If you are interested in helping support the ROCK AND ROLL RELIC channel - I would greatly appreciate it if you might buy me a coffee at the link below. Thanks for helping this old fart continue to put out more content! Thank you!!!

Now you can understand why the last comment I left you fully utilised the “more” facility, and then some. As a fan of guitar oriented rock, the very first time I heard LOVEBITES (note, the capital letters are their actual title) I immediately recognised the melodies, the harmonies, vocal prowess and how remarkably tight the band was. I decided that I would follow them, literally, 30 seconds (again literally) into the song.
Every word of praise myself or any other Wolfpack member lavishes on these women are genuine, heartfelt, without exaggeration and fully deserved. You’ve now watched 3.57% of their entire output, and I guarantee you that the remaining 96.43% is of exactly the same standard whether studio or live.
I have never in my life been so dedicated to a single band than I am to LOVEBITES. I consider myself a supporter rather than a fan and as you can see, will gush endlessly in praise of their music, their personalities, their demeanour, devotion to their fans….and on and on.
I think you may have given us a hint as to the next reaction, but I might be reading too much into what you said and how you said it. Suffice to say, if it *isnt* Swansong, then when you do eventually watch the version with Miyako playing part of Chopin’s Revolutionary Etude as a (live only) prelude, keep an eye out for two things. Firstly the half second drop…total silence, before the final verse and secondly, keep an eye on Asami performing the dying swan from Swan Lake…not ostentatiously and you may not notice it at all the first time because other, equally dramatic things are happening, musically, at the same time.
Best band ever. No exceptions.
Yeah, Lovebites fans are a hardcore group. Wolfpack is world-wide. Diverse group of people, united for Lovebites.
You can't really judge Lovebites from only 1 or 2 songs. Their songwriting covers a pretty wide spectrum of rock and metal.
LOVEBITES - A Frozen Serenade lyrics:
Crystal tears Falling from the skies
Veiling fears The emptiness inside
Time is just passing by
Killing me under the soft twilight
A frozen melody
Of doves and ravens dancing in melancholy
A distant memory
If only this snow could erase the pain
I'd wake up in a serenade
One life ends
And one life begins
Evanesce
To our origins
When I'm lost on my way
Lead my heart and guide me with your grace
A frozen melody
Of doves and ravens dancing in melancholy
A distant memory
If only this snow could erase the pain
I'd wake up in a serenade
Just like a dream, just like a bird
I'll keep on singing out
Even if my voice cannot reach you
Seasons may pass, but its beauty will never fade away
All living things are precious and irreplaceable
Just like a dream, just like a bird
I'll keep on singing out
Even if my voice cannot reach you
White butterflies are fluttering under the silver sky
If only I could wish to see you once more

The song is probably their best work. Having said that, none of their songs are throwaways and there is tight competition in their own catalogue. But Frozen Serenade is something else. For me at least.
A Frozen Serenade is certainly a stand out, and is one of the few Lovebites songs that the reactors themselves label a masterpiece. I think when you can add so many different parts, and make it all work together nicely, is when a song is truly special. While typical songs, don’t stand out as much.
Asami is a 4' 10" stage Napoleon who controls the crowd and the band from start to finish. She is quiet, sweet and classy off stage but put her on stage with a mic and watch out!! Haruna at 4' 9" hits harder, faster and longer than any MMA fighter you will ever see, her fanbase within the Wolfpack is truly rabid (never ever say anything negative or they will find you and strap you to her kit for the beating of your life..LOL). Miyako on piano and guitar was 4/5 months pregnant here but went full till through the entire set. Midori shows that while she is a shred queen she can handle the acoustic like magic then shift gears (BTW on the studio version Miyako handles the acoustic but LIVE they need her on the piano so Midori (the ameteur body builder) jumps is). Miho on bass was the founder of this insanely talented band (came with Haruna from Destrose the legendary band that has spawned many of the current great female bands in Japan) she left for personal reasons after this tour and now they have the pheon Fami at 21 stepping right in. Want to see how insane the talent is: Swan Song with Chopin piano etude intro th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.html be ready to be floored by Miyako's piano playing. She is better on piano than the guitar to many of us in the Wolfpack (fanbase).
