Luck of the draw. Lyn Smith's Suggestion: Holy War by Lovebites reaction video of 2nd Hand Souls band members. Link to our channel: / @2ndhandsoulsmusic Link to our playlists: / @2ndhandsoulsmusic
In any footage i have seen of Haruna's footwork, she usually is wearing a pair of pink trainers. She puts on heels when the show ends and she comes to the front of the stage. All the ladies are on the small side with Haruna at 4ft 9in.
The drummer, Haruna is her name, is using red sneakers to play her double bass drums and hi-hat. At the end of the show, she changes to high heels and goes to the front of the stage to throw her drumsticks to fhe audience. And to get the final applause together with her bandmates.
Next live songs Raise some Hell, Set The World On Fire, The Hammer Of Wrath, Scream For Me, Shadow Maker, When Destinies Align, cover song Pain Killer(Judas Priest), all songs in English and with crazy dual guitars solo's Another TOP all female Japanese Metal Bands NEMOPHILA - songs Revive, Dissension, Raitei, and live at Whisky A GoGo Club Hollywood USA on July 2022 BAND-MAID - live songs Freedom, Domination, Play, Thrill, Dice, On Set, (BANDMAID USA tour start 9th October 2022) HANABIE - songs We Love Sweets, NEET GAME.. ASTERISM - (female guitarist) songs instruMetal, Dawn, Rising Moon, Church, Gunfire, Blaze, watch her solo's and 7string bass solo's
Haruna, drums, wears Red Sneakers. She goes "Full Tilt Boogie" for an entire concert, rumor has it she is nuclear powered.. Midori, ponytail, quit Pharmacy school and began playing the guitar at 20 yo. Miyako, black hair, began piano a 3 yo, at 17/18 yo she decided she wanted to play metal guitar. So she got a guitar and a "How To" book at learned, NO lessons. Asami, vocals, studied ballet until her late teens. At 4' 10" she is bit short for ballet, so she became a singer. Sang primarily R&B and Jazz. She knew nothing about metal until Miho, bass & band founder, chose her for Lovebites. They have performed at music festivals in Europe and toured with Dragon Force in England prior to covid.
Welcome to the world of Japanese metal.. This is Lovebites, and you have over 50 more songs to go.. Take a look at set the world on fire, Hammer of wrath and Rising next Do the lives from the Ride for vengeance tour. There are a great many all female Japanese band that will blow you away.. Band maid, Hagane, Aldious, Trident, Gacharic spin.. The list goes on.. Best wishes to you from France..
Nemophila (also all-female J-metal band) 3 dozen Western-Japanese amazing rock covers... and 2 dozen amazing original songs...starting with "Oiran" (courtesan)
Nemophila has got to be on your radar. Amazing talent. You know that everyone of these musicians began playing Classical piano at 3. or 4. A tradition in Japan - they don't mess around do they.. Even the girls can shred. Nowadays in America, our youth doesn't q Rock. 1 We go to Japan where thankfully Rock is still a live.
Midori (Blond guitarist) plays ESP guitars, Kemper amps and Marshall cabs. Miyako (Brunette guitarist) plays Dean guitars (Has 2 signature models) Peavey (6505+) amps and Orange cabs. Miho (Bassist) plays ESP basses and Darkglass amps and cabs. Haruna (Drummer) uses Pearl drums and Sabian cymbals.🤘🐺🤘
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu Dean just made a signature of the Icon that Miyako usually plays. It has more of a blue center to the paint scheme. My guess is after Dean lost the lawsuit with Gibson, they needed to replace the V, which they're not allowed to make anymore.
what a great background story, are you from japan? my goodness, didn't give you a judgment about the band, but a whole book, and you write neatly about it too. then for all the info, and if you want to give advice, write a nice book 📙 about it, and earn a lot of money with it, these girls are going all over the world one of these days, good luck gr Jan greetings from the Netherlands
Great react, what's scary...Holy War is child's play for them. You want to be blown away by more in your face metal: Set The World On Fire live Break the wall live Winds of Transylvania live Thunder Vengeance live 2020 The Awakening / Hammer of Wrath Raise Some Hell live You want out of this world MASTERPIECES: Swan Song with Chopin intro live A Frozen serenade live Edge of the World live Epilogue live They don't have a single bad song and they have the best lead guitarists in the business, you'll recognize that quickly! Loved the genuine react and the Tux is fitting for the Goddesses in white, they are the best! 🐺🦊 And you do realize the tallest member is 5' 2" and the nuclear drummer is 4' 9". 😀
They named the band after the Grammy winning Halestorm song Love Bites(So Do I). Lead singer Asami has joined Lzzy and the boys on stage performing that song. Midori and Miyako on guitar, Miho on bass(left the band last year), and Haruna on Drums. If you want to see them use the piano, check out 'Swan Song' with Chopin piano intro. BTW, Chrissy, the drummer does wear heels.
She walks out in heels but changes to sneakers once she's behind the kit. You can see her red shoes at the end of "Set the World on Fire," plus her drumming shoes are in every pic she tweets out of her drum kit.
Yep. As others have said, if you want to see Miyako (dark haired guitarist) play the grand piano, have a go at ' Swan Song' live, with the Chopin piano intro. You won't wipe the smiles of your faces for a week. Love the way you guys do your reactions . So refreshing.
LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics: Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood People live in fear, covered in mud Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters There is a thousand, a thousand of evils Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and all for one forevermore Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall Reincarnation, wait for your call Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters Morning star and dying moon Into the Gates of Hell we march Mighty soul, let there be hope Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?

But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for Only have one thing on our mind Facing the fate, holy war ----- lyrics: LOVEBITES music: Mao arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)
Welcome to the Japanese underworld lol. Where will the Fox hole lead now? Perhaps Babymetal Devine Attack-Shingeki is a good place to start which just dropped 3 days ago & it's a banger!! :b NEMOPHILA I would suggest next with Dissension. Then my favorate Band-Maid which is currently on a US tour. Should be tons of fancams out now as they are playing House Of Blues throughout the country. Played at the historic Apollo Theatre & Aftershock Festival. They are best known for their live performances which Jimmy Page once said of their drummer Akane. She is like the reincarnation of John Bonham lol. You may also recognize them from the Kate remake on Netflix. Band-Maid is also opening for Guns and Roses in November. They are insane & we haven't even broken the surface here. 🤘🦊💕
What makes is my favorite band. You should do their song set the world on fire. There's much more other songs that are great. Then you could do nemophila dissension. And my other favorite Japanese band ever those two is band maids freedom live version
I think a few people have suggested "Swan Song" with Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor) as the intro. That's where you will find out what they do with the piano.
