"Bravehearted" was written by Haruna (drums) for her former group "Destrose" (disbanded in 2015, bassist Miho was also a former member), but was not adopted at the time. When LOVEBITES was formed, they made a demo CD containing this song and distributed it to people in the music industry. This CD led to their major label debut with the mini-album "LOVEBITES EP" only six months after their first live performance. This song is currently the only song Haruna has written and the only song with Japanese lyrics. (It was changed to English lyrics and re-recorded on the first full album.)
the discontinued cd by DESTROSE has been getting advertised at RIDICULOUS prices on ebay and other sites. i have seen 600 u.s, dollars as a price for used copies in the last couple of years. but persistence pays - i just found the complete flying cat recordings of the 3 DESTROSE cd's and the dvd of the shibuya o west concert in one package from cd japan. the price is very reasonable at 81 bucks including freight. ordered it yesterday and i can't wait till it arrives
LOVEBITES - Bravehearted lyrics: Throw away all the masks that you wear You're not fooling nobody with cheap imitations Don't take it, your heart can see right through it all Turn and face all the fear that you're hiding from Take what you can and turn everything into your own strength Keep pushing forth, all the way Chained to the fear engraved deep inside Memories that will stay, still haunting Even if there is nobody else You must keep the promise of faith Don't you pity yourself for your weakness Without any sacrifice, you can forget all the prayers It's up to you to be your God Drowning into a sea of hopelessness Underneath all the weight and burden If you want to escape destiny Be prepared to burn through the blazing sun Glory to the brave, deserted you may stand But no matter how arduous, be the victorious Prove that your will's the strongest battle cry Go and raise your sword, the war has just begun There is always a way if you know that your heart is true Nothing can stop your soul from breaking free Don't turn your back, no don't make it pretend Fight through the pain until you've reached the end Though dark and bloody, have no worries There will be redemption Finally when the skies rise over you Triumph will be in your heart shining through Forever guiding the way into the light Silently listening to words of Hell and hate Shatters the armour to sway your fragile heart Still it's the only way, refuse to give it up Keep the focus, and you will notice Everything is almost in your grasp Drowning into a sea of hopelessness Underneath all the weight and burden If you want to escape destiny Be prepared to burn through the blazing sun Glory to the brave, deserted you may stand But no matter how arduous, be the victorious Prove that your will's the strongest battle cry Go and raise your sword, the war has just begun There is always a way if you know that your heart is true Nothing can stop your soul from breaking free Don't turn your back, no don't make it pretend Fight through the pain until you've reached the end Though dark and bloody, have no worries There will be redemption Finally when the skies rise over you Triumph will be in your heart shining through Forever guiding the way into the light If you swear to God, you must see it through The power is in your hands ----- lyrics: haruna (translated with asami) music: haruna arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) EP: The LOVEBITES EP 05/24/2017 (Japanese language lyrics) album: Awakening From Abyss 10/25/2017 (English lyrics)
"We are Lovebites and we play Heavy Metal" 🤘🐺🤘This fantastic band always deliver! The upside down cymbals are a type of China cymbals. it's a very loud cymbal that really cuts through a mix, usually these cymbals have a "trashy" sound. In terms of practical use, especially in metal, you can think about them as a harsher type of crash cymbal, also used to do accents! Some smaller effects cymbals are also China. Not all China cymbals are played upside down, there are many different types.
Thanks for your reaction. The person who posted this song on his channel probably meant that Haruna smiles during the concert, sings along and does not get tired of playing the drums throughout the entire concert. The duration of LOVEBITES concerts ranges from approximately 1 hour 40 minutes to 2 hours.

You are right, there will be no lack of options for great LOVEBITES songs. All of them are worth listening, that's very special. It took me some time to hear them all, when I discovered LOVEBITES less than 5 months ago...
Howdy. Cymbals set up side down are mostly chinas. Chinas got curved rims and it's easier to hit the flat part of the rim to make bigger sound when it is up side down. Another case is when you set a splash cymbal on a crush cymbal which is larger than a splash. Haruna does sing a lot but without a microphone. Asami has mentioned in an interview that Haruna was always the first one in the band to memorize lyrics.
@@RockCandy-ix3nn I'm a guitar man, and a drum kit had just a cymbal, a high hat, a snare, a tom tom, and a bass drum in 60s. Nice and simple old time.
Unfortunately, Miyako's signature V is not available to buy. Dean lost a copyright infringement lawsuit with Gibson and they can no longer make the classic V or classic explorer shapes.
I knew Dean had lost the suit but I did not think about it including the V. I said what I said because I have seen some used on Reverb and E-Bay, etc. That explains the price tag. Thanks for the comment.
@@RockCandy-ix3nn Hey! There was 2 sources for Miyako's signature Dean that im aware of. -One was made in the USA and it's more expensive, this is the one she uses Live! (you can tell it has a longer pickguard) -The other was made in Korea and was much cheaper. (it has a smaller pickguard) Sadly after the result of the lawsuit i don't think you can get any of them new, but as you said you might find some online! 🤘😊