Asami has classical ballet training. Like you said, her moves are so graceful and elegant. The dead giveaway is her arm movements. She knows exactly what she is doing and is a master at working the crowd. One of my favorite things you will see her do, is at the exact perfect moment in a song, grab the upper layers of her dress and flip them up to head level. With the perfect lighting and camera angles that they use, it is truly beautiful. NO other Metal band has this! There are so many next level things they do like this for the TOTAL experience.
Note to reactor, I am posting this here because a vile troll who has been attacking the band, its fans and reactors with horrible and libelous comments, has appeared here in this comments section.
Lovebites fans, the SAME troll that we know of is now in this comments section. No prizes for guessing who it is. Here is a quick current summary of this troll who possesses multiple trolling YT accounts (for those who are already familiar with this summary post, my latest update is in point (7) below) :
(1) He has so far been banned/blocked from 17 other reaction channels and counting for persistent trolling.
(2) He went to the LIVE premiers of both "M.D.O." and "We the United" to post horrible and libelous comments in the LIVE chat about the band. For example, he accused Asami of being an alcoholic.
(3) He has created AT LEAST 10 fake Lovebites accounts and used those accounts to post terrible comments in other bands' reactions/LIVE premiers while masquerading as "genuine Lovebites fans". His perverted goal is to create tension between the different fan communities.
(4) This SAME vile troll has created another (AT LEAST) 5 new fake Lovebites accounts recently and used those accounts to attack a Nemophila MV release "in the name of Lovebites". Again, this is designed to sow discord amongst the fanbases.
(5) He has created AT LEAST 3 fake BabyMetal accounts (2 of them not new to us) and posting "nice/positive" comments in their reactions so that he can claim that these accounts are "genuine BabyMetal fans", and then eventually use them to attack Lovebites or other bands' reactions/LIVE premiers. Again, the purpose of this vile troll is to create conflict between the different fanbases.
(6) Also recently, he even went to a Blackpink reaction using AT LEAST 3 fake Lovebites accounts to post his despicable nonsense. Again, the purpose is to create conflict between the fanbases of different bands/groups.
(7) This despicable troll is also trying to infiltrate the Wolfpack with some "new" trolling accounts that were created between 2020-2023, and some even older than 2020. I believe these "new" trolling accounts are meant to sow discord WITHIN the Lovebites community. Here are some of the reasons why :
(a) So far, these accounts have only posted a few "positive" comments here and there, so we should just let them be. But please be alert for any attitude/behavioral changes.
(b) Also, I have noticed some of these "new" trolling accounts that have been posting "positive" comments so far, have started to attack the reactors themselves, making the Wolfpack look bad in the eyes of the reactors. So watch out for this trolling tactic as well.
(c) Some of these "new" trolling accounts will eventually play "good cop"/"bad cop" and they'll "converse" among themselves to attempt to create further deception and chaos. For example, some will pretend to be "pro-Lovebites" or "pro-reactor", and others will pretend to be "anti-Lovebites" or "anti-reactor". This vile troll has tried to do something similar before, so be alert for this.
(d) Continued from point (c) above - one trolling permutation which has happened quite a lot recently is - the anti-Lovebites trolling YT accounts ("bad cops") will attack the reactors if the reaction is favorable to Lovebites, and they will "praise" the reactors if the reaction is not favorable to Lovebites. The reverse is true for the pro-Lovebites trolling YT accounts ("good cops"). So reactors, please be aware of this happening in the comments sections of your reactions. Again, no prizes for guessing who the "bad cop" is in this comments section.
(e) This malicious troll will also use these "new" accounts to cause confusion and chaos by attempting to incriminate genuine Lovebites fans as "trolls". He has already tried this before, so also be aware of this and be on your guard.
(8) Will update the communities and the reactors when there is new info available.
Lovebites to me is in rare air. I've been listening to metal for over 50 years, and I can honestly say there is no other band I have ever heard where I could potentially call so many of their songs a masterpiece and not be wrong. This song is one of them.
