The music video for "Nameless Warrior" was released after it was announced that band founder and leader Miho (bass) had left the band and LOVEBITES would be going on hiatus. The video contained a strong message, "We will be back." It must have been deeply moving for them to perform this song at their revival concert two years later.
Ohhhhh, no kidding. See now this is exactly what I was hoping to find out. This meaning just boosted the value of the song to me. Thanks so much! 🐺 Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
LOVEBITES - Nameless Warrior [live] lyrics: This is it, Living under the destiny to fight My doubts layin' silent in past Arm myself, I am ready to take the step into enemies Will you give it up?
What do you feel under the darkness? I search for light that I have never seen, Stare inside, I know it's somewhere Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight This is the beginning They will not see me surrender Bringing back memories I'll never let it go Now is the time we'll never forget Nameless warrior Hide the light that I found in my path I call it ''faith'' for now That is all left for me Shivering, too afraid of the night but I believe myself This is up to me [!] The truth and lies are in the mirror I search for light that I have never seen Stare inside, I know it's somewhere Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight This is the beginning They will not see me surrender Take my hand, I'll be there and never let it go Now is the time we'll never forget Nameless warrior No time for looking in past now Fears vanishing into the sky... SOLOs: Broken piece of a soul Never heal in the rain And will there be end to this? Flaming up inside of me Giving me insanity The memories fading in my head and now I'm fallin' SOLO: both What do you feel under the darkness? I search for light that I have never seen Stare inside, I know it's somewhere Taking step the way I believe Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight This is the beginning They will not see me surrender Bringing back memories I'll never let it go Now is the time we'll never forget Nameless warrior ----- lyrics: asami music: asami, midori, miyako, haruna & Mao album: In The Beginning 2017 - 2021
Follow up a bit later in my viewing - the one star cymbal in the front of the kit actually spins. Haruna sometimes spins it at the beginning of a song. All of the ladies will occasionally spin it if they are close to it and have a moment - particularly Asami.
I love that. I have learned a ton about this and I am actually honored and flattered that you all are watching and following along. Thanks so much for checking this out, adding that info and supporting the channel. Cheers. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
It's a mortal sin to have two of the best guitarist, one of the best drummer, and one of the best bassist, lovebites rule, and i heard that lovebites are going to the US next year by september, lovebits rules!!!!
Good compact comments👍. I got goosebumps too. Epic and mind boggling performance. Sounds in fullness, satisfaction. Haruna clean high speed and assume all cymbals been touched in this song, so amazing. Lovebites a living legend 👍🤘🤘💪
yes goosebumps and tears every time even after 2 straight years of watching lovebites daily-before you dive into the unbelievable back catalogue you should check the 3rd release from this show JUDGEMENT DAY and yes haruna is mental just like the rest of the bunch!
There is no end to this dive and I am not upset, not even a little bit. I cannot get enough. Thanks so much for the support! Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Wait. “Judgement Day” from this show is also an official (and probably final) release. No back catalogue just yet. I’m in a hotel in Sapporo having seen the Judgement Day tour gig here. If they record one of these shows, then this level of performance is but a warm up. As for Fami, that bass riff is not for beginners. And you were right, tonight her stage presence was incredible. MiyaKO not MiyaKU 🙂
Always the leader of the PACK, LOL. The Pack is jealous but in a good way. They have confirmed ProfPower Fest for 2024, so they will be in the US next year and I get to catch them and satisfy my BUCKET-LIST and they need to be on everyone's list if they are a true music lover.
I think someone else has already posted a message... Congratulations to all the American LOVEBITES fans. They go. It has been decided that he will be participating in "@ProgPowerUSA" next September. It's a shame that it's not a tour, but it's LOVEBITES' first time landing in America.
I’m sure they will not travel several thousands of miles to appear in one concert, which I think is a hour appearance. I’m hoping it’s more !!!!! Standby!!!!{🤘🐺🤘!!!!!
Besides her superb technical skills, Haruna's most understated genius is her efficiency and stamina ... not just in completing a 6-minute song, but to continue at such pace during those 2-hour long blistering concerts! Asami benefits hugely by having two shred Queens who can solo for minutes, hence giving her voice some much need rest. Their bassist mostly performs at a relaxed pace, but even their 20-year old youngster Fami previousl mentioned she had to start jogging to keep pace with her "thoroughbred" bandmates in order to survive their upcoming concerts. "Looks are deceiving" especially applies to Haruna, as you see mostly smiles, no facial grimacing, no wild or wasted arm movements, and literally no sweat! (Has anyone seen Haruna sweat?). How can a 4' 9" drummer play such a huge drum kit and double-kick at such unrelenting pace throughout an entire concert? No one can answser this better than her, that's why I hope that she starts her drum channel or academy one day.
This has been my amazement since I discovered these ladies. Now, my fist reaction I was like, ok, Im hooked they are fast and heavy, what else.......second reaction: wait, they are still fast and heavy, fine.....Third reaction: ok, this is their way, how on earth can they do this night after night at this speed and intensity?! Yet, they do. This is why they are a force to be reckoned with. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
I discovered LOVEBITES exactly a year ago and I found them surreal. How can such a band exist that transcends gender, genre, and geography that can so consistently compose song after song of such excellence (with lyrics that resonate globally) ... plus display such elite musicianship and physical stamina in their live performances ... and yes, in heels! What should perhaps "scare" you is that you are yet to discover some of masterpieces that they alone can perform. In time, you'll discover that my last statement is no exaggeration. They truly inspire me beyond words.
Harupi is a machine on the drums, he always uses many arrangements and characteristic hits of the cymbals. Lovebites will be in the USA in September 2024!!!
