It was time to head to Japan to find some new artists. We heard the heavy metal scene is really growing in Japan. We were surprised to find out that a lot of the metal band are made up of women. We weren't sure what to expect, but LOVEBITES rocked our faces off.
The lyrics are down below. We will try to do that with all of our reaction videos if we can.

Lyrics:
The blue moon colors the blaze
Stabbing myself with the thunder
The predetermined imitation
An emotionless and a fearless smile
Flowing blood and crimson blade
Devastated resolution
Hear haze is waving far away
Who's going to be sacrificed？
ON FIRE
Just like a falling flower
ON FIRE
Until this body rots away
Burning down to the Gates of Hell
Distorted madness is sneering
Incompetent, cowardly fools
A pitiful and painful punishment
It's you who will be sacrificed
ON FIRE
Dressed in an armor of steel
ON FIRE
If I'm burned again and again
I'll rise up from the Gates of Hell
The blue moon colors blaze
Stabbing myself with the thunder
The predetermined imitation
An emotionless and fearless smile
Flowing blood and crimson blade
Devastated resolution
Hear haze is waving far away
Who's going to be sacrificed?
ON FIRE
Just like a falling flower
ON FIRE
Until this body rots away
Burning down to the Gates of Hell

"Original song" from the best damned metal band out today ! Lovebites Goddesses of Metal !
Fi Tru Dat❣🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🐺🤟🙏
This is their own song. Lovebites rarely does cover songs. They write all their own music and lyrics.
Awesome! Thank you.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial But when they do a cover song, they knock it out of the park. You need to hear their version of Judas Priest "Painkiller".
@@TheCyberMantis
And Eagle Fly Free-Helloween
Their band's name is after Halestorm' s song. Only video I know that I can see the correlation between Lovebites and Halestorm is the one Asami was invited in singing their song together in UK festival.

Nice! I like those nicknames. That’s some great information. Thank you so much!
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial The nicknames were given by Asami, the vocalist, when she introduced everyone at the end of a concert in 2021. Midori gave Asami her nickname.
@Eyeosphere00 I have not checked close, but first impression was that Fami is, by far, the tallest. Actually I thought "she is too tall for Lovebites"... 😅
@@morganolsson1993 being tall or short has nothing to do with talent. what makes you the judge for who gets to play for Lovebites?
@@salsaucedo HAHAHA...did you take my comment serious?? OMG...
Welcome to lovebites, thank you for doing this reaction, for me this band are the best metal band out (male or female), this ladys are so good with their talents and skills, LOVEBITES ROCK
Their guitar work left me speechless. Thank you for rocking with us.
Welcome to the amazing world of Lovebites guys. Great reaction. This band will blow your mind over and over. Midori and Miyako are one of the greatest metal guitar duos ever. They combine the best of Slayer, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Helloween, DragonForce, and Rush into a new genre called Lovebites metal - power/thrash/speed/progressive metal. Now check out their newest song "Judgement Day" with their new bass player who just joined the band a few months ago. ua-cam.com/video/m3uGjp-P7DI/v-deo.html
Judgment Day is actually our next reaction. We look forward to many more. Thank you so much for your comments.
To add to that, rather than try to reinvent the genre, instead they evolve it. Thus the multiple different vibes within one song.
Nice reaction guys… welcome to Lovebites… next song Break the Wall live
Thank you so much. We are certainly adding more LOVEBITES reactions.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial Do not be surprised that some of the desired Lovebits songs have quite a few views. This is due to the fact that these videos were deleted again and again over 3/4 years after they had hundreds of thousands of views. Trust the fans when choosing songs.
@@gitterich deleted? Why?
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial Many videos were uploaded by fans without the consent of the LB record company. Therefore deleted from UA-cam.
Meanwhile, Lovebites' LB videos uploaded by fans are accepted for most countries in the world. Lovebites has become known worldwide through these videos and the resulting reaction videos. Other bands, such as Mary's Blood (extremely good band) have continued to pursue this erasure strategy. Mary's Blood did not become popular because of this. That's why the band broke up in April of those years.😭
@@gitterich That’s good to know. I’m in dispute on this one, so hopefully they’ll let me keep it up.
Best metal band active today in my opinion. They're amazing. The talent on stage is unbelievable. My absolute favorite band. You won't be disappointed in checking out more!
Lovebites were named for the Halestorm song. So:
Congratulations, you just found the best new metal band to come along in decades. In their first five years of existence, they put themselves on par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. They recently went on a year-and-a half hiatus while they searched for a new bassist. They announced the new bassist in October 2022 and dropped their first song, “Judgement Day” on December 22. Some background:
They were formed in 2016 from the remnants of a legendary all-girl Japanese metal band called Destrose (yes, all-girl metal has been a thing in Japan since at least 1981). Miho (bass, chief headbanger and founder of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the great European bands of the golden age of metal. She recruited her former bandmate Haruna (drums, 4'9" “pocket nuclear reactor”); they needed two world-class guitarists, and so they went and found Midori and Miyako, who were with other groups. The four of them then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she was also trained in ballet).