That's how my reactions when I heard them for the first time....and it's the same with every new song I hear from them....I hope you keep listening to them because they deserve it....
welcome to LOVEBITES, they play heavy metal and they play it well, pick a song any song, all good, lyrics are great, yes these ladies are friggin awesome....enjoy 👍👍🤘🤘
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 Lovebites is one of the best bands in our country. We say "Japan is the country obsessed by Rock Music". The history is very long and the obsession started in 1966 when Beatles visited Japan and held 5 concerts at Budokan. Speaking of hard rock / heavy metal music, a number of bands started to come to Japan since as early as 1970s : Led Zeppelin / Grand Funk Railroad (1971), Deep Purple (1972), Queen (1975), Kiss (1977), Cheap Trick / Van Halen / Scorpions (1978), Judas Priest (1978/79) and so on. Now, any type of rock can be enjoyed here, especially by many all-female or women-fronted bands. They are daughters of American / European rock, for sure. (Many are grand-daughters in terms of age.) Uh-oh, we also say "Japan is the country obsessed by Jazz". It had started earlier than rock 😄
Fun crew you got there. Thanks for doing this reaction and thanks to Lynn Smith. Welcome to the best new metal band to come along in decades. In their five years of existence as a band, they set a standard that easily puts them on a par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels sent to save us, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. Whatever the description, I think one can say they have given metal a badly needed makeover and maybe a new lease on life. They have themselves said that part of their mission is to save heavy metal from darkness and obscurity. Some background: They were formed in 2016 from the remnants of a legendary all-girl Japanese metal band called Destrose (yes, all-girl metal has been a thing in Japan since at least 1981). Miho (bass, chief headbanger and soul of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the greatest European bands of the golden age of metal. She recruited her former bandmate Haruna (drums, 4'9" “pocket nuclear reactor”); they needed two world-class guitarists, and so they went and found Midori and Miyako, who were with other bands. The whole group then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she also trained in ballet). Miyako has composed most of their music, with Miho composing a lot of their thrashier songs in collaboration with Mao, the lead composer of another band called Lightbringer. Midori has also been getting into the act, and they regularly perform a song written by Haruna as well. Asami writes most of the lyrics. They studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance is that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining. They have incorporated some of the best of each of those bands into their arsenal, and have created a sound that is fresh and cutting edge while paying tribute to the old masters. This is one of their usual first songs for reactors, and rightly so--you get a good sense of the band. They do everything from soulful power ballads to heavy thrash. Almost every song includes face-melting solos by Miyako and Midori. The two guitarists are quite different in style and tone. Midori (blonde ponytail) is the extrovert and speed demon; Miyako is the introvert, with the more soulful feel (though she can also shred like a demon). Midori uses a cleaner tone, Miyako uses more distortion, pinch harmonics and pedal effects. The contrast makes their duets rich and dynamic. It doesn’t hurt that either one can smoke most of the shredders in the classic metal bands. As another reviewer said, "It seems criminal these two are allowed to be in the same band." Here are more clips you should check out: Their most recently posted live clips, “Set the World on Fire” czcams.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/video.html and “Don’t Bite the Dust” czcams.com/video/oHnKGEj1CMc/video.html, which are both from their recently released concert DVD “Heavy Metal Never Dies”. "Edge of the World" and "We the United", back to back: czcams.com/video/sl0-U-ykJCU/video.html They form an incredible journey from darkness and despair to light and hope. Also, “Empty Daydream”, which starts as a ballad and becomes a real rocker: czcams.com/video/lXh_uMM94jU/video.html. Miyako is also a professional-level concert pianist, and was headed for a career in classical music, before picking up the guitar. If you want to see what she can do on the piano, watch “Swan Song” WITH the prelude, which is Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor). Miyako wrote “Swan Song” using elements from several classical pieces including the Etude. This link should work: czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html. For a thrasher with heavy Slayer and Metallica vibes, “Break the Wall” czcams.com/video/G021aP2ao6Y/video.html includes two gorgeous and completely contrasting solos by M&M. For a heart-stopping ballad, “Epilogue” czcams.com/video/1ynnXDfEnnY/video.html (this includes a second song, your choice whether or not to react to both) Finally, while you will sometimes hear you should only react to live clips, actually their MV’s are epic and worth seeing. Here are four of the most spectacular: "Shadowmaker" czcams.com/video/Brmoln5Gxus/video.html This is the song that blew up and melted faces all over the world "When Destinies Align" czcams.com/video/hLFelI93VkM/video.html "Glory to the World" czcams.com/video/-wJtD2XEXH4/video.html "Winds of Transylvania" czcams.com/video/HsE4Ub_Pjh8/video.html. You'll get lots of suggestions, just one thing: don't bother with Bloodstock footage, the sound quality is poor. Best to take suggestions with actual links. Also, you can’t go wrong with any of their official clips. Welcome to the Wolf-Pack!
Helloooooo. The one you have mixed up. You have discovered LOVEBITES. You won't be able to stop reacting to them anymore. I suggest you a song by these talented girls."The hammer of wrath" and "Raise some hell' and a beautiful ballad metal" Epilogue" which is a work of art, a masterpiece, don't miss it A big hug

Really good genuine reaction. Lovebites is incredible! And always better live.. more suggestions are Thunder Vengeance, Set The World On Fire, and Swan Song (with Chopin piano intro).. 🎶🔥
They've become my favorite band. Right there with Nightwish, or even eclipsed them slightly (though I still love Floor and Nightwish). I think Lovebites is the greatest heavy metal band to come along in decades and Midori and Miyako are among the best guitar duos ever to play together. Haruna is unreal on the drums. Miho will be missed for sure, but they added Fami recently. If you come back to them I recommend Thunder Vengeance live from Zepp, or any from the post from TheCyberMantis. Live is best!
