@@joshbrewer4309 What exactly do you mean by "better"? Better songwriters? More theatrical entertainers? More famous? More popular? Sold more records? What exactly do you mean by "better"? Or do you simply mean that you personally prefer them? I said that Lovebites were "vastly superior musicians". In hindsight, using the word "vastly" is a bit of a overstatement, but Lovebites objectively have more combined musical talent than does Metallica. Let me put it this way. Lovebites could play EVERY Metallica song, and play it extremely well, but Metallica could most certainly NOT play every Lovebites song.

it's not Japanese agency do not actively promote artists overseas. Because they have the second largest music market in the world. they can make a lot of money just by selling domestically. Even if several European countries combine, they cannot beat the Japanese music market alone. Even if an individual japanese musician wants to perform overseas more, the agency will prioritize domestic work. It is natural decision for an agency to target the domestic market rather than overseas where success is not guaranteed. and It is difficult for new Asian woman band to enter the West, where the Metal scene is dying. The only bands that are still popular in the West are bands that have already established popularity. Rock is listened to at least in Japan more than in the West.
Lovebites rules.. Don't be discouraged by some, please keep doing Lovebites, as you say they should be much more popular. they need the exposure. They really should be up there with the greats.. Best wishes from France.. Signs of deliverance and Mastermind, two more for you..
It's been said before, their label/management are letting them down. They should be MASSIVE. They need a headlining European tour, especially the UK (that's just me being biased).
Agree on both parts (just replacing UK with Germany, since that's where I live). One thing which seems to back up your first statement: In the German metal magazine Rock Hard (to my knowledge one of the two biggest German metal magazines, the other one being Metal Hammer), there has been no review of "Electric Pentagram", no review of "Glory, Glory, to the World" and so far no review of "Judgement Day"! I also haven't seen a review of "Judgement Day" in the German version of Metal Hammer yet. (Don't know if there's been one of their two previous releases.)
@@MissLoonasSpeech Their record label should have such a thing as a 'promotions' department, they all need replacing as far as I'm concerned. I do wonder if their lack of notoriety/publicity was one of the factors why Miho left. Of course having an idea now things work in Japan we will probably never know (and I still vote for the UK, LOL). It seems to be falling on the fans to spread the word.
Definitely NO screaming or growling or any sort of harsh vocals for Lovebites, it'll ruin the melodic contrasts to the fast-paced and heavy riffs & licks of their songs.
I feel COVID destroyed their momentum, because they in 2018 they where at several festival, they had a UK tour with their second album Clockwork Immortality, and they had backing of major labels Arising Empire and Nuclear Blast, which is the reason why Rising and Addicted are still their most played songs on Spotify. They spend a lot of of 2019 touring Europe, but their third album game right before COVID. They got to do the FIve of a Kind concert, before everything shutdown, and they lost that momentum. Now two of them have kids, and seems so much simplier for them to just tour Japan, which doesn't take much time. On the other Nemophila is touring strong in the US, and Mayu got a kid right before their last album in December, and that is not stopping them for touring. What they need is a tictok hit. Last year when Master of Puppets was big, they should have done a cover (even thought they where in the process of getting a new basis), and that could have become big. I feel like they need do some touring, to get their name out. They don't really have any tour date until end of August, so they might show up on a couple of festivals this summer. But in the end having a viral song is really what will make them big, like Hanbie right now has over 200k listeners on Spotify, but Nemophila only have 46k, and that is after doing their US tour.
I think one reason they are more animated and relaxed on this song is that, for a Lovebites song, it's pretty simple and straight forward. No need to stand still and focus 100% but you can relax and just have fun. And it shows. All that's missing is a tiny smile from Miyako but she was also more animated than ever in the 2021 live, even head banging with Miho and Midori, so at least we know she can let go 😀 You're always fun to watch so I'm looking forward to more from you gentlemen. Keep it up!
