Lovebites can stand toe to toe with any band, male or female. They are next level musicians and have toured with Dragonforce and played every major festival in Europe. Midori, the blond guitarist on the left plays ESP guitars and Kemper amps with Marshall cabs. Miyako, the guitarist on the right plays Dean guitars, Peavey amps (6505+) and Orange cabs. They mostly play old school Thrash and Power Metal....Enjoy the ride!
Lovebites fans rate this as one of their very best pieces. When the record label chose this to promote the live set that has just been released, we all wanted to see what effect it would have on first time reactors. We weren’t disappointed. Yours is no exception. Open mouthed amazement and generous use of the word “fuck” is pretty standard. And if you really want to treat yourselves, get a copy of “Heavy Metal Never Dies”, which this is taken from. Two hours, 18 tracks, every one to this standard. It is the new benchmark by which any live performance must be measured. Loved this reaction.
The Japanese rock/metal scene is just insane with all the incredibly talented players over there right now. This rabbit hole is wide and deep, and just killer! Enjoy the journey!
LOVEBITES is a relatively new metal band formed by leader Miho (base) in 2016 and made a major debut in 2017. Before the pandemic, they mainly performed live in Japan / UK / EU. They have already performed at major metal festivals in each country, including "WACKEN OPEN AIR 2018". In 2019, I participated in the UK tour at the invitation of Dragon Force. They are an adult female metal band with 80's metal and classical music DNA and R & B / Soul voice, defining themselves as "a lone wolf fighting the stereotypes of metal".
I seen them in Edinburgh and Newcastle UK with Dragon Force it was awesome in fact i am still on medication, also was told the drums and guitars have to go for therapy after every gig.
Gentlemen, the Metal Goddesses are Awesome ! M & M, Midori & Miyako on guitar, can shred with anybody. Midori ( blond ) plays ESP & Miyako plays Dean guitars & sometimes breaks out a Les Paul. Haruna, is the 4ft.9 inch dynamo on the drums. Miho is the bassist & founder of the band. Asami is the singing ballerina & writes most of the lyrics, this band is killer & i hope you'll do more. Please react too, Break the Wall😎🎸🎹🥁😎👌
You had a point when you felt a hint of Nightwish, they have the same sound guys from Finland to set up the sound for live concerts. LOVEBITES are amaaazzzzzing. Love from Sweden
congrats for finding them. they´ve got around 50 songs. all good, not even a filler. thanks for the adequate reaction. they deserve much more recognition.
WOLFPACK HERE!!!HOWLING 2 ur coment section..yessss this ladies all monster on their instruments dude!!!hellyeahhh 🤘⚡🔥..welcome 2 the club' broo..great reaction dude,keep the good work👍
The dark haired guitarist (Miyako) is a genius. Would you believe her primary instrument is the Piano, not the guitar. She picked up a guitar at age 18 for fun. And she wrote this song with Miho (the bassist). Yeah. Oh, and she has a university degree on music with Piano as her primary.
Miyako (the Dean guitarist) wrote this song, and she wrote half of their entire catalogs. Now you are intrigued to check them out. Great reaction, guys 🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🧡🐺
yesss, and Asami the lead vocalist wrote most of their lyrics, which has a beautiful,uplifting, and positive meanings. this band is the mix of brutal and beauty🤘
Welcome to the world of LOvebites. If you want to see/hear trade off solos you must check out Lovebites' 'Scream for Me' with fourteen solos. You could also check out 'Break the Wall'. 'The Hammer of Wrath', 'When Destinies Align', 'Winds of Transylvania', 'Glory to the World' and any thing on YT from their concert at Zepp Diver City, Tokyo, 2020 - you won't be disappointed. You should also check out other all female Japanese hard rock/metal bands like Nemophila, Mary's Blood, Aldious, Band Maid, Bridear, Gacharic Spin/Doll$Boxx for starters, there are dozens of other bands which I am sure other people will suggest.
