They have basically created their own genre, Lovebites Metal, an evolution of their many and varied influences.
Good point!
Right on the mark. In fact, a number of the Japanese bands (especially all female) are refusing to lock themselves into any particular genre.
Yeah man. I call it "Class Metal".
Totally agree. Been saying that for months. Lovebites IS a genre. Best band in rock history. No discussion.
I agree they have a crazy good (can I say 'breathtaking?') and unique sound. You know it's Lovebites when you hear it. The new album shows how they are still able to have tremendous range within their own genre.
Lemmy is sitting on a cloud, chuckling with approval at Fami's intro...🤘🔥
Great to see you back man! I loved your excitement with the thrash sound. I think Fami added is gonna turn LOVEBITES into one of my favorite bands. Like top 3.

They are like Lovebites the mix of punk, thrash, power metal, hard rock and rock.😎♥️🎤⭐️🥁🎸🎸🎸
Did you notice that they goofed around with each others instruments? Good to know that they are so comfortable as a group to do that. It bodes well for the future.
Exactly five years ago, on February 23, 2018, Lovebites held their solo concert "Re-Awakening From Abyss Live 2018" at Shibuya Music Exchange, Tokyo. The encore included the "Overkill" Motörhead cover and "Eagle Fly Free" Helloween cover.
Yes it's thrash but it's also got a groove very few thrash bands ever achieve. It's amazing how they can mix up so many styles and influences and just make it all better.
Definitely hear Motorhead influences, and their new album is ridiculous, only halfway through it, but an 11/10 so far! 🤘🐺
Like I always say (and many more who know their abilities and songs by now), "It 's just Lovebites. What else is there to say?" And both fans and these ladies show a happy, proud, relishing face. 😁 🐺
What an awesome song and video!! Love the feel of the song!! 🤘😊
great reaction the queens of metal are back and better than ever!!!!!
This is already becoming my all-time favorite LB song. In some ways its like an homage to the best of the 80s. I hear Motorhead, Maiden, Priest as well as some of the best US thrash, mixed and matched and turned into their very own brand of amazing. It seems like whatever they touch they turn into gold. It's time for them to be one of the big names.
This is modernized 80's thrash. Everything Lovebites does is modernized versions of musical styles from decades go. I think they do break the mold, because no other band I have ever heard blends genres and influences to make Lovebites metal. This song and "Dissonance" are killers!! I believe they are all singing. BTW, music volume was a bit low, in my opinion.
Another masterpiece created by Miyako! It shows just how insanely talented she is; she can write this song and also write "Swan Song" with all of it's classical music influences. You are going to love this entire album. I got it today, and WoW! There are 10 tracks, 4 of which I love. The other 6 tracks, I f***ing LOVE! In other words, it's an amazing album. There's not a bad song on it, and there's not a slow song on it! The entire thing is in-your-face, a** kicking, face-melting metal. Simply put, it's the best new metal album in many, many years!
Not totally Miyako. This the first collaboration between Asami and Miyako on the music side (the lyrics are still Asami's).
You should see and hear their "Break The Wall""- You'll jump out your boots
This song put me over the edge, i bought the album. Asami has a GREAT GREAT voice. The guitar playing is super tightly coupled!
This song is awesome!
my favorite thing about lovebites is that they wear their influences on their sleeve but make it their own sound. In this i personally hear motorhead influence but as you said its all just a way we break things down to understand
Truth. Motorhead. But they don't straight-up copy Motorhead. It just happens to be in the style of Motorhead. Lovebites has a rare talent of being able to do this with all the influences. They can take any style, and create something unique with it.
@@TheCyberMantis Someone in the comments on one of the many reaction videos called them "Motorbites" 😉
@@pema22 I saw that! Too cute ne. 😆
I enjoyed this song way more than I thought I would at first. Not that I thought it didn't sound good or anything at first, it just grew on me so fast. I can't wait to see them perform this one live. It reminds me a bit of Raise Some Hell just in the sense that it feels like it's going to be one of their 'lets have some fun' songs, if that makes sense. The gang vocals and chorus are probably some of my favorite in any Lovebites song, tbh. As much as I love Lovebites one thing that stands out to me is how literally everything they do is good. Like, not trying to sound like some 'fanboy' that can't admit when things aren't good or whatever about their favorite things, but they legit nail every song they've done. I cannot think of one song of theirs I do not like, and I cannot say that about any other band I listen to. And somehow, after all the stuff they've done, they release new stuff and it immediately jumps to the top of their stuff for me. Like, they are 'still' getting better. And getting better while implementing a new band member. Who, imo, has fit in almost too perfectly.