They have many songs where they're basically telling you that "We're going to drive you over like a freight train and conquer the fucking world!!!!" They know that they're fighting against the culture where women aren't that appreciated, and that they have and will face people's preconceptions and dismissal etc. But they want to say loud and clear, they're here to rock the world and play heavy metal... they're here to make some noise and raise some hell :D Gotta appreciate that attitude.
Great reaction as always just like LB is great always. This is the song that they use to get the crowd pumped during the set. The pandemic killed their touring just as they were getting attention from all the European Metal festivals they stunned everyone at. Getting visas and dates is hard for any foreign band here in the States. Only recently Babymetal started the inroad, and Band Maid really sold out strong and Nemophila recently joined in. Usually great bands like Asterism play in small clubs in the States. LB needs a tour but name one band here in the States that would dare and tour with this level of excellence. They toured the UK under DragonForce and everyone said they were the lead band on that short tour, they were that good. They still have less than 100K subscribers while Fami before joining them had over 600K for a bass player go figure. Asterism is another great band that blends Metal/Rock/Jazz and prog. Very young but Dawn LIVE in a small cafe will blow you away. Hal-Ca was 16 and if Hendrix had a granddaughter she is it. The bassist at 17 had a one of a kind custom 7 string bass nade by ESP for him. There are no vocals but their music screams if you are a real music lovers.
I agree… you guys should react to Asterism… one of the best unknown trio metal band out there… you are also right about Hal-Ca… to me she’s like Hendrix /Steve Vai
@@lito6242 I was privileged to see Hendrix twice before he unfortunately joined the 27 Club. Believe me Hal-Ca has that same vibe, you simply can't take your eyes off her once she starts pkaying.
This song comes from the Electric Pentagram album which, I have to admit, is still my favorite Lovebites album. This song shows how versatile Miyako is in her compositions. She wroye it as a good ole rock party song and she was inspired by Lzzy Hale and Halestorm. They had met Halestorm at at least two 2019 festivals and Asami sang Love Bites (So Do I) with Lzzy Hale at both festivals. Because it was such a party sounding song, Asami decided to write what she even considers to be silly lyrics. It is a great song but for some reason they left it off the setlist in their 3 2021 shows and the 2 recent shows. I hope they bring it back. It is a song that was meant to be played for and with an audience.
Asami's nickname is "The One and Only Voice". It was the one thing when I realized I had found them a few years back and they became my favorite band that I wasn't sure about. Then, after listening to their entire catalog you see her range and versatility and I came to appreciate the beauty and brilliance it. She writes songs and as far as I can tell she's not going anywhere so if you want harsh vocals then listen to those bands (JMetal: Nemophila/Hanabie/Saiseiga). If you listen to Lovebites however there is no use complaining about it she is their perfect fit.
Lovebites are always perfect. All their songs are amazing. I would like them have collaboration with Nemophila to perform any song with screaming! I would be cool. Thank you for the reaction. More Lovebites on the channel.
Welcome back. LOVEBITES has about 60 songs. Please continue the LOVEBITES from now on. The girls introduce themselves with this song. LOVEBITES' live set list includes songs that can get the crowd going. I found the following songs on the new album to get everyone excited. "Stand and Deliver". "My Orion"(with the "Kawaii lion" gesture!)
I have been a Lovebites fan for years and I can honestly say I have not heard one bad song from them. As far as screaming vocals, I don’t think it’s necessary. I mean I love a good screaming vocal, but in the case of Lovebites, it isn’t needed. Everything about them already screams strong and powerful. I mean can you imagine Asami screaming while wearing a beautiful white gown? I love that they do their own thing and haven’t conformed to todays standards of Metal. (I hope they never do)You can hear their influences, but they make it their own. I love that about them. You can get your screams from every other band. 🤘🏻🐺 (just my opinion)
For those who say they don't move around much on stage, Midori-san running in high heels. Such a great song 😎 Please can you react to SAISEIGA? "Jumble", "Ride On" or "Go On!". Cheers!