👏 _Brilliant_ comment. 👍 Absolutely. Lovebites have an enormous rate of masterpieces in their discography. Globally spoken, they are a hidden gem.
The other all-female Japanese Metal band I appreciate is Nemophila, but they are "different". Lovebites maybe are more "arty", Nemophila more "punky". But both bands are _phenomenal_ . I recently bought Nemphila's current album, "Evolve", just like that, out of blind trust. It will be full of masterpieces, as always. No need to test it beforehand. I _never_ did that with Iron Maiden albums, though I am a lifelong Iron Maiden fan.
Thank you for reacting and supporting Lovebites, the most talented ladies in metal.
LOVEBITES, MY FAVORITE METAL BAND, and this song is Masterpiece for me, thanks for your reaction.
Asami's background is ballet. She trained from the age of 3 until in her teens she was told she was too small. She moved to R&B vocals after that, and, thankfully for us, she came to Lovebites. Various perfomances you get to see glimpses of all of that, this one, her ballet background in particular, but you're right, she uses it everywhere. Her stage presence, grace and crowd control is amazing.
So,, I heard you say Haruna drum cam. Ok then! There's a few out there, like this one th-cam.com/video/KMRWDSd6Tqc/w-d-xo.html I wish we had one from a live show though, making use of all of the camera angles we have on her.
Going back to Asami. She will grow on you. She won't be denied lol. Her voice is amazing for this style of music, I think, but I am clearly biased. They're my favorite band I have ever come across. So much talent. You're right though. It's a pretty normal reaction from most people to be surprised at Asami's voice fronting this style of music, but it really works. You can hear her R&B background in some songs like Empty Daydream (the 2019 version is great), Epilogue and Edge of the World (the "E" songs). She's a fan of thrash metal, actually, so one of their threashier songs is good to fit in there somewhere, something like Thunder Vengeance th-cam.com/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/w-d-xo.html or Break the Wall th-cam.com/video/5Pc0XK0lNmU/w-d-xo.html
This is the most talented band on earth..
Great reaction. Asami has her ballerina background. If you mean Chopin Revolutionary Etude by a classical piece, it is Swan Song but you have to take this specific version th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.html because the other versions have no Chopin intro. If you mean Liszt La Campanella, it's Lost In The Garden th-cam.com/video/HfPGDVx3d14/w-d-xo.html, or if you mean Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No.2, it is The Final Collision (live but audio track) th-cam.com/video/9VKrcsyQPUQ/w-d-xo.html. She also plays Chopin Ballade No.1 in G Minor th-cam.com/video/jkwxNbOFvk4/w-d-xo.html. Enjoy!! Oh, BTW, Miyako has released a CD album as her private project covering classic metal numbers on piano as piano etudes. It's a great work of art and you can find them with a key word "Miyako Etude Op.23" in TH-cam.
How many true masterpieces are there in the history of rock? A dozen? Maybe twenty, max? I’m not talking about merely great songs. There may be a few hundred of those (out of millions of songs). A masterpiece is much more. It combines beautiful composition with brilliant execution. It tells a story, taking you through a range of emotions until it overwhelms you. For classical music fans, the iconic example is Beethoven’s 9th Symphony. The best example of something shorter and more comparable to a rock song, might be Ravel’s “Bolero”. Among actual rock songs, I would name “A Day in the Life” by the Beatles; “The End” by the Doors; “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen; “Kashmir” by Led Zeppelin; “Layla” by Derek and the Dominoes; “The Great Gig in the Sky” by Clare Torrey and Pink Floyd; “Starless” by King Crimson; and “Ghost Love Score” by Nightwish. Importantly: many of the greatest rock groups never produced a masterpiece. Lovebites, in five short years, have given us several, and I think this rivals “Swan Song” as their greatest.
