This is the song that propelled the band to garner a lot more international attention. You should check out a LIVE version of this track where the ladies killed it !
You keep saying this and it is not true, they were not quite known and the ones who were asked to check out hated Lovebites and talked trash about Asami's voice, what propelled them more was the release of Electric Pentagram, and yet they are still not very much liked because these ladies are far better than all of their favorite bands.
I’d certainly never heard of them before “Electric Pentagram,” but I was introduced to LB and all other Japanese music by BAND-MAID. Aside from that, I was aware of but didn’t look into Babymetal, and while Shonin Knife was once played on MTV, I’ve never liked SK.
@@salsaucedo It's a fact that the band has attracted a lot more international attention after Shadowmaker. 'Attention' in this case can be both positive and negative attention from the public. I don't disagree that Electric Pentagram propelled them even further in terms of the world taking notice, that naturally happens with each new iteration of an EP and LP.
LOVEBITES - Shadowmaker lyrics: Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe But still I go on, my hunger is strong Hoping that someone will grab my hand Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world Maybe it's too late？ No one can save me From all of the darkness and solitude Cry, like shadows of the night I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive Despite going through this hell Cause still my heart has hope No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart Reckless and fast, how long will I last？ Dancing like puppets, I'm empty inside Fighting the fear, and grieving the dear Hoping that someday I'll be repaid Only my echoing heartbeats can prove that I'm here Am I all alone？ Even a faint light is too bright for me, I can't see a thing Hide, in shadows I reside I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go In desolated land knowing no escape But still I wish to live Just waiting for a somebody to notice me Before I fall down to depths of the abyss SOLO: midori / mi-ya / both / miya Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe But still I go on, my hunger is strong Hoping that someone will grab my hand Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world Maybe it's too late？ No one can save me from solitude Cry, like shadows of the night I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go In desolated land knowing no escape But still I wish to live Just waiting for a somebody to notice me Before I fall down to depths of the abyss Like shadows of the night I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive Despite going through this hell Cause still my heart has hope No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) album: Awakening From Abyss 10/25/2017
Thank you for coming back to Lovebites. Japanese metal is on an incredible roll, especially the women, who are kicking ass on an epic scale. Another great band you should check out, if you haven’t already, is Bridear. Founded in 2011, they were in the second wave of all-female heavy-metal bands. They love to go hard and heavy. They have the classic twin-lead attack and technical rhythm section. Their tiny bassist even throws in some growls at key moments. I’m posting this now because they’re scheduled to release their new album on June 28, and it’s an absolute banger. To get ready, check out “Ignite” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C0-_u9SYspE.html This is a recent live performance of one of their older songs. It gives you a good idea of their sound. There is also a new video coming-don't miss the chance to jump on it!
Lovebites had 'it' right from the start. You can hear their ability even on rough fan video shot at live venues during their visits to Europe and the UK back in 2018/9. One of my top all time favourite bands.
First song / video I heard / saw from them...nearly 3yrs ago. Hooked ever since. Listen to them daily, driving wife n kids nuts. 😂 Keep it going man. Try Above the Black Sea live 2019. Another banger with a Miyako Magic intro. 🤘

😂 I don’t know why but it cracked me up when you said “They all have such nice hair.” As a bald guy myself, that was too funny! At 52yrs old, I miss my hair! Great reaction! These ladies are my absolute favorites now! This is an absolute banger, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of their songs. But i would love to see a reaction to MDO live… It’s a ❤️🐺🌎🤘🏼
The 1st song for many of the Wolfpack (fanbase) from 2017. It is a better experience LIVE and they have gotten better over the years, think about that for a minute!!! Midori in her dark hair before her current Amazonian phase...LOL. However, the M&M show is on full display here and they have driven each other to be better and chase perfection relentlessly in their performances.