@@DaneBramageROCKS Recommendation time 😊. A new power metal band from Germany called All For Metal, they're high energy, cheesy and a lot of fun, the way a European power metal band should be. They've just released a single from their debut album that was released last year. The song is called Goddess Of War. It's brilliant... 🤘🤘
Yeah a bit late, but we forgive you. You are playing our Metal Queens. Twenty months as my favorite band. Are they happy being back in concert or what? All the ladies are smiles and it's great to see. Haruna such a great percussionist.
Twist my arm! Lol. Ok, I give.... I'll keep on. Fer real though, I am immersed, heavily. As long as I am doing this, they will be on here. (Even though I don't get monitized for LB reactions 😭 ) oh well, more to come.....for the ladies! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
It’s great to see Haruna get some love. This was a masterclass of a drumming performance. The star cymbals are not percussively functional. But they’re Haruna’s trademark and sometimes she reaches over and spins one of them with her drumstick at the start of some of their songs.
AWESOME! I always give the drummer love. I believe they are the heartbeat (no pun.....ok, maybe a little) of the band. Especially those who perform like her, my goodness. Love those cymbals, she has her own little signature. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna's star symbols are only decorative and are associated with her previous band. The one in front of her works like a spin-wheel and a good luck charm, and she spins it (usually) before the start of each song.🤘🐺🤘
You think they were happy to be back..LIVE on stage with the Wolfpack that just worship these insanely talented women!!!!!!!!!!! Fami is so happy that smile could light the venue all by itself. A few subtle changes in the new LB, more bass time (Miho never got any real shine time and perhaps the ladies want Fami to be welcomed quickly by giving her those shine moments), next Miyako is much more animated moving around on stage, still stoic looking as she really believes the music makes the statement for the musician (her new LP of great metal songs reworked into classical piano pieces is proof of that), Asami continues to be the stage Napoleon controlling the crowd, the band and driving the entire show from start to finish, Finally, Haruna has gone completely nuts and you hear her so much better here than other shows as well (There are MMA fighters who wish they hit as fast, as hard and as long as she does on that poor kit...you actually feel pity for that poor Pearl set). Now we learn they are coming to the US next September for the ProgPower Fest, meaning they likely will be extending that to include other venues in the US.....they are simply a BUCKET-LIST treat for any real music lover!!!!!
I could not get enough of Fami's smile. I mean, with here background and then to be named the bands new badass.....I mean basses, what an honor. And, to be honest, I could care less if an artist dances, smiles, stands still, whatever, as long as internally she is having fun, concentrating on her masterful skill, and delivering a performance like that, she can keep on keeping on! That is why we love her the way she is!! Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Here is the lineup so far for the festival : The confirmed line-up is: Friday, September 6 Amorphis (Finland) Lovebites (Japan) Soen (Sweden) Elegy (The Netherlands) Fifth Angel (USA) Striker (Canada) Saturday, September 7 Winger (USA) - Performing their Pull album, in its entirety. Pagan's Mind (Norway) Damian Wilson (UK) Eleine (Sweden) Disillusion (Germany) Frozen Crown (Italy)
Star of Haruna. This is the one she has been using since just before she formed LOVEBITES. The star is made to rotate, but you don't actually hit it, but you play with it by rotating it with the stick when the song starts playing. Sometimes you can see other members such as Asami getting close and rotating them. I think this star is probably Haruna's mascot or a lucky charm. ---------- from Nippon *This is a text using Google Translate. I hope I conveyed my intentions correctly.
Beautifully done and thanks so much for this information. This clears up what that star means and I am now even a bigger fan for having known this information. Thanks so much. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna (drums)'s hobby is making small items using clay, and she also has a mail-order business on her page. One day, thinking that she could reuse a cymbal that was no longer usable as a musical instrument, she brought it to a local factory and had it processed into a star shape. Since then, the star cymbal has become Haruna's trademark. And since the drummer of another band also wanted a star cymbal, he added it to his mail order product lineup.
If I remember correctly, Haruna's stars are made from cymbals she had broken over the years. A friend took the cymbals and made them into stars, surprising her with them. So they are her trademark somewhat...
Yeah I am glad that I had a great amount of response to that, I had no idea until I just happened to see it and was intrigued. How fun. Signature for sure, in my mind! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
I've heard that the reason Haruna only uses one bass drum is because she's petite. But recently, I heard that she is also trying to practice kicking two bass drums. ---------- from Nippon *This is a text using Google Translate. I hope I conveyed my intentions correctly.
Love this band so much. Miyako - rhymes with toe 😊😊. Good to see Haruna getting attention and deservedly so. Perhaps we need a new song rating system based on goose bumps. 😂😂
Every single member of Lovebites is worldclass on her instrument (counting voice as an instrument) and their composition skills are worldclass,, too. These are absolutely exceptional musicians.
excellent reaction, if you look at the mv you will see the story of the first 5 years of the band , this was written after Miho had left ,I and many people think it is a goodbye to Miho , I remember that in many bands when a member leaves the goodbyes look like insults , maybe the LOVEBITES if a member leaves they write a song in his honor ?
"when", not "after". This was also the last song, they've recorded together with Miho! But sure, it's reminiscent of the Miho era 2017 - 2021, as seen in the OMV...