I think your next Lovebites will be Swan Song with the Chopin Intro. As for a follow-up after Swan Song, in a similar vein with an awesome piano intro would be their chef’s kiss performance of Lost in the Garden. Buy the ticket, take the ride.😊 Here’s the link as it’s hard to find lost among all the reactions…

My friend if you dont get it you must be friggin brain dead! This is without any doubt the best band on the planet right now.......period!! In my 65yrs I've never heard anything better than these ladies. Sheer talent! Never heard a better band live. Incidentally they all play piano/keyboards, Miyako is a concert level pianist and the rest of the ladies arent bad either! A band that can perform anything better live than in studio (with all the added shit) well just saying I've not heard their equal in 65yrs in metal or any other genre you wish to put forward. These girls are the real deal! No gimmicks just pure talent.
Oh, Relic, you have been lovebitten!
Your attitude to this band - and other deep dives you do - is admirable. Open mind and a second listen will get you far down the Japanese rabbit hole!
Yes, Asami is a stage general. Note also how stoic Miyako is. Many reactors find her almost too cool, this is her stage persona. She has her own UYT-channel and is really all smiles and very forthcoming - and a guitar tech nerd to boot.
Haruna plays with immense economy and spend a lot of time during their recent hiatus working on getting even more precise in her movements.

Enjoy!
I believe, this show was after already one year covid break in march 2021 under restrictions loke no cheering, every second seat has to be empty, masks. it also turned out to be their last show for two more years and the last one with founder, metal backbone and bassplayer miho. guitarist and keyboarder miyako was in the the second semester of her pregnancy. I was afraid, that the band could break up completely. but they found a new fantastic bassplyer, fami. finally in march 2023 they went on stage in tokyo and asami yelled: "we are back!!!!". I recommend therefore their song "the hammer of wrath" live 2023 from their official channel, which contains this historical moment. is it really surprising, that they also improved during the break? now they are lovebites 2.0!
"a frozen serenade" is a real masteerpiece. song by song you will realise their real greatness. thank you for your great reaction.
The seats in the hall were empty not because of restrictions related to Covid. It's just that nobody is interested in their insignificant creativity.
"The Hammer Of Wrath" LIVE 2023: th-cam.com/video/pHrWRT0Jeac/w-d-xo.html
This is by far the best song written by Lovebites.....is a real Masterpiece. Welcome to the Wolfpack !
The lyrics are like a hymn and deeply moving. Some people are saying that Lovebites are one of the best heavy metal/power metal band playing in the world today; who am I to argue with that!
We love our Metal Queens 🤘. When you grew up on 80's metal and things in the United States went to hell for metal in the mid 90's and you find rock and metal bands from Japan like Lovebites you are overjoyed to have such a talented band do music you first fell in love with.
My experience exactly.
Some people say that Lovebites is a factory of masterpieces, and I agree.
👏👍 They are a stroke of luck for Metal, like Nemophila.
Welcome to the Wolfpack 🐺 This song is a masterpiece. Asami sung R&B and Soul before Lovebites and had about 16 years of ballet when she was young.
Recommend Swan Song with Chopin Intro Live.
excellent reaction, all of these women have classical training, and all of them can play the piano
they all composed songs for the group, this one is written with lyrics and music by the singer Asami (the music with an artist named Mao) Asami before singing studied many years to be a ballet dancer, and in this video she proves it 😊 I am waiting for your reaction to " Swan Song" with the introduction of Chopin
performed by Miyako, is wonderful
Welcome to the Wolfpack. The excitement never ends...
Theatrical beauty of the highest calibre. 🐺🏴🤘
Reason for the piano in the background LOVEBITES - Swan Song [+Chopin Intro] (Five of a Kind, 21/02/2020) th-cam.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/w-d-xo.html
Behold the goosebumps inducing power of Lovebites.😊❤😊❤😊
They are all talented. They are awesome and unique in the world.
Everything about that performance is beautiful perfection. I love Lovebites.
Asami took ballet
If this performance doesn't get someone lovebitten, then there is something not quite right going on in their head. A masterpiece of a performance of one of their best songs, this is a great reaction and welcome to the wolfpack! 😃🤘🐺🐺🐺
You’re really lucky to be in the begining of the discovery of this amazing and unique band. Lucky guy !
