We are all fans of the bands you mentioned. Lovebite's fans are not new fans to rock and metal. We love these Japanese women like crazy because they play our 80's metal on an musical level that we don't have anymore with our youngsters here in Europe. I think it's no different with you guys in the States. In western countries, rap and hip hop has taken over the young listeners. Here in Germany, rock and metal is considered "pensioner music" by young people. From Lovebites, Band Maid, Nemophila and more, these Japanese women are the future of Rock N Roll. Not just in Japan, but worldwide. We need good young musicians, but young people learning to play instruments also need young role models. With only 60-80 year old role models (as good as they are), Rock 'n' Roll has been sidelined by the youth of the world. We hope you two will help with the great task of bringing rock music (or handmade music, including blues and jazz) back into the front row. Let's go to friends!
I'm not overly impressed with some of the music coming out of the states lately. I've started enjoying more Russian, Ukrainian and Australian metal bands of late. I can now add Japanese.
@@truebrodown Some Backgound: All female Heavy Metal bands have been a big 'thing' in Japan since the '80's. There has been an All Female Metal Festival every April in Tokyo since 1987.
I feel what you feel. Here in the US, rock and metal have been abandoned by record companies and entertainment channels since 2000. Rock radio stations are running playlist of songs published 30, 40 years ago. Young rock musicians need stages and rock music need young stars.
Bassist Miho wrote the foundation for “Break The Wall” while guitarist and keyboardist Miyako added color to the composition. Miyako wrote the solo in the middle with Gary Moore in mind. Lyrics: Miho Music: Miho and Miyako Arrangement: Miyako/LoveBites
LOVEBITES - Break The Wall lyrics: (DIE) No sign of my time Cause I wish to live another life (BY) Who will save my poor soul? Crying alone in a dim hole (MY) Can't believe it's real Cause in the end, everything is gone (SIDE) How should I live from now? Find myself staring at the walls Tonight, I'll break the wall It's now or never Now, I'm on my own I've gotta get free Bite, I'll break the chain Run to my shelter Make it out alive I have to break through the wall (DIE) No sign of my crime Got my scars during wartime (BY) Who's the one that did it Deadly venom eating me inside (MY) Spent my life in vain I can't forget everything I've done (SIDE) I swear to my hatred Find myself staring at the walls Tonight, I'll break the wall It's now or never Now, I'm on my own I've gotta get free Bite, I'll break the chain Run to my shelter Make it out alive I have to break through the wall (DIE) No sign of my time Cause I wish to live another life (BY) Who will save my poor soul? Crying alone in a dim hole (MY) Can't believe it's real Cause in the end, everything is gone (SIDE) How should I live from now? Find myself staring at the walls Tonight, I'll break the wall It's now or never Now, I'm on my own I've gotta get free Bite, I'll break the chain Run to my shelter Make it out alive I have to break through the- I have to break through the- I have to break through the wall ----- lyrics: miho music: miho & miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)
Mee-yah-koh is how you pronounce her name. She has been nicknamed The Golden Touch by the band members because she is musical savant. She composes the majority of their songs and she is also a master of the piano and keyboard.
Miyako? Near half of music. No lyrics except group-credit on "Holy War". Why exaggerate in ways which diminishes acknowledgment of the other's contributions?
@@dregeye I suggest you take another look. She is responsible for the music (ie composition, as the man said) on 5 tracks on Awakening, 5 tracks on Immortality and 6 tracks on Pentagram. It’s a similar story with arrangement. She’s not a lyricist. Composition usually refers to the musical instruments. Writing usually means lyrics. The man said “composes”…..
@@alekhidell You are welcome to exaggerate in any way you choose. Songs have lyrics. She does not write lyrics. There would be no "songs", only a collection of instrumentals if hearing Miyako's wonderful contributions. What? You think Miyako doesn't get enough credit already? Why distort listeners/reactors views by ignoring the OTHERS' contributions? Why only mention one contributor, the music, and ignore who wrote the LYRICS that makes that music a "song"? Maybe you take another look at my QUESTION? "Why exaggerate in ways which diminishes acknowledgment of the other's contributions?" You did not answer that question, and since Miyako didn't write the lyrics to "Break The Wall", Chad's comment diminishes acknowledgement of Miho's contribution, which makes it a song, writing the music AND lyrics to the vocal portion while Miyako's contribution is the music she solos over, possibly the transition back to Miho's music that has the vocal, yet Miho got NO CREDIT from Chad. THAT is diminishing acknowledgment of the others' contributions, no? My INTENT is for each band member to be recognized for their contributions. I LOVE Miyako's contributions. I LOVE the others' contributions. I'm tired of reading all about Miyako, Miyako, Miyako and the others being ignored. "Break The Wall" is a good example, considered one of LOVEBITES 'thrashiest' by many people's definition. A HEAVY song about Breaking 'walls' in one's life. Miyako's contribution IS NOT METAL, it is a slow Blues interlude made possible (thematically) by Miho's words, Asami's vocal expression & Midori's solo breaking the wall, but none of that is worthy of mention? No! Just Miyako, Miyako, Miyako!?!? Kryst! Ignoring the fellow MUSIC COMPOSER in the song, ignoring the lyricist who makes it a "song" with her music & lyrics... why can't you 'get' what I'm writing about? LOVEBITES is primarily an ensemble, NOT "The Miyako Band".
@@dregeye You obviously have an issue with Miyako. He mentioned her SPECIFICALLY because of the way her name was pronounced. That is all. He then added an accurate description. Of Miyako, who was the subject of the comment…….deal with it.
@@alekhidell "Why exaggerate in ways which diminishes acknowledgment of the other's contributions?" Still can't answer that, eh? I specifically CREDIT Miyako accurately. You are being dishonest by still avoiding acknowledging Miho's contribution of majority of the music to "Break The Wall" AND ALL the lyrics, by asserting what I wrote is because I "have an issue with Miyako". Miyako has never written a "song", as her only lyric contribution is to a song Mao 'composed' music for. That is simply a true statement. Stick with your Miyako-worship. I do have my own 'favored' member. I do not exaggerate her contributions. I have no "issue" with Miyako. You didn't READ what I wrote. "I LOVE Miyako's contributions." ... and ... "I'm tired of reading all about Miyako, Miyako, Miyako and the others being ignored." I guess I could have named-names and said, I have issue with Wolf-Pack members like Alek, maybe Chad sometimes, and others, WHEN they go on and on about ONE band-member & ignore the others. You ignored ALL my "crediting" of the other members ONLY to inaccurately attempt to transfer my frustration with 'fans' like YOU to "an issue with Miyako" which is a complete MISREPRESENTATION of what I have written. I challenge you or anyone else to find anywhere in the thousands of LOVEBITES comments I have made, even one where I diminish Miyako's contributions. I will support and credit each member appropriately. On your 'song counting' theme, you ignored the credits for "EPs" LOVEBITES EP: music - Miho 2; Haruna 1; Miyako 1. lyrics - Miho 2; Asami 2. Battle Against Damnation: music - Miho 1; Mao 1; Miyako 3. lyrics - Miho 2; Asami 2. Golden Destination: music - Miho 2; Mao 3; Miyako 1. lyrics - Miho 2; Asami 2. Glory, Glory to the World: music - Mao 2; Miyako 2; Asami 2; Midori 1. lyrics - Asami 5. Nameless Warrior: music - Asami, Midori, Miyako, Haruna & Mao lyrics - Asami song contributions, by the numbers (music & lyrics counted as separate contributions): Miyako - 8 Other band members - 33 (ever hear 'there are 3 kinds of lies: lies, damn lies & statistics' ?) This part was your idea... ----- But I realize that you are not interested in MY point... (accurately crediting all band members for their contributions) I now understand that you will insist on inaccurately elevating one member above the others, regardless of LOVEBITES being an "ensemble" and all members are EQUALLY responsible for what we hear and see in every LOVEBITES performance. I will respectfully avoid any interaction with you in future since it is a waste of time and detracts from the overall LOVEBITES positive experience for others, possibly. Enjoy your LOVEBITES experience, brought to you by Miho, Haruna, Midori, Miyako & Asami (listed in order of their joining of this wonderful ensemble.)
Those who offer to react to other songs LOVEBITES in vain place their hopes on this pair of reactors. They are not interested in LOVEBITES music. This pair of reactors (nothing personal) believes "that they know everything, have heard everything in their lives, nothing will surprise them anymore". Relationship to LOVEBITES: "Come on, try to impress us. Entertain us. And we will talk at this time. We are professionals, we can communicate with each other at the same time while listening to a new song. After all, we have headphones". - "What are they playing there? Ha ha ha ... well, this is Slayer. Ha ha ha ... so this is Metallica...Ha ha ha , and this in general ...." Etc. And in order not to alienate LOVEBITES fans, so that they like and subscribe to the channel, you need to sweeten the pill: "LOVEBITES are good musicians, but...." *** The song "Set the World on Fire" on this channel gained 11,000 views in 7 days. The reaction to ONE song LOVEBITES in 7 days has many times more views than all other reactions to other bands combined during the entire existence of the channel !!!! I think that the same will happen with other Japanese bands whose fans will offer listen to their favorite bands.
I'm leaving this reaction at 7:03 because I have hard similar stuff from other reactors as your prefatory statements. Just simply give your fair reviews without justifying your criticism, just give fair review like David Heretic does. I sometimes don't agree with him but I respect his opinion because he gives criticism without justification, he gives "his opinion" with his good background of music. You said you have good experiences as a musician, so just give fair review. That is enough and people here will understand that. Just make it sure it is merely "your opinion", not like a word of god.
Yes, dude talks smack. I'd love to hear his tunes and see if he's more than just talk. Lesson #1, don't trash talk any musicians. It's so easy to analyze music. You can spot a lot borrowing. Even Def Leppard coping a Police tune. They did a great job though. Ritchie was perhaps the first Rocker to play the Dorian mode. Everyone from Rhodes, Brian May, Lukather, Vai, Madian, and nearly every Rocker who plays with the accent in heavy began plàying it after "In Rock" and "Machine Head."
Here's a change of pace Miyako starts the song with a Piano solo of Chopin (His revolutionary Etude) Asami wrote the lyrics inspired by Chopin's Revolutionary etude (The failed revolution of Poland against their government with help from Russia. The CC works so you can follow the lyrics. Swan Song with Chopin Intro th-cam.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/w-d-xo.html
I am 58 amd my brother is 10 years older than me. My brother was a guitarist my sister played piano and I played bass and guitar. But I still get excited when I hear good music. That said everybody has their own tastes.
Asami favourite band - Halestorm and her dreams come true to performing with them at Download Festival 2019... LOVEBITES got their name by one of the Halestorm song - Love Bite ( So Do I ) and had cover this song... before that the band name was Power Slave... Miyako fav band is Metallica... Midori fav band is Angra... Haruna fav band is Helloween.. and they had cover one of Helloween song - Eagle Fly Free... And... Miho fav band is Iron Maiden... One more song that they had cover is Painkiller - Judas Priest... They won Best New Band by Golden Gods Award in 2018... Performing at Wacken Open Air - 2018.. Download Festival - both UK & Spain.. UK tour with Dragonforce... Had a gig around UK.. France and Germany... Opening band for Arch Enemy concert in China... Their top concert series in Japan :- Battle In The East - 2018... Daughter Of The Dawn - 2019... Five Of A Kind - 2020... Awakening : Awake Again From Abbyss - Live from studio ( live streaming ) - 2020... Ride For Vengeance - 2021... Nameless Warrior is the last song they record with Miho ( bass ) after Miho ( founder & leader ) decided to left the band.. there is no issue with other members.. it's personal matter that only Miho and LOVEBITES know.. Now... they been bz to select the new bassist after the audition date is close... Our Alpha will be back soon.. We - Wolfpack brothers and sisters around the world are waiting...