Miyako has composed a little more than half of their music, with Miho composing a lot of their thrashier songs in collaboration with Mao, the lead composer of another band called Lightbringer. Midori has also been getting into the act, and they regularly perform a song written by Haruna as well. Asami writes most of the lyrics, and cowrote the music for “Judgement Day” with Mao.
In mid-2020, Miho left the band she had founded, for personal reasons. They recently announced their new bassist, Fami, who is a young phenom and herself a composer and multi-instrumentalist.
The instrumentalists studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. They have incorporated some of the best of each of those bands into their arsenal, and have created a sound that is fresh and cutting edge while paying tribute to the old masters. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance was that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining.
They do everything from soulful power ballads to heavy thrash. Almost every song includes face-melting solos by Miyako and Midori. The two guitarists are quite different in style and tone. Midori (blonde ponytail) is the extrovert and speed demon; Miyako is the introvert, with the more soulful feel (though she can also shred like crazy). Midori uses a cleaner tone, Miyako uses more distortion, pinch harmonics and pedal effects. The contrast makes their duets rich and dynamic. It doesn’t hurt that either one can smoke most of the shredders in the classic metal bands. As another reviewer said, "It seems criminal these two are allowed to be in the same band."
Their first song with Fami is “Judgement Day” ua-cam.com/video/m3uGjp-P7DI/v-deo.html
Here are more clips you should check out:
“Don’t Bite the Dust” ua-cam.com/video/oHnKGEj1CMc/v-deo.html, from the same concert as "Set the World on Fire" 2021 concert DVD “Heavy Metal Never Dies”.
"Edge of the World" and "We the United", back to back: ua-cam.com/video/sl0-U-ykJCU/v-deo.html They form an incredible journey from darkness and despair to light and hope.
Also, “Empty Daydream”, which starts as a ballad and becomes a real rocker: ua-cam.com/video/lXh_uMM94jU/v-deo.html;
“Holy War”: ua-cam.com/video/bgAxpEpEcno/v-deo.html
Miyako is also a virtuoso concert pianist, and was headed for a career in classical music, before picking up the guitar. If you want to see what she can do on the piano, watch “Swan Song” WITH the prelude, which is Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor). Miyako wrote “Swan Song” using elements from several classical pieces including the Etude. This link should work: ua-cam.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/v-deo.html.
For a thrasher with heavy Slayer and Metallica vibes, “Break the Wall” ua-cam.com/video/G021aP2ao6Y/v-deo.html includes two gorgeous and completely contrasting solos by M&M.
For a heart-stopping ballad, “Epilogue” ua-cam.com/video/1ynnXDfEnnY/v-deo.html (this includes a second song, your choice whether or not to react to both)
Finally, while you will sometimes hear you should only react to live clips, actually their MV’s are epic and worth seeing. Here are four of the most spectacular:
"Shadowmaker" ua-cam.com/video/Brmoln5Gxus/v-deo.html
This is the song that blew up and melted faces all over the world
"When Destinies Align" ua-cam.com/video/hLFelI93VkM/v-deo.html
"Glory to the World" ua-cam.com/video/-wJtD2XEXH4/v-deo.html
"Winds of Transylvania" ua-cam.com/video/HsE4Ub_Pjh8/v-deo.html.
You'll get lots of suggestions, just one thing: don't bother with Bloodstock footage, the sound quality is poor. Best to take suggestions with actual links. Also, you can’t go wrong with any of their official clips. Welcome to the Wolf-Pack!
Thank you so much! That is so much good information, I don’t know where to start. Lol. Well, you told where not to start at least. We look forward to hearing so much more. The next song in our queue is Judgment Day and then we’ll move on from there. Welcome Wolf-Pack. We are glad to have you!
as always, the best information for beginners! 😎
You should update your link for "Break the Wall", because the video you have linked to, isn't available anymore. The "correct" link, i.e. the one to the best live version (so far) from 2020, which others have also mentioned, is this one: ua-cam.com/video/5Pc0XK0lNmU/v-deo.html For me as a Thrash Metal fan, "Break the Wall", "The Hammer of Wrath" and "Set the World on Fire" are my favourite songs by Lovebites, but there's no song I don't like! By the way, the live version of "Epilogue" - possibly my overall favourite ballad - is also available as a single videoclip, also posted on Okku's channel: ua-cam.com/video/JIAJYBuuKGM/v-deo.html
Next LoveBites song: “Break The Wall” Live 🤘
lovebites is one of the most talented band out ther covering almost all genres of metal if you guys dive into their musics, i’ll like to recommend you guys some other japanese band and their all top tier and all different from each other.
unlucky morpheus - unending sorceress
crystal lake - into the great beyond
nemophila - dissension
wagakki band - senbonzakura
not gonna spoil anything for u guys and i promise you guys will love all of them.
