LOVEBITES / The Hammer Of Wrath 'LIVE' MUSIC VIDEO REACTION!

[@kevinbowland4686]

2 elite guitarists, an elite drummer, a 21 yr old prodigy bassist and an incredible frontwoman and awesomeness follows..Thrash, speed, power metal, ballads they own it. At this point I would pay to see them do nursery rhymes

[@alekhidell]

Ahem, “Elite vocalist who is also an incredible front woman”. Thank you…😉

You’re absolutely correct. They don’t have a bad song. There is not one song in their entire repertoire that I would skip. And I never get tired of listening to any of them.

As always, your emotions speak for themselves. This group is amazing. When you put one foot on the stand, the back becomes much easier.

LOVEBITES - The Hammer Of Wrath lyrics: What's the worst way to die？ Burning to death, or drowning？ Everyone laughs in derision There's no hope at all Why is the world rotting away Howling in pain, they slowly die All of the sorrow is murderous The insanity (Burn up) They're calling me (Burn up) It's do or die (Burn up) Get ready for hell (Bring down justice to the wicked) Don't look away from the mistakes Open your eyes, and see the truth When lightning cracks the blackened sky Listen to the screams of distress It's like a bad dream but it's not No way to get out, a living nightmare Bring down the Hammer of Wrath Who will be the next to burn？ God only knows the victim Everyone knows they are innocent All the hope is gone In despair they pass away There was no hope to begin with Even the angels are giving up Looking down on us Will this night ever break dawn (Bring down justice to the wicked) SOLO: midori / mi-ya [miyako] What's the worst way to die？ Burning to death, or drowning？ Everyone laughs in derision There's no hope at all Why is the world rotting away Howling in pain, they slowly die All of the sorrow is murderous The insanity (Burn up) They're calling me (Burn up) It's do or die (Burn up) Get ready for hell (Bring down justice to the wicked) Don't look away from the mistakes Open your eyes, and see the truth When lightning cracks the blackened sky Listen to the screams of distress It's like a bad dream but it's not No way to get out, a living nightmare Bring down the Hammer of Wrath Bring down the Hammer of Wrath SOLO: mi-ya [miyako] ----- lyrics: miho music: miho & Mao arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami) & Mao from Awakening From Abyss 2017

[@hiawatha.g]

First song of the first set in front of a live audience in more than two years. You can see they were just a little hyped up for this.

[@L.A55]

Appreciate your reaction..Lovebites =Next level perfection. My view of Miyako is not the same as many reactors though.. Her subtle head movement during her solos, and especially her hands show the passion on guitar or piano more than a pained, or gleeful grimace that other musicians might use.. just my opinion

[@jawosammadennhier7062]

I assume that Miyako is just _focused_ . When Midori is focused, she can even show a _grim_ face. 😁 And yes: The way, Miyako plays her music, is showing her inner and honest connection with what she is playing. I personally do not care at all about Miyako's face expression - as long as she continues to deliver the musical excellence I am used to get from her. 😉 From her personal channel videos, I know, that she is a kind and approachable young lady off stage, whom I like to support. And she is a musical _prodigy_ . That is all that matters to me. 😊

[@JuanCarlos-vl2bd]

Estoy contigo,estas damas te alegran el dia y alzan tu espiritu a lo mas alto,las caritas de complicidad de Asami y Fami no tiene precio

[@zoranbl1990]

It has some Slayer vibe but made with so much elegance, talent and power. Kerry King can retire because we have Miyako and Midori now haha. There is no band like this. These girls are bringing back that sound of classic heavy and thrash from the 80ies and power metal from the 90ies with some new and exciting flavour. You just gotta love it. So badass.

[@boyzyu]

In addition to Slayer, you can probably throw in Testament and early Metallica as well. Or simply - thrash, the Lovebites way.