Dude, you are so freaking wrong about where it all started, you need to go back even further with bands like Montrose, UFO, Judas Priest, Frank Marino, Pat Travers, Robin Trower, April Wine, and Triumph to fully understand where the bands you so love got their shit from including Eddie Van Halen, they all borrowed riffs from one man, the Greman master Michael Schenker, and the British master Ritchie Blackmoore, and the Irish blues-rock master Gary Moore. Those three guitarists are the ones who started it all, when these ladies began to study the masters of yesteryear guess who they got influenced by and they have said it in their interviews. I am so sick of idiots who say this sounds like slayer, guess what before slayer there was Metallica and Megadeth, this is a Metallica vibe, not slayer. No it is not a pentagram of slayer, look at it correctly. Slayer uses their upside down for evil and Lovebites uses their right side up for themselves, just like the Star of David all against the norms of evil metal they are creating a more pure white metal the complete opposite, it is why they call themselves "The Lonewolf of metal" hence the name wolfpack logo
Right on though We all need to go back even further than THAT. You know it goes back forever-I guess Im older-I saw CreamClapton-Hendrix-Zeppelin/Page-Beck, Santana-Iggy and Stooges as WELL as Blackmore /Deep Purple and Moore {sorry-they didn't start "it" either} and everyone else during that period -all of them on numerous occasions--they all learned their stuff from someone b4 THEM. I just like that despite that I know from my self absorbed lofty perch of having been to Woodstock and spent half of my early20's life at the Fillmore East who "really" started "it" that I still get excited listening to Love Bites. Everyone has an opinion-I rarely give mine-but felt it necessary after listening to the reaction by that guy. Thanks for your comment.
Miyako cites British guitarist Gary Moore as the inspiration for her solo in Break the Wall. That's why she is using her Les Paul. Fans generally consider that Lovebites' live performances are superior to their studio recordings..Other bands to check out are Nemophile, Bridear, FateGear,, Mary's B;ood, Aldious, Unlucky Morpheus, Wagakki Band, Maximum the Hormone, Serenity in Murder, Asterism, Doll$Boxx, Gacharic Spin, Hanabiem Trident for starters.
Well,it's funny that you added def leppard's song love bites in this video..that the first time i discovered this band..that time i was searching on youtube def leppard mv love bites because i wanted to see the video..but suddenly band called lovebites appeared as the result..i was curious at that time,so clicked one of their videos shadowmaker and played it...in a second it blew me away..wow i loved it instantly..and i listen to them everyday ever since ..lovebites forever..🐺🤘🔥..
My top fav LB track right here. You really liked MIYAKO "The Golden Touch". Check out HOLY WAR for a closer look at MIDORI "The Crazy Shredder" next. Left-hand finger procession in her solo following MIYAKO is mind boggling. Enjoy: th-cam.com/video/bgAxpEpEcno/w-d-xo.html 🤘🐺🤘
@@ooobydoob3786 HE CALLED MYAKO'S SOLO GARBAGE AND THEN BLAMED THE WHOLE BAND FOR IT. HE KEPT HARPING ON MIHO WHEN WE KNOW SHE WAS DEVASTATED BY HER FATHER'S DEATH. HE SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE EPILEPTIC FIT GUITAR. MYAKO COMPOSED BREAKING THROUGH A WALL AS VERY DYNAMIC. THIS GUY IS AN ANTI RACIST PRETENDING TO BE COOL. HE KEPT SAYING LOVEBITES MUSIC WAS AN SOUNDING EXACTLY LIKE OTHER MUSIC HE HAD HEARD. HE CAME VERY VERY CLOSE TO ACCUSING THEM OF PLAGERISM. THIS IS NOT WOLFPACK; THIS IS RACIST DRIVEL.
I enjoyed your reaction to this song. You should do A Frozen Serenade next. The live version has amazing special visuals that they added so make sure you do the live and not the studio.
Now that was a great reaction. I love the bit where you’re waxing lyrical about Skolnick solos while the rest of us all knew what was coming. Dimebag is one of Miyako’s guitar heroes and she has a copy of his signature guitar. I’m talking out of my comfort zone here because I only know these names because of interviews and other fans. My guitar hero is Ritchie Blackmore, another guitarist she grew up listening to (her mom was into Rainbow and Purple) and there is an awesome TH-cam video of her at NAMM (I think) playing Parisienne Walkways such that her other big influence, Gary Moore, would be proud. I doubt there’s a sub genre of metal that Lovebites haven’t emulated in the 50 released tracks to date.
Great reaction ?😊 Is he implying that LOVEBITES stole everything from his favorite bands.... I don't consider myself a LOVEBITES fan, I just respect this band. But you, fans of LOVEBITES - SHAME!!!!!!
@@GrayFox14 if you listen carefully he says “influences” several times. Both of them, like a lot of reactors, will draw comparison with Slayer and Metallica when they hear “Break the Wall”. Lovebites often consciously set out to write a track with one of their influences in mind, which is the case for Miho I believe with this one. Cut him some slack. I criticised his first reaction, not because of what he said and did but how he said and did it, which gave me, the viewer, the impression that he wasn’t really paying attention to the band. But this whole reaction has made amends, and I think was intended to make amends. Unlike some reactors, one in particular, he hasn’t dug his heels in and given us all the middle finger.
@@GrayFox14 WHEN SO CALLED FANS ACT LIKE WHORES THEN LOVEBITES WILL DRAW MORE AND MORE AHOLE REACTORS. I AM ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED AT HOW MANY SO-CALLED WOLFPACK ACT LIKE WHORES. ALL THESE TUFF SOUNDING NAMES AND TUFF PICTURES, BUT THEY ARE A BUNCH OF POOFTERS.
Hell yeah! Your channel so react anyway you want...it's all good! Just glad you're reacting to them, so much more to go. Many ppl think this is similar to Testament's 'over the wall' song. That would be Miyako, dark-haired lead. i saw The Awakening / Hammer of Wrath and Winds of Transylvania requested, I would add M.D.O. live and Thunder Vengeance live also, both bangers. Thunder Vengeance is the opener to their 2020 show, absolute banger! Keep in mind, they also do lots of power metal so you should check it out. Some ridiculous solo-ing, not new, but ridiculous. MDO live th-cam.com/video/RzyIFE-eRH8/w-d-xo.html old Metallica vibes Thunder Vengeance live th-cam.com/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/w-d-xo.html 1st 15secs absolutely face-melting and that's how you open a show! Signs of Deliverance live th-cam.com/video/o6oVfCzruHQ/w-d-xo.html throwing this one in for good measure, when the lights go red...when was the last time you saw that? 🙂
I didn't consider Over the Wall but that's a pretty fair comparison. I heard Metallica cadences with Slayer drums and rythyms. All are exceptional musicians so these girls have great influences. They have a bright future ahead.
@@truebrodown Also heavily influenced by Maiden so you may not like all of their stuff. But they do some songs that show they are talented AF. They don't just do thrash, power, progressive and metal ballads to! Not all of it will be your cup of tea which is perfectly fine. Wait till you see Miyako on the piano, a F virtuoso...once in a lifetime talent imho. Much more to explore if you're up to it!
@@maxmaidiac2237 Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I have no problem with ppl not liking Lovebites, just don't say they're not talented. Fair enough?
SO glad you were excited and that you were aware that everything they did was stolen from everyone else. Ive seen everything -too. I saw Hendrix-Zeppelin-Who and everyone else back then numerous times all of whom learned from someone b4 them. Every guitarist was great then and got a riff from someone else-when I listen o great music as this was I spend little time looking down my nose pontificating about where that riff REALLY came from back un the day when "music was music".
I keep adding new ones. Right now I'm carefully watching Hagane - Super Villain caught my attention, they are definitely going in the right direction. Same with Trident, and Spoopy. And Nemophila is just Blossoming (see what I did there?😃) before out eyes.
This is just Lovebites. They just kill it...me an old metalhead growing up with your fav bands myself, I am freaking out how talented these women are🤘🏽
Great reaction. M&M is one of the best guitarduos I know about. Always bringing what the song needs... Their guitar harmonies are first class! ...also... your daughter got the most amazing eyes. Really cute!
Came back again to this great reaction. Miyako is amazing, prodigy level on guitar and piano. Love her sound. Lovebites is simply better than everyone else. They can take 6 different influences from different sub genres, distill, blend, and age it perfectly into one freaking song. None of the past greats could do that. And they are all elite level musicians. I grew up with the love for the same bands you did (I'm 62) and seen them all in concert. I may have heard it all before, but never collectively from one band who does it to perfection.
Just a small note, but if you want to insert a music clip from a "Love Bites" song to introduce Lovebites segments, you would be better off using Halestorm's "Love Bites (So Do I)," as that is the song they are actually name after. The Def Leppard and Judas Priest songs of the same name are just coincidental. The Halestorm song relates directly to them.
I was one of those who criticized you. Now seeing this I understand you and I ask you to accept my apologies. When I'm wrong I admit it. Your reaction was very good this time. And although the previous one was not good to my liking, perhaps I should not have been so "unfriendly". But everything you said now was very correct. I know when someone knows about metal because I too have been listening to things like Metallica, Pantera, Testament, Slayer, Stratovaruis, Meshuggah, Angra, Rhapsody, Dream Theater, Symphony X, Sepultura and a long etcetera, for more than 30 years. So I agree one hundred percent with all the comments you made regarding the song.
It's all good. It's fascinating to see young Japanese girls playing 80s thrash. Gives me hope for the future. In the states, kids are turning metal into a mixture of boy band and Djent music. It's become discouraging. They use drum machines and electronic auto tuning.
@@truebrodown I would not worry about that guys statement I didn’t think you where referring to Midori’s solo (blonde guitarist) but a male guitarist (I forgot the name you mentioned lol) but I’m sure you weren’t referring to her in general am I right?
@@Mrlovebitten I'd have to rewatch it but if I recall I compared it to Kerry King from Slayer. I hate his solos. But, I love his rythyms and I'm a huge Slayer fan. So I don't have to like every second of every song to love the music. Pantera is my favorite band ever and The Great Southern Trendkill disappointed me. So, can't win them all!
oh boy....these are gonna be good. some bands you will love and some will be "wtf was that". but it's a new take on our 80s music played almost solely by japanese women and I love it! looking forward to your upcoming reactions.
Next song pls check out [the awakening+the hammer of wrath] this one has a incredible solos by Midori and Miyako. And i would recommend for you guys a band called Dir En Grey from japan too. The lead vocal for this band is one of the best alive nowaday. If interested try [karasu eng sub live hd] this band is most experimental🤘🏻
Speaking of Eddie Van Halen Lovebites studio version of their song Winds of Transylvania would be a great choice for a studio song. They do some phenomenal guitar squeals in it.
5minutes of pure guitar chaos! Like they were shot out of a cannon. Do the live version or the VLADLOVE anime version; Lovebites was asked to the opening for an anime show, VLADLOVE (vampire). 🙂
@@morganolsson1993 Possibly but I don't think so. Midori's solo in BtW is chaotic but in WoT it is a little more structured and the squeals were reminiscent of Eddie Van Halen's Eruption which was someone he mentioned.
@@ChadTheDragonLord he says there are no new sound to make, but heck if I ever heard anything like Winds of T! Totally insane. What bands are copied here??
you should react to the japanese instrumental band Asterism and their song Dawn and the video to play is the first one i believe that shows up on youtube it is amazing the girl is 16 yrs old in the video and people say she is one of the best guitarist in the world at that age please let me know what you think
@@truebrodown nice the video i was talking about was taken from a fan at a performance and he was in the front row and everytime she did one of her awesome solos he zoomed in to her fingers it was amazing
If you're to react to other bands, try Nemophila for the next one. "Dissension" can be your first song from them to react to, and IMO still their heaviest one. Thanks for this reaction!! Starting to like your style 😁
I always found it amusing how Hanneman and King took pains in the song credits to identify who played which solo, considering how bad they were. When she appeared on Rock Fujiyama, Miyako to Marty Friedman that her number one guitar influence was Dimebag and that’s why she plays the Dean. th-cam.com/video/PjJioJ0C-U4/w-d-xo.html (English subtitles) For something from Japan that is *really different*, try sokoninaru - Lament moment (2020) - th-cam.com/video/42_iKLtRNGE/w-d-xo.html - kyokugen ha sestina (2020) - th-cam.com/video/UjY9n5JdETo/w-d-xo.html - Tenohira De Odoru (2018) - th-cam.com/video/n7MyoBki9wk/w-d-xo.html - brilliant city (2021) - th-cam.com/video/Ch3OWNEdkbE/w-d-xo.html 八十八ヶ所巡礼 (88 Pilgrimages) - 仏滅トリシュナー (Buddha Destruction Trishner) - th-cam.com/video/c7apuNjIRe0/w-d-xo.html - 攻撃的国民的音楽 (Offensive National Music) (2014) - th-cam.com/video/D90AOhojK3M/w-d-xo.html Don’t sleep too long on BAND-MAID; these ladies have revitalized hard rock in ways I’m sure you will appreciate. Start with the pre-pandemic concert footage of Domination to get a feel of the band dynamic. Then watch the Manners & Black Hole two-fer from live stream to see how far their song writing has progressed with their most recent album.
