![LISA - ROCKSTAR (Official Music Video) REACTION [SHE'S BACK!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QBxE30vavMQ/mqdefault.jpg)
One of my favourite Metal songs..🐺
Asami headbanging is one of the cutest things in the world.
same with her "BLERGHH"
I’m just glad that LOVEBITES are keeping Thrash Metal alive. And their Thrash songs are more interesting than most that have come before.
Metal Goddesses return !.. Thank You Lovebites is ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Hammer of Wrath...one of my favorite song from Lovebites 🤘🐺🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lyrics...................Miho
Composition...... Miho/Mao
The Awakening composed by Miyako .
Glory to Lovebites 🤘🐺🔥
I think this live version is an encore from Five of a Kind.
They have done a Painkiller cover that you can find on youtube, but it's not a live version.
LOVEBITES - The Hammer Of Wrath lyrics:
What's the worst way to die？
Burning to death, or drowning？
Everyone laughs in derision
There's no hope at all
Why is the world rotting away
Howling in pain, they slowly die
All of the sorrow is murderous
The insanity
(Burn up)
They're calling me
(Burn up)
It's do or die
(Burn up)
Get ready for hell
(Bring down justice to the wicked)
Don't look away from the mistakes
Open your eyes, and see the truth
When lightning cracks the blackened sky
Listen to the screams of distress
It's like a bad dream but it's not
No way to get out, a living nightmare
Bring down the Hammer of Wrath
Who will be the next to burn？
God only knows the victim
Everyone knows they are innocent
All the hope is gone
In despair they pass away
There was no hope to begin with
Even the angels are giving up
Looking down on us
Will this night ever break dawn
(Bring down justice to the wicked)
SOLO: midori / mi-ya [miyako]
What's the worst way to die？
Burning to death, or drowning？
Everyone laughs in derision
There's no hope at all
Why is the world rotting away
Howling in pain, they slowly die
All of the sorrow is murderous
The insanity
(Burn up)
They're calling me
(Burn up)
It's do or die
(Burn up)
Get ready for hell
(Bring down justice to the wicked)
Don't look away from the mistakes
Open your eyes, and see the truth
When lightning cracks the blackened sky
Listen to the screams of distress
It's like a bad dream but it's not
No way to get out, a living nightmare
Bring down the Hammer of Wrath
Bring down the Hammer of Wrath
SOLO: mi-ya [miyako]
-----
lyrics: miho
music: miho & Mao
arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) & Mao
from Awakening From Abyss 2017
That’s a pretty grim sentiment.
Here for my daily Lovebites fix 🐺🤘
PAINKILLER FROM LOVEBITES
If you guys want to check out something different, Miyako has released her debut piano EP that contains piano covers of famous rock/metal songs. From the EP, there's a video at the Lovebites channel of her covering Helloween's "Eagle Fly Free". Experience how our genius interpreted and rearranged a classic power metal song into a beautiful classical music piece.
I put links to both Lovebites cover of it and Miyakos
@@evilvolts Yep, a double reaction would be awesome !
Love it. Even the songs I like the least by these ladies is so much better than alot of the songs out there today!
Lovebites are just head and shoulders above many, many other Metal bands.
Bloody Lovebites 🐺 I love'em
Nice reaction again, dudes! The best Japanese metal band ever! Best wishes from Bulgaria, Europe!
I love the vocal lines on this one. Above the Black Sea is probably my favourite at the moment.
Definitely you guys are a breath of fresh air!! As for concerts, I have seen them live twice, on the tour with Dragon force and at the Bloodstock festival!! However, when they return to the UK and they certainly will, I promised myself I will buy a ticket for each of their concerts! I have never done this before and it is on my bucket list!! Great reaction guys 😎🤟
Still one of my fav and one of the best by Lovebites👍🤘🤘
Miho! Miho! Miho! 🤘🐺🔥🔥🔥
LoveBites did a cover of “Pain Killer”, best Judas Priest cover ever! 🎸🔥🤘
No question that music is a very subjective matter. I really love this song and is one of my favorites by them. To me, there’s no need to compose complex songs to sound good. One example of this are The Rolling Stones and AC/DC; their music is really basic but it sounds great (it’s only rock’n roll but I like it). Another example of a simple song by Lovebites is “Dancing with the devil”; a kind of classic rock tune but that I like so much. I think one of the reasons shredding guitar almost died was the abuse of the technique; every guitarist wanted to be the fastest in the universe, so eventually that became boring. I also highly recommend Miyako’s piano version of Helloween’s “Eagle fly free” (on the TH-cam Lovebites official channel), released a couple of weeks ago.