That was absolutely AWESOME!! Thank you for coming back to LOVEBITES. Spot on, they are untouchable talent. To play as fast as they do, and so precise. I have to imagine it is not easy being Asami. She's putting out many lyrics quickly to keep in sync. My favorite band of all time, hands down! Keep it going! Really think you should try a curveball; better yet, a changeup after all fadtballs. A Frozen Serenade live 2021. You'll see what I mean. Jaw-dropping MASTERPIECE. 🤘
At this point, I'm not sure I can stay away. I agree but I'm not sure it's not easy being any of them. I don't know how they do that, non-stop, night after night. My goodness. Thanks for the change up. I couldn't find that song in their channel (well, just audio) but I think I found it on another one. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
@DaneBramageROCKS Correct, not on their channel. Really hope you react to it. 2 things to consider when you're jaw drops: 1. They are a heavy metal band and they do THAT in the middle of their concert 2. It's freaking LIVE PS. Miyako's nearly 5mos pregnant during this show; she's a beast. This is with former bassist Miho. A song for every playlist PERIOD. So excited if you do this!!! 🤘
Hallo friend. Ive heard someone say Midori is competing in "Fitness". I dont know if that ia a "branch" on the bodybuilding thing or if its the same.. I think about the two guitarists you can say that Miako is both stoic. But I think what differs the two most is that one is introvert and one is more outgoing. Some other Reactors sometimes makes the the accusation that Miyako looks uninterested or doesn't bring a show as Midori. But speaking bymyself as an introvert. I can say its more about different personalities. Just as it can differ between nationalities. If you for an example compare Shy and more introvert Swedish people against the more outgoing Americans. I love that people are different and all is precious. Sometimes it gets so obvius tho :) Much love from Stockholm Sweden/ Jonny
Yeah so, I was totally ok with her because this is just her way. What I love about it is exactly that, I love her for that and being that way because its her in her element. It's fantastic. Thanks so much for the input and comment. Cheers. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Asami's voice is lower in the mix when she goes in her lower vocal range. The mix in the concert is set for the majority of the time that she is Soaring above everything with that clear high tone. But in some songs, like this one, she starts in her lower register and then builds to her normal range. The parts of *_this_* song when she is in her higher register she is easy to hear and understand. BTW - a couple of times I think I heard you say Miyaku .. it is Miyako. Also, since you are obviously a Huge Haruna Fan - Haruna Fun Fact . . When she looks into the crowd and holds her hand cupped to her ear, the crowd responds HARUPI!. To fans she is their Harupi Sweet Chu, since she was in Destrose with Miho - before Lovebites. 🤘🐺🐺🐺🤘
Well I'll be darned (with the Haruna news!!) Thanks for that information. I cannot get enough of what you all know and I love it all. Even though it feels like a firehouse to the face, I'm trying to absorb it all! Thanks for the pronunciation BTW. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Thank you for your reaction. LOVEBITES to perform at USA festival! PROGPOWER USA 2024 Atlanta Friday, September 6, 2024 Second Headliner On 17 August 2021, LOVEBITES took an extended break after the departure of their leader, bassist Miho. The remaining girls organised an audition for a new bassist from around the world and recruited a new bassist called Fami(Ba). Fami is a five-string bassist who can dance, sing and play and has 677,000 UA-cam subscribers. You will be amazed by new bassist Fami's slapping and fast finger picking. If you watch "Alien Alien" on her UA-cam channel, which was uploaded 4 years ago with 10,850,000 listens on her content, you will be amazed at her world-class slapping skills.

Great reaction and analysis. For still being in learning mode you are very much on top of a lot of the details. Individually, each of them is elite at their role. I can't think of any other five-piece band, ever, that was this strong at every position. The only band I can think of that was so strong across the board was Cream, and they were a three-piece.
Thanks so much. I do my best to speak well on bands I support. These ladies are insanely good and a blast to watch and listen to. I'm here for it. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Si te gustan los buenos bateristas quedate en japon y busca a la baterista junna te va a encantar hay tambien hay energía te la recomiendo es una de mis favoritas saludos desde chile
De hecho, tengo un par de videos de Junna en mi lista de reproducción. Voy a empezar una serie llamada Drummers Circle o Drummers Corner o algo así, donde reacciono solo ante los bateristas. ¡¡Ella estará en eso!!
I have recently learned that Haruna (the little big engine) and Akane (the gorilla) from Band Maid are good friends and go out to eat together, makes me wonder do they compare notes?? maybe why they are both so good
Enjoyed the reaction. I don't know.....both kick drums are miced, which would lead me to believe Haruna's using both. By the way, if you want to see what Miho's up to now, check out Chaos Control and their song "The Legacy Within". Great band, and they could really use some exposure.
Ok, I'll check them out. But, I was led to think Miho needed a break? I was not aware she joined another band. Can you elaborate please?! I am learning.... Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Miho never elaborated why she left. There has been fan speculation, as is human nature. But no one other than Miho and perhaps those close to her knows the real reason. But I'm glad to see she's still active in music. In addition to Chaos Control, she's worked with quite a few well known artists in the J-Rock/Metal scene including vocalist, Maki Oyama.
Haruna's star cymbal is supposed to be a teenager, there is a video that can be confirmed. Also, her professional musician career dates back a few years from there. She was young and a genius.😄
I know you'll be looking into their back catalog (which is incredible), but I have a feeling that if you're delving in the MVs you might like 'Stand and Deliver - Shoot 'Em Down', from the 'Judgement Day' album. It shows some great coverage of the band messing around in the studio. They also did a web broadcast of that album launch, with the band members listening at home on a split screen. Their antics in 'Lost In The Garden' and 'Soldier Stands Solitarily' are well worth watching. Miyako can be quite different from the way she seems on stage.
Oh wow. Yeah I have a lot to do and discover. I have been getting the fire hose in the face treatment for a handful of bands but this band is incredible and gets me excited to learn and explore. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna is a member of the army of first-class female drummers. They all have their strengths and fit to band and or music genre. I would never say she is the best. In music, no one is the best. Whether x or y is better depends on your taste, which style of playing you prefer.
You know, this is an amazing point. I agree with you 100% and the thing about me is that I get caught up in the moment so well that everything I hear, especially from her, is my new favorite. But, she leaves a lasting impression so that says a lot, IMO. With that being said, I still have a ton to discover, but credit is given where credit is due, and here we are. Thanks a ton for the comment, support, and wondering input. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Haruna. Hmm, I don't know what it's made of, but one thing is for sure. This little powerhouse never gets tired. My back hurts... unconscious little lady. He doesn't even know what it's made of.