Totally agreed with what you both are saying they are on the level with any band out there nice reaction they're heavy, thrash, and speed metal band and even some ballad songs. 🤘👍
Yes, these ladies are THAT good. Miyako (dark-haired guitarist) is also a concert level pianist and the main composer. Both of these lead guitarists picked up the guitar about a decade ago. Another great all female Japanese band is Bandmaid. They are more on the rock side but are also superb musicians and live performers.
Lovebites have their foundations in the 80th UK metal, bands like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and others. Also shared their like with very fast guitars with Dragonforce (they tour together in the past). Fun fact, in one concert together, Herman Lee appears with a white dress calling to be "the missing member of Lovebites" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mWVwdGi9ixI.html Oh, btw. All the members of Lovebites have dark eyes... and are really small. Sometimes their use color contacts. Really popular in Japan.
Yes my friends you DID just witness greatness. Lovebites is beyond crazy good. They are phenomenal. Their two guitarists go off like that in every song, they are as good as anybody in the business. You guys are Lovebitten. Welcome to the wolfpack. Ignore any haters who don't like the DF comparison, because that is actually a HUGE compliment, even though the wolfpack all agree that Lovebites is better than DF. Now do their song Holy War.
Their experiences, founded in late 2016 and became active in 2017. Both guitarists have about 10 year experiences. The dark haired guitarist is self taught with instruction books, and she owns 2 other Deans and one is her signature, she also has a Gibson and some others including own built ones. The blond guitarist learned at a music school, and she has several ESPs. They compose and writes lyrics of all the songs. Music genres don't mean a thing to them because their style is all the style of Old School metal, and they also play ballads and acoustic pieces as well. They also deeply influenced by romantic era classic such as Rachmaninov, Dovolzark, Chopin, Beethoven. Hence, they have DNA of Old School and Romantic era classic. I'll leave keyboards for your future pleasant surprise. Enjoy. Wolves' Den is vast and bottomless, and your surprise will be endless.
Hi, Thank you for listening to LOVEBITES. First, the origin of their band name. The band name "LOVEBITES" is derived from the song "Love Bites (So Do Eye)" of the American hard rock band "Halestorm". Among their fans, it is also known as the "wolfpack". By the way, although they are Japanese, There are no songs that use Japanese. How the band was formed. On July 18, 2015, when DESTROSE went into hiatus, miho (Ba), who was in charge of the bass at DESTROSE, invited haruna (Dr), She left DESTROSE before and she started forming a new band. The two listened to the song of asami (Vo) sung on the demo tape of a professional composer, contacted them, and asami joined as the third member. On June 15, 2016, the name of the new band of miho and haruna was announced as "LOVEBITES" and the official website was opened. On June 29th, it was announced that midori (Gt) would join and support guitarist mi-ya (miyako) would join. "Miyako" stands on the right side of the stage. And "midori" stands on the left side. The latest information. Miho, the leader and bassist of this band Announced withdrawal from the band on 08.17.2021. Currently the band is temporarily suspended. Her withdrawal is said to be a fatal injury to the band's dissolution, Most expectation is that if they can welcome a new bassist Their activities are expected to resume.
LOVEBITES - Set The World On Fire lyrics: The blue moon colors the blaze Stabbing myself with the thunder The predetermined imitation An emotionless and a fearless smile Flowing blood and crimson blade Devastated resolution Heat haze is waving far away Who’s going to be sacrificed？ ON FIRE Just like a falling flower ON FIRE Until this body rots away Burning down to the Gates of Hell Distorted madness is sneering Incompetent, cowardly fools A pitiful and painful punishment It’s you who will be sacrificed ON FIRE Dressed in an armor of steel ON FIRE If I’m burned again and again I’ll rise up from the Gates of Hell The blue moon colors blaze Stabbing myself with the thunder The predetermined imitation An emotionless and fearless smile Flowing blood and crimson blade Devastated resolution Heat haze is waving far away Who’s going to be sacrificed？ ON FIRE Just like a falling flower ON FIRE Until this body rots away Burning down to the Gates of Hell ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)

Stay safe. Stay Lovebites.
