Fate Gear (super-group, one of the Destrose spinouts-this single video is one of the best in this list): th-cam.com/video/tLQbsoKQN-0/w-d-xo.html Gacharic Spin (founded in 2009 by a group of high-school friends; very technical, cover a range from punk-pop to heavy metal and progressive) Here is their first video, with original singer Armmy (d. 2015): th-cam.com/video/vfzIt20_xXg/w-d-xo.html Gallhammer (Death punk; this is from their 2007 UK/Europe tour): th-cam.com/video/2fTiyOO1nZE/w-d-xo.html Galmet (straight-up death metal, but in prom dresses) th-cam.com/video/PnvrOLeRt-I/w-d-xo.html Ganglion (Metal with a hint of electronica) th-cam.com/video/q9j4t3Ms-Sg/w-d-xo.html Lovebites (most recent official video, even better than Shadowmaker IMO): th-cam.com/video/hLFelI93VkM/w-d-xo.html Mary's Blood (The first major Destrose Spin-out: Saki murders her guitar without breaking any nails): th-cam.com/video/MLM2unV0kwU/w-d-xo.html Mutant Monster (Punk-pop): th-cam.com/video/Fd6ymMR40NU/w-d-xo.html Narumi (solo prog-rock composition-change of pace) th-cam.com/video/cRyCaHjwIgk/w-d-xo.html 54 Nude Honeys (early Japanese punk, from around 1990-they toured the UK and Europe): th-cam.com/video/jHnJSoGN5Mk/w-d-xo.html Otoboke Beaver (thrash punk): th-cam.com/video/fkWfFXnLpYg/w-d-xo.html Rie aka Suzaku (instrumental guitar) th-cam.com/video/m6Z2GD5SqNs/w-d-xo.html Tricot (Post-progressive math-rock, very technical, crazy time signatures and polyrhythms) th-cam.com/video/P_B_GalsJrE/w-d-xo.html Sonic Lover Reckless (Special project of Miyako Watanabe, one of the two insane Lovebites guitarists): th-cam.com/video/DXZ-qhxd1VI/w-d-xo.html Unlucky Morpheus (Female lead (Fuki) and violin (Jill). This band is a deep well unto itself, they cross many subgenres of metal; Fuki and Jill also do other projects and Fuki is lead for at least two other bands including Doll$Boxx, above): th-cam.com/video/V8i_QhOgsKw/w-d-xo.html Wagakki Band (Folk-Metal fusion band, all jedi-level musicians, half of them play traditional Japanese instruments and the other half play standard metal instruments) This song was originally written for a virtual (AI) singer, referred to as a Vocaloid: th-cam.com/video/Q2meWkWqc-I/w-d-xo.html I know some of the other hard-core J-metal fans will have other names, but I figure this is a good start!
Hello there Lads. just a few suggestions for you. check out Edge Of The World, Signs Of Deliverance, Under a Red Sky, The Crusade ( live version not the official video release) It's hard to find some of these now due to most songs being on other people's reaction channels. But there is some uploads by someone called OKKU and Star Shadow - Some of these feature two songs together. There is Many more of course. you will find that this band is not all Power Mental, they can slow things down a little like with songs called Epilogue & empty Daydream. But they are a Class Act.
hi , I would like to know your reaction about Iranian music Have you ever listened to Iranian music? singer : mohsen Yeganeh Song : I promise you A great pop music Singer: Yas Song: az chi begam ( what can I say ) A deep rap music Singer : sirvan khosravi Song: I love life An energetic pop music If you want me to give you a TH-cam link to the songs ?
You are the first guys that look like you are at a funeral, being very Salome about an amazing song 🤫, must be great having Prince Harry in your crew 😂😂🍻
You guys also need to check out ALDIOUS ( We Are ), and BRIDEAR ( Bloody Bride ), two more bands that r all female Japanese bands that's heavier than BAND-MAID, both bands shred, u need to watch them too
both aldious and bridear are significantly better bands than maids, just no match for lovebites, just the level of maids is too low. however, the representative songs of neither aldious nor bridear are those songs. aldious has changed singers since 2019, singers are missing as of 2021, bridear was better before the drummer and two guitarists changed. the representative song of aldious is "yozakura", and the representative song of bridear is "light in the dark". all of the Japanese all female bands are better than maids, and the representative songs of lovebites are all 50 songs.
