    Thanks for the reaction!
    Before the "Swan Song" was performed "Etude Op.10, No.12" (or "Revolutionary Etude") by the great Polish composer Frederic Chopin, written in 1831 and dedicated to the Polish patriots who raised an uprising (1830-1831) against the Russian Empire, whose troops occupied Poland.
    "Swan song" ( lyrics - Asami , music -Miyako) from the third album LOVEBITES "Electric Pentagram" (2020). For many centuries (starting from Ancient Greece) there is a legend, according to which swans, non-singing, "silent" birds, acquire a voice a few moments before death, and this dying singing of swans is amazingly beautiful.
    "Etude" by F. Chopin and "Swan Song" are dedicated to the warriors who died in battle. Therefore, at the concert, "Etude" and "Swan Song" are played together.
    In an interview given after the release of the "Electric Pentagram" album, Asami (a former ballerina, studied classical ballet for about 16 years before becoming a singer) said that when she wrote the lyrics of the song, she was thinking about the famous ballet P.I. Tchaikovsky "Swan Lake" . During the performance of the song, Asami imitates the Swan (hand movements). And in the final part (piano Miyako), symbolizing the death of the Swan, Asami depicts the dying Swan on stage. Because the camera at the end of the song is focused on Miyako playing the piano, Asami's "death of the Swan" was not captured on video.

    Kel being a classically trained musician herself can definitely see and hear the Vast Musical Theory going on. Its mind boggling how well these women write,play and perform. Believe it or not their live works are preferred too their studio versions because they actually elevate the song 2 fold in a live context. Only a select few bands have ever been able too out perform their studio masterpieces consistently as well as Lovebites effortlessly does. Lovebites hits so many Sweet spots musically and mentally its astounding. Their sound and writing is very familiar for so many world wide its honestly quite impressive. Btw Kel the vocalist Asami's register is very similar too Hearts just more operatic. Thats the sell of the contrast with this band. R&B/Classical female vocals with Speed/Thrash/Power Metal. Great reaction/s guys. Welcome too the Wolfpack.

    LOVEBITE made a self-made demonstration CD when they were just formed. After listening to the CD, Victor Entertainment staff contacted them and decided that they would make a major debut in just six months after their first live performance. Victor's commitment to a band that had just started and had no track record was unusual. Since its debut, LOVEBITES' work has been mixed by Mikko Karmila and mastered by Mika Jussila, a talented Finnish engineering team famous for their work with Nightwish, Children of Bodom, and Amorphis. Thunder Vengeance and Shadowmaker are re-mixed and mastered with their new interpretations.

      P.S. To Kel, (caveat: LOVEBITES is my favorite metal band, but there is another that is right there with them) I know you said you would take off your headphones if there was scream/growl and believe me I was right there where you are but listening to you describe what you were missing with ASAMI's vocals, I really recommend you check out MAYU and NEMOPHILA. From the most angelic cleans, to Kawaii (cute), to her rock rasp, and last but not least the best melodic whistle-tone fry scream I've ever heard...and how she seamlessly switches between all her vocal modes. She just might be the vocalist you are looking for. From the track sent from heaven; LIFE, to a face melting brutal slap in the face DISSENSION, and everything in-between. First contact track recommendation; ADABANA Welcome to it. ruclips.net/video/AxYiOwsu6wU/видео.html

    Oh, have I waited for this one! Kel nailed it with Swan Song, but dare we say that they go heavier than the first two songs? I mean, Holy Wars and Shadowmaker are basically their gateway drugs into the band. Everyone starts with those. but when you get to Thunder Vengeance, The Awakening/Hammer of Wrath, and Break the Wall, they have everything that you need. I wish you had done Thunder Vengeance live, though; that was the opening number for that Five of a Kind show at Zepp DiverCity. The song they played immediately after that was Holy Wars. In fact, that entire show is perfect! If you do any more of this show, I'd suggest Break the Wall and even We The United.
    But you've hit it completely on the head with this band in the fact that they are women, and can play harder and heavier than most bands out there.. and do it in heels.

    I believe Frozen Serenade? has another Piano piece in it as well. Should mention this is the old bass player because they really haven't done anything with the new one yet. I too only discovered Lovebites about 3 weeks ago but I am totally obsessed with them now. There is not one song by them I do not like. one thing they do that I love is every single song has some sort of "hook" in it. Something special that makes it stand out from any regular song. An interesting thing I read about the band is the drummer and bassist were in another all female group together that broke up and they are the ones that formed Lovebites and inspired the type of music they play. ironically, the bassist left the group but the rest who had backgrounds in other genres continued on with her style of music. Oh and the blond guitarists only started playing guitarist when she was 20. Good to see you guys back. Sorry to hear about Kel's misfortune but she looks as beautiful as ever.

    Miho's father died and I speculate she was having some trouble coping. She is back playing in projects like the Down Dope Squad which is a group of Japanese women musicians who got together to do a few concerts of covers . Mao Yamamoto was the keyboardist for the symphonic metal band Light Bringer. Fuki from Unlucky Morpheus started out as the singer in Light Bringer. Asami and Mao are writing songs for a new band Lonesome Blue. The lead guitarist for that band, Narumi, was in the all-women metal band Destrose with Haruna and Miho. Narumi is also participating in the Down Dope Squad.

