HARUNA!!! HARUNA!!! HARUNA!!! Sent from Heaven to pound us into the ground. Lovebites rocks!

React to Thunder Vengeance, Raise some Hell, Dancing with the Devil... live Tokyo 2020!!

I love reactions like this because it's exactly how I felt when I first discovered Lovebites earlier this year. For me, they're the best new band in 20 years, maybe more. I've bought everything they've released and there's not a band song among them. They were supposed to be touring their new album now but obviously that was cancelled... so they've been recording more new music instead! They're amazing.

Awesome!!....Now " Shadowmaker" official video.!!

hello🤗 Im japanese Im a big fan of lovebites To. thanks for picking up lovebites　TO your eyes 🤩😍🥰 their performance is a masterpiece To. there are still good songs to. Im looking forward　to it. seeyou🤘

The new Blu-ray has the best mix of them so far.

Thunder Vengeance LIVE, Raise Some Hell LIVE, Shadowmaker MV, you are ready!

These ladies get better Everytime. Everytime.

best live band on the planet right now - nobody else even close.

Lovebites and Unleash The Archers are simply the best power metal bands out there today. The talent is unreal. I would suggest you get their new album Electric Pentagram it’s amazing.

Miho and Haruna (Bass, Drums) were the core of a legendary metal group called Destrose. They wanted to go heavier, and left the band. (Miho is a complete metalhead, her collection of metal band t-shirts is supposedly over 500). She decided to put her own band together, recruited Haruna, and they recruited Midori, Miyako and Asami (Guitars, Vocals). Miyako and Miho compose most of their material, Asami helps with lyrics. That's highly condensed 🙂

'Epilogue' live harkens back to those 80's metal power ballads. One of my favorites and a nice change of pace.

I was first introduced to Band Maid after checking out a reaction review of Baby Metal. I really enjoyed what Band Maid had to offer and watched a reaction video of their song "Dice" where someone in the comment section recommended they review Lovebites "Shadowmaker". So I casually look up Shadowmaker and watch the video. Talk about mind blown! No offense to Band Maid (as I enjoy what they put out in the Rock category) but Lovebites is on a WHOLE OTHER LEVEL!! I have been completely addicted to this band for the last 6 weeks (imported both Concert DVD's from Japan and have downloaded every song they have to offer). They have literally dropped into my Top 5 bands of all time. These ladies are beyond talented and dare I say the greatest female Metal band (and easily my favorite Metal band) of all time.

Small, cute, diligent, serious and humble Japanese girls kick your ass. People around the world still don't know that Japan is a treasure trove of girls' metal and rock bands.

Wait until you see Miyako (right side,) play guitar with one hand and keys with the other hand live.

I saw them live last year in Osaka. They were incredible live. One of the single best live shows I have ever seen.

Lovebites is my favorite band at this time. I have 3 of their cds including Electric Pentagram the new one. They don't have a bad song! I listen to them all day every day!

My fav band 🤘🤘 the best female metal band 🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅

It's good to hear someone praising Asami's vocals. I've seen a few reaction channels recently say that her vocals are putting them off, which is a shame but I totally get it as it's so subjective. Highly recommend their live performance of Swan Song next. I loved it on the album but the live version is on another level. The whole Five of a Kind blu-ray is amazing. ETA: Also worth checking out Mary's Blood (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5XAN0xy4CIs.html ) and Aldious (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yvlvRZJLyVI.html ).

Good reaction. thankyou for LOVEBITES! There are two super melodic-speed power metal bands in Japan. Love Bites and Unlucky Morpheus. Both are outstanding vocalists and members with great talent. Check out Unlucky Morpheus. Especially "mouryou no missitsu". ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9tdHfSzySDo.html

This is what happens when angels play the devil's music! I just adore this band.

If you want more solo, just see their live performance from tokyo : Epilogue (balad), scream for me. Swan song, Break the Wall and many more. Their music are awesome but they underrated. Everyone who love metal must know them..

Japanese Iron Maiden on Steroids

Hi everyone, a tip, Lovebites> The Crusade and Band Maid> Onset. ありがとうございます！🙏🙏

React to 《swan song》live please!

Iam in love from Bolivia Latinoamerica, LOVEBITES, Guitarists Miyako and Midori are both from the city of Osaka, both took piano lessons for years (Midori also learned organ), and both took up the guitar relatively late. Midori went to music school - Musicians Institute Osaka branch, where one of her instructors was the late Mikio Fujioka, lead guitarist of Babymetal's Kami Band - and Miyako is basically self-taught. Miyako made use of a well-known instructional book series, whose title literally translated into English is "Mechanical Training Phrases from Hell", working her way through the entire guitar series. There are versions of these instructional books for bass and drums too, and there's hardly a Japanese musician on those instruments who hasn't studied them.