Really enjoy your reactions and analysis. And absolutely no offense meant, but what's with this "J-Rock" and "J-Metal" stuff? Is it also "US-Rock" when you talk about RHCP, "S-Metal" when you talk about In Flames or "UK-Metal" when it's Iron Maiden? To just name the two I'm sure you already saw, Lovebites is a mostly Power Metal Band, Band-Maid is Hard Rock/Rock 'n Roll/undefinable. J-Rock is something completely different, way more generic/Pop music sounding and I think "J-Metal" straight up doesn't exist. Here's an example of J-Rock (not meant to react to, just an example): th-cam.com/video/dlFA0Zq1k2A/w-d-xo.html .
Yes... My fav band...great song too...
Next one 《swan song》live piano version please!😉
Any song from that 2020 show is really good......🤘🏼
Lovebites it's a Live concert group..., so good to watch at, Amazing group..I'm a fan of that sound.
Lovebites' live performances are louder, heavier and in my opinion better than their studio albums. They perform with passion and emotion but with their mastery of their instruments/voice make it seem so effortless that they never break sweat. No tattoos, no multiple piercings, no torn black jeans & T-Shirts, no posturing, no gurning while playing solos, no drugs or alcohol (except some beer for Miho). They are real deal, sophisticated women, exceptionally talented musicians at the top of their game. I am a 75 year old headbanger and grew up with rock and roll, for me Lovebites is one of the best live bands I have seen and heard.
Loves this song! office blokes 🤣
"Swan song" is next.

"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
Hello everyone, if I may, I would like to suggest listening to a true masterpiece, SWAN SONG by LOVEBITES, Miyako, extraordinary musician, divine musician, as well as a beautiful woman, first with the intro on the piano, playing Chopin's "Revolutionary Etude" Etude Op 10 No. 12, then with the guitar and finally again at the piano, with the closure created by her, she demonstrated, together with the group, how you can create superior quality music, thanks for your attention.
Here is the link (there are at least two links, but this is the better one): th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html
@@hiawatha.g Yes, that is the better link. Miyako is a real classically trained concert pianist since age of 3. Her primary instrument is piano. Guitar is her 2nd instrument. Basically she has more than 24 years of piano and 10 years of guitar. Also, "Swan song" is not a happy song. Context is important on this song.

Tiny haruna at the drums is such a force.
Haruna is life. 🖤🤘
It’s quite my personal fantasy, I always imagine LOVEBITES’mind-blowing dream lineup inside each members’ internal roots.
LOVEBITES always perform insanely “Melodic Power Metal” & “Intellectual + Brutal Thrash Metal” flawlessly! LOVEBITES are modest, diligent and lovely Heavy Metal Band Group Ever!
LOVEBITES internal band lineups:
Haruna: Lars Ulrich + Ingo Schwichtenberg + Scott Travis + Charlie Benante
Miho: Steve Harris + Frank Bello + Ian Hill + John Entwistle + Tom Araya
Miyako: Dave Mustaine + Marty Friedman + Uli Jon Roth
Midori: Kiko Loureiro + Alex Skolnick + Dan Spitz
Asami: Klaus Meine + Bruce Dickinson + Michael Kiske + David Coverdale
#lovebites #lovebitesband #genuineheavymetal #melodicpowermetal #thrashmetal
I am gas you guys ate your words with our beautiful fairy who floats like a butterfly Asami, she does have an amazing voice. Any song you do live is a blow you away sight. These beautiful ladies are very versatile and can play any style of rock/metal. There is no other band that is better than these ladies, I been a huge fan for three years now. I have heard all of the other bands from Japan and the next in line to me would be Aldious and Bridear (2013-2018)
Because the musicians are so incredible, its sometimes overlooked how savage Asam actuallyi is as a vocalist.
Yeah guys they are from different universe. But I've got something different for you. You know now how they do it power metal, but how about the trash metal please check the songs Break the wall and Hammer of wrath you'll be surprised . Also if you like the ballads please check the songs Edge of the world and Epilogue (for me this song is one of the best metal ballads make in the last 20 years). Enjoy it.
More live lovebites do not disappoint, see break the walk, the crusader, epilogue, just to start.

Thankyou very much for a great reaction🙏 hope more react again to Lovebites. Sorry if my english language is bad. I'm from Indonesia 🇲🇨
LOVEBITES WEEK !!!!