Love this performance!! 🤘🐺🤘I would loose my mind in that crowd!! It's a sentiment amongst some of the fans i talk to, that their management could do so much more!! But to be fair, their label Victor did a good job with the latest album promotion, it reached #1 in a few metal charts around the world, including the big ones like US, UK, Germany and Japan!! UA-cam is where i think their label really could do a lot better, i feel they are still living in the past and not taking advantage of the digital age we're in!! Awesome reaction!! 🤘
This is in my top 5 favorites. Really love this song. If you like Hard Rock like bands on the sunset strip like GNR and Motley Crue and Van Halen then you should check out Whiskey Dust! I recommend Blessing Fool Days or Shake and Shiver.
They have yet to play in US.. They have played in Europe a few times, even early on. But that's due to their Finnish producers / mixers, who they started with. Still no help with Jason's cam/internet I see lol. 😂
Lovebites always at the top of my listening list recently. I would recommend you check out Bridear as well (Brave New World Revisited, Bloody Bride, Light In The Dark or they just released a live vid of Ignite). Well worth a listen 👍
It doesn't help that they never toured the U.S. and the U.S. music industry doesn't want them to intrude into their market. Also, what US band wants them to open for them?
Thank you for following LOVEBITES at all times. LOVEBITES has about 60 songs. Please continue the LOVEBITES from now on. In the last Reaction video. For those of you who are curious about the LOVEBITES' album production routine, I would like to share with you an article from a magazine project. LOVEBITES will basically tour and produce an album at the same time. However, the new album "JUDGEMENT DAY" was produced by Miyako, Asami, Midori, Haruna, and Mao during the hiatus. This time, the arrangement was done by all, including Fami (Ba). All of them can compose. Miyako and Haruna can compose independently, but the other members have their own composing teams. There is a supporting composer named Mao. Mao is a synthesizer player. Asami cannot play guitar. Asami composes on Piano. Miyako&Midori have a hard time playing Asami's music on the guitar. However, since all members can play the piano, they compose music using individual instruments and the piano. Miyako uses Piano, Drum, Guitar and Bass guitar for her compositions. Until Miho left the group, lyrics were written by Asami (about 70%) and Miho (more than 20%).
I think I love the band just fine without screaming vocals lol. For those kind of vocals we already have bands like Nemophila and Hanabie, they're just as amazing in what they do. Think of LOVEBITES as a genuine classic metal, where you couldn't find any band inside the subgenre that has screaming vocals. Nice reaction, as always, guys 🔥🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼🔥
Love Bytes Rules! You guys probably know Testament but if you don't you should check them out. 80s thrash band still going, currently on tour. Their live album Dark Roots of Thrash is awesome.
If you watch their live videos you will see that they are in sync not only with the studio versions but also live. If you like crazy good guitar work try the live video "Today is the Day". If you want their most beautiful song try the live video "Frozen" and if you want the greatest interaction with the crowd and one of their best live songs try "Under the Red Sky" live from Akasaka. Make sure it's Akasaka. If you want their most popular song try "Holy War".
Excellent news: Miyako (the brown guitarist) will soon release an album where she covers metal classics only on the piano. When you know his absolute genius, you have to expect the best. And while I'm at it Happy Birthday Miyako!
Great reaction gents. I love this song, it would be in my top three of their songs along with "Shadowmaker" and "Set the World on Fire." I love the tone that Miyako gets from that Les Paul. I know that she is a signed artist with Dean, but the Gibson sounds better for their kind of music.
