Welcome to Lovebites. Haruna is an exceptional drummer. Dissonance or A Frozen Serenade should be next.
Dissonance is a thrash metal lovers dream & A Frozen Serenade is a masterpiece ❤️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘
Haruna is truly a cymbal master. Never heard anyone else use them so much and especially the smallest ones and bells. You really hear those penetrating the heavy sound. And her stamina is insane. She does this whole concerts
Gene Hoglan, on the DEATH albums: "Individual Thought Patterns" and "Symbolic".
Haruna even uses a cowbell which is fairly rare in rock/metal.
Absolutely true.
I really feel Haruna uses her cymbals so creatively. It’s refreshing!
Every Lovebites song has Haruna the drummer just going nuts and using every note a cymbal can and might produces. Her foot work is some of the most lively and spot on Power Percussion you could ever hope too find. Lovebites is a One of A Kind band. Every instrument is Professor level in both regards too theory as well as performance. They have over 55 songs of complete Mental Drums,guitar,piano,bass and vocals. I cannot tell a lie. Wolfpack!
LOVEBITES - Judgement Day lyrics:
Never live, never die, never end, nowhere to go
Every night, everywhere, everything arriving in darkness
What is right, what is wrong, what is sin, who's to decide?
Hide and seek, truth or dare, playing tag, chased by the Evil
Another back and forth of gaining and losing
Running out of my time, each tick of the clock's taking down
piece of my life again
Who's allied, who's against, who's to pay, I'll wait it out
Up and down, in and out, left or right, answers are nowhere
What do you see in this world full of insanity?
When do we come to ask what's awaiting us, don't look away!
This is the truth
RISE! THIS IS JUDGEMENT DAY! LIFE, GIVEN THE FOREVERNESS
RISE! THIS IS JUDGEMENT DAY!
LIFE, LIVING EVERY STORY
Travelling in the past, find salvation
Now with the great will, the path lay in front of me
Starting here, this is the day!
SOLO: midori / miyako /midori /miyako / both
Never live, never die, never end, nowhere to go
Every night, everywhere, everything arriving in darkness
What do you see in this world full of insanity?
When do we come to ask what's awaiting us, don't look away!
This is the truth!
RISE! THIS IS JUDGEMENT DAY! LIFE, GIVEN THE FOREVERNESS
RISE! THIS IS JUDGEMENT DAY!
LIFE, LIVING EVERY STORY
Travelling in the past, find salvation
Now with the great will, the path lay in front of me
Starting here, this is the day!
Judgement day!
Judgement day!
Judgement day!
Judgement day!

