![LOVEBITES - Liar [Official Live Video] Reaction and Discussion!](/img/n.gif)
Miyako and Midori spent countless hours together playing guitar sessions, which hones their synchronicity when playing live. Almost too perfectly, some have suggested that their brains are connected by bluetooth. 😂
Midori is not improvising at the end. She is playing it the way it was written. Perfectly! Keep up the reactions guys. Great job!
LOVEBITES - Liar lyrics:
I always thought that you were my knight in shining armour
Took away my sorrow to feel I was your queen
Court jester
Hey I still can't believe you did this to me
Exiled from our castle as you crucified me
An executioner of every oath and vow of love
You played me
A sorcerer's enchanted spell's the iron maiden
And the ruler of my heart
You're just a liar
A slayer of the soul
Regret the day I ever looked inside of your eyes, yeah
You're just a liar
There's so much that I didn't wanna know
But then you let me go
Cause you're just a liar
I'm fallen
Still wondering why you'd wanna do this to me
Reminded though it's tormenting my sanity now
A blasphemy
Nothing but a facade, a fake reality spun
I wish that I could put this pain into a spell of
Blackest magic on your heart
You're just a liar
A slayer of the soul
Still can't believe it took so long to see your disguise, yeah
You're just a liar
There's so much that I didn't wanna know
But then you let me go
Cause you're just a liar
SOLO: miyako / both
You're just a liar
A slayer of the soul
Regret the day I ever looked inside of your eyes, yeah
You're just a liar
There's so much that I didn't wanna know
But then you let me go
No more
Just a lie
You're just a liar
A slayer of the soul
Still can't believe that it took so long to see
Through your disguise
You're just a liar
There's so much that I didn't wanna know but then
You let me go
Cause you're just a lie

Midori and MIyako lock themselves in the studio and practice these solos for hours on end until they're pertfect
They perform it perfectly..nothing out of place
Love this song! Haruna, Haruna, Haruna! Oh how I love Haruna! Her happy little self is just killing it back there and throws in stick twirls for show! Her fills are just out of this world. Oh, the rest of the band is great too.
🤘🐺🤘
I highly respect all of them, and I am deeply grateful for their music. But Haruna is my personal heroine. 😁 A fine lady, with a heart of gold, and world class drummer. 🥁🐺
M&M is the best guitar duo right now.
hands down
Love your Lovebites reactions / breakdowns! I'm no musician but I love what M&M do at the end. Miyako doing the main riff and Midori solo'ing over it or they're alternating, my layman's interpretation. Miyako does something similar at the end of shadowmaker where she adds solo bits in between Asami's vocals. Something I'm nearly 100% certain about and would bet a beer on, is Haruna's stick twirls / over the head motions are to keep time since this is a much slower pace than most of their songs. Haruna normally plays so fast these tactics must help her keep the cadence. They are all phenomenal musicians, every single one of them...having Fami join is almost a dream. Miyako does it all and is virtuoso obviously (never be another), but Haruna is the MVP in my eyes. She is in a league of her own in the metal genre. Her double kick is as good as anyone yet her cymbal accent work is unmatched, it's not even close. I love Dave Lombardo (Slayer dr), but he's known primarily for the double kick. Look at the drummer from UTA (who I like), Haruna has more cymbals than his entire kit. Just another perspective. Most Metal drummers are known for double kick and how hard / fast they hit. Haruna has taken it to another level with placements / accent timings. Again, just a layman's opinion. 🙂 Great reaction, they never disappoint! You should check out Winds of Transylvania live for some serious guitar work. 🤘
How beautifully shot is this video? Like you say you can see all the musical parts in sync
Miyako and Midori form one of the best guitar couples in the world. No discussion.
I agree but the twin guitar attack of Nemophila is nothing to sneeze at, either. Miyako is a classically trained pianist who would be an upgrade to any symphony in the world. She is probably the best trained and most proficient musician playing today. A insanely high level of musicianship. My three favorite bands working today are Band-Maid, Lovebites and Nemophila. Not favorite Japanese female bands. Just bands period. Regards.
@@sacluvsBM I would add Unlucky Morpheus, Exist~Trace and Gacharic spin, as far as Japanese bands are concerned.
@@rafakarkenobi and you would get no argument here. I am just listing the bands that are my personal top three. Many others l support and would pay to see.
There are tons of better more technical more melodic and more experienced guitar player out there, in Japan alone you have thousands that can easily be considered better. They are great though but let's not say they are the best in the world unless it is a purely subjective opinion in which case that's fair
LoveBites First US Appearance! ProgPower USA - 9/06/24
Hopefully Lovebites will do more venues while here..
