As you know, My videos are not monetized. If you'd like to support this channel you can buy me a cup of coffee here: www.buymeacoff...
Thanks!
I want to thank everyone who has supported this channel and been so encouraging. What I thought of as a way of connecting with my family and friends over music has been rewarding in so many ways. After only 8 weeks we reached 1,000 subs this weekend and it's all due to you and these great bands and musicians that are so deserving of our support. I will continue to do the very best I can for You and for Them in the future. Thank you.
Let's introduce you to a new Japanese band who debuted this year - EAST OF EDEN. "East Of Eden - Evolve [Extended Version] (Music Video)". I think you'll like them. 😉 💜
Miyako composed this song...
Did you see Miyako posting a sign "sorry Haruna and Asami !" 😂😂
I have heard she apologized at an interview as well. lol. I'll bet there were some exhausting practice sessions around THAT song!
My favorite LOVEBITES song!
Fastest LOVEBITES song ever! 🎸🔥🎸🔥🤘
If you can believe it Midori's guitar is technically Reindeer Blue, looks purple to me 😅
This is from a listening party they did here on RUclips right before their newest album Judgement Day was released.
It was fantastic to watch the ladies and listen to all the new songs for the first time! 🤘🐺🤘
Damndest Blue I've ever seen! lol! Thanks for the info!
'English boards' meant that the white boards that they wrote on in Japanese were translated. In this version the English translation was in coloured text which sometimes made it hard to see. In the case of Haruna's board it was translated to "attention drums" which you can see bottom left. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I lost interest in metal way back. I like Lovebites, but this song blows me away. It's everything that I wanted metal to be. Thanks for educating me.
This is the version of SSS that I spoke of, but the version I saw showed the English translations of the signs. They were in the margins above the ladies.
Thank you for clarifying that for me! This was a cool idea on the ladies part. Puts a personal stamp on the album that fans can relate to!
195 beats per minute of pure Lovebites adrenaline!!!
They did a live stream reaction to all the songs on the Judgement Day album. From what I have seen, I believe this is the only song where all the ladies are active and interacting with each other from beginning to end. This song rocks and for me.....the best song on the album. But the whole album is awesome from beginning to end.
I will seek out that livestream. Thanks!
Thank you for following LOVEBITES at all times.
Please keep up the good work LOVEBITES.
【The following is from an interview with LOVEBITES for a magazine project】
[Miyako(G Key and Piano Black hair)]
As for "Soldier Stands Solitarily", I had a demo of it when I was working on the "Glory, Glory, to the World" EP (2021).
It had a completely different shape than this one, except for the chorus.
The chorus was punchy and had a good melody, so I wasn't satisfied with it as it was.
This time, I restructured it and reincarnated it.
In Miyako's mind, she thought the BPM was too fast, so Miyako said in her mind to Haruna(Dr), "I'm sorry," "If you lower this BPM, it will feel different!" she said.
So in Miyako's mind, Miyako said, "Haruna can play at this BPM," and"If you don't play like this, it won't sound cool!"
With that in mind, Miyako entered the bass line into the software.
Japanese women and children hold up the index fingers of both hands and place them on either side of their head in a "demon" or "ogre" pose, making a "I'm so angry!" and make a kawaii expression.
"Demon" or "ogre" is the Japanese word for "oni".("oni"="鬼"👹).
At an album presentation at her home, Miyako said, "Asami & Haruna, I'm sorry! and wrote it down and projected it on the screen.
The belt Miyako requested for Asami was too high and the BPM Miyako requested for Haruna was too fast, so I think Miyako lovingly apologized to Asami and Haruna with a handwritten message panel on the screen.
contemplate the power of the metal goddesses and above all the power of Haruna, she looks so fragile but the sound that comes out of that drum is impressive 🤘🐺❤🐺🤘
SSS is my second favourite song on the "Judgement Day" album, just behind "Dissonance".
Amazing song! Best on the new album imho. Really entertaining video too.
Midori(G)
[ESP FRX E-II SW Solid Body Snow White]
The bridge and other metal parts were replaced with gold.
Pickups were replaced with EMG "88".
The above guitar has been used by Midori since the days of her former band "激情★めたりっちぇ" and was also used when she joined LOVEBITES.
It is also used in the music videos and live performances of "Don't Bite The Dust," "The Crusade," "The Shadowmaker," and "Rising.