Welcome to the best band on the planet ... period.
By the way, Haruna the drummer played double kick for 2 hours in the last gig, she's a machine.
Haruna is a tiny person, but a VERY, VERY skilled drummer. She plays her kit like an actual instrument, rather than just keep time for her bandmates.
This band is insane dude, keep digging it up you wont regret it
JUDGEMENT DAY is their latest video and the first song to be released from their upcoming album, and the first song with new bassist FAMI. HOLY WAR live is an amazing performance. Do watch it next. And then watch LOVEBITES play Thrash with the live performances of BREAK THE WALL, RAISE SOME HELL, and SET THE WORLD ON FIRE.
Greg, did you know there are 2 other new songs published from Judgement day?
Haruna, the drummer, is called the "little big engine" and now you know why.
The star shaped cymbals are her trademarks.
Try the "live in Tokyo" videos, because LOVEBITES is a great live band.
About the drumer (Haruna) She does it for 2 hours during live performances, That is stamina
I can barely go upstairs without feeling it 🤣
I watched their 2021 concert in Tokyo last night and it was 2 hours, in saying that the 2020 concert is 1 hour 45. I have seen many drummers live in my time from Cozy Powell, to Neil Peart, from Mike Portnoy to Haruna and Haruna just blows me away. I have put her amongst the greats in my mind. However there is one other who rivals Haruna and it is another Japanese woman Senri Kawaguchi, even mentioning her name has me drooling 😎🤟
Senri is brilliant, I've had her on my radar for years. The pure control she has alone feels like a cheat code haha
@@noelle3551 And Haruna never breaks sweat.
@@CatharsisYT here czcams.com/video/ViyZ49RsNfk/video.html amazing senri is playing with tamu murata, another female master on drums and currently in the band Nemophila. also totally worth a checkout. for a drummer I would suggest their cover of X Japans "Kurenai". you won´t be dissappointed.
Congratulations. You’ve hit the jackpot. This band has a catalogue which on Wednesday will top out at 60 tracks.
Every. Single. One…. Is to that standard. Seriously. No album filler.
You can react to every single one and tell me otherwise. I’m 63 and I don’t give such praise lightly. Best band ever.
Like myself Alek we have been around and seen the best metal has to offer since the 70s ( 61 by the way) and Lovebites are the epitome of the 80s in fact I would go as far to say they are the holy grail of that era and the sound I have been looking for almost 40 years 😎🤟
@@noelle3551 I have been around awhile too. I went from: Maiden, Ozzy, Priest, early Metallica, Helloween, Annihilator, Megadeth, King Diamond, Rush, to early Nightwish, Symphony X, Lost Horizon, Dream Theater, Lemur Voice, Death, Stratovarius, Rhapsody, Conception, Angra, to LOVEBITES. Now it's all LOVEBITES.
Echo these sentiments. LOVEBITES is the finest of vintages when it comes to heavy metal...there is just none better. 🤘🐺🤘
@TheCyberMantis I am mostly a progressive rock person, Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, Marillion and Dream theater, though I grew up with the beatles, Queen, Santana and Black Sabbath before the 80's. Groups like Saxon, Iron Maiden, Preying Mantis, WASP and Metallica then grabbed my attention in the 80s and thereafter Dream theater, Lacuna coil, Slot and Seo Taiji took over. As for Lovebites you are witnessing an unexpected revival of an era we thought that had been lost. It is an era we grew up in, it is an era of metal that was at its peak. Like yourself we have seen the rise of punk, hard rock, metal, power metal and thrash many of whom here did not witness and then Lovebites arrive and transports us back to our youth when we discovered our passion for this music!! Keep on rocking my friend 😎🤟
@@noelle3551 What you said is certainly true. Which makes me wonder, who will be in the audience at Lovebites shows when they tour the USA? Maybe 80% guys in their 50's and 60's! Gen-X seems to be their target audience.
Haruna is really special, my favorite drummer today!
You will be very impressed, Lovebites musicianship is another level. 🤘
Lovebites forever! ⚡
This should be the first song for new reactors now. It's been "Holy War" live as the biggest beginning reaction video, but this one sets the bar high.
Haruna is an amazing drummer, utilizing every piece of her kit. She plays at breakneck speed, never stopping, and I mean throughout an entire concert. Fami is the new bassist who replace Miho, the previous bassist and co-founder. Once you get to earlier catalog stuff you will note the difference in playing styles between the two. Asami's vocals on this song are powerful and forward. Miyako (black haired guitarist) and Midori (blonde haired guitarist) are in my opinion the best dual leads going today, if not ever.
Well you just experienced the best all female band that Japan has to offer. When you discover how the all female bands in Japan dominate the music scene you will be even more impressed. World class musicians at every instrument and little Haruna (4' 9") on the kit is the beast that drives this flawless machine especially LIVE. She is as good as they get and that is without any real time to shine. This is her pace for an entire 90+ minute set. She literally runs a marathon at every show, yet smiles, never breaks a sweat and never misses a beat ( no she is not an android ) LOL!! Great reaction, now pick anything else from their 50+ catalog but do it LIVE as these women, petite and graceful are better LIVE, the Wolfpack (loyal fan base) guarantee that fact!!.
The drummer's stamina is awesome as she keeps this sort of pace for the entire live show - nearly 2 hours. And yes do Holy War 2020 live. Live is where they really shine. A lot was riding on this song for them too as it was the first new material since their new bassist joined them. 🐺🐺
That drummer actually a little beast. This speed was just a regular speed for her. If you want to hear how brutal she is, pls check their other track from the same album : Dissonance. But only audio, not MV.
Thank you for reacting, pls continue the journey, wolfpack will flooding your channel🤘🐺🤘
Great Reaction CD. *_Heads Up!_* Lovebites is doing a Live Premiere of their new album, Judgement Day, on Tuesday morning @ 5:00AM CST (8:00pm JST). After the stream they will also play the next MV from the album for the fans (it will be released on CZcams on the 25th). If you wanna feel like a Wolf - this is your first chance. The Band members will be in Chat for the Premiere. Welcome to the Wolf Pack. They have a 50+ song discography on CZcams. As you can probably guess, there are NO clunkers. The talent level in this band is Off the Charts. It was fun watching you react to Haruna, she is a double-kick machine - and she is *known* for her spinning star cymbals, and hitting the shit out of all the other ones (especially that ice bell!). 🤘🐺🤘
Man, this is the best metal band in this world since 2018! Start to listen LOVEBITES masterpieces and i hope you enjoy this journey! Welcome to Wolfpack!