You’re correct that HARUPI plays a double pedal on a single drum. She posted a photo of her kit on stage taken from her point of view. The second, smaller bass drum and the star cymbals are just for show. FAMI *is* a nickname, given by her family because as a kid she loved Family Mart, a Japanese convenience store.
I've heard an (unconfirmed) rumor today among the wolfpack fanpage. That Fami goes under the Nickname "Shining Fingers" in the band. Yet to see if it will stick to be the nickname she will have. As all others allready have theirs. In any case an absolutely awsome bassist. Togetherwith "The silent assassin" Misa in bandmaid. These two are my favorite female bassists in the world...
"They have had their shred fest." Every single Lovebites song. 😀😎 So great for you to keep reminding us to listen to Haruna. Sadly, she often gets overlooked by reaction channels. Not sure how interested you would be to go back and watch some of their first live performance's from Lovebites? For me, they have a less produced, raw sound and obviously not the same light and stage effects in later performances but I find that preferable. You may not but either way, you can't fault the Lovebites ladies. ❤ A good example of what I mean can be found by searching Lovebites Wacken Shadowmaker.
Yeah I can't help it, I favor drummers. And she is almost impossible (to me) not to hear. I also have a lot to check out and I absolutely plan on going back and seeing their roots. I'm excited for it.
For me, a drummer who is 4'10" tall is the tallest - to use the phrase "big, bigger, Haruna"! The whole band is incredibly great, but without their founder (together with the retired Miho), this incredible one Drummer, this reserved, almost shy-seeming Haruna, what I consider to be the best power metal band in the world at the moment, lacked the musical heart. A heart that beats, beats and beats for a long time, at an impressive speed, over incredibly impressive concerts!
I completely agree with you about how little Asami is heard. What's more, if we take into account the other concert DVDs, this is one of the worst in terms of mix. I love Lovebites, but unfortunately the audio of this concert is a step backwards in terms of the quality to which we are normally accustomed. When you listen to previous material you will understand what I mean. Anyway, excellent reaction as always. Thank you.
Ohhh, well shoot. That's kind of good though because I can compare. Either way, watching is still just the best. My headphones aren't the greatest either. Thanks so much for the comment and compliment! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
2024年の9月にアメリカのロックフェスPROGPOWER USA2024に行くことが決まったみたいですね。 It seems that it has been decided that you will be going to the American rock festival PROGPOWER USA2024 in September 2024.
Nice reaction... about haruna....she's using both pedals nothing in her set it's just for a look she uses all set drums with no exceptions and bot foot ar in two pedals ...She is my best and preferite drummer with no doubt...Midori and Miyako are no sense guitars players i have never saw so much skills on guitars players especially in a live concert...But hear fami bas...woooowww she is a born Lovebites player now she knows and find a band ho can show all her talent. Asami in my opinion she is THE VOICE of Heavy Metal she is unique and cant be compared to other singher she is Asami ..
Hi. if you really want to react to Haruna drumming (and drums set ). then react to THIS video : ua-cam.com/video/9Rpb1WCayIs/v-deo.html. this video is 3 statics cameras focused on Haruna. for the full song. and the mix is also drum focused. the song is "raise some hell". but of course because of drum focus mix the other instruments and vocal are in background. but you can definitively see the Little Big Engine enjoying a full song.
As much as I like Haruna, I would put her in the top 5 of my list! Setting aside Neil Peart and Mike Portnoy, there is one drummer better than Haruna in Japan, and she is Senri Gawaguchi. She is streets ahead of Haruna!
Well, just subscribe to another channel! Thanks for pointing out Senri, I am actually going to start doing drummer reactions and such as well. But, so far, I agree, Haruna is also my top 5. I LOVE Neil because I am human, lol. But, Danny Carey and Shannon Larkin are also on that list, for me! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna is also known as the (Pocket Nuke). Excellent reaction!!!!! Dive into some more Japanese music!!!!! Do some more "LOVEBITES", "NEMOPHILA", "GACHARIC SPIN"!!!!!
Holy crap, I don't know how I am going to make it through all this, lol....Pocket Nuke?! Whoa, that is AMAZING! I call her Little Big "Jet" Engine now. Lol. Thanks for the recs, on it.... Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

The music video for "Nameless Warrior" was released after it was announced that band founder and leader Miho (bass) had left the band and LOVEBITES would be going on hiatus. The video contained a strong message, "We will be back."
It must have been deeply moving for them to perform this song at their revival concert two years later.
Ohhhhh, no kidding. See now this is exactly what I was hoping to find out. This meaning just boosted the value of the song to me. Thanks so much! 🐺 Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

LOVEBITES - Nameless Warrior [live] lyrics:
This is it, Living under the destiny to fight
My doubts layin' silent in past
Arm myself, I am ready to take the step into enemies
Will you give it up?
What do you feel under the darkness?
I search for light that I have never seen,
Stare inside, I know it's somewhere
Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight
This is the beginning
They will not see me surrender
Bringing back memories
I'll never let it go
Now is the time we'll never forget
Nameless warrior
Hide the light that I found in my path
I call it ''faith'' for now
That is all left for me
Shivering, too afraid of the night but I believe myself
This is up to me [!]
The truth and lies are in the mirror
I search for light that I have never seen
Stare inside, I know it's somewhere
Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight
This is the beginning
They will not see me surrender
Take my hand, I'll be there and never let it go
Now is the time we'll never forget
Nameless warrior
No time for looking in past now
Fears vanishing into the sky...
