    Thank you so much for appreciating Lovebites! 😊 This is one of the many jewels out of the treasure chamber of Lovebites' songs. 😊 What excites me most: While we alle sit in awe listening to the fantastic (M&M) guitar solos and duets, Haruna (drums) once more lays the foundation for their drive with her relentless double kick bass drums. 😳 😊 🤩 It is such a constant drum beat carpet, that you almost over-hear it. "Haruna, my heroine, again." 🤩

    "Shadowmaker" is their early work recorded in their first full album "AWAKENING FROM ABYSS" (October 2017). The music video was also released around the same time. Originally, the music video was interrupted in the middle and inserted PR for the album and tour dates. They removed the parts of the PR that were no longer needed and re-uploaded.

    You might be familiar with Rainbow, and so might be familiar with “Gates of Babylon”. If not I earnestly recommend that you check it out (Ronnie Dio on vocals, Ritchie Blackmore on guitar). To my untrained ear, the main riff used at the beginning and end of the song is a slight rework of the main riff in “Babylon”. It has a distinct Middle Eastern sound to it. Miyako (Dean guitar) was raised listening to Rainbow and Deep Purple, her mom’s favourite bands. I just have a feeling that if it didn’t consciously inspire her when writing this, then it almost did subconsciously.

    This song rocks from beginning to end. Miyako's little part coming out of the solo run is so intense to me, equaled only by Midori & Miyako coming out of the solo run in Winds of Transylvania (my favorite music video by them, a song that is controlled chaos at its finest). Like almost all of their songs, there is so much ear candy with every song they have. Backing tracks are done to perfection, and each instrument is always so busy with many layers going on.

    LOVEBITES - Shadowmaker lyrics: Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe But still I go on, my hunger is strong Hoping that someone will grab my hand Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world Maybe it's too late? No one can save me From all of the darkness and solitude Cry, like shadows of the night I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive Despite going through this hell Cause still my heart has hope No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart Reckless and fast, how long will I last? Dancing like puppets, I'm empty inside Fighting the fear, and grieving the dear Hoping that someday I'll be repaid Only my echoing heartbeats can prove that I'm here Am I all alone? Even a faint light is too bright for me, I can't see a thing Hide, in shadows I reside I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go In desolated land knowing no escape But still I wish to live Just waiting for a somebody to notice me Before I fall down to depths of the abyss SOLO: midori / mi-ya / both / miya Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe But still I go on, my hunger is strong Hoping that someone will grab my hand Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world Maybe it's too late? No one can save me from solitude Cry, like shadows of the night I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go In desolated land knowing no escape But still I wish to live Just waiting for a somebody to notice me Before I fall down to depths of the abyss Like shadows of the night I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive Despite going through this hell Cause still my heart has hope No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) from Awakening From Abyss 2017

    You want MVs. I'd recommend When the Destinies Align kzread.info/dash/bejne/moB6x86CaZa8m7A.html. It has a great video like Kurosawa old Samurai movie Seven Samurais. My another suggestion is, not MV, just audio track Dystopia Symphony kzread.info/dash/bejne/f2xn1MiLdrzeqLQ.html. It is inspired by Beethoven Piano Sonata No.8, and I'd love them to play this piece with an orchestra.

    What constantly disappoints me is just how little credit Haruna gets . The stamina to keep the beat driving through all 5 minutes of this song with double bass kicks is phenomenal and while the other four ( rightly ) always get enormous credit sometimes I feel Haruna gets slightly forgotten - AND SHE IS AWESOME !

    perhaps this fact should be considered from perceptions of various category of viewers. Firstly not all reactors/ reviewers are learned musicians, and this category in all probability have little analytical skills to evaluate what Haruna does. Cant fault them for their limitations in being me too reactors. Then there are those gender bias, close minded stereotypes, ardent worshipers of the rock culture glorifying on attire, stage posturing, mosh pits etc:rather than the music composition and execution: in all probability Haruna wont even get a second view. from this group. In sync with the adage that only a pro would recognize another, Haruna usually receive raving reviews from those experienced in the field of music or experienced musicians themselves. These are the real accolades, for these people could provide the most apt description about her skills and abilities. That is what really matters for rating purposes in the music industry. What about the thoughts of the band members about Haruna? Well, Haruna is the drummer that opens the door for Miyako to excel further in the world of compositions, and Miyako is confident on the proficiency and competency of her resources at hand. Awesome is an understatement to describe Haruna. She is a master in time signature dynamics driving the rhythm with Miho, with the accuracy of a metronome, without which all the Miyako Midori harmonized solos will be in disarray and chaos. I am no rock/metal fan, I do not know Judas Priest, Metallica and Iron Maiden though i hear their names in those years, but what I know makes Haruna special is that she is a paradox: a fundamentally/classical trained musician playing drums for a heavy metal band. She has the versatility and dynamics with those strokes and touches of a prog, jazz fusion drummer.There are instances of Haruna;s execution that reminds me of Senri Kawaguchi. With due respect to Miho, I think LOvebites 2.0 will see the combination of Haruna and Fami with more radiant and colorful rhythmic moves. On that, leave it to Miyako and the other composers.