Thanks Champ. This was an instant favourite for me. This is just straight up rip your face off old fashioned hard rock. Love it!
I loved how they played around mid song each member playing another instument. an Miyako Was actually pulling of the drums.
Their new album is truly fantastic. You should listen to the whole record.
... I'm not sure if you noticed that they had fun switching instruments at one point 😄
literally did not lol
Last night I pre ordered it like before 9 pm on iTunes. At 9 pm it became available. It was nice to listen to the other songs. And they did not disappoint.
Not just 4 of them in the group chants/chorus. All 5 at times. You can see Haruna joining in as well some times. Which is even more impressive because she just keeps on drumming.
I was so happy to see Haruna joining in. Did you see her eyes open wide on the first time? Loved it.
@@RobinC63 I did notice that! It was like 1/2 a second, but I saw. Lol
I really love thrashing Lovebites but I'm so in Love with Fami my favorite bassist 🎸🐺🎌
I got up early and joined their album listening party-they were adorable of course. Having heard the whole album or most of it, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this song is going to propel them to a new level of popularity. This track just kills!
I have to admit "Stand and Deliver" has moved me closer to Lovebites. Their inclusion of Fami in the group didn't hurt. p.s. Miyako kind of reminds me of Saiki of BAND-MAID when it comes to stoic looks. hahaha (cool)
they both have the "Ice Queen" thing going 😁
I think you will love "My Orion" from this album xD That's a very Champ song.
They will have a movie made about how Lovebites took over for the aging Big 4 and took ☠️🔥 Metal 🔥☠️to another level soon after they finish Touring 🇺🇸 🐺
Truth. All they need is a world tour. And it will be
When both bands put out new videos on the same day, I was confused. I didn't realize it was my birthday.
You said nobody is doing this music anymore. I agree. Another reactor said of them after listening to this song that Lovebites is the standard.
Re: Fami's smile and being part of the team. During the bass tryouts, the other members said from the moment she walked in the room, it was like a bright light of good energy.
.... and that the could see each others smiles under the masks they were wearing.
you should do dissonance or soldier stand solidarity, their both super fast and awesome
You will LOOOOOVE 'Dissonace' 🤣🤣
You didn't mention the obvious (to me) influence band to this song: Motörhead
yea def them too
【Interview with Asami and Fami】
Asami wanted to use the sound of "river" in the lyrics, but thought it would be strange to use "river" as the chorus.
Asami found "deliver" and thought it would be cool if everyone shouted it out instead of just telling what the word means.
From there, Asami arrived at "stand and deliver.
"Stand and deliver" is a pirate term that apparently means "Leave all your money!"
Asami thought that if he wrote the lyrics as they were, it would be a song about a "pirate king.
Asami wanted to avoid that.
Asami learned that "deliver" can also mean "to carry out" or "to be free" in addition to "to deliver.
From there, Asami put the following thoughts into the lyrics.
Nothing satisfies me.
It's boring to be like this every day!
Let's go more bouncy!
Let's be bold and do something different!
Let's break out of our shell!
Only in Japan do you go searching for a metal bassist and find one who is cute as hell.
Great review Champ. Hopefully they will make a stream of their March shows available so we can see this live.
What a great song.
Great moving chord progression through Miyako's solo - requires real talent to create a coherent solo over that, but elevates the solo hugely. She also doing harmony vocals in the prechorus BTW.
I get Motorhead with Skid Row Slave to the Grind feel. And love the gang vocals. Asami has blown me away on this abum.
Interesting that you said this song gives you stronger Iron Maiden and Judas Priest vibes than most of their other songs. This is actually one of the first ones that does NOT give me Iron Maiden or Judas Priest vibes, lol! To me, this gives me very heavy Motorhead vibes, with a hint of Ministry (while remaining uniquely their own sound, of course).
catchy awesome song.. seems like a gun shooting sound i've heard. Lovebites just got some 'crazy brain' that succesfully composed this song..amazing. great reaction bro.