Bands like Band-Maid, Lovebites and Nemophila base their sound on classic styles of rock and metal. If you want to hear something more original try Sokoninaru. Wagakki Band is another band that probably sounds like nothing you've heard before with their mix of traditional Japanese music and rock.
Michael Schenker has been a Dean player for a very long time now. I think Set the World on Fire is more Testament than others. Miyako's solo is more Gary Moore than Skolnick.
Nice reaction. One thing I will say though is, like so many people do, they want to compare to other bands. In some cases I feel a band may be more directly pulling from another band, but I do not feel that way about Lovebites. You said the key word - influenced. I am not the type of person who will say this sounds like this and that sounds like that. Lovebites has thrown into a metal pot so many different metal variants and makes it their own unique genre. This is my second favorite Lovebites song (live is better than studio in this case), and my favorite song(s) is The Awakening/The Hammer of Wrath from this same concert, Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020. Lovebites is my favorite band. I am 62 and have been listening to metal since 1971 (Zeppelin). I love thrash, power, and speed metal the most, but like all genres of metal. I was in my 20's when Metallica, Exodus, and others came along, Exodus being my favorite thrash band. These ladies wear their influences on their sleeves and make no bones about it.
I will be 62 this December and I started with Grand Funk, Deep Purple and Zeppelin. For the last 40 years I have been a huge Iron Maiden fan along with Megadeth, Motorhead, and others. It was nice reading your calm, intelligent and accurate comment about his reaction to Lovebites. I read too many silly temper tantrum comments before I got to yours.
@@danw6048 "....read too many silly temper tantrum comments ?" This suggests that MANY people believe that this reactor showed disrespect and arrogance! This is your temper tantrum. 😄It is unpleasant for you to read that you are licking a reactor who expressed disrespect for LOVEBITES, especially in the first reaction.
Love Polyphia, I hear you. But honestly, if you play Lovebites back to back with Iron Maiden or Helloween, Lovebites are cleaner, faster, heavier and most important, their songwriting is much more mature. And to their credit, they always give kudos to those predecessor bands, but they have surpassed the masters.
JESUS CHRIST, I SEE SO SO MANY SO-CALLED WOLFPACK KISSING THE A$$ OF A LOVEBITES ABUSER THAT I AM BEGINNING TO THINK ONLY SHEEPLE LIKE LOVEBITES. I CAN SEE YOUR DEFINATE HINTS TO THE JERK REACTOR AND KNOW THAT HE DARE NOT DEBATE YOU. MOST OF THE SO CALLED JMETAL FANS ARE JUST PURELY SPINELESS POSERS. TIME AFTER TIME I SEE A SADISTIC REACTORS CROSS THE LINE INTO ANTI JAPANESE RACISM.I CHECK AND THEY ARE HUNKY DORRY WITH ALL EURO FEMALE ROCK/METAL. WTF? WTF, ARE AMERICANS STUPID OR SPINELESS OR BOTH? THE DUDE IS STARTING TO BEHAVE BETTER BUT I THINK IT IS MOSTLY BECAUSE HIS VIEWS JUMPED WAY WAY UP WITH LOVEBITES.
Who the hell people here saying we need reactor to blown away? I wanna see it! Sorry, but as a Wolfpack, we're not doing that.. And I'm sorry if you met people like that.. But I beg you, don't blame the band for having some fans like that.. Also as a Wolfpack, my mission is to share Lovebites music to more people around the world as much as possible.. So don't worry about the reaction, guys.. As long as you guys enjoy the music, it's enough.. No need to talk about skill or talent, because Lovebites is the Masterpiece itself.. Thank you for sharing.. Hope you guys have a great day!
I enjoyed your reaction to this great song by Lovebites. I am sorry that you have been attacked by some Lovebites fans. It seems like every community, even a fan community like the Wolfpack, will have a few lunatics and drunks. I am sure other commenters have told you that this song was cowritten by Miho, the unfortunately ex- bassist, and Miyako, the guitarist on stage left. Miyako also did the arrangement of the song. Miyako has been the primary songwriter of the band, having written almost half their catalog. One of Miyako's several influences is the great Ritchie Blackmore, and like Blackmore, she has a big background in classical music. In fact she could have a career as a classical pianist and has expressed the thought of releasing a classical album. The DNA of the band, however, comes from Miho. Miho's biggest influence is Steve Harris and it definitely shows in her playing. I haven't figured out the reason she left the band but it doesn't seem like it was internal band friction. She was the truest metalhead of the band and will be missed. Since your first Lovebites reaction was to a Miyako song and this one was a Miho and Miyako cowritten song, I suggest your next song be one written by Miho. It is called Thunder Vengeance and Miho wrote it after watching Slayer live in concert at a festival. The video will also show you how Lovebites starts a concert. Thunder Vengeance - th-cam.com/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/w-d-xo.html
I can’t answer your commentary to my "SHAME THE FANS ....." My answer there for some reason does not let YT pass. Therefore, I will try to answer here: Baseless temper tantrum happens in women. When they are offended and cannot control their feelings. I'm a man, I'm not offended, I draw conclusions. I am calm as a boa constrictor. My opinion is based on what I saw and heard after watching 1 and 2 reactions to LOVEBITES. If you think that True Brodown is right and showed respect to your favorite band, you can like and subscribe to the channel True Broaddown. And continue to admire him.
"..even in a fan community like Wolfpack, there will be a few crazy and drunk people." Your desire to insult those who criticize True Brodown and please him is laughable. Bravo! As I understand it, having written about drunkards and crazy people, you included me in the list of "crazy and drunkards". I bring to your attention that I have been doing sports all my life, I don’t smoke, I don’t drink alcohol and other filth. My brain is in order too. * I consider those who praise reactors who show disrespect for their "favorite band" to be sycophants
@@GrayFox14 So you are sexist also. Temper tantrums happen in both men and women. It has nothing to do with a person's sex, only a person's maturity. Maturity has nothing to do with age. I have seen plenty of adults throw temper tantrums. I hope someday that your maturity matches your ego. Strive to develop the class and grace of the band that you claim to admire so much.
@@GrayFox14 Not sure if your brain is in order but you a very entertaining. By the way, calling me a sycophant was also giving this reactor a huge complement, but I doubt you understand that.
@@danw6048 Sexist? Funny.😄 Do you even understand what you wrote? I have several female friends. Unlike many men, I can sincerely be friends with women. And not just to have sex. A man DOES NOT have tantrums if he is a MAN. Women have tantrums. And they are connected with the structure of the female endocrine (hormons) and nervous systems. This is short. It's a shame for a lawyer of your age and life experience not to know this. Although ..... everyone judges for himself. You are a male lawyer who can get tantrums ?! How hard it is for you to live ....... I sincerely empathize with you🌹🥀🌷🌺 *Advice : start doing Qigong, Yoga, Tai Chi Quan.
There isn't a single metal band after 1990 that hasn't been influenced by the big ones . And in the future new bands will be influenced by Lovebites and other new big ones. The great thing about Lovebites is that they aren't about to go to a nursing home.
My favorite band ever. The talent on stage is unbelievable. They even dislodged Nightwish (who I still love). They do sometimes sound like this band or that, but always, they have their spin on it, their technical additions, and some modern flair. Or they'l just go off and you get something like Frozen Serenade or Edge of the World. Amazing. I have to see them live.
The guitarist using the dean guitars is Miyako she started as a classical pianist first and learned guitar much later guitarist second As for dean there were many plyers before Dime on the Dean's endoresed artist list but Dime was A pointy guitarist era. Dean made instruments used by bands such as Heart, Kansas, the Cars, Molly Hatchet, Triumph and ZZ Top. I have a gibson flying vee and the first player I saw using one was a blues player Albert King, and the next was Michael Shanker Both were before Randy Roads. The Explorer for me was Mathias Jabbs from the Scorpions. Which pre-dates Hetfield.
second attempt to lower them down to simple plagiarists. since you are a musician since 30 years (btw never heard of you) and know every note, harmony and chord, which has been ever played: maybe it´s time for a new hobby for you.
Have you ever heard the expression "get off your high horse"? If not, you better look it up because you are getting a nose bleed up there. While you are at it, pull that stick out too.
You're right , CoffeineNightOwl ! Pay no attention to DanW60 and people like him. They belong to the class of reptiles, they have "a very flexible spine". I think you understand what I mean ......😉 DanW60 is rude to everyone who dares to criticize this reactor. He calls them drunkards, crazy people, sexists. If you answer him harshly, DanW60 an a temper tantrum and he runs away .
Oh I hope no one gave you shit in the TH-cam comments, it sometimes can get pretty wild. I didn't see anything wrong with the former video. And yeah recently Miyako (the girl with the Dean) gave an interview to Marty Friedman that now is in a show in Japan about rock and she mentioned that Dimeback was one of her top5 guitar players, so yeah, that's it. Let's see this new video. I hope you check more songs from them, they are doing very interesting stuff. Oh, if you want to listen something from studio, you might want to check *Mastermind 01,* one of their hidden gems because it has never been played in any DVD. On the japanese metal girls scene the big four acts right now are probably Lovebites, Band Maid, Nemophila and of course Babymetal, but it goes a lot deeper. Lovebites as you know, very inspired by the classics, the big ones. Nemophila more leaning on rock and metal from the 90s, with strong rebel attitude. I recommend RAITEI or Dissension from them. Band Maid is very inspired in japanese rock. And Babymetal you never know what to expect, though it seems you know them already. And man I feel this last comment, I think I've barely found anything that made me interested this last 20 years. Until I found this new japanese scene a couple of years ago.
very good reaction, LOVEBITES is the best metal band today. this is Thrash Metal, they have a lot to react to these queens of metal...🤘🤘🤘🤘greetings from Argentina.
Since you keep referring to the band Slayer I thought I would check them out since I never listened to them before. I didn't think much about the band. For short hair/ bald guys head banging looked funny to me and didn't care much for their playing style I am offended you compare Lovebites to them.
You've never heard Slayer before? That's crazy. They are the forefathers of metal. The song I refer to is Raining Blood. The picking patterns of Lovebites in this song follow that blueprint. A very difficult blueprint to play. I was never a huge Slayer fan growing up but once I started playing guitar my respect grew. Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman were right handed machines. Blistering speed that influenced generations of metal. Their drummer Dave Lombardo is credited with creating metal drumming today. I guarantee you Lovebites are very familiar with Slayer. Them along with Exodus, Metallica and Anthrax created Thrash metal. Something Lovebites plays a lot.
Also, since you asked, when you do get around to reacting to Nemophila, it is pronounced "neh-mo-fee-la." There is no "i" at the end. Google will tell you it is pronounced "neh-MOFF-il-la," which is how the flower they are named for is pronounced, but they pronounce it "neh-mo-fee-la," as in Japanese, most syllables end with a vowel sound, making it awkward for them to pronounce most syllables that end with consonant sounds. With Nemophila, you will find a more modern metalcore type sound, as opposed to the 80s-inspired retro sound of Lovebites. At least with their original material. However, they have several covers on the TH-cam page that are covers of classic 80s and 90s bands, including Iron Maiden, Helloween, Metallica, AC/DC, Kiss, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Skid Row, Journey, Nickelback, and even Pink, as well as some covers of their Japanese cohorts X-Japan, Maximum the Hormone, Babymetal, and a few others.
@@GrayFox14 The number of originals is growing, though. They have a full album of originals out, plus two new releases from their forthcoming second album. So right now, there are thirteen original songs available (though not all of them have videos).
@@guitarzen5999 Their producer Kensuke Akiyama collaborates with Saki for the songwriting on about half the songs, and has some input on the others. Saki, Mayu, and Haraguchi-san all also have solo songwriting credits, but Saki is the main composer overall. Mayu also writes most of the lyrics, except for Hypnosis, for which Hazuki wrote the lyrics. All members also contribute to the composition of their individual instruments. So Nemophila originals are Nemophila originals, although there is some collaboration with outside sources (much like Lovebites collaborates with Mao and Nana Hatori).
Like your observations. Subbing. Check out The Warning. Rock/Metal. 3 sisters from Mexico who can sound like 6. Fairly deep songwriting. Currently touring and dropping videos of it.