Yes Miyako solo Midori solo and MiyaMido solo I listen that every day that is out of the top and crashing vocal Asami with machine rythm Haruna drum section and Miho bass...... Very good reaction😎

Lovebites world-class master musicians to me IN MY OPINION there is no other better, although some do come close to their caliber. I challenge you to do a Lovebites mv reaction every day for a week and I promise you will not be disappointed. I know for a fact because I have their entire collection already, every single song gets better and better

Lets do -We the United(Lovebites) next 🤘😊🤘🙏🙏🙏

I think one thing that is very impressive is how the guitarists manage to play these intricate solos in harmony and not miss a damn note! And the drummer's thighs can probably crush rocks!

I honestly believe they are the best band out there at the moment. They have so many layers to their music, touching on different metal styles. They are master musicians, great songwriters, excellent lyricists, and a vocalist who can sing with the best of them. Any one of their songs would be a good pick to react to but the one that stands out for me is The Crusade. It has an Iron Maiden vibe but with their own style. I always recommend trying to find a live song.

Next The Hammer Of Wrath (live Foak) by them. What a great starting song to a live set, amazing stuff!

Everything you need to know about this band is summed up by the fact that the bassist Miho (who started the band with the drummer) was in a Pantera cover band in high school. Doesn't get much more badass than that. Some recs for other videos: Thunder Vengeance live - opened this show (from their official channel) - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yWE7PqCpGi4.html Hammer of Wrath live from this same show - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S3vjrVtAvzE.html We The United live which closed the show with epic front of stage dual solos (my personal favorite from them) - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i9OEaVapKcE.html

Ok, let's get the brains melted with Lovebites (yes again) "we the united" live! 👊💥👊

These girls🔥🔥🔥😍😍🤘😎🤘🔥🔥😍😍

Dude your mind is not fully blown yet. "swan song" with the Chopin etude leadin. When you realize guitar is not even her main instrument

And you know what's the best, you're still scratching the surface! 🤣

Hoopsick I posted your first lovebites reaction on 2 of there fan pages and Rosana Miho's own page which she uploaded later so she thought your reaction was good so keep up the good work and a good tune to react to is Epilogue live in Tokyo as another reactor started to cry so It's a good sign of how good the song is

I have been a fan of Lovebites since 2017 when they 1st created music, they have always wanted to Heavy metal especially NWOBHM mixed with Power Metal. Never looked back. All of their 3 albums and 2 EPs are just so awesome. When I 1st saw them in 2017 in the UK I was witnessing something huge on the way from them and I am not wrong. They have won Best New Band by Metal Hammer Golden Gods in 2018. I do highly listen to all their albums

Welcome to the insanity. I posted this before, but reposting so you don't miss it. There are not a lot of high-quality clips of them on RU-vid, because they get taken down quickly (except for their official posts). Here are most of the good ones currently up. I suggest doing the unofficial ones first so you catch them before they get pulled. (Most of the fancam stuff isn't worth it.) "Scream for Me" (ending duel you will not believe): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tquWY3HHb6U.html "Empty Daydream" (starts soft, then blasts off; another side to Miyako's endless talent): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lXh_uMM94jU.html "Epilogue" (A ballad, and a gorgeous one): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QgKIoz88-8A.html "Thunder Vengeance" (Thrash, smokes Metallica): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yWE7PqCpGi4.html "Swan Song" (Ending will melt your brain for another reason): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QUGCQ1FTB0g.html "We the United" (Dual shred with harmonies): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i9OEaVapKcE.html Have fun! I'm subscribing to see what you do with these!

Miyako ( dean guitar) on twitter actually retweeted a clip from your video, you have been noticed

Next song Sign Of Deliverance 🤘🤘

They sound A LOT like a band I used to listen to back in the day named Sonata Arctica. Im guessing thats one of their influences for sure. Heres the link to it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5yszaOJHPjA.html

Good reaction bro, you are already reacted two power metal songs from them. here is another genre from Lovebites, if you want to react them again: thrash metal: thunder vengeance, the hammer of wrath Hardrock: dancing with the devil metal: raise some hell ballad: epilogue *Avoid their live from Bloodstock festival.. because audio mix is bad

Those guitar & bass stances are on point & the drummer crushing it & not to mention there all in heels wearing all white as usual!!!!!! OMG the singer, enough said!!!!!! Yes folks LOVE DOES BITE, BUT IN A GOOD WAY.......