Fami Fami Fami! I LOVE this track and for Me it's the Judas Priest influences.
@@cutiepies-cy1wl absofreakinlutely Miho Miho Miho! but We are watching "Stand and Deliver" so Fami Fami Fami! LOVE BASS Peace and Love
Stand And Deliver (Shoot 'em Down) a killer blow to the Nemophila on their own territory.:)
I had a little shock when realize how small Asami is. Where does this vocal come from...
good to see you Champ. glad you enjoyed this and the B-M love-letter. This song is fire and tbh the entire album is fantastic. I think you'll enjoy it. How lucky are we to be alive to experience Lovebites, Nemophila, Band-Maid, BRIDEAR, Aldious, Lonesome_Blue, Hagane, etc etc. I feel blessed. I love seeing them more casual and not in their formal concert white gear. trading instruments and having fun, love it. such a great vibe off of this song and MV.
We will all make it. Believe in yourself! I know my next song gonna blow up!
Awesome song & incredibly fun video❤❤❤❤❤
I think I just ODed on subgenre talk. Thanks for mentioning Testament, though. I've always liked them. Plus, while I have been to a ton of concerts, I don't have a big pick collection. Alex Skolnick is one of the few I do have.
The vocal harmonies had me thinking ABBA thrashing 😊
So f... good! If you want some Maiden vibes, just listen to Wicked Witch!
LOVEBITES the BEST HEAVY METAL BAND in the WORLD....period!!!
BAND-MAID the BEST HARDROCK BAND in the WORLD...period!!!
I feel like most of their music exists on a spectrum from thrash to power metal. Sometimes it's a full on thrash song with very power metaly chorus vocals, sometimes it's a full on power metal song but with a heavy thrash rhythm guitar on the verse.
I wouldn't call this thrash, it's just fast, like hardcore punk fast. The beat's pure Discharge "d-beat", aka hardcore British punk circa 1980, but obviously more skilled players, and the bass tone's straight outta Lemmy. They DO have plenty of thrash songs though, in fact one concern people had was that they'd lose the thrashy edge without Miho in the band, since she wrote most of their best ones. Maybe go more symphonic or lean more toward the power metal side. However, that fear was obviously (thankfully) unwarranted, if you've heard Dissonance off the new album, which is pure facemelt. As for Fami, they got themselves a prodigy, which is very cool indeed, but Miho was no slouch herself, and they've had songs that started off with bass, like Scream For Me for one. Miho played a very deep low bottom end tone, whereas Fami's tone is much more clear. I thought that wouldn't work so well because Miho and Haruna were so locked in that they sounded like a single instrument except on the rare occasion when Miho did some fiddly bits, which she didn't do all that often as it's not her preferred style, but it works, so I'm happy. This album kills. I don't know if it's better than their other albums, but it's definitely not worse than any of them. I don't think Lovebites are capable of writing a bad song.
"Wicked Witch" and "Lost in the Garden" are two of the best Iron Maiden, (oops, Lovebites), songs you may ever hear.
The chemistry between them is obvious but there's something making me feel Midori and Fami are going to be cheeky troublemakers in the best possible way! Also can Asami get any cuter, bopping away at the front at the beginning of this video? This is absolute fire and by all accounts the album never lets go, which was so much more than I hoped for, and for me I would be completely okay if it wasn't so in your face! PS.. you're going to love "Dissonance".. 😉
I agree with the champ on his power metal comment. I could never find myself getting into power metal and even a lot of thrash metal and then Lovebites came and I thought maybe I'd been missing out on something but still found very few that I can get into. Lovebites is that exception and I love that they are the exception.
OMG you're ranting LOL you didn't leave me anything to say Champ. I loved it! That was good.
Seriously speaking the ladies have just become a way better band by incorporating their vocals full on this way. and i , for one am glad they didn't do the twin harmonies again. It was a fresh approach, and it shows how the band has shifted a bit. Miyako is my Kanami, because she has those other influences also like Gary Moore, and can also take on some bluesy excursions, and bring some different songwriting (IE Empty Daydream) which I think will allow the band a longer life. Anyway, I'm ranting now LOL this song rips! I love it!!!
That gang vocal chant reminds me of the hardcore punk band MDC from the 1980s. Otherwise Motorhead and NWOBHM bands.