lol more screams and more cow bells ) dudes in all fairness if Asami gave you more screams you would lose all free will move to Japan and become her minions ;)
Enjoying the Lovebites reactions guys, cheers! I agree that they need more overseas tour exposure, which is not helped by the incompetence of their present management company, Victor Entertainment. They'd be better off signed to a big European metal label, Nuclear Blast comes to mind. As an example of the frustration experienced by non Japanese fans dealing with Victor, Miyako has just announced a solo project, Etude Op.23, where she reinterprets metal guitar classics on the piano! I have attempted to preorder the CD/DVD package , available exclusively from Victor. And have now given up after trying to register on their website. Instructions to "overseas buyers" includes entering your surname in Katakana Japanese characters - seriously! And nominating Tokyo Prefecture from a drop down menu which is entirely in Japanese. They simply have no concept of how to interact with a non Japanese market, and it shows up in this sort of idiocy. And apparently they don't appreciate that the Lovebites fanbase is now world wide (I'm an Aussie). They're sitting on a goldmine with this band, and don't know it. Rant over! Let's hope another organisation such as JPU UK pick up the rights to the Miyako project, or it will never sell outside her homeland.
WORLD ROCK AND WORLD METAL IS A THING OF BEAUTY. IT IS UP TO THE UA-cam REACTORS AND LOTS OF CHATTER TO PROMOTE THE TRUE POPULARITY OF WORLD ROCK/METAL. BTW, NEMOPHILA AND MANY OTHER BANDS WITH FRY AND GROWL. EVERY GENRE IN JAPAN, NORWAY, SWEDEN, ARGENTINA, INDIA ETC.
(Said in screaming vocals to satisfy Americans 😉:) I think their management is a bit overly cautious financially or maybe a bit lethargic and inward-looking here and there. For example, you have to navigate page after page in Japanese to join their official fan club, there is no UA-cam fan club etc. Lots of missed opportunities. The ladies have said this year, loudly and clearly for Japanese standards, that they WANT to tour overseas. I hope their management listens.
I would put this song in the same bracket as " Stand and deliver " in their repertoire!! I love it when Asami pumps out the Japanese phrase which sounds similar to the Korean word " Lets go" and relistening to the song that phrase fits right in!!
Two live songs from the band Bridear (think “Dear Bride”) that I think you’d love. Yes, more JFeMetal. Problem is, 5 guitarists. First two did twin power/heavy metal, great first 2 products 7-10yrs ago. Then slight commercial direction like song Ignite. One quits. Then great live of older song Scream. I forget the order, but then both guitarists and drummer all swapped out. New lineup is great tho. Latest ithink is live in Europe. Now they’re awesome modern pop prog metal (dream theater without lead keyboards). I really love the recent prog album Aegis of Athena and video for “Brave New World Revisited”. ua-cam.com/video/_6-OXcyMkYI/v-deo.html But I’m here for these two live versions, because of your discussion of Lovebites vocals. I can listen to “Scream” live all day. Fun & easy to find translation of this one, awesome to read along the English… ua-cam.com/video/Mwp8RKL9RyY/v-deo.html But I’m here Now because they just dropped official vid for last week’s performance of hit “Ignite”, has the vox you crave, and sound is really good. ua-cam.com/video/C0-_u9SYspE/v-deo.html Cheers 🤘🎸💃😎
After some of your comments I have come to the conclusion that there are only two suggestions for reacting to Lovebites songs... First: ANY song Lovebites has done, and Two: EVERY song Lovebites has done!!! I think those are the best two suggestions I can come up with for Lovebites!!!
another straight up fun song like this is 'scream for me' which has their greatest guitar solo battle by m+m. one the best guitar songs ever recorded. it will give you a new level of respect for their ability - like you needed any more anyway : ua-cam.com/video/46z-13l2oNs/v-deo.html
The reason LOVEBITES is not popular in the states is because they haven't toured here. If they venture out farther than Japan and the UK, they'd be much, much bigger.
you should react to Lovebites Scream For Me daughters of the dawn live tokyo 2019, Signs of diliverance live, and Spellbound live please let me know what you think
Trust me you don't have all of the Lovebites songs on your list only the more popular ones I bet, there is about 30% of their songs that get overlooked, and maybe a handful have done 2 maybe 3 of those songs, they do have some amazing hidden gems you are not aware as well as most of your viewers because most of your viewers only listen to Lovebites with the reactions they never really bother to truly support the band by buying the EPs and albums and they are always claiming that they are better live. Better yet go buy their albums and EPs
Hey Sal, I appreciate the passion you clearly have for this band, however, I just want to tell you that sometimes you come across as a little antagonistic. Happy to have you here but maybe take it down a notch or two, if you get my meaning.