You do not have to imagine how Painkiller would have sound with a bass like that. They did a cover when miho was still in the band.
Lovebites is teasing something for tomorrow. They might release a new Live video, and perhaps a promo for a new blu-ray.
Since they played only three new songs at their March revival concert, I think it is very likely that the DVD will be available from the "Judgment Day Tour" scheduled for August and September.
If one day Lovebites play in Alaska im sure even all the polar bears will go see the show😂😂😂😂😊
I don't know if all the bears, but surely all the wolves would go to the concert! 🤘🐺
@@alvarodiazprada5992 family don't count 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@arnaldotanta3630 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best metal band today… next song Winds of Transylvania… live (Heavy Metal Never Die)…Tokyo
Nemophila has similar numbers as Lovebites with 37k listeners, and 37k followers. Lovebites got 50k followers, they just need a band to take them on your in the US. I wish that band like Babymetal and Band Maid would take smaller Japanese band with them. But I guess it's different labels, which is not really a problem in the US.
Hopefully Lovebites will have an European tour next year, or at least do some festivals, and get the word going.
Lovebites need to hire some good PR guys that can do some tic tac and youtube shorts. Look at Hanabie that got 200k listeners on youtube, because of getting some traction on tic tac, and they are touring Europe in August.
I'm rather surprised you didn't like that song so much. That riff is one of the best metal riffs I've ever heard.
Agree. This is a great song. The guys have their "Lovebites" stomach full... ;-))
Hey guys, this song has incredible energy, the bass lines are phenomenal and take you by surprise. the solos aren't that complex but this song owes nothing to other compositions.
great reaction.
I got hooked with this song and with Break the Wall when I discovered Lovebites 3 years ago. I could not believe what I was hearing, I got feelings I hadn't had for many years in metal. Like when I discovered Maiden in the 80s. Perhaps this is the reason why both songs are my favorite ones. Anyways, like Jason, this became very quickly one of my top- metal bands ever, sitting next to Iron Maiden and Metallica. Keep rocking guys! I love watching your reactions of Lovebites
Lovebites will announce their next release tomorrow, because they teased the letter K, and I didn't realize this before know:

B - Battle of Damnation (Ep - 2018)
C - Clockwork Immortality (Album, 2018)

Knights Of Metal? 🤔
K - Knockin' On Heaven's Gate (DVD, Blu-ray, 2CD, Live in Tokio March 2023, 16 songs, 18 tracks) - August 23rd, 2023
LOVEBITES is top of my list for metal bands and I appreciate the great reviews you guys do. My only beef is that you don't give Haruna any love for her playing. She literally beats the shite out those poor skins. And the double kicks...come on...fast as hell.
This is one of those songs that if you had never heard of Lovebites, you would be praising to high Heaven and asking yourself who are these ultra talented ladies.😂
Lovebites did a cover of Judas priest Painkiller
Its the best cover of the song
Also cover of Eagle fly free by Halestorm
Eagle fly free was helloween's song
Twice this year I tried to get tickets for one of their shows in Japan and I was going to fly there if I got tickets, so hell yeah, if they come to the States literally anywhere I'll go see them here too. Probably more than once. Literally my favorite band ever. Would love to also see them in Japan though. This song is amazing, although they all are. I'll recommend Swan Song next: th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.html
Asami and Miyako headbanging when the song starts!
I love this song. The overall sound of it is awesome, and just because they don't go technically overboard on their solos is sort of unfair to make such comparisons. Regarding Painkiller, Lovebites cover is much better than Death's cover (which I love), and actually, I think I like Lovebites version better than Priest's version. No live version of the cover.
Other than SiriusXM playing "Judgement Day" and "Dissonance", I think their management team doesn't push them at all, and not even in Japan (so I've been told by those in Japan).
For Painkiller, I think Lovebites edges out Priest instrumentally by just a hair. Vocally, it is pretty close, but I have to go with Rob on that one, but again, just by a hair.
It's not that the management doesn't support them. small offices have limited power and money
the Metal genre itself has not become mainstream. especially western countries, only hiphop music is listened to. The only bands that are still popular in the West are bands that have already established popularity.