Well done on finding Lovebites... arguably the best metal band of the last decade and, in the opinion of their fanatically loyal fans, one of the best of all time. If you'd like to hear a good song by them, my suggestion is that you write down every song they ever wrote on a piece of paper, close your eyes and stick a pin in it. They're ALL good songs ranging from absolute bangers to metal masterpieces. As to a couple of your questions; Haruna, the drummer, plays famously in a pair of red pumps but is always careful to change into her heels before coming out from behind her kit to acknowledge the crowd. She needs all the height boost her heels can give her since she's only 4' 9" in her stocking feet! The other elephant in the room is the grand piano (actually it's an electric Roland piano dressed up to look like a concert grand). That beast is the baby of the dark haired guitarist on the Dean guitar. Her name is Miyako and she is the (slightly) mad genius at the heart of the band; the main composer and a concert standard classical pianist as well as a world class guitarist. If you want to hear her cut loose on that beauty here's a song you'll appreciate. It's called Swan Song and it's a bone fida Lovebites masterpiece; czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html Have fun. This band is the real deal.
They are the real deal !! They won the 2018 Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award for Best New Band!! The Metal Goddesses won’t disappoint!! Please, continue your journey, to fully appreciate the talent of these women! They are truly AMAZING 🤘🐺🤘!
Awesome reaction!! Thank you for checking out Lovebites!! They play many styles, from beautiful ballads to brutal thrash or speed metal!! The grand piano is played by one of the guitarists, Miyako!! Please check out more Lovebites, they are amazing!! 🤘🐺🤘Any song really, you can't go wrong!!
Who's playin' piano? Hold your jaw and buckle up your seatbelt, and take this trip Swan Song with Revolutionary Etude czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html. You'll know who's on the piano. The drummer, 4'9" tall "Big Engine" wears a pair of sneakers while she is playing, and the other members wear high heels.
Thank you! Great reaction! Continue with LOVEBITES, it's the best heavy metal band today! I recommend this song for the next: Set the World on fire czcams.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/video.html Asami❤️👑 Long Live LOVEBITES!🐺🤘 Miho💜 Thank You 💜
Thanks for reacting to amazing Lovebites and spreading the word; they deserve more recognition Well, it seems you’ve just been lovebitten, too. Welcomed to the mind-blowing world of Lovebites. These women are extremely talented, skillful and versatile exceptional musicians. They really shine in their live performances. Their main influences are Iron Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, Helloween, Angra, Judas Priest, Dragonforce, and even Gary Moore, but they have been developing their unique style. Miyako is also a concert-level classical pianist. Asami used to sing R&B, soul and jazz before she joined Lovebites. Those twin lead guitar solos by Midori and Miyako are already legendary, in just six years. Currently the band is in the process to announce the new bassist. In an interview, Miho (ex bassist) said that they wanted to play as heavy as men but keeping their femininity. My next suggestions are “Break the wall”, “The Awakening/Hammer of wrath”, “Set the world on fire”, “Shadowmaker”, “Raise some hell”, “Scream for me”, “When destinies align”, “The crusade”, “Frozen serenade”, “Spellbound”, “Don’t bite the dust”, “Winds of Transylvania”, “Edge of the world”, “Epilogue”. For piano: “Swan song”, “Empty daydream” (all live). Lineup: Haruna - Drums Miho - Ex Bass, backing vocals Midori - Lead & rhythm guitar, backing vocals Miyako - Lead & rhythm guitar, keyboards, classical piano, backing vocals Asami - Lead vocals, some piano When playing drums, Haruna wears red sneakers.
Great to see you really enjoy your first exposure to Lovebites. BTW they have a connection to Nightwish in that they have studio and live concerts mixed and mastered by Mikko Karmila and Mika Jussila at Finnvox.
Love the guy in the shades. Basically telling the others to STFU and start the video again when they stopped the video and started blabbering 😂 You guys are great. Looks like great friends that have known each for a long time.
You 4 are a cool flat share. I'll start something like this in a few years. It looks like it's going to be very, very "gemütlich" in your cabin. Thanks for this good reaction video. Miyako + Midori are the best guitar duo in 3 decades ! All 5 Lovebites women are masters. These Ladies write, compose and arrange their own songs. Almost 50 premium songs in 5 years and not a single weak song. Masters in live playing and geniuses in composing. LOVEBITES: Their gimmick is their ability! - This women play different styles, but always hard and fast. Thrash Metal + Power Metal + Speed Metal + Metal Ballads. We hope for more of you to Lovebites. S u g g e s t i o n s for next reaction V i d e o : Get to know the brutal thrash metal side of Lovebites with one of these songs : ALL LIVE !!!

I love what you guys are doing with the Nightwish reactions! Now you are getting introduced to the other amazing pole of the the rock and metal renaissance - Japan! There is a lot of amazing music coming out of Japan right now, and it's an unexpected but amazing feature of the culture that some of the best rock and metal groups are all female bands. BAND-MAID is another Japanese band that is a must see. Try "Freedom" official live or "Domination" official live, or "Dice" official music video. Thanks so much and God bless! ☺
when it comes to metal these japanese ladies are top notch, now if you want to step down a notch to hard rock, there is also a 5 piece all ladies band from japan called band maid, and when it comes to rock they are top shelf, i recommend you listen to them live, i would suggest "Domination" Live, like i said when it comes to rock and metal this is who i listen to now
Another phenomenal Japanese female band is Band Maid. They're Jimmy Pages favorite band. He loves the drummer. Again, another Japanese band the Rocks hard! The tune "No God" is really good. Listen to Misa's bass lines. Talent on loan from God. Japan still Rocks!
Lovebites surpassed all other videos on this channel in views. However, these people don't do a 2nd reaction video of Lovebites or other top bands like Band Maid and Nemophila. This ignorance is the problem for all fans of all Japanese female metal bands. I will never understand, it's sad.😢
I’m actually moving to Tokyo so I’ll definitely dive into the underground rock scene and post some vids. I’ll let you know if I come across any interesting groups. By the way check out XJapan.
One of the newest J Rock/Metal scene is Iron Bunny;. They're getting high regards from some heavy weight LA Rocker's. Amazing talent, a little shocking at first. World. Class musicians, killer vocals. Japan is ruling Rock right now. So darn creative
Thank you guys for the wonderful reaction video. LOVEBITES have been on hiatus for almost 2 years (marrying/having children etc.) For 12/24/2022 00:00 am Japan Time the first MUSIK VIDEO with a NEW SONG in a long time will be released. Release time in various time zones : Tokyo : December 24, 2022 - 00:00 am Melbourne : December 24, 2022 - 02:00 am New York : December 23, 2022 - 10:00 am Dallas : December 23, 2022 - 9:00 am Los Angeles : December 23, 2022 - 7:00 am London : December 23, 2022 - 3:00 p.m Berlin : December 23, 2022 - 4:00 p.m Kolkata : December 23, 2022 - 8:30 pm Taiwan : December 23, 2022 - 11:00 pm On November 25th, 2022 LOVEBITES announced their 4th album.