Good reaction and explanations. I’ll have to defer to your knowledge of the 80s metal bands because I grew up with Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Jethro Tull, Jefferson Airplane, Deep Purple, and Blue Oyster Cult, just to name a few heavy from the mid 60s to the mid 70s. By the time Iron Maiden, Metallica, Kiss, Megadeth, and Slayer came along, they had no luster for me I saw them as mere ho-hum imitation wannabes. It wasn’t until Lovebites came along that my interest in heavy and speed metal was reignited. These ladies have captured the original spirit of the original heavy masters and have surpassed the imitators. But if you wanna compare notes sometime, I can talk Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, Jimi Hendrix, and Jimmy Page all day long. It’s great to be from different musical generations because I can still learn thing from you young guns too.
@@maxmaidiac2237 I don’t think that is his intent. But his opinion is based on his prior experiences and it may sound to some like he’s accusing, but even his bands from his era “borrowed” musical phrases from the previous bands of my era. In my opinion, Lovebites have captured the spirit of music from the past and added their own style and repackaged it in a way that honors all musicians without being a cover band. Lovebites are a great band and a great phenomenon.
OMG you just gave me a flashback moment. I was a huge fan and saw BOC 5 times 'back in the day' ... 🎶Oh, no, they say he's got to Go...🎶 Great list from the early days. IMHO King Crimson and Pink Floyd invented Prog, and with Burn, Deep Purple singlehandedly invented Heavy Metal in 1974. I too was pretty much turned off by the 'Metal' scene for 30 years or so and I am STOKED to find that actual Heavy Metal is Alive and Well . . . in Japan.
I get it now, give this duo something new something that could break the wall, if you still wanted to walk the Lovebites road, a different feel, how about Under the Red Sky Onmyo-za (陰陽座) - 組曲「九尾」～照魔鏡 (japanese prog) Lisa X band -Looking up to you (modern) Ningen Isu -Namahage (doomish) Wagakki Band -homura +akatsuki no ito (folk/modern)
slayer, then metallica. just say old school thrash. and your way off from creeping death bro. they have old school metal influence. but they are original. that is not a kerry king solo bro. lmafao
I think your comments in the first reaction were fair. Some fans can get a bit overexcited, so don't take it too much to heart. I personally really enjoy Midori's solo here, but it is certainly one of her more chaotic ones and I can see why people wouldn't like that. She has plenty of other awesome solos though, so keep digging into their discography. And I agree that Polyphia are pretty mindblowing.
Midori's solo is a musical expression of Breaking The Wall, followed by stepping forward to revel in her success... chaotic? Breaking a wall with music could not be more accurately written & performed, music and physical expressions, imo. One of Midori's greatest guitar solo achievements, defined in two parts, then transitions the entire mood of the song with her slow arpeggiated chords, joined by Miho's bass, from most intense to the most serene portion of any LOVEBITES song, for Miyako to offer her soulful expressions.
@@dregeye Dont get me wrong, I really like her solo as I've said. Maybe "chaotic" wasn't the best term. Is "frantic" better? It's not as melodic as some of their other solos. That's probably what I meant to say. Sorry, if my comment wasn't entirely clear.
@@cepho8349 Well, breaking a wall can sound chaotic. My point is to bring attention to Midori presenting a musical expression of what the song is about. Can't have a solo like Miyako's to express breaking a wall, eh? I'm just kinda sensitive to pretty much anything 'dismissive' of any member's 'works'. Miyako does not seem to be the 'target' of such, ever... Which is fine, except when the others' works are not recognized, and in this case, not 'properly understood', (always 'in my opinion' of course). I honestly think that Midori's solo in this song is a masterful accomplishment in composition & performance, and will likely continue to 'explain' that perspective. Thanks for your kind and understanding reply, however, this reactor's comments in his first LOVEBITES video were insulting to Wolf-Pack and disrespectful of LOVEBITES such that I completely disagree with your 'opening line' of agreement with THAT video/comments. I asked him some questions in response to his rude replies to my attempts to kindly explain some things and, in spite of his "come at me bro" thumbnail, he did not respond to any of my questions. I don't appreciate this guy's attitude, but maybe you & others can 'bring him around'. I didn't watch the first past his "low-cut top" comment, and will not be watching this one at all. There is no point with a person who announces "come at me bro" but does not respond when confronted. Also like to say that I appreciate your comments on LOVEBITES videos, (except that opening line &:-) and just wanted to point out that Midori's solo is showing us what the song is about! Breaking a Wall & reveling in the success! I consider her transition to slow arpeggiated serenity to be a part of her 'solo' too... A spectacular display of virtuosity, imo. How many techniques does she perfectly transition between to 'say' what she had to say to us? Amazing!
"....comments in the first reaction were fair ?" "...some fans can get a bit overexcited ? " In the first reaction disregard for LOVEBITES was shown. You are probably the fan who get a bit overexcited and licks😛 the person who snubbed LOVEBITES😂🤣
@@maxmaidiac2237 He didn't like Midori's solo. Not the whole band. That's a big difference. And that's fair. Not everyone has to like everything Lovebites have put out out. You have to accept that.
Lovebites is a group of talented ladies. Sure they studied metal from 80's & 90's. Composed and play their song to its finest and perfectly possible. True spirit of metal.. yeah!! Great reaction guys 👍👍👍🤘🤘🔥🔥
Well if you're doing a Japan metal week, I'd suggest checking out: Maximum the Hormone - Yoshu Fukushu Unlucky Morpheus - Cadaver/Revadac Crystal Lake - Aeon Crossfaith - Monolith Just for a bit more diversity in styles
@@Gsc-2112 It seems to me that LOVEBITES songs were influenced by the 80s, 90s, etc. In the 70s, hard rock still prevailed, if we are talking about heavy music (Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Rainbow, etc. ), heavy metal was just beginning to emerge. The same Judas Priest was still not as popular as they became in the 80s. In the late 70s, punk rock was generally at the top. But with the beginning of the 80s, a wave of heavy metal rose ("old school")
@@cepho8349 You're right. The keyboard solo in "Burden of Time" made me think of J.Lord and K.Hensley, whom I still love. Although Miyako's keyboards sound different. Since Miyako's mother was a fan of Deep Purple and R. Blackmore's Rainbow, Miyaka grew up with this music. I think that Miyako's composing talent is primarily the merit of her mother, who instilled in her daughter a good musical taste. All great bands and musicians have learned from the musical material that was created by previous generations. To become a good musician, you have to learn from someone. But this does not mean that LOVEBITES copy someone. It infuriates me when a person declares that LOVEBITES is copying someone. Either the person has not listened to this group enough or he is an idiot ! Years will pass and LOVEBITES will become classics. And beginner musicians will learn from their songs....
I also hear musicians and can hear their influences. EVH blatantly plays a boogie we've heard from other artists in the past. How many players did their own Hiway Star? Just taking the harmonic minor scale after Blackmore really intoduced it to Rockers. Chuck Berry shuffles, a gazillion. SRV gets heat for his Albert King licks. Randy Rhodes was influenced by Johnny Winter and Blackmore. Everyone borrowed from Roy Buchanan mi in the early 70's. We all learned and we're influenced by those that came before. Even Mozart and LvB. Beethoven's early pieces are heavily influenced by Mozart. Well known, the connection between Mozart to Mahler to Shostakovich ect. However, when I hear someone playing Richie's licks, l think it's a great complement. The gal who plays the Dean in lovebites claims she never really studied Ritchie. She was a concert pianist until she turned 18. However, her mom listened to to Purple and Rainbow day and night. She may not have coped his licks, but you can definitely hear his influence. Me, (GULP), I'm 100% original.
That was funny! Cool reaction! :) I think all Lovebites' songs are different and you have to listen to them all :) :) :) They are awesome. Try "Holy war" - I think this is the most popular video. Thank you for your reaction. I am waiting for the next Lovebites reaction. And of course you have to watch BAND-MAID - they are very talented musicians. You will be impressed. And there is another Japanese band called Wagakki Band. They are not heavy, but their music is really unique. They mix traditional Japanese instruments with modern metal instruments and this is amazingly beautiful.
Welcome in my Metal World. Great reaction video. I was born a metalhead. I am a proud member of the Wolfpack. I love all songs and covers of this so talented band from Japan. Bass player Miho (left the band on August 17, 2021) loves Slayer and Testament. Miyako (dark haired guitarist) loves Metallica. This song is one of the few songs that Miho and Miyako created together "musical jacket". And you can feel it from this song. Miyako's guitar solo is in honor of the famous giutarist, Gary Moore. This song is a true masterpiece. One of the best songs of this band. Nemophila is one of my the most favorite all-female metal band from Japan. And one of the best metal band in Japan. Absolutely different metal band than Lovebites. I highly recommend listening to a new song Adabana from the band Nemophila. Keep up the great work. Have a good day with my heartfelt greetings :-).
I believe it is the only song cowritten by Miho and Miyako, with Miyako doing the arrangement. Other than this song, Miyako has always written alone. The only band member that never works with Mao.
@@janhromas7276 The official credits for The Crusade, at least according to the Discogs database, is music by Miyako, lyrics by Miho and arrangement by Miyako and the band. Yes, Mao works with Asami, Midori and Miho in their songwriting but has never worked with Miyako.
@@danw6048 YES, that´s truth. Break The Wall and The Crusade are 2 songs by Miyako and Miho. The only songs these 2 amazing women have collaborated on. You can feel it most on Break The Wall :-).
I grew up with Hendrix-Clapton-Cream-Who-Zeppeliun been to Woodstock--they all had people who influenced them You saw them ALL -Ooh -Im sorry-I don't think you saw them! Those guys ALL talked about the people who influenced them. I used to be the elitist who needed to let everybody know-like you- how the groups after Cream-the Experience etc.-all of whom I saw NUMEROUS TIMES- and I made it a point to let EVERYBODY know it {as you do}and how EVERYTHING was stolen from the REAL musicians. This band IS different than the other metal bands back then-ALL OF WHOM IVE SEEN AS WELL. Lovebites are a lot different and a lot more interesting than all the rest of them and every musician is top notch which was not the case with ANY of those groups.What a useless worthless waste of time talking about how EVERY note came froim SOMEBODY ELSE. Every musician took riffs from someone b4 them.ESLE. OK-you made your point-you heard the real music-I am getting a kick out you guys. Give it a break-spend your time talking about aTHIS group-evetryone of YOUR guys stole their stuff from people b4 them..
Ok.. Bands: My J-rock ACES : BAND-MAID (Hard-Rock) LOVEBITES (Heavy Metal - Power, trash, heavy rock.. in a good classical 80's style - ) NEMOPHILA (any style in rock/heavy) ASTERISM (instrumental heavy metal trio. You say the name Eddie Van Halen.. i 'am waiting you meet 19 years old Hal-Ca. ) GACHARIC SPIN (fun rock ;) - heavy rock funk) others j-rock bands i like to this list: GALNERYUS (Neoclassical power metal) UNLUCKY MORPHEUS NINGEN ISU (Black Sabbath style, old rock/heavy metal from last 70's early 80's) HANABIE MARY's BLOOD (they are good) ALDIUS BRIDEAR BABYMETAL MAXIMUM the HORMONE ... and so many others
We are all fans of the bands you mentioned. Lovebite's fans are not new fans to rock and metal. We love these Japanese women like crazy because they play our 80's metal on an musical level that we don't have anymore with our youngsters here in Europe. I think it's no different with you guys in the States. In western countries, rap and hip hop has taken over the young listeners. Here in Germany, rock and metal is considered "pensioner music" by young people. From Lovebites, Band Maid, Nemophila and more, these Japanese women are the future of Rock N Roll. Not just in Japan, but worldwide. We need good young musicians, but young people learning to play instruments also need young role models. With only 60-80 year old role models (as good as they are), Rock 'n' Roll has been sidelined by the youth of the world. We hope you two will help with the great task of bringing rock music (or handmade music, including blues and jazz) back into the front row. Let's go to friends!
I'm not overly impressed with some of the music coming out of the states lately. I've started enjoying more Russian, Ukrainian and Australian metal bands of late. I can now add Japanese.
@@truebrodown Some Backgound: All female Heavy Metal bands have been a big 'thing' in Japan since the '80's. There has been an All Female Metal Festival every April in Tokyo since 1987.