60+ songs to go... "Welcome to the rabbit hole"...
do you get now, why we are rabid...? 😎
just crazy, dedicated, fervent, outspoken..... you know... rabid :)
Haruna is a nuclear power plant. She is so ergonomic in her playing. ❤❤❤
Elite musicians across the board, including now-bassist Fami! Great reaction. Swan song w/Chopin intro live 2020 is a must.
Swan Song? Yeah, for sure! 😁 👍One of their many _masterpieces_ . 😊
Good to see you back for more LOVEBITES. And what a belter you chose. The concert this was taken from was performed under covid restrictions which seriously curtailed the crowd interaction and I feel for the band having to perform in such subdued conditions. And just to add to their considerations Miyako, guitar and piano, is 4 and a half months pregnant at the time. Such was their determination to perform for the fans. So yes many of us are very passionate about them 😊.
Asami is trained classical Ballet and musicelwise doing R&B before
Great reaction Sir.. Over 60 to go, if you Dare... Looking forward to more of the same.. Best wishes from France..
This song is a genuine masterpiece - one of the best metal songs ever written.
As All- Female band's out there, I love, support, and listen to Lovebites and The Warning! ❤❤🔥🔥
TROLL >>> @ingopek5485
He's not even a troll. He's a poor sociopath. It is the problem of lack of folic acid during pregnancy
The sight of Miho standing and playing is so cool.
Now that you’ve heard their Frozen Serenade, watch Lovebites SET THE WORLD ON FIRE - th-cam.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/w-d-xo.html
I’m right there with you in considering the merits of picking something up.
Thank you for your reaction to LOVEBITES.
That's a great impression.
Thank you for your continued support of LOVEBITES.
Asami(Vo) has been studying classical ballet from the age of 2 to 18.
Asami (Vo) was originally an R&B and soul singer.
She had never listened to metal music at all, which she says was "music from another dimension.
Discover another of Asami's talents, having moved on from R&B and soul.
She has a wide range of belts from low to high(e5), and is able to perform them with certainty.
I have always felt that Asami is both a vocalist and an actress.
Asami can sing in a variety of ways depending on the song.
To discover Asami's true vocal talents in R&B and soul, check out the songs below.
You can then check Asami's wide-range belt from low to high frequencies.
3E Check out her songs (all live)
"Edge of the World"
"EPILOGUE",
"Empty Daydream"
And "Rising"(MV)
You can listen to a wide range of metal genres on LOVEBITES.
You can see not only Asami's singing ability, but also the breadth of her composition, lyrics, and arrangement.
At LOVEBITES' live shows, there are several songs in which Miyako plays the intro on the piano, and the intro contains a fusion of metal and classical music, as well as inspiration from classical music.
Wolfpack here 🤘
you ain´t seen nothing yet -this band is on a completely different level that very easily becomes an obsession !!!
Every time this song comes up its just goosebumps, fantastic masterpiece!!

OMG... I wanted to comment on these comments here... and after the umpteenth one, I just gave up on it. Just too many. 😂 Like you say: " _Overwhelming passion and love from their fans._ " And that love and passion is absolutely justified, for Lovebites _save_ Metal, they play the best Metal possible, and they blend it with other genres, and they do it masterfully, and even spread joy and lift spirits with their skillfulness and their lyrics. Could you wish for more? Another Japanese all-female Metal band doing this is "Nemophila", but that is another story. 😉
"The sun is rising in the east", I always say, when it comes to Lovebites and Nemophila. "As in nature, so in Metal." 😊🐺💮
Seen all the greats live from Dylan to Zeppelin and prefer Lovebites. Skynyrd dueling guitars have taken a back seat to M&M
Thanks for reacting to LOVEBITES (The GOAT OF HEAVY METAL & ROCK MUSIC) IMHO.. This is the song THAT WILL BE HARD OR WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO COVER BY ANY BAND NOW & IN THE FUTURE because of the complexities that these talented musicians have put in the song. To see them switching from dual guitar harmonies to piano & acoustic guitar (Miyako & Midori) & the relentless pace of the rhythm section (Miho & Haruna) & to put icing on the cake the soulful, angelic voice & graceful Ballerina moves of Asami will never be able to be copy by any band. I guarantee you that. I'm a rock & roll relic like you and followed all these popular rock legends all over the world for the last 50 years (Past & Present), but everything changed when I discovered LOVEBITES 5 years ago and now I'm just happy & contented to listen to this band all the time and never gets tired of hearing their songs. This is ONCE IN A LIFETIME BAND that comes every million years, and I'm very happy to witness it during my lifetime. LOVEBITES FOREVER... Melbourne , Wolfpack.
