A forever masterpiece, like every song they've ever done. ALL GLORY to LOVEBITES and all my brothers and sisters in The Wolf Pack everywhere.

LOVEBITES - Shadowmaker lyrics: Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe But still I go on, my hunger is strong Hoping that someone will grab my hand Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world Maybe it's too late？ No one can save me From all of the darkness and solitude Cry, like shadows of the night I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive Despite going through this hell Cause still my heart has hope No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart Reckless and fast, how long will I last？ Dancing like puppets, I'm empty inside Fighting the fear, and grieving the dear Hoping that someday I'll be repaid Only my echoing heartbeats can prove that I'm here Am I all alone？ Even a faint light is too bright for me, I can't see a thing Hide, in shadows I reside I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go In desolated land knowing no escape But still I wish to live Just waiting for a somebody to notice me Before I fall down to depths of the abyss SOLO: midori / mi-ya / both / miya Caught in the noise, my thoughts are destroyed Trapped in the silence, it's so hard to breathe But still I go on, my hunger is strong Hoping that someone will grab my hand Stranded by moonlight I realize the cold of this world Maybe it's too late？ No one can save me from solitude Cry, like shadows of the night I tremble like a heartless soul, no place to go In desolated land knowing no escape But still I wish to live Just waiting for a somebody to notice me Before I fall down to depths of the abyss Like shadows of the night I carry all the pain inside to justify why I'm alive Despite going through this hell Cause still my heart has hope No matter if I'm torn apart, I'll play my part Before I drown with secret thoughts of my heart ----- lyrics: asami music: miyako arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) from Awakening From Abyss 2017

[@scottfield5849]

With this band it's easy to miss the drummer, visually, because the guitarists get so much attention, but I see her - she's so good she makes everything look so easy. Those double kicks are RELENTLESS! 🤘😎👍

[@davidornberg]

Their new album that came today : Judgement Day might be the best album for this Year. It is amazing. Both on Spotify and Apple Music!

[@jamie_lb_]

Lovebites guitar solos always drive me crazy 🤯

[@kielanuar213]

Goosebump every time I heard this song, an all time killer song of Lovebites..🤘🤘🤘👍👍

[@GrayFox14]