Eddie Van Halen would be proud with the tapping from all 3 guitarist. RIP!
Good reaction. If you like ballad songs with beautiful vocal from Asami, try "Epilogue" or "Edge Of The World"
If you want lovebites song with hardrock style, try "Dancing With The Devil"
Queen metal🤘🤘 the best !!
Lovebites is (mostly) a power metal band but they have influences from Metallica, Iron Maiden, Helloween, Slayer, Dragon Force, Gary Moore, “Whitesnake”, etc., and they’re developing their own style. Obviously I recommend their live performances; they really shine live, especially their latest concert earlier this year “Zepp Divercity, Tokyo 2020”. Other recommended live performances are “Daughters of the dawn”, “Battle in the east”, “Wacken”. Avoid “Bloodstuck” (bad audio). My song suggestions: “When destinies align”, “Hammer of wrath”, “Shadowmaker”, “Break the wall”, “Rising”, “Signs of deliverance”, “Swan song” (with classical piano), “Scream for me”, “Raise some hell”, and a special mention to “Thunder vengeance” (mind blowing), “Dancing with the devil” (classic rock and bluesy vocals), “Empty daydream” (nice piano and vocals with catchy mid tempo), “Epilogue” (epic power ballad, great vocals, nice piano, scorching old school guitar solos) and “Edge of the world” (epic power ballad, nice vocals, nice guitar solos and song build up)
Some other Japanese all-female rock bands are: Aldious, Mary’s blood, Bridear, Scandal, Hagane, Nemophila, etc.
Japanese bands with women in an important role: Asterism, D_Drive, Unlucky Morpheous, Iron bunny, Mardelas, Wagakki Band, etc.
All-male Japanese: Galneryus, X-Japan, etc.
Yes, it would so interesting a Japanese rock week, so that I know more Japanese bands, no matter the sex gender.
Helloween is strong in lovebites and as a Helloween fan, I love it to every note god damn they're so good.
Lovebites are my number one Japanese female metalband and Band-Maid my second one. But you can also try another female metalband called Aldious, the song 'We Are ".
you could actually do a j - rock and metal MONTH and barely scratch the surface ! as far as LOVEBITES goes at this time there is NO other band in their class. every member , song and performance is epic. 4 cd's in 4 years . cannot get enough of these brilliant beautiful ladies.
Just got Daughters of the dawn from I-Tunes cos my cd will take 6 weeks to get to Australia then it has to fight it's way thru our mail system (which is Clogged), am getting Five of a Kind on CD too but haven't purchased that one digitally yet. So now I get to listen to them live in my car and at work yay.

Great reactions to the best power metal band playing today. These women are insanely talented and if you want proof try the ballad Swan Song from this same show where they mix piano, guitar riffs, Asami's bluesy vocals and more piano into an awesome performance (th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html). These all play multiple instruments, play at insane speed with intricate chords and NEVER ever make a mistake and when they harmonize it is even more impressive. They have been around only 3+ years and continue to get better with each video especially LIVE!!!
You can do a week of j-rock, j-metal, all female band or whatever you want, but don't do it with these girls... Why wait for that to see Lovebites again? Why can't you listen to another song at any time? They are a Heavy Metal band, they are on another level, they are world class, like the great metal bands of all time, and live they are amazing. Thanks for giving Lovebites a few minutes on the channel. I'm glad you like it \m/
I recommend two songs (any other song is just as good)
We the united (Live Tokyo 2020)
th-cam.com/video/i9OEaVapKcE/w-d-xo.html
Swan Song (Live Tokyo 2020)
th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html
One of their ballads would be nice. Something like "Edge of The World" or "Empty Daydream" with the Jazz - R&B style singing and classical piano that morphs into a power ballad. Live stuff from their 2019 Tokyo Zepp concert is absolute tops.
you guys should see the entire concert, they do a lot of things, cause i'm there :D
Hey guys nice reaction. Try Break The Wall LIVE or Swan Song LIVE (both from the same show). The ladies wont disappoint you!
Stay safe.
They’re absolutely phenomenal! I hope Miho returns to the band so we can see them live!
She's long gone
thank you, guys.
"Thunder Vengeance" ←opening song for this stage
"Swan Song (MIYAKO-Piano Solo (Revolutionary Etude) Swan Song)"
🤘Plz react
Recommended for J-Rock week🤘other than Band-maid and Lovebites
NINGEN ISU / Heartless Scat
Maximum the Hormone / ALIEN
Unlucky Morpheus / Black Pentagram
Aldious / We Are (Full Version) from new album "We Are"
Lovebites👍👍👍
Level of difficulty on Xbox Rock band is "F××k that".