Welcome to the world of wolfpack. Lovebites is the best one metal band right now on the earth. All the musicians on this band is insane and world class talent. Not a gimmick or fake. They effortless. Like the Goddesses. That's a mind blowing reaction by the way. I'm enjoyed. Thank you so much. Next song from them, try they song from live concert again... "Raise some hell" or they Music video "Wind of Transylvania" Once again thank for your great reaction to Lovebites.
Great reaction video dudes. I actually only found out about this band in either January or February because it was the first video recommended, and after just the first video I was a fan. I've loved Metal since the first time I heard it in the mid-80's when I was in Junior High (Ride The Lightning by Metallica and Haunting The Chapel by Slayer were the first two Metal songs I ever heard), and I can honestly say that Lovebites has the potential to be just as big. I love how Lovebites takes the Speed/Thrash Metal sound from the 80's to mid-90's, incorporates the sound from some of the bands from back then such as Slayer and Metallica and Iron Maiden and occasionally even a hint of Bolt Thrower as well as a few others, puts their own style into the mix, and then puts out Metal that gives homage to early Metal while still producing their own unique style. In my opinion, unlike so many of the so-called 'Metal' bands that have come around in the past couple decades, Lovebites not only sets the bar for what Heavy Metal should sound like, Lovebites actually ARE the bar to what Heavy Metal should sound like. And hearing Midori and Miyako trading leads with their contrasting styles of play to me seems like what it might have sounded like if Kerry King and Kirk Hammett had ever played on stage together in their early years. Just my own personal opinion anyway. Again, great reaction video dudes. Oh by the way, you guys just got a new subscriber.
Later on in the concert Midori the blonde has a duet with Miyako the Brunette with the dean where Midori is on her Guitar and Miyako has a Keytar (Keyboard you play like a guitar)
And this is just a song, attending a full concert means leaving the arena in a prey to anxiety about how pumped the diffusion system and the intensity of the music, an experience that if you happen to, you absolutely must do, but with problems they have now, the abandonment of Miho Rosana, the bassist, has created a problem that will not be solved quickly, meanwhile on their official website Miho no longer appears and therefore it is not known when they will be able to reschedule a tour, a song that absolutely must be listened to is "THE CRUSADE" this also presented at the concert they did in England where they also played together with DRAGONFORCE and Herman Li appreciated the event very much.
Yes guys, this is what greatness looks like. Welcome to the world of Lovebites. Your reaction was great. I would say appropriate to the majesty that is this band. Keep it up! Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Well, I typically have a 'rule' that "Mom" set, no 'subbing' on first 'reaction'... but, both of you being so enthusiastic and making such appropriate comments, I 'take' the two of you as two reactions and have sub'd on this first LOVEBITES one, and looking forward to the next. Congratulations on your 'good fortune' to have had someone lead you into the 'rabbit-hole of your dreams'. No bad or 'weak' songs, out of 50. Wide range of styles, between songs, and within songs, blending the 'familiar' with the 'unexpected' over and over again... ALL performances are superb, their LIVE concert releases from Japan are highest quality, "Daughters of the Dawn" 2019 (DotD); "Five of a Kind" 2020 (FoaK); now "Heavy Metal Never Dies" 2021 (HMND) from which "Set The World On Fire" is taken. Their official channel has another "Don't Bite The Dust" from HMND, and "Thunder Vengeance" & "Holy War" from FoaK (Zepp) first 2 songs of the show, while "Break The Wall" is standout and has lyrics embedded. You will find several songs from DotD 2019 (Akasaka) such as (in concert order) "Addicted" "Bravehearted" "The Crusade" "Pledge of the Savior" "Rising" "Scream For Me" "Break The Wall > Shadowmaker" "Above The Black Sea" "Empty Daydream" ["M.D.O."] "Journey To The Otherside" "Edge of the World > We The United" (encore) "Epilogue > Don't Bite The Dust" "Under The Red Sky" (only "M.D.O." is missing video, M.D.O. [LIVE IN TOKYO 2019] is concert audio) Enjoy, and LOVEBITES' Wolf-Pack will be here to enjoy them with you!