SOLOs:
Broken piece of a soul
Never heal in the rain
And will there be end to this?
Flaming up inside of me
Giving me insanity
The memories fading in my head and now I'm fallin'
SOLO: both
What do you feel under the darkness?
I search for light that I have never seen
Stare inside, I know it's somewhere
Taking step the way I believe
Glorious innocence shined by the moonlight
This is the beginning
They will not see me surrender
Bringing back memories
I'll never let it go
Now is the time we'll never forget
Nameless warrior

yes goosebumps and tears every time even after 2 straight years of watching lovebites daily-before you dive into the unbelievable back catalogue you should check the 3rd release from this show JUDGEMENT DAY and yes haruna is mental just like the rest of the bunch!

Welcome to Wolfpack 🐺 Love Lovebites , this is very , very happy//positive band . Keep smiling😍
Smiling will not be a problem! 🤘🏻
Wait. “Judgement Day” from this show is also an official (and probably final) release. No back catalogue just yet. I’m in a hotel in Sapporo having seen the Judgement Day tour gig here. If they record one of these shows, then this level of performance is but a warm up. As for Fami, that bass riff is not for beginners. And you were right, tonight her stage presence was incredible. MiyaKO not MiyaKU 🙂
Alek, please make us more jealous and tell us how does it sound the Dissonance and the SSS in live? 😀
Alek you are the best , for me the best wolf in the wolfpack 🐺💯🤘
🤘🐺🤘
Always the leader of the PACK, LOL. The Pack is jealous but in a good way. They have confirmed ProfPower Fest for 2024, so they will be in the US next year and I get to catch them and satisfy my BUCKET-LIST and they need to be on everyone's list if they are a true music lover.
@@metal_lover Atlanta right? I have someone hoping to secure me a ticket 🙂🐺🇯🇵🎸💪🏼🎸🦁🎸🎹🥁🥰🎤👸
I think someone else has already posted a message... Congratulations to all the American LOVEBITES fans. They go. It has been decided that he will be participating in "@ProgPowerUSA" next September. It's a shame that it's not a tour, but it's LOVEBITES' first time landing in America.
I’m sure the closer we get to 2024 more information might be released about future shows, so just think positively I’m sure this is just the beginning
I’m sure they will not travel several thousands of miles to appear in one concert, which I think is a hour appearance. I’m hoping it’s more !!!!! Standby!!!!{🤘🐺🤘!!!!!
Either way, it's a start to get them to play here. I'm ready. 🤘🏻🐺🥁
Besides her superb technical skills, Haruna's most understated genius is her efficiency and stamina ... not just in completing a 6-minute song, but to continue at such pace during those 2-hour long blistering concerts! Asami benefits hugely by having two shred Queens who can solo for minutes, hence giving her voice some much need rest. Their bassist mostly performs at a relaxed pace, but even their 20-year old youngster Fami previousl mentioned she had to start jogging to keep pace with her "thoroughbred" bandmates in order to survive their upcoming concerts.
"Looks are deceiving" especially applies to Haruna, as you see mostly smiles, no facial grimacing, no wild or wasted arm movements, and literally no sweat! (Has anyone seen Haruna sweat?). How can a 4' 9" drummer play such a huge drum kit and double-kick at such unrelenting pace throughout an entire concert? No one can answser this better than her, that's why I hope that she starts her drum channel or academy one day.
This has been my amazement since I discovered these ladies. Now, my fist reaction I was like, ok, Im hooked they are fast and heavy, what else.......second reaction: wait, they are still fast and heavy, fine.....Third reaction: ok, this is their way, how on earth can they do this night after night at this speed and intensity?! Yet, they do. This is why they are a force to be reckoned with. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
I discovered LOVEBITES exactly a year ago and I found them surreal. How can such a band exist that transcends gender, genre, and geography that can so consistently compose song after song of such excellence (with lyrics that resonate globally) ... plus display such elite musicianship and physical stamina in their live performances ... and yes, in heels!
What should perhaps "scare" you is that you are yet to discover some of masterpieces that they alone can perform. In time, you'll discover that my last statement is no exaggeration. They truly inspire me beyond words.
Harupi is a machine on the drums, he always uses many arrangements and characteristic hits of the cymbals. Lovebites will be in the USA in September 2024!!!
Yeah, a little big "jet" engine, if you will. 😂.....I'm ready to see them live! 🐺🐺🐺 Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Rapid, high energy, fun song. Loved it... 🤘🤘
All the things! Thank you! 🤘🏻🐺🤘🏻
@@DaneBramageROCKS
Recommendation time 😊.
A new power metal band from Germany called All For Metal, they're high energy, cheesy and a lot of fun, the way a European power metal band should be. They've just released a single from their debut album that was released last year. The song is called Goddess Of War. It's brilliant... 🤘🤘
@@stebow1977 Excellent. I'll check them out! Thanks.
Yeah a bit late, but we forgive you. You are playing our Metal Queens. Twenty months as my favorite band. Are they happy being back in concert or what? All the ladies are smiles and it's great to see. Haruna such a great percussionist.
Late is how I operate! 😂 But it's all good, I give energy to those who deserve it and I believe in. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Great reaction, thank you, they're the best, no doubt, carry on, tons to go, amazing 👍👍
Oh there is more to come! As long as I am working on this channel!! Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Great reaction bro, please continue reacting and supporting Lovebites. These ladies are world class talents and they deserve worldwide recognition.
Twist my arm! Lol. Ok, I give.... I'll keep on. Fer real though, I am immersed, heavily. As long as I am doing this, they will be on here. (Even though I don't get monitized for LB reactions 😭 ) oh well, more to come.....for the ladies! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
It’s great to see Haruna get some love. This was a masterclass of a drumming performance. The star cymbals are not percussively functional. But they’re Haruna’s trademark and sometimes she reaches over and spins one of them with her drumstick at the start of some of their songs.