For a lot of reactors LB reactions build their channel very rapidly so they like reacting to LB. Most of them barely recognize the talent which is sad. I believe LB will have a small tour in Europe but it might be some time before they hit the US, if ever. Similar to Unlucky Morpheus, they seem content with smaller venues and not striving for high recognition. Add in that metal just isn’t that popular.
Agree, this band should be leading the metal world right now.
I still can’t believe how unknown they are. They need a prime slot on a big US tour. Metallica should have scooped them up for their tour.
@@joshbrewer4309 Would such a high profile band risk being shown up by vastly superior musicians?
@@1970Phoenix Listen. Lovebites is great. They aren’t better than Metallica. That’s ok.
@@joshbrewer4309 What exactly do you mean by "better"? Better songwriters? More theatrical entertainers? More famous? More popular? Sold more records? What exactly do you mean by "better"? Or do you simply mean that you personally prefer them?

Lovebites could play EVERY Metallica song, and play it extremely well, but Metallica could most certainly NOT play every Lovebites song.
@@1970Phoenix There's a thing called song writing.
Lovebites is always worth returning to - so glad you guys came back to our ladies!
Also, "Scream For Me" (live) is an amazing "party" song - but it also has some good deep lyrics, but it kicks ass pretty hard in this same vibe.
The expression on your faces speaks volumes. Great reaction to another awesome Lovebites banger .
Lovebites never disappoints 🤘🤘🤘
LOVEBITES - Raise Some Hell lyrics:
Who is playing？Who’s that chick？Shredding on guitar

Ringing in my head
Burning in my soul
Crazy rock and roll, we’re ready to go

Problem with Lovebites not being bigger international is COVID.
Not every band needs to scream, grunt and sing like they are throwing up.
Amen!
it's not

It is a great song but for some reason they left it off the setlist in their 3 2021 shows and the 2 recent shows. I hope they bring it back. It is a song that was meant to be played for and with an audience.
They have started playing their latest songs on Sirius XM Liquid Metal. It's about time.
LOVEBITES rules! Their music just sounds great, that simple. Great reaction... maybe some screaming vocals on the next album! 🤣🤘
Don’t say screaming vocals around here….🖖🖖
@@joshbrewer4309 Haha. I'm w/you...I hope Asami never changes her voice. Why I love their music! 🤘
Asami's nickname is "The One and Only Voice". It was the one thing when I realized I had found them a few years back and they became my favorite band that I wasn't sure about. Then, after listening to their entire catalog you see her range and versatility and I came to appreciate the beauty and brilliance it. She writes songs and as far as I can tell she's not going anywhere so if you want harsh vocals then listen to those bands (JMetal: Nemophila/Hanabie/Saiseiga). If you listen to Lovebites however there is no use complaining about it she is their perfect fit.
🖖🖖
Lovebites are always perfect. All their songs are amazing.
I would like them have collaboration with Nemophila to perform any song with screaming! I would be cool.
Thank you for the reaction. More Lovebites on the channel.
Welcome back.
LOVEBITES has about 60 songs.
Please continue the LOVEBITES from now on.
The girls introduce themselves with this song.
LOVEBITES' live set list includes songs that can get the crowd going.
I found the following songs on the new album to get everyone excited.
"Stand and Deliver".
"My Orion"(with the "Kawaii lion" gesture!)
This band is so much better than 95% of the metal put there right now.
LOVEBITES is coming to USA, they are well known in Europe....
We need fun song like this because something in the world going insane. Asami's smile saves me.✨🥰🤘
Oh, this is going to be fun.
