    They do know how to make Metal sound beautiful even to the non metal head audience. This Solo was so technically sound from their riffs to their melodies. A Chefs kiss! Their musicality is bar none!

    The song that put the band on the map. BTW, on August 28, Lovebites will be releasing a new EP called "Lovebites EP II" with 5 new tracks. On the same day, they'll also be releasing a new LIVE LP called "Memorial for the Warrior Souls". This LIVE LP is from the Tokyo leg of the band's "judgement Day" tour held last year.

      Already pre-ordered! Lovebites is probably on their way back to Tokyo by now. My guess is: they will release a new song/MV from the new EP over the next month or so. They have their big show at Tokyo Garden Theater on September 1st. And then they will be off to the USA for the ProgPower show on the 6th.

    This song keeps getting better with each live performance. Not sure what they do (might be the stage performance), but they find ways to make a great song even better.
    ....and with Miyako being pregnant during this concert and playing as she did was amazing.

    "Dissonance" and "The soldier stands solitarily" are the ultimate and visionary masterpieces of Lovebites. I'm sure you enjoy it. The speed and precision of guitar work, the power of drums and bass, are insane, and Asami is great as always. If you check out this songs you will thank me :)

    Lovebites is literally all styles of metal rolled into one band, and then performed at the highest level.

    Miyako composed Shadowmaker under the influence of Scandinavian metal.
    It has five guitar tracks and two bass tracks. Midori and Miyako both chose it as their favorite song to play when asked back in December 2017.

    This song was their first big hit in 2017. Talk about a Gateway drug. Some bands arent quite up too snuff live as they are in studio. Lovebites says not so fast my friend have some of this. Can you imagine if this band was out in the late 80's. There would had been posters of this band Everywhere and I mean Everywhere. The work ethic and complete immersion of this band is truly one for the ages. Lovebites is Today's RacerX just in All Female form and with a Better singer......Fire!

  • @samshephard7164

    I like this perfection that Lovebites seems to be aiming for. The goal seems to be that we want to sound better than we did in the studio! How do we do that? Imagine if any band worked as professionally as Lovebites! My problem is that since I've known Lovebites, I've judged every other band by them. Because I now know that it is possible to play live concerts almost perfectly. So I expect that from any band that plays live. I love Lovebites and I hate old school metal. But Lovebites, is just fantastic. The skill of this band is a completely new level for me.

    This concert was released on the "Heavy Metal Never Dies - Live in Tokyo 2021" DVD. The concert where Miyako was about 4 months pregnant.
    Song is from their 1st album, Awakening From Abyss. Lyrics by Asami, music by Miyako, then known as Mi-Ya.
    What was that again that makes you Happy?! 🤣
    Where to next for LOVEBITES?? Suggest "Golden Destination" from this same 2021 concert, or "Stand and Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)" from the 2023 Knockin' At Heaven's Gate concerts.

    LOVEBITES - Shadowmaker lyrics:
    Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed
    Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe
    But still I go on, my hunger is strong
    Hoping that someone will grab my hand
    Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world
    Maybe it's too late?
    No one can save me
    From all of the darkness and solitude
    Cry, like shadows of the night
    I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive
    Despite going through this hell
    Cause still my heart has hope
    No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part
    Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart
    Reckless and fast, how long will I last?
    Dancing like puppets, I'm empty inside
    Fighting the fear, and grieving the dear
    Hoping that someday I'll be repaid
    Only my echoing heartbeats can prove that I'm here
    Am I all alone?
    Even a faint light is too bright for me, I can't see a thing
    Hide, in shadows I reside
    I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go
    In desolated land knowing no escape
    But still I wish to live
    Just waiting for a somebody to notice me
    Before I fall down to depths of the abyss
    SOLO: midori / mi-ya / both / miya
    Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed
    Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe
    But still I go on, my hunger is strong
    Hoping that someone will grab my hand
    Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world
    Maybe it's too late?
    No one can save me from solitude
    Cry, like shadows of the night
    I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go
    In desolated land knowing no escape
    But still I wish to live
    Just waiting for a somebody to notice me
    Before I fall down to depths of the abyss
    Like shadows of the night
    I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive
    Despite going through this hell
    Cause still my heart has hope
    No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part
    Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart

    Apparently the PA💻 engineer that they had originally requested for the first UK and Belgium performances canceled at the last minute🤣
    Asami-san mentioned on the radio that in the UK, the in-ear monitors were also intermittent, so they turned them off midway through the performance and managed to get through it.😭
    A new PA engineer, Chris, joined from Germany, and the sound equipment blended together to create the usual ❤️LOVEBITES sound🎶❤️, and the sound quality seems to have improved at the festival in Spain.😆↗️

    Thank you for your continuing support for Lovebites. I went to see them play at both the London gigs of their recent tour. I was one of those watching the New Cross sound check. I regret have to say this, but the New Cross was a very poor venue for such a talented band, small, scruffy and with a tiny stage that the ladies could barely fit on. That they performed as well as they did there speaks volumes for their professionalism and dedication. The second gig at The Garage in Highbury London is much better. Still small enough to be intimate, but with a decent size stage and much better acoustics. I was near the stage on the right hand side of the auditorium where I had a good view across the stage behind Miyako to Haruna, who I watched with awe throughout the show. I'm nearly 75 and have seen a lot of good bands and musicians play in my time, including drummers such as John Bonham and Neil Peart, both of whom I love, but never one like Haruna. (Before anyone jumps on me, I'm not saying anyone is better than anyone else, the styles are different, but all equally great in my humble opinion.) I'm not a musician, my music experience is limited to a few piano lessons over 60 years ago, but I like to think I know a good or even a great musician when I hear one, and for me all the members of Lovebites are firmly in the GREAT category. 🐺

Miyako played piano, synth, keytar and guitar despite being 4/5 months pregnant and rocked through the entire set!!!