AWESOME! I always give the drummer love. I believe they are the heartbeat (no pun.....ok, maybe a little) of the band. Especially those who perform like her, my goodness. Love those cymbals, she has her own little signature. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna's star symbols are only decorative and are associated with her previous band. The one in front of her works like a spin-wheel and a good luck charm, and she spins it (usually) before the start of each song.🤘🐺🤘
Friggin Amazing! Thanks so much for providing that information! Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
LOVEBITES will perform at PROGPOWER USA 2024!
I'm ready! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Alright, I'll add it to the list! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
@@DaneBramageROCKS Thanks! 🤘
You think they were happy to be back..LIVE on stage with the Wolfpack that just worship these insanely talented women!!!!!!!!!!! Fami is so happy that smile could light the venue all by itself. A few subtle changes in the new LB, more bass time (Miho never got any real shine time and perhaps the ladies want Fami to be welcomed quickly by giving her those shine moments), next Miyako is much more animated moving around on stage, still stoic looking as she really believes the music makes the statement for the musician (her new LP of great metal songs reworked into classical piano pieces is proof of that), Asami continues to be the stage Napoleon controlling the crowd, the band and driving the entire show from start to finish, Finally, Haruna has gone completely nuts and you hear her so much better here than other shows as well (There are MMA fighters who wish they hit as fast, as hard and as long as she does on that poor kit...you actually feel pity for that poor Pearl set). Now we learn they are coming to the US next September for the ProgPower Fest, meaning they likely will be extending that to include other venues in the US.....they are simply a BUCKET-LIST treat for any real music lover!!!!!
I could not get enough of Fami's smile. I mean, with here background and then to be named the bands new badass.....I mean basses, what an honor. And, to be honest, I could care less if an artist dances, smiles, stands still, whatever, as long as internally she is having fun, concentrating on her masterful skill, and delivering a performance like that, she can keep on keeping on! That is why we love her the way she is!! Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Haruna already had the star ⭐️ cymbals when she was in her former metal band Destrose! 🤘
Yeah, I came to learn that! Love this. Thanks so much.... Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Harmonic bass and drum... Yesss
It's awesome right?!
Star of Haruna.
This is the one she has been using since just before she formed LOVEBITES. The star is made to rotate, but you don't actually hit it, but you play with it by rotating it with the stick when the song starts playing. Sometimes you can see other members such as Asami getting close and rotating them. I think this star is probably Haruna's mascot or a lucky charm.

Beautifully done and thanks so much for this information. This clears up what that star means and I am now even a bigger fan for having known this information. Thanks so much. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna (drums)'s hobby is making small items using clay, and she also has a mail-order business on her page. One day, thinking that she could reuse a cymbal that was no longer usable as a musical instrument, she brought it to a local factory and had it processed into a star shape. Since then, the star cymbal has become Haruna's trademark.
And since the drummer of another band also wanted a star cymbal, he added it to his mail order product lineup.
These Ladies are friggin amazing, they have come back locked and loaded, they continue to raise the bar, love them
I don't know if anyone can even reach that bar. Fine with me! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
they are definitely a tough act to follow, these Ladies are good@@DaneBramageROCKS
If I remember correctly, Haruna's stars are made from cymbals she had broken over the years. A friend took the cymbals and made them into stars, surprising her with them. So they are her trademark somewhat...
Yeah I am glad that I had a great amount of response to that, I had no idea until I just happened to see it and was intrigued. How fun. Signature for sure, in my mind! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
I've heard that the reason Haruna only uses one bass drum is because she's petite. But recently, I heard that she is also trying to practice kicking two bass drums.

This band is AWESOME!! I need to get back on it actually, more to come right after the new year!
@@DaneBramageROCKS awesome
@@DaneBramageROCKS i have a a original Plektrums of the Series from Miyako ( the black Hair).
Love this band so much. Miyako - rhymes with toe 😊😊. Good to see Haruna getting attention and deservedly so. Perhaps we need a new song rating system based on goose bumps. 😂😂
Well, if we rated songs in goosebumps, they would be billboard #1 all the time! Almost fainted, lol. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Every single member of Lovebites is worldclass on her instrument (counting voice as an instrument) and their composition skills are worldclass,, too.
These are absolutely exceptional musicians.
For real, its so real that it is almost unreal!! AMAZING
you surely have been bitten. thank you for this great reaction.
🐺 got me good! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
excellent reaction, if you look at the mv you will see the story of the first 5 years of the band , this was written after Miho had left ,I and many people think it is a goodbye to Miho , I remember that in many bands when a member leaves the goodbyes look like insults , maybe the LOVEBITES if a member leaves they write a song in his honor ?
"when", not "after". This was also the last song, they've recorded together with Miho! But sure, it's reminiscent of the Miho era 2017 - 2021, as seen in the OMV...
Yeah this is almost like an honor burial. Like how Vikings and Samurai honor the fallen?! I love it. As it should be. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
🤘🏻🔥🐺🔥🤘🏻THE BEST‼️
100% 🤘🏻🐺🤘🏻
That was absolutely AWESOME!! Thank you for coming back to LOVEBITES. Spot on, they are untouchable talent. To play as fast as they do, and so precise. I have to imagine it is not easy being Asami. She's putting out many lyrics quickly to keep in sync. My favorite band of all time, hands down! Keep it going! Really think you should try a curveball; better yet, a changeup after all fadtballs. A Frozen Serenade live 2021. You'll see what I mean. Jaw-dropping MASTERPIECE. 🤘
At this point, I'm not sure I can stay away. I agree but I'm not sure it's not easy being any of them. I don't know how they do that, non-stop, night after night. My goodness. Thanks for the change up. I couldn't find that song in their channel (well, just audio) but I think I found it on another one. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
@DaneBramageROCKS Correct, not on their channel. Really hope you react to it. 2 things to consider when you're jaw drops:
1. They are a heavy metal band and they do THAT in the middle of their concert
2. It's freaking LIVE
PS. Miyako's nearly 5mos pregnant during this show; she's a beast. This is with former bassist Miho. A song for every playlist PERIOD.