Judgement Day has their new bassist Fami the album drops Wednesday the 22nd but you can hear it Tuesday at 6AM EST in the Lovebites Livestream of the album and the girls will be in the chat with us. after the livestream they will release the 2nd Music Video ahead of the albums release The Holy War from 2020 is most viewed but the Holy War at Ride for Vengeance in 2021 Asami held her notes 2 times as long as she did in 2020.
Haruna is unique and is a master of heavy yet not too much cymbal use, master of the bell, and both ungodly kick drum stamina and creativity. IMO she is the most skilled of the band at her instrument. Many drummers are background timekeepers but she is out front sort of a cross between Keith Moon and Neil Peart. The studio version of Addicted her entrance is one of my all time favorite drum entries. She knocks on the door then Godzilla blast through it. Will watch your analysis of other performances.
Wolfpack is here for LOVEBITES! 🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼
The rest of their discography is just like the band.. solid AF. Don't box them off as power metal though, they are influenced primarily by bands such as Priest, Maiden and Helloween, and have a great selection of thrash along with a diverse selction of classically-influenced pieces, and some slower compositions too, all of equal standard. This is the first release from their new studio album of the same name which is released on Wednesday, though the band are hosting a pre-release watch party on their YT channel on Tuesday., and is the first offering with Fami their new bassist, coming off the back of a 16 month hiatus after the former bassist parted company. I'm sure you'll come to admire Haruna's drumming stamina even further once you've tasted a sample of their live shows and yeah, they keep this pace up for 2 hours 😅 Hopefully you'll enjoy the ride!
LOVEBITES "Dissonance" definitely needs a reaction from you.
Welcome to the party pal.. Over 40 more to go.. And they are all great... Also check out Aldious Dominator and We are.. Another great Japanese drummer.. And band..
Welcome to the Wolfpack!🤟
Next Lovebites song: "Set The World On Fire" Live!
Not just power metal, Lovebites also plays thrash metal and masterfully mixes the two. Haruna, the drummer, is ranked in the top 50 drummers in Japan. She is super small but plays with such power, speed, and endurance. To really see and hear her drumming skill then do their song "Shadowmaker", especially the time Lovebites played that song at Wacken Open Air festival in 2018. Haruna was the talk of the audience afterward.
My friend was there and they brought in an overflow crowd and drove them nuts. Haruna was the "who is she" question leader. The entire band was talked about too bad it was closing time, next time the spotlight on the Main stage on Saturday night is in order with a Live recording for all us poor pack members who won't be able to attend
Yas,she is my favourite drummer, so crazy good with the kick and the simble
Congratulations, you just found the best new metal band to come along in decades. I see you have just started your dive into the J-metal vortex, and this band is the avatar of J-metal.
In their first five years of existence, they put themselves on par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. They recently went on a year-and-a half hiatus while they searched for a new bassist. They announced the new bassist in October 2022 (see below) and dropped their first new song, “Judgement Day” on December 22. 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 founder of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the great 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 groups. The four of them then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she was also trained in ballet).
Miyako has composed a little more than half 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 and is also getting involved in composing.
In mid-2021, Miho left the band she had founded, for personal reasons. They recently announced their new bassist, Fami, who is a young phenom and herself a composer and multi-instrumentalist. Their first song with Fami is “Judgement Day” czcams.com/video/m3uGjp-P7DI/video.html
The instrumentalists studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. 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. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance was that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining.
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 crazy). 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:
“Set the World on Fire” czcams.com/video/99zsH6iG_6c/video.html from their 2021 concert DVD “Heavy Metal Never Dies”.
“Don’t Bite the Dust” czcams.com/video/oHnKGEj1CMc/video.html, from the same concert;
"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;
Perhaps their greatest masterpiece, a showcase of multi-instrumental virtuosity and even classical dance “A Frozen Serenade” czcams.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/video.html;
And their most reacted-to video, “Holy War”: czcams.com/video/bgAxpEpEcno/video.html
Miyako is also a virtuoso 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/5Pc0XK0lNmU/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!
Welcome to the Wolfpack! 🐺🤘🏻
The drummer Haruna does double bass for the majority of a two hour concert.
On 18 June 2018, LOVEBITES won 'BEST NEW BAND' at the Metal Hummer Golden Gods 2018 awards organised by the British metal magazine METAL HUMMER.Former R&B and Soul singer Asami (Vo) has transformed into the lead singer of the Japanese heavy metal queen band.
Trained in classical ballet from the age of two, she was inspired to become a singer after singing the national anthem at a minor league baseball stadium in the USA.
LOVEBITES join DragonForce on UK tour 2019.
Asami (Vo) of LOVEBITES appeared as a guest on stage at Halestorm Download Festival UK 2019, singing alongside "Lzzy" Hale on Halestorm's 'Love Bites', which gave the band their name.
On 2 December 2019, LOVEBITES was the support act for the Tokyo leg of Halestorm's Japan tour.
On 17 August 2021, LOVEBITES took an extended break after the departure of their leader, bassist Miho.
The remaining girls organised an audition for a new bassist from around the world and recruited a new bassist called Fami(Ba).
Fami is a five-string bassist who can dance, sing and play and has 671,000 CZcams subscribers.
You will be amazed by new bassist Fami's slapping and fast finger picking. If you watch "Alien Alien" on her CZcams channel, which was uploaded 4 years ago with 10,520,000 listens on her content, you will be amazed at her world-class slapping skills.
Fami had his signature headless bass WOODLINE5AC-HL Fami from the Bacchus Handmade Series when he was 19 years old.