I love Crystal Lake. We have Hanabie and Band-Maid on our list, but we’ll add the others as well. We have a Crossfaith reaction coming up as well, and we will finally settle which one of us has Tatsuya Amano as their favorite drummer. Thank you for the suggestions.
I don’t have anything to add that others have already mentioned except these ladies don’t disappoint they are the real deal
Lovebites was named after the Halestorm song Love Bites (And so do I)
Lol! I can't... I'm leaving. Lol.
Wait. Is that the full title of the song? I though you were ad-libbing. Lol.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial yes that is the full title of the Halestorm song.
@@ChadTheDragonLord right, but to be exact, no "And" just "Love Bites (So Do I)"
I have been fortunate enough to have seen live many of the rock/metal giants from Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, The Who, Rolling Stones, Dio (with Rainbow and Black Sabbath) Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, etc, and honestly, not many of the bands of this generation really blow me away. I mean there are some really excellent, talented bands out there but not many really grab me and draw me in. Then there is Lovebites. They are everything I could want in a great band. They are amazing musicians, songwriters, and lyricists. The vocals are tremendous too. As you go down the rabbit hole, you will hear they play all different styles of metal and with each song, you get more and more blown away. And with the addition of their newest bass player, Fami, it seems they are taking their sound and talents to a new level. Enjoy the ride!!
We are going to enjoy this rabbit hole a lot, methinks. Just as a heads up, we're going to have the drummer for the Judas Priest tribute band, Just Like Priest on the show when we get more subscribers. Thank you for your comments and thank you for rocking with us.
The bassist on this song was original bassist Miho. the only song with Fami that is a full song is the release from their new album due out in February Judgement Day. and a short version of one of their original songs Bravehearted (Not a full song)
Simply Glorious....Love LOVEBITES 🐺

Thank you for that. The lyrics are in the description, but the solo info is great! I like it!

Miyako plays on a Dean
Break the Wall , Hammer of Wrath, Winds of Transylvania or a metal ballad like Epilogue for your next reaction are some suggestions.
Glory to Lovebites 🤘 🐺 🔥
Thank you so much for the suggestions. We look forward to checking them out.
LOL there is no band in the world like this one. This band has no peer. Yes, Miyako plays a Dean.

Thank you for the suggestions. We have Judgment Day down for next LB reaction, followed by Break the Wall. We also have Hanabie and Band-Maid on the list. We’ll check out the others as well.
That's how it goes on and on, everything you knew and loved from before combined in the new style and brought to perfection, the girls are also very proud of their roots. suddenly Lovebites is in your life. if you go on a Japan Reaction trip in particular, your entire musical worldview will be severely shaken, but it's hugely worth it. As a middle European, I'm very spoiled for metal, but it all hit me hard, I've been on the Japan Music trip for 5 1/2 years now, I'm probably at 30% and already know quite a bit (I imagine! 😬) Great reaction
It’s funny besides the metal scene is getting huge in Japan, but a lot of the bands are all females. I have about 5 bands on our list. Well actually 8. The 5 bands we just added to 3 we already enjoy, or at least I do. I’m not sure if Rod knows as many Japanese artists as I do. I just introduced him to two recently. One he loved, the other he hated. When people ask me my favorite genre, I usually say Tokyo post hardcore alternative. I may have to update that. 😉 Thank you so much for your comment.
My Lovebites 🏴 🐺 🤘All Mine! I don't want to share
I am glad that y'all were able to experience Lovebites. I discovered Lovebites shortly after I discovered Band-Maid about 3 years ago. They are still my two favorite Japanese bands but there are a few others that are right behind - Nemophila, Asterism, Unlucky Morpheus, Hanabie, Gacharic Spin and the list could go on. Set The World On Fire was composed by Miyako, the guitarist on stage left with the Dean, and the lyrics were by the vocalist, Asami. As of now Lovebites has 46 songs and 3 instrumentals in their released catalog, the 46th being Judgment Day, the title track of their upcoming album. Miyako has composed 20 of the songs and 2 of the instrumentals and she works alone on her compositions. The only exception is a great song called Break The Wall which Miho started and Miyako finished (probably around a 65/35 split between the two).
From the beginning of the band's founding in 2016 by the original bassist Miho, the band has had an unofficial 6th member named Mao. Mao is a composer/keyboardist who began concentrating on composing when his band ended. He has written 5 Lovebites songs on his own and has collaborated with three of the band members in their compositions - Miho (10), Asami (6) and Midori (2). I believe that Miho brought Mao in to assist her in composing since he had a great deal of experience and I know of only one song that Miho composed in her previous band. He then assisted Asami starting with her first song on the second full length album and Midori starting with her first song on the third full length album.