Gotta check out Nemophila another girl band from Japan. They're all outstanding musicians. The tune "Life" sort of went viral. It was written to welcome the drummer back from maternity leave. It's premise is about becoming a mother. Not representative of the girls music. They're Metal!
FYI - The drummer wears sneakers (trainers for you British folks) when playing her drum kit. She changes to stilettoes when she comes out for the final bow.
Be carefull, the Japanese female rock/metal bands are a deep rabbithole. Bands like Nemophila, Hanabie and Bandmaid have been already suggested, so some other suggestions: Aldious - Dominator (Radiant A Live) / We are (with Maki Oyama), Fate Gear - Headless Goddess / Megabullets / Live in Blood, Hagane - Super Villan, Whiskey Dust - Poor Women, Bridear - Brave New World Revisited, Doll $ Boxx - Take my Chance, to name a few.
@@niente4 No, I didn't mention them because I was talking about all female bands. Max. t.H. is not an all female band (but agree, they're a good band). But I did forget Mary's Blood.
NEMOPHILA are another Japanese all-female metal band with a twin lead guitar attack and a charismatic vocalist. They play a variety of styles. Start with ADABANA (Flower), their latest video, and work your way back from there. The band will be playing in Sacramento, CA this weekend, at AFTERSHOCK 22.
Haruna, the drummer, walks out in heels but changes to red sneakers once she's sitting behind the kit. What to recommend . . . Since my comment regarding LOVEBITES was only about Haruna, I'm going to recommend another cute Japanese drummer of immense skill. Her name is Junna, and as of this writing, she's on tour supporting Marty Friedman, formerly of Megadeth and Cacophony. The video I'm going to recommend is her cover of "Painkiller" by Judas Priest. You might think, "This guy wants us to watch a drum cover?" but *_trust me_* on this one. Junna is wild. Here's the link. czcams.com/video/b_nXz4uyQVY/video.html
Miyako on your right is also a classically trained pianist. To hear a little of her piano playing try Swan Song with a Chopin intro. czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html
if you want to see more guitar picking listen to the song Sign of Deliverence. That guitar solo is amazing. then again every song of them is amazin.

And well many more. you cant really go wrong with any song.
First contract with J-Rock/Metal ? Just found a rabbit hole that is a mile wide and 10,000 leagues deep. Welcome to LOVEBITES, the vanguard band of heavy metal. 🤘🐺🤘
I enjoyed watching you all be impressed with LOVEBITES. For a bit of eclecticism, "Empty Daydream" has Miyako playing a Rachmaninoff piano excerpt leading to Asami showing some of her R&B/Soul cabaret vocal origins, then, well, not this intense at all, but rockin' for sure! czcams.com/video/lXh_uMM94jU/video.html A more personal melancholy vibe. Great drum dynamics. They favor '80s metal influences, Thrash to ballad, power-metal, fast, hard, but with melodic lyrics of stark-truths to self-empowerment & personal-responsibility. They feature individual guitar solos in every song, harmony duet only lacking in a handful, though harmonized 'rhythm' parts are common (tremolo-picked, palm-muted, arpeggios). btw, drummer Haruna wears red sneakers when playing, changes to 'heels' when joining her bandmates for traditional group bow after encore. Haruna "little BIG Engine" drums (4'9"; 1.45m) Asami "The One & Only Voice" vocals/piano (4'10"; 1.47m) Midori "Crazy Shredder" guitar (4'11"; 1.5m) Miyako "The Golden Touch" guitar/piano (5'2"; 1.58m) Miho "Natural Born Head-Banger" bass (5'1"; 1.55m) nicknames given by the band. All about 30yrs Fans are called Wolf-Pack HEY! I listened to your song "The Betrayer" and enjoyed it. Nice buildup at the end and guitar solo!
Japanese bands really do the double guitars the best, at least soloing wise. X Japan, Versailles, Lovebites etc. One of my favourite bands from the east is worth checking out, Galneryus \,,/
Always pleasure to see ppl meeting Lovebites for the first time! 😁 Cool, wow, unbelievable…! Their playing is flawless - and they don’t play easy stuff. Great reaction!
My Lovebites 🏴 🐺🤘....All Mine! I don't want to share.
Lol
Haaaa mine too I love those ladies they kick it
Miyako the dark haired guitarist is a classically trained pianist since the age of three, picked up guitar at 18 and taught herself to play
welcome to the world of Lovebites the world of beautiful ballads, heavy, power, speed, thrash metal.
In any footage i have seen of Haruna's footwork, she usually is wearing a pair of pink trainers. She puts on heels when the show ends and she comes to the front of the stage. All the ladies are on the small side with Haruna at 4ft 9in.
Thank you. We were wondering about that.
Red/pink sneakers....
Yeah, red sneakers.
The drummer, Haruna is her name, is using red sneakers to play her double bass drums and hi-hat. At the end of the show, she changes to high heels and goes to the front of the stage to throw her drumsticks to fhe audience. And to get the final applause together with her bandmates.
Best band on the planet.
Next live songs Raise some Hell, Set The World On Fire, The Hammer Of Wrath, Scream For Me, Shadow Maker, When Destinies Align, cover song Pain Killer(Judas Priest), all songs in English and with crazy dual guitars solo's

Haruna, drums, wears Red Sneakers. She goes "Full Tilt Boogie" for an entire concert, rumor has it she is nuclear powered.. Midori, ponytail, quit Pharmacy school and began playing the guitar at 20 yo. Miyako, black hair, began piano a 3 yo, at 17/18 yo she decided she wanted to play metal guitar. So she got a guitar and a "How To" book at learned, NO lessons. Asami, vocals, studied ballet until her late teens. At 4' 10" she is bit short for ballet, so she became a singer. Sang primarily R&B and Jazz. She knew nothing about metal until Miho, bass & band founder, chose her for Lovebites.