I feel what you feel. Here in the US, rock and metal have been abandoned by record companies and entertainment channels since 2000. Rock radio stations are running playlist of songs published 30, 40 years ago. Young rock musicians need stages and rock music need young stars.
Bassist Miho wrote the foundation for “Break The Wall” while guitarist and keyboardist Miyako added color to the composition. Miyako wrote the solo in the middle with Gary Moore in mind.
Lyrics: Miho
Music: Miho and Miyako
Arrangement: Miyako/LoveBites
When you will mix Slayer, Iron, Judas, Helloween, Megadeth, Chopin, Rahmaninov, Dvorak etc you will have Lovebites the metal in version 5.0.
So true . . .
The Obliteration of the music industry has begun...LOVEBITES here to conquer all!
LOVEBITES - Break The Wall lyrics:
(DIE) No sign of my time
Cause I wish to live another life
(BY) Who will save my poor soul?
Crying alone in a dim hole
(MY) Can't believe it's real
Cause in the end, everything is gone
(SIDE) How should I live from now?
Find myself staring at the walls
Tonight, I'll break the wall
It's now or never
Now, I'm on my own
I've gotta get free
Bite, I'll break the chain
Run to my shelter
Make it out alive
I have to break through the wall
(DIE)
No sign of my crime
Got my scars during wartime
(BY)
Who's the one that did it
Deadly venom eating me inside
(MY)
Spent my life in vain
I can't forget everything I've done
(SIDE)
I swear to my hatred
Find myself staring at the walls
Tonight, I'll break the wall
It's now or never
Now, I'm on my own
I've gotta get free
Bite, I'll break the chain
Run to my shelter
Make it out alive
I have to break through the wall
(DIE)
No sign of my time
Cause I wish to live another life
(BY)
Who will save my poor soul?
Crying alone in a dim hole
(MY)
Can't believe it's real
Cause in the end, everything is gone
(SIDE)
How should I live from now?
Find myself staring at the walls
Tonight, I'll break the wall
It's now or never
Now, I'm on my own
I've gotta get free
Bite, I'll break the chain
Run to my shelter
Make it out alive
I have to break through the-
I have to break through the-
I have to break through the wall

Everyone in my small village from England knows who they are...can't stop raving on abt how amazing Lovebites are.
same thing here on my street, my neighbors hear lovebites everyday whether they like it or not 🤣🤣and some even like it 🐺🤘🐺🤘🐺
I hope there are more younger people in yr village becoming Lovebites fans
Mee-yah-koh is how you pronounce her name. She has been nicknamed The Golden Touch by the band members because she is musical savant. She composes the majority of their songs and she is also a master of the piano and keyboard.
Miyako? Near half of music. No lyrics except group-credit on "Holy War".
Why exaggerate in ways which diminishes acknowledgment of the other's contributions?
@@dregeye I suggest you take another look. She is responsible for the music (ie composition, as the man said) on 5 tracks on Awakening, 5 tracks on Immortality and 6 tracks on Pentagram. It’s a similar story with arrangement. She’s not a lyricist. Composition usually refers to the musical instruments. Writing usually means lyrics. The man said “composes”…..
@@alekhidell You are welcome to exaggerate in any way you choose.
Songs have lyrics. She does not write lyrics. There would be no "songs", only a collection of instrumentals if hearing Miyako's wonderful contributions.
What? You think Miyako doesn't get enough credit already?
Why distort listeners/reactors views by ignoring the OTHERS' contributions?
Why only mention one contributor, the music, and ignore who wrote the LYRICS that makes that music a "song"? Maybe you take another look at my QUESTION?
"Why exaggerate in ways which diminishes acknowledgment of the other's contributions?"
You did not answer that question, and since Miyako didn't write the lyrics to "Break The Wall", Chad's comment diminishes acknowledgement of Miho's contribution, which makes it a song, writing the music AND lyrics to the vocal portion while Miyako's contribution is the music she solos over, possibly the transition back to Miho's music that has the vocal, yet Miho got NO CREDIT from Chad.
THAT is diminishing acknowledgment of the others' contributions, no?
My INTENT is for each band member to be recognized for their contributions.
I LOVE Miyako's contributions. I LOVE the others' contributions.
I'm tired of reading all about Miyako, Miyako, Miyako and the others being ignored.
"Break The Wall" is a good example, considered one of LOVEBITES 'thrashiest' by many people's definition. A HEAVY song about Breaking 'walls' in one's life. Miyako's contribution IS NOT METAL, it is a slow Blues interlude made possible (thematically) by Miho's words, Asami's vocal expression & Midori's solo breaking the wall, but none of that is worthy of mention? No! Just Miyako, Miyako, Miyako!?!?
Kryst! Ignoring the fellow MUSIC COMPOSER in the song, ignoring the lyricist who makes it a "song" with her music & lyrics... why can't you 'get' what I'm writing about?
LOVEBITES is primarily an ensemble, NOT "The Miyako Band".
@@dregeye You obviously have an issue with Miyako. He mentioned her SPECIFICALLY because of the way her name was pronounced. That is all. He then added an accurate description. Of Miyako, who was the subject of the comment…….deal with it.
@@alekhidell "Why exaggerate in ways which diminishes acknowledgment of the other's contributions?"
Still can't answer that, eh? I specifically CREDIT Miyako accurately.
You are being dishonest by still avoiding acknowledging Miho's contribution of majority of the music to "Break The Wall" AND ALL the lyrics, by asserting what I wrote is because I "have an issue with Miyako".
Miyako has never written a "song", as her only lyric contribution is to a song Mao 'composed' music for. That is simply a true statement.
Stick with your Miyako-worship.
I do have my own 'favored' member.
I do not exaggerate her contributions.
I have no "issue" with Miyako. You didn't READ what I wrote.
"I LOVE Miyako's contributions." ... and ...
"I'm tired of reading all about Miyako, Miyako, Miyako and the others being ignored."
I guess I could have named-names and said, I have issue with Wolf-Pack members like Alek, maybe Chad sometimes, and others, WHEN they go on and on about ONE band-member & ignore the others.
You ignored ALL my "crediting" of the other members ONLY to inaccurately attempt to transfer my frustration with 'fans' like YOU to "an issue with Miyako" which is a complete MISREPRESENTATION of what I have written.
I challenge you or anyone else to find anywhere in the thousands of LOVEBITES comments I have made, even one where I diminish Miyako's contributions.
I will support and credit each member appropriately.
On your 'song counting' theme, you ignored the credits for "EPs"

This part was your idea...
-----
But I realize that you are not interested in MY point...
(accurately crediting all band members for their contributions)
I now understand that you will insist on inaccurately elevating one member above the others, regardless of LOVEBITES being an "ensemble" and all members are EQUALLY responsible for what we hear and see in every LOVEBITES performance.
I will respectfully avoid any interaction with you in future since it is a waste of time and detracts from the overall LOVEBITES positive experience for others, possibly.
Enjoy your LOVEBITES experience, brought to you by Miho, Haruna, Midori, Miyako & Asami (listed in order of their joining of this wonderful ensemble.)
Those who offer to react to other songs LOVEBITES in vain place their hopes on this pair of reactors. They are not interested in LOVEBITES music.
This pair of reactors (nothing personal) believes "that they know everything, have heard everything in their lives, nothing will surprise them anymore". Relationship to LOVEBITES: "Come on, try to impress us. Entertain us. And we will talk at this time. We are professionals, we can communicate with each other at the same time while listening to a new song. After all, we have headphones".
- "What are they playing there? Ha ha ha ... well, this is Slayer. Ha ha ha ... so this is Metallica...Ha ha ha , and this in general ...." Etc.
And in order not to alienate LOVEBITES fans, so that they like and subscribe to the channel, you need to sweeten the pill: "LOVEBITES are good musicians, but...."
*** The song "Set the World on Fire" on this channel gained 11,000 views in 7 days. The reaction to ONE song LOVEBITES in 7 days has many times more views than all other reactions to other bands combined during the entire existence of the channel !!!!
I think that the same will happen with other Japanese bands whose fans will offer listen to their favorite bands.
I'm leaving this reaction at 7:03 because I have hard similar stuff from other reactors as your prefatory statements. Just simply give your fair reviews without justifying your criticism, just give fair review like David Heretic does. I sometimes don't agree with him but I respect his opinion because he gives criticism without justification, he gives "his opinion" with his good background of music. You said you have good experiences as a musician, so just give fair review. That is enough and people here will understand that. Just make it sure it is merely "your opinion", not like a word of god.
Yes, dude talks smack. I'd love to hear his tunes and see if he's more than just talk.
Lesson #1, don't trash talk any musicians. It's so easy to analyze music. You can spot a lot borrowing. Even Def Leppard coping a Police tune. They did a great job though.
Ritchie was perhaps the first Rocker to play the Dorian mode. Everyone from Rhodes, Brian May, Lukather, Vai, Madian, and nearly every Rocker who plays with the accent in heavy began plàying it after "In Rock" and "Machine Head."
@@user-fq3me9ur7c Great comment.
Here's a change of pace Miyako starts the song with a Piano solo of Chopin (His revolutionary Etude) Asami wrote the lyrics inspired by Chopin's Revolutionary etude (The failed revolution of Poland against their government with help from Russia.

We - Wolfpack brothers and sisters around the world are waiting...
Dude, you are so freaking wrong about where it all started, you need to go back even further with bands like Montrose, UFO, Judas Priest, Frank Marino, Pat Travers, Robin Trower, April Wine, and Triumph to fully understand where the bands you so love got their shit from including Eddie Van Halen, they all borrowed riffs from one man, the Greman master Michael Schenker, and the British master Ritchie Blackmoore, and the Irish blues-rock master Gary Moore. Those three guitarists are the ones who started it all, when these ladies began to study the masters of yesteryear guess who they got influenced by and they have said it in their interviews. I am so sick of idiots who say this sounds like slayer, guess what before slayer there was Metallica and Megadeth, this is a Metallica vibe, not slayer. No it is not a pentagram of slayer, look at it correctly. Slayer uses their upside down for evil and Lovebites uses their right side up for themselves, just like the Star of David all against the norms of evil metal they are creating a more pure white metal the complete opposite, it is why they call themselves "The Lonewolf of metal" hence the name wolfpack logo
WHERE DOES TONY IOMMI STAND IN YOUR LIST? PLEASE?
Right on though We all need to go back even further than THAT. You know it goes back forever-I guess Im older-I saw CreamClapton-Hendrix-Zeppelin/Page-Beck, Santana-Iggy and Stooges as WELL as Blackmore /Deep Purple and Moore {sorry-they didn't start "it" either} and everyone else during that period -all of them on numerous occasions--they all learned their stuff from someone b4 THEM. I just like that despite that I know from my self absorbed lofty perch of having been to Woodstock and spent half of my early20's life at the Fillmore East who "really" started "it" that I still get excited listening to Love Bites. Everyone has an opinion-I rarely give mine-but felt it necessary after listening to the reaction by that guy. Thanks for your comment.
Miyako cites British guitarist Gary Moore as the inspiration for her solo in Break the Wall. That's why she is using her Les Paul. Fans generally consider that Lovebites' live performances are superior to their studio recordings..Other bands to check out are Nemophile, Bridear, FateGear,, Mary's B;ood, Aldious, Unlucky Morpheus, Wagakki Band, Maximum the Hormone, Serenity in Murder, Asterism, Doll$Boxx, Gacharic Spin, Hanabiem Trident for starters.
Bloody Lovebites! Midori The Chaos Bringer!
Well,it's funny that you added def leppard's song love bites in this video..that the first time i discovered this band..that time i was searching on youtube def leppard mv love bites because i wanted to see the video..but suddenly band called lovebites appeared as the result..i was curious at that time,so clicked one of their videos shadowmaker and played it...in a second it blew me away..wow i loved it instantly..and i listen to them everyday ever since ..lovebites forever..🐺🤘🔥..
Had to laugh when you paused right BEFORE Miyako's solo to gripe about solos with no emotion ;)
That had me chuckling also
My top fav LB track right here. You really liked MIYAKO "The Golden Touch". Check out HOLY WAR for a closer look at MIDORI "The Crazy Shredder" next. Left-hand finger procession in her solo following MIYAKO is mind boggling. Enjoy: th-cam.com/video/bgAxpEpEcno/w-d-xo.html 🤘🐺🤘
PLEASE DO NOT HELP THE ANTI JAPANESE RACIST. HE CALLED THEM GARBAGE THEN DRESSED IT UP WITH A FEW COMPLIMENTS.
