    What I have heard of is the guys in Wacken were joking about all girl band from Japan, and once started the performance they said "Hey what's going on!!" and rushed to the stage.

    Days after the EP's release, Lovebites won the 2018 Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award for best new band.
    They performed in Germany at Wacken Open Air on August 4, and in England on the main stage at Bloodstock Open Air on August 10.
    In November 2018, the band held their first European tour that saw them visiting the Netherlands, Germany, France and the UK.

    As I understand the chronology, The Lovebites EP released May 24, 2017, got Metal Hammer's attention. They released "Awakening from Abyss" October 25th, 2017, played London November 2017 (Hyper Japan & Underworld Camden, phone vids on u2b), Metal Hammer attended.
    Their Battle Against Damnation EP, ('promo'd by Asami here) was released on June 6th, 2018, awarded "Best New Band" (no gender qualification) June 11, 2018.
    Play Wacken Open Air, August 4th, smaller stage, noon on last day of 4 day festival(!) LOVEBITES woke them from the dead!
    This impressive performance got attention of Bloodstock (played 6 days later) who moved them to Main Stage when an act was needed to fill the "Suicidal Tendencies" spot due to their plane delay.
    Yes, Midori not blond, yet, & other side of stage.
    Playing Wacken was Miho's original goal as a metal musician, mentioned in her "withdrawal" letter.

    Another Great Reaction GMG. What a great driving song to introduce themselves to the world Metal Community! After this performance they were invited to tour with Dragon Force in 2019 in England, and followed with another European tour. Miho was Over the Moon during this performance. Her DREAM as a Metal musician was to play Wacken. The award they won was the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award in Great Britain. Previous winners: Killswitch Engage, Nightwish, Anthrax, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet for My Valentine, Machine Head, Lamb of God, Iron Maiden, Mastodon, Arch Enemy . . . Pretty good company to be in methinks. 🤘🐺🤘

    I've seen people call this part of a trilogy, but I've never seen the band refer to it that way. Asami has specifically called "Under the Red Sky" the sequel to "The Apocalypse," both of them are about the Hiroshima atomic bombing, but as you said, "Above the Black Sea" is about the various Japanese suicide units from World War II. At best, I consider this a "gaiden," a side story, to those two songs.
    Wacken was their second live release. It was never put out on Blu-ray, only a DVD included with a different version of their third album, and was specifically mentioned by Miho in her farewell message as a favorite memory. You can see them win over the crowd as the shows goes on. There's a lot of close camera shots throughout and not only does Midori not have blonde hair yet, this is the last live release with Miyako's light brown hair and Asami's dress that looks like it could fall off at any moment.

    LOVEBITES - Above the Black Sea lyrics:
    Age of oddities, suffocating with all of these strings pulling me
    Fit into the mold of this twisted world
    This is how it's ought to be
    Worshipped death and flight, sin to live the night
    Who are you supposed to be
    Higher and higher, higher than the Heavens
    Now's the time to pour your blood and heart into the sky
    Higher and higher, far above the Heavens
    Go beyond the silent clouds that promise nothing but the end
    Time to put an end to this nightmare
    Cause you have no choice in your hands
    Higher and higher, higher than the Heavens
    Now's the time to pour your blood and heart into the sky
    Higher and higher, far above the Heavens
    Go beyond the silent clouds that promise nothing but the end
    In a moment I'll fade away
    As long as he will bring us a new day
    I will take this in as my fate
    Just let me leave something proving my life
    In a moment I'll fade away
    As long as he will bring you a new day
    I am thankful this was my fate
    Just let me leave reason to my life

    I was already a fan back then and I wanted to go to Wacken that year just for them. Unfortunately for financial reasons (Greek economic crisis) , I was unable to attend.They played first that day to an already packed place ( it was in a big tent because it was rainy weather) and actually VERY few people were aware of who Lovebites are. The vast majority of the audience thought that a Japanese female band would be similar to BABYMETAL and so they went to see Lovebites out of curiosity. At the end of the performance, the WHOLE crowd chanted their name and wanted more.

    Yes, this concert was a milestone for Lovebites and Miho’s dream come true. I really love this performance and the DVD is included in the “Electric Pentagram” CD; it is about 40 minutes long and the video is amazing. A couple of months ago I purchased this CD and also the Blue-Rays of the concerts “Daughters of the dawn” (2019), “Five of a kind” (2020) and “Heavy metal never dies” (2021). I bought them in Amazon Japan; quiet expensive ((including shipping to Mexico) but really, really worth it. Amazon Japan delivery service is just outstanding.
    I might be exaggerating, but to me those concerts are ones of the best in metal history, and I would dare to say in rock history. I discovered Lovebites two and a half years ago and I’m still in owe. I’m well aware that music is a very subjective matter.

    Awesome for checking out the live at Wacken video over the Daughters Of The Dawn version. This is a great example of an earlier performance from them
    Lovebites formed in 2016 but their 1st release (The Lovebites EP) didnt get released until May 24th 2017 and later that year their 1st full length album was released and then their 2nd EP (Battle Against Damnation) was released early june 2018. That makes 3 releases in about a 1 year span and each release was insanely good. And they made it to Wacken in the summer of 2018. That didnt go unnoticed with Metal Hammer and that's what lead Metal Hammer awarding Lovebites The Best New Band of 2018. The fact they accomplished that much in such a short span and were able to do it live that well so early in their career

    iLovebites' first ever full length gig was not in Japan but in London at a club called The Underworld in Camden, London in November 2017 where they played to 500 people, Nine months later they played Waken in front of several thousand people. Quite a journey in so short a time. Miyako and Midri swapped sides sometime towards the end of 2018. My guess is that on the opposite of ther stage Midoroi was able to interact with Miho in a way Miyako didn't. Also thay are wearing the first version of their white stage costumes. In the nest two versions Miyako wears a full length skirt while the others continue to eear short skirts.

    • @nontask78
      @nontask78 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It could also have to do with their different equipment. As Miyako decribed in an interview about her equipment, her woofer puts out the sound in a wide trajectory as opposed to Midory's straight forward. So it's more efficient for Midory's equipment to be next to Miho's and for Miyako's to be alone on the other side. Just a thought...

    Hi, another great reaction, all of us fans are waiting for the return of the band but I begin to think that it will not be very early, Asami announced today on Instagram the birth of her little girl, Miyako is already mother the new bass player has not yet been announced and also in Japanese culture women have to marry within thirty years and have children, I don't know if Midori is engaged but she's just turned 28 and soon she could get married too and this makes me fear that we won't see them on tour outside Japan, I hope I'm wrong I hope so much, I love Lovebites🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤🐺💖🇯🇵🇮🇹

    Good catch re. M&M positions. Until late 2018, Miyako was always stage right (audience left). You'll see that in older live videos, eg. from Battle in the East. They switched positions before the "Daughters of the Dawn" concert in Jan 2019. It was also around then that Midori changed her look and went blonde. And yes, part of the reason for the switch was to make the piano easier to incorporate.
