Vocal Coach reacts to Lovebites - Swan Song (Live)

[@phillipseaton9389]

Asami before she joined the band wasn't a metal singer. She was a backup singer for other bands in Japan and sang mostly gospel and r&b/soul. Shes far more comfortable singing Aretha Franklin and Alicia Keys. She was inspired by Lizzy Hale of Halestorm to sing rock music. She auditioned for the band with the Halestorm song "Lovebites and So Do I" and that's where the band gets its name from. Asami also writes most of the of the lyrics to their songs The guitarist who also plays piano Miyako composed the piece as her love letter to Chopin and Devorak because she was a classically trained pianist before she picked up the guitar.

[@janhromas7276]

Thank you so much for this reaction video and your analysis. Lovebites is one of the best metal bands today. An incredible band. I believe that their other amazing songs will hit your heart as well. It's a pity you didn't start this song with a magic piano intro from Miyako. Great tribute to Chopin. Miyako (dark hair guitarist and pianist) is one of the best musical artists of our time. She is my the most favorite musician. I love this band.

[@sydneyhalliwell2513]

They’ve been one of my favorites for a bit now

[@skoob64]

Love bites are a once in a generation band. All members of Lovebites are sophisticated, well-educated, classically trained and multi-instrumentalists. Miyako (black hair/Dean guitar) has played classical piano for twenty-eight of her thirty years to concert performance level and the piano is probably her first instrument, she also plays a mean bass and some drums.. She taught herself to play the guitar at eighteen. Midori (blond/Esp guitar) studied piano and keyboards from the age to two until around twenty when she attended one of the premier music schools in Japan to learn guitar. Haruna (drums) also studied piano from an early age before switchng to drums. Miho (bass) started out playing piano before she switched to bass. She also plays guitar and drums, Asami the singer has had vocal coaching and regularly belts effortlessly at F5 and her graceful stage presence is thanks to more than a decade studying classical ballet. It is a pity you did not include the introduction to 'Swan Song' in which Miyako plays Chopin's Etude Opus 10 No. 12.

Hehehe and this is just the begining, not just of Lovebites but of a huge crop of all female bands!

[@jmetallover]

You missed Miyako doing Chopin's piano Etude intro and then jumping onto the guitar for the song. Asami/vocals at 4' 10" thunders out over the layers behind her and despite being a backup RnB/Jazz/Soul vocalist who never sang Metal till she joined this band she has morphed into the perfect front person for this group. She is an ex-ballerina student thus the graceful movements on stage as well. Best LIVE metal band with insane talent today. They are all petite (Haruna/drums is only 4' 9") thus the white dresses and high heels that they perform in to stand out and be seen easier. They mix '80 metal with old world masters and then elevate it to a whole new level. 50+ songs since 2017 and not one of them is a dud. They are relentless in the pursuit of flawless perfection especially LIVE (one note off in a 2 hour concert will drive them nuts), despite their insane talent their insane practice results in these stunning LIVE performances. Their sound engineers are the same ones that handle Nightwish!!! Great reaction and explanation of singing.

[@danbuter]

Judging by her reaction at the beginning, and then saying, "coming back to this.", I suspect Beth watched it but cut it from the video, since there was no singing.

Helloooo, Beth. Maybe you are not a big fan of heavy metal, but you are, before the best band created in the last 20 years of heavy metal, in my opinion. This song is titled "Swan song + intro chopin", if you had played it from the beginning, you would see Miyako, the black haired girl, starting the song with an impressive piano intro. I recommend that you continue to react to them, they all have an impressive talent. To see Asami's voice quality, I suggest the following songs "Epilogue" live 2019, look it up like this. "Edge of the world" "Empty daydream" "Dancing whit the devil" "A frozen serenade". They have other songs more powermetal, but they also show the quality of voice and instruments. A big hug

[@iDEATH]

I already miss Miho. She's the bassist, recently left the band. ;( Ever since I discovered Lovebites I've though it was a bit unfair that they had to two such great guitarists. I am very happy to see more and more women getting into playing metal and rock here in the west, but it's crazy how Japan has been killing it with rock and metal for a while now, and with quite a few women and all-female bands. BAND-MAID is still top for me, but there are so many other great ones, like Mary's Blood, Unlucky Morpheus, Gacharic Spin, Scandal, Nemophila, Asterism (instrumental 3-piece, so not a fit for this channel, but all of them are excellent, and an incredible young woman on guitar, Hal-ca). I'm sure I'm forgetting some.