They have performed at music festivals in Europe and toured with Dragon Force in England prior to covid.
Cool! Thanks for the info.
Welcome to the world of Japanese metal.. This is Lovebites, and you have over 50 more songs to go.. Take a look at set the world on fire, Hammer of wrath and Rising next Do the lives from the Ride for vengeance tour. There are a great many all female Japanese band that will blow you away.. Band maid, Hagane, Aldious, Trident, Gacharic spin.. The list goes on.. Best wishes to you from France..
Nemophila (also all-female J-metal band)
3 dozen Western-Japanese amazing rock covers...
and
2 dozen amazing original songs...starting with "Oiran" (courtesan)
Hanabie, Raise A Suilen, Bridear etc etc
And Nemophilia!!
Nemophila has got to be on your radar. Amazing talent. You know that everyone of these musicians began playing Classical piano at 3. or 4. A tradition in Japan - they don't mess around do they.. Even the girls can shred. Nowadays in America, our youth doesn't q Rock. 1 We go to Japan where thankfully Rock is still a live.
@@user-fq3me9ur7c I hear that William.. Don't listen to much else these days..
Midori (Blond guitarist) plays ESP guitars, Kemper amps and Marshall cabs. Miyako (Brunette guitarist) plays Dean guitars (Has 2 signature models) Peavey (6505+) amps and Orange cabs. Miho (Bassist) plays ESP basses and Darkglass amps and cabs. Haruna (Drummer) uses Pearl drums and Sabian cymbals.🤘🐺🤘
2 signature models? The V and what else?
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu Dean Icon Faded Denim MYK
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu Dean just made a signature of the Icon that Miyako usually plays. It has more of a blue center to the paint scheme. My guess is after Dean lost the lawsuit with Gibson, they needed to replace the V, which they're not allowed to make anymore.
Prepare to be amazed at everything these Metal Goddesses bring !!
what a great background story, are you from japan? my goodness, didn't give you a judgment about the band, but a whole book, and you write neatly about it too. then for all the info, and if you want to give advice, write a nice book 📙 about it, and earn a lot of money with it, these girls are going all over the world one of these days, good luck gr Jan greetings from the Netherlands
@@DIRK-PITT wtf are you ranting about ?
Great react, what's scary...Holy War is child's play for them. You want to be blown away by more in your face metal:
Set The World On Fire live
Break the wall live
Winds of Transylvania live
Thunder Vengeance live 2020
The Awakening / Hammer of Wrath
Raise Some Hell live
You want out of this world MASTERPIECES:
Swan Song with Chopin intro live
A Frozen serenade live
Edge of the World live
Epilogue live
They don't have a single bad song and they have the best lead guitarists in the business, you'll recognize that quickly! Loved the genuine react and the Tux is fitting for the Goddesses in white, they are the best! 🐺🦊
And you do realize the tallest member is 5' 2" and the nuclear drummer is 4' 9". 😀
Amazing she can reach far enough to get the cymbal crashes but she does and verry well. The rest of the band is off the chain as well.
Here for my daily Lovebites fix 🐺
LOVEBITES 🐺 INCREDIBLE
They named the band after the Grammy winning Halestorm song Love Bites(So Do I). Lead singer Asami has joined Lzzy and the boys on stage performing that song.
Midori and Miyako on guitar, Miho on bass(left the band last year), and Haruna on Drums.
If you want to see them use the piano, check out 'Swan Song' with Chopin piano intro.
BTW, Chrissy, the drummer does wear heels.
She walks out in heels but changes to sneakers once she's behind the kit. You can see her red shoes at the end of "Set the World on Fire," plus her drumming shoes are in every pic she tweets out of her drum kit.
If you want to see how the piano is utilized, try "Swan Song" with the Chopin intro. There are others but this one is a masterpiece.
Yep. As others have said, if you want to see Miyako (dark haired guitarist) play the grand piano, have a go at ' Swan Song' live, with the Chopin piano intro. You won't wipe the smiles of your faces for a week.
Love the way you guys do your reactions . So refreshing.
Bloody Lovebites 🐺 I love'em
LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics:
Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood
People live in fear, covered in mud
Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for sisters
There is a thousand, a thousand of evils
Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils
Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for brothers
Shining blade and burning heart
Into the Gates of Hell we march
Immortal soul, let there be light
Into the Eye of Heaven
Eagles at a holy war
Fly higher than the sun
We are one for all and all for one forevermore
Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall
Reincarnation, wait for your call
Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for sisters
Morning star and dying moon
Into the Gates of Hell we march
Mighty soul, let there be hope
Into the Eye of Heaven
Eagles at a holy war
Fly higher than the sun
Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal
What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?
But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
Only have one thing on our mind
Facing the fate, holy war
Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty
We are the metal warriors
Fighting the darkness for brothers
Shining blade and burning heart
Into the Gates of Hell we march
Immortal soul, let there be light
Into the Eye of Heaven
Eagles at a holy war
Fly higher than the sun
We are one for all and all for one forevermore
What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?
But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
Only have one thing on our mind
Facing the fate, holy war

Thank you so much for taking the time to type all that out for us. Wow! Great story.
great reaction folks, please keep on reacting more Lovebites
Thank you! Will do!
🤘🐺 *Midori* 🐺 *Miho* 🐺 *Haruna* 🐺 *Asami* 🐺 *Miyako* 🤘
Personally for me the best reaction videos on CZcams are a bunch of Southerners reacting to talented Japanese metal chicks.
Welcome to the Japanese underworld lol. Where will the Fox hole lead now? Perhaps Babymetal Devine Attack-Shingeki is a good place to start which just dropped 3 days ago & it's a banger!! :b
NEMOPHILA I would suggest next with Dissension.
Then my favorate Band-Maid which is currently on a US tour. Should be tons of fancams out now as they are playing House Of Blues throughout the country.
Played at the historic Apollo Theatre & Aftershock Festival. They are best known for their live performances which Jimmy Page once said of their drummer Akane.
She is like the reincarnation of John Bonham lol. You may also recognize them from the Kate remake on Netflix. Band-Maid is also opening for Guns and Roses in November. They are insane & we haven't even broken the surface here. 🤘🦊💕
welcome to the Wolfpack you have been Lovebitten today
After they watch a few more Lovebites videos.... they will be hooked.
@@TheCyberMantis how could they not be these gals are so amazing
@@evilvolts Truth!