[@athlonen]

While I totally agree with what you're saying, when you look at it from just this song - Hammer of Wrath - the influence here is clearly ANTHRAX. You can take all of the ladies out of this song, replace them with the classic lineup of Anthrax, and it sounds like this would be the opening track off of Anthrax's Among the Living from 1986.

[@boyzyu]

@@athlonen High praise for the ladies indeed if we start comparing their thrash tracks to "Among the Living". This is just a personal opinion - I rate "Among the Living" as the third best thrash album of all time after (1) "Master of Puppets" and (2) "Reign in Blood".

[@TheCyberMantis]

Yeah, I hear all these influences. Testament, Metallica, Anthrax, Slayer, it's all there.

[@boyzyu]

@@TheCyberMantis Yep, all these influences, but I argue that with "Dissonance", the ladies have begun to create a unique thrash sound of their own

[@athlonen]

@@boyzyu It's more than that.. it's more like a game of "guess which band influenced this song". Hammer of Wrath? Anthrax. Break The Wall? Metallica (think the reverse composition of Master of Puppets) mixed with Testament and Slayer. Holy War? Iron Maiden. Judgement Day? Yngwie Malmsteen. Set The World on Fire? Slayer and Metallica. Stand and Deliver (Shoot 'em Down)? Motorhead. It's all there, and while they can easily headline their own world tour, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Metallica asked them to open for their shows. They already did for Dragonforce, and Herman Li himself said that if they toured with LoveBites again, it would be Dragonforce opening for them.

[@ahodori-dl5hz]

The Hammer Of Wrath" is one of their earliest works and appears on their first full-length album, AWAKENING FROM ABYSS. And along with "The Awakening," the first instrumental song on the same album, it is a song that fans are familiar with, having been used frequently in their openings and encores until 2020. In fact, among their repertoire of about 60 songs, there are very few songs with solo parts for bass and drums, and it was chosen as the opening song for this revival concert partly because it was the first time FAMI performed it, and partly because it was suggested by a fan.

[@MrEd-qg8td]

This song was written by Miho. The original Bassist

Since you love solos, another artist to check out is the video Hizaki "Rusalka". It's a blend of melodic beauty and powerfully heavy riffage into one extended instrumental solo.

Try this: Onmyo-za (“gathering of yin and yang”) are a female-fronted Japanese metal band with a twin-guitar attack. Formed in 1999, by bassist/vocalist WATABI, the band wear ancient style of kimono. Lead vocalist Kuroneko (Black Cat) brings Enka-style vibrato to their songs. Their early work had a Bay Area Thrash influence, as you can hear in this live video from a tiny club, circa 2000 (audio from the studio recording): Onmyo-za - Kasha No Wadachi (火車の轍) - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jn3Ke4aIqJl6r5Isi=KZjL4UARZfLW7aJST

Thank you so much for *feeling* the song. Awesome reaction! 😊 "Clockwork" Lovebites serving Metalheads again. 😊🤘These priestesses of Happy Metal just are not _able_ to disappoint or to bore. 😊They shine a light by their joy of music, and by their musical excellence. 😊 And they always look like, "You know, this is no big deal, we do this all the time", Miyako even looking like bored, and they _smile kindly_ while going to the technical limits. But it is a _big_ deal they contribute. To me, Lovebites are a world phenomenon. The fact, that they are not known better to the world of Metal, is incomprehensible to me. 🤷‍♂ A _travesty_ . Personally I think, that they should be able to tour all across the globe by now. 🐺

[@Gavrev]

Having listened across their catalogue their style encompasses a swathe of genre and band influences.. They've crafted for themselves a melting pot of everything they wish to say in a form which embraces the souls of Anthrax, Slayer, Testament, Helloween, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple.. and deliver it all with excellent musicianship and camaraderie. They never cease to amaze.

I'm surprised you didn't mention Slayer in your "Break the Wall" reaction (did you?) because that song is the most Slayeresque IMO. You need to make a playlist for Lovebites reactions so I don't have to search for what you still "need" to react to. They are off the wall crazy good.