According to Akane, drummer extraordinaire for Band-Maid, Haruna and her are the core members of the big eaters drummers' club. They are BFF and hang out frequently and often have dinner together. Young ladies must keep up their strength. If you go back and go thru the little phase you thought might be out of phase you will find it really isn't. Also, we can't deny that while the music is westernized (really don't like that term because they and others are making world music) there is still that slight Japanese influence that goes a way in making this music unique. It is more or less subtle but if you listen it is there. Lovebites will be appearing at Prog Rock 2024 next year in Atlanta and l suspect they are not coming to the US just to do one single festival. I have seen Band-Maid, Nemophila, Babymetal, Hanabie, the Hu, and Ginger. Lovebites is on my bucket list.
Asami is "The One and Only Voice!"
one and only＝唯一無二(yui-itsu-mu-ni)🎸🎸👍
Miyako also writes most of the music so she probably writes alot of the solos to fit herself
Miyako and Midori each write their own solos. They have been spreading the songwriting around, Miyako is now writing around half of their songs. Asami is taking more of a lead role, especially in writing the lyrics.
@@hiawatha.g but Liar was written by Miyako before she was in Lovebites I know they changed a bit so it fitted Lovebites
@@notwokevikingrules401 true, no argument here!
Haruna without gloves!

There are now four new live videos from the upcoming live album "Knockin' At Heaven's Gate", performed on March 11th, 2023, released on August 23rd, 2023. With this, you've already reacted to two of them: "Nameless Warrior" and "Liar". The other ones are "The Hammer Of Wrath" and "Judgement Day".
They have the new lineup with bassist Fami, and they are very energetic and full of fun to play after 2 years of hiatus and first with Fami. Audience as well.
There was a release party on their channel on Saturday (August 12th, 2023) 9pm JST (8am EST) with the whole album shown and band members in chat:
czcams.com/video/HcPCUXA3Leo/video.html (Link was removed after the show). The was a live stream to the current show in Tokyo on September 24th, 2023, as well (available until October 1st, 2023). But that's history now...
If not the new stuff, the next on the list "Swan Song (with Chopin intro)" is a must-see!
Also, the “strat” Miyako is playing is one that she put together herself. On her channel, she goes over her guitars and she mentioned that she found a site that sold parts so she ordered parts and built it. Midori is the blonde on the left and Miyako is the the one on the right.Originally Midori was just n the right and Miyako was on the left. Miyako was hired as the “support” guitarist.
I feel you guys on the end part. when midori was doing some lead.
it got a little busy.
It’s been reported that M&M practice together for many hours away from the other band member regular jam practice sessions. That’s another reason they are so tight.😊
The concert was last spring, same show as the Nameless Warrior video you watched. 2 others from that DVD that have been posted on YT so far. Hammer of Wrath and Judgement Day are the other 2.
The song is an old one. A metalcore song that Miyako brought with her from a former band called A Drop of Joker. Rearranged by LOVEBITES, they included it on their first album.
Yes, they are coming to the USA next year. They are playing ProgPower in Atlanta. Nothing else scheduled so far, but hoping this leads to a full US tour.
Check out those other 2 songs, and Break the Wall at Zepp DiverCity 2020.
I absolutely Love Miyako's Compositions !
All Five of these ladies are such Accomplished Musicians... They are Such A Pleasure to listen to !
🩷🐺🩷🐺🩷🐺🩷🐺🩷🐺🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for another great review !
1. There's no improvisation, it's always been like that.
2. I LOVE the outro a lot. I know very little about music theory and I don't find anything off about it. I think there's another key change at the last vocal note ?
LOVEBITES are playing in Atlanta Sept 2024. Haruna does stick tricks on quite a few songs - Rising and Shadowmaker I think. How about doing their cover of Eagle Fly Free and then doing Miyako's solo Piano version of it as well.
Tickets go on sale for Lovebites at ProgPower in Atlanta September 6th 2024 a week from today October 21st so mark next Saturday on your calander to get the tickets ]:)
🔥LOVEBITES🐺PERFECTION🔥
THANKS FOR YOUR REACTION🤘🏻🤘🏻
🤘🏽LOVEBITES RULES🤘🏽
Haruna flips the sticks all through the live performance of Today's The Day from Ride for Vengeance from 2021
they call Midori the shredder and Miyako is the golden touch more Melodic. Both are great and feed off eachother Haruna is just a nuclear reactor back there never misses
This is the reason they call her (The One and Only Voice)!!!!!
