Miyako ( dark-haired guitarist ) is releasing an EP of piano covers next month. Songs included are.... Battery ( Metallica ) The Loner ( Gary Moore ) Far Beyond the Sun ( Yngwie Malmsteen ) Eagle Fly Free ( Helloween ) Burn ( Deep Purple ) Addicted ( LoveBites ) Chopin Intro + Swan Song, live from 2020, is a masterpiece !! 😏❤️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘

[@metalmark1214]

This has become my favorite band in the last 6 months over previously Iron Maiden since the 80's. Depending on which way you want to go slower - Swan Song with Choplin intro or Epilogue or totally flat out with Dissonance or Soldier Stands Solitarily on their newest album. All great songs.

[@martinarchist]

What up Mark?! Lovebites is what Maiden was to me. I never thought I would ever love a band again like this.

[@jmetallover]

Thanks for giving the ladies another try. Miyako (Dean/dark hair) is a classical trained pianist, try Swan Song with Chopin Etude intro LIVE to see just how your statement about classical music and metal truly is. Try Raise Some Hell LIVE to see some real crowd interaction. These women are world class and Midori/blond/ESP and Miyako a/k/a the M&M show are the best duo especially LIVE playing today, see Sign of Deliverance LIVE to see how they are in total sync at insane speeds. Yeah LIVE is a popular term as these women are flawless perfection on a stage.

[@CaffeineNightOwl]

exactly, what I was thinking.👍

[@ahodori2233]

The pentagram on the drum represents their third full-length album "Electric Pentagram," which was released one month before this concert, and the band performed mainly songs from this album. The pentagram has also been used as a "talisman" around the world since ancient times, and in Japan it is famous as the family crest of the Yin-Yang master "Abe no Seimei," who was active 1,000 years ago.

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

They use an upright pentagram because they don't support Satanism. The pentagram represents the five band members and is a symbol of protection and unity.

[@user-zr4xc3yt6q]

Welcome back and thank you for doing this reaction to lovebites again, this ladys are so talented, especially gitar but that drummer is my favourite drummer from lovebites,her kick bass drum are so solid, vocol love it, LOVEBITES ROCK

[@kielanuar213]

Phenomenal Lovebites.. yeah 👍👍🤘🤘

[@epipu]

The star symbol on the drum rotates.

[@JFrancoDrums]

Cool, thanks for checking them out again!! You kind of described a big influence in this band, Miyako playing the Dean is a classical trained pianist, then she picked up the guitar too!! One of the things this band does so well is bringing classical influences to their sound, and Miyako said the same you did, how classical music and heavy metal are so close to each other!! 🤘

[@mozartfx1]

Great comment about Metal and classical music. It’s one of the few interesting comments I’ve ever heard on a reaction. Cheers.

[@markmathewssgbcpenaltyboxs6389]

Love this song. I love Lovebites. Glad you gave them another shot.

[@repobob]

Glad you came back to check another one out. Lovebites are as Metal as any band and their range goes from Rock to Power Metal, Speed to Thrash, with some prog metal mixed in here and there. I am 53 and when I listen to them, I can pick up elements from my teenage years from bands I grew up listening to while hearing their own spin on it and that is what makes them special to me. I hope you continue on your journey to listen more and discover how talented they are not just as musicians but as composers as well. Have a good day Sir.

[@hardknox1917]

Lovebites break the wall , will melt your face off

[@dg3258]

Second this recommendation! 🤘

[@callofodin]

Thanls for that!

[@evilvolts]

Miyako plays classical music on Piano also in Swan Song with Chopin Intro she starts off on the piano then hops on her guitar does the solo and at the end of songs hops back on Piano for the outtro.Swan Song with Chopin Piano Intro kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXPLpaSdnr14d5Y

[@CDMS_pt]

Lovebites rules. 🤘😝🤘

[@CaffeineNightOwl]

they already had no peer back then 2020. in august 2021 they went on hiatus, because the bassplayer miho left on friendly terms and two of them (singer asami and black haired guitarist miyako) became mothers. now they are back with new bassplayer fami and a groundbreaking album "judgement day.", two of their concerts of the tour in japan in september are already sold out. I´d recommend to check "soldier stands solitary", the best song from the new album. very rewarding, like the deep lovebites rabbit hole. thanks for coming back to them, bro.

[@kyles5513]

Ya, Japan had some pretty strict covid rules and they all just listen and deal with it over there but now it's back to normal I think.

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

FYI - at the time this video was made their two guitar players had only been playing guitar for about 12 years.

[@obud3777]

Next Lovebites song: "Set The World On Fire" Live! 🎸🔥🤘

[@dg3258]

Second this recommendation! 🤘

[@pinoypower69]

pentagram right side up is a STAR bro:

[@callofodin]

Yes, I know. I guess you didn't get the humor.

🤘

[@faintsmile88]

🐺🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Amazing

[@fab1901]

Thank you for following LOVEBITES. The pentagram on the Haruna drum is not a Western pentagram. The pentagram is surrounded by a wolf representing the five girls. In Japan, the five elements of yin and yang, which became the basic concept of Yin-Yang Tao, or the five elements of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, expressed their conflicting functions, and the pentagram was valued as a talisman to ward off all kinds of evil. Thus, the pentagram represents the protection of these women. P.S. Miyako(G-Key and Piano Black hair) turned 33 years old on April 5, 2023.

[@sansiaray777]

Damn rock on ladies 🤘❤️🤘

[@1970Phoenix]

The most musically talented hard music band on the planet.

[@paulread4886]

If you like a classical blend you must check out Swan Song live with Chopin intro by guitarist and composer Miyako, a true genius.