Japan has a truly innumerable number of rock bands. It is a band that has been successful as long as they have been able to hold live concert in japan.
Japan has the second largest music market in the world That's why the agency does not actively advertise overseas. It is natural decision to target the domestic market rather than overseas where success is not guaranteed.
At least in Japan, the music charts are not dominated by hiphop and R&B. they listen to rock and Metal more than the West.
Can't believe you mentioned Painkiller without knowing they did cover the song LOL
Lovebites did a cover of Helloween's Eagle Fly Free on their Awake Again live studio album and Miyako also covered it on her solo Piano album Etude Op.23
Lovebites Eagle Fly Free (Helloween Cover) th-cam.com/video/To21HILZvYE/w-d-xo.html
Miyako Eagle Fly Free (Piano Helloween Cover) th-cam.com/video/-h3BLRs0Xr4/w-d-xo.html
Yes, they should react to both cover in one reaction.
Second that !
this is how they opened their encore after playing an hour and a half at Lovebites speed. They followed it up with "Edge of the World" and "We the United", which are two monster songs. It's all a matter of context!
you won't find the classic Lovebites composition, i.e. 1 solo then another solo then a harmonized solo, in every Lovebites track. This track is all about rhythm and bass. It's a very good, fast track
If you guys want to listen to a true ballad… I recommend a song called Epilogue live from (Daughters of the Dawn)
Yes, that is a beautiful ballad with phenomenal wailing solos of the guitar duo. Here's the link to it. th-cam.com/video/JIAJYBuuKGM/w-d-xo.html
You can feel the presence of every musician, skill top notch, Haruna always be the engine of the band, thank you, lets go to the next song Glory to The World, studio or live version boths amazing, rolling fast without brake, amazing
Welcome back guys! Thank you so much for this reaction. What you've just said sounds like common sense to me, this is not one of their best songs... even though it's still ok, and their performances on stage - specially Asami's and Miho's - kind of save the day.
As a fan, I can appreciate this song and listen to it many times. I'd say about time, experience and growing that, as far as now, I like more the first works of the band than the last album - even though Judgement Day is a fenomenal work, I'm not complaining. It's techinically superior to their previous works, in my opinion. But this is my personal taste and experience with Lovebites so far: the song I like the most is still Shadowmaker! And I'm still in love with Frozen serenade and Break the wall... anyway their journey is still in the begginning, isn't it? Let's see what the future will bring to us. Lobebites forever!!!
"Best" can be quite subjective. I personally think this is one of their best songs ... but then I prefer Thrash over Power Metal.
@@1970PhoenixYup 🤘
for a title that you only moderately like, I think you've done a good job of shaking your head.
Lol. These ladies have set the bar so high! That riff is nasty! 🖖
🤘🏽LOVEBITES RULES🤘🏽
FYI - it is Mi YA ko Alsi, a heads up guys. I heard someone say 'Texas'. Hanabie has expanded their US Tour schedule and included new stops in Dallas and Houston in September. Get tickets Now before they sell out. I'm seeing them in Houston on 9/18. Another great reaction, BTW. 👍
🔥THE HAMMER OF LOVEBITES🔥 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
September Lovebites is in the US, grab your Tickets my friends :)
ASAMI sounds great singing in Japanese on the original version of BRAVEHEARTED, from the LOVEBITES EP - th-cam.com/video/BbFXnzhJiiQ/w-d-xo.html
Lovebites so far only toured Europe and Singapore. Just for your info.
Y'all should try Imperial Circus Dead Decadence
We actually did react to one of their songs a bit ago but unfortunately only I(Top left guy) liked them!
A favourite of mine 🐺🤘
Guys, check out ASTERISM Japanese three piece Metal Band songs Dawn, Church, Rising Moon, Blaze, Gunfire, all songs with 7string bass solo's...
I just discovered them through Spotify within the last four months, so I don't know what to attribute the drop-off to. I haven't listened to metal really since the mid-eighties, and really still don't, with certain exceptions. LOVEBITES is my #1 exception, and I have fallen hard for this band!!
Welcome to the Wolfpack !