LOVEbites
Motor head and Anthrax mashed together, banger.🤘🤘🤘🤘🐺🐺🐺🐺
Another girl band from Japan that I hope comes to uk for few shows 🤔🤔👍👍
Lovebites:"Who? Judas Priest, no we don't this girl" :D :D I barely listend to Print or Maiden, BUT I LISTEN EVERY DAY TO LOVEBITES!!
🐺🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A Motörhead (someone say Motörbites) beginning and and ACDC solo time.❤💯
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Big nod to Lemmy at the beginning I think!
Thank you fot reacting to good real music !! We need more trash rather than those other "trashy" unreal lipsync-er
Fami is much taller then the other ladies.
I call PowerThrash
I agree Lovebites just arrived for me with the latest material. Before, and no disrespect, they were a decent powermetal band, but THIS! Is happening. Love it. For me I’m hearing so Motörhead and yes, classic thrash/metal. Great review 🤘
Lol their musicianship alone was far ahead of the vast majority of power metal bands.
Dude! The music from the video is at least 6 dB too low in the mix. Don't you do any quality control at all before uploading?
I totally love this (can't stop listening to the album) but I'm afraid another gem will go under the radar : BRIDEAR's live album "Aegis Live in London". It's one of the best metal live albums of those last 20 years at least - seriously! If you can't buy it, listen to it on any streaming platform and you'll thank me later. Totally different metal genre than Lovebites, so no competition.
This song is like Metallica and Judas priest have the prettiest baby of all time
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 Gabriel Henrique CZcams ele cantando Whitney Houston, Tony Brexton, Marier Carey, Bruno Máx e outros (cover) obrigada e por favor ❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷😘😘😘
I think they chose this song as the next single specifically because of the bass. Personally, it is my least favorite song on the album, but since it's still a great song you can imagine how the rest of the album is. I am crossing my fingers that they make a MV for Wicked Witch.
@Eyeosphere00 I said it was my least favorite, that does not mean I don't like it. It means I liked it the least lol. That's why I said it's a great song.
Wicked Witch is incredible.
again I am so sick of people claiming that Lovebites is a power metal band, in all honesty, I don't believe anyone has a true meaning of what is power metal? It's all hogwash so stop it, Asami yells in the top of her lungs "We are Lovebites and we play Heavy Metal"
Man, your voice is twice as loud as the music! Maybe three times louder! I love your channel. Normally it's fairly even. Not sure what's happening today. On another note, someone coined the phrase " Hurricane Haruna". I love it. This gives us a glimpse into what their live performance might be like. Let's go see them, all 43,000 subscribers!
I agree. the music sounds low. normally, I like listening to this guy. but, if the music is too
low it’s a turnoff. I rather listen
to some other people
reacting to the same
music with better sound.
hmm sounds the same on my end... levels are same too. idk man sorry bout that!
Actually the style of the whole riff is more punk style, not really thrash. The speed makes it lean towards thrash, rather than the riff itself.
It's not really thrash. It's more 80's inspired hard rock with a little bit of punk thrown in.
Somehow they became like Nemophila ...
Not really. This song sounds a bit Nemophila-like, but the whole album still has it's own Lovebites sound.
Please try to balance the volume of your commentary and the music.
Champ you need pay a little closer attention. You totally missed the part in the middle where the whole band switched instruments - Miyako: Drums, Asami: Miyako's guitar, Fami: Midori's guitar, Midori: vocal mic, Haruna: faking two-hand tapping on the Bass. The reaction was accurat and positive though, so I forgive you. 🤘🐺🤘
It's great that you could hear the music. For me, I don't know about anyone else's experience with THIS reaction, if you would stop talking over the music, or turn UP the music, I would have given you a thumbs up. But since this reaction fails on all these points, I gave you a thumbs down.
Too much pause.
I have one comment. You have a very bad balance between the video sound and your own sound. Either I have to turn down the volume so I hardly hear Lovebites, or you are shouting in the entire apartment. Or deafens me if I use earphones. Otherwise, super nice song and (as usual) good reaction. NOTE - I choosed to hardly not hearing Lovebites. That was the least painful choice.
Hmmmmm .... seems like you have fixed it?
Metallica?thrash? More like trash... Testament way2 better them them, very underated bamd
Wait, this is not Adam Ant. 😄
now we got 2 bangers with that title