Thanks for the reaction! Sorry, I'll clarify. 🤗 LOVEBITES have TWO leader guitars. Song "Shadowmaker" from the album "Awakening from Abyss" (2017). The Music Video for "Shadowmaker" was also released in 2017. There are many videos of Reactors on MV "Shadowmaker" on KZbin 2 - 3 - 4 years ago. So you have no excuse for forgetting about LOVEBITES ( 🙃🤭🤗). LOVEBITES are the GODDESSES of heavy metal ! In 2018 , LOVEBITES won the prestigious Metal Hammer GOLDEN GODS Award for "Best New Band" (London,UK). The winners of the GOLDEN GODS Award in different years and in various categories were such famous bands and musicians,such as : Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Motörhead, Twisted Sister, Ozzy Osbourne, Lemmy Kilmister, Zakk Wylde, Nikki Sixx, Joe Perry, Judas Priest, Anthrax, Slayer, Saxon, Nightwish, Rammstein, Sabaton, Children of Bodom, Arch Enemy (and this is not a complete list). LOVEBITES is a Japanese all-female heavy metal band, formed in 2016 by former Japanese heavy metal band DESTROSE members Miho( bass,backing vocals) and Haruna(drums). The band has successfully performed at various major international rock-festivals many times .In the spring of 2018, LOVEBITES performed on the Japanese leg of the Warped Tour. In August 2018, they performed at Wacken Open Air (Germany), becoming the first Japanese all-female rock band to perform at the festival. Also in August 2018 they performed on the main stage of Bloodstock Open Air (UK). In 2019, LOVEBITES performed at the Download Festival in Donington (UK) and Download Festival in Madrid (Spain). Their performance in Donington was named by the festival organizers and Metal Hammer magazine as one of the highlights of the festival! In the same year they performed at the Graspop Metal Meeting (Belgium) and the Summer Sonic Festival (Japan). Unfortunately, the Covid pandemic that began in 2020 prevents LOVEBITES from performing at festivals and forced a drastic reduction of concerts. LOVEBITES is a phenomenal band, all the ladies are talented musicians! Over 5 years (2017-2021) they have recorded about 50 original songs and all the songs are very good ! In February 2023, the 4th studio album "Judgement Day" will be released ( + 10 new songs). 🐺Miho - bass, backing vocals (in August 2021 she left the band). 🐺Haruna - drums. 🐺Midori - guitars, backing vocals. 🐺Miyako (Mi-Ya)- guitars, piano, keyboards, backing vocals. 🐺Asami - lead vocals, piano. 🐺Fami - bass, backing vocals(since October 2022). 🐺Miho has been playing the piano since the age of 5. She started playing the bass guitar at school. Great bass player! The fact that such a wonderful band appeared is, first of all, the merit of Miho. She came up with the idea of starting a band and what kind of music the band would play. It's a mix of power metal and "old school" heavy metal (New Wave of British Heavy Metal). Miho brought these talented ladies together in LOVEBITES. 🐺Haruna has played drums since she was thirteen years old, she also plays keyboards. Haruna is the smallest (4 '9 ") , but appearances are deceiving. When Haruna sits down at the drums, this is the "little BIG Engine." She is one of the best drummers in Japan. 🐺Midori (blond hair) has been playing the piano since she was two years old and the electric organ since she was eight. She started studying guitar at the age of 20. Super guitarist, "Crazy Shredder". She surpasses many male guitarists in speed and technique of playing the guitar. Graduated from ESP / MI JAPAN ( Osaka ) , GIT-DX department (superfast guitar department). ESP / MI JAPAN is an International Music Institute , headquartered in Hollywood, California, USA. 🐺Miyako (black hair) has been playing the piano since the age of three, received a classical education (piano) and wanted to pursue a career as a pianist. She has been playing the guitar since the age of 18. Super guitarist! They call her "The Golden Touch" and she is a real musical genius. Miyako is the main composer of the band, she wrote 50% of the music. * In terms of teamwork , synchronization / harmonization of guitars , Midori and Miyako today are perhaps the best pair of guitarists in the world playing metal. One music critic said that two guitarists of this level (Midori and Miyako) in the same band is a crime!😊 🐺Asami started with R&B and soul music . She studied classical ballet for about 16 years (this is noticeable in her movements on stage, especially the movements of her hands). Started ballet lessons at the age of two. After leaving school, Asami lived for some time in the US, where she came to study jazz and hip hop dance. Plays the piano. Asami wrote most of the lyrics of the band's songs. 🐺Fami is 20 years old, plays bass, keyboards, guitar, writes songs, sings. She has already released her solo album, which she dedicated to graduating from school. Despite his youth, Fami has experience of collaboration with famous musicians.. All songs LOVEBITES are written in English. Unlike other metal bands, LOVEBITES are always on stage in white dresses . White dresses are their style. The Wolf is the mascot of LOVEBITES and is featured on all band's albums except the first EP "The Lovebites". The band's fans call themselves the 🐺Wolfpack🐺

[@davidhersrud5139]

Wait til you hit the new stuff with FAMI... 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@lonniekramlich6241]

When Asami can sing slower and lower, her voice is gorgeous. Try one of the " E " songs, Epilogue, Edge of the World or Empty Daydream. ❤️🎙🎸🎹🥁😎🤘P.S. Liked your pipe.😏👌

[@CaffeineNightOwl]

hello sky. understand the confusion: the "shadowmaker" MV came out in 2017, but with an ad with tourdates in it. this was replaced a couple of months ago by one without this ad. and what a coincidence: the ladies just (today) released a new MV called "stand and deliver (shoot em down)". they had to overcome an long hiatus, caused by founder and bassist miho leaving the band and the covid shutdowns. They didn´t know if and how the band could move on. some bandmembers married during the hiatus and became mothers. and they all took the pause to improve. now they have a new bassplayer, a new excellent album out today, and are better, faster, stronger and fitter than ever. thank you for coming back for this unique band and your appreciation of them. I highly recommend their new video.

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

This video came out on 2017. The original video had an advertisement in the middle of it for their first album and tour. They re-uploaded it10 months ago and removed the outdated ad. They did that with several other of their oldest videos.

[@jaimealmendro2657]

thanks for react to Lovebites , my fav metal band .

[@obud3777]

Midori and Miyako’s favorite song to play! 🎸🔥🎸🔥🤟🐺

[@richardcottrell2787]

You need to dive deeper into Lovebites. Their past live performances are even better. If you wish to skip that extensive discography here are 2 links with their new bass player. Judgement Day kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2TYeJ2mYrVqeqs Stand and Deliver kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2TYeJ2mYrVqeqs

[@ahodori2233]

The song "Shadowmaker" is from their first full-length album AWAKENING FROM ABYSS (October 2017). This music video was also released around the same time. It was originally re-uploaded with the album release date and tour schedule announcements inserted, removing the parts that were no longer needed. The music video for The Crusade (June 2018) was also re-uploaded.