!!!Lovebites 😀😀😀😀😀¡¡¡ Greetings from Argentina
you can hear all of there songs and the streak of bangers will never end they dont make a bad song period they are the most talented metal band i have ever heard please let me know what you think
Top right guy here. These ladies are unbelievable. We trying to slowly take in all their music because each song is it’s own experience! 🖖
@@joshbrewer4309 i get it for your guys channel but im saying the streak of great songs will never end because they havent made a bad song and they probably have like 70 songs now
In 2023, the tour in Japan will start in the summer. In an interview for a special LOVEBITES magazine project (2023), LOVEBITES' producer Sugiyama said that several bands have offered to accompany them on tour and he is considering which one to accept.
LOVEBITES' international tour will start in 2024.
In an interview for a magazine project after the resumption of activities, the girls also said they wanted to tour abroad.
There will probably be a USA and EU tour.
They actually are doing a US tour, if you can call 3 dates a tour.
They are playing in atlanta next fall
Now the new version of this is disponible
Greetings & thanks for more LOVEBITES. My analysis of your reaction & discussion is predicated on the 'flaw' inherent in "random selection reactions".
That being the lack of experiencing a band as the band chooses to present themselves.
LOVEBITES orders their songs deliberately to build energy, then 'ease up' to allow the audience to absorb comprehension & moderate saturation/exhaustion.
I consider "The Awakening>The Hammer of Wrath" as 'introduction', melded together consistently.
They open their first full CD release "Awakening From Abyss" and nearly all early performances including Wacken & Bloodstock 2018 with this pairing, a recorded Miyako instrumental 'walk-on' followed by Miho's thrash with several unique transitions featuring her bass & Haruna's drum/cymbal accents.
I see the solos as 'teasers' for what is to follow.
The video you watched is indeed the 20min-encore opener, then followed by prog>power-metal "Edge Of The World>We The United" for an uplifting finále to an hour&45min show.
The "random selection reactions" deprives you of the experience they bring when either listening to a release start-to-finish or seeing a performance beginning-to-end.
For me, everything they do is 'ordered-deliberately' bordering on 'metal-opera' formulation.
Picking songs at random obscures that 'formula'.
The "Trio of Miho" I have and will continue to 'lobby for' begins following 80min, 12-songs that for many bands would have been a complete show with "Glory to the World" as end of main-set, hence the pause prior to Asami's a Capella intro to "The Apocalypse"
Keeping in mind this is a performance in the midst of 'the f!@sco of doom' (c0v!d) ...
Knowing the subjects of the songs and just reading the setlist for the show can bring an understanding of their 'acknowledgement of challenges' and their 'encourage to self-empowerment' & 'overcoming adversity' known solely to the only people on Earth that have endured, survived & evolved following Atomic devastation.
In short, you guys (who I do appreciate) 'get' the music, but have not yet grasped the full 'message-to-humanity' of this band in 'the times' we now all live, worldwide.
Be it Atomic-devastation OR fabricated/propagandized bio-warfare/lockdowns coupled with destruction-of-personal-power by gov't/corporate (pharma) decree, LOVEBITES has been a secular 'godsend' 'preaching' reclamation of personal-power to embrace the beauty & wonders of humane-humanity & Earth-life while standing against the arbitrary control & 'dominion concepts' of a relatively few psychopathic-manipulators (empowered by counterfeit-trillion$ forcibly-injected into our labor-based-earnings economy).
The eclectic nature of LOVEBITES music/lyrics is inclusive of much of the lessons, the cautionary tales that can help us be aware & prepare for the challenges humanity is faced with in these days of technocracy/kakistocracy.
(ubiquitous-corruption breeds malicious-incompetence)
Okay, if a bit 'preachy' ... it is Sunday, after all &:-)
🐺Pack dreg👁
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
No lie this actually bangsssssss
You mention Painkiller. You do know they did a cover of JP's Painkiller, don't you?
Did you say Pain Killer?
You have to listen to Lovebites cover of Pain Killer.
" Wind's of Transylvania " .. Don't be Scared ! ... Just Do It !
I love your candid feedback, as you're in my top 3 list of reactors/reviewers on YT. As the very first song in their first album, this song is a favorite of both the band and the fans, as this was either opening song at Wacken Open Air (Germany) and Bloodstock (UK). Perhaps it's time to explore the depth and breadth of this band's musicianship - especially in the realm of their classical music infused metal that further sets them apart, as well as ballads (with Gary Moore/The Eagles/Jimi Hendricks-type riffs and Mariah Carey-like vocals).