Holy War is a must, then many after!
@@ooobydoob3786 HE CALLED MYAKO'S SOLO GARBAGE AND THEN BLAMED THE WHOLE BAND FOR IT. HE KEPT HARPING ON MIHO WHEN WE KNOW SHE WAS DEVASTATED BY HER FATHER'S DEATH. HE SAID IT SOUNDED LIKE EPILEPTIC FIT GUITAR. MYAKO COMPOSED BREAKING THROUGH A WALL AS VERY DYNAMIC. THIS GUY IS AN ANTI RACIST PRETENDING TO BE COOL. HE KEPT SAYING LOVEBITES MUSIC WAS AN SOUNDING EXACTLY LIKE OTHER MUSIC HE HAD HEARD. HE CAME VERY VERY CLOSE TO ACCUSING THEM OF PLAGERISM. THIS IS NOT WOLFPACK; THIS IS RACIST DRIVEL.
@@ooobydoob3786 Oooby🤘 Hell yes
Lovebites is one word. 🤘💜
I enjoyed your reaction to this song. You should do A Frozen Serenade next. The live version has amazing special visuals that they added so make sure you do the live and not the studio.
And swan song
Next LoveBites: “Signs of Deliverance” Live! 🐺🎸🔥🤘
Some people say that rock is not dead, it just moved to Japan.
if you guys want to listen to a studio version of Lovebites do Burden of Time Studio Live please let me know what you think
Now that was a great reaction. I love the bit where you’re waxing lyrical about Skolnick solos while the rest of us all knew what was coming. Dimebag is one of Miyako’s guitar heroes and she has a copy of his signature guitar. I’m talking out of my comfort zone here because I only know these names because of interviews and other fans. My guitar hero is Ritchie Blackmore, another guitarist she grew up listening to (her mom was into Rainbow and Purple) and there is an awesome TH-cam video of her at NAMM (I think) playing Parisienne Walkways such that her other big influence, Gary Moore, would be proud. I doubt there’s a sub genre of metal that Lovebites haven’t emulated in the 50 released tracks to date.
Great reaction ?😊 Is he implying that LOVEBITES stole everything from his favorite bands.... I don't consider myself a LOVEBITES fan, I just respect this band. But you, fans of LOVEBITES - SHAME!!!!!!
@@GrayFox14 if you listen carefully he says “influences” several times. Both of them, like a lot of reactors, will draw comparison with Slayer and Metallica when they hear “Break the Wall”. Lovebites often consciously set out to write a track with one of their influences in mind, which is the case for Miho I believe with this one. Cut him some slack. I criticised his first reaction, not because of what he said and did but how he said and did it, which gave me, the viewer, the impression that he wasn’t really paying attention to the band. But this whole reaction has made amends, and I think was intended to make amends. Unlike some reactors, one in particular, he hasn’t dug his heels in and given us all the middle finger.
@@alekhidell Maybe you're right. I got the impression that True Brodown treats the LOVEBITES as just another band copying famous bands.
@@GrayFox14 WHEN SO CALLED FANS ACT LIKE WHORES THEN LOVEBITES WILL DRAW MORE AND MORE AHOLE REACTORS. I AM ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED AT HOW MANY SO-CALLED WOLFPACK ACT LIKE WHORES. ALL THESE TUFF SOUNDING NAMES AND TUFF PICTURES, BUT THEY ARE A BUNCH OF POOFTERS.
Hell yeah! Your channel so react anyway you want...it's all good! Just glad you're reacting to them, so much more to go. Many ppl think this is similar to Testament's 'over the wall' song. That would be Miyako, dark-haired lead. i saw The Awakening / Hammer of Wrath and Winds of Transylvania requested, I would add M.D.O. live and Thunder Vengeance live also, both bangers. Thunder Vengeance is the opener to their 2020 show, absolute banger!
Keep in mind, they also do lots of power metal so you should check it out. Some ridiculous solo-ing, not new, but ridiculous.
MDO live th-cam.com/video/RzyIFE-eRH8/w-d-xo.html old Metallica vibes
Thunder Vengeance live th-cam.com/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/w-d-xo.html 1st 15secs absolutely face-melting and that's how you open a show!
Signs of Deliverance live th-cam.com/video/o6oVfCzruHQ/w-d-xo.html throwing this one in for good measure, when the lights go red...when was the last time you saw that? 🙂
I didn't consider Over the Wall but that's a pretty fair comparison. I heard Metallica cadences with Slayer drums and rythyms. All are exceptional musicians so these girls have great influences. They have a bright future ahead.
@@truebrodown Also heavily influenced by Maiden so you may not like all of their stuff. But they do some songs that show they are talented AF. They don't just do thrash, power, progressive and metal ballads to! Not all of it will be your cup of tea which is perfectly fine. Wait till you see Miyako on the piano, a F virtuoso...once in a lifetime talent imho. Much more to explore if you're up to it!
@@maxmaidiac2237 Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I have no problem with ppl not liking Lovebites, just don't say they're not talented. Fair enough?
I can sort of hear what you mean about The Creeping Death, but this song has always reminded me a bit more of My Apocalypse
SO glad you were excited and that you were aware that everything they did was stolen from everyone else. Ive seen everything -too. I saw Hendrix-Zeppelin-Who and everyone else back then numerous times all of whom learned from someone b4 them. Every guitarist was great then and got a riff from someone else-when I listen o great music as this was I spend little time looking down my nose pontificating about where that riff REALLY came from back un the day when "music was music".
My Lovebites 🏴 🐺🤘...Definitely not a Maniac, listening to BandAid 😁
😂🐺🤘
My top 3 favourite Japanese bands :
1 - Lovebites
2 - Galnerius
3 - Unlucky Morpheus
Lovebites Galneryus and Ningen Isu for me. In that order.
@@ChadTheDragonLord Ningen Isu is one of my old favourites.
Great lists. I like all of those bands, especially Galneryus ans Ningen Isu.
I keep adding new ones. Right now I'm carefully watching Hagane - Super Villain caught my attention, they are definitely going in the right direction. Same with Trident, and Spoopy. And Nemophila is just Blossoming (see what I did there?😃) before out eyes.
This is just Lovebites. They just kill it...me an old metalhead growing up with your fav bands myself, I am freaking out how talented these women are🤘🏽
Great reaction. M&M is one of the best guitarduos I know about. Always bringing what the song needs... Their guitar harmonies are first class!
...also... your daughter got the most amazing eyes. Really cute!
Came back again to this great reaction. Miyako is amazing, prodigy level on guitar and piano. Love her sound. Lovebites is simply better than everyone else. They can take 6 different influences from different sub genres, distill, blend, and age it perfectly into one freaking song. None of the past greats could do that. And they are all elite level musicians. I grew up with the love for the same bands you did (I'm 62) and seen them all in concert. I may have heard it all before, but never collectively from one band who does it to perfection.
Just a small note, but if you want to insert a music clip from a "Love Bites" song to introduce Lovebites segments, you would be better off using Halestorm's "Love Bites (So Do I)," as that is the song they are actually name after. The Def Leppard and Judas Priest songs of the same name are just coincidental. The Halestorm song relates directly to them.
I was one of those who criticized you. Now seeing this I understand you and I ask you to accept my apologies. When I'm wrong I admit it. Your reaction was very good this time. And although the previous one was not good to my liking, perhaps I should not have been so "unfriendly".
But everything you said now was very correct. I know when someone knows about metal because I too have been listening to things like Metallica, Pantera, Testament, Slayer, Stratovaruis, Meshuggah, Angra, Rhapsody, Dream Theater, Symphony X, Sepultura and a long etcetera, for more than 30 years. So I agree one hundred percent with all the comments you made regarding the song.
It's all good. It's fascinating to see young Japanese girls playing 80s thrash. Gives me hope for the future. In the states, kids are turning metal into a mixture of boy band and Djent music. It's become discouraging. They use drum machines and electronic auto tuning.
@@maxmaidiac2237 You have issues dude. Seek therapy.
@@truebrodown Sorry Bro, some Wolves are rabid . . . 🐺
@@truebrodown I would not worry about that guys statement I didn’t think you where referring to Midori’s solo (blonde guitarist) but a male guitarist (I forgot the name you mentioned lol) but I’m sure you weren’t referring to her in general am I right?
@@Mrlovebitten I'd have to rewatch it but if I recall I compared it to Kerry King from Slayer. I hate his solos. But, I love his rythyms and I'm a huge Slayer fan. So I don't have to like every second of every song to love the music. Pantera is my favorite band ever and The Great Southern Trendkill disappointed me. So, can't win them all!
oh boy....these are gonna be good. some bands you will love and some will be "wtf was that". but it's a new take on our 80s music played almost solely by japanese women and I love it!
looking forward to your upcoming reactions.
HE CALLED LOVEBITES GARBAGE, WHAT PART OF THAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?
Memories 30 years , hahahah...but this best band
The Best band now
Next song pls check out [the awakening+the hammer of wrath] this one has a incredible solos by Midori and Miyako. And i would recommend for you guys a band called Dir En Grey from japan too. The lead vocal for this band is one of the best alive nowaday. If interested try [karasu eng sub live hd] this band is most experimental🤘🏻
Speaking of Eddie Van Halen Lovebites studio version of their song Winds of Transylvania would be a great choice for a studio song. They do some phenomenal guitar squeals in it.
5minutes of pure guitar chaos! Like they were shot out of a cannon. Do the live version or the VLADLOVE anime version; Lovebites was asked to the opening for an anime show, VLADLOVE (vampire). 🙂
He hated Midoris solo here...and he will probably hate her in Winds of Transylvania... 😅
@@morganolsson1993 That's all good, no denying the talent though...omg is she F talented! 🎸
@@morganolsson1993 Possibly but I don't think so. Midori's solo in BtW is chaotic but in WoT it is a little more structured and the squeals were reminiscent of Eddie Van Halen's Eruption which was someone he mentioned.
@@ChadTheDragonLord he says there are no new sound to make, but heck if I ever heard anything like Winds of T! Totally insane. What bands are copied here??
I would have added influences from Iron Maiden and Adrian Smith & Bruce Dickinson.
you should react to the japanese instrumental band Asterism and their song Dawn and the video to play is the first one i believe that shows up on youtube it is amazing the girl is 16 yrs old in the video and people say she is one of the best guitarist in the world at that age please let me know what you think

@@truebrodown here is the link to Asterism Dawn th-cam.com/video/buQPvINJcA0/w-d-xo.html
If you're to react to other bands, try Nemophila for the next one. "Dissension" can be your first song from them to react to, and IMO still their heaviest one. Thanks for this reaction!! Starting to like your style 😁
We reacted to them and should be up Wednesday I believe.
@@truebrodown nice to know. Be waiting for that!!
I always found it amusing how Hanneman and King took pains in the song credits to identify who played which solo, considering how bad they were.

Don’t sleep too long on BAND-MAID; these ladies have revitalized hard rock in ways I’m sure you will appreciate. Start with the pre-pandemic concert footage of Domination to get a feel of the band dynamic. Then watch the Manners & Black Hole two-fer from live stream to see how far their song writing has progressed with their most recent album.
"I'M HUGE IN JAPAN 巨根" It made me (most Japanese) laugh and facepalm.
LOVEBITES 🐺 Incredible
Bands like Band-Maid, Lovebites and Nemophila base their sound on classic styles of rock and metal. If you want to hear something more original try Sokoninaru. Wagakki Band is another band that probably sounds like nothing you've heard before with their mix of traditional Japanese music and rock.
Michael Schenker has been a Dean player for a very long time now.
I think Set the World on Fire is more Testament than others. Miyako's solo is more Gary Moore than Skolnick.
Nice reaction. One thing I will say though is, like so many people do, they want to compare to other bands. In some cases I feel a band may be more directly pulling from another band, but I do not feel that way about Lovebites. You said the key word - influenced. I am not the type of person who will say this sounds like this and that sounds like that. Lovebites has thrown into a metal pot so many different metal variants and makes it their own unique genre. This is my second favorite Lovebites song (live is better than studio in this case), and my favorite song(s) is The Awakening/The Hammer of Wrath from this same concert, Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020.