They are perfect, aren’t they?
Flawless perfection.
Another great reaction and I always appreciate you guys supporting LOVEBITES by playing their music! Regarding their style and music cadence, J-MELO did a great interview with the band in 2018 where Miyako explains how she writes in the pentatonic scale (apparently preferred by Japanese people) and then has to work to fit English lyrics in. Video of the interview is not long and easy to find here on YT!🤘
great and enjoyable reaction, guys.
Hi from France:
I'm an old rock fan, I started at the very beginning of the sixties. I had the chance to see a lot of groups on stage and to follow the evolution of this musics that I love.
And Lovebites is a band that I love. I have been doing it since 2018, which is already more than 5 years now.
I have all their CDs, EPs and DVDs (and even more, but shush!). Live, all five of them are extraordinarily virtuoso in their field. Nothing to question. I also like the clever use of live backing tracks.
But rock in all its forms since the origin also leaves room for improvisation, not as much as jazz nor, conversely, the rigor of classical music, but still. Now when listening to Lovebites on stage, I have the impression of hearing a perfectly oiled machine, almost inhuman. Too perfect and without fragility..
Only Asami tries new and risky things with her voice, it's often surprising and it's perfect! Why not other female musicians?
But what I miss most in this group is precisely the windows of improvisation. No free solo from Haruna, no moment of freedom for the bass,. From one concert to the next, the two guitarists are identical to themselves, brilliant, virtuoso, talented, but over time this risks losing the taste.
Look, for example, at the sudden madness that Kanami or Misa from Band Maid can unleash on stage! When Kanami lets go, it's delirium and almost a trance! Pure pleasure!
The crazy escapades of the Nemophila musicians, sometimes unmanageable, who jump and sometimes even improvise. This is pure rock!
I would say the same thing for groups like Asterism or Sokoninaru, on stage it's dynamite! You never know what will happen! The worst and the best, and the best always wins...
Lovebites are certainly the best thing to happen to the rock world in recent years, but more freedom on stage and this band would be the true giants of the scene.
Thank you and enjoy Wolfpack!
(Sorry for the Google translation, I hope I wasn't betrayed in my review.)
[Je suis un vieil amateur de rock, j'ai commencé au tout début des sixties. J'ai eu la chance de voir beaucoup de groupes sur scène et de suivre les évolutions de ces musiques que j'aime.
Et Lovebites est un groupe que j'adore. Je le suis depuis 2018, soit déjà plus de 5 ans maintenant.
J'ai tous leurs CDs, EPs et DVDs (et même plus encore, mais chut!). En live elles sont toutes les cinq dans leur domaine extraordinairement virtuoses. Rien à remettre en cause. J'aime aussi l'utilisation intelligente des backings tracks en live.
Mais le rock dans toutes ses formes depuis l'origine laisse aussi la place à l'improvisation, pas autant que le jazz ni à contrario la rigueur de la musique classique, mais quand même. Or à l'écoute de Lovebites sur scène, j'ai l'impression d'entendre une machine parfaitement huilée, presque inhumaine. Trop parfaite et sans fragilité.
Seule Asami tente des choses nouvelles et risquées avec sa voix, c'est souvent surprenant et c'est parfait ! Pourquoi pas les autres musiciennes ?
Or ce qui me manque le plus dans ce groupe, c'est justement les fenêtres d'improvisation. Pas de solo libre d'Haruna, pas de moment de liberté pour la basse. D'un concert à l'autre, les deux guitaristes sont identiques à elles-mêmes, géniales, virtuoses, talentueuses, mais à force cela risque de perdre de la saveur.
Regardez, par exemple, les folies soudaines que peuvent déverser sur scène Kanami ou Misa de Band Maid ! Quand Kanami se lâche, c'est du délire et presque une transe ! Pur plaisir !
Les frasques folles des musiciennes de Nemophila, parfois ingérables, qui bondissent et même improvisent parfois. C'est du rock à l'état pur !
Je dirais la même chose pour des groupes comme Asterism ou Sokoninaru, sur scène c'est de la dynamite ! On ne sait jamais ce qui va se passer ! Le pire comme le meilleur, et c'est le meilleur qui l'emporte toujours...
Lovebites est certainement la meilleure chose qui soit arrivée au monde du rock ces dernières années, mais plus de liberté sur scène et ce groupe serait le vrai géant de la scène..]
You are right in what you say. But I think that's because of the mentality of many Japanese. Improvisation is chaos and Japanese hate chaos.