Great reaction, I just discovered this band today, I feel the same way. Incredible
What makes is my favorite band. You should do their song set the world on fire. There's much more other songs that are great. Then you could do nemophila dissension. And my other favorite Japanese band ever those two is band maids freedom live version
Amazing band and cool reaction. It's nice to see people reacting who know what they're talking about :)
Thank you so much. Yes they are truly amazing.
I think a few people have suggested "Swan Song" with Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor) as the intro. That's where you will find out what they do with the piano.
I’m here for Lovebites!❤❤
Gorgeous and talented ladies!
~Pentaholic from Louisiana
Yes they are!
That's how my reactions when I heard them for the first time....and it's the same with every new song I hear from them....I hope you keep listening to them because they deserve it....
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥LOVEBITES🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No.1Power Metal Band🤘
It was worth the price of admission to see your faces. This band has no peer! You ain't seen nothing yet!🤘🏾🤘🏾
welcome to LOVEBITES, they play heavy metal and they play it well, pick a song any song, all good, lyrics are great, yes these ladies are friggin awesome....enjoy 👍👍🤘🤘
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 Lovebites is one of the best bands in our country. We say "Japan is the country obsessed by Rock Music". The history is very long and the obsession started in 1966 when Beatles visited Japan and held 5 concerts at Budokan. Speaking of hard rock / heavy metal music, a number of bands started to come to Japan since as early as 1970s : Led Zeppelin / Grand Funk Railroad (1971), Deep Purple (1972), Queen (1975), Kiss (1977), Cheap Trick / Van Halen / Scorpions (1978), Judas Priest (1978/79) and so on. Now, any type of rock can be enjoyed here, especially by many all-female or women-fronted bands. They are daughters of American / European rock, for sure. (Many are grand-daughters in terms of age.) Uh-oh, we also say "Japan is the country obsessed by Jazz". It had started earlier than rock 😄
That's awesome. Thank you.
There my musical soul mate 🐺
Totally. Perfection.
Fun crew you got there. Thanks for doing this reaction and thanks to Lynn Smith. Welcome to the best new metal band to come along in decades. In their five years of existence as a band, they set a standard that easily puts them on a par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels sent to save us, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. Whatever the description, I think one can say they have given metal a badly needed makeover and maybe a new lease on life. They have themselves said that part of their mission is to save heavy metal from darkness and obscurity. Some background:
They were formed in 2016 from the remnants of a legendary all-girl Japanese metal band called Destrose (yes, all-girl metal has been a thing in Japan since at least 1981). Miho (bass, chief headbanger and soul of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the greatest European bands of the golden age of metal. She recruited her former bandmate Haruna (drums, 4'9" “pocket nuclear reactor”); they needed two world-class guitarists, and so they went and found Midori and Miyako, who were with other bands. The whole group then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she also trained in ballet). Miyako has composed most of their music, with Miho composing a lot of their thrashier songs in collaboration with Mao, the lead composer of another band called Lightbringer. Midori has also been getting into the act, and they regularly perform a song written by Haruna as well. Asami writes most of the lyrics.
They studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance is that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining. They have incorporated some of the best of each of those bands into their arsenal, and have created a sound that is fresh and cutting edge while paying tribute to the old masters.
This is one of their usual first songs for reactors, and rightly so--you get a good sense of the band. They do everything from soulful power ballads to heavy thrash. Almost every song includes face-melting solos by Miyako and Midori. The two guitarists are quite different in style and tone. Midori (blonde ponytail) is the extrovert and speed demon; Miyako is the introvert, with the more soulful feel (though she can also shred like a demon). Midori uses a cleaner tone, Miyako uses more distortion, pinch harmonics and pedal effects. The contrast makes their duets rich and dynamic. It doesn’t hurt that either one can smoke most of the shredders in the classic metal bands. As another reviewer said, "It seems criminal these two are allowed to be in the same band." Here are more clips you should check out:
Their most recently posted live clips, “Set the World on Fire” czcams.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/video.html and “Don’t Bite the Dust” czcams.com/video/oHnKGEj1CMc/video.html, which are both from their recently released concert DVD “Heavy Metal Never Dies”.
"Edge of the World" and "We the United", back to back: czcams.com/video/sl0-U-ykJCU/video.html They form an incredible journey from darkness and despair to light and hope.
Also, “Empty Daydream”, which starts as a ballad and becomes a real rocker: czcams.com/video/lXh_uMM94jU/video.html.
Miyako is also a professional-level concert pianist, and was headed for a career in classical music, before picking up the guitar. If you want to see what she can do on the piano, watch “Swan Song” WITH the prelude, which is Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor). Miyako wrote “Swan Song” using elements from several classical pieces including the Etude. This link should work: czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html.
For a thrasher with heavy Slayer and Metallica vibes, “Break the Wall” czcams.com/video/G021aP2ao6Y/video.html includes two gorgeous and completely contrasting solos by M&M.
For a heart-stopping ballad, “Epilogue” czcams.com/video/1ynnXDfEnnY/video.html (this includes a second song, your choice whether or not to react to both)
Finally, while you will sometimes hear you should only react to live clips, actually their MV’s are epic and worth seeing. Here are four of the most spectacular:
"Shadowmaker" czcams.com/video/Brmoln5Gxus/video.html This is the song that blew up and melted faces all over the world
"When Destinies Align" czcams.com/video/hLFelI93VkM/video.html
"Glory to the World" czcams.com/video/-wJtD2XEXH4/video.html
"Winds of Transylvania" czcams.com/video/HsE4Ub_Pjh8/video.html.
You'll get lots of suggestions, just one thing: don't bother with Bloodstock footage, the sound quality is poor. Best to take suggestions with actual links. Also, you can’t go wrong with any of their official clips. Welcome to the Wolf-Pack!
I'm glad they picked Lovebites to react to as they are one off the best band on the planet now. Hope they get a new bass player soon.
@@lynsmith1096 thanks for getting the word out, and yes, they are so great it would be crazy for them not to continue!

😎🤟🐺
Really good genuine reaction. Lovebites is incredible! And always better live.. more suggestions are Thunder Vengeance, Set The World On Fire, and Swan Song (with Chopin piano intro).. 🎶🔥
Great suggestion!