LOVEBITES is fully recovered and the music video was released on 24 December 2022.
"JUDGEMENT DAY" is the first song from the long rest.
"JUDGEMENT DAY" proves that LOVEBITES is back in full force and justifies the adoption of Fami.

From here, Wolfpack around the world will provide guidance.
LOVEBITES is a metal all-rounder, except for the death voice.
Some of the songs are a fusion of classical and metal music.
Many of the Japanese labels have entrusted their copyrights to JASRAC (Japanese copyright management organization).
Due to the strict copyright laws of Japanese music, we recommend that you stop the video every two minutes if you can.
My hope is that you will support LOVEBITES on a regular basis for many years to come.
Haruna is a F beast and wait til you hear their thrash. Set The World On Fire live next and be prepared to have your face melted. 🤘🐺
Welcome to lovebites, thank you for doing this reaction to lovebites, LOVEBITES ROCK
welcome to the wolfpack welcome to the world of Lovebites the world of beautiful ballads, heavy, power, speed, thrash metal.
Great reaction. Keep going with Lovebites. There are also many all female or female fronted bands that blow your mind in Japan. Welcome to heavy Japanese music world. 🤘
Man, the reason I watch reactions is to hopefully see someone get as excited as I do about the band/music. If they have some technical knowledge to share too, even better. These are the best kinds of reactions, not the ones where people watch quietly to the end then say "That was good. Hit Like and Subscribe". Enjoyable reaction, thanks.
Do Holy War next! The drummers nickname is little big engine or pocket nuke btw, because she's only 4'9 and plays like that.
These ladies were the opening act for DragonForce a couple years back. Every one of them is a master of their instruments.
Since you've reached deep into the world of metal, you need to see a true master of the kit, Kai Hahto of Wintersun and now Nightwish. Watch the song Sons of Winter and Stars by Wintersun. You'll be amazed.
Do more, do anything, do live, you won't be disappointed and do it soon.
Just stay away from any videos from Bloodstock. The audio is really bad.
Live!! Even better, best live act around at the moment, together, complete, absolutely mesmerising, must listen/watch, technical geniuses.
They have a bunch of live performances
Note : Not for a reaction but they were asked to write a song for an anime called Vlad Love. It became so popular they expanded it and released it as a single on a EP.
They have a video that includes cuts of the anime.
Watch the live performances, start with "Holy War" and go from there. I Havn't found any filler songs in their repatoire . My favorite song this month is "scream for me"
Great reaction! Trust me the japanese metal/rock scene has many amazing all-female (Nemophila, Hanabie f.e.) and also mixed (Babymetal, Unlucky Morpheus, Broken by the scream)
groups. Since I've discovered japanese music I just rarely come back to western music 😅