Even in blues, jazz/fusion you can see and hear that in Japan. I think Lovebites perfection comes from the order in the process. If the order were interrupted, her perfection would be lost and Miyako would not like that at all. I am afraid they hate improvising ... 🎵😂🎶
It's true for Miyako, she has the roots of a concert artist in her. Everything comes down to precision and rigor, while adding feeling. But we can sense in Midori a greater possibility of improvisation. As a reference, her solo and especially her outro in "Epilogue" live in 2019...
(Sorry google trad, etc.)@@gitterich
It's just my baseless imagination, but I feel like LOVEBITES doesn't do much improvisation. Everything about their performance seems calculated and executed. (Of course, no one other than them will know the truth)
I think so because considering their personalities, I imagine that they would not do anything that might disrupt the concentration of other members. In the first place, one of the characteristics of the band LOVEBITES is that I feel that they don't like ``individual performers strongly promoting their talents'' like many bands do at live performances. (Personally, I don't dislike players who assert themselves, but...) I think the purpose of the members of LOVEBITES is purely focused on ``playing the song to its highest degree of perfection.'' Masu. (This may be a kind of prejudice that takes too much into account the personality of Japanese people, but...)

*This is a text using Google Translate. I hope I conveyed my intentions correctly.
Midori and Miyako when harmonizing guitar solos are like having two bodies and one brain
Fami had to quickly learn how to gallop on the bass, when she joined Lovebites. She wasn't doing "power metal" stuff before Lovebites.
Midori is the blonde guitarist best way to remember them is (M&M)
Great reaction as usual! Thanks!
Lovebites proved they could survive a bass player change, I'm not so sure about a drummer change. Haruna is too integral to the sound of the band. Just a beast behind the kit.
In other reaction videos I have commented on how I would love to hear the contrast between single coil & humbuckers. I got my wish and it sounds incredible. Only problem is I didn't envision Miyako playing the singles.
As far as Midori & Miyako are concerned, their proficiency on their guitars is unparalleled. I like the different dynamic style between the two of them. Midori is all about the speed where as Miyako is all about the feel. My guess is Miyako writes her solo's on piano first, then transcribes them to guitar. I would love to hear Jill (Unlucky Morpheus) play one of her solo's. I think it would transition really well.
Haruna is also the co-founder, difficult to replace a member so core to the fabric of the band.
Wolfpack here visiting your channel.
Of all the reactions you’ve done I’m curious how some of them have inspired your own writing in your band. Are there any ideas you’ve borrowed?
As a guitar player myself. I love how this band (and others) can play the duel parts so well live without weird phasing issues. It’s so easy to mess that up.
I prefer having a second guitarist when writing music. It’s nice to have someone to bounce ideas off of and I think helps the writing process along.
I have heard that Lovebites go to USA September 6 & 7, 2024. We also need them to come to Europe.
you can tell with the songs that they put out recently where fami sort of hangs back would be likely due to her having to work alittle bit harder than the others with how new she is to the band and has alot of songs to catch up on. going forward hopefully her playing personality will come more to the fore with songs that have her playing style taken into account when they are written. she has done well to pick up and fit into the band as well as she has i look forward to seeing more of her
If not mistaken, Asami already is a well trained as an acapella/r&b singer before joining Lovebites. Haruna simply looks 'macho' and sounds hard when she starts drumming. Fami power bass sync perfectly with Haruna and M&M. It's a Miyako written song (dark haired guitarist). What a stunning performance. Thanks guys👍🤘
Thank you for your reaction to LOVEBITES.

Miyako like wood grain, so this guitar is also painted in Ice Metallic Blue with a semi-open bore finish using nitro-cellulose lacquer that brings out the grain of the wood.
Kogiku, a traditional construction method with a history of more than 1,000 years, is a technique in which three mortises and grooves (convexes and concave) are placed on top of each other.
This construction method is used for the neck and body of the guitar.
The "Kogiku Logic" is the use of this construction method for the neck and body of a guitar.

Just awesome review!!
New subscriber.. I love how your guys notice every instrument. Most of these channels only notice the guitars. The unsung hero is the drums.
Fortunately nobody told Ritchie Blackmore "Don't improvise!!!" 😂😂
The song is played basically note for note. It’s perfectly rehearsed though and they played it perfectly to the point.
Haruna has been told by the UN not to play any drum solos because they could damage the planet.