[@user-pk1eo2ms9h]

This is a work shortly after the band was formed! It's an unthinkable level. Moreover, vocalist Asami had never sung heavy metal before joining Love Bites. Midori and Miyako are both lead guitarists, but having a lead guitarist of this level in the same band is insane! (And both of them are evenly level) Haruna on the drums uses cymbals and bells in a different dimension, and the accuracy of the high-speed two-bass is amazing! As for the bassist, Miho, who was the band leader, left the group, and 20-year-old transcendent bassist Fami joined. (If you want to know Fami's terrifying skill level, you should watch her video Alien Alien.) これがバンドを結成して間もない作品です！ とても考えられないレベルです。 しかもボーカルのアサミは、ラブバイツに入るまではヘビーメタルを歌った経験が有りません。 ミドリとミヤコは2人ともリードギタリストですが、このレベルのリードギタリストが同じバンドに所属しているのは非常識です！(しかも2人とも互角レベル) ドラムのハルナは、シンバルとベルの使い方が異次元で、高速ツーバスの正確さは驚異的です！ ベーシストは、バンドリーダーだったミホが脱退し、新しく20歳の超絶技巧ベーシストのファミが加入しました。 (ファミの恐ろしいテクニックレベルが知りたければ、彼女の動画「エイリアン エイリアン」を見るべきです。)

[@kathyavalos9809]

That was insane! I've never heard of lovebites! I've been missing out!

[@SkyAndersonReacts]

Yay!!!! I love this comment sooo much and I’m happy that you enjoyed it!!!

[@joshhefner8179]

New Album Judgement Day with new Bass player Fami came out Wednesday it sounds great.

[@L.A55]

You will love each and every song from these metal Goddesses !.. Immeasurable skill..each a virtuoso..Please keep reacting, and you'll discover the greatness that every fan hads come to know about Lovebites..(New video:Stand and Deliver)

[@dg3258]

EPIC and metal AF, like always. This was the 1st song I ever heard from Lovebites and haven't looked back since...listen to them almost exclusively. Go with the newest MV releases like everyone mentioned. They do not disappoint nor does their new album released today, Judgement Day. They have just napalmed the heavy metal genre! Thank you for coming back to them!

[@zeplica2004]

my favorite lovebites song but you should of done the live version!!!! nice reaction.

[@ericsaari2901]

Amazing band! Live is always better though, especially from them! I suggest checking out something live.

[@alastairmcintyre4752]

As doubtless almost everyone has said you've got two guitarists - LEAD & LEAD - both of whom didn't take up guitar until their very late teens . Miyako ( the more serious looking one ) is self taught !

[@Patrick_H.]

Happy you got back to Lovebites. You are behind the curve - they just dropped their first new album in 3 years YESTERDAY. Two MVs have been released. Judgement Day (Title Track), and Stand And Deliver.

[@davidhersrud5139]

This being one their early releases (Its a re release) is amazing MIYAKO AND MIDORI are both leads ., HARUNA (little big engine-drums) wears slip ons MIHO bass has left the band in 2021 and of course ASAMI the voice....This has been one of my all time favorites for sure., The new album just released is already number 1 on metal charts already... and 2 new MV S ARE KILLER...

[@sipke9485]

Haruna on drums, Miyako and Midori on guitar, Asami vocals and Miho on bass (Fami replaced her)

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

It is actually TWO lead guitarists because they alternate the role of lead and rhythm(backup) guitar. Midori and Miyako are equals in this band.

[@shazariahl]

This was what started it for me. I saw the original video with the ad and I was hooked.

[@fab1901]