🤘🏽LOVEBITES RULES🤘🏽
🖖🖖🖖
I have been a Lovebites fan for years and I can honestly say I have not heard one bad song from them. As far as screaming vocals, I don’t think it’s necessary. I mean I love a good screaming vocal, but in the case of Lovebites, it isn’t needed. Everything about them already screams strong and powerful. I mean can you imagine Asami screaming while wearing a beautiful white gown? I love that they do their own thing and haven’t conformed to todays standards of Metal. (I hope they never do)You can hear their influences, but they make it their own. I love that about them. You can get your screams from every other band. 🤘🏻🐺 (just my opinion)
It was the vocals that first attracted me to the band. It's a sound all her own.
🖖🖖
Metalheads need to show this band to there friends. Simple as that, that how they get bigger. Show their songs to your friends!
For those who say they don't move around much on stage, Midori-san running in high heels. Such a great song 😎
Please can you react to SAISEIGA? "Jumble", "Ride On" or "Go On!". Cheers!
🐺LOVEBITES RULES🐺
Love this performance!! 🤘🐺🤘I would loose my mind in that crowd!!
It's a sentiment amongst some of the fans i talk to, that their management could do so much more!!
But to be fair, their label Victor did a good job with the latest album promotion, it reached #1 in a few metal charts around the world, including the big ones like US, UK, Germany and Japan!!
UA-cam is where i think their label really could do a lot better, i feel they are still living in the past and not taking advantage of the digital age we're in!! Awesome reaction!! 🤘
This is in my top 5 favorites. Really love this song. If you like Hard Rock like bands on the sunset strip like GNR and Motley Crue and Van Halen then you should check out Whiskey Dust! I recommend Blessing Fool Days or Shake and Shiver.
Please listen to the epilogue of the ballad.
They have yet to play in US.. They have played in Europe a few times, even early on. But that's due to their Finnish producers / mixers, who they started with. Still no help with Jason's cam/internet I see lol. 😂
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
🤘🤘
🖖🖖
Lovebites always at the top of my listening list recently. I would recommend you check out Bridear as well (Brave New World Revisited, Bloody Bride, Light In The Dark or they just released a live vid of Ignite). Well worth a listen 👍
Most bands are recognized by vocals. Asami is Lovebites. Change that, you are changing perfection.
you guys are cool man.
WOLF PACK RULES
🖖🖖🖖
🐺🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Endless talent
🖖🖖
Miho! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Doin' it all in HIGH heels.
Fuckin wild! 🖖🖖
It doesn't help that they never toured the U.S. and the U.S. music industry doesn't want them to intrude into their market. Also, what US band wants them to open for them?
Thank you for following LOVEBITES at all times.
LOVEBITES has about 60 songs.
Please continue the LOVEBITES from now on.
In the last Reaction video.
For those of you who are curious about the LOVEBITES' album production routine, I would like to share with you an article from a magazine project.
LOVEBITES will basically tour and produce an album at the same time.
However, the new album "JUDGEMENT DAY" was produced by Miyako, Asami, Midori, Haruna, and Mao during the hiatus.
This time, the arrangement was done by all, including Fami (Ba).
All of them can compose.
Miyako and Haruna can compose independently, but the other members have their own composing teams.
There is a supporting composer named Mao.
Mao is a synthesizer player.
Asami cannot play guitar.
Asami composes on Piano.
Miyako&Midori have a hard time playing Asami's music on the guitar.
However, since all members can play the piano, they compose music using individual instruments and the piano.
Miyako uses Piano, Drum, Guitar and Bass guitar for her compositions.
Until Miho left the group, lyrics were written by Asami (about 70%) and Miho (more than 20%).
Unfortunately for you and fortunately for my ears, grunting into the microphone is not Lovebites' style.