As for the naming of the band Lovebites, that is primarily due to Asami. She had learned of an audition for a metal band that needed a vocalist who would be very comfortable singing songs with English lyrics. Asami had a great deal of experience singing in English but in the genres of R&B and Soul. She had virtually no experience singing rock music. To prepare for the audition she began practicing rock songs sung by female vocalists, particularly Lzzy Hale. One of the songs she sang was the Grammy winning Love Bites (So Do I) which was released 4 years prior. Miho and the others were so impressed by Asami that she was brought on as their vocalist and loved the song so much to name the band Lovebites.
Wrong, in what they have released they have a total of 54 songs including Judgement Day and The Spirit lives on and nameless warrior plus 3 covers where are you getting the instrumentals from they but have 2 intros to 2 song’s addicted and the awakening/hammer of wrath
Funny, I’ve seen 46, 52, and 54. I personally am not going to quibble over the number, but the preparation story is very interesting. We have Hanabie and Band Maid on the list, but it looks like we’ll be adding some more names. This will be fun. Maybe we’ll see Barker on drums so I can tease Rod again. Lol. Thanks for the info. I’m going to go see if I can find the 8 missing songs. 😉
@@salsaucedo Great! We have more awesome songs to listen to. I’m sure that number will change when the album comes out. That’s my favorite thing about bands. Dropping fresh music we can all enjoy, and then going back and checking out their earlier stuff. It’s like the number of songs is a moving target. 54 just means we have more great music to listen to. This is going to take awhile, but we’ll love every minute of it. Thanks for rocking with us.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial I also recommend the japanese female band Nemophila with the phenomenal 7-string Led guitar duo Saki and Hazui.🤘🎸🤘
@@salsaucedo I suppose it depends if you count different versions of the same song or not. Bravehearted has a Japanese and English version. Thunder Vengeance has an orchestral version. Do you count that as 4 or 2?
It is the band name, not the song that is named after Halestorm. When lead singer Asami auditioned, she used the Halestorm song "Love Bites (So Do I)" for her audition piece, which led to them choosing the name Lovebites for the band. That is pretty much where the similarities end. Lovebites are much heavier and much more complex in their music than Halestorm. They have covered Halestorm live (and Asami has joined Halestorm live onstage to also perform the song with them), but the only other covers they have done are Judas Priest's "Painkiller" and Helloween's "Eagle Fly Free."
Yes, this is an interesting story about how the name came to be, and yes, the music of LOVEBITES is very different from Halestorm. Thank you so much for your comment.
And they have covered Halestorm's "Love Bites (So Do I)" for "Invitation to the Theater." It's on my channel. You should check it out since it doesn't sound like you know about it. Also, in their early days, LOVEBITES covered "Overkill" by Motorhead, but as far I know, there isn't any footage of it, just setlists as evidence.
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu Band-Maid meets The Warning? That was cool.
There is a video somewhere where Asami sings with the band from the song "Lovebites". ua-cam.com/video/OCRaHKul8xY/v-deo.html
Their first ever show was a "secret" show under the name "Powerslaves" on August 4, 2016. In this show they performed covers of the following songs:
1. Headhunter (Krokus)
2. Heavy Metal Thunder (Saxon)
3. Creeping Death (Metallica)
4. Overkill (Motorhead)
5. Battery (Metallica)
You can see some footage of this show in the music video for the song "Nameless Warrior" that was released at the end of 2021.
She do have a DEAN signature gitar,try to check on thier new song " JUDGMENT DAY", this one also a Dean dimeback gitar
Judgment Day is next for this band in the queue. Thank you for confirming Rod’s guitar observation.
Set the world on Fire is Lovebites original song not Halestorm.
That's what I was thinking. That it was related by name, but not the song. You don't hear it because I muted it during the song, but Rod started to say it was a Halestorm song, but immediately retracted when they started going nuts on the guitars.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial they have 4 full length cd's and 3 ep's since early 2017 - all original songs by them and assist songwriter mao yamamoto. about 50 originals and have done 3 covers that are not on any of the cd's. new cd set to come pout in late feb. with the new bassist fami. you will never tire of these beautiful ladies
@@thedocofrock1890 I saw that when I looked up their discography. We are doing Judgment Day next, then we’ll move on from there. I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll be glad to do more reactions. We have a Hanabie reaction coming up in a few weeks also. I’m debating on posting the Babymetal reaction we did. Poor Rod. I thought he was going to quit after that. Lol. Thanks for the info and for watching.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial Oh, yes. Judgement day is another level of metal.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial babymetal has quite a following. personally they don't do a lot for me though. they seem like a 3 girl idol group backed up by a metal band - the kami band. there are a lot of other really good female metal bands to check out where the ladies play their own instruments. LOVEBITES has no competition in my eyes. they are at the top of the metal pile as well as a lot of other styles as you will tell if you keep going with them.

This is great information! Thank you so very much!