Great reaction bro. Legendary Lovebites 🤘👍
Their best.
Their Alpha song.
And is extremely hard to choose from, because their discography is top of the top!
Keep on enjoying Lovebites and sharing your journey with us.
His journey has only just begun...
The same passion that many commentators feel towards Lovebites, I do feel towards the Warning.
I might never become fan of lovebites but I do admire their talent.. and respect their fans passion. 🙏
One of the best live performing heavy metal band!!! Midori💚💚💚💚💚 miho💜💜💜💜💜
Because Electric Pentagram came out in winter, Asami wanted a sad winter ballad. Miyako played the acoustic guitar on the recording, but Live Midori has to play it, because Miyako is busy on the piano!🤘
Fantastic, yeah The Warning and Lovebites are my favorites bands right now, and they’ve been for around 5 years, since I first heard them. So it took you less time than I thought for you to say “I’m part of the Wolfpack now” (I’m not at all surprised though) yeah 😎 very welcome amigo. You’re just starting to get to know them, get ready for lots of wonderful songs and just amazing professionalism and cuteness from this great great ladies. LOVEBITES 🐺 🐺🐺🐺🐺

This is an epic masterpiece. I challenge any other metal or rock band to replicate this performance LIVE, and to this level of musicianship. There're a few LIVE songs where Miyako (lead guitarist/pianist on stage left) plays a piano intro, but I believe the one you've mentioned is "Swan Song with Chopin intro" LIVE : th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.html (Note, there're a few versions of this song on YT, this link is the one with the Chopin intro).
Today is the day,shadowmaker,under the red sky all live..check them out..
Thank you for your reaction to Lovebites!🤘🏼
Best and definitely most talented band on the planet right now..........period!! (P.S they all play keyboards, even Haruna (drummer)) I am older than yourself and this is without a doubt the best band I've ever heard/seen, so much talent in one band! And now the best bass player in the world (Fami) has joined the best band on the planet cmon metal bands make an effort to at least rise to making a contest of it, these overly talented ladies are wiping the floor with any other metal band around. Beauty, talent, skill no one comes close. Listen to all 65+ tracks of theirs, not one average track in their repertoire, but quite a few masterpieces. Lovebites would not be Lovebites without Asami.
Welcome to the Wolfpack, and thank you for supporting Lovebites!!🤘
🤟🏻🔥Lovebites🐺Perfection🔥🤘🏻
Gracias por la reacción a mi banda favorita, son únicas y grandiosas, y a esta majestuosa canción.
Bow to the gatekeepers. Moving on.
Easily the best metal band on the planet today. Every player is a super star in their own right - but Miyako the dark-haired guitarist (mostly) is a virtuoso on the piano too! Asami is the stage General of the band and her voice is STUNNING… 🤘🎸🐺 What you will soon realize is Lovebites is a live band that does recordings.. all their live videos are exceptional and every one of them shows you just a little more. Try Swan Song w/Chopin intro and Hammer Of Wrath to see different faces of the band. 👍
LOVEBITEは、５人共、常に今までにない新しい発想でHMに取り組んでいる。 色々意見もあるだろうが、少なくとも私は何の違和感もなく彼女たちの作り出したステージにただただ感動するばかりである。この５人の天才はまだまだこれから私たちを驚かせてくれるだろう❤
Ιs it possible to write a song like this and not be known.....? Αnd yet it is.....🙄
Masterpiece.
Welcome to the wolfpack mate 👍
You picked the right song ......
(Share your opinion on her voice, first time hearing..kinda shocked but thinking this could be good/special... and well we know where that ends up)
(I usually will only listen to LOVEBITES reaction/video's or 70's metal)
Please pay attention to the detailed and delicate outro of this song.