Lovebites is my favorite band. I am 62 and have been listening to metal since 1971 (Zeppelin). I love thrash, power, and speed metal the most, but like all genres of metal. I was in my 20's when Metallica, Exodus, and others came along, Exodus being my favorite thrash band. These ladies wear their influences on their sleeves and make no bones about it.
I will be 62 this December and I started with Grand Funk, Deep Purple and Zeppelin. For the last 40 years I have been a huge Iron Maiden fan along with Megadeth, Motorhead, and others. It was nice reading your calm, intelligent and accurate comment about his reaction to Lovebites. I read too many silly temper tantrum comments before I got to yours.
@@danw6048 "....read too many silly temper tantrum comments ?" This suggests that MANY people believe that this reactor showed disrespect and arrogance! This is your temper tantrum. 😄It is unpleasant for you to read that you are licking a reactor who expressed disrespect for LOVEBITES, especially in the first reaction.
Love Polyphia, I hear you. But honestly, if you play Lovebites back to back with Iron Maiden or Helloween, Lovebites are cleaner, faster, heavier and most important, their songwriting is much more mature. And to their credit, they always give kudos to those predecessor bands, but they have surpassed the masters.
JESUS CHRIST, I SEE SO SO MANY SO-CALLED WOLFPACK KISSING THE A$$ OF A LOVEBITES ABUSER THAT I AM BEGINNING TO THINK ONLY SHEEPLE LIKE LOVEBITES. I CAN SEE YOUR DEFINATE HINTS TO THE JERK REACTOR AND KNOW THAT HE DARE NOT DEBATE YOU. MOST OF THE SO CALLED JMETAL FANS ARE JUST PURELY SPINELESS POSERS. TIME AFTER TIME I SEE A SADISTIC REACTORS CROSS THE LINE INTO ANTI JAPANESE RACISM.I CHECK AND THEY ARE HUNKY DORRY WITH ALL EURO FEMALE ROCK/METAL. WTF? WTF, ARE AMERICANS STUPID OR SPINELESS OR BOTH? THE DUDE IS STARTING TO BEHAVE BETTER BUT I THINK IT IS MOSTLY BECAUSE HIS VIEWS JUMPED WAY WAY UP WITH LOVEBITES.
Who the hell people here saying we need reactor to blown away?
I wanna see it!
Sorry, but as a Wolfpack, we're not doing that..
And I'm sorry if you met people like that..
But I beg you, don't blame the band for having some fans like that..
Also as a Wolfpack, my mission is to share Lovebites music to more people around the world as much as possible..
So don't worry about the reaction, guys..
As long as you guys enjoy the music, it's enough..
No need to talk about skill or talent, because Lovebites is the Masterpiece itself..
Thank you for sharing..
Hope you guys have a great day!
Want a studio song ? --> Lovebites - Shadowmaker
Love *_Iron Maiden_* ? ---> Lovebites - The Crusade
Since you love thrash songs from Lovebites, I'm recommend Winds Of Transylvania & The Hammer Of Wrath.

Miyako is heavily influenced by Gary Moore
I enjoyed your reaction to this great song by Lovebites. I am sorry that you have been attacked by some Lovebites fans. It seems like every community, even a fan community like the Wolfpack, will have a few lunatics and drunks. I am sure other commenters have told you that this song was cowritten by Miho, the unfortunately ex- bassist, and Miyako, the guitarist on stage left. Miyako also did the arrangement of the song. Miyako has been the primary songwriter of the band, having written almost half their catalog. One of Miyako's several influences is the great Ritchie Blackmore, and like Blackmore, she has a big background in classical music. In fact she could have a career as a classical pianist and has expressed the thought of releasing a classical album. The DNA of the band, however, comes from Miho. Miho's biggest influence is Steve Harris and it definitely shows in her playing. I haven't figured out the reason she left the band but it doesn't seem like it was internal band friction. She was the truest metalhead of the band and will be missed.
Since your first Lovebites reaction was to a Miyako song and this one was a Miho and Miyako cowritten song, I suggest your next song be one written by Miho. It is called Thunder Vengeance and Miho wrote it after watching Slayer live in concert at a festival. The video will also show you how Lovebites starts a concert.
Thunder Vengeance - th-cam.com/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/w-d-xo.html
I can’t answer your commentary to my "SHAME THE FANS ....." My answer there for some reason does not let YT pass. Therefore, I will try to answer here:
Baseless temper tantrum happens in women. When they are offended and cannot control their feelings. I'm a man, I'm not offended, I draw conclusions. I am calm as a boa constrictor. My opinion is based on what I saw and heard after watching 1 and 2 reactions to LOVEBITES. If you think that True Brodown is right and showed respect to your favorite band, you can like and subscribe to the channel True Broaddown. And continue to admire him.
"..even in a fan community like Wolfpack, there will be a few crazy and drunk people."
Your desire to insult those who criticize True Brodown and please him is laughable. Bravo!
As I understand it, having written about drunkards and crazy people, you included me in the list of "crazy and drunkards". I bring to your attention that I have been doing sports all my life, I don’t smoke, I don’t drink alcohol and other filth. My brain is in order too.
* I consider those who praise reactors who show disrespect for their "favorite band" to be sycophants
@@GrayFox14 So you are sexist also. Temper tantrums happen in both men and women. It has nothing to do with a person's sex, only a person's maturity. Maturity has nothing to do with age. I have seen plenty of adults throw temper tantrums. I hope someday that your maturity matches your ego. Strive to develop the class and grace of the band that you claim to admire so much.
@@GrayFox14 Not sure if your brain is in order but you a very entertaining. By the way, calling me a sycophant was also giving this reactor a huge complement, but I doubt you understand that.
@@danw6048 Sexist? Funny.😄 Do you even understand what you wrote? I have several female friends. Unlike many men, I can sincerely be friends with women. And not just to have sex. A man DOES NOT have tantrums if he is a MAN. Women have tantrums. And they are connected with the structure of the female endocrine (hormons) and nervous systems. This is short. It's a shame for a lawyer of your age and life experience not to know this. Although ..... everyone judges for himself. You are a male lawyer who can get tantrums ?! How hard it is for you to live ....... I sincerely empathize with you🌹🥀🌷🌺
*Advice : start doing Qigong, Yoga, Tai Chi Quan.
There isn't a single metal band after 1990 that hasn't been influenced by the big ones . And in the future new bands will be influenced by Lovebites and other new big ones. The great thing about Lovebites is that they aren't about to go to a nursing home.
My favorite band ever. The talent on stage is unbelievable. They even dislodged Nightwish (who I still love). They do sometimes sound like this band or that, but always, they have their spin on it, their technical additions, and some modern flair. Or they'l just go off and you get something like Frozen Serenade or Edge of the World. Amazing. I have to see them live.
The guitarist using the dean guitars is Miyako she started as a classical pianist first and learned guitar much later guitarist second As for dean there were many plyers before Dime on the Dean's endoresed artist list but Dime was A pointy guitarist era. Dean made instruments used by bands such as Heart, Kansas, the Cars, Molly Hatchet, Triumph and ZZ Top.
I have a gibson flying vee and the first player I saw using one was a blues player Albert King, and the next was Michael Shanker Both were before Randy Roads. The Explorer for me was Mathias Jabbs from the Scorpions. Which pre-dates Hetfield.
these ladies did a cover of judas priest - painkiller also if u guys would like to check it out.
You really ought to check out LOVEBITES Holy War live at Zepp Diver City next. It's amazing plus the film quality/sound are top notch.
midori has stage presence for days
You said "Am I Evil" but you sang "Creeping Death" lol. Seriously tho, good catch on that; definitely similar.
Nice reactions. Lovebites is awesome 👍
Yeah lol. Brodown Elmo got me on that one too. I had the right song, wrong title. These girls could show Metallica how to play thrash again.
second attempt to lower them down to simple plagiarists. since you are a musician since 30 years (btw never heard of you) and know every note, harmony and chord, which has been ever played: maybe it´s time for a new hobby for you.
Have you ever heard the expression "get off your high horse"? If not, you better look it up because you are getting a nose bleed up there. While you are at it, pull that stick out too.
You're right , CoffeineNightOwl ! Pay no attention to DanW60 and people like him. They belong to the class of reptiles, they have "a very flexible spine". I think you understand what I mean ......😉 DanW60 is rude to everyone who dares to criticize this reactor. He calls them drunkards, crazy people, sexists. If you answer him harshly, DanW60 an a temper tantrum and he runs away .
Oh I hope no one gave you shit in the TH-cam comments, it sometimes can get pretty wild. I didn't see anything wrong with the former video.
And yeah recently Miyako (the girl with the Dean) gave an interview to Marty Friedman that now is in a show in Japan about rock and she mentioned that Dimeback was one of her top5 guitar players, so yeah, that's it.
Let's see this new video. I hope you check more songs from them, they are doing very interesting stuff.
Oh, if you want to listen something from studio, you might want to check *Mastermind 01,* one of their hidden gems because it has never been played in any DVD.
On the japanese metal girls scene the big four acts right now are probably Lovebites, Band Maid, Nemophila and of course Babymetal, but it goes a lot deeper. Lovebites as you know, very inspired by the classics, the big ones. Nemophila more leaning on rock and metal from the 90s, with strong rebel attitude. I recommend RAITEI or Dissension from them. Band Maid is very inspired in japanese rock. And Babymetal you never know what to expect, though it seems you know them already.
And man I feel this last comment, I think I've barely found anything that made me interested this last 20 years. Until I found this new japanese scene a couple of years ago.
👍👍 request ～ baby metal ( kami band intro live) ・ kagerou
very good reaction, LOVEBITES is the best metal band today. this is Thrash Metal, they have a lot to react to these queens of metal...🤘🤘🤘🤘greetings from Argentina.
Nemophila - Hypnosis will twist your minds for sure
Miyako 🤘🏽
Since you keep referring to the band Slayer I thought I would check them out since I never listened to them before. I didn't think much about the band. For short hair/ bald guys head banging looked funny to me and didn't care much for their playing style I am offended you compare Lovebites to them.
You've never heard Slayer before? That's crazy. They are the forefathers of metal. The song I refer to is Raining Blood. The picking patterns of Lovebites in this song follow that blueprint. A very difficult blueprint to play.
I was never a huge Slayer fan growing up but once I started playing guitar my respect grew. Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman were right handed machines. Blistering speed that influenced generations of metal. Their drummer Dave Lombardo is credited with creating metal drumming today.
I guarantee you Lovebites are very familiar with Slayer. Them along with Exodus, Metallica and Anthrax created Thrash metal. Something Lovebites plays a lot.
Also, since you asked, when you do get around to reacting to Nemophila, it is pronounced "neh-mo-fee-la." There is no "i" at the end. Google will tell you it is pronounced "neh-MOFF-il-la," which is how the flower they are named for is pronounced, but they pronounce it "neh-mo-fee-la," as in Japanese, most syllables end with a vowel sound, making it awkward for them to pronounce most syllables that end with consonant sounds.
With Nemophila, you will find a more modern metalcore type sound, as opposed to the 80s-inspired retro sound of Lovebites. At least with their original material. However, they have several covers on the TH-cam page that are covers of classic 80s and 90s bands, including Iron Maiden, Helloween, Metallica, AC/DC, Kiss, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Skid Row, Journey, Nickelback, and even Pink, as well as some covers of their Japanese cohorts X-Japan, Maximum the Hormone, Babymetal, and a few others.
Nemophila mostly plays covers (or retro songs). There are very few original songs. Don't expect a good response from these reactors.
@@GrayFox14 The number of originals is growing, though. They have a full album of originals out, plus two new releases from their forthcoming second album. So right now, there are thirteen original songs available (though not all of them have videos).
@@garykeeling2275 And 34 covers. That's why I wrote that they play more retro 70-80 s
@@garykeeling2275 I believe quite a few of those "Original" songs were written by their producer and not the band, what up with that?
@@guitarzen5999 Their producer Kensuke Akiyama collaborates with Saki for the songwriting on about half the songs, and has some input on the others. Saki, Mayu, and Haraguchi-san all also have solo songwriting credits, but Saki is the main composer overall. Mayu also writes most of the lyrics, except for Hypnosis, for which Hazuki wrote the lyrics. All members also contribute to the composition of their individual instruments. So Nemophila originals are Nemophila originals, although there is some collaboration with outside sources (much like Lovebites collaborates with Mao and Nana Hatori).
🤘🐺🤘
Like your observations. Subbing.