When Asami auditioned as singer, the last song was Lovebites (so do I). They all thought it sounded great and called her back again. They were looking for a name, and liked that one.
Later at a metal festival Asami sang with Halestorm on stage for a song or two.
Very cool. The name is really where the similarity stops. Their music is definitely unique and I look forward to hearing more.
Yes, as you mentioned they got influences from Iron Maiden. They even wrote a tribute to Aces High by Maiden. The Crusade ua-cam.com/video/0guewPdnrKQ/v-deo.html
Miho Miho Miho! this was when Miho was still in the band the New Bassist Fami only joined recently and there is only one MV with Fami "Judgment Day"
That’s coming next. I think when I looked up the band, it was showing the current lineup.
they have 52 original songs and 3 massive covers, all songs are in English despite Asami's heavy accent. Congratulations on discovering the greatest rock/metal band on earth, they are guaranteed to blow any other band off stage and make them all look like amateurs. If you want to see the great guitar duel ever you gotta check out Scream For Me with a total of 14 solos of back-and-forth guitar battle ua-cam.com/video/acwkphgzNg8/v-deo.html
You guys are awesome! This band will blow you away with every song. Get ready! 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you so much!
Just to inform you guys that the bassist was Miho not Fami and the guitar player name is Midori not Midoria.
This is a Lovebites song not a cover.
Did I put Midoria in the intro? If so, that was an accident. I was trying to get this one cranked out, so I may have added a letter. I’ll fix it in future reactions, since we’ll definitely have more. I knew there was a lineup change but I was trying to figure out the current lineup as well as the lineup for this song. I wasn’t sure. Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for rocking with us.
LOVEBITES RULES!!!
Haruna Drums 4'9
I believe Asami Vocals 5'0
Midori blonde shredder 5'0
Miho Bassist 5'0 (Before Fami)
Miyako Brunette Guitarist (The Golden Touch) 5'2
Heights too? You have some good info! I knew the drummer was the smallest. but it was the size of the drums arounds her too. Thanks for the info.
Midori is 4'11" per her own tweet last year after a bikini fitness competition.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial Miho is the founder of Lovebites 2016
Halestorm's song "Love Bites (so do I)" was a song R&B/Soul vocalist Asami sang with the band while auditioning is what I've heard. The name stayed. "We are LOVEBITES and We Play Heavy Metal!" is a regular declaration from Asami, who uses her unique style, voice & lyrics to make LOVEBITES sound one-of-a-kind.
Solos from each guitarist every song. Harmony duet 9-out-of-10. More an instrumental interlude than just 'solos'.
Every song a new surprise. 50 original songs (+ new album Feb 23) from ballad to classical & classic-metal. Some 'rock' & 'swagger' more 'prog' 'thrash' 'power-metal'.
Thanks for your reaction to LOVEBITES, and for keeping the audio true to their high standards, send all raw tracks to Finnvox in Helsinki to be mixed & mastered, from very first EP on...
You presentation format is unique and I enjoyed better than most, by far.
LOVEBITES fans go by Wolf-Pack, sometimes 🐺

Yes, they are very short girls. They are between 4'9 and 5'2.
Halestorm's "Lovebites" is where they got their name from. "Set the world on fire" is their own song and has nothing to do with Halestorm.
fun thing you mentioned halestorm they actually got their band name from their song love bites.
This band is phenomenal, legend👍🤘🤘
LoL! You guys are funny. You have no idea what you just stumbled upon. 😆
Lol. I’m glad we did. Thank you.
Thanks for the reaction. "Set the World On Fire" (Lyrics - Asami / Music - Miyako) original song by LOVEBITES.
Slash and Kennedy have a song called "World On Fire". There is a difference in the title.🤭
But there is a Swedish musician Ericsson (E-Type) who wrote the song "Set the World On Fire", but it's a different song, in the style of "disco". As they say, feel the difference.🙃
Often different bands have songs with the same title. But at the same time, the songs are completely different in lyrics and music. For example, "Love Bites" DEF LEPPARD , "Love Bites" JUDAS PRIEST , "Love Bites (So Do I)" HALESTORM .
Another example. LOVEBITES has a song called "Judgement Day". And WHITESNAKE has "Judgement Day" But those are different songs too. If you react to "Judgement Day" LOVEBITES, please consider it. This is not a WHITESNAKE song.😉
I will probably surprise you with the fact that I know 3 ALL - FEMALE bands🤗 :
1. LOVEBITES (Japan) heavy metal band. This band you reacted to
2. LOVEBITES (Japan) punk band.
3. LOVE BITES (Great Britain) punk band.
These bands are very different from each other in appearance and music.