They've become my favorite band. Right there with Nightwish, or even eclipsed them slightly (though I still love Floor and Nightwish). I think Lovebites is the greatest heavy metal band to come along in decades and Midori and Miyako are among the best guitar duos ever to play together. Haruna is unreal on the drums. Miho will be missed for sure, but they added Fami recently. If you come back to them I recommend Thunder Vengeance live from Zepp, or any from the post from TheCyberMantis. Live is best!
Well done on finding Lovebites... arguably the best metal band of the last decade and, in the opinion of their fanatically loyal fans, one of the best of all time. If you'd like to hear a good song by them, my suggestion is that you write down every song they ever wrote on a piece of paper, close your eyes and stick a pin in it. They're ALL good songs ranging from absolute bangers to metal masterpieces. As to a couple of your questions; Haruna, the drummer, plays famously in a pair of red pumps but is always careful to change into her heels before coming out from behind her kit to acknowledge the crowd. She needs all the height boost her heels can give her since she's only 4' 9" in her stocking feet! The other elephant in the room is the grand piano (actually it's an electric Roland piano dressed up to look like a concert grand). That beast is the baby of the dark haired guitarist on the Dean guitar. Her name is Miyako and she is the (slightly) mad genius at the heart of the band; the main composer and a concert standard classical pianist as well as a world class guitarist. If you want to hear her cut loose on that beauty here's a song you'll appreciate. It's called Swan Song and it's a bone fida Lovebites masterpiece;
czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html
Have fun. This band is the real deal.
They are the real deal !! They won the 2018 Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award for Best New Band!! The Metal Goddesses won’t disappoint!! Please, continue your journey, to fully appreciate the talent of these women! They are truly AMAZING 🤘🐺🤘!
Awesome reaction!! Thank you for checking out Lovebites!! They play many styles, from beautiful ballads to brutal thrash or speed metal!!
The grand piano is played by one of the guitarists, Miyako!! Please check out more Lovebites, they are amazing!! 🤘🐺🤘Any song really, you can't go wrong!!
Thank you so much.
Thanks for reaction 🙏🙏 LOVEBITES !!🤘🤘🔥🔥 THE BEST
Our pleasure!
Who's playin' piano? Hold your jaw and buckle up your seatbelt, and take this trip Swan Song with Revolutionary Etude czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html. You'll know who's on the piano. The drummer, 4'9" tall "Big Engine" wears a pair of sneakers while she is playing, and the other members wear high heels.
Loved how the guy in the middle felt miyakos solo 🤘 cool reaction!
The piano is played by the guitarist on stage left, Miyako and sometimes by Asami, the lead vocalist.
Great reaction. Musicians understand good music better. Wolfpack 🤘
Thank you! Great reaction!
Continue with LOVEBITES, it's the best heavy metal band today!
I recommend this song for the next:
Set the World on fire
czcams.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/video.html
Asami❤️👑
Long Live LOVEBITES!🐺🤘
Miho💜 Thank You 💜
Thanks for reacting to amazing Lovebites and spreading the word; they deserve more recognition Well, it seems you’ve just been lovebitten, too. Welcomed to the mind-blowing world of Lovebites. These women are extremely talented, skillful and versatile exceptional musicians. They really shine in their live performances. Their main influences are Iron Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, Helloween, Angra, Judas Priest, Dragonforce, and even Gary Moore, but they have been developing their unique style. Miyako is also a concert-level classical pianist. Asami used to sing R&B, soul and jazz before she joined Lovebites. Those twin lead guitar solos by Midori and Miyako are already legendary, in just six years.
Currently the band is in the process to announce the new bassist. In an interview, Miho (ex bassist) said that they wanted to play as heavy as men but keeping their femininity. My next suggestions are “Break the wall”, “The Awakening/Hammer of wrath”, “Set the world on fire”, “Shadowmaker”, “Raise some hell”, “Scream for me”, “When destinies align”, “The crusade”, “Frozen serenade”, “Spellbound”, “Don’t bite the dust”, “Winds of Transylvania”, “Edge of the world”, “Epilogue”. For piano: “Swan song”, “Empty daydream” (all live).
Lineup:
Haruna - Drums
Miho - Ex Bass, backing vocals
Midori - Lead & rhythm guitar, backing vocals
Miyako - Lead & rhythm guitar, keyboards, classical piano, backing vocals
Asami - Lead vocals, some piano
When playing drums, Haruna wears red sneakers.
Great to see you really enjoy your first exposure to Lovebites. BTW they have a connection to Nightwish in that they have studio and live concerts mixed and mastered by Mikko Karmila and Mika Jussila at Finnvox.
Love the guy in the shades. Basically telling the others to STFU and start the video again when they stopped the video and started blabbering 😂 You guys are great. Looks like great friends that have known each for a long time.
You 4 are a cool flat share. I'll start something like this in a few years. It looks like it's going to be very, very "gemütlich" in your cabin. Thanks for this good reaction video.

What a powerhouse group! Thank you for your suggestions. All of them will go in the hat.
I love what you guys are doing with the Nightwish reactions! Now you are getting introduced to the other amazing pole of the the rock and metal renaissance - Japan! There is a lot of amazing music coming out of Japan right now, and it's an unexpected but amazing feature of the culture that some of the best rock and metal groups are all female bands. BAND-MAID is another Japanese band that is a must see. Try "Freedom" official live or "Domination" official live, or "Dice" official music video. Thanks so much and God bless! ☺
Thank you and God bless.
metal never dies
when it comes to metal these japanese ladies are top notch, now if you want to step down a notch to hard rock, there is also a 5 piece all ladies band from japan called band maid, and when it comes to rock they are top shelf, i recommend you listen to them live, i would suggest "Domination" Live, like i said when it comes to rock and metal this is who i listen to now
Band Maid. What a great name for them. We'll check them out.
Another phenomenal Japanese female band is Band Maid. They're Jimmy Pages favorite band. He loves the drummer. Again, another Japanese band the Rocks hard! The tune "No God" is really good. Listen to Misa's bass lines. Talent on loan from God. Japan still Rocks!
Lovebites surpassed all other videos on this channel in views. However, these people don't do a 2nd reaction video of Lovebites or other top bands like Band Maid and Nemophila. This ignorance is the problem for all fans of all Japanese female metal bands. I will never understand, it's sad.😢
Guys it’s funny the women in Japan shred and the guys are doing k-pop🤣. Definitely check out Band Maid and Neophilia. Great rock bands in Japan. ❤
I’m actually moving to Tokyo so I’ll definitely dive into the underground rock scene and post some vids. I’ll let you know if I come across any interesting groups. By the way check out XJapan.