[@tobydawes6007]

@@tobydawes6007 I don't know. I'm not sure they've even said why she left, but apparently the had meetings to try and find a way for her to stay any all that stuff.

@@iDEATH was it infighting? Is this the first turnover or have they lost members before?

[@garykeeling2275]

@@tobydawes6007 There hasn't been an announcement as to why she left, but just a couple days before the announcement that she was leaving, Miho tweeted about her battle with depression, how she has been having a very hard time since her father died, and how she has felt that she hasn't done enough to help people directly during the pandemic (her father was a paramedic, and she is inspired by the help he gave to others). I'm not sure if all of that contributed to her decision to leave the band, but she may have simply felt pulled in another direction. She has posted some recent photos with her bass, so that suggests she does plan to return to music.

[@jokerdrogon2965]

Hi, Thank you for listening to LOVEBITES. First, the origin of their band name. The band name "LOVEBITES" is derived from the song "Love Bites (So Do Eye)" of the American hard rock band "Halestorm". Among their fans, it is also known as the "wolfpack". By the way, although they are Japanese, There are no songs that use Japanese. How the band was formed. On July 18, 2015, when DESTROSE went into hiatus, miho (Ba), who was in charge of the bass at DESTROSE, invited haruna (Dr), She left DESTROSE before and she started forming a new band. The two listened to the song of asami (Vo) sung on the demo tape of a professional composer, contacted them, and asami joined as the third member. On June 15, 2016, the name of the new band of miho and haruna was announced as "LOVEBITES" and the official website was opened. On June 29th, it was announced that midori (Gt) would join and support guitarist mi-ya (miyako) would join. "Miyako" stands on the right side of the stage. And "midori" stands on the left side. The latest information. Miho, the leader and bassist of this band Announced withdrawal from the band on 08.17.2021. Currently the band is temporarily suspended. Her withdrawal is said to be a fatal injury to the band's dissolution, Most expectation is that if they can welcome a new bassist Their activities are expected to resume. All of their songs are great and they are all sung in English. Please enjoy their performance.

No matter what gender you are, you feel empowered!

Now falling down the Lovebites rabbit hole requires reactions to many of their other great songs. Such as, Empty Daydream (for the backing vocals from band members) plus Holy War, Edge of the World, Don't Bite the Dust, Break the Wall, Raise Some Hell, The Awakening/Hammer of Wrath, Scream For Me, Set the World on Fire and Epilogue. That's a start. After that you can add some of my other favourite Japanese all-female bands - Nemophila, Band-Maid, Mary's Blood and Hanabie. Cheers from Canada.

Keep them coming, there are other songs that show more vocal versatility, and though we can argue over which is best, there is no bad choice for your next pick.

[@hiawatha.g]

Welcome to the best new metal band to come along in decades. In their five years of existence as a band, they set a standard that easily puts them on a par with the greatest bands of metal’s golden age. Other reviewers have described them as alien superheroes disguised as young women, angels sent to save us, princesses of metal, and angry bridesmaids. Whatever the description, I think one can say they have given metal a badly needed makeover and maybe a new lease on life. They have themselves said that part of their mission is to save heavy metal from darkness and obscurity. 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 soul of the band) had a vision of a new band in the style of the greatest 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 bands. The whole group then found Asami, the singer, who was doing soul and blues at the time (she also trained in ballet). Miyako has composed most 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. They studied all the great historical metal bands going back to Purple and Sabbath, through Maiden, Priest, Metallica, Helloween, Slayer etc. They toured with Dragonforce in 2019, and word from those in attendance is that next time around, it will be the ladies headlining. 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. Re.: Swan Song: Miyako, who composes a lot of Lovebites’ music, is a professional-level concert pianist, and was originally going to make classical music her career. When she was 18, she picked up a guitar, and is now one of the best metal guitarists in the world. She particularly likes the Romantic Era classical composers like Debussy, Dvořák, Chopin and Rachmaninoff. She composed “Swan Song” using elements of the New World Symphony (Dvořák) and Chopin’s Revolutionary Etude (official name Étude Opus 10, No. 12 in C minor). All five members of the band are Jedi-level musicians, but I think Miyako is a once-in-a generation talent, a true savant.

