METALHEAD ENVIES| LOVEBITES| "BURDEN OF TIME"

[@zoranbl1990]

Only Miyako can play guitar and piano at the same time with both instruments sound amazing. She even plays bass and drumms a little bit while making music for all Lovebites songs in her home studio. And singing backing vocals live too. Miyako can do everything. That diversity and talent is very rare. Love that girl so much. The whole band is amazing but she is really special

[@markmathewssgbcpenaltyboxs6389]

Absolutely my favorite band and love this song! Love Miyako playing piano and guitar at same time. Talent is unreal in this band. Happy New Year and thank you for reacting to this video.

Reindeer blue is the color they call it in Japan. Midori is an EII player and endorsed artist. She has a few Slick E-II's as well as ESP GCA's. Miyako has probably 30 guitars but she primarily uses her Dean's. She also has Fender,Gibson,etc........ in her stable. Pretty slick how she can shred on Piano with one hand and accompany the rest of the band with the rhythm guitar with the other hand. She is God level.....Hell they are All God level quite honestly.

[@beldin2987]

I would like to see Midori together with Emppu since he also mostly plays a purple ESP and both also like to do the "power stance" on stage 😄🤘🏼

[@johnpaul4784]

I've been following them since I saw them on YT and every song is pure pleasure. I am 70 years old which means I have seen and heard a lot of bands but NEVER of this level of talent and class. As for Miyako, who could make music with a frying pan, comb or toothbrush, I think she's the musical genius of the last 20 years. And bringing together 5 talents of this level in the same group only happens every 50 years! And even...

[@785boats]

I'm just a few years younger than you man, but I agree with you 100%. I also grew up with all the 'Big Bands' from way back in the early 70's. In the future, these women will be seen as a big influence on music in the 21st century. They are an important band.

[@yeheskielbramti4785]

love this live version, it has a surprise in the middle of the song just like Frozen Serenade. I hope the live version of "Frozen Serenade" is available again, but you can listen to the studio version while waiting for available again on youtube.

I love A Frozen Serenade live version too.

LOVEBITES - Burden Of Time lyrics: Sleepless nights, with every passing day I'm dreaming life away Faceless moon, tell me, what would you say If you could curse your fate The daylight will die Silent noise is ringing in my head Killing me through the night Scars might fade, but the pain will remain Save me before the dawn As days go by I'm standing here Still fighting it One day I must change (Don't waste your time) Time is fair to everyone (Don't waste your life) Time and tide wait for no one Don't ever be afraid to die young and live fast (Don't waste your time) Time is slipping away from us (Don't waste your life) Time keeps changing, and so do we Live as if today was the last day Starless nights, with every passing day I'm swinging life away An empty glass is falling down again What's happening in my life？ The blood stains remain Flames will ignite Searching for the light In this time In due time I'm standing here Still fighting it One day I must change (Don't waste your time) Time is fair to everyone (Don't waste your life) Time and tide wait for no one Don't ever be afraid to die young and live fast (Don't waste your time) Time will never be the same (Don't waste your life) Time is running out too soon Racing against the clock But we can't escape from tomorrow (Don't waste your time) Time is slipping away from us (Don't waste your life) Time keeps changing, and so do we Live as if today was the last day ----- lyrics: miho music: miho & Mao arrangement: LOVEBITES (miho, haruna, midori, miyako, asami)

[@gatograto]

and Hammer of Wrath was on KZbin once but it's gone too. This studio version's got insane sustain of Asami at the end. It really is crazy. Some reactor said Asami did not have power....what a moron. Asami is a typical power singer with very high skill.

[@pattymeals2395]

Dystopia symphony cant have a live version cause its not played live yet and the band now is on haitus cause there bassist miho left and miyako just give birth. Just check it out its a different lovebites so much technical stuff.

[@johnestes9316]

This studio show is my favorite version of their first album.

[@dregeye]

Thanks for more LOVEBITES! This was recorded at "Soundcrew Studio, Japan" "Awake Again, LIVE from Abyss" was a pay-per-view stream as celebration of the 3rd Anniversary of the release of their first full CD "Awakening From Abyss" from October 25, 2017 on October 25, 2020. It was only available as "made to order" for a few days. I call that 'instant out-of-print' and have been encouraging management to re-issue it, with no success, yet. (I was fortunate enough to have viewed and got the Blu-ray, but want Wolf-Pack to enjoy it too, and support the band.) They perform the full CD tracks, start to finish, and the disk has the bonus 'cover' of Haruna's favorite Metal band, Helloween's "Eagle Fly Free" kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqCVYnt_gb-pj6c btw, I watched your band "The Cardinal Endeavor" and really enjoyed it. The LIVE gig at "Hope House". Thanks for sharing it.

[@rockdariff]

Thank you👊🏻….haha see this studio version is something I wish my band would do…im glad you enjoyed us at hope house

[@emilyinoregon6967]

Hi dregeye, the Awake Again Livestream was done in 2020, before I even knew Lovebites existed. And then DVD/Blu-ray, but in a very limited edition. I would LOVE to own a copy of this. You've been encouraging management to make it available again? How have you reached them? I'd like to offer management my encouragement too. (Don't worry, I'll try to be nice 😉) 🤘🤘🐺

[@TheCyberMantis]

Lovebites is #1. I think you are finally starting to realize it. The more you see and hear.... the more you will understand.

[@erikjohnson1960]

No, when Midori is playing the purple E II the song has E as bass string, but when she changes to the black E II the bass string is downtuned to D..