1. Jason's favorite song, Thunder of Vengeance, has a brilliant orchestral cover that demonstrates how they achieved by themselves, what Metallica achieved in combo with the San Francisco Symphony. It's the fourth song on this EP (start minute 15:42 to end th-cam.com/video/cjl0fiQTvqE/w-d-xo.html).
2. Since you mentioned their chronology, their Nameless Warrior song/music video chronicles this with snippets of their musical journey: th-cam.com/video/eq2Rh5hMPSU/w-d-xo.html
3. Edge of the World, a ballad-of-sorts that can compete with Stairway to Heaven: th-cam.com/video/UZjxMjBop7w/w-d-xo.html
4. Swan Song (with Chopin intro and other pleasant surprises): th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.html
5. Ballad (with riffs to rival Hotel California with surprise ending)- Epilogue: th-cam.com/video/1ynnXDfEnnY/w-d-xo.html
6. Winds of Transylvania (with harmonic squeals that Zakk Wylde would envy) - two versions: VladLove Anime music video: th-cam.com/video/HsE4Ub_Pjh8/w-d-xo.html as well as their live performance: th-cam.com/video/qd_qop5j1bs/w-d-xo.html
7. Miyako's classical piano EP (Miyako Etude Op.23) playlist with her own arrangement/interpretation of 1. Battery (METALLICA) 2. Far Beyond The Sun (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) 3. Eagle Fly Free (HELLOWEEN) 4. The Loner (GARY MOORE) 5. Burn (DEEP PURPLE) 6. Addicted (LOVEBITES): th-cam.com/video/Z6JXuzW9fPk/w-d-xo.html
8. Rising: 3 versions: Acoustic Duo; Studio version; Live: th-cam.com/video/6nci8KtXJPk/w-d-xo.html

For me, after Judgment Day came out, I really thought they were going to tour the crap out of the album but they only played a few shows and only 2 videos and really nothing since, so people that were interested at first are probably loosing their attention on them now.
“The Solos were …ok”. I await your attempt at replicating them with bated breath.
It’s all subjective, I’m sure you have tasted food that you thought was okay that you couldn’t cook, as an example. But I guess we can’t have an opinion on something unless we know how to do that thing, right?
@@metalheadsjourney I can’t play a note on a musical instrument of any kind. But I understand and appreciate every note I listen to, and have an innate ability to differentiate good, bad, mediocre and virtuoso. Miyako and Midori are virtuoso musicians, and to effectively dismiss two solos with a rhetorical wave of the hand is both disrespectful and a touch arrogant.
i dont know if you heard of them but you guys should do a reaction to the 3 part instrumental band Asterism and their song Dawn it looks like it is taken in a live performance with a phone but he gets the female guitarists fingers and in my opinion she is one of the best guitarists in the world and in this video she is younger then 18 please let me know what you think
😁
(reminder) I have enjoyed your group reactions to LOVEBITES & some others.
I suggest LOVEBITES "Trio of Miho" LIVE 2021 th-cam.com/video/ttBL0Q744xA/w-d-xo.html
3 consecutive/segued songs from founder "Natural Born HeadBanger" Miho, you've not reacted to:
"The Apocalypse>M.D.O. (Most Devastating Observations)>Don't Bite The Dust>Holy War intro/fade" (15min)
subjects: Surviving Atomic bombing > cautionary wisdom > perseverance & self-empowerment.
Ends with segue into "Holy War/fade" which you saw 2020 LIVE, 2nd song of that show.
This 'trio' began 80min & 12 songs into Heavy Metal Never Dies concert, an example of their stamina, and "Holy War" is last song of main set. Hopefully all 4 of you will be present.
Thank you!
🐺
Salamualaekum tokyo 2:59 😂
Jason, yesterday LB dropped a live concert video of this song, with the new bassist Fami - her first such appearance. It's quite a spectacle: th-cam.com/video/pHrWRT0Jeac/w-d-xo.html
Lovebites did a cover version of "Painkiller", imo better than the orig. by Priest.
I say this every time I hear this song: you could take out all five ladies here, replace them with the classic lineup of Anthrax, and it would sound like it came off their Among the Living album. It’s hilarious how they can thrash better than the guys, and do it in heels.
