Got the meet and greet ticket for their San Francisco show. Looking forward to it.🤘🐺🤘

The only song in their catalogue so far that was written by Haruna. I hope she does more!

When was this? 2 or 3 years after they started the band. It is impressive!

And you didn't mention it..... but Miyako was smiling quite a bit ❤😂😅❤

New EP and also a Blu-ray will be released on August 28. „LOVEBITES EP II“ will also contain a re-recording of the debut „LOVEBITES EP“ in a limited edition „Memorial of the Warrior Souls“ is the recording of last years paid livestream which features 7 live versions from „Judgement Day“ album including „Soldier stands solitarily“

Great reaction! I saw them live in Lindau last week. The ladies are incredible. Best live concert I've ever attend to.

LOVEBITES - Bravehearted lyrics: Throw away all the masks that you wear You're not fooling nobody with cheap imitations Don't take it, your heart can see right through it all Turn and face all the fear that you're hiding from Take what you can and turn everything into your own strength Keep pushing forth, all the way Chained to the fear engraved deep inside Memories that will stay, still haunting Even if there is nobody else You must keep the promise of faith Don't you pity yourself for your weakness Without any sacrifice, you can forget all the prayers It's up to you to be your God Drowning into a sea of hopelessness Underneath all the weight and burden If you want to escape destiny Be prepared to burn through the blazing sun Glory to the brave, deserted you may stand But no matter how arduous, be the victorious Prove that your will's the strongest battle cry Go and raise your sword, the war has just begun There is always a way if you know that your heart is true Nothing can stop your soul from breaking free Don't turn your back, no don't make it pretend Fight through the pain until you've reached the end Though dark and bloody, have no worries There will be redemption Finally when the skies rise over you Triumph will be in your heart shining through Forever guiding the way into the light Silently listening to words of Hell and hate Shatters the armour to sway your fragile heart Still it's the only way, refuse to give it up Keep the focus, and you will notice Everything is almost in your grasp Drowning into a sea of hopelessness Underneath all the weight and burden If you want to escape destiny Be prepared to burn through the blazing sun Glory to the brave, deserted you may stand But no matter how arduous, be the victorious Prove that your will's the strongest battle cry Go and raise your sword, the war has just begun There is always a way if you know that your heart is true Nothing can stop your soul from breaking free Don't turn your back, no don't make it pretend Fight through the pain until you've reached the end Though dark and bloody, have no worries There will be redemption Finally when the skies rise over you Triumph will be in your heart shining through Forever guiding the way into the light If you swear to God, you must see it through The power is in your hands ----- lyrics: haruna (translated with asami) music: haruna arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) EP: The LOVEBITES EP 05/24/2017 (Japanese language lyrics) album: Awakening From Abyss 10/25/2017 (English lyrics)

Lovebites has come a long way in 5 years in all the categories you mentioned. Just watched some videos from a show they did 6/22/24 and the stage performance is great and seeing Miyako moving around and interacting is awesome to watch. The Band as a whole has upped their game starting with Knocken At Heavens Gate performance.

Thank you for your reaction. Going to see them live soon so I basically read and listen to all I can find. :)

HARUNA !!! HARUNA !!! HARUNA !!! 🤘

👍👍LOVEBITES live is 🔥🔥🔥🔥x💯. 🖖❤

Lovebites are amazing 🤩 miss MIho but love Fami I’m hoping they will come to Canada 🇨🇦 love to see them live 😊🤘

Nothing wrong about a shorter reaction. I love their live videos the most and this one is no different.

They interact a lot more in their more recent shows. This one is one of their earlier ones, 2019 I think.

🤘🐺🤘

I love this song so much, maybe my favorite Lovebites lyrics

No issue with your short review. I find my self smiling from the opening chords. Thy all play with such ease. Even Ice Princess was carrying out some flamboyant guitar playing! In this case, I wish there was longer footage of Haruna. Her cymbal choice and variety can easily be missed in this track as there is a lot of backing. The clips we did see she is smiling away as if she had just accomplished Play Drums In A Day, lesson one! I still believe the way they dress is part of their appeal. Visual impact adds to a show and for me, keeping the pretty princesses look, separates them from many other female bands.