I seen them in Edinburgh and Newcastle UK on tour with with Dragon Force.
I actually like you speaking over the track while it plays. I think it suits your style to do that, actually.. And doesn't break the groove. You shouldn't stop that :)
I know a few don't like it and think it gets in the way, but I've got the ear to listen while speaking and hope anyone watching has already heard the song solo. I've never loved reaction videos that are either so empty or they pause every 5 seconds to say a tiny comment. The pauses are more distracting imo, but you can't please everyone 🫠
yes Welcome to the wolfpack and you have been Lovebitten today there are no bad Lovebites songs and they have 3 albums 4 EP's 4 Live Albums and the 4rth album will be released Wednesday
Haruna is very well known for her immaculate cymbal work.
You should also check out the band Hagane. They have a new song out called "Sword of Judgement". And of course, the drumming in this track is insane. It's a really good song. You won't be disappointed.
Haruna from Lovebites is one of my favourites drummers.
The others are from all the world, but Japan have some of them:
*Akane, from Band-Maid, that you know from previus reactions.
*Murata Tamu, from NEMOPHILA. Japan
czcams.com/video/AxYiOwsu6wU/video.html
*Dan Presland from NE OBLIVISCARIS. Australia:
czcams.com/video/UgudL2znU_4/video.html - be prepared to be amazed
*Kai Hahto form NIGHTWISH / WINTERSUN . Finland

* Jorge Garrido aka 'El Estepario Siberiano', from SARATOGA. Spain
czcams.com/video/ZVtj5TYodAI/video.html
And.. some others..

This is their first song with new bassist Fami.
Note first all Female Japanese Power Metal band is Aldious formed in 2008.