And Painkiller would sound better with Miho’s bass? Anyone want to tell them about LoveBites’s cover of Painkiller, let alone Their cover of Eagle Fly Free, Helloween? 😉
Hey guys take into consideration they have already finished a 2 hour concert. And this was part of a 3 song encore. So they may have been tired. Just my 2 cents. Also If the rumors are true possibility of US tour next year. Nothing confirmed yet. In the meantime go see Band Maid they will be doing the 2nd part of there US tour in August.
Meh solos comment...
When the level has been set so high, and the commenter wishes he could play the "meh" solo.😑
56yo metal head musician here.
As long as the song gets me going and does something, I don't need to be "amazed" by every single song. Think about your favorite bands, and how many clunkers they've actually put out on albums compared to what Lovebites puts out. Hilarious.
Top right guy here. It’s just an observation. Doesn’t mean the song is bad. Also, who says I couldn’t play it? If you slow it way down and give me about a decade…who knows. 🖖
they will be at prog power usa 2024
they have toured the US i think twice
Lovebites haven't toured the US yet, they've done so quite a bit in Europe and parts of Asia. Only Miyako and Midori had attended NAMM back in 2020 in support of their sponsors. Having said that, I think it's only a matter of time before they tour the US.
@@boyzyu i could have sworn i have read that they already have
@@andrewvidmar3488 I'm pretty sure they haven't toured the US yet. As far as I can tell, the current batch of Japanese bands that have already toured (or have announced plans to tour) the US are Nemophila, Band-Maid, BabyMetal and Hannabie. Miyako mentioned in a video that if she could tour overseas now, she would jump on the next plane. I suspect it's domestic commitments of sorts that're keeping her and the band from doing that this year. Or maybe they're slowly easing Fami in and not embark on a hectic overseas tour yet ?
@@boyzyu true i guess that makes sense so for the past 25 yrs i had a top 5 list of metal/rock music and they were 1.Metallica, 2. AC DC, 3 Linkin Park, 4. Aerosmith and 5. Iron Maiden and in the past five years the 2-5 place has dropped out of my list and were replaced by 2. Lovebites 3. Nemophila 4. Band Maid and 5. The Warning metallica will probably always be number 1 because i have listen to them for the last 35 yrs
@@andrewvidmar3488 Yep, that list makes sense to me too. Let's hope Lovebites announce some overseas tour dates for next year soon. BTW, the band is going to announce something today (26 June Japan time). It's all over their social media and they teased with something that starts with "K". Keep an eye on that
Personally, I had the exact opposite opinion on the guitar solos. The first two were among the best in their entire catalogue, well-thoughjt out and fit what was needed for the song (just shredding for the sake of shredding with no real compositional quality to the solo - which is what we get in thrash solos more often than not - is very overrated), while the last solo was just kind ... meh. But then again, I'm not a huge fan of overdoing the wah pedal, and Miyako does kind of borderline overdo that on occasion. For me, this is one of my top 5 Lovebites songs. Thrashy, but not too thrashed out or abrasive.
Wrong. ORCHID are a good Stoner Rock band. You just need to be in the right “state of mind.” And they have more than one song.
“Snorechid”
Please finally do Swan Song! It’s one of their most reacted songs and it shows Miyako’s amazing piano playing skills
Main reason why it's falling is because they will not come to United States. I've noticed that. They have millions of fans over here but yet they can't even come and see them that's because of their touring group only allows them to tour around that part of the world. Just like originally for Babymetal and Band-Maid ,things took off for them. Maybe one day they'll change their minds. I think children and husbands also have something to do with it as well.
Not true. The band says they want to come to the USA.
If I am subscribed it is that I like mostly your reactions. But not this one. Midori's solo is average? I think a multitude of guitarists would like to play it like her, so easily, quickly, effortlessly and live on stage! We shouldn't always ask them for more given the level that is theirs. I'm 71 and I've seen dozens of gigs, even the biggest bands. None have ever reached the level of Lovebites, not even Metallica for whom I have the greatest respect. If you look at the comments about Lovebites on YT you will see that I am not the only one to say that it is the best band in the history of metal by their creativity, their irreproachable technique, their versatility. To convince you, react to Epilogue, Edge of the world, Scream for me among others. All of this is said without animosity.
Look. They have set the bar so high. That solo vs. the others that we’ve heard from them…..it’s just not as good. Doesn’t mean it’s bad 🤷♂️
Miho Miho Miho! least fav one word "Inspire"
The worst song⁉️