I think I love the band just fine without screaming vocals lol. For those kind of vocals we already have bands like Nemophila and Hanabie, they're just as amazing in what they do. Think of LOVEBITES as a genuine classic metal, where you couldn't find any band inside the subgenre that has screaming vocals. Nice reaction, as always, guys 🔥🤘🏼🐺🤘🏼🔥
We also have Gacharic Spin now that Angie is now throwing out harsh vocals with Hana.
@@danw6048 ah yeah, how could I forget them? Yes Angie can do harsh vocals pretty fine there, along with Hana that has pretty amazing growl too.
Miho Miho Miho!
🖖🖖🖖
I'm with you. It's criminal that their management don't promote them more.
Don't ever suggest screaming vocals again though. It's not even funny.
It’s a little funny….🖖
@@joshbrewer4309 Yeah, I know. But thankfully The White Wolves have more class than that.
Love Bytes Rules! You guys probably know Testament but if you don't you should check them out. 80s thrash band still going, currently on tour. Their live album Dark Roots of Thrash is awesome.
If you watch their live videos you will see that they are in sync not only with the studio versions but also live. If you like crazy good guitar work try the live video "Today is the Day". If you want their most beautiful song try the live video "Frozen" and if you want the greatest interaction with the crowd and one of their best live songs try "Under the Red Sky" live from Akasaka. Make sure it's Akasaka. If you want their most popular song try "Holy War".
Excellent news: Miyako (the brown guitarist) will soon release an album where she covers metal classics only on the piano. When you know his absolute genius, you have to expect the best. And while I'm at it Happy Birthday Miyako!
Great reaction gents. I love this song, it would be in my top three of their songs along with "Shadowmaker" and "Set the World on Fire." I love the tone that Miyako gets from that Les Paul. I know that she is a signed artist with Dean, but the Gibson sounds better for their kind of music.
lol more screams and more cow bells ) dudes in all fairness if Asami gave you more screams you would lose all free will move to Japan and become her minions ;)
You’re probably right. 😂🖖
@@joshbrewer4309 lol i knew it ok i have to get back to shining her shoes now cheers ;)
Enjoying the Lovebites reactions guys, cheers!
I agree that they need more overseas tour exposure, which is not helped by the incompetence of their present management company, Victor Entertainment. They'd be better off signed to a big European metal label, Nuclear Blast comes to mind.
As an example of the frustration experienced by non Japanese fans dealing with Victor, Miyako has just announced a solo project, Etude Op.23, where she reinterprets metal guitar classics on the piano!
I have attempted to preorder the CD/DVD package , available exclusively from Victor. And have now given up after trying to register on their website. Instructions to "overseas buyers" includes entering your surname in Katakana Japanese characters - seriously! And nominating Tokyo Prefecture from a drop down menu which is entirely in Japanese. They simply have no concept of how to interact with a non Japanese market, and it shows up in this sort of idiocy. And apparently they don't appreciate that the Lovebites fanbase is now world wide (I'm an Aussie). They're sitting on a goldmine with this band, and don't know it.
Rant over! Let's hope another organisation such as JPU UK pick up the rights to the Miyako project, or it will never sell outside her homeland.
🖖🖖
🤟
🖖🖖
WORLD ROCK AND WORLD METAL IS A THING OF BEAUTY. IT IS UP TO THE UA-cam REACTORS AND LOTS OF CHATTER TO PROMOTE THE TRUE POPULARITY OF WORLD ROCK/METAL. BTW, NEMOPHILA AND MANY OTHER BANDS WITH FRY AND GROWL. EVERY GENRE IN JAPAN, NORWAY, SWEDEN, ARGENTINA, INDIA ETC.
You've got to the slightly miffed stage pretty quickly. A new shiny will come along soon enough, enjoy this amazing band while you can!
I’m not miffed 🖖🖖
🖖
Please react to Empty Daydream or Epilogue!!