Good review as always, you should watch the fancam : Lovebites live in Rock Imperium. They are really good.

Manda is a big Lovebites fan just like us so she couldn't miss this 😄

Got my tickets for Dallas Texas. I hope you get to see them.

Ok, let me tell you something.. just saw them playing in Milano, last week, very small stage, 300 people, hot as hell, sold out, no post production, rough sound, it was a real metal live show! They are real musicians, like 80’s metal live band (yep super virtuoso).. I came back home just wet and happy! 🤘🎸

I had the same experience in Germany; it was awesome. And I got a used Guitar pick from Miyako.Yeah.... :)

Good timing! After catching Lovebites live for the first time in Milan last week I'm about to see them in Paris tomorrow night. This evening at the same venue was Jiluka, which were very impressive.. and night before BABYMETAL in Toulouse 🤘😈 BABYMETAL was supposed to be a dual headline gig with Bad Omens but they pulled out of their summer tour dates due to burnout of their singer.. so Palaye Royale stepped in as a sub.. and gotta give them props.. they thanked the crowd for being there multiple times, thanked BABYMETAL, brought a ton of stage energy and crowd interaction with balloons, surfing the crowd in a boat and circlepits. Great warm up for The Fox God 🦊

If you wanted more stage interaction, you should have chosen a performance with Fami in the band, she gave the whole band a dose of fresh energy.

the original Japanese version of this is on their first EP you can hear it on youtube

Live at Mynavi Blitz Akasaka, Tokyo (2019 Jan) Blu-ray DAUGHTERS OF THE DAWN 107min + Gear Introduction 21min Addicted - *Bravehearted* - The Crusade - Pledge of the Saviour - Rising - Scream for Me - Break the Wall - Shadowmaker - Above the Black Sea - Empty Daydream - M.D.O. - Journey to the Other Side - Edge of the World - We the United - Epilogue - Don't Bite the Dust - Under the Red Sky 🤘🐺🤘

LoveBites is now preparing for their upcoming world tour. I believe ProgPower will be the ladies' first US appearance unless something has changed. I have known about LoveBites for a long time. Mainly because of one person, Captain Mina of Fate Gear. Which just so happens to also be the legendary founder of Destrose. A band that reads like a who who of J-Metal. Everyone from LoveBites, Nemophila & Aldious. To Mary's Blood, Mardelas, Albion, Disqualia, and Fate Gear of coarse among others. Has been a member or is connected to Destrose in some way shape or form. Mina never takes credit for anything & is always content to have others take the lead. If any J-Metal artist deserves a hall of fame induction it's Mina. Great reaction to one of my favorite J-metal bands. 🤘🎸🔥

Good review, I like seeing the older performances from 2019, not too many reactors show those. Great song and they are always fun to watch. 🐺🤘

Drummer Haruna wrote this song in Japanese on Lovebites EP that Asami translated to English for the 1st album The Awakening from the Abyss ]:P

in the old concerts it was as if something was holding them down.....with time they were freed and in the concerts they give now they have the aura of a big band.......if you watch any video from their last concerts although with bad sound because it's from mobile, you'll understand what I mean.....aaa and Lemmy didn't just say that....we're the Motorhead and we kick your ass.....😏

Personally, taken as a hole, I think their performances were better, higher energy, back then, than they are now. Both Asami and Miyako had their hair down, rockin' it out! The other positions are still energetic, to this day, but Asami and Miyako have become more regal. Don't get me wrong, I love them as they are, but they seemed like they new how to have a party , back then.

I strongly disagree. I just saw them live in Belgium on the 15th of June. They are a lot more active and interactive with the public right now (with the exception of Miyako), Asami was just out of this world! Also Fami is more active than Miho ever was.

Dear @David Heretic, if you want to give 9+ scores to Lovebites, please just stop reacting to the old shows. Lovebites 2.0 have the next level of the showmanship. They also leveled up technically. There are a lot of the same songs recorded with old and new lineup. With the exception of Swan song (and only because it was uploaded without piano intro) all new versions are a way better. The energy, that Fami spreads out, electrifies the whole band and audience.
