    Audience restrictions limited due to covid rules, Miyako was four and a half months pregnant, and still they bite better than most, these ladies have no rivals, they are their own unique genre. And apart from the musical perfection throughout, Asami's vocals are next to none which is enhanced with the mesmerising presence on stage she projects. I concur with you, 10/10 🤘🎤🎸🎹🥁🐺

    LOVEBITES are not just superb musicians, they've distinguished themselves as exceptional songwriters. This is heavily influenced by their classically-trained background and their deep respect for the global metal tradition.
    They've covered less than a handful if songs like Judas Priest's Painkiller and Helloween's Eagle Fly Free. Their classically-trained pianist Miyako covered piano interpretations (EP and recent piano recital) of songs by Metallica, Deep Purple, Gary Moore, Yngwie Malmsteen.
    What further sets LOVEBITES apart from even the best of Japanese rock/metal bands is their decision to write and sing in English - a daunting task for native Japanese speakers (hence why few take on this challenge).
    When you delve deeper in their catalog, and when really intrigued me was that they don't just write and sing English lyrics, they write meaningful lyrics that often tackle deep personal and global themes that typically motivate and inspire ... and yet flow with their music (let that sink in ... Not easy!). If you're familiar with Japanese culture which puts a premium on conformity, LOVEBITES approach to their lyrics is not the norm.

      I completely agree with you. 👍LOVEBITES also recorded 'Love Bites (So Do I)', a cover of the HALESTORM song. This cover was included in the Life Album 'Invitation to the Theater - Live in Tokyo 2019' (2CD, released: January 2020)

    Love this song! A brutal thrash yet melodic song. If this came out in the 80s, would've been an all time classic. It is a classic now for me! Great reaction and look forward to more! I think you're ready for Swan song w/Chopin intro live 2020 and A Frozen Serenade live 2021. Both of these PERFORMANCES set them apart and above all other heavy metal bands. Two 10s...LOVE IT!!🤘

    That was a great reaction! The quality of your videos is simply amazing. It’s always more pleasant to watch your favorite videos with people if the quality of the video is good.
    This is their original song. The music for this song was composed by Miyako and the lyrics by Asami. Almost all the music is written by the band members. And they also have several covers.
    And I think this song is my favorite. Although with Lovebites this is debatable, because every song you listen to becomes your favorite.
    If you want to listen another thrash song from Lovebites, you can try their song "Break the wall". But if you want something special, please, watch their live video "Swan song with Chopin Intro" (yes, it must be with Chopin intro). Both of these videos are not on their official RUclips channel, but you can easily find them on RUclips by name.
    Thank you for the reaction! More Lovebites on the channel!

    These ladies were phenomenal, full of joy with what they were doing. Haruna playing thrash beat with a smile..it's nothing 🤭. Miho compact bass line. M&M mind boggling duet solo. Asami high energy voice. They're packed of awesomeness 👍🤘

  • @rainerzufall42
    @rainerzufall42 Год назад +24

    The whole band is writing these songs (including a sixth songwriter, Mao). The three usual covers are listed in the checklist: "Eagle Fly Free" (Helloween), "Love Bites (So Do I)" (Halestorm), "Painkiller" (Judas Priest). Former bassist Miho wrote a lot of the (more thrashy) songs, but Miyako wrote almost half of the songs, while Asami did most of the lyrics in English. Drummer Haruna wrote the only Japanese song "Bravehearted" for their first EP, which was later re-released on their first album with English lyrics.

The main poets are Asami (#1) and Miho (#2). The main composer is Miyako. She wrote about 50% of LOVEBITES music

    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
    SOLO: midori / miyako / both
    The blue moon colors blaze
    Stabbing myself with the thunder
    The predetermined imitation
    An emotionless and fearless smile
    SOLO: miyako
    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

    In my comment on the original videoclip, I wrote "On a quality scale from 1 to 10, Lovebites play on 11!" The studio version of this song is definitely my favourite song on "Electric Pentagram" and I think this live version is at least as good. Being an old school Thrash Metal fan, I'd put this song in my top 3 songs by Lovebites, together with the live version of "Break the Wall" from 2020 and "The Hammer of Wrath", though thinking about "Dissonance" and "Soldier Stands Solitarily" from their current album, I will have to solve the conundrum how to squeeze 5 songs into a top 3. I might as well say it's a draw between all five songs and put them all on no. 1.

  • @evilvolts

    The "E" Trilogy is a great set of songs "Edge of the World", Empty Daydream, and Epilogue (Probably will find the Epilogue version with "Don't Bite The Dust")

    If you like thrash, then you need to watch "Break the Wall" from their 2020 tour. If you close your eyes, you would swear it was Slayer in the beginning. And Miyako's Gary Moore inspired guitar solo is a thing of beauty. Just a suggestion. I would love to see what you think of it. FYI... Miyako (the dark haired guitarist) wrote and arranged the music and Asami (the vocalist) wrote the lyrics for this song. Take care!

    Set the World on Fire music was Miyako (stage left guitar) and lyrics by Asami.
    Saw several posts on X by Lovebites, Asami, Haruna and Midori. They had just watched a Band-Maid concert and were so excited and had so much fun. These girls are all friends and friendly rivals. You would love Band-Maid. Most fun concert I have ever seen. Band-Maid Domination live at Line Cube Shibuya 2020. That will open a whole lot of parallel content for your channel.

    Almost all of Lovebites' earlier thrash songs were written by Miho Rosana (lyrics) and Maho/Miho (music). However, this song was composed by Miyako (music) and Asami (lyrics). The women have proven with the new album that they can write and play great thrash songs without Miho Rosana. You have to be fair and say: Miyako and Asami: You have convinced.

  • @pepsiman990
    @pepsiman990 Год назад +4

    As I understand it, Miyako is the primary song writer and Asami is the primary lyricist. That does not mean that the other members don't write, I believe that Glory to The World was written by Midori and other members have taken the writing seat from time to time and/or collaborated on songs.