NANI?! dual lead guitarist for dual reactors, it wasn't coincidence, it is your destiny to next level heaven of heavy metal!, thank you for giving your time for reacting these phenomenal ladies, they are the real deal of all-female heavy metal band! Midori The Blonde uses ESP, Miyako The Black Haired uses Dean. This is the band with dual lead solos of every songs, you'll always get blown away by this twin guitars! Pls check other song Holy War live at Zepp Diver City Tokyo 2020
This is part of a 2 hr. Concert. 17 more songs. There is no band like this one you'll soon find out. Everything they do is TOPSHELF.🤘 Whatever song you listen to next, put something under your jaw so that it doesn't hit the floor.🤣🤣🤘
They seem to like anime, so I definitely want you to listen to some songs. Winds Of Transylvania [VLADLOVE Version] MUSIC VIDEO ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HsE4Ub_Pjh8.html
Guys, their next songs Dont Bite The Dust same concert, another concert Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020 Raise Some Hell, The Hammer Of Wrath, Break The Wall, Holy War, MV 2021 Glory To The World, Winds Of Transylvania (all songs with crazy solo's) and check also another all female Japanese Metal/Rock Band NEMOPHILA - songs Dissension, Raitei(Thunder), Blooming (live) BANDMAID - live songs 2021 No God, Warning, After Life, Thrill, Manners
I recommend Judgment Day from new album. The Lovebtes's New album took Spotify's heavy metal album chart No.1 and all songs are crazy. And the new live Blu-ray will also be released next month.
Well, it seems you’ve just been severely lovebitten. These women are extremely talented, skillful and versatile great musicians. They really shine in their live performances. Yes, their main influences are Iron Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, Angra, Helloween, Judas Priest, Dragonforce, and even Gary Moore, but they are being developing their unique style. My next suggestions are “Thunder vengeance”, “Hammer of wrath”, “Holy war”, “Break the wall”, “Scream for me” (all live, but avoid Boodstock concert because of bad audio). Lineup: Haruna - Drums Miho - Bass, backing vocals (she recently left the band) Midori - Lead & rhythm guitar, backing vocals Miyako - Lead & rhythm guitar, keyboards, classical piano, backing vocals Asami - Lead vocals, some piano Other excellent all-female Japanese rock bands are Band-Maid and Nemophila.
From left to right Midori ESP purple horizon Miho ESP bass Haruna Pearl drums Sabian cybals Asami lead vocals Miyako Dean usa dimebag. As far as amps goes mid Kemper Mih DarkGlass Miy Peavey Orange.
If I recall right Midori (left) is playing an ESP and Miyako (right) is on her Dean. Their technique for songwriting seems to involve writing things they can't play, and then learning to play them. Great song, fabulous gig!
Sweet watching the realization of greatness lighting up your eyes hehe. Lovebites are easily among the best power rockers on the planet. Lovebites have toured and performed with Dragonforce. Now you need to dive into Band-Maid - Warning. Band-Maid are an impossibly hard rocking maid band and easily among the best hard-rockers on the planet. Hard rock with lots of metal and punk influence.
Hanabie is less well known than Lovebites even in Japan. Hanabie still performs in small venues as part of a group lineups while Lovebites does 1 mans in mid level venues and sells them out. Hopefully Hanabie can garner enough attention while still in uni to start doing their own 1 mans even if they are in smaller venues so they can do their music full time.
It is not even close, in fact. Lovebites have also played huge European music festivals and even toured the UK with DragonForce. But Lovebites have also been around for longer, a far bigger discography and all the members were somewhat established in the music industry from the start.
@@cepho8349 I think some people don't like to admit how big of a leg up Miho's connections were when the group started let alone to get Midori, Miyako, and Asami in the band.
Please do not compare them to any other past, present or future group. They are the LOVEBITES. And they are so much more talented than all the others without wanting to denigrate any group. But there is no photo! And at my age, 70, I saw and heard a lot ! But of this level never.