Welcome to the WOLFPACK!
HEIL THE MAIDENS QUEENS OF HEAVY METAL! 🤘🏼🐺👑
imagine haruna the drummer doing that the entirety of their concert...solid 2hrs...you'll get exhausted by just watching them...
You could start with pretty much anything and fall for this band. 'Holy War' happens to be the gateway drug for many, but 'Judgement Day' is the MV for the first track released on their forthcoming album of the same name (to be released in full this week), so it's obviously in the spotlights at present. The bass player Fami only recently joined, following a much publicized audition to replace Miho, who left for personal reasons.
Haruna is the drummer you're admiring, Asami is the vocalist, and Midori (the blonde ripped one) and Miyako (dark haired one) are the dual lead guitars. You'll get loads of requests from the Wolfpack now, so I'll get mine in for 'Break The Wall'. And live performances are outstanding, especially from the 2019, 2020 and 2021 Tokyo concerts, which had decent sound mixing.
For live content, watch the Five of a Kind tour in Tokyo. The opening song is awesome and the whole concert is great.
Thanks for your reaction and welcome to the best all female power metal band in the world right now. About the drummer her name is Haruna, her inspiration is ex Helloween drummer Uli Kusch. Her drum style is unique . One of the best female drummers world wide. Have to check the songs Set the world on fire, Break the wall, Frozen Serenade, Bravehearted, Swan song. To see her work. Enjoy it.
" One of the best drummers world wide." Fixed it for you
" … welcome to the best all female band in the world right now". Also fixed it for you. And I was tempted to also remove the word "female".
Haruna keeps that double-bass kicking going for the better part of two hours when they play live. She must have thighs of steel!
The Lovebites rabbit hole is deep and well worth the ride. But buckle yer seatbelt.
Haruna's cymbal work is the best. It's easy to pick her out of a crowd by her cymbal work alone.
Forgot to add I always thought china cymbals were very clunky sounding like they didn't really fit, Haruna uses them as a standard piece likely using them more than anyone I have ever seen and she makes them work.
I use a china a lot too, basically as a third crash. Too many people try using heavier chinas as casual accents and it never feels right, but thinner ones like mine and hers are really versatile imo
Fami (Bass) drives it like a stolen Nissan Skyline GTR. 🔥🤘
Haruna is one of the most creative drummers out there. Glad you picked up on her use of the cymbals! She is only 4’9” and plows through a 2 hour concert.
🤘🐺🤘 *LOVEBITES* 🔥😈🔥
You can’t stop….all of it, go for all of it. All great.
I'm sorry, but you didn't start watching MV from the beginning . Let me give you some advice... don't turn into a sportscaster when you watch and listen to a song that's new to you (for the first time).
The duration of the LOVEBITES concert reaches 2 hours (18 - 19 tracks).This is when it comes to the endurance of these Ladies.
In 2021, Miyako (brunette, guitar, piano, backing vocals) was 4 - 5 months pregnant during the LOVEBITES concert tour. She superbly played a series of 2-hour concerts in different cities. Moreover, the quality of pregnant Miyako's playing is head and shoulders above the game of most male guitarists who are in a normal physical condition.
🔥LOVEBITES🐺MASTERCLASS🔥Great reaction bro🤘🏻
Next song: *_𝕭reak 𝖙he 𝖂all_*
Fami Fami Fami!
Great reaction. Better be good? Wasn't it? You have just found the best five musicians, not female, but simply the best five. They are bunch of genius. The dark haired guitarist Miyako started teaching herself guitar at her eighteen, the muscular guitarist Midori started at her twenty, the bassist is even twenty years old now.
The 4'9" tall drummer Haruna and all of them keep this power and speed all through each two hour show. Dragonforce? Lol, they even have gone beyond Iron Maiden and Judas Priest already. They are the best band in the entire history of metal.
I suggest Swan Song with Revolutionary Etude czcams.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/video.html for your next reaction to Lovebites. It's an amazing live performance.
Dragon force wishes that they were this good 👍 and yes Haruna is the best since the days of the Rev
Haruna the drummer hits all the cymbal even the "STAR" cymbal..

The drummer plays all over his kit as well.
LOL. This band is on its own level. It has no Peer! You haven't realized yet what you just discovered. But you will.😂😂
Most of Lovebites songs are extremely fast and include lots of double taps.
and if i told you that they can pull it off live would you believe me ? hopefully you will go further and see for yourself the greatest metal band in eons. and yes - drummer haruna does that for 2 hour shows. indestructible.
Oh I'll definitely be looking at some of their live stuff soon. No doubt they can do it, but as someone who'd never be so comfortable in a live stage setting it'll always impress me
This is epic resurection of Ladies with new bassist.

Stay safe. Stay Lovebites
Isn't it terrific that when you get bitten it does not bleed. 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺 💯💓
Dude, the talent in this band is unreal. They just happen to be chick's.
Comments are in the way of music. How about musicians getting in the way of music? Anyway, it's annoying.
If you're a drummer, I recommend you listen to "Dissonance".
Haruna is the cutest drummer in the world.
There are many great musicians from Japan. Especially from the rock and metal scene. Senri Kawaguchi is very impressive. She is a jazz and fashion drum player with incredible technical skills. She has an impressive solo on the Drumeo.
I think she is now Japan's most technically proficient female drummer. And probably from all Japanese drummers.
I've watched Senri many times. Her ability is just nuts. The control she has is almost offensive 😂
Haruna !!! Haruna !!! Haruna !!! 🤘🤘
Has LOVEBITES ever done a cover of Painkiller by Juda Priest? I bed it would be amazing!
Welcome to the best heavy metal band 🐺🤘🔥
Yes! You have to see their live performances!
I recommend some

What you should be saying is "I've never seen powet metal played as well even by an all-male band."
the girls know how to rock, so many excellent songs, but lately my favorites are "Dancing with the devil" and "Spellbound"
RAISE SOME HELL