[@evilvolts]

Not sure about Joe Satriani but I know Miyako loves Gary Moore and Ritchie Blackmore. They studied all the greats though from what I heard even back to Iommi.

[@garykeeling2275]

According to the ladies, the main guitar influences for Miyako (dark hair) are Gary Moore, Ritchie Blackmore, Kirk Hammett and Eddie Van Halen, and more recently Yngwie Malmsteen. Blonde-haired Midori cites Kiko Loureiro, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Nuno Bettencourt as her major influences, as well as Tipton and Downing. It's entirely possible that Miyako is also influenced by Satriani, but she has not mentioned him specifically, as far as I know (though she does mention Kirk Hammett, who is a Satriani protege). Midori is the one who is more likely to have influences from classically-oriented masters like Satriani and Vai, whereas Miyako trained her guitar skills in a more blues-oriented direction. That has been changing lately, though, especially as Midori has been teaching Miyako some of her guitar skills.

[@davidornberg]

Actually.. The pentagram has been used in Zen buddism (Religion in Japan) for a long time. The pentagram has been seen on Sumerian 3500 BCE pottery and about 5000 years ago the symbol was found in the Liangzhu culture of China. 1 point up is male, 2 points up is female. In modern time someone thought they could use the pentagram for the dark side. SO the Pentagram has another meaning in Asia! Even Christians once commonly used the pentagram to represent the five wounds of Jesus.

If you want more crow engaged watch: Braveharted live in Tokio 2019! Thanks.

[@Alpha-Omega-TFOA]

The pentagram, five-sided star, is actually a symbol believed to represent harmony and balance. In fact, Japanese Shinto religion has used the pentagram as a religious emblem for centuries. Dating back over a thousand years, Japanese “onmyouji,” shamanistic masters of ying and yang, have studied astronomy, astrology, geography and other natural sciences. The pentagram, or five pointed star symbolizing the five basic elements wood, fire, soil, gold and water. Inverted one is considered evil and auspicious.

[@markushowald6449]

it is THE BAND ONLY... and yes, I am part of European Wolfpack desperately waiting for a world Judgement Day Tour... (because this is simply the best in music)

[@mauriciorodrigues500]

🤘🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🤘

[@a_un]

LOVEBITES songs for those who love metal and classical... *Lost In The Garden *DYSTOPIA SYMPHONY These songs were composed by Miyako, a guitarist and classical pianist. I think it's a wonderful piece that blends classic masterpieces into metal. However, both are only music tracks, unfortunately there are no live videos or music videos.

[@thedocofrock1890]

no fade out in the studio version either. out of their 60 songs only 2 come to mind that fade out in the end - the way it should be. no fade outs.

[@evilvolts]

Midori as far as I know has influences from Malmsteen and Bettencourt but not sure beyond that.

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

Miyako's influences are Gary Moore and Yngwie Malmsteen.

[@evilvolts]

I heard Blackmore and Moore and that Midori was Malmsteen and Bettencourt. I could be wrong though.

[@christiancouvidou4777]

🤘🐺速い👸🤘

[@Wirmish]

Next song: 𝑩𝑹𝑬𝑨𝑲 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑾𝑨𝑳𝑳

[@outwest1014]

The young lady you commented on early is Miyako, she pick up the guitar when she 17/18 yo. Self-taught, just a How-To book and a guitar!! But she began piano lessons when she was 3 yo!! She is the main composer and does her own arrangements. Asami, vocals is the main lyricist. You need to listen to the Japanese bands of the 80's/90's before you state who influenced the Japanese bands of today.

[@callofodin]

I was commenting only on the style and patterns, which were very Satriani-esque.

[@eatsmylifeYT]

If I remember correctly, she says she's greatly influenced by Ingwie.

[@callofodin]

That makes sense. But she doesn't play at Yngwie speed. I think she can, but she doesn't. I hear Satriani all over of it.

[@ebm-everythingbutmainstream]

Playing guitar for more than 30 years? What about reacting to "Scream For Me"? 14 guitar solos in less than 7 minutes! You like Classical Music? Listen to "Swan Song - inc. Chopin Intro"

[@callofodin]

Deal!

[@anediareese]

Well excellent performance but not exactly my type of music. Lol guess I am just getting old. Thank you for sharing.

[@dregeye]

@Anedia, "Odin's" previous, first listen to LOVEBITES might be more to your liking. They have a wide range of styles, often blended within each individual song, and a twin-guitar instrumental segment along the way. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2GZqn2Xrqh0aMk < Odin's first or "Spellbound" LIVE 2021: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6HGdoWqbNuWbdU

[@evilvolts]

you may want to check out slower songs of theirs like Swan Song with Chopin Piano Intro kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXPLpaSdnr14d5Y A Frozen Serenade www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae8pQVu Epilogue kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYqpZ2upmqqAbbM Edge of The World kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4vNqYCgd9Sjbdk where Asami's R&B background pays off with her vocals on balladesque style songs.

[@richard75200]

You're never too old for good music

[@jlrutube1312]

Good job reacting. If I might be so bold as to ask for a favor it would be to either not pause during the lead guitar parts, or if you have to do that, then at least rewind a little before you start back. Thanks ever so much.

[@callofodin]

I take your point. And I agree.

[@梶原啓弐]

コメントは曲が終わってからで良いと思う。 KZbinrの不満な所がこれだ!

[@PrizmNak]

how come you are right now i'm a fun

[@callofodin]

I'm not sure what that means.

[@maurograziati3768]

stop solo????😮😮😮

[@randypeters366]

You should've paused it a few more times during the guitar solo. That's always a good thing. The more pauses during solos the better. SMH. Other than that, good reaction.

[@callofodin]

Point taken. lol