So excited if you do this!!! 🤘

Hallo friend.
Ive heard someone say Midori is competing in "Fitness". I dont know if that ia a "branch" on the bodybuilding thing or if its the same..
I think about the two guitarists you can say that Miako is both stoic. But I think what differs the two most is that one is introvert and one is more outgoing. Some other Reactors sometimes makes the the accusation that Miyako looks uninterested or doesn't bring a show as Midori. But speaking bymyself as an introvert. I can say its more about different personalities. Just as it can differ between nationalities. If you for an example compare Shy and more introvert Swedish people against the more outgoing Americans. I love that people are different and all is precious. Sometimes it gets so obvius tho :)
Much love from Stockholm Sweden/ Jonny
Yeah so, I was totally ok with her because this is just her way. What I love about it is exactly that, I love her for that and being that way because its her in her element. It's fantastic. Thanks so much for the input and comment. Cheers. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Hi from France and from a huge Lovebites fan
Hello there! Welcome
Fami, the happiest bassist on Planet Earth! 🤩
I would be as well! 🤘🏻
Asami's voice is lower in the mix when she goes in her lower vocal range. The mix in the concert is set for the majority of the time that she is Soaring above everything with that clear high tone. But in some songs, like this one, she starts in her lower register and then builds to her normal range. The parts of *_this_* song when she is in her higher register she is easy to hear and understand. BTW - a couple of times I think I heard you say Miyaku .. it is Miyako. Also, since you are obviously a Huge Haruna Fan - Haruna Fun Fact . . When she looks into the crowd and holds her hand cupped to her ear, the crowd responds HARUPI!. To fans she is their Harupi Sweet Chu, since she was in Destrose with Miho - before Lovebites. 🤘🐺🐺🐺🤘
Well I'll be darned (with the Haruna news!!) Thanks for that information. I cannot get enough of what you all know and I love it all. Even though it feels like a firehouse to the face, I'm trying to absorb it all! Thanks for the pronunciation BTW. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Second Headliner
On 17 August 2021, LOVEBITES took an extended break after the departure of their leader, bassist Miho.
The remaining girls organised an audition for a new bassist from around the world and recruited a new bassist called Fami(Ba).
Fami is a five-string bassist who can dance, sing and play and has 677,000 UA-cam subscribers.
You will be amazed by new bassist Fami's slapping and fast finger picking. If you watch "Alien Alien" on her UA-cam channel, which was uploaded 4 years ago with 10,850,000 listens on her content, you will be amazed at her world-class slapping skills.
UA-cam channel "Fami。"

Fami signed a contact for the "Bacchus Handmade Series signature headless bass WOODLINE5AC-HL Fami" at the age of 19.
Fami is currently 21 years old.

Great reaction and analysis. For still being in learning mode you are very much on top of a lot of the details. Individually, each of them is elite at their role. I can't think of any other five-piece band, ever, that was this strong at every position. The only band I can think of that was so strong across the board was Cream, and they were a three-piece.

@@chadludewig8775 keep me in touch! I plan on seeing them as well. Can't friggin wait.
I have recently learned that Haruna (the little big engine) and Akane (the gorilla) from Band Maid are good friends and go out to eat together, makes me wonder do they compare notes?? maybe why they are both so good
That's awesome.
Enjoyed the reaction. I don't know.....both kick drums are miced, which would lead me to believe Haruna's using both. By the way, if you want to see what Miho's up to now, check out Chaos Control and their song "The Legacy Within". Great band, and they could really use some exposure.
Ok, I'll check them out. But, I was led to think Miho needed a break? I was not aware she joined another band. Can you elaborate please?! I am learning.... Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Miho never elaborated why she left. There has been fan speculation, as is human nature. But no one other than Miho and perhaps those close to her knows the real reason. But I'm glad to see she's still active in music. In addition to Chaos Control, she's worked with quite a few well known artists in the J-Rock/Metal scene including vocalist, Maki Oyama.
@@snakewhisperer1 happy learn this as well. I dig in and thanks for sharing this info. Cheers
Haruna is the beast..

Absolutely 🐺🤘🏻🐺
Haruna's star cymbal is supposed to be a teenager, there is a video that can be confirmed. Also, her professional musician career dates back a few years from there. She was young and a genius.😄
Oh wow! Ok. She was and remains a genius. Love these cymbals, have a good back story to them. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
I know you'll be looking into their back catalog (which is incredible), but I have a feeling that if you're delving in the MVs you might like 'Stand and Deliver - Shoot 'Em Down', from the 'Judgement Day' album. It shows some great coverage of the band messing around in the studio.
They also did a web broadcast of that album launch, with the band members listening at home on a split screen. Their antics in 'Lost In The Garden' and 'Soldier Stands Solitarily' are well worth watching. Miyako can be quite different from the way she seems on stage.
Oh wow. Yeah I have a lot to do and discover. I have been getting the fire hose in the face treatment for a handful of bands but this band is incredible and gets me excited to learn and explore. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Sweet! It's on the list.... Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Haruna is a member of the army of first-class female drummers. They all have their strengths and fit to band and or music genre. I would never say she is the best. In music, no one is the best. Whether x or y is better depends on your taste, which style of playing you prefer.