The level below is "Herman Li sits quietly sobbing in the corner".
A couple of other bands you should check out are Aldious and Mary's Blood. Both are Japanese all-female bands.
"Epilogue" is so emotional. Please react someday!
Awesome reaction of one of my favorite J metal girl band from Japan, next time try Aldious, Doll$boxx/Unlucky Morpheus/LightBringer
would love a j-rock week by you guys, could check out some of the most popular j-rock bands you havent listened to yet! would love to see your reactions to groups like Coldrain, one ok rock, scandal, Uverworld, just to name a few :)
This band is named from the Halestorm song Love Bites(So Do I), why not take a look at the official video, Lzzy Hale is by far the best female rock star and vocalist of the last 10 years!
I love Lovebites - Empty Daydream..
hope you guys watch it..
Ladies, playing at a superb level and enjoying it. What more could a fellow ask for? You have received plenty of requests for further Lovebites, live songs. I may of said before, any track from their Bloodstock 2018 show, is not recommended due to the poor audio. Not their fault and fortunately, there is plenty of other live material on TH-cam. Thank you for your reaction and hopefully, you will introduce Lovebites, to people who otherwise would not of heard of them.
I know I am a bit late on this, but there are a few things that I feel have to be said, as a reaction to some of the things you commented on.
While Japan does have a big rock/metal scne, it's for western bands, while the Japanese scene foe Japanese rock/metal is very small. If you go to a metal bar in Japan you will not hear a Japanese band played, it's all western bands. The average Japanese band in japan would call 750 people a very large crowd. The way Japanese bands now have started to get bigger crowds is to go to the west and tour then become known overseas. Which was a thing started by Babymetal, they started doing shows in the west, big festivals and supported Lady Gaga on her tour in the States, so the Japanese press started talk about them and they became big back home, Lovebites and Band Maid have done the same thing. So now you are starting to see a lot of Japanese band come and tour and do the festivals in the west.
You said about how male groups don't look like they are enoying it, again in Japan they do, that would be down to they do it for the love of playing, with the crowd sizes so small, it's not for the money. I've seen a few and they all look as if they are having a blast on stage.
I think having 2 weeks 1 for J-rock and 1 for J-metal is a good idea, just a bit of a warning here some bands do both, as in Japan they don't really see a difference, in Japan they do not do sub genres, like do in the west, so some bands can be all over the place, with Maximum The Hormone being a classic example of that, they do what they want to do. Yes there are bands that will stick to a style, but that can be pushed at times. Aldious are a metal band that can go into pop-punk at times.
And of course, Babymetal are the queens of doing what they want. Metal Galaxy is a prime example.
Hey Lovebites released 2 new MV ! 「Glory to the world」and「Winds of Transylvania」

Hm ... J-Rock week, ok, ... J-Metal week, even better ... but the real deal would be a LOVEBITES week!!!!
Well, a LOVEBITTEN addict can dream, can't he? ;-)
PS: Subscribed for more LOVEBITES, no matter what song, because you can't go wrong with any ...
Need to check out another live song by Lovebites Empty Daydream Live In Tokyo 2019. This one you get to hear the guitarist on the right play classical music on the piano at the start of the song.
We the United, the solos🤯🤯🤘🏼🤘🏼
Another fantastic live video you should do from Lovebites is "Swan Song"... and I highly recommend the "Miyako piano solo" version: (th-cam.com/video/_TM1nSP7odQ/w-d-xo.html)
For Jrock week, you should do Unlucky Morpheus, Im sure you'll love them.
Unlucky Morpheus: Angrefier, Dignity of Spirit, Unending Sorceress, Black Pentagram all live if you can.
This triple tapping phrase - is there a better hommage to the late Eddie Van Halen?
If you really want to hear their full range listen to "Empty Daydreams" live at Tokyo 2019. Softer than usual high tempo power metal, but you can hear how well can really sing. And Miyako OMG when she plays keyboard, the shreds face off on guitar. Swan song is great, but this is much better.