We will. Thank you and we hope your move goes smoothly.
Lol! This was you're first bite! 👌🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🐺❣🙏
Yes it was! Thanks Patrik.
Swan Song, live ZeppDiver City Tokyo 2020. Piano, Miyako playing.
One of the newest J Rock/Metal scene is Iron Bunny;. They're getting high regards from some heavy weight LA Rocker's. Amazing talent, a little shocking at first. World. Class musicians, killer vocals. Japan is ruling Rock right now. So darn creative

Gotta check out Nemophila another girl band from Japan. They're all outstanding musicians. The tune "Life" sort of went viral. It was written to welcome the drummer back from maternity leave. It's premise is about becoming a mother. Not representative of the girls music. They're Metal!
FYI - The drummer wears sneakers (trainers for you British folks) when playing her drum kit. She changes to stilettoes when she comes out for the final bow.
🤘🐺🤘
Be carefull, the Japanese female rock/metal bands are a deep rabbithole. Bands like Nemophila, Hanabie and Bandmaid have been already suggested, so some other suggestions: Aldious - Dominator (Radiant A Live) / We are (with Maki Oyama), Fate Gear - Headless Goddess / Megabullets / Live in Blood, Hagane - Super Villan, Whiskey Dust - Poor Women, Bridear - Brave New World Revisited, Doll $ Boxx - Take my Chance, to name a few.
Cool! Thank you for that.
You forgot MAXIMUM THE HORMONE!
@@niente4 No, I didn't mention them because I was talking about all female bands. Max. t.H. is not an all female band (but agree, they're a good band).
But I did forget Mary's Blood.
NEMOPHILA are another Japanese all-female metal band with a twin lead guitar attack and a charismatic vocalist. They play a variety of styles. Start with ADABANA (Flower), their latest video, and work your way back from there. The band will be playing in Sacramento, CA this weekend, at AFTERSHOCK 22.
Haruna, the drummer, walks out in heels but changes to red sneakers once she's sitting behind the kit.
What to recommend . . .
Since my comment regarding LOVEBITES was only about Haruna, I'm going to recommend another cute Japanese drummer of immense skill. Her name is Junna, and as of this writing, she's on tour supporting Marty Friedman, formerly of Megadeth and Cacophony. The video I'm going to recommend is her cover of "Painkiller" by Judas Priest. You might think, "This guy wants us to watch a drum cover?" but *_trust me_* on this one. Junna is wild. Here's the link.

We watched it and wow! You are so right. Rock on!
What's even more impressive is that, they play more than one instrument 👍
These girls are something, aren't they? 😊
What a talented maidens, they played so effortlessly. Awesome
Haruna, the drummer, wears always two very beautiful red sneakers xD
I don't know how you will react to knowing that this is one of their simplest songs. Please check more stuff from Lovebites. Great reaction
Thanks for the warning. we can't wait to hear more. This band just plain gives us the fizz.
Midori and Miyako will make other male guitarists cry in shame, haha.
Miyako on your right is also a classically trained pianist. To hear a little of her piano playing try Swan Song with a Chopin intro. czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html
'Swan Song' is a very difficult piece to perform. Her left hand is made of steel. She's an 😇
if you want to see more guitar picking listen to the song Sign of Deliverence. That guitar solo is amazing. then again every song of them is amazin.
Epiloge/Winds Of Transylvania/Frozen Serenade/Rising/Scream for me/Shadowmaker/Set The World On Fire/Swan song (With Chopin intro Myiako the black haired guitarists is a classical trained pianist). And well many more. you cant really go wrong with any song.
First contract with J-Rock/Metal ? Just found a rabbit hole that is a mile wide and 10,000 leagues deep. Welcome to LOVEBITES, the vanguard band of heavy metal. 🤘🐺🤘
Rock on!
I love this kind of reaction🤘🏻
Keep it up guys!
Have a great day! 👍🏻
Thanks! You too!
they are no doubt the best metal band in the world!!!!!!!!
Souls, check out Nemophila: "Dissension.". These girls kick butt. Great song writing, musicians are killer!
I enjoyed watching you all be impressed with LOVEBITES. For a bit of eclecticism, "Empty Daydream" has Miyako playing a Rachmaninoff piano excerpt leading to Asami showing some of her R&B/Soul cabaret vocal origins, then, well, not this intense at all, but rockin' for sure!

A more personal melancholy vibe. Great drum dynamics. They favor '80s metal influences,
Thrash to ballad, power-metal, fast, hard, but with melodic lyrics of stark-truths to self-empowerment & personal-responsibility.
They feature individual guitar solos in every song, harmony duet only lacking in a handful, though harmonized 'rhythm' parts are common (tremolo-picked, palm-muted, arpeggios).
btw, drummer Haruna wears red sneakers when playing, changes to 'heels' when joining her bandmates for traditional group bow after encore.
Haruna "little BIG Engine" drums (4'9"; 1.45m)
Asami "The One & Only Voice" vocals/piano (4'10"; 1.47m)
Midori "Crazy Shredder" guitar (4'11"; 1.5m)
Miyako "The Golden Touch" guitar/piano (5'2"; 1.58m)
Miho "Natural Born Head-Banger" bass (5'1"; 1.55m)
nicknames given by the band. All about 30yrs
Fans are called Wolf-Pack
HEY! I listened to your song "The Betrayer" and enjoyed it. Nice buildup at the end and guitar solo!
私はLOVEBITESの大ファンです。取り上げてくださってありがとうございます。
いまや日本は、TENNNOU、OHTANI、LOVEBITESです。
Awesome reaction !
Try "Swan Song" with the Chopin intro from (Five of a Kind, 21/02/2020) or "A Frozen Serenade" (Live in Tokyo, 2021)
Japanese bands really do the double guitars the best, at least soloing wise. X Japan, Versailles, Lovebites etc. One of my favourite bands from the east is worth checking out, Galneryus \,,/
Always pleasure to see ppl meeting Lovebites for the first time! 😁 Cool, wow, unbelievable…! Their playing is flawless - and they don’t play easy stuff. Great reaction!
yes, welcome, thanks for real reaction
Thank you too!
