A 14-solo shredfest ! Asami (lead vocalist) has a broad and powerful mezzo-soprano range, and she has extremely good diaphragm & breath control. She doesn't "scream" but belts when necessary.
Seen them last week in London, a lot smaller than this so it felt a bit more intimate, I was not at the front, but about 5 or 6 rows back which was an OK spot to be. They sound as good live as they do on video, only better because the atmosphere they give the room is fantastic. I'd recommend you re watch after you react, when you watch straight through they will sound even better 🤘🎸🎤🎹🥁🐺🇬🇧
They just played the first leg of their 2024 world tour playing festivals and club dates across Europe. I managed to see them at The Garage in London exactly a week ago. It was raw and in our faces and absolutely fantastic. There are a few fan cam videos posted here on RU-vid that are well worth checking out. They really are so good live.
They ALWAYS sing in English. The lone exception is the original debut EP version of "Bravehearted," which was re-recorded in English for the debut full album.
some people catch midori's little stumble with asami - others don't. but hardly anyone ever mentions how she just smiles the whole thing off and never misses a note. professional musician at her finest. taylor swift playing to 100 thousand ? shows you how clueless a lot of americans are to music. LOVEBITES deserves much bigger crowds. but the lucky ones will see them on their current tour in smaller venues up close and personal as opposed to some speck on a stage 1/4 of a mile away.
Welcome to Lovebites, the Wolfpack, Lovebites fans around the world will be along to give you information and recommendations. Lovebites are a Japanese metal band, formed in 2016 by Miho, Bass, and Haruna, Drums, who are former members of Destrose, a band that broke up in 2015. They take much of their influence from the 1970's and 80's British and European bands such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Metallica. Miho left the band in 2021 for personal reasons. The current members are, Asami, Vocals and Piano. She trained in Ballet Dancing and before Lovebites was a R&B singer. She writes many of the lyrics and sings in English, not easy for a native Japanese speaker. Midori, Guitar. The blond 'Amazon Warrior' who is also a body builder. Miyako, Guitar, Piano and Keyboards. the 'serious' one with long black hair. She is a classically trained pianist who writes much of the music, often incorporating classical themes into her compositions.. Both Guitarists play lead, swapping lead and rhythm as required. They play amazingly good harmonised dual solos. Fami, Bass. The 'new girl', recruited as replacement for Miho in late 2022 when she was 20 years old and still at university, playing her first live show with the band in March 2023. She has her own YT channel that has nearly 700,000 subs. Check out her 'Alien Alien' Slap Bass cover from when she was about 16. Haruna, Drums. The 'Little BIG Engine'. a tiny lady, 1.45 meters tall, who is the power house that drives the band. I saw Lovebites live in London recently, and watched Haruna in awe. She plays fast and precisely throughout concerts that can be up to near 2 hours long. If you enjoyed this song, here are a few recommendations for further listening. Holy War, Thunder Vengeance, M.D.O. , Break The Wall, Swan Song with the Chopin introduction played by Miyako, Winds of Transylvania (written for a Japanese Anime series VLADLOVE) Frozen Serenade, Edge of the World, Epilogue. There are many more I could suggest, but this should give you an idea of their range. The Wolfpack will have more suggestions. I would suggest watching live performances wherever possible. The ladies really shine on stage. I have been to London twice recently to see them during their just concluded European tour, and am so glad I did. I have been a fan of Rock and Metal music right from the beginning with bands like Sabbath and Deep Purple, and Lovebites are amongst the best I have ever seen. Enjoy your journey 🐺
This live music venue, which closed in September 2020, was a medium-sized facility with a combined capacity of approximately 1,300 people on the first and second floors.Of course, this venue was packed on the day of the event.
LOVEBITES - Scream For Me lyrics: SOLO: miho SOLO: miyako Communication breaking up and I can't figure it out Baffled, So out of touch with what's to come All because I just can't seem to get through to you We wait Debate Our fate Trying to escape from all the deceptive rules I've had enough So what's the way for us to get it? Before you go shoot me down Now's the time to come together Hear me out Cause what I think What I'm thinking about is If we let it take forever we just may lose it all "So what I think What I've been thinking's I just want to be me again" We gotta let go and just open up our heart and minds a little more Let go Take a step into a new tomorrow The panic fuze is burning and the world's on edge So you gotta let your soul be free - Panic fuzed me! SOLO: midori I wonder what you see whenever you're here standing in front of me What would it take to make a break From running in circles that only aggravate? Inside we hide but why? Genuine perspective could be the greatest gift we ever share I care enough to talk about it Come on Please don't shoot me down Now's the time to come together Hear me out Cause what I think What I'm thinking about is If we let it take forever we just may lose it all So what I think What I've been thinking's I just want to be me again We gotta let go and just open up our heart and minds a little more Let go Take a step into a new tomorrow The panic fuze is burning and the world's on edge So you gotta let your soul be free, yeah Let go and just open up our heart and minds a little more Let go Take a step into a new tomorrow The panic fuze is burning and the world's on edge So you gotta let your soul be free SOLO: midori / miyako We gotta let go and just open up our heart and minds a little more Let go Take a step into a new tomorrow The panic fuze is burning and the world's on edge So you gotta let your soul be free, yeah We gotta let go and just open up our heart and minds a little more Let go Take a step into a new tomorrow The panic fuze is burning and the world's on edge So you gotta let your soul be free - panic fused me! SOLO: miyako / midori / miyako / midori / miyako / midori / miyako / midori / miyako / midori ----- lyrics: Dr U music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) album: The LOVEBITES EP 05/25/2017 & Awakening From Abyss 10/25/2017
The only song they sang in Japanese was The Lovebites EP version of Harunas Bravehearted which when all 4 songs got added to Awakening from the Abyss 1st full album Asami translated the Awakened version of Bravehearted to English
This performance has always been, and always will be, one of my absolute favorites from 'The White Wolves'. It's the bass & drum lines under all those solo's that do it for me, as much as the solo's themselves. So many people miss Midori's little stumble. well spotted. But I also love Asami's little giggle, while still singing, when she turns around & sees Midori still hopping.
A new EP and also a Blu-ray will be released on August 28. „LOVEBITES EP II“ will also contain a re-recording of the debut „LOVEBITES EP“ in a limited edition „Memorial of the Warrior Souls“ is the recording of last years paid livestream which features 7 live versions from „Judgement Day“ album including „Soldier stands solitarily“
At least in Japan the sound quality is very good even in smaller venues... Lovebites always tour the same mid-size venues because of their excellent acoustics (like the Zepps or Tokyo Garden Hall). Live sound engineering in Japan has a long rep for quality, some live recordings are legendary (like Casiopea's Mint Jams). Asami always ask the crowd to add their share of decibels during choruses, and raise hell they do (especially if you're a "Lovebites Inc. Employee", one of their official fans. They're granted the audience front and they're kinda the Spartan Royal Guard of Lovebites). Dunno if they feel more pressure playing in Japan, but their concerts are good enough for live recording... the energy, the expectation and the delivery are a bit different from overseas legs. The fans and the band get very emotional, it's quite a cathartic experience.🤘🐺🤘
