I'm glad you've discovered the J-Metal/Rock rabbit hole. 'Metal Warriors' refers to the original reason Miho founded the band - to bring back original Heavy Metal sound of the 80's and 90's. Miho left for personal reasons, and they went on hiatus, Miyako and Asami had babies, and they held auditions and selected 20yr old bass phenom Fami in 2022 to continue their Metal Journey. They just completed a European tour, and after playing in S Korea and Tokyo they are coming to the US for the first time to play 4 concerts in September. Suggestion: *_The Hammer of Wrath_* from 2023 in their return to the stage after their hiatus, with new bassist Fami ua-cam.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/v-deo.html
It's deep and it runs even deeper. The J-Metal/Rock scene is one of those scenes that truly delves into the different awesome edges of what these music genres can be. It started for me back in 2011 when I discovered on one of the Saw films a music video by X-Japan and the curiosity never slowed. Thank you for the suggestion.
thank you for your fine reaction and appreciation for the young ladies. now you´ve got a first impression, how godd as musicians they are. for me almost more impressive is, that in their whole backcatalogue of around 60 songs you wont find a single bad, stale or mediocre one. nort many bands, even the greatest, can claim that for themselves.
@@CaffeineNightOwl this is true. Unfortunately a lot of it is about commercialized music these days and a lot of bands don't put much energy into making their entire library something that can be listened to on repeat. It's exciting to know that there's still bands out there that care about making an entirety of great music rather than just one or two songs per outing.

Awesome information.👍There will be other videos I do on this band in the future but it's so cool for you all to be able share this info in the comments. Thank you.🤘🐺🤘
@@1970Phoenix to be perfectly honest I'm inclined to agree with you there. I've heard a lot of music over the years but this band stands out in ways I haven't heard most do. Once a certain sound becomes one bands sound and they're popular among popular, that kinda becomes the whole follow the leader thing that Korn talked about once before. It almost takes guts anymore to not be in the flow which is what it is on one hand but on the other hand it drowns bands identities really fast.
Thank you for reacting this song ❤. I didn’t know if you knew them or not but seems like you knew them from sometime ago😅 and I’m glad you enjoyed it. Well 😊I’d like you to check out other Japanese metal which may be you’ve never listened such as JILUKA “VENOM”, Maximum the Hormone “YoshuFukushu”. If you have time, pls check them out someday. BTW JILUKA is visual -kei band😅
@@rismari9545 I am fully intrigued by these suggestions and thank you for them. Can't wait to check them for the first time in each of their respective React & Reviews. 🤘😊👍
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?
But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
Only have one thing on our mind
Facing the fate, holy war

LOVEBITES are elite musicians - probably the most musically talented metal band to appear in the last 20 years.
@@1970Phoenix to be perfectly honest I'm inclined to agree with you there. I've heard a lot of music over the years but this band stands out in ways I haven't heard most do. Once a certain sound becomes one bands sound and they're popular among popular, that kinda becomes the whole follow the leader thing that Korn talked about once before. It almost takes guts anymore to not be in the flow which is what it is on one hand but on the other hand it drowns bands identities really fast.

Thank you for reacting this song ❤. I didn’t know if you knew them or not but seems like you knew them from sometime ago😅 and I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Well 😊I’d like you to check out other Japanese metal which may be you’ve never listened such as JILUKA “VENOM”, Maximum the Hormone “YoshuFukushu”. If you have time, pls check them out someday.
BTW JILUKA is visual -kei band😅