Lots of Great Japanese bands.
Do Bridear Brave New World Revisited, great aggressive drumming.
Haha.. you've been bitten and amazed huh. Phenomenal band and the best metal band in 2 decades.. 50's song of them, live was mindblowing..check it out in YT👍🤘🤘

Several things.
FIRST of all - great reaction video dude;
Secondly - as a TRUE Metal-er who first heard Heavy Metal back in the mid-80's when I was in Junior High, I have to honestly ask: just EXACTLY what in the NINE HELLS is that 'power metal'?
I ask simply because as a TRUE Metal-er, I know that the genre of Heavy Metal has ONLY 6 TRUE subcategories:
1 - Heavy Metal;
2 - Punk Metal;
3 - Speed Metal;
4 - Thrash Metal;
5 - Death Metal;
6 - Black Metal.
And since there's NO subcategory of 'power metal', I'd HONESTLY like to know how all the Yutes nowadays came up with that "label".
ANOTHER thing I'd like to point out is that SO many Yutes nowadays try to compare Metal bands with DragonForce, acting as if DragonForce was EITHER the FIRST Metal band to use a specific style of playing OR that they are the BEST Metal band to do so.
What ALL those Yutes lack the experience to understand is that DragonForce (YES, they actually are good, but they're NOWHERE NEAR the best) are simply following in the footsteps of Metal bands from back in the early 80's to mid-90's. Bands such as Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Nuclear Assault, Testament, Armored Saint, Death Angel, Overkill, Venom, Helloween, Flotsam and Jetsam, Bolt Thrower, and many more.
But that's just the inexperience of the Yutes nowadays, MOST of whom are most likely barely old enough to start trying to grow Peach-Fuzz on their faces.
But that being said however, again great reaction video dude.
Oh by the way, you just got a new subscriber.
That was a whirlwind response lmao. I can answer a few of the questions though. To be fair i can't guarantee you'll LIKE the answers depending on how you take it, so there's your disclaimer first lol
First, while sure, metal started out with a few subgenres, all of them exist purely because the specific qualities of each got more and more niche in different directions. There's no tree standing that stops growing, and even if you don't see them as "real", they're still used and celebrated nonetheless. There are about 20 main subgenres in total these days, and for a good article on how they're unique, i recommend this one if you're curious to find out WHY so many exist.
www.guitarguitar.co.uk/news/141030/
That said, the article even states how love of metal is pretty tribal. While you may not love or be into all of them, listing your personal favorites as the only "true" ones is short-sighted. There's some AMAZING work out there from bands neither of us have heard of yet, and personally I'd never pass up the chance to experience as much as I can, no matter who classifies it as what. If it sounds good, it's good to me, and that's all that should matter. If you don't like a sound, there's no rule saying you have to like the band, or that every band in that subgenre will also be bad. Open minds lead to a lot more places beyond the gate, and I'd prefer to join people walking through it or usher them through and wave as they go. Not standing in their path.
As far as using Dragonforce as a point of reference, it's because for my generation, they were introduced in a unique way at a unique time and had a unique sound not familiar to most: 2007, Guitar Hero 3. Through the Fire and the Flames was a bonus unlockable track, and one of the most challenging songs on the disk. It was the pinnacle of THE rock music rhythm game sensation, and the introduction to power metal for most of the world. That's why it's used to this day as a comparative note. Not because DF is "the greatest" in their subgenre, or metal as a whole. Just because it paints a very clear picture in the minds of anyone that's heard them, and that's most people these days. So, in a way, it WAS the "first metal band" for a lot of us. At least the first with their sound. The same could be said for Metalcore and Killswitch Engage with My Curse. Also made popular from Guitar Hero.
When making videos like these, it's best to draw parallels and comparisons that are highly experienced. If I started using mire niche names like Angra, Gloryhammer or Nemophila, nobody would know what I mean or have a frame of reference. As the communicator of shared interest, I have to strike that balance of informative but not alienating. I do ask people to check out obscure groups on occasion, but it needs to REALLY warrant it or i risk confusing more than teaching.
Frozen serenade for the next
😁😁😁 just wait until you get a load of Hanabie!