[@jamesgreen5431]

Your reaction is like many of us first hearing them. Just amazing players period across the board but extra points to Haruna the drummer IMHO. For vocal masterpieces other than this. Edge of the World, Empty Daydream, and Epilogue. For the whole band to smash in your head Holy War, Set The World on Fire are good picks.

You’re now being introduced to the “Wolfpack”, named after the Wolf theme the band has adopted on all their artwork. We leap on anyone enjoying Lovebites for the first time because we remember that feeling ourselves, only for us it became a permanent state.

Nice reaction Beth! Yeah, Japan is such a hidden treasure when it comes to music. So many talented bands... Both male and female. Among female it's so easy to find 5 to the top 10 to all-girl-bands all from early 80s with Shonen-knife and Show-ya to more recent ones as Band-maid, Lovebites, Doll$boxx etc... In Japan there is nearly just as much of giving a show, so many bands use costumes to stand out. As you've seen till now. Still you've not seen Gacharic spin with their quite colourful ones, Versailles 18th century french style etc. Kind of sad you didn't pick the one where Miyako is playing Chopins revolutionary etude, since it highly inspired her to make this piece. She is also one of my biggest musical heroes, starting playing piano at 3, and when she started to play the guitar at 18 she had reached concert level. That she is gorgeous and a big Star-Wars fan is also a +!

[@khellendross3573]

when people who haven't heard Lovebites ask me what they sound like, if they are familiar I usually say they sound most like Galneryus. You could in a way compare them to Dragonforce I suppose as well. But Galneryus is the most direct comparison. To be clear, Syu has basically no equal when it comes to guitarwork, but these ladies (both of them) come very close.

Thank you for your wonderful reaction. I am also impressed with ASAMI's voice quality and vocal control skills. By the way, the next story has nothing to do with your reaction ... There are some who criticize ASAMI for singing English lyrics. "If you can't sing with beautiful English accents, stop singing in English. Sing in Japanese!" ASAMI said in a NET-TV show: "There is a reason why I write and sing English lyrics. I think vocals are that produce called in the band. Thinking of , I feel that English is a more harmonious tone than Japanese for our Metal music. " I'm not a musician, but I'm convinced by ASAMI's ideas. (Rejecting music with lyrics that you can't hear means rejecting music that is sung in all foreign languages). (from JAPAN)

I'm not sure virtuoso can even describe Miyako. Right prior to this she played a piece by Chopin that led into it. She's a professional-level classical pianist that shreds on guitar and can play it as well as anyone, after having picked up a few books on how to play (and years and hours of practice and work). And she writes a great deal of their music, too. And sings backup on occasion, and knows her way around a drum kit. This song is a masterpiece. They're all so talented!

[@BagoPorkRinds]

Lovebites is the best metal band to come out in 30 years. IMO they are currently at the top of the pyramid above everyone when it comes to musicianship and song compositions. The lead singer, Asami has a background in R&B and Soul. There is a youtube video from 7 years ago of her covering Alicia Key's "If I Ain't Got You" when she was a lounge singer before joining Lovebites. Check it out. And the way she moves on stage is because she was a trained ballerina. She also moved to LA for a time to learn hip-hop dance too. More reactions of Asami & Lovebites please!

If I could recommend only one band....it would be Lovebites

[@thesaturdaymorningcowboy4198]

Lovebites, arguably the BEST heavy metal band on the planet, bar none!

[@joselopez666]

Thanks Beth for that reaction, now u have to check Unlucky Morpheus- Angreifer live 🤘

[@Hadesillo]

Asami (the singer) has a speaking voice a lot lower than what you would expect for such a princessy asian lady. And a more bossy character than you would expect too. This band started operating in 2017 when the bassist (Miho, big Iron Maiden fan) reunited some of the best performers in the female japanese metal scene she knew. But they lacked a singer that could do honor to Bruce. At the same time, Asami, that had trained ballet and piano since child and had spent some years singing R&B in the underground scene, had decided to try luck with rock after doing a couple of background vocals for two japanese bands (vamps, uverworld). She sent a demo tape to the company and the girls crossed with it. They mentioned it was like: "We do Heavy Metal." "What's this?" "That music like Metallica." "Who's that?" xD Now she is an incredible Heavy Metal frontwoman, very brucy.

[@coldburrito5818]

That was funny. I didn't know all the details, thanks.