You know, this is an amazing point. I agree with you 100% and the thing about me is that I get caught up in the moment so well that everything I hear, especially from her, is my new favorite. But, she leaves a lasting impression so that says a lot, IMO. With that being said, I still have a ton to discover, but credit is given where credit is due, and here we are. Thanks a ton for the comment, support, and wondering input. Cheers, Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Haruna is the best! 🤘🏻🐺
I just love how happy fami looks
I do as well!
🤘
🐺💪🤘🏻🤘🏻 Keep on Rockin'
Haruna actually does use both bass drums 🥁. Often she uses the double pedal on the 22" bass but also uses the 20" bass on certain songs.
oh ok. I thought IU heard somewhere she used 2 pedals on one. That may have been another band though!
I was there ❤
Shut the front door! 🫨 😲 how fun was that?!
You’re correct that HARUPI plays a double pedal on a single drum. She posted a photo of her kit on stage taken from her point of view. The second, smaller bass drum and the star cymbals are just for show.
FAMI *is* a nickname, given by her family because as a kid she loved Family Mart, a Japanese convenience store.
Yeah I keep getting mixed responses, I swore she used one drum but 2 kicks. Thanks for the info on her nickname. I love it!
Pretty awesome. I miss Miho. But Fami fits so well!
I agree, and it is good that they are friends and Fami was the choice by Miho. Everything is going to be good.
Haruna uses both bass drums. Its seen clearly in other videos...
(Maybe different in different songs? )
Could be yes because I think I have seen both, still, good on her for the transitions.
Haruna's nickname is also Pocket Nuke
I love this!! Data seems to check out! 🤘🏻🐺🤘🏻
Now you are ready to their best compositions: "Chopin etude+Swan song" and "Frozen serenade"! Thank you!
Awesome!! thank you.
I've heard an (unconfirmed) rumor today among the wolfpack fanpage.
That Fami goes under the Nickname "Shining Fingers" in the band.
Yet to see if it will stick to be the nickname she will have. As all others allready have theirs.
In any case an absolutely awsome bassist.
Togetherwith "The silent assassin" Misa in bandmaid. These two are my favorite female bassists in the world...
oh nice, well rumors sometimes become reality so for now, I say we go with it! I'm sure something will come our sooner or later as she progresses!
Haruna plays a drum solo and a song breaks out.
☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🐺🐺🐺
She uses BOTH Bass drums.
Ok, I keep hearing both. Thanks for the info.
"They have had their shred fest." Every single Lovebites song. 😀😎
So great for you to keep reminding us to listen to Haruna. Sadly, she often gets overlooked by reaction channels.
Not sure how interested you would be to go back and watch some of their first live performance's from Lovebites? For me, they have a less produced, raw sound and obviously not the same light and stage effects in later performances but I find that preferable. You may not but either way, you can't fault the Lovebites ladies. ❤
A good example of what I mean can be found by searching Lovebites Wacken Shadowmaker.
Yeah I can't help it, I favor drummers. And she is almost impossible (to me) not to hear. I also have a lot to check out and I absolutely plan on going back and seeing their roots. I'm excited for it.
For me, a drummer who is 4'10" tall is the tallest - to use the phrase "big, bigger, Haruna"! The whole band is incredibly great, but without their founder (together with the retired Miho), this incredible one Drummer, this reserved, almost shy-seeming Haruna, what I consider to be the best power metal band in the world at the moment, lacked the musical heart. A heart that beats, beats and beats for a long time, at an impressive speed, over incredibly impressive concerts!
Yeah how they keep up that tempo and drive through an entire concert is something to marvel. Incredible.
I completely agree with you about how little Asami is heard. What's more, if we take into account the other concert DVDs, this is one of the worst in terms of mix. I love Lovebites, but unfortunately the audio of this concert is a step backwards in terms of the quality to which we are normally accustomed. When you listen to previous material you will understand what I mean.
Anyway, excellent reaction as always. Thank you.
Ohhh, well shoot. That's kind of good though because I can compare. Either way, watching is still just the best. My headphones aren't the greatest either. Thanks so much for the comment and compliment! Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻

Nice reaction... about haruna....she's using both pedals nothing in her set it's just for a look she uses all set drums with no exceptions and bot foot ar in two pedals ...She is my best and preferite drummer with no doubt...Midori and Miyako are no sense guitars players i have never saw so much skills on guitars players especially in a live concert...But hear fami bas...woooowww she is a born Lovebites player now she knows and find a band ho can show all her talent. Asami in my opinion she is THE VOICE of Heavy Metal she is unique and cant be compared to other singher she is Asami ..
Thank you. Yeah she is just Amazing to watch. Thanks so much for checking this out.
She is the battery
Yeah, Energizer needs a new mascot!! LOL. Keep on Rockin!! 🤘
Hi. if you really want to react to Haruna drumming (and drums set ). then react to THIS video : ua-cam.com/video/9Rpb1WCayIs/v-deo.html. this video is 3 statics cameras focused on Haruna. for the full song. and the mix is also drum focused. the song is "raise some hell". but of course because of drum focus mix the other instruments and vocal are in background. but you can definitively see the Little Big Engine enjoying a full song.
Whoa, excellent. Thank you.
日本は寿司とラーメン以外にもアメリカに次ぐ音楽マーケットがあります。メタルバンドも同様に豊富です。
これは素晴らしい情報です。これを学べば学ぶほど、向こうで発見が増えます。私はいつもより多くのバンドを見つけています。ありがとうございました。
As much as I like Haruna, I would put her in the top 5 of my list! Setting aside Neil Peart and Mike Portnoy, there is one drummer better than Haruna in Japan, and she is Senri Gawaguchi. She is streets ahead of Haruna!
Well, just subscribe to another channel! Thanks for pointing out Senri, I am actually going to start doing drummer reactions and such as well. But, so far, I agree, Haruna is also my top 5.
