I discovered Lovebites not long ago - and have fallen in love at once (at the age of 66). Then I found out that there are more bands of this kind (Band-Maid, The Warning etc.), a whole new world of music to me I just love.
Recently I travelled about 2.000 km just to see them live twice. Besides very few forgiveable mishaps (she forgot to sing into her mic lol) they were pretty close to being perfect. Still suffering from post concert depressions for six weeks straight now. Only cure will be when I receive their latest EP in about 3-4 weeks 😂
Post concert depression made me buy tickets to fly to the US and see them again. Now I'm happy again until mid September when I get back and will be double depressed AND broke.
All of Lovebites's releases have been mixed and mastered by Finnish audio engineers Mikko Karmila and Mika Jussila, they are also making the recording/mixing for Nightwish.
Always refreshing to get a perspective from a bona fide musician about how amazing these ladies are, especially LIVE. As part of their current world tour, Lovebites will be performing in the US next month in September with 4 shows confirmed so far.
LOVEBITES - Stand And Deliver lyrics: Bet the time you got in this game ! Bet the time you got in this game ! You ready ? You ready ? Let the night go deeper than now ! Let the night go deeper than now ! You see ? You see ?
Scream until you break and rip out your heart Forget about everything that is just in your way Stand and deliver 'cause nothing's satisfying Stand and deliver and shoot'em down Stand and deliver 'cause nothing's satisfying Stand and deliver and shoot'em down
This is it, take all in your hand This is it, take all in your hand You ready ? You ready ? This, for me, is never enough This, for me, is never enough You see ? You see ?
Feel the shade that lays deep down in your soul Already know the craziness hiding under that face
Stand and deliver 'cause nothing's satisfying Stand and deliver and shoot'em down Stand and deliver 'cause nothing's satisfying Stand and deliver and shoot'em down We will bring something new to this world Speeding it up and we won't end
Bet the time you got in this game ! Bet the time you got in this game ! You ready ? You ready ? Let the night go deeper than now ! Let the night go deeper than now ! You see ? You see ?
Scream until you break and rip out your heart Forget about everything that is just in your way

LOVEBITES is a five-member all-female, Japanese heavy metal band with deep musicianship (plus classical music/piano background). They transcend gender, genre, and geography, with some 60 songs in their discography. They won Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award for Best New Band (2018), toured with Dragonforce (2019), first female Japanese band to perform at Wacken Open Air (Germany) and others in Europe, and are unusual among Japanese bands in choosing to sing in English plus good lyrics (a daunting task for native Japanese speakers).They play a variety of heavy metal styles and are heavily influenced by NWBHM, especially Iron Maiden and the "big four" thrash metal bands.

Miyako uses a John Petrucci WAH-pedal. Miyako is a Dean guitars artist, but she is also a Gibson collector, she has a bunch of LesPauls, Explorer, Futura and a Gibson Korina Flying V. Fami plays a Freedom Custom Research guitars bass.
Great job, Anthony! Sincerely, from Anthony.😅When I hears the studio version of this song, I thought, hey this song is a natural live banger. But, how the living F is Asami going to sing this in concert!?!?! Then Asami did that, and did it very well! But I still think how the F every time they approach this song in a show. But then Asami says..... listen boy!🤣
Great reaction and analysis, thank you. They have new song from the upcoming EP (release date 8/28), "Uncahained". Premiere was on 7/30. New one is announced for 8/12.
All the best Metal and Rock of the 21st century is being made by Japanese female bands - Lovebiyes are the queens of Metal and Band-Maid are the queens of Rock. But there is a wealth of musical greatness in Japan and I've barely looked anywhere but there for my music for 8 years or so. Lovebites, Band-Maid, Nemophila, Asterism, Babymetal, Hanabie, Mellows...the list goes on and on.
Enjoyed the reaction and really loved the break down. As far as the Les Paul, opposite end of the spectrum though. That's a Gibson R9. I follow Miyako and she has a nice Gibson collection.
Great reaction Anthony!! Thanks for reacting to LOVEBITES, hope you''ll continue the journey with other tracks. On the hard-rock side: have you ever heard of the band BAND-MAID? Please try to react to their instrumental-only MV track "From Now On" and then go on the live track "Hate?". You'll love them!!!