This Band is Up there With Dream Theater and Liquid Tension
Just a little side note, if you had not noticed, Miyako, the guitarist with the long black hair, was 4 or 5 months pregnant when this performance took place.
Fun facts: This concert in March 2021 was postponed and under heavy Covid-19 restrictions for the audience. Thus Miyako (piano, guitar) was 4 - 5 months into pregnancy. No problem playing a show, that lasted two hours (and jumping around between guitar and piano)...
I have always told people that Asami has a Pat Benetar vibe about her. Both are so versatile and powerful. And FYI get a reach and grab tool or a magnet. 🤘🏼🤪🤪🤘🏼
👍👍👍!!!
Miho Miho Miho!

The “Superfecta” of Hard Rock and Metal: Band-Maid / The Warning, and Jinjer / Lovebites -- all pushing their core genres into the next realm! 🤘 🤘 🤘🤘Thx, Scott!
Japanese female BEST drummers HARUNA(LOVEBITES), AKANE(BAND-MAID), MURATA TAMU(NEMOPHILA), JUNNA/NAGISA(TRIDENT-JAPAN), HANA/YURI(GACHARIC SPIN), SAE/CHIKA(HANABIE), react to their MV/Live songs and watch their drummers....
JUNNA now freelance drummer do cover drum Pain Killer(Judas Priest), LUX AETERNA(Metallica),Ghenghis Khan(Iron Maiden), DRAGONFORCE songs, DEEP PURPLE song...
And there is also the jazz drummers Kanade Sato and Senri Kawaguchi.
Midori feeling it at 8:54.
What unthinkable suffering she faces. Midori once again forgot the notes, and now imagines Miyako beating her after the performance. You may not know this, but Midori took up sports in order to eventually try to fight back Miyako’s tyranny.
@@ingopek5485 I can think of two reasons why someone would choose to spend their time being a troll.
1.) Immaturity
2.) Mental Illness
Which is it for you? Maybe both?
It took a long time for me to get used to Asami’s voice. Recently her voice has matured. To me it looks like she’s using more chest voice so her singing sounds richer.
The Wolfpack is indeed a solid and faithful fan base - but just wait until you react to Nightwish (Ghost Love Score, live at Wacken 2013, is the recommended starting point) - you'll find the might of the Nightwish Army blows your mind - oh, and you'll have entered a whole new world of Symphonic Rock . . . .
Great reactions, Scotty - much appreciated by another aging rocker.
There should be a warning given to all these reactors not to be too harsh on Asami. Because the fans tend to take offense when the the critic critical opinion is uncalled for
I am a member of TWA and thought I would give this a listening, I mean I have heard how fantastic this band is. I am always fair and true to what I think when I hear something, and this is not something I want to hear again. They can play their instruments, but that´s not enough for me. There is no passion and no soul in it. I can´t rock out to beauty. It´s not bad but not over the top either. It is what I expected it to be. That´s my honest reaction but I can understand why some really like it. Your reactions are always good though and if you had not reacted to this I probably would not have listened to it at all. Thank you.
Do you know Japanese people personally? What does soul and passion look like in Japanese people? Do you really think these young musicians could create, sing, dance and perform such music for over 7 years without soul and passion? I really like The Warning. But I also know if I have Mexican, Japanese, American, English or German artists in front of me.
I love the differences and the diversity ...
Great reaction. My suggestions, in no particular order: Soldier Stands Solitarily, Shadowmaker, Nameless Warrior, Epilogue and my two absolutly favs Rising and When Destiny Align. Another sub, like your quality on the recording. :)
Thank you for the sub. Glad you're enjoying

when gary moore meets prince!
:)
asami's english is not good but a bit lovely
Japan has a good amount of good bans - Gacharic Spin and East of Eden to continue your journey.
Another rabbit hole you may like to go down have a look at the band Nightwish start with any track from there live show at Wacken 2013.

That’s what the Asami Queen of Fake Notes sounds like.
Classical meets Priest? But are they always so expressionless?
Hello ingopek 2
It is a sad and melancholy song. No reason to smile.
Are you sure about that?@@AliciaCardenas-cm4nh