On 18 June 2018, LOVEBITES won 'BEST NEW BAND' at the Metal Hummer Golden Gods 2018 awards organised by the British metal magazine METAL HUMMER.Former R&B and Soul singer Asami (Vo) has transformed into the lead singer of the Japanese heavy metal band. Trained in classical ballet from the age of two, she was inspired to become a singer after singing the national anthem at a minor league baseball stadium in the USA. LOVEBITES join DragonForce on UK tour 2019. Asami (Vo) of LOVEBITES appeared as a guest on stage at Halestorm Download Festival UK 2019, singing alongside "Lzzy" Hale on Halestorm's 'Love Bites', which gave the band their name. On 2 December 2019, LOVEBITES was the support act for the Tokyo leg of Halestorm's Japan tour. On 17 August 2021, LOVEBITES took an extended break after the departure of their leader, bassist Miho. The remaining girls organised an audition for a new bassist from around the world and recruited a new bassist called Fami(Ba). Fami is a five-string bassist who can dance, sing and play and has 671,000 KZbin subscribers. You will be amazed by new bassist Fami's slapping and fast finger picking. If you watch "Alien Alien" on her KZbin channel, which was uploaded 4 years ago with 10,530,000 listens on her content, you will be amazed at her world-class slapping skills. Fami had his signature headless bass WOODLINE5AC-HL Fami from the Bacchus Handmade Series when he was 19 years old. KZbin channel "Fami。" [alien alien Bass cover]" kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5C4oq2qrL50hbc LOVEBITES is fully recovered and the music video was released on 24 December 2022.(Japan time) "JUDGEMENT DAY" is the first song from the long rest. "JUDGEMENT DAY" proves that LOVEBITES is back in full force and justifies the adoption of Fami. Lovebites Official Site "LOVEBITES / Judgement Day [MUSIC VIDEO]" Asami(Vo) Miyako(G - Key ‐ Piano ) Midori(G - Guitar white) Haruna(Dr) Basist of this song. Miho(Ba) First bassist Miho was playing this 'Shadowmaker'. New bassist from 'JUDGEMENT DAY' songs. Fami(Ba) New bassist

[@richardjaimepr]

Ok your use of fbombs I say this with the utmost respect… I now love you 😍. Please watch more Lovebites. Oh and they have dropped 2 news songs w/ videos.

[@Rell-bb3xo]

Sky you look amazing and beautiful when you have time to watch another LoveBites video from them you should listen and watch judgement day it's from their new album

[@nikostheater]

They played live in their last live dvd and the live version is even better than the studio recording.

[@user-hw1cf2fi6r]

In this song I hesitate to smoke.

[@randomchord]

At times I feel like there is a missed anime opportunity here. At first we have these drop-dead gorgeous, tiny little Japanese ladies, polite and reserved and very quit when they talk. Then we see them in their beautiful dresses and such... But as each crosses onto the stage, grabs their instrument, sits on their drum throne, the beast is released. Dragons and hannyas with 20 fingers playing guitar and bass and four arms on the drums. There's a line in an AC/DC song "The face of an angel smiling with sin The body of Venus with arms" 😁🍻

[@judaspriest9597]

How can you forget such a band??? Hopeless !And Lovebites watch Live ! "princess"...

[@PaleHorseShabuShabu]

Thanks for returning to LOVEBITES. This was their second video, but it wasn't actually uploaded to their channel within the last year. Before that it had only been uploaded to their label's channel. As far as their lineup goes, while I don't think there's anything wrong with being a rhythm guitar player (after all, I love and adore Miku of BAND-MAID), that role doesn't truly apply to this band. Midori (you paused on her at 4:48) and Miyako (shown alone at 5:51) are wildly-skilled guitarists each of whom can and have been the only guitarists in other bands.

[@Mrlovebitten]

Yeah I understand the confusion about the dates between the upload and the album release lol the original video that was uploaded in 2017 had an advertisement for a tour in 2017 but it was outdated so they re-uploaded the video in its entirety the way it was ment to be seen

[@garykeeling2275]

Two LEAD guitarists, actually. Midori is on the white guitar, and Miyako is on the brownish gold guitar. They're usually easier to tell apart, as Midori has had blonde hair and a ponytail for the last few years, but this was early on when she still had her natural hair color.

[@alekhidell]

You really need to jump ahead with Lovebites because you will be so far behind the curve. Check the two most recent MV’s before you check anything else. They both feature new bassist (and youngest member at 20) Fami. You can always go back to the older stuff afterwards but you’re missing something very special developing.

[@boggy6060]

Fuck yeah !!!! The best metal band in the last 20 years. Fucking awesome !!!!

You have no idea when you listen to their other song... chopin intro Swan song...you gonna like it..i promise.. please try to react LOVEBITES 🙏🤟👍

[@tajamatakkarles7259]

Hellooo,Sky.I suggest you react more to this band,they are very talented.If you like powerful metal,I suggest the songs "Awakening ,the hammer of wrath" "Raise some hell""Set to the world on fire".If you like to mix heavy and fairy tales ,the songs "Edge of the world" "A Frozen serenade" ""Swan Song+ intro Chopin" and if you want to listen to one of the most beautiful heavy ballads ever,the song "Epilogue "is a master piece

[@marks5451]

The drummer is Haruna. If you haven't already I suggest you check out Swansong with Chopin intro kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpSwh6eoq9V9ps0 🤘🤘