Regarding , HALESTORM and LOVEBITES :
1. The name of the band comes from the song HALESTORM.
2. LOVEBITES recorded 3 songs (covers) of famous bands, one of them is the song "Love Bites (So Do I)" (HALESTORM)
3. Asami (LOVEBITES lead vocals) performed "Love Bites (So Do I)" with HALESTORM at Download Festival in Japan (March 2019) and Download Festival in UK (June 2019)
4. LOVEBITES were the opening act for the HALESTORM concert in Tokyo (December 2019).
Thank you for all of that information. So, there are 3 LOVEBITES? That is so interesting!
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial Yes! Personally, I know of three bands. And they are all-female.🤗
- British all-female punk band LOVE BITES was formed 15-17 years ago and named after the song "Love Bites" by DEF LEPPARD. The band lasted several years and broke up. Then the band was not heard for 10-12 years. A few years ago, this band announced that they were going to re-establish themselves.
- Just as little is known about the Japanese all-female punk band LOVE BITES. They recorded their first album only in 2022.
- About the Japanese heavy metal band LOVEBITES, to the song of which you made a reaction, I can say that this is a Phenomenon💥 in the World of Metal. If you pay more attention to this band, you will understand what I mean. Suffice it to say that in 2018 LOVEBITES received the prestigious GOLDEN GODS Metal Hammer Award (London). They received it less than 2 years after their formation.
LOVEBITES third studio album "Electric Pentagram" (2020) was included in the Top 20 Best Metal Albums of 2020 by Metal Hammer.
The "Glory, Glory, to the World" ( EP, 2021) was nominated for the 2021 Global Metal Apocalypse Award as "Global Metal Release of the Year" and placed 2nd.
This is very briefly about the band.
@@GrayFox14 wow. Those are some great honors. This band deserves it though. I’m going to see if I can find that punk band. I like punk a lot. Thank you for all that information. I look forward to seeing more of this band.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial
1. British LOVE BITES (punk). One of the songs can be found on UA-cam. Copy and paste in search :
The LoveBites: He's Fit Official music video.
2. Japanese LOVE BITES (punk) can also be found on YT. The channel on which their songs from the first album are posted is called :
Love bites JAPAN topic
@@GrayFox14 Thank you so much.
You will find parts of their music that have some sound of their influences but eventually you will just come to realize they sound like Lovebites. They bring back the Old Thrash, Power Metal, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, Some hair band and more and intertwine it into Modern Metal. One of the few band's I can honestly say haven't written a bad song. One Hell of a Rabbit hole to go down but you'll enjoy it, They just simply can't be beat.
Exactly bro and hopefully people will learn to just say it’s sound like a Lovebites song
@@salsaucedo 100%
My advice is stay in Japan and stay with LOVEBITES. This is not a cover it is a LOVEBITES song. And yes they are little. The drummer (Haruna) is 4ft 9in and the tallest of them (Miyako) is 5ft 2in. If you thought this was awesome just check out any of their other songs.
Looking forward to checking out more songs.
They rock that
Hey Ralph! Good to see you, brother! And yes they do! 😃
this is their own song btw.
I've said it on other channels but I'm going to repeat myself: at 70 I've seen and heard hundreds of bands and I can say, without denigrating or criticizing these bands, that these young women are the best band in metal that I know. They have changed my musical universe for 6 years. And since this period, given what they have shown, we should no longer compare them to the groups of the past because they are the ones who should now serve as a point of comparison. 5 talents of this level in the same group only happens once every 30 years! And still it's not sure.
This was a joy to watch. So if I see Halley’s Comet, I should be looking for the next band with 5 gifted musicians? ;)
Yes thats a dean signature guitar. She is actually sponsored by dean and only use dean guitars.
Hailstorm doesn't write music this good
Neither does Halestorm.😛
M&M Strikes Again
Power duo? 🎸 🎸 😉
The only correlation is the name takes from Halestorm song!
what? their band name is from a Halestorm song.
this is their original song. It’s LOVEBITES ORIGINAL SONG BROTHERS.
Yes, we know. We weren’t sure going in, but Rod figured it out early in the song. He was just muted out. Thank you for the feedback.
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
If you really know Halestorm, you would have known from the first note that in no way is this a Halestorm song, not even close. Hopefully you've learned, forget about Halestorm when it comes to Lovebites music. Its only about the name, that's it. Forget comparing them to ANY band. You nailed it about the 80's/90's, because that is the base of their style, but it's nothing like those days, it's modernized. The only covers I know they've done are "Eagle Fly Free" by Helloween and "Pain Killer" by Judas Priest. Lovebites draws influences from many places, and blends many styles of metal into every one of their songs. They are riff queens.
Yes. I was transported back to all the metal bands my youth pastor told me not to listen to. Lol. It's muted, but Rod figured out right away it was nothing like a Halestorm song. I figured it was by name only, but sometimes it's fun to see where Rod ends up. I used to interrupt him and interject a lot. I'm really trying not to this year. Thank you for your feedback.
Memories of Helloween
The members of Wolfpack(Fan club) highly recommend live videos.
LOVEBITES is better with live videos than with music videos.
