I swear every band member was pushed right to the very extreme limit of their abilities on this one, and maybe slightly beyond. Haruna's drumming was so freaking fast, hard, and relentless. Just mind blowing pounding on the drums in rapid fire. Fami had a brilliant bass solo added to it, as did Haruna. Asami's vocals were some of her best metal vocals, really high notes belted and screamed out over and over on the verses and chorus. And Midori and Miyako, what can I say, were you even able to tell who was playing which part? The mind blowing speed and precision which went on for over 2 minutes yet didn't feel long at all. It is absolutely their most powerful and impressive song for me. It went straight to number one for me.
This album definitely delivered on their statement that the hiatus and change of members didn't stop their pursuit of perfection or their desire to play heavy metal. It was the perfect way for them to come back.
This album is monumental. Personally, my favourite of theirs. The more you listen to it, it gets better. I am sure you will pick out more amazing guitar work with repeated listens. There's been some really great metal releases of all genres this year, but for me this is the best album and its not gonna change. Thank you for your reactions and support of Lovebites.
My fav track on the album, edging pretty close to my all-time fav Lovebites song. It's got everything - speed, a bit of thrash, a bit of prog, and at some parts of the chorus, Asami went pretty much full soprano on us. A Miyako masterpiece.
Yaaay, I’ve been looking forward to seeing you react to this. It’s fucking unbelievable. The album as a whole is as close to perfect as humanly possible. Miyako wrote this at the same time as the Glory to the World EP. She wanted it to open the JD album but was outvoted. So she rewrote parts, I imagine, to make it more suitable for a final track. You listen to “Dissonance” and think “wow, that’s relentless”, then they tap you on the shoulder and say “er, we haven’t quite finished!” I’m looking forward to hearing it live too…literally, in Osaka …🙂🐺
Couldn't help noticing the 🎸 behind you bopping to the rhythm in sync with you lol, guitar got good taste, hope they'll get back over to England soon, we're all waiting.🎸🐺🎵🥁🎤🎹🇬🇧🤘
I love all the songs of the Lovebitese also the new album is great but this song is my favorite from the first moment I heard it, Haruna at the speed of light, Miyako (he composed this song) Midori and Fami stratospheric and Asami incredible, Lovebites the Best for me🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤🐺❤
F yeah, that's what I was waiting for!! 🙂 I mean you want to talk about ending an EPIC comeback album...they put it into hyperdrive with SSS. Miyako, the musical genius, if you watch the live stream version of this you'll see she's locked in at the beginning with Haruna's drum hits. She's so locked in on this song, it is great to observe. Haruna's drum work and Asami's soaring vocals in unison are worth the price of admission alone, never mind the "out of this world solos" by M&M, and Fami's bassline. Looking forward already to the next album and hopefully a 2024 US Tour!! Great react 2 GEN! 🤘
Wat a banger, these women are a must see live, even if I will probably have to mortgage the house as I live at the bottom of the world, keep up your great reactions to these amazing women, the more everyone sees of them the better, so love this song. Lots of love from NZ
I'm excited to imagine LOVEBITES performing this song live. But here a question arises. "What number in the concert will this song be played?" It's too heavy to play at the beginning of a live show, and it's going to be difficult to choose the next song. Do you want to take a break at this point? . So will you play at the end to decorate the climax of the live? However, it can be physically challenging to play this song after depleting a lot of energy. Hmmm... It's a trivial matter, but I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night because I'm worried. ---------- from Nippon *It is a sentence using Google translation.

yesss.i was waiting for your reaction to this song. this great song is my fave song on this banger album. Music : Miyako, lyrics Asami. what a way to end this masterpiece album. glory to lovebites
Welcome back and thank you for doing this reaction to lovebites again, this is my favourite song from this album, haruna do scared me with her kick bass drum 😅, every member so great 👍, LOVEBITES ROCK
Fantastic album by Lovebites and their 'ghost writer' Mao Yamamoto. He wrote/co-wrote 6 out of the 10 songs. Soldier Stands Solitarily ( I think Solitary Soldier would have been a better name, but that is just my opinion) was originally written for Glory, Glory, to the World but did not make the final cut. Miyako said she felt the melody, particularly the chorus, was too good to reject completely. So she rearranged it for this album, and said it came out 100 times better.
Mao is not a "ghost writer", in that he's officially listed for his inputs into their music and arrangement, with Asami receiving all credits for the lyrics, and the full band of course fully involved in all their arrangment.

This is my favorite on the album. Glad you got to this one. The entire album is great.
凄まじい歌唱力です。
日本の女性METALボーカルの中でも間違い無しトップですね。
バンドも当然神レバルだ😂

I knew you'd love it! 😄 My favorite parts are the mini-rampages at 1:47 to 1:52 (on this video) and other places.
I more than loved it lol 😆 beast of a song
Oh! How Haruna hard working!!!
Crazy fast.. brutally played but in good melody.. brilliant.
Welcome back and thank you for doing this reaction to lovebites again, this is my favourite song from this album, haruna do scared me with her kick bass drum 😅, every member so great 👍, LOVEBITES ROCK
Yes its my fave too although there all my faves 😆 but this track just has the edge over the others ,cannot wait to see it live
Miyako's masterpiece!
Fastest track from Lovebites. Haruna got a speed ticket.

Q: What is your favourite Lovebites song?
A: The last one I listened to.
😃🤟 good answer
And now you've heard the album you can say it, they're your favourite band. Don't be shy now 😂
All jokes aside... epic, EPIC masterclass 🤘
Pure Extrem Power Metal ❤
this song would be epic if it is played as an encore in the big metal festival such as wacken, download, bloodstock, etc, I can't imagine
The best album of 2023 is Judgement Day or The Only One？
Midori and Miyako has 6 fingers en each hand...it's not fair...come on man...
and Fami has seven, imagine doing flow like this in bass…i think playing bass is even harder than guitar playing✌🏽
haruna also has 3 legs and 3 arms
This album is really mesmerizing. Some people say that Lovebites is back with a vengeance.
They are so freaking fast!!!!
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🤘
Saved the best until last.
That what they doing is a beyond of imagination of others
if you like speed metal I know nothing better
Nothing better indeed