[ESP E-II Horizon FR QM Reindeer Blue].
The above guitar has been used mainly in past live performances and music videos (such as "Glory to the World").
The original pickups were replaced with silver humbuckers, which were replaced with gold humbuckers a few years ago.
Other metal parts were also replaced with gold, Midori's favorite color.
Pickups are Seymour Duncan, with an SH-1n in the front and an SH-15 in the rear.
[ESP E-II Horizon FR QM Purple].
Midori's guitar looks "purple" in the live video.
Original color not in the catalog.
The quilted maple grain is beautifully visible through the purple see-through paint.
Pickups were replaced with gold humbuckers.
Pickups are Seymour Duncan, SH-1n '59 model in the front and SH-15 Alternative 8 in the rear.
Other metal parts were also changed to gold.
[ESP E-II Horizon FR Black].
This guitar is mainly used for recording.
Sometimes used for live performance depending on the song.
For Drop D tuning, used in "Bravehearted," "Stand And Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)," "Shadowmaker," "Break The Wall," "Judgement Day," and "Glory To The World". Black HORIZON used in "Bravehearted", "Stand And Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)", "Break The Wall", "Judgement Day", "Glory To The World", etc.
It has almost the same specs as the above purple model, but a different front pickup (Seymour Duncan Sentient) was selected.
Pickups are Seymour Duncan, Sentient in the front and SH-15 in the rear.
Miyako(G-Key and Piano Black hair)
I have attached the material of Miyako's magic modified DEAN guitar.
[V Select Flame Maple Floyd PG Trans Red MYK]
Miyako's DEAN Signatur Guitar (red V-shaped guitar) replaced with Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker Set Gold pickups and a custom pickguard.
Its custom pickguard is slightly different in shape and size from those for general sale use.
Handmade by artisans.
[Dean Icon USA Flame Top -Faded Denim]
USA Icon is a passive pickup converted to an active pickup.
Miyako's DEAN Guitar replaced with Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker Set Nickel pickups.
The rear pickup has been replaced with an Ovaltone ROSSO-鵺-NUE DEVICE (red) and the front pickup with an Ovaltone NERO-鵺-NUE DEVICE (black) condenser.
[Gibson Korina Fling V]
Miyako bought a new guitar.
Miyako replaced the pickguard with a white one of her choice.
Approximately $9,500 at current rate.
[infinite Trad fullsize ST]
spec.
Body Light Ash 1P
Neck & Finger Board Rodsted Flame Maple
PU Bare Knuckle Apach set
JASCAR stainless steel frets
Color Ice Metallic Blue
Miyako like wood grain, so this guitar is also painted in Ice Metallic Blue with a semi-open bore finish using nitro-cellulose lacquer that brings out the grain of the wood.
Kogiku, a traditional construction method with a history of more than 1,000 years, is a technique in which three mortises and grooves (convexes and concave) are placed on top of each other.
This construction method is used for the neck and body of the guitar.
The "Kogiku Logic" is the use of this construction method for the neck and body of a guitar.
This is all great info! Thank you so very much!
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺❤❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great reaction as usual and hope you have had a fun family trip ! I mentioned in my previous comment that there's no OFFICIAL MV or LIVE video yet for this song. What we have are a couple of bootleg LIVE versions floating around YT. These are derived from the LIVE stream (which is why it's pixelated) of the Tokyo leg of the band's recently concluded "Judgement Day" tour in Japan when they played SSS LIVE. Not sure which one you saw, but there's one bootleg version which has the LIVE stream video but the person who uploaded it overlayed the studio audio track on top of it and the audio wasn't from the concert. BTW, SSS is currently Lovebites' fastest track, clocking at 195 bpm.
Thanks for clarifying what I was looking at! I will avoid it. 195bpm. No wonder she was apologizing for it! lol.
This is what I was referring to in my comment re respecting the band’s wishes a couple of videos ago. SSS was only released on February 22nd. It was first played live in Fukuoka almost exactly 6 months later (August 26th). I saw it live 3 times on the tour and I traveled back to Tokyo to watch the live-streamed concert *from* Tokyo for which I didn’t have a ticket to the venue. It was a pay to view event in which those who purchased it agreed (by accepting the terms) that it would not be rebroadcast in any form. The video was available for a whole week to watch as many times as you liked until it was taken down. I personally have reported every instance where the upload was taken from the livestream. Whether or not the channel that uploaded it thinks they are supporting the band, they are not supporting the band or their management’s wishes, nor are they considering those who did pay to watch it. It’s piracy, plain and simple. The conditions under which whoever uploaded the video first obtained it have been breached. Theft.