Lovebites is breathtaking for every sense a human body have! Lovebites 7 days in a row? ;-)

Give SHADOWMAKER, SWAN SONG or THUNDER VENGEANCE a try. I'm sure you'll love them all.

Must protect Japan at all cost!!! Music Japan is the best on the planet ever!!!!! Love Lovebites! Love Japan!

"6min solo" fr 😂😂

Another great reaction. Lovebites are very professional in their live shows. The songs you hear live are exactly like the way they recorded it on CD. Nothing is changed or slower or faster on their songs. You should check their CD "Electric Pentagram", it's on Itunes. If you like to check out another live video, check out "Thunder Vengeance". I've posted the link for you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yWE7PqCpGi4.html

Check out the live version of 'Scream for Me and 'Thunder Vengance''. Lovebites are better live heavier and faster than their studio recordings. Both guitarists started learning the guitar quite late in life. Midori, the one on the left started at twenty and Miyako, the one on the right at eighteen. They are now in their late twenties.

Lyrics: Look at the 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 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 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

Like I said, they are the best female metalband on earth, try some more songs of this concert.

The rock that doesn't roll :-) Or brides maids playing metal. They wear the white outfits to stand out on stage. Totally inspirational idea. Another reaction channel, called them Disney Princesses, as his ten year old daughter thought that is what they are :-)

After 7 years of existence in Japan, it was about time that Lovebites were introduced to the rest of the world. 😂 To me, there are just 2 questions left: "What do they put in the water in Japan?", and >>Is there a word for "(having a) *break* " in the Japanese language?

Yeah mate they are so skilled. Musicianship between them is a unmegerable. Also they've got a good relationship as well. So if you want to see more guitarist dwelling have a look the songs- Signs of deliverance, We the United, Scream for me. About the energy check the song Rise some hell, a and not in the last place don't forget the open show song Thunder vengeance. I'm already curious to see your reaction to them. Stay safe and stay metal.

Best band in the world right now!......period! Certainly the most talented.

One more song by them you need to check is Swan Song (preferably live version)

This Band is awesome. Every Titel are amazing. Watch RISING. IT is so good. Greetings from Germany..

"We are LOVEBITES and we play Heavy Metal"

Great reaction!! Swan song - live !! please.

Love lovebites so much thanks to react bro, next Lovebites "The Crusade"

Don't ya think it's time for another LOVEBITES reaction? Or perhaps UNLUCKY MORPHEUS' Angreifer? 😁

Mind blown. Replacement mind en route. Further replacements on auto-order. Lovebites is real. No guests in this band. Even their road crew has to be top notch. One thing I note is Midori, Miho and Miyako all step up to their pedal boards and step to change pedals themselves. These ladies are professional and know their craft from top to bottom. You should do Thunder Vengeance Live, We the United and Swan Song. The latter two you get Miyako on piano.

Try Thunder Vengeance live video next! As for another band, I guess you'll like Unlucky Morpheus. They have some of the best musicians from Japan at the moment and a legendary metal singer (Fuki)! You can start with "Knight of Sword" official live video.

Next "epilogue" .. Feel the deference kind of their epic rock ballad.

Next reaction, this please :) 【LOVEBITES】MIYAKO－Piano Solo (Revolutionary Etude) Swan song ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_TM1nSP7odQ.html

You notice when they sneak in the tapping, watch the right hand three-finger taps.. Been playing for 30 years and I dont even have that dexterity to do that...

I ve been following them for few months.. Not really rock or metal lover.. First time like all the songs from this group.. Damn good image and live show..

Nice reaction. Where have you been with them? So many songs they have and you left them behind. You need to revisit them.

Swan Song & Epilogue (both live) should be next on your list.

and they make it look so effortless

Swan song please - lovebites. I can't wait to see your reaction about that song

La música de love bite es salvaje y fuerte amo a estas damas .

First time i saw this i dont said holly war i said holy shit . Fun fact the drummer haruna has only 4'8" (1,45m ) but her nickname is " the energyzer bunny " imagine why ?

Thunder Vengeance live is definitely another great track from them to look up!

I recommend Thunder Vengeance live (same concert,opening song) it’s really heavy... I dare you lol

Now listen to Holy War by Thy Art Is Murder

◼️6:08 ◼️ ◼️

Finley a live one time to blow his mind

Did you catch Miho's bass finger tapping shred at 1:17? Something I haven't seen before. Damn, wish I could play like that...

Listen to the bass rattle... Steve Harris approves

Everything I love is packed🤘

2nd only to NEMOPHILA matey!! you MUST check them out..."DISSENSION". Thank me later.

You should try WE THE UNITED .great reactjon sir
