    LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics: Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood People live in fear, covered in mud Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters There is a thousand, a thousand of evils Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and all for one forevermore SOLO: midori Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall Reincarnation, wait for your call Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for sisters Morning star and dying moon Into the Gates of Hell we march Mighty soul, let there be hope Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight? But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for Only have one thing on our mind Facing the fate, holy war SOLO: miyako / midori / both Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty We are the metal warriors Fighting the darkness for brothers Shining blade and burning heart Into the Gates of Hell we march Immortal soul, let there be light Into the Eye of Heaven Eagles at a holy war Fly higher than the sun We are one for all and all for one forevermore What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?

    Lovebites is more than just a speed-power metal band, they are quite diversified and they play an innovative blend of speed-power/thrash/prog/neoclassical metal/power ballads which makes their music unique. For a thrashier sound, I recommend "Set the World on Fire" LIVE : kzread.info/dash/bejne/a22u1apvmarFZsY.html , and if you want to experience how truly talented these ladies are, here is a neoclassical metal track - "Swan Song with Chopin Intro" LIVE : kzread.info/dash/bejne/iXac1tOgmburcZc.html. Enjoy you Lovebites journey !

    Welcome to the world of Japanese metal, welcome to the world of Lovebites music. This band is amazing. All members are professionals in different instruments. They always (almost always) wear white dresses. All their songs have these amazing solos and almost always these are duoling solos. Asami sings in English, but not always you can understand her words because of accent and the speed of her singing. Miyako and Midori are the best guitar duo in the world (to me). Miho is a wonderful bass player. She was a founder of the band (one of two), but she left the band. Now they have another bass player Fami. Haruna! Oh Haruna is so amazing drummer. She can hold this fast temp for two hours of the concert. She is the second founder of the band! Thank you for the reaction. More Lovebites on the channel. And welcome to the Wolfpack. Next you can listen to their live video "Set the world on fire". You will be impressed.

    Congratulations, you just found the best new metal band to come along in decades. In their first five years of existence, they put themselves on par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. They recently went on a year-and-a half hiatus while they searched for a new bassist. They announced the new bassist in October 2022 (see below) and dropped their first new song on December 22. Their new album, “Judgement Day”, was released two months later. Some background: They were formed in 2016 from the remnants of a legendary all-girl Japanese metal band called Destrose (yes, all-girl metal has been a thing in Japan since at least 1981). Miho (bass, chief headbanger and founder of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the great European bands of the golden age of metal. She recruited her former bandmate Haruna (drums, 4'9" “pocket nuclear reactor”); they needed two world-class guitarists, and so they went and found Midori and Miyako, who were with other groups. The four of them then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she was also trained in ballet). Miyako has composed a little more than half of their music, with Miho composing a lot of their thrashier songs in collaboration with Mao, the lead composer of another band called Lightbringer. Midori has also been getting into the act, and they regularly perform a song written by Haruna as well. Asami writes most of the lyrics and is also getting involved in composing. In mid-2021, Miho left the band she had founded, for personal reasons. They went on hiatus while they searched for a new bassist, and during that time, two of them had babies, even as the band were writing and rehearsing their new album. They recently announced the new bassist, Fami, who is a young phenom and herself a composer and multi-instrumentalist. Their first song with Fami is “Judgement Day” kzread.info/dash/bejne/n2epqcypXbOddKw.html The instrumentalists studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. They have incorporated some of the best of each of those bands into their arsenal, and have created a sound that is fresh and cutting edge while paying tribute to the old masters. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance was that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining. They do everything from soulful power ballads to heavy thrash. Almost every song includes face-melting solos by Miyako and Midori. The two guitarists are quite different in style and tone. Midori (blonde ponytail) is the extrovert and speed demon; Miyako is the introvert, with the more soulful feel (though she can also shred like crazy). Midori uses a cleaner tone, Miyako uses more distortion, pinch harmonics and pedal effects. The contrast makes their duets rich and dynamic. It doesn’t hurt that either one can smoke most of the shredders in the classic metal bands. As another reviewer said, "It seems criminal these two are allowed to be in the same band." Here are more clips you should check out: “Set the World on Fire” kzread.info/dash/bejne/a22u1apvmarFZsY.html from their 2021 concert DVD “Heavy Metal Never Dies”. “Don’t Bite the Dust” kzread.info/dash/bejne/oXyiral-mpSpfcY.html, from the same concert; "Edge of the World" and "We the United", back to back: kzread.info/dash/bejne/paBkj7dmqc6wc7g.html They form an incredible journey from darkness and despair to light and hope. Also, “Empty Daydream”, which starts as a ballad and becomes a real rocker: kzread.info/dash/bejne/noycwdeGfZyamrg.html; Perhaps their greatest masterpiece, a showcase of multi-instrumental virtuosity and even classical dance “A Frozen Serenade” kzread.info/dash/bejne/c5ls0rOPpZC4fps.html Miyako is also a virtuoso concert pianist, and was headed for a career in classical music, before picking up the guitar. If you want to see what she can do on the piano, watch “Swan Song” WITH the prelude, which is Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor). Miyako wrote “Swan Song” using elements from several classical pieces including the Etude. This link should work: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iXac1tOgmburcZc.html. For a thrasher with heavy Slayer and Metallica vibes, “Break the Wall” kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z4SXkrqEYM-0nbg.html includes two gorgeous and completely contrasting solos by M&M. For a heart-stopping ballad, “Epilogue” kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y62i0Lp9lqjUnrw.html (this includes a second song, your choice whether or not to react to both) While you will sometimes hear you should only react to live clips, actually their MV’s are epic and worth seeing. Here are four of the most spectacular: "Shadowmaker" kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKah0c6nZarepdY.html This is the song that blew up and melted faces all over the world "When Destinies Align" kzread.info/dash/bejne/moB6x86CaZa8m7A.html "Glory to the World" kzread.info/dash/bejne/X6t-1qZriKi-eJc.html "Winds of Transylvania" kzread.info/dash/bejne/eqd5lrebj7PQmJs.html. Finally, the audio tracks of some of the new album are up on youtube, and worth checking out. The band clearly came out swinging and wanted to make a statement. Every song on the album is a showcase of their incredible talent and songwriting capabilities. “Stand and Deliver” is a thrasher with a fun video of them in the studio. “Soldier Stands Solitarily”, the final song on the album, is being touted by some as the best thing they’ve done so far-I encourage you to see and decide for yourself! You'll get lots of suggestions, just one thing: don't bother with Bloodstock footage, the sound quality is poor. Best to take suggestions with actual links. Also, you can’t go wrong with any of their official clips. Welcome to the Wolf-Pack!