Miyako, the guitarist on the right (with the flame coloured guitar) writes most of their stuff and recently did a "live" run trought of how she writes a song. Seeing as you're also in the same bussiness you might find it interesting. it's probably a bit too long for an on camera reaction at around 3x20 minutes. Part 1: ua-cam.com/video/zODuQZ0Ka6k/v-deo.html Part 2: ua-cam.com/video/3kC474aoz_E/v-deo.html Part 3:ua-cam.com/video/4Olgz7o5IUo/v-deo.html
The new song (sadly not live yet, just OMV) "Unchained" is even more catchy! So much so, that our thrash enthusiasts think, it's a pop song! Although it's fast and heavy.
Great reaction and analysis. Glad to see you branching out with your own channel. More Lovebites would be Great, but there are LOTS of great Japanese bands left to discover. Try *Unlucky Morpheus* *_Dignity of Spirit_* ua-cam.com/video/x7W9DcUKY_U/v-deo.html Or maybe some more Lovebites with *_Swan Song [+Chopin Intro]_* ua-cam.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/v-deo.html to see even more of what they are capable of. Really liked the sound of Suite Clarity too - I'll have to check out your other 2 bands
Your face showed up in my recommended page and I said wait... I know this guy, I remember the poor hat with the reactions and the abuse it took! I am not a musician so it was great to actually listen to one make sense of why I enjoyed a song/band a few years back when I watched your reactions. BTW Lovebites just finished a EU tour that I joined to watch in Milan (here's some footage from some of my fellow LB fans: stand and deliver: ua-cam.com/video/wCpHeI_fM9s/v-deo.html and some crowd chanting and holy war: ua-cam.com/video/Y8x91eJUrok/v-deo.html). My favorite footage of this tour though was from a guy standing in front of Miyako in London while she was shredding their new masterpiece you need to react to called SSS (Soldier stands solitarily, she also composed it): ua-cam.com/video/RaXW2iL1BXw/v-deo.html - fair warning, her shredding might take your attention away from the song so you might need to watch it multiple times.
This is a good song. It was their first release with Fami, their new bassist. From what I recall in an interview the song was to represent a new chapter for the band. They have some great live songs that I think you’ll enjoy. Especially as a guitarist. You’ll understand when you see and hear it.
Long time no see! The last time I saw you was two years ago on the 'More SC' channel. I don't watch channels that just react with exaggerated reactions anymore, but I find your thoughts and opinions as a musician really interesting. I see you've started a new channel. I'll definitely check back if you feature one of my favorite bands or songs. 🤘
Great to see you back! I always enjoyed the Suite Clarity reactions. I can't wait to see more of your reactions. Lovebites are probably the best power/thrash metal band out there. I can't wait to see your reactions to more music! Be sure to check out Fami's own channel. She does a bass cover of a song called Alien, Alien that will blow your mind. Subscribed.
Love me some Lovebites my favorite touring metaI band at the moment. Also is that by any chance a PRS private stock sitting beside you? props to you if it is. On a side note could you please react to Band-Maids' official live track of HATE? at Yokohama arena they are not metal per-se but more hard rock/punk rock, i believe you would enjoy how their lead guitarist uses her PRS in a duel with their bassist on her custom 5 string, it was the closing concert for their 10 year anniversary tour, and turn on the CC i think you will enjoy the lyrics
They should've gone with Eric instead of Kyle. My favorite hole-in-the-wall back in the Netherlands once had 13 Erics sitting at one table. Not planned. There just happened to be many Erics going to the same bar lol.
okay, twon - let's do us a throwback to like 3-20 years ago (i'm bad at time): the way you said "great" at 1:00 is EXACTLY HOW you roll your "r"s. just keep doing that. :)
I would love to get your perspective on Babymetal. Monochrome live should be good first song. And then Megitsume, MV and live, and the variations over the 10+ years 😅 🦊🤘
Hi! U still didn't react on JUNNA's new band- HAGANE! Their first MV- Tenka Goken was released month ago and got about 450k views and 18k likes, it was great! Now they released MV for Hero Time song! We need your reaction! ))
My name is Tai. I almost never get invited to these damned "most people with the same name in the same place" events. It's descrimination. I can't find the beat either sometimes, though in my case it's true even when there is one. Which of these Japanese women or woman fronted metal / rock / punk groups have you not done yet? If you fancy doing any, but only 1, please do Broken By The Scream as reactions to them are just classic!!!!

