    Glad you came back to them. Lovebites have the ability to make people who don't normally listen to metal fall in love with it!

    Lovebites,... quite simply the best heavy metal band out there today. The current line up (with new bass player Fami) is on fire, so please check out any of the more recent tracks from the series of two concerts called "Knocking At Heaven's Gate Pt1 and Pt2" - "Hammer Of Wrath", "Liar" and particularly "We The United". There are more, but these stand out to me. As for Asami... you do you, but she is a treasure - truly the stage general in command at any and all Lovebites concerts. She could sing the phone directory and it would be magical. 🤘🎸🐺

    LOVEBITES - Holy War lyrics:
    Look at those black clouds, it’s going to rain blood
    People live in fear, covered in mud
    Singing oh Gloria to change the prophecy
    We are the metal warriors
    Fighting the darkness for sisters
    There is a thousand, a thousand of evils
    Hush, do not wake up Satan’s devils
    Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty
    We are the metal warriors
    Fighting the darkness for brothers
    Shining blade and burning heart
    Into the Gates of Hell we march
    Immortal soul, let there be light
    Into the Eye of Heaven
    Eagles at a holy war
    Fly higher than the sun
    We are one for all and all for one forevermore
    SOLO: midori
    Kingdom of Heaven, never shall we fall
    Reincarnation, wait for your call
    Singing oh, Gloria to change the prophecy
    We are the metal warriors
    Fighting the darkness for sisters
    Morning star and dying moon
    Into the Gates of Hell we march
    Mighty soul, let there be hope
    Into the Eye of Heaven
    Eagles at a holy war
    Fly higher than the sun
    Stand up in the name of the God of heavy metal
    What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?
    But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
    Only have one thing on our mind
    Facing the fate, holy war
    SOLO: miyako / midori / both
    Singing Hallelujah to save our majesty
    We are the metal warriors
    Fighting the darkness for brothers
    Shining blade and burning heart
    Into the Gates of Hell we march
    Immortal soul, let there be light
    Into the Eye of Heaven
    Eagles at a holy war
    Fly higher than the sun
    We are one for all and all for one forevermore
    What do we live for?What do we fight for, tonight?
    But the world is beautiful, worth fighting for
    Only have one thing on our mind
    Facing the fate, holy war

    Thin Lizzy gave us the twin guitar attack, Judas Priest brought it to the heavier scenes and now Lovebites stand as proud heiresses 🙂 I truly hope you will continue with this band. They have ballads, heavy rock, old-time metal as well as speed and thrash. You can find it all as long as you like guitars.
    Many reactors have issues with her vocals at first but tend to get used to it after a few songs, because it's 'wrong' but it still fits incredibly well. It's their sound.

    LOVEBITES. They are listened not only by metalheads. Ladies came out of their metal genre and have wider spectrum of fans.
    They play ECLECTIC METAL. It means they blend as the first band in history all kind of metal mainly power and thrash with NWOBHM, heavy metal, symphonic metal, speed metal, hard rock, rock, rock'n'roll, jazz, progressive pieces and even punk. They mix all with classical music using operatic, A&B, soul and gospel skills of vocalist and grand piano and Spanish guitar skills playing. Sometimes they use typical Japanese melodic lines which are included in ENKAs_ melancholy ballads singing by Japanese women. Only their can do it. Obviously they draw a lot from British, German and American metal.

      This is an overview of LOVEBITES 55 self-written songs and 3 covers (plus 6+1 covers by band members) with your reaction marked with a star (*).
      All these songs are great, they have no bad, weak or meh songs, and no fillers at all. Every song is special, you could randomly select a song, best life, of course, and LOVEBITES won't disappoint you. They play many different Heavy Metal styles with a certain LOVEBITES sound, they revive the masters of the 80's (and 90's) in a fresh and modern way. LOVEBITES may have the most talented musicians around, all of them S tier. Drummer Haruna is relentless like a metronome, both Miho and Fami master their bass (for Fami's capabilities, you should visit "Alien Alien" from my list, it's in her UA-cam channel will almost 700K subscribers), the dual guitars M&M (for Midori and Miyako) is most certainly the best duo for trading guitar solos and harmonizing, and Asami's voice is stellar with big range, powerful belt and good vibrato. She is also a trained ballerina with exceptional stage presence. One reactor caller her "Stage General", which is perfectly put. Hard, tight, fast, relentless, effortless and clean, that's LOVEBITES. Fasten your seat belt and enjoy your ride!

    Two of the best guitarists in the world right there, and the best metal band in the world right now as well. Their style is power metal mainly, as with this song here, but they do thrash metal, speed, some things that might be deemed more progressive, power ballads. Maybe try another or two and maybe they and/or the style will grow on you more.. As it does, you'll come to appreciate it more. Might not be an every moment of the day listen kind of thing, but one you appreciate to the fullest when you're in the mood, and they sure are amazing to watch live. Thunder Vengeance the opener for this show from 2020, or Break the Wall, also from this show, would be two I'd recommend as great examples of thrash metal, and two of my favorites of theirs. I'd also recommend Epilogue, as a good power ballad and Empty Daydream as examples of other shades of Lovebites, as it were. Thanks for the reaction!

    Vocals are subjective. I am an old metal head and there are certain vocal styles that I can’t stand. Namely, screamo/growl ing/barking. I just can’t listen to it. I grew up in a time where all rock/metal singers sang clean. The best singers in these genres all sing clean.
    Power metal singers like Asami with Lovebites is more traditional power metal, along the lines of Iron Maiden’s Bruce Dickinson. They are like wailing sirens. The music style really requires it.
    My favorite is the semi-operatic vocals like Geoff Tate or a killer mixed voice like the singer from SteelHeart.

    • @ChadTheDragonLord
      @ChadTheDragonLord 9 місяців тому +7

      I totally agree. I enjoy melodies and the beauty of the voice - not the cookie monster noises that sound like someone is dying. Geoff Tate is an awesome vocalist and I saw him perform in my tiny home town of 6000 population a few years ago. I love the power and strength and range of good vocals and Asami hits all those buttons for me.