    Great reaction. This is Lovebites…everything they have ever done is this good. Metal perfection. I like to use the Dio comparison too. So imagine my surprise yesterday when, after following the band for two and a half years, Asami, the vocalist, was receiving thousands of birthday congratulations when what pops a memory in FB (from before I had discovered them) but an r.i.p. for Ronnie on HIS birthday. Yep, they have the same birthday. I’m 63 and I believe Lovebites is the perfect metal band. The best ever.

They have reinvigorated metal and their lyrics are uplifting / encouraging 99% of the time, not depressing / dark like most of the genre. Keep it going! 🤘

    Lovebites has been around since 2016, and the women became more famous worldwide after performing at several major festivals, mainly in Europe, starting in 2018. 2018 - Wacken - Open Air in Germany 2018 - Bloodstock Open Air in England 2019 - Graspop Metal Meeting Festival in Belgium 2019 - Download Festival in Spain In 2020, their career was abruptly interrupted by Corona. But they masterfully overcame the crisis, got married and had babies. In 2021 the founder Miho left the band for personal reasons and it went into a hiatus which lasted until the end of 2022. In the fall of 2022 they found a young fantastic bass player and in 2023 they released a new LP. The new LP reached the 5th place in the Japanese charts. Japan is the 2nd largest music market in the world and it is very rare that in these times a rock band comes so far forward.

    Just because the ladies play fast doesn't mean they're a speed metal band. Also, LOVEBITES have songs that are slower than Holy War, and for that reason, these songs do not fit the definition of "speed metal" in any way. LOVEBITES is a heavy metal band. In all interviews and at concerts, the ladies call themselves a heavy metal band: "We are LOVEBITES and we play heavy metal!" They perform different genres of metal: thrash, power, speed, progressive, neo-classic metal. Approximately 15-18% of original LOVEBITES songs are thrash metal. They also have songs that are closer to hard rock. There are songs with elements of symphonic metal. LOVEBITES also play classical music. Try to take fewer breaks. Then you will better feel the new song for yourself. It's a crime to interrupt guitar solos several times. 🤗This is not criticism, this is advice.

    This one is straight forward, but it is not easy. The solos are very good, in totally different ways. Miyako for feeling and Midori for finger dexterity. And the "monotone" fast paced parts are extremely hard to do. You have to be in perfect sync, all four musicians. Some of their more heavy songs do not have that requirement. This is actually the song that impresses most people. It shows their skills perfectly. Now, I would say they are maturing as performers, and their "The Hammer of Wrath" is so much fun.

    Welcome to the best metal band in the world, imho anyway. You pretty much nailed it - Asami's vocals are a cross between Bruce Dickinson and Dio, with clarity and an active vibrato, but she has an R&B background, so has that as well, which you'll see signs of sometimes. Musically, they're the most talented band I've come across. Haruna on drums is amazing. She and Miho, the bassist founded the band in 2016, but Miho left late 2021 and now Fami (also really talented) is the new bassist. Midori and Miyako on guitars are the best duo around. I am Team Miyako, so I am biased, but I agree, I give the solo here to Midori. A fantastic thing is they give each other, and all the band members, equal time to shine. I'd check out more of their live performances, and suggest Break the Wall next kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z4SXkrqEYM-0nbg.html However, they have the first video of new live footage from their shows in March 2023 premiering in a few hours with Hammer of Wrath. I love the 2020 performance of Awakening - Hammer of Wrath, but since this is brand new and none of us have seen it it (few of us), could also react to that one kzread.info/dash/bejne/onymubSNYK3LkcY.html