Welcome to the world of wolfpack. Lovebites is the best one metal band right now on the earth. All the musicians on this band is insane and world class talent. Not a gimmick or fake. They effortless. Like the Goddesses. That's a great reaction and great analysis by the way. Especially when you explain about Asami the singer voice. Asami have a lot power and high voice. And for me her voice is unique too. Next try they song from live concert again. I'm suggestions the song "Set the world on fire" or "Edge of the world" Thank you for great reaction to Lovebites.

OK BETH ! NOW THAT WE HAVE YOU STARTED ON LOVEBITES , YOU NEED TO REACT TO EMPTY DAYDREAMS LIVE . IT'S MY FAVORITE ! I THINK YOU'LL LOVE IT . THE SINGER'S NAME IS ASAMI , I CALL HER QUEEN OF THE HIGH NOTE . ASAMI AND MIHO WROTE THE LYRICS (SADLY NO MIHO ANYMORE) . MOST OF THE MUSIC WAS WRITTEN BY MIYAKO ! THAT'S THE ONE WHO PLAYS PIANO AS WELL AS GUITAR ! MIDORI IS THE OTHER GUITARIST ! AND LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST IS , HARUNA ON DRUMS . AND I THINK SHE'S A LITTLE CUTIE PIE !

[@kent-oveprestberg3578]

Betty....Today is the day. I promise😁🤘

[@AC-eh6ei]

You should see more lovebites, they never disappoint, better live, 2020, 2021 and 2023. The best metal band today and new bassits in 2023 in live much better. Ty

[@ChuckJansenII]

Beth fan-girling is priceless. Don't worry, Beth. That's a normal reaction. We are all fan-boying over Lovebites. Edge of the World from this same concert is Asami's best vocal performance. You would be very impressed by her power up on a long high note. It also gets to show a bit of her ability to sing a soulful piece.

[@Fatherofheroesandheroines]

Yup yup. And this is just the tip of their iceberg.

[@oskisnutz]

I fell into the Japanese metal scene a year back, and have loved every bit of it. Next check out Nemophila - Oiran or Gacharic Spin - Mindset

[@MetaTaro]

When you trip and spill the bucket of skill all in one spot...

[@MegaChris213]

❤ LOVEBITES 5 Beautiful Goddess from Japan. Cheers ✌#LOVEBITES

[@pattymeals2395]

Nice. Didnt expect lovebites will reach your channel. Hope lovebites also reach the charismatic voice too.

[@nicolaspaquay]

Yeah, I hope that too. Lovebites need to be seen on channels with important audiences to increase their notoriety. it's a pity they only have 64k subs

[@AlucardsQuest]

@@nicolaspaquay I would hope The Charismatic checks them out too. I've been trying to get her to check LoveBites out without being too annoying. Of course like many she has a Patreon, but it's more like a voting system. Hopefully her fans will help out!

[@renatopeduto4088]

You will adore react to lovebites edge of the world

[@alexzenteno1]

Finally!,,,

[@synaesthesia2010]

do this again, but include the FULL performance, where Miyako plays a piece by Chopin on the piano first, it goes with the song

[@davecomstock9544]

I've only listened to two Lovebites songs so far, but they remind me a bit of Dragonforce...with a lot more variation to their songs, such as the piano outro (and intro) to this one. I have a couple Dragonforce CDs, but the songs all sound rather the same: one or two songs at a time is fine, but I can't see ever listening to an entire DF album from start to finish. I'm not sure I'll be getting any more of their music. If Swan Song and Holy War are representative of Lovebites' work though, I can imagine listening to complete albums at a time...or, at least, putting together a set of favorite songs -- which would definitely include Swan Song -- and listening to them one after the other. It's always so rewarding to stumble upon a new(ish) band that already has a number of albums to explore. Unleash The Archers is another band who've been around for a while but I've just started getting into. Thanks for another great reaction video, Beth!

[@andrewvidmar3488]

midori and miyako from lovebites are 2 of the 3 best guitarists in japan in my opinion but since your a vocal coach and if you want to see how high she can go you should react to Lovebites song Holy War from the same concert zepp divercity 2020 is what i think its called please let me know what you think

[@13uomini]

In this period Miyako exit with one EP with 6 metal songs, all covered on piano with her arrangements: watch please "Eagle fly free" (Helloween)! Thanks.

[@zajic851]

[@Jmaveryk]