You mentioned it sounded power metal and it did in the intro but once they start the verse, it's more thrashy. They have some songs that are definitely power metal but others sound heavier, like this one.
Try an earlier LOVEBITES song with a very different sound, which includes MIYAKO on piano as well as guitar, in this live performance offering an extra level of stage craft: A FROZEN SERENADE - ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html
The band can definitely rock....and I have tried to get into them.....BUT I can't get passed the vocalist voice.....and haven't found one of their songs that grabs me....I know I sound like a hater but Im not....the drummer and all guitarist are bad ass. I guess I'll stick with Band Maid and Nemophila which I totally love !!!!
Would you be up to react to BABYMETAL? I would suggest recent performances of Road of Resistance, Karate, from their Legend MM 2024 concerts, and Monochrome from PIA Arena 2023. Road of Resistance: ua-cam.com/video/vC1eKk4qrT4/v-deo.html Karate: ua-cam.com/video/x1645-9Sz2w/v-deo.html Monochrome: ua-cam.com/video/8pvxCzhBsTM/v-deo.html
OMG ! Dude, Its best metal nowadays!! And no power metal,dude!! No this track,dude!Maybe really listen this track..this is power metal?!?!?!Megadeth/ Motorhead ! Power metal.....ha,ha hopeless !
I discovered Lovebites not long ago - and have fallen in love at once (at the age of 66). Then I found out that there are more bands of this kind (Band-Maid, The Warning etc.), a whole new world of music to me I just love.
In Yoda voice: Deep the Japanese rabbit hole goes.
Recently I travelled about 2.000 km just to see them live twice. Besides very few forgiveable mishaps (she forgot to sing into her mic lol) they were pretty close to being perfect. Still suffering from post concert depressions for six weeks straight now. Only cure will be when I receive their latest EP in about 3-4 weeks 😂
Post concert depression is such a real thing! It can’t really be explained, you just have to experience it 😂
You're my hero, I've just traveled about 1300 km, but it was for only one concert!
Nice, I travelled "just" cca. 1000 km to see Lovebites (and Hanabie!) live. A trip worth every cents.
Post concert depression made me buy tickets to fly to the US and see them again. Now I'm happy again until mid September when I get back and will be double depressed AND broke.
All of Lovebites's releases have been mixed and mastered by Finnish audio engineers Mikko Karmila and Mika Jussila, they are also making the recording/mixing for Nightwish.

Good review. These girls are all monsters on their instruments.
Ah nice to see you have your own channel, I always loved your videos in the band's one. Yeah great review to this one, thanks!
Good to see ya again! 😁
Midori💚💚💚💚💚
Epiphony guitar? Nope, Miyako is playing a real deal Gibson and she has an arsenal of them.
I'm pretty sure, that was her Gibson Les Paul guitar!
Miyako, the guitarist on the right (with the flame coloured guitar) writes most of their stuff and recently did a "live" run trought of how she writes a song. Seeing as you're also in the same bussiness you might find it interesting. it's probably a bit too long for an on camera reaction at around 3x20 minutes.

I traveled from Germany to London to see them in a small pub .. incredible gig
Thanks to THE ALGORITHM (™) I found you again; missed your teachings; subscribed.
The new song (sadly not live yet, just OMV) "Unchained" is even more catchy! So much so, that our thrash enthusiasts think, it's a pop song! Although it's fast and heavy.
Great reaction and analysis. Glad to see you branching out with your own channel. More Lovebites would be Great, but there are LOTS of great Japanese bands left to discover. Try *Unlucky Morpheus* *_Dignity of Spirit_* ua-cam.com/video/x7W9DcUKY_U/v-deo.html Or maybe some more Lovebites with *_Swan Song [+Chopin Intro]_* ua-cam.com/video/WBhtqgiXEA4/v-deo.html to see even more of what they are capable of. Really liked the sound of Suite Clarity too - I'll have to check out your other 2 bands
They just make it look so very easy. Smooth Performance and Pure Firepower Musicianship.
thank you. 😊
Miyako uses wah pedal and usually plays her Dean guitars she also has a gibson though
Hey your first solo vid to blow up! Nice 👍
You need to experience SSS, premiering live in 2hrs. Like no other speed / power metal song written, imho. One word: RELENTLESS. 🤘
Excellent video, love getting these breakdowns on Lovebites songs by someone who knows what they're talking about.. subbed!
I remember the band reactions drawing from the hat
The hat makes a return in future uploads! 🎉
Your face showed up in my recommended page and I said wait... I know this guy, I remember the poor hat with the reactions and the abuse it took! I am not a musician so it was great to actually listen to one make sense of why I enjoyed a song/band a few years back when I watched your reactions. BTW Lovebites just finished a EU tour that I joined to watch in Milan (here's some footage from some of my fellow LB fans: stand and deliver: ua-cam.com/video/wCpHeI_fM9s/v-deo.html and some crowd chanting and holy war: ua-cam.com/video/Y8x91eJUrok/v-deo.html). My favorite footage of this tour though was from a guy standing in front of Miyako in London while she was shredding their new masterpiece you need to react to called SSS (Soldier stands solitarily, she also composed it): ua-cam.com/video/RaXW2iL1BXw/v-deo.html - fair warning, her shredding might take your attention away from the song so you might need to watch it multiple times.
This is a good song. It was their first release with Fami, their new bassist. From what I recall in an interview the song was to represent a new chapter for the band.
They have some great live songs that I think you’ll enjoy. Especially as a guitarist. You’ll understand when you see and hear it.
🔥LovebitesPerfectMetalBand🔥
Gracias por la reacción a mi banda favorita🤟🏻🐺
Long time no see! The last time I saw you was two years ago on the 'More SC' channel. I don't watch channels that just react with exaggerated reactions anymore, but I find your thoughts and opinions as a musician really interesting. I see you've started a new channel. I'll definitely check back if you feature one of my favorite bands or songs. 🤘
Good to see ya back
A well oiled machine of rock!
Great to see you back! I always enjoyed the Suite Clarity reactions. I can't wait to see more of your reactions.
Lovebites are probably the best power/thrash metal band out there. I can't wait to see your reactions to more music!
Be sure to check out Fami's own channel. She does a bass cover of a song called Alien, Alien that will blow your mind.