In our experience, live videos outside of LOVEBITES have often not been as reproducible as music videos.
However, since the release of the album, the girls have practiced and improved on some of the songs, and have recreated songs that would be impossible to recreate in a live performance.
All are tight performances.
There are many others, which we have included below.
Please watch at your leisure.
P.S.
Many Reactors have to respond to many requests from channel subscribers, and it takes them a long time to come back to LOVEBITES, or they have copyright issues and stop reacting to LOVEBITES.
Many Reactors do not even make it to the final song in even one live concert.
Even if channel subscribers want to get to know LOVEBITES better, many Reactors are inundated with the usual reactionary course of "Holy War", "Swan Song" and "Set The World On Fire".If possible, we would like them to move on. But that is where it usually ends.
Your channel subscribers may see this list and listen to LOVEBITES songs before the content you create.
I would like at least all 20 songs of one live to be heard by a lot of people.
You may think I'm interrupting your channel.
But don't worry about that! Because channel subscribers and Wolf pack (Fan club) members who like LOVEBITES will definitely come to listen to your content.
If you treat LOVEBITES regularly, Wolf pack will not betray you.
LOVEBITES, now with a new bassist "Fami," will finally release its fourth original album "JUDGEMENT DAY" on 22 February 2023.
LOVEBITES will be back Live in March 2023.
[WE ARE THE RESURRECTION]
11 Mar 2023 EX THEATER ROPPONGI TOKYO
12 Mar 2023 EX THEATER ROPPONGI TOKYO
The girls will recreate "JUDGEMENT DAY" in this live performance.
Please continue to LOVEBITES in the future.

Recommended Music Video List
"JUDGEMENT DAY"
"Winds of Transylvania"
"When Destinies Align"
"Glory to the World"
Listen to these music videos and then listen to these live videos.
In my opinion, in the music videos for these three songs, Miyako&Midori seem to play slightly more complex or slightly longer solos than in Live.
Also, Asami keeps her high tones more beautifully in her music videos than in her LIVE performances.
The girls will recreate these three songs, which would be difficult to recreate in a music video, as tightly as possible in Live.
The music video can be found on LOVEBITES' official website.

Another commenter wrote that stopping the recording about every two minutes apparently avoids copyright infringement.
You can record your comments while we are stopping.
@@fab1901 with a band like this, I hate having to do that. There’s so much going on with the guitars. I’m willing to do it. Maybe I’ll break it up after recording so I can pick spots. But, I hope that helps. Thank you.

Please continue to LOVEBITES in the future.
Next song: Break the Wall
We have Judgment Day down as the next LB song, but we will do Break the Wall Live after that.
Gotta love a couple of guys waffling on about a topic they clearly have no idea about.
We do that intentionally. We do no research on the first reaction so we don’t know what to expect. Once we do the first reaction, we’ll do more research for subsequent reactions.
Great react guys, the thrash gallops are loud and clear in this one. I won't go into the 'welcome to the world's greatest band..' as that's been covered by many already. I'll just say they are metal and talented AF, easily my favorite band and I've been listening to metal for 35yrs+. Recommended next songs:
Thunder Vengeance live 2020 (show opener, absolute banger) ua-cam.com/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/v-deo.html
Shadowmaker MV, my 1st exposure to Lovebites and it was all over at that point...5 beautiful women in white, shredding your face off, what else needs to be said ua-cam.com/video/Brmoln5Gxus/v-deo.html
Pledge of the Saviour live, great song, awesome riff and baseline, and rarely reacted to ua-cam.com/video/iWwNlm33uVI/v-deo.html
Break the Wall live, another epic thrash song with wonderful solos ua-cam.com/video/5Pc0XK0lNmU/v-deo.html
The Awakening / Hammer of Wrath live another epic thrash song that showcases the bass, serious finger-tapping and more with a filthy riff ua-cam.com/video/otJZPUCwyOM/v-deo.html
I could go on and on as they don't have a single bad song and everything they do live is tight and at the speed of light except for a few MASTERPIECES they do...get to those later. Enjoy and look forward to watching! 🐺🤘
Thank you so much, Break the Wall live seems to be a general consensus so we will definitely check that one out. The next one on our LOVEBITES list is Judgment Day. Thank you for being here. We look forward to listening.
Tesla used to have guitar duels.
I saw Tesla with Def Leppard awhile back, and Rod just saw them. I think he has footage. We should share it sometime.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial They're doing five days in Vegas in two weeks, really thinking on going.
Thanks guys for this very cool reaction video.
On November 25th, 2022 LOVEBITES announced their 4th album. The new album "JUDGEMENT DAY" will be released on February 22nd, 2023 and it will be the first with the new bassist Fami. Furthermore, 2 live concerts on March 11th and 12th, 2023 in Tokyo were announced, also for the first time with Fami on bass.🤘
Miyako + Midori are the best guitar duo in 3 decades ! All 5 Lovebites women are masters. These Ladies write, compose and arrange their own songs.