    May I recommend “We the United” “Set the World on Fire!” and “Judgement Day” for me those are three of my favorites. I have all their songs and I’d say about 80% of their songs are really really good!

    The band take their from the HALESTORM song, “Love Bites And So Do I.” I think Kel might like their songs, “RAISE SOME HELL,” and “SET THE WORLD ON FIRE” even better.
    Next, try NEMOPHILA, an even heavier and more versatile all-female Metal quintet from Japan. Look for DISSENTION (original version), OIRAN (demo version), SEIZE THE FATE, and ADABANA.
    For even MORE Metal Metal, Kel needs SLAYER (listen to the entire REIGN IN BLOOD album-it’s only 30 minutes long) and TESTAMENT (PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH and SOULS OF BLACK).
    For old-school, male rock and metal, try the live recording of INSIDE LOOKING OUT by GRAND FUNK RAILROAD.
    For something more recent, try Swedish bands like ENTOMBED (anything from the WOLVERINE BLUES album), THE HAUNTED, and AMON AMARTH.

      I guess we've come a long way from your slightly sceptical reaction a few years ago to Angela Gossow's rendition of "Nemesis" with Arch Enemy. Maybe time to give them a revisit, with Angela and more recently with Alyssa?

    good and honest reaction. i think the opposite of kel though because i've heard almost nothing except masculinity in metal for the last 50 years. LOVEBITES is refreshing to me in the sense that it brings femininity into the mix while retaining the heaviness that their predecessors had. a new take with their new music that i can't get enough of.

    I can see where Kel is coming from. Growing up, i would never imagined loving this style of metal so much, listened to a lot of Slipknot, generally heavier stuff!!
    Also, power metal isnt for everyone and thats ok!! Meanwhile, my taste has changed a bit over the years and im a HUGE Lovebites fan!! If you're a fan of this genre, this band is a dream!!
    The musicianship this band carries is absolutely amazing, Midori and Miyako such fantastic twin-lead guitars and their different styles mesh so well together!!
    Haruna and Miho, powerhouse rhythm section and Asami for my ears is so good, her vocals really shine on some of the ballads, slower songs!!
    This was wonderful, Thank you both!! 🤘🐺🤘

    Masters of Metal, Angels of Steel! I've been listening to Metal since 1984, Thrash Metal being my favourite subgenre after hearing Metallica's "Fight Fire With Fire" for the first time on the radio way back then, and discovered Lovebites 4 years ago (unfortunately just a few days after they had finished their German tour). They are the band I have always hoped one day would emerge: an all-female band taking "old school" Metal to the next level! Even though Miho has left the band, her decision to found Lovebites has - IMO - been one of the best in the history of Metal! Also, though only a minority of their songs qualify as "pure" Thrash Metal in my book, there isn't a single song by them I don't like! Since it sounds like Kel especially likes the "thrashy" stuff and since she also would like to hear songs with less high-register vocals, I highly recommend their three IMO thrashiest songs "Break the Wall" - ruclips.net/video/5Pc0XK0lNmU/видео.html -, "The Awakening/The Hammer of Wrath" - ruclips.net/video/otJZPUCwyOM/видео.html - and "Set the World on Fire" - ruclips.net/video/99zsH6iG_6c/видео.html which happen to be my favourite songs by Lovebites and might also turn out to become Kel's faves (can't guarantee anything, though). If you should react to any of them, make sure to pick these live versions, because they are the best! And just for the fun-factor of it (not necessarily for a reaction), do watch guitarists Miyako and Midori joining Dragonforce for "Farming Simulator": ruclips.net/video/KnGPZxfOAmg/видео.html and the entire band joining Dragonforec for a rendition of "My Heart Will Go On": ruclips.net/video/mWVwdGi9ixI/видео.html

Maybe this might explain why I didn't sleep very well last night. When I went to bed, I had actually been wondering "Did I write Haruna instead of Miho?", but since it was already 1 a.m. I didn't bother to get up and turn on my computer again.

    Thank you for getting to Lovebites so soon after your return! In a way, you guys were responsible for me finding them back in 2019 because, after your Band-Maid reactions, I went off and searched for other all-female Japanese bands, and the first ones I found were the fabulous Mary's Blood (my favourites, sadly now on indefinite hiatus) and Lovebites. I'm just a little sad we didn't get to see Rich's reaction when he heard them for them first time, too, because while you were gone I kept thinking "Rich needs to hear them, Rich needs to hear them" 🤣
    Btw, if you want to try some 70s tinged rock from Japan, can I suggest Glim Spanky? Their song "Give Me Rage" (怒りをくれよ) is a good starting place, I think. Remi's voice is like a drug 😍

    Herman Lee is a class act and his band is great band! Lovebites is equally great as well. I have nothing but love for all those bands but I would urge you to revisit Band-Maid. They are a truly unique special band that have evolved into a league of their own. They are really pushing their sound towards a progressive and unique place and where I feel they are unmatched. This has only been magnified after seeing them live on their recent 13 city sold out U.S. tour.