😂😂 agree to that
Haruna ????? ther's not much to say she is AMAZING and NOT HUMAN ...she is a machine gun on the drummers ...wooooooowww ------she is the one ho give the beat to all Band,, she is a natural metronome born ....Fantastic Haruna That's little i think about her skill ........................````````
Miyako - Garry Moore japanese femal version 😎
Must admit I enjoy Sam's reactions - they're just enough 😉
Absolutely an awesome song by Lovebites, I loved the earlier versions of it with the Piano intro, but at the same time love how Asami opens it.
Miyako & Midori are a great team, probably the best twin guitar solos in the business. Midori melts your face & Miyako melts your heart!
They take turns taking solos and rhythm parts but my fave is their synchronized harmonies.
Asami just sing with eyes shout to just hear her voice sound (so professional) AMAZING BEGINNIG OF THAT SOUND What's happens after Asami solo it's just AMAZING sound Lovebites are fun and so good to listen to THey all Asami Haruna Mijako Midori and fantastic Fami in this song i'm so happy that Lovebites has been searching for a very good bass player she is perfect lovebites band member .......
Midori The blonde started to learn guitar at age 20. Midori is a graduate of Musicians Institute Japan in Osaka. Generally speaking, Midori said that she plays the "flashy and aggressive" guitar solos in Lovebites, while Miyako plays the "slower, more melodic" ones. "I like weird phrases, weird solos, and punchy stuff rather than classic pentatonic solos", Midori always writes her own guitar solos, and has stated, I want to play phrases that make guitar kids think, 'What is this?'" Midori is known for her technical proficiency and the use of various techniques in her guitar playing, such as legato, string skipping, sweep picking, tapping, eight-finger tapping and use of vibrato arms. As Midori speaks English, she helps write the band's lyrics, which are usually written in Japanese before being translated into English.
Guys I'm telling you check out winds of transylvania live it will blow your mind.
Hello. (sry if my English is not perfect, not native tongue). I've discoverd this band few months ago with "react chan". I usually like harder things. But they are soooo goood, i'm completely sucked in. And like always you guys are interesting and entertaining.
About hte guitars it's right wht you say Mijako has one style and Midory has another style, they are both AMZING and one of the best world guitars players ...(i'ts my personal opinion).
fyi my fav Epica song is Sensorium live but im pickin Visions of Atlantis Clocks offical video for Sam
LOVEBITES make difficult things look easy! Asami the singer has sufficient ability、like great Ronnie James Dio!
Off course Asami & the other members do thier best everytime、for us‼️
Midori is not improvising, she’s playing a faster counterpoint. And it’s possible that Haruna’s stick trick is an aide memoir for an uneven beat because she does it for most of the song, and she’s not really a flashy player.
2024年の9月にアメリカのロックフェスPROGPOWER USA2024に行くことが決まったみたいですね。
It seems that it has been decided that you will be going to the American rock festival PROGPOWER USA2024 in September 2024.
:)
You are correct in assuming they are equally on par with each other but incorrect in assuming Midori is the one who does most of the tapping, they both are excellent at it but Miyako is the one who does most of the tapping, Midori is a natural born shredder and utilizes the fret board like no other. While Miyako is the deeper and more soulful shredder
Let's agree again 😂 Midori is the most efficient I have ever seen from a shredder, staying in a short space and not moving all the way up and down the fret. Just amazing finger speed (which Miyako is much closer now thanks to her lessons from Midori).
So many Pauses 😅😅😅😅
The part that you said "sounds improvised"...it's not! Everytime I have watched a video of them doing this song, it is EXACTLY the same way all the time.
Man, if you don't improvise while gigging, you're living a boring life! It's more important to start and end where the original does, where solos are concerned. Also, if there are major emotional movements within the solo, those need to be nailed. Other than that, shoot for the moon and enjoy your on the spot creativity. If you are a strong guitarist, bad notes do not exist!
Be creative! I thought the only problem with Midori's solo, at the end, was it wasn't loud enough. Miyako's melodic part should have been mixed a little lower, while Midori should have been a little louder. If that were the case, there would be no clashing. In any case, this band is nothing but a giant, woman sized FLEX! Two excellent guitarist, Awesome bassist, Ridiculously skilled drummer and a general that could command all the armies of the world, the vocalist. This band is special!
Love bites is to power metal for me, it's like dungeon and dragons nerds power metal
Just an Iron Maiden clone..even the vocals are just like Bruce...granted they are excellent musicians.
doesn't sound like anything Iron Maiden
You should ban @ingopek5485 as this person or whatever trolls Lovebites reactions with nothing but hate and negativity.