Almost 50 premium songs in 5 years and not a single weak song. Masters in live playing and geniuses in composing. LOVEBITES: Their gimmick is their ability! - This women play different styles, but always hard and fast. Thrash Metal + Power Metal + Speed Metal + Metal Ballads.
We hope for more of you to Lovebites. S u g g e s t i o n s for next reaction V i d e o : Get to know the brutal thrash metal side of Lovebites with one of these songs : ALL LIVE !!!

🤘LOVEbites🤘
Oh yes! I read that Miho left the band for personal reasons. Thank you so much for your kind words and information.
congrats for finding this incredible band. they play their own songs. I believe, they only did one cover: judas priests "painkiller". founded in 2016 and interrupted by a hiatus, their backcatalogue is around 50 songs. and there not a single bad or mediocre one. only good stuff, inspired by the great metalbands of the eighties and classical music too, mixed with modern sound and techniques. they are named after halestorms "love bites (so do I)", because singer asami, who came from R&B and didn´t knew any metal, was casted after two demos: judas priest and halestorm. and at download festival UK 2019 asami performed onstage with halestorm: ua-cam.com/video/OCRaHKul8xY/v-deo.html I think, you´ll get a couple of recommendations, what to listen next from them. y suggestion would be "holy war" live tokyo 2020 and maybe their new video "judgement day".
We have Judgment Day on list next. I think we are adding Break the Wall, and I’ll check out the other one you mentioned. Thank you so much.
of course "eagle fly free" is also a coverversion. from helloween.
That was a good reaction! Welcome to the world of Lovebites music!
"We are Lovebites and we play Heavy Metal!" - the vocalist Asami told this almost at every concert!
Halestorm has the song "Love bites", and Lovebites took only the name of this song. "Set the World On Fire" is completely their own song. I know only "Eagle fly free" Helloween that Lovebites covered.
By the way, all Lovebites songs are different but all of them are awesome! You should watch more their live videos. I suggest you the songs "Holy war" from their own UA-cam channel and "Break the wall" form the LB_WOLFPACK channel if you want a heavy song. And you can try the song "Swan song with Chopin Intro" from the Hadesillo channel if you want something interesting and more melodic!
Thank you for your reaction! More Lovebites on the channel. And welcome to the WolfPack!
Next in our LOVEBITES queue is Judgement Day, but we are getting a lot of request for Break the Wall, so we’ll have to add that one next. Thank you so much for your kind words and info.
Other than the name of the band there is ZERO correlation between Halestorm and Lovebites.
Thank you.
I noticed, you guys have guitars behind you. Well, better throw them away. because you can only be as good as M&M i. your dreams . lmfao
We’ll start practicing. Lol. In a future reaction, Rod replaces my acoustic with his electric.
@@UniversalReactionsOfficial
You guys are way too focused on Halestorm here. LOVEBITES named themselves after the song, they covered the song for a live recording, and vocalist Asami has performed that song with Halestorm. That's where it ends. LOVEBITES is not a Halestorm cover/tribute band and nothing in "Set the World on Fire" or any of their songs is from Halestorm.
Miyako's guitar is a Dean, a company named after its founder, Dean Zelinsky. Dean Martin was an old school pop singer (and _that's_ an oversimplification if I've ever typed one) that was often associated with Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack as well as Jerry Lewis. Miyako's guitar here is a Switchblade ML, but it's not a Dimebag signature. As for her pedals, the one she's using at the end is either the Dunlop John Petrucci signature wah or her DigiTech Whammy pedal. I've seen this full show enough times to see both on her board.
Yeah, we dropped that Halestorm connection, but I would like to see Asami’s performance with Halestorm. Thank you for the guitar and pedal info. I appreciate it.
Thank you for nice reaction.

what ??? you guys are smoking something. this song and all their other songs do not have anything to do with Halestorm.
LET ME REPEAT.
all their songs has NOTHING TO DO WITH HALESTORM.
GET THAT TO YOUR FREAKIN’ HEAD…..
Whoa. Whoa. We figured it out early into the song. I had Rod muted though. One thing I thing to do is not to research the band until we do the first reaction. That way we know as much as if one of our friends took us to a concert, but we didn’t really know who the band was. If we did a bunch of research beforehand, we would know what to expect and our first reaction wouldn’t feel as genuine. Now that the floodgates have opened, we can research them more.
My God, stop this obsession with Halestorm. The band has nothing to do with them. Lovebites is just the name of the band, accept it. It gets annoying.
I was just repeating what the person who requested the song said. It was our first LOVEBITES reaction. We go into our first reactions with no info. I think trying to figure out the connection is pretty harmless, and other commenters were nice in their corrections. Rod figured it out during the song, but I had him muted so y’all weren’t able to hear him. It’s doubtful we’ll mention Halestorm again, although I may for S&G. 😉