This is proof that Miyako can be demonstrative and exuberant
Don’t forget both Miyako and Fami have their own uTube channels, so there’s plenty of “extra” Lovebites material you can consider reviewing/reacting to 👍
Great point! Thanks!
Awesome song, and yes the little signs are all worth taking note of! You'll get even more out of your next listen! Cheers!
Rock on!
Harunas sign said focus on drums.
「ドラムに注目!!」
[Doramu ni chūmoku !! ]
"Pay attention to the drums! !"
Thank you!
This video was part of the bands live stream album listening party on their RUclips channel (for a limited time) they usually do a free live steam of their concerts for free on their channel just before it’s officially released on DVD and Bluray (so there’s a good possibility that they will post knocking at heaven’s gate part 2 for a limited time on their RUclips channel 🤞as for the video that was described by a subscriber for the English lyrics on the board it was the same stream as this video but has all the English subtitles of what the ladies were putting on their white boards for the audience to know what they are saying and as for Haruna’s messages she was saying “Fast” during the chorus part and to focus on her drums (as you guessed right). As for the “bootleg version” (streamed live 2023 at the end of the their Japanese tour) of the song I would HIGHLY recommend watching it on your own time as compared to a reaction because some fans get pretty nasty when reactors react to it and like to threaten them with reporting them to RUclips and LOVEBITES record label
Thanks for the info!
There are 2 live versions currently on RUclips, both from the same show that was available by a stream, 1 is the video from the show but uses the studio audio, it is an higher quality visually, the other one uses both live video and sound but is of a lower quality as it was encoded differently. Since they haven't been taken down on RUclips, that means Victor Entertainment decided to do nothing and just claim them to get the ad revenue.
Getting a video claimed is what I expect from any reaction video as I do think the ad revenue should go to the artist. 1 way to see if you might get troubles with a reaction is to upload it to RUclips but not publish it right away, it will tell you if the video is claimed, blocked or partially blocked and that is usually within a few minutes of finishing the upload but some lesser known songs can take up to a few days. Anything that is either claimed or partially blocked is usually safe to post unless 1 day, an executive decides to change his mind. But that can happen to any video even if they didn't claim the ad revenue
🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤🐺❤️🔥🇯🇵🇮🇹
This was a fantastically fun livestream, and pieces of it have popped up on occasion. Yes, the signs are worth figuring out, a lot of them are hilarious. If you find "My Orion" from the same livestream, it will just melt your brain.
Wonderful! I'll check it out! Thanks!!

Congrats to 1.002 views and 1.030 subscriptions!
Thank you!
@@RockCandy-ix3nn You deserve it. It's a joy to follow your reactions!
❤❤❤❤❤❤Great Song 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
the Album Judgement Day has to be listened to from start to finish. It’s not a concept album as such, but it does have a theme. You would not do your ongoing discovery of their music any harm by doing a little research, even Wikipedia would be sufficient. That way you will understand what you are doing a lot better. For example you posited that this footage might have been during Covid. The fact Fami is visible means that it cannot be more than twelve months old. Just trying to help because we sit here knowing that what you are asking is easily answered.
Thanks for your reaction, amazing song. Just to say there is video from live concert posted by zens, it's better sounding than the others. You can try if you want. There you can see actually how the ladies ripped off the song.
Ok. I'll check it out. Thanks!
Lovebites does fast too..🤘👍
Hahahahahahaha!!! alright. thanks for letting me know!
Asami always wears a blonde wig for the shows, you've only covered half of their catalog still have 30+ songs and maybe 3 covers
I did not know she wore a wig, interesting, I like the blue contact lenses she uses, makes her look so different. Good looking woman no matter what she does.
@@rodhamm8484 Yes indeed
〇 Top of head wig
✕ Full wig
[Live at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020]
[2021 LIVE in Tokyo] LIVE & Music Video
When doing hairstyles such as “Glory To The World”,
I think she was wearing a partial wig.
