Guitar Player REACTS to LOVEBITES - Winds Of Transylvania (NEW SONG!)

[@hiawatha.g]

Ok, you asked for it! Some background on the Japanese scene: Japan has had an active all-girl metal scene since at least 1981. This is a starter list of all-female or (in four cases, mixed, female-led) metal, punk, hard-rock and post-rock bands. It's mostly alphabetical, except for the first three, which are at the top of the list for historical reasons. They set the table for the explosion of Japanese female hard-rock, punk and metal bands. Show-Ya (the original female J-metal band, founded in 1981, before Metallica-this is from their 30th (!) anniversary concert-and they are still touring): kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXvCZnqsaNt5oLM Shonen Knife (The world’s first bubblegum punk band, founded in 1981.

[@hiawatha.g]

Yes, it's connected to the story--they were commissioned to do the opening song for an anime. Here's the way I think about them: Imagine, somewhere in the galaxy, a race of benevolent beings who watch over us. They see our world falling into evil and chaos, and so, to help us, they create a team of superheroes and send them to Earth to save us. These heroes are disguised as beautiful young women dressed in white, and instead of using violence or force, they use music to battle the darkness. That is this band, and no description you’ve ever heard could prepare you for the real thing. Ok, subscribing.

[@akaalexanderking]

That's wonderful imagery my friend, thanks for the support!

[@JADK7507]

For the thrashier side of their style check out THUNDER VENGEANCE live on their official channel, it opened their Five of a Kind concert bluray released last year and it's definitely a throwback sound. For other heavier songs check out HAMMER OF WRATH and BREAK THE WALL, which both kick ass.

Hey! Yeah this is a brand new song written for the anime VLADLOVE. I love the gothic vibe of this one, these ladies cant stop amazing me. Miyako (the brunette) is a big fan of classical music like Rachmaninoff or Chopin, and she has said in interviews that being a classically trained pianist has helped her with Metal because like you said she also says that classical and metal are close together. You will see her playing piano more in other songs and because she is the main composer for the band you will see the inspirations she brings to their songs. If you want some thrash metal try "Break the Wall", "Hammer of Wrath" both Live from Five of a Kind 2020. Today was an awesome music day, a 2 and a half hours Band Maid live show and new Lovebites MV. Thanks for checking out these goddesses of metal and stay safe!

Great reaction! They composed this song as a title music for Vladlove, an anime about a female vampire. The director also made the animes Patlabor and Ghost in the Shell, both are already legendary, so it seems kind of a bigger deal.

@@akaalexanderking I think part of what makes Lovebites so captivating is their versatility. Even if ballads are not your thing, they execute them so incredibly well, and with such feeling, that you will get sucked in. There is nothing like one of Miyako-sama's slow, bluesy, gut-wrenching solos. You'll see!

[@daniel1138]

@@akaalexanderking Their ballads have some nice add ons to their sound: Miyako‘s beautiful piano playing and Asami’s full vocal range. And especially Edge of the World is a true metal epic, more kind of ballad adjacent than a ballad in the classical sense. I second the suggestion of Holy War as your next reaction, Asami truly shines there.

[@akaalexanderking]

Thanks, that's useful info 👍🏻

[@marcinpopawski8199]

Yes they play power metal trash rock n roll and classical music. Swan Song is a tipical example of conection these elements since piano intro Chopin Revolutionary Etude up to motifs of Swan Lake by Tchaykowski and main core Symphony of New World by Dvorak all mixed with power metal.

[@akaalexanderking]

That sounds fantastic! Will definitely check that out

[@donviajero2580]

Edge of the World is probably their song that best shows off the full range of what they can do, covering the gamut from piano ballad to hard rock, to power medal, with beautiful transitions between each movement within the song. It's a real vocal showcase as well. I also really like Miyako's extended piano intro to the live version of their song Empty Daydream. The song itself is more rock than medal, but I love the guitar solos on that one.

One of the reasons why J-ROCK has developed is anime. OP and ED are always required for animation, and being selected there will be a powerful appeal to the younger generation.

Lovebites is a very diversified band in many styles and genres and dragon force is only one style. you have only heard one song from what I gather and you have already jumped into the newest mv, I strongly suggest for you to an extensive reaction to Lovebites and many reactors has done especially my buddy Mike from WindleEffect who did 19 songs all together within a three week span. The song you just heard was written and composed by Miyako for an Anime series called "Vladlove", so many bands they could have asked to do this and the producers wanted Lovebites how awesome is this, these beautiful ladies are very underrated but are being recognized by others for the amazing writing skills they possess and the incredible lyrics by Asami.

I've actually never said they were influenced by DragonForce (which I'm honestly not a fan of), just pointed out that 'When Destinies Align' sounds similar to them: and that's simply because they share all of those bands as influences :) Already by listening to this one, it's clear they their range is much wider, spanning into thrash and more classic/symphonic influences instead of being more restricted to power metal.