Amen to that! I've seen all the Biggie's beginning with the unholy Trinity.. I've always wanted to use this cheesy phrase; "I WAS THERE MAN"! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤣😂😅😆😁😄😃😀. The "one in a million" The "once-in-a-lifetime" Are a dime-a-dozen LOVE BITES IS A ONCE
That's a great reaction video, guys. But I beg you: Somehow the video was too quiet for me. I had set the volume control of RU-vid, and my PC to a highest level. Nevertheless, it was too quiet for metal music. When my granny with her budgie Hans Dieter heard ELVIS in 1957 (Saturdays in the bath tub), it was louder than with you here! LOVEBITES: Their gimmick is their ability! The Lovebites motto is: "We're not here to be cute, we're here to be heavy" The white clothes: Lovebites women say: "We wear these clothes because we are women and because we don't want to look like 90% of metal bands in the last 35 years". We hope for more of you to Lovebites : They play different styles, but always hard and fast. Thrash Metal + Power Metal + Speed Metal + Metal Ballads. S u g g e s t i o n s for next reaction V i d e o : LIVE !!! All 3 pieces of music are badass thrash songs at their finest! The Hammer Of Wrath - Zepp Diver City live 2020 Thunder Vengeance - Zepp Diver City live 2020 Break the Wall - Zepp Diver City live 2020
Dragonforce could be that good, the problem they never put in this level of effort, its clear they have talent, but they sound terrible live, like cat being killed on stage bad live. Lovebites is fucking crazy good live which I think speaks magnatudes about their skill level and dedication in comparison to Dragonforce.
I don't hate DragonForce and they seem like really nice people, but their songwriting is certainly a lot less interesting. But again, nice people. We should be thankful that they went on tour with Lovebites and helped getting people to know them.
until a few years ago, reactors often said that lovebites were like dragonforce. sure, dragonforce is good band, but modern reactors don't say it's like dragonforce because it's easy to see that lovebites exceed dragonforce. lovebites is nothing but lovebites.
Well.. react to their music video When Destinies Align.. it has one of the best arranged guitarsolos so far! And it has eng subs as well! When it cames to japanese music we prefer Foxhole before rabbit hole... we can thank Babymetal for that! *-)
Is "vengeance" such a difficult word to pronounce? "American rock"... yeah yeah... And then Nightwish reference, stop there, all the boxes are checked.
I literally just read today Miho’s first encounter with heavy metal was with Nightwish song fantasmic lol She also said they were a huge inspiration to their music so I guess I was on point with that actually 🤪
@@nanibrothers This sound sounds like fast and heavy thrash to me, something that Metallica or Slayer would play. I have heard numerous Night Wish songs but never have I heard one that sounds like thrash or anything like this. You sure you didn't say it sounds like Nightwish because it was a female vocalist?
They do have a few songs that sound more Nightwish-esque. This one not so much. Though there are also much heavier Nightwish songs than people seem to realize. 10th Man Down is one of my favourites.
@@bonered9210 Calm down man, Im a huge lovebites fan and Band-Maid is an awesome rock band, very talented, great muscians, Im not super into Rock but implying they are terrible is a garbage fanboy opinion, this whole PS vs XBOX fanboy shit needs to stop, all of these talented women deserve to be heard. Lovebites plays the music I love, but im not going to look down on any other bands music.
LOVEBITES are without doubt the most polished band in this genre and Miyako and Midori are outstanding, but there is better music...

