IRISH Guy REACTING To LOVEBITES / Holy War [Live at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020] 

Lovebites,... quite simply the best heavy metal band out there today. The current line up (with new bass player Fami) is on fire, so please check out any of the more recent tracks from the series of two concerts called "Knocking At Heaven's Gate Pt1 and Pt2" - "Hammer Of Wrath", "Liar" and particularly "We The United". There are more, but these stand out to me. As for Asami... you do you, but she is a treasure - truly the stage general in command at any and all Lovebites concerts. She could sing the phone directory and it would be magical. 🤘🎸🐺

Midori and Miyako are one of the best guitar duo's in metal music!

LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics: Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood People live in fear, covered in mud Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters There is a thousand, a thousand of evils Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and all for one forevermore SOLO: midori Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall Reincarnation, wait for your call Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters Morning star and dying moon Into the Gates of Hell we march Mighty soul, let there be hope Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal What do we live for？What do we fight for, tonight？ But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for Only have one thing on our mind Facing the fate, holy war SOLO: miyako / midori / both Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and all for one forevermore What do we live for？What do we fight for, tonight？ But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for Only have one thing on our mind Facing the fate, holy war ----- lyrics: LOVEBITES music: Mao arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) album: Electric Pentagram 01/29/2020

Elite musicians shredding my face off makes me happy.

Thin Lizzy are the gods of twin guitar....now. here's LOVEBITES kicking all our butts.

Regarding copyright blocking, as long as you pause the video, no LOVEBITES songs will be blocked by RU-vid.

Speaking of Thin Lizzy, one of the main influences for Miyako (dark-haired guitarist) is legendary Thin Lizzy guitarist Gary Moore!

Glad you came back to them. Lovebites have the ability to make people who don't normally listen to metal fall in love with it!

LOVEBITES. They are listened not only by metalheads. Ladies came out of their metal genre and have wider spectrum of fans. They play ECLECTIC METAL. It means they blend as the first band in history all kind of metal mainly power and thrash with NWOBHM, heavy metal, symphonic metal, speed metal, hard rock, rock, rock'n'roll, jazz, progressive pieces and even punk. They mix all with classical music using operatic, A&B, soul and gospel skills of vocalist and grand piano and Spanish guitar skills playing. Sometimes they use typical Japanese melodic lines which are included in ENKAs_ melancholy ballads singing by Japanese women. Only their can do it. Obviously they draw a lot from British, German and American metal.

Not too sure which genre/sub-genre of music you like, perhaps a much progier track which also shows a different side of this band - "Edge of the World" LIVE : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UZjxMjBop7w.html .

Thin Lizzy gave us the twin guitar attack, Judas Priest brought it to the heavier scenes and now Lovebites stand as proud heiresses 🙂 I truly hope you will continue with this band. They have ballads, heavy rock, old-time metal as well as speed and thrash. You can find it all as long as you like guitars. Many reactors have issues with her vocals at first but tend to get used to it after a few songs, because it's 'wrong' but it still fits incredibly well. It's their sound.

Two of the best guitarists in the world right there, and the best metal band in the world right now as well. Their style is power metal mainly, as with this song here, but they do thrash metal, speed, some things that might be deemed more progressive, power ballads. Maybe try another or two and maybe they and/or the style will grow on you more.. As it does, you'll come to appreciate it more. Might not be an every moment of the day listen kind of thing, but one you appreciate to the fullest when you're in the mood, and they sure are amazing to watch live. Thunder Vengeance the opener for this show from 2020, or Break the Wall, also from this show, would be two I'd recommend as great examples of thrash metal, and two of my favorites of theirs. I'd also recommend Epilogue, as a good power ballad and Empty Daydream as examples of other shades of Lovebites, as it were. Thanks for the reaction!

Wolfpack here.

Love Midori💚💚💚💚💚, and I miss miho💜💜💜💜💜

Vocals are subjective. I am an old metal head and there are certain vocal styles that I can’t stand. Namely, screamo/growl ing/barking. I just can’t listen to it. I grew up in a time where all rock/metal singers sang clean. The best singers in these genres all sing clean. Power metal singers like Asami with Lovebites is more traditional power metal, along the lines of Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson. They are like wailing sirens. The music style really requires it. My favorite is the semi-operatic vocals like Geoff Tate or a killer mixed voice like the singer from SteelHeart.

I appreciate the honesty.

I hear what you are saying about the vocals. I think you would really enjoy their slower song, the epic masterpiece, Edge of the World - no one has disliked the vocals in Edge of the World. It is worth a second listen. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Zr99B4RvaMc.html