Miho Miho Miho! the Japanese Punk scene is doing good too, my favs are "Mutant Monster" and "Otoboke Beaver" but there are plenty of others
@Aratha Sena absolutely Visually and Musically
Next song is "Raise some hell" from Lovebites live concert. This is a link th-cam.com/video/Qm-3zhCFghg/w-d-xo.html
Hope you check out, and can enjoy it to. Big thanks🙏
Van Halen is dead.....We honor his passing and send love to his loved ones.
At first, I only read Holy War, and thought nice, Thy Art is Murder, and then i listen to this and think, that´s not thy Art is Murder but hell yeah that sounds nice xD. Still my recommendation: Lost Horizon - Highlander (The One).
Never too late to feed the Algorithm,... :o)

LOVE BITES
BAND MAID
And thank you for uploading the reaction video of the Japanese 🇯🇵 band 😊
please next
Unlucky Morpheus --dignity of spirit
This is a Japanese 🇯🇵 band that I would like people who have uploaded HM / HR reaction videos on TH-cam to know.
(There are many other Aldios, DOOL $ BOOX, GALNERYUS, NINGEN ISU,etc. 😅)
I'm using a Google translator, so I'm sorry if it's strange English 🙏
(Read through, lots of links below): I highly endorse J-rock week--several of them. The scene is huge and much more dynamic than the rock scene in the U.S., for sure. Here is a starter list of bands to check out: This list is mostly 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 and female-led hard-rock, punk and metal bands.
Show-Ya (the original female J-metal band, founded in 1981, before Metallica-this is from their 30th (!) anniversary concert-and they are still touring): th-cam.com/video/oJ_5Gv3vFjQ/w-d-xo.html&pbjreload=10
Shonen Knife (The world’s first bubblegum punk band, founded in 1981. They have done several world tours. They also perform as a Ramones tribute band called Osaka Ramones): th-cam.com/video/w9LUlYzOiWs/w-d-xo.html
Destrose (This band was never stable, but has become almost mythic in Japanese metal history, because so many great bands spun out of Destrose, including Lovebites--you will recognize the drummer and bassist): th-cam.com/video/7o7fktsBwQg/w-d-xo.html
Aldious (Glamorous and kick-ass rockers-one of the first generation all-girl metal bands, along with Destrose) th-cam.com/video/sfkJT0rra-8/w-d-xo.html
Asterism (not all female, but will melt your face off- the guitarist Haruka Noma is off the charts talented and still a teen-ager) th-cam.com/video/IfxMi0Bx4x0/w-d-xo.html
Band-Maid (OK, there are 90+ great songs by them. Here is a live clip): th-cam.com/video/FHpuEqMAcDg/w-d-xo.html
Bridear (Heavy, technical-and the tiny bassist also growls): th-cam.com/video/LQIDqudG_DQ/w-d-xo.html
Disqualia (Destrose spin-out, featuring Narumi, one of the best guitarists of this generation) th-cam.com/video/-M5zBKrTJRg/w-d-xo.html
Doll$Boxx (insane mix of metal, electropop, and god-knows what else; a collaboration between Fuki and Gacharic Spin ) th-cam.com/video/mu2z4Uf9Tgc/w-d-xo.html
existTtrace (one of the earliest, progressive, technical, some death-metal and goth touches) th-cam.com/video/Oz1Lv8XGBF0/w-d-xo.html
Fate Gear (super-group, one of the Destrose spinouts-this single video is one of the best in this list): th-cam.com/video/tLQbsoKQN-0/w-d-xo.html
Gacharic Spin (founded in 2009 by a group of high-school friends; very technical, cover a range from punk-pop to heavy metal and progressive) Here is their first video, with original singer Armmy (d. 2015):
th-cam.com/video/vfzIt20_xXg/w-d-xo.html
Gallhammer (Death punk; this is from their 2007 UK/Europe tour): th-cam.com/video/2fTiyOO1nZE/w-d-xo.html
Galmet (straight-up death metal, but in prom dresses) th-cam.com/video/PnvrOLeRt-I/w-d-xo.html
Ganglion (Metal with a hint of electronica)
th-cam.com/video/q9j4t3Ms-Sg/w-d-xo.html
Lovebites (most recent official video, even better than Shadowmaker IMO): th-cam.com/video/hLFelI93VkM/w-d-xo.html
Mary's Blood (The first major Destrose Spin-out: Saki murders her guitar without breaking any nails): th-cam.com/video/MLM2unV0kwU/w-d-xo.html
Mutant Monster (Punk-pop):
th-cam.com/video/Fd6ymMR40NU/w-d-xo.html
Narumi (solo prog-rock composition-change of pace) th-cam.com/video/cRyCaHjwIgk/w-d-xo.html