Nightwish really they don't stand a chance against Lovebites, the vocals alone are in complete contrast to each other Asami is a badass, and floor is just an opera singer in a symphonic band which sucks. Lovebites is not mainstream at all, get your facts straight before you say something you are going to eat later. Mainstream is the crap that the music industry feeds the sheeple disgusting perverted crap, its all about sex drugs and violence that is the meaning of mainstream. Lovebites on the other hand are not popular because of mainstream
I am not sure that I have read more drivel packed into four badly written sentences in my entire life. For you to pick out two minor single word comments in an entire reaction video is rather neurotic. First their mention of Nightwish was very early in the video when Asami first started singing. They aren't the first to compare Asami's vocals to that of Floor Jansen or the great sound and production to that of Nightwish. Not a bad comparison in metal music, especially in combination with the spot on comments that immediately followed. Second the mention of mainstream was in comparing Lovebites with Hanabie. Again, I agree with them. In the world of metal, Lovebites is more mainstream than Hanabie. Lovebites was inspired by the NWOBHM while Hanabie was inspired by the craziness that is Maximum the Hormone. They weren't saying that Lovebites is mainstream in the entire world of music. Your rambling rant about mainstream music wasn't even relevant. Last, your dismissal of Nightwish and Floor Jansen is ridiculous. I understand that not everyone is a fan of symphonic metal (there is a good chance that Miyako is a fan). But to say Nightwish sucks is without rational basis and is, again, pretty neurotic. Describing Floor Jansen as "just an opera singer" is just plain silly. I have been listening to rock and metal for 50 years and I have heard plenty of great female singers. My top two are Ann Wilson and Floor Jansen. No matter how good any other female rock/metal singer is or was, in my opinion they are looking up to those two. Floor Jansen is great in many genres (yes, including opera). Her versatility is unmatched. She has been singing and writing metal music since the age of 17. My gut feeling is that she is more metal than you will ever hope to be.
@@danw6048 The only way Asami is "looking up to" Floor Jansen is because Floor is 6'+ and Asami is 4'10" ! Asami defies physics doing what she does with her voice! & her stage-presence is unsurpassed &:-)
@@dregeye I also think Asami is great and I respect that you think she is better than Floor. When I put Ann Wilson and Floor Jansen at the top of my list, that doesn't mean that they are my favorite female singers of all time. In my high school and college years, Ann Wilson wasn't my favorite - Linda Ronstadt and Stevie Nicks were definitely at the top of my list. It is only looking back that I have tried to make a more objective list and I think that Ann Wilson was the best female rock singer of my generation (Linda, however, is still my favorite). Floor Jansen is the closest I have heard since that matches Ann Wilson. What is amazing is that Ann Wilson is still going strong at age 71. I wouldn't be surprised if in 30 years Floor Jansen is doing the same. Like Linda Ronstadt for me, Asami is probably your favorite. They actually have some similarities - great voices, beauty, and a stage presence that exudes both charisma and kindness. These days I prefer alto voices and Asami sings very well in that alto range. I think some reactors are very unfair to Asami because she sings a bit lower. I would love if Asami released a solo jazz or blues album. Asami has a voice that should last her for many years, maybe also past 70. I will be long gone by then, but hopefully you are still kicking.
@@danw6048 Actually, I didn't say I think Asami is "better than Floor" and I have not heard much at all of Floor's vocal work. I just wanted to make the point of the physical difference, and you 'invited' it with your use of "looking up to". I do think that, with vocalists, it is legitimate to 'note' such drastic physical differences, even at height, Asami is quite slender while Floor is not. Physical mass matters, which brought my "defies physics" which I think is true, you even mention her lower range, and many comment on the fullness of her voice in contrast to many women vocalists, but is still able to reach high notes with fullness, sustain and vibrato. I don't really 'compare' bands and musicians much, and like the term "unsurpassed" as I believe LOVEBITES are, individually and collectively. In 30 years I will be 100. I'd like to think I'll still be 'going' and my recent renewed enthusiasm for drumming and guitar playing might just take me there 'before I know it'! I'm gonna learn some LOVEBITES songs, but I'm not so sure about a 'LOVEBITES tribute band' unless I can find other old men who look good in white dresses!!!!!
@@dregeye I have another 40 years before I reach the century mark. I am guessing Asami is around 30, so I will have to make it to 100 to hear her sing at 70 years old. You are right about Asami's power for such a petite woman. In that way she is like Pat Benatar who was 5 ' at the most and very slender but with a powerful voice and amazing range. I am hoping Asami really is the female Bruce Dickinson and we have a Lovebites masterpiece to look forward to in 2051. As for a Lovebites tribute band, I know there is a really good all female tribute band for Aerosmith, so I say go for it.