Lovebites is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Greetings from Argentina
Love me some Lovebites my favorite touring metaI band at the moment. Also is that by any chance a PRS private stock sitting beside you? props to you if it is. On a side note could you please react to Band-Maids' official live track of HATE? at Yokohama arena they are not metal per-se but more hard rock/punk rock, i believe you would enjoy how their lead guitarist uses her PRS in a duel with their bassist on her custom 5 string, it was the closing concert for their 10 year anniversary tour, and turn on the CC i think you will enjoy the lyrics
I get to see them in SF next month. 🤘🥰🤘
They should've gone with Eric instead of Kyle. My favorite hole-in-the-wall back in the Netherlands once had 13 Erics sitting at one table. Not planned. There just happened to be many Erics going to the same bar lol.
Pls react to more Japanese Metal like JILUKA “VENOM “ and Maximum the hormone “ Yoshu Fukushu” .You will be blown away🔥🔥🔥
Get Motorhead vibes on this one! 🤘
Btw, great post-song breakdown!
No "motorhead" (small letters). dg3258 always mention them on GREAT LOVEBITES.
Fami Fami Fami!
They are HollyMolly 🔥💪💪
okay, twon - let's do us a throwback to like 3-20 years ago (i'm bad at time): the way you said "great" at 1:00 is EXACTLY HOW you roll your "r"s. just keep doing that. :)
I have been practicing quite a bit! Glad it’s working 😂😂
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I would love to get your perspective on Babymetal.
Monochrome live should be good first song.
And then Megitsume, MV and live, and the variations over the 10+ years 😅
🦊🤘
Monochrome is coming soon! I have that one scheduled already 😁
Nice set up you got there. 👍
Thanks! Took some time to set up, that’s for sure 😁
Hi! U still didn't react on JUNNA's new band- HAGANE!
Their first MV- Tenka Goken was released month ago and got about 450k views and 18k likes, it was great!
Now they released MV for Hero Time song!
We need your reaction! ))
My name is Tai. I almost never get invited to these damned "most people with the same name in the same place" events. It's descrimination.
I can't find the beat either sometimes, though in my case it's true even when there is one.
Which of these Japanese women or woman fronted metal / rock / punk groups have you not done yet?
If you fancy doing any, but only 1, please do Broken By The Scream as reactions to them are just classic!!!!

You mentioned it sounded power metal and it did in the intro but once they start the verse, it's more thrashy. They have some songs that are definitely power metal but others sound heavier, like this one.
Try an earlier LOVEBITES song with a very different sound, which includes MIYAKO on piano as well as guitar, in this live performance offering an extra level of stage craft: A FROZEN SERENADE - ua-cam.com/video/Ae8pQVu-RN8/v-deo.html
The band can definitely rock....and I have tried to get into them.....BUT I can't get passed the vocalist voice.....and haven't found one of their
songs that grabs me....I know I sound like a hater but Im not....the drummer and all guitarist are bad ass. I guess I'll stick with Band Maid and Nemophila which I totally love !!!!
Hey, nothing will appeal to everyone. Nothing wrong with that!
You need to listen to Swan Song with a Chopin intro. Miyako, guitarist on the right, is a classical pianist. She is also their songwriter.
lots of Motörhead vibes in this song
I'm here just to say "react to Judgement day" If you liked this one, with Judgement Day your mind will be blown
Did you know, the opposite of ineffable, is effable.
Ineffable is too amazing to be described.
Effable is me. I'm real f'n effable.
Hardest part is when a man complains about everything like every Karen on planet earth.
Would you be up to react to BABYMETAL? I would suggest recent performances of Road of Resistance, Karate, from their Legend MM 2024 concerts, and Monochrome from PIA Arena 2023.
Road of Resistance: ua-cam.com/video/vC1eKk4qrT4/v-deo.html
Karate: ua-cam.com/video/x1645-9Sz2w/v-deo.html
Monochrome: ua-cam.com/video/8pvxCzhBsTM/v-deo.html
No, "babymetal" they are gibberish!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG ! Dude, Its best metal nowadays!! And no power metal,dude!! No this track,dude!Maybe really listen this track..this is power metal?!?!?!Megadeth/ Motorhead ! Power metal.....ha,ha hopeless !
#hopeless 🤷🏻♂️