54 Nude Honeys (early Japanese punk, from around 1990-they toured the UK and Europe): th-cam.com/video/jHnJSoGN5Mk/w-d-xo.html
Otoboke Beaver (thrash punk): th-cam.com/video/fkWfFXnLpYg/w-d-xo.html
Rie aka Suzaku (instrumental guitar) th-cam.com/video/m6Z2GD5SqNs/w-d-xo.html
Tricot (Post-progressive math-rock, very technical, crazy time signatures and polyrhythms) th-cam.com/video/P_B_GalsJrE/w-d-xo.html
Sonic Lover Reckless (Special project of Miyako Watanabe, one of the two insane Lovebites guitarists): th-cam.com/video/DXZ-qhxd1VI/w-d-xo.html
Unlucky Morpheus (Female lead (Fuki) and violin (Jill). This band is a deep well unto itself, they cross many subgenres of metal; Fuki and Jill also do other projects and Fuki is lead for at least two other bands including Doll$Boxx, above): th-cam.com/video/V8i_QhOgsKw/w-d-xo.html
Wagakki Band (Folk-Metal fusion band, all jedi-level musicians, half of them play traditional Japanese instruments and the other half play standard metal instruments) This song was originally written for a virtual (AI) singer, referred to as a Vocaloid:
th-cam.com/video/Q2meWkWqc-I/w-d-xo.html
I know some of the other hard-core J-metal fans will have other names, but I figure this is a good start!
Check this out swan song fron this band,no regret 🤟🤘🤟🤘🤟🤘
Arch Enemy - nemesis live in Japan 2008
6pm BST tonight... With a shout out to you!
Hello there Lads. just a few suggestions for you. check out Edge Of The World, Signs Of Deliverance, Under a Red Sky, The Crusade ( live version not the official video release) It's hard to find some of these now due to most songs being on other people's reaction channels. But there is some uploads by someone called OKKU and Star Shadow - Some of these feature two songs together. There is Many more of course. you will find that this band is not all Power Mental, they can slow things down a little like with songs called Epilogue & empty Daydream. But they are a Class Act.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

You are the first guys that look like you are at a funeral, being very Salome about an amazing song 🤫, must be great having Prince Harry in your crew 😂😂🍻
This was good. For your ladies week could you check out Lzzy Hale?
Swan song Swan song Swan song Swan song please !
Can you please react to / Within Destruction- Human Defect ?
You guys also need to check out ALDIOUS ( We Are ), and BRIDEAR ( Bloody Bride ), two more bands that r all female Japanese bands that's heavier than BAND-MAID, both bands shred, u need to watch them too
both aldious and bridear are significantly better bands than maids, just no match for lovebites, just the level of maids is too low. however, the representative songs of neither aldious nor bridear are those songs. aldious has changed singers since 2019, singers are missing as of 2021, bridear was better before the drummer and two guitarists changed. the representative song of aldious is "yozakura", and the representative song of bridear is "light in the dark". all of the Japanese all female bands are better than maids, and the representative songs of lovebites are all 50 songs.
You guys should react to teyana taylor bare with me
Bent knee. Battle creek
Please react to Chloé x halle 💛
I must be the only one that doesn't like her voice, sounds like she should be singing something more classical
they need to trash the video and make the live performance the video
PLEASE REACT TO " MOTIVATION " BY NORMANI PLEASE
BabyMetal Road of Resistance...
Really enjoy your reactions and analysis. And absolutely no offense meant, but what's with this "J-Rock" and "J-Metal" stuff? Is it also "US-Rock" when you talk about RHCP, "S-Metal" when you talk about In Flames or "UK-Metal" when it's Iron Maiden? To just name the two I'm sure you already saw, Lovebites is a mostly Power Metal Band, Band-Maid is Hard Rock/Rock 'n Roll/undefinable. J-Rock is something completely different, way more generic/Pop music sounding and I think "J-Metal" straight up doesn't exist. Here's an example of J-Rock (not meant to react to, just an example): th-cam.com/video/dlFA0Zq1k2A/w-d-xo.html .
You guys aer as exciting as Margret Thatcher's suppositories.
