In my opinion, this version is just as good as the original.
Yes
Hands-down best "Painkiller" cover.
Best Painkiller cover! 🎸🔥🎸🤘
How can any hard rock/metal head not love this.....great cover from the ladies!! Thanks for the reaction, guys!
Ah yes, the first Ladies of Thrash hoist high their metal prowess for all to see. Paying homage to the great Rob Halford and Judas Priest while doing the song justice in their own right. I never would have believed that my favorite thrash metal band would be five little women from Japan, but here we are. Long Live the Queens of metal, Lovebites!
If someone is asking you: "What Heavy Metal is?", the answer must be: Painkiller! I can not believe that there is a metalhead on this planet never listened Painkiller, Chris... Thanks for reaction, Lovebites rules!!!🐺🐺🐺🤘🤘🤘
Without doubt the absolute best cover ever made of this song. SMASHED IT on all fronts. Asami sounds vicious here... perfect! And the drumming - outstanding. But Midori and Miyako went to town here and nailed it - including the correct effects on all the guitar parts. Insanely good! 🎸🤘🐺
Lovebites shows that there is nothing they can't do. A brilliant performance and Asami impressed me, no one can sing like Halford, but she did a terrific job and M&M were like you would think it was really Tipton and Downing playing. Haruna the big little beast on drums! Awesome!🤘🐺🥁🎸🎸🎸🎤🔥💥
Simply, brutally nail it.. hail to Lovebites 👍🤘. Thanks guys 👍👍
Their cover is best. 😀
Sam is back in his teens.
Yes, this cover by amazing Lovebites is just outstanding. Judas Priest is one of their main influences.
LOVEBITES introduced me to this song. They nailed it. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Never seen Sam smile so much as he is on this song! Brilliance!
Thanks for your reaction. LOVEBITES has two original songs that I would put next to 'Painkiller' JUDAS PRIEST. These are 'Dystopia Symphony' and 'Soldier Stands Solitarily'. Unfortunately, there is no video of LOVEBITES being performed by 'Painkiller' in concert or in the studio.
I agree with your two picks, and I think the direction she took her voice here with Painkiller, is kind of reminiscent of the direction she took with Dissonance, and fits well with the style of music. In my opinion, it is part of what makes Dissonance work so well; the special touch Asami adds to it. It feels like it goes with the song; like it doesn’t feel out of place. I think Dissonance and Judgement Day are both incredibly good songs, and would put all four of these songs (SSS, Dystopia, Dissonance, JD), in my top four for the band as a whole.
@@SomethingToDo360 'Dystopia Symphony' is one of my favorite songs. As for the 'Judgement Day' Album, my favorite songs are: 'We are the Resurrection', 'Lost in the Garden', 'Wicked Witch' and 'Soldier Stands Solitarily'. 'Dissonance' is a great song!
@@GrayFox14 I’m thinking you would have to really like a song a lot, in order to pick one as a favorite that Mao had some involvement in, like We Are The Resurrection. I say this because my impression has been, that it would lose some points for just having his name there, or that you have some bias against him, and that it influences what you determine is good or not. I could be wrong, but that’s been my impression. Personally, I grade all the songs before seeing who wrote what, so it doesn’t influence me.
@@SomethingToDo360 It doesn't matter to me who wrote the song. For me it is important whether I like this song or not. To date, 'We are the Resurrection' is my #1 favorite song on the 'Judgement Day' Album. The remaining three songs that I named are the result of the creativity of Asami (lyrics) and Miyako (music). Mao helped write 'We are the Resurrection'. Thanks to Mao for helping Midori and Asami write a good song.
priest best song and the ladies slayed it!!!!!!!!!!!!
19.6.2024 Milano, I cann´t wait for seeing them live.
Also me!
We'll meet there.
fantastic cover!!! reaction says it all! so much fun. thank you, guys. they can be so brutal and badass, if they want to. for me this is as good as the original.
ラブバイツはハロウィンの曲もカバーしていましたよ！😁
Leave it to Lovebites to take it to another level!❤🤘🏼My favorite cocktail is a Pusser’s Rum Painkiller and this song is one of my favorite Judas Priest songs!
they do a great job, but honestly I feel Asami's range is a betteranalog for Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) than Rob Halford's. You can hear she is right on the edge here, and as Sam mentioned, is not as high as Rob. She has a bit huskier/lower range which is one of the few that could do Bruce's baritone justice though, IMO. I would kill to see them do Hallowed be thy Name or something similar.
Rob Halford has an insane vocals. But, if you heard this rendition and had never heard Rob? Would you have had any complaints? Any complaints at all? BTW - Rob also goes lower in Painkiller.
@@rolandkarlsson7072 Did I make a complaint? I made an observation. And I don{t care about how it might sound if I had not head Rob. Because I have. And as such can make observations and comparisons. Yes. Rob spends a fair bit of this, and most songs in lower registers. Be also hits higher notes than Asami in it.
I have the Judas Priest version on my Spotify list. It came on and at first, I thought I put the Lovebites version on. That was until the vocals started. Lovebites did awesome in doing this cover of Painkiller.

Each of your reactions is marked with a star (*).
They won Best New Band from Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award in the same year Judas Priest won Best British Band.. Best Live Band - Lacuna Coil... Best International Band - Arch Enemy.. Golden Gods - Ozzy Osburn...