Check out The Warning. Rock/Metal. 3 sisters from Mexico who can sound like 6. Fairly deep songwriting. Currently touring and dropping videos of it.
More band comparisons....see ya
Good reaction and explanations. I’ll have to defer to your knowledge of the 80s metal bands because I grew up with Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Jethro Tull, Jefferson Airplane, Deep Purple, and Blue Oyster Cult, just to name a few heavy from the mid 60s to the mid 70s. By the time Iron Maiden, Metallica, Kiss, Megadeth, and Slayer came along, they had no luster for me I saw them as mere ho-hum imitation wannabes. It wasn’t until Lovebites came along that my interest in heavy and speed metal was reignited. These ladies have captured the original spirit of the original heavy masters and have surpassed the imitators. But if you wanna compare notes sometime, I can talk Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, Jimi Hendrix, and Jimmy Page all day long. It’s great to be from different musical generations because I can still learn thing from you young guns too.
@@maxmaidiac2237 I don’t think that is his intent. But his opinion is based on his prior experiences and it may sound to some like he’s accusing, but even his bands from his era “borrowed” musical phrases from the previous bands of my era. In my opinion, Lovebites have captured the spirit of music from the past and added their own style and repackaged it in a way that honors all musicians without being a cover band. Lovebites are a great band and a great phenomenon.
OMG you just gave me a flashback moment. I was a huge fan and saw BOC 5 times 'back in the day' ... 🎶Oh, no, they say he's got to Go...🎶 Great list from the early days. IMHO King Crimson and Pink Floyd invented Prog, and with Burn, Deep Purple singlehandedly invented Heavy Metal in 1974. I too was pretty much turned off by the 'Metal' scene for 30 years or so and I am STOKED to find that actual Heavy Metal is Alive and Well . . . in Japan.
@@FaintlyTapping Funny. Your favorite band is being disrespected, and you continue to admire the reactors.
@@Patrick_H. You have a typo. Sorry, but "Burn" this is 1974. You helped me out once when I made a typo with Midori. Now it's my turn to help you😊
@@GrayFox14 Nice catch... fixed it
Next react too THUNDER VEANGENCE sir,,, ⚡⚡⚡
I get it now, give this duo something new something that could break the wall,
if you still wanted to walk the Lovebites road, a different feel, how about Under the Red Sky
Onmyo-za (陰陽座) - 組曲「九尾」～照魔鏡 (japanese prog)
Lisa X band -Looking up to you (modern)
Ningen Isu -Namahage (doomish)
Wagakki Band -homura +akatsuki no ito (folk/modern)
Miho Miho Miho!
Definately check out Nemophila. amazing band, any song you pick will be good
Why need to compaired to others band?
Ur 30 years knowledge didnt reach this girls level.
Stop saying slayer ..🤭
You should check out Marty friedman's "Rock Fujiyama" in YT with LOVEBITES, NEMOPHILA, Karry King and Paul Gilbert :)
slayer, then metallica. just say old school thrash. and your way off from creeping death bro.
they have old school
metal influence. but they are original. that is not a kerry king solo bro.
lmafao
I think your comments in the first reaction were fair. Some fans can get a bit overexcited, so don't take it too much to heart. I personally really enjoy Midori's solo here, but it is certainly one of her more chaotic ones and I can see why people wouldn't like that. She has plenty of other awesome solos though, so keep digging into their discography. And I agree that Polyphia are pretty mindblowing.
Midori's solo is a musical expression of Breaking The Wall, followed by stepping forward to revel in her success...
chaotic? Breaking a wall with music could not be more accurately written & performed, music and physical expressions, imo.
One of Midori's greatest guitar solo achievements, defined in two parts, then transitions the entire mood of the song with her slow arpeggiated chords, joined by Miho's bass, from most intense to the most serene portion of any LOVEBITES song, for Miyako to offer her soulful expressions.
@@dregeye Dont get me wrong, I really like her solo as I've said. Maybe "chaotic" wasn't the best term. Is "frantic" better? It's not as melodic as some of their other solos. That's probably what I meant to say. Sorry, if my comment wasn't entirely clear.
@@cepho8349 Well, breaking a wall can sound chaotic. My point is to bring attention to Midori presenting a musical expression of what the song is about. Can't have a solo like Miyako's to express breaking a wall, eh?
I'm just kinda sensitive to pretty much anything 'dismissive' of any member's 'works'.
Miyako does not seem to be the 'target' of such, ever... Which is fine, except when the others' works are not recognized, and in this case, not 'properly understood', (always 'in my opinion' of course).
I honestly think that Midori's solo in this song is a masterful accomplishment in composition & performance, and will likely continue to 'explain' that perspective.
Thanks for your kind and understanding reply, however, this reactor's comments in his first LOVEBITES video were insulting to Wolf-Pack and disrespectful of LOVEBITES such that I completely disagree with your 'opening line' of agreement with THAT video/comments. I asked him some questions in response to his rude replies to my attempts to kindly explain some things and, in spite of his "come at me bro" thumbnail, he did not respond to any of my questions. I don't appreciate this guy's attitude, but maybe you & others can 'bring him around'.
I didn't watch the first past his "low-cut top" comment, and will not be watching this one at all. There is no point with a person who announces "come at me bro" but does not respond when confronted.
Also like to say that I appreciate your comments on LOVEBITES videos, (except that opening line &:-) and just wanted to point out that Midori's solo is showing us what the song is about! Breaking a Wall & reveling in the success! I consider her transition to slow arpeggiated serenity to be a part of her 'solo' too...
A spectacular display of virtuosity, imo. How many techniques does she perfectly transition between to 'say' what she had to say to us? Amazing!
"....comments in the first reaction were fair ?" "...some fans can get a bit overexcited ? "
In the first reaction disregard for LOVEBITES was shown.
You are probably the fan who get a bit overexcited and licks😛 the person who snubbed LOVEBITES😂🤣
@@maxmaidiac2237 He didn't like Midori's solo. Not the whole band. That's a big difference. And that's fair. Not everyone has to like everything Lovebites have put out out. You have to accept that.
too much speak
I can,t hear music
Nemophila ”Revive”.
I believe we did Dissention. That's scheduled for Wednesday.
Lovebites is a group of talented ladies. Sure they studied metal from 80's & 90's. Composed and play their song to its finest and perfectly possible. True spirit of metal.. yeah!! Great reaction guys 👍👍👍🤘🤘🔥🔥
Try a band called Unlucky Morpheus
Well if you're doing a Japan metal week, I'd suggest checking out:
Maximum the Hormone - Yoshu Fukushu
Unlucky Morpheus - Cadaver/Revadac
Crystal Lake - Aeon
Crossfaith - Monolith
Just for a bit more diversity in styles
Chose any Lovebites you can’t go wrong to me this is more 70s style with a modern song
70 s ????🤣😂
@@GrayFox14 I think has a power voice like Ann Wilson of heart and the duo guitar like Skynyrd,Molly Hatchet and Priest all 70s bands
@@Gsc-2112
It seems to me that LOVEBITES songs were influenced by the 80s, 90s, etc. In the 70s, hard rock still prevailed, if we are talking about heavy music (Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Rainbow, etc. ), heavy metal was just beginning to emerge. The same Judas Priest was still not as popular as they became in the 80s. In the late 70s, punk rock was generally at the top. But with the beginning of the 80s, a wave of heavy metal rose ("old school")
@@GrayFox14 generally agree. A few Lovebites songs such as Burden of Time do have a bit of a classic rock feel though.
@@cepho8349 You're right. The keyboard solo in "Burden of Time" made me think of J.Lord and K.Hensley, whom I still love. Although Miyako's keyboards sound different. Since Miyako's mother was a fan of Deep Purple and R. Blackmore's Rainbow, Miyaka grew up with this music. I think that Miyako's composing talent is primarily the merit of her mother, who instilled in her daughter a good musical taste. All great bands and musicians have learned from the musical material that was created by previous generations. To become a good musician, you have to learn from someone. But this does not mean that LOVEBITES copy someone. It infuriates me when a person declares that LOVEBITES is copying someone. Either the person has not listened to this group enough or he is an idiot ! Years will pass and LOVEBITES will become classics. And beginner musicians will learn from their songs....
I also hear musicians and can hear their influences. EVH blatantly plays a boogie we've heard from other artists in the past.
How many players did their own Hiway Star? Just taking the harmonic minor scale after Blackmore really intoduced it to Rockers. Chuck Berry shuffles, a gazillion. SRV gets heat for his Albert King licks. Randy Rhodes was influenced by Johnny Winter and Blackmore. Everyone borrowed from Roy Buchanan mi in the early 70's. We all learned and we're influenced by those that came before.
Even Mozart and LvB. Beethoven's early pieces are heavily influenced by Mozart.
Well known, the connection between Mozart to Mahler to Shostakovich ect.
However, when I hear someone playing Richie's licks, l think it's a great complement. The gal who plays the Dean in lovebites claims she never really studied Ritchie. She was a concert pianist until she turned 18. However, her mom listened to to Purple and Rainbow day and night. She may not have coped his licks, but you can definitely hear his influence.
Me, (GULP), I'm 100% original.
It is unbearable to see racists react to increase their views.
Talk is noisy because it gets in the way of music. Talk ruins the flow of the song.
Then why the hell do you watch reaction videos?
@@danw6048 exactly
King's solos are I think deliberately crafted as chaos, in that there can be little argument hehehe..
That was funny! Cool reaction! :)
I think all Lovebites' songs are different and you have to listen to them all :) :) :) They are awesome. Try "Holy war" - I think this is the most popular video.
Thank you for your reaction. I am waiting for the next Lovebites reaction. And of course you have to watch BAND-MAID - they are very talented musicians. You will be impressed. And there is another Japanese band called Wagakki Band. They are not heavy, but their music is really unique. They mix traditional Japanese instruments with modern metal instruments and this is amazingly beautiful.
They are shouting Die! By! My! Side!
Welcome in my Metal World. Great reaction video. I was born a metalhead. I am a proud member of the Wolfpack. I love all songs and covers of this so talented band from Japan. Bass player Miho (left the band on August 17, 2021) loves Slayer and Testament. Miyako (dark haired guitarist) loves Metallica. This song is one of the few songs that Miho and Miyako created together "musical jacket". And you can feel it from this song. Miyako's guitar solo is in honor of the famous giutarist, Gary Moore. This song is a true masterpiece. One of the best songs of this band. Nemophila is one of my the most favorite all-female metal band from Japan. And one of the best metal band in Japan. Absolutely different metal band than Lovebites. I highly recommend listening to a new song Adabana from the band Nemophila. Keep up the great work. Have a good day with my heartfelt greetings :-).
I believe it is the only song cowritten by Miho and Miyako, with Miyako doing the arrangement. Other than this song, Miyako has always written alone. The only band member that never works with Mao.
@@danw6048 No, the song called The Crusade created Miho and Miyako together too :-). Mao helped a lot to Asami and Miho :-).
@@janhromas7276 The official credits for The Crusade, at least according to the Discogs database, is music by Miyako, lyrics by Miho and arrangement by Miyako and the band. Yes, Mao works with Asami, Midori and Miho in their songwriting but has never worked with Miyako.
@@danw6048 YES, that´s truth. Break The Wall and The Crusade are 2 songs by Miyako and Miho. The only songs these 2 amazing women have collaborated on. You can feel it most on Break The Wall :-).
I recommend a song DISSENTION by NEMOPHILA next！
I grew up with Hendrix-Clapton-Cream-Who-Zeppeliun been to Woodstock--they all had people who influenced them You saw them ALL -Ooh -Im sorry-I don't think you saw them! Those guys ALL talked about the people who influenced them. I used to be the elitist who needed to let everybody know-like you- how the groups after Cream-the Experience etc.-all of whom I saw NUMEROUS TIMES- and I made it a point to let EVERYBODY know it {as you do}and how EVERYTHING was stolen from the REAL musicians. This band IS different than the other metal bands back then-ALL OF WHOM IVE SEEN AS WELL. Lovebites are a lot different and a lot more interesting than all the rest of them and every musician is top notch which was not the case with ANY of those groups.What a useless worthless waste of time talking about how EVERY note came froim SOMEBODY ELSE. Every musician took riffs from someone b4 them.ESLE. OK-you made your point-you heard the real music-I am getting a kick out you guys. Give it a break-spend your time talking about aTHIS group-evetryone of YOUR guys stole their stuff from people b4 them..