🖖🖖
Epilogue please ❤
(Said in screaming vocals to satisfy Americans 😉:) I think their management is a bit overly cautious financially or maybe a bit lethargic and inward-looking here and there. For example, you have to navigate page after page in Japanese to join their official fan club, there is no UA-cam fan club etc. Lots of missed opportunities. The ladies have said this year, loudly and clearly for Japanese standards, that they WANT to tour overseas. I hope their management listens.
My man 🖖
I would put this song in the same bracket as " Stand and deliver " in their repertoire!! I love it when Asami pumps out the Japanese phrase which sounds similar to the Korean word " Lets go" and relistening to the song that phrase fits right in!!
Two live songs from the band Bridear (think “Dear Bride”) that I think you’d love. Yes, more JFeMetal.
Problem is, 5 guitarists. First two did twin power/heavy metal, great first 2 products 7-10yrs ago. Then slight commercial direction like song Ignite. One quits. Then great live of older song Scream. I forget the order, but then both guitarists and drummer all swapped out. New lineup is great tho. Latest ithink is live in Europe. Now they’re awesome modern pop prog metal (dream theater without lead keyboards). I really love the recent prog album Aegis of Athena and video for “Brave New World Revisited”. ua-cam.com/video/_6-OXcyMkYI/v-deo.html
But I’m here for these two live versions, because of your discussion of Lovebites vocals.
I can listen to “Scream” live all day. Fun & easy to find translation of this one, awesome to read along the English… ua-cam.com/video/Mwp8RKL9RyY/v-deo.html
But I’m here Now because they just dropped official vid for last week’s performance of hit “Ignite”, has the vox you crave, and sound is really good. ua-cam.com/video/C0-_u9SYspE/v-deo.html
Cheers
🤘🎸💃😎
I've heard of them but never gave them a chance. Must check them more, great suggestions, thanks!
🔥LOVEBITESRULES🔥
After some of your comments I have come to the conclusion that there are only two suggestions for reacting to Lovebites songs... First: ANY song Lovebites has done, and Two: EVERY song Lovebites has done!!! I think those are the best two suggestions I can come up with for Lovebites!!!
another straight up fun song like this is 'scream for me' which has their greatest guitar solo battle by m+m. one the best guitar songs ever recorded. it will give you a new level of respect for their ability - like you needed any more anyway : ua-cam.com/video/46z-13l2oNs/v-deo.html
hey guys you gotta react the song scream for me has an awesome guitar duel
do a song called dancing with the devil
👽LOVEBITESRULES👽
Mieux vaut tard que jamais !
This song is about themselves.
Banger!
The reason LOVEBITES is not popular in the states is because they haven't toured here. If they venture out farther than Japan and the UK, they'd be much, much bigger.
you should react to Lovebites Scream For Me daughters of the dawn live tokyo 2019, Signs of diliverance live, and Spellbound live please let me know what you think
Still not convinced LOVEBITES have sweat glands.
Will you guys please get Jason a better camera? 😀
He lives in the outskirts of town. He’s using hamster powered internet. Rumor is tho, he could be moving closer to town 🤷♂️
Excellent, aren’t they?
pantera and its seed
MOTORBITES...!
Trust me you don't have all of the Lovebites songs on your list only the more popular ones I bet, there is about 30% of their songs that get overlooked, and maybe a handful have done 2 maybe 3 of those songs, they do have some amazing hidden gems you are not aware as well as most of your viewers because most of your viewers only listen to Lovebites with the reactions they never really bother to truly support the band by buying the EPs and albums and they are always claiming that they are better live. Better yet go buy their albums and EPs
Hey Sal, I appreciate the passion you clearly have for this band, however, I just want to tell you that sometimes you come across as a little antagonistic. Happy to have you here but maybe take it down a notch or two, if you get my meaning.
For a lot of reactors LB reactions build their channel very rapidly so they like reacting to LB. Most of them barely recognize the talent which is sad. I believe LB will have a small tour in Europe but it might be some time before they hit the US, if ever. Similar to Unlucky Morpheus, they seem content with smaller venues and not striving for high recognition. Add in that metal just isn’t that popular.