And then those awards were never awarded again
My favorite cover of this song is Junna’s drum cover because she’s so high energy, but LB does a great job here. That said, I knew going in that Haruna, Miho, Midori, and Miyako would kill this, but I was uncertain about Asami. She sounds good here, almost like a female Mike Patton.
Great track. There is a live version of this but with Rob Halford and BabyMetal. Pretty cool there.
When is Sam due in hospital to have the smile surgically removed from his face.
CAUTION . Someday a group of lovely women will cover your song and retire you. 😅😅😅😅
Saw there was a reaction to the Babymetal version dropped this morning, and I had to come watch this one first, as I haven't caught up to the latest reactions yet. My opinion? The Judas Priest version is like a prime rib eye steak prepared by Gordon Ramsey himself. The Lovebites version is the same steak, but prepared by Salt Bae. Prepared with a "flair" and some showmanship but not quite as exceptional as the Gordon Ramsey. 😊
The metal “National Anthem”. Until not long before the ladies covered this I had never heard it…but so many people referenced the song when talking about LOVEBITES that I had to give it a listen. For me LOVEBITES are the best band in music history and of 56 original songs recorded there is absolutely no padding. No “album filler”. So it with the greatest of respect that I humbly accept that even the Goddesses haven’t (quite) matched Painkiller. It is THE quintessential metal song, and they proved that in another dimension, they would have written this song!
Wolfpack here.
How
Has
He
Never
Heard
Painkiller??🤔🤕🤒🤨😢😳
Next time someone says rock and metal isn't what it used to be or isn't as good as it used to be my reply is going to be oh yes it is they just moved to Mexico and Japan lol🤟
When they first started they did Judas Priest Painkiller and Overkill by Motorthead and Eagles Fly Free by Helloween unfortunately Judas Priest and Motorhead covers have no videos just Painkiller and Eagles Fly Free are the only ones recorded.🙂🤘🐺
Not entirely true. LOVEBITES has recorded “Love Bites (So Do I)” by Halestorm. It’s a live recording on “Invitation to the Theater,” and can be found on my channel. There’s no video, so I made a slideshow.
@@PaleHorseShabuShabuYes i forgot about that. Thanks
❤❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🐺 Judas who ? lol
🤘🤘🤘🐺🐺🐺
You never heard the original?! Thats insane.
Just dont underestimate what our little big engine (Haruna, drummer) can do hehe
🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤🐺❤️🔥🇯🇵🇮🇹
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Here's Babymetal covering Painkiller and Breaking The Law ,no choreography just Su having fun being the front woman 🦊🤘
maybe the guitars/amps are just more powerful these days but i think this is much better than JP version...sorry!
Great reaction. But honestly, I just will never understand any reactor who is reacting to a cover that won't take the time to listen to the original first. You just will not truly understand the greatness (or not) of a cover if you don't listen to the original at least once. And, the one who heard the song should 100% control the board/pauses 😁.
Well, now you need to checkout Su doing Painkiller and Breaking the Law with Chad from Red Hot Chili Peppers on the drum... the singing might not be as good as Lovebites version, but watch to the end and you get a very touching moment. Sadly its mostly fancams for that. 😁😁😁🤘🦊🤘
BABYMETAL covered this song along with Breaking The Law with Rob Halford and without Halford. The version without Halford featured Chad Smith on drums,you should give those videos a watch
I second the Chad Smith video. That one’s great.
@@PaleHorseShabuShabui love the birthday surprise part
Watch JUNNA do drum cover of this songs..... 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Hey guys new sub here maybe if you wanna go to a rabbit hole try reacting to Tool. Maybe forty six and two is a good start.
You knew MIDORI And MIYAKO would nail it, two of the best out there right now! ASAMI's vocals are so perfect for LOVEBITES! But they fall a little short to me here. Not bad by any means, just the only weak part in the cover. But hey it is JUDAS PRIEST 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I saw Priest right after Painkiller came out and then some years later and Halford couldn't pull this song off either time. I really believe this song is a one time piece of studio magic.
You should do a reaction too the original. There is also a video with baby metal and Rob Halford singing together.
This one easily better than Angra's cover🤘✨
I have to say that (as a Judas Priest fan from back in the 70's) Lovebites did an outstanding job with the instrumentation on this cover. Personally, I've never been a fan of the vocals for Lovebites, and it misses for me. I'm much more partial to Band-Maid/Babymetal/Nemophila for female vocal styles...but even Su-Metal can't compete with Rob Halfords vocals. That doesn't mean any of those ladies aren't talented, just not to my personal tastes when it comes to covering Judas Priest, but the hands down best instrumental cover I've heard.
Asami changes her voice here a bit for Painkiller, and I think it fits much better with the style of music, and she does this as well for Dissonance too, and it just seems to work. Considering Dissonance, the voice direction may be the way they take thrash metal in the future. I noticed a lot of people have issues with the vocals of Band-Maid too, but seemingly not as much for BabyMetal and Nemophila. Obviously though, the instrumental aspects of Lovebites are incredibly good, so it’s kind of nuts that they were able to pick up Fami as well; she’s an incredible bassist. I think the future looks bright for Lovebites.
Mam rad kapelu Lovebites, ale ani náhodou , hlas je uplne niekde inde, nemam rad tieto covery aj gitarovo to nie je ono celkovo sa mi to nepaci dievcata nedorastli do tejto ligy a to je minimalne 30 rokov.😮 Zle, cele zle😢
Ladies are in their own super league😎