[@heavymetalisthelaw1227]

I feel what your saying when it comes to the mainstream stuff like Guns and Rose's, motley crue, ect.... I cant really listen to them anymore but I respect what they've done. Thats also what makes lovebites one of my favorites is how they highlight everything we love in metal and bring it all together in one package. The one riff during the verse reminds me of kill time by paradox from the 80s to me. Another song where the girls do backing vocals is empty daydream live kzbin.info/www/bejne/oonLkKiDgp5noLc As for dystopia symphony. The studio is incredibly good for being a studio lovebites song. Asamis vocals send chivers down my spine it's so good. Unfortunately I'm not sure if well ever see it live. Haruna (drummer) said she really want to perform the rest of the songs from the glory, glory to the world ep live but that was before miho left. If that song ever gets played live I'm sure the world will know. I also prefer their live over studio material. Songs like winds of transylvania were mind blowing live and so much better then studio

[@billedwards3202]

They did play Dystopia Symphony live instead of Spellbound, I think, on the last show of the 2021 Japan dates

[@heavymetalisthelaw1227]

@@billedwards3202 no they didnt play dystopia symphony. I have the heavy metal never dies 2021 bluray and yes spellbound is on there but no dystopia symphony. They also played winds of transylvania and glory to the world live witch were part of the same ep dystopia symphony is on

[@paulread4886]

Yeah a theme while she hammers the backing chords with moving bass note within them. The genius of Miyako never ceases to amaze me. Try live Raise Some Hell , and see if you can pick the Thin Lizzy reference from the guitars : )

[@h1ro254]

COVID-19 has spread and it has had a great impact on the music industry! It's a restricted situation where we can't go freely, such as events and live performances! Under such circumstances, there were bad things and good things. One of them is live streaming! It was a very nice event to be able to see the same live performance even though people from all over the screen at the same time! It may become the standard for the coming era! Anyway, the wonderful thing about music is the same now and in the past! Let's enjoy music with everyone from now on!!︎

[@garykeeling2275]

Unfortunately, for Dystopia Symphony, you won't find a live or official video version, as neither exists. There are some user-made lyric videos for it, but it has not been performed live (to my chagrin, as it is one of their best songs), and the only official version is the audio version.

[@dregeye]

They did perform "Dystopia Symphony" at the last "Ride For Vengeance" tour show at Namba Hatch, but I've not seen/heard a recording of it, yet... They played it in place of "Spellbound", and also added "Bravehearted" as a second 'encore' !!!!! Gotta move to JAPAN!!!!!

[@paulread4886]

Btw, that was live in the studio, due to covid.

[@Vitericus1]

Love the purple on Midori's guitar, but I LOVE Miyako's Dean Hardtail. I've got one and a Dean Vengeance and they are so smooth to play. Don't know if they have smaller frets or what, but I can shred faster on those than any of my other guitars. Props to Miho for still sporting the Ride The Lightning tee while everyone else was a dressed up 🤘 I think you might be talking about my comment where I left about 5 or 6 different bands/tracks for you. Seriously, I was also getting burnt out on much of Western/U.S. metal; bands, to me (and I'm also and orchestral composer, so maybe that's why?) seem to be getting less creative and they all sound the same style. Then I came across Versailles, Maximum the Hormone and Yousei Teikoku about 10-15 years ago and now I almost listen to nothing but Japanese bands--I just keep finding more and most of them are always very creative and unique.

[@danw6048]

If you want to hear another song in the same studio, you should check out their cover of Helloween's Eagle Fly Free. All of them get their moments to shine in the song, especially Miho and Haruna which is nice to see. Shows what a loss Miho's departure really is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqCVYnt_gb-pj6c

[@gatograto]

Oh, absolutely yes. That is the only cover they did and the only chance to hear Miho and Haruna's solo, and Asami's powerful sustain at the ending is just magnificent.

You won't find a live version of Dystopia Symphony because there is none. The band only played it live once and no video was recorded of it. Since the band is currently on hiatus it will be quite a while until they get back to doing live concerts. I suggest reacting to the audio only version.

[@satomiwa]

Dystopia Symphony will be a tough one to play live. I mean, I'm sure they'll be able to pull it off if they decide to attempt it, but there's a whole lot going on in that song. You should give the studio version a listen, 'cos there might not ever be a live one, and it's worth it. Seems you're a Miho fan. Burden of Time's one of hers, so is The Hammer of Wrath, so is Thunder Vengeance, songs you seemed to really like a lot more than some others. Break The Wall is also one of hers, although you weren't quite as enthusiastic about that one compared to the rest.

[@rockdariff]

This one and swan song are prob my favorites atm

[@satomiwa]

Swan Song's Miyako in full Miyako mode. She's done a few of those, where you think she can't outdo herself and then she does. That's why everyone's recommending Dystopia Symphony, because it's probably top of that particular list.

[@poilagratté]

Why persist in finding tracks for which there is a video or live performance? There are album tracks that are very good that you will never discover if you don't just react to the album version. Unless someone makes a photo montage with the sound behind it. I'm thinking of "Warning shot" "mastermind 01" "no time to hesitate" "Paranoia" to name a few.

You obviously have not bought their studio albums and have really no clue what you are talking about, but I guess to each their own, I personally love their studio albums and I have bought each and every one of them. If you were to get in my car and listen trust me you'd have a change of heart. If listening o the mainstream crap that recording companies feed you for studio versions the I totally feel ya in what you are saying, GNR only had a couple of good songs and Lovebites has each and every song that is so much better and is considered masterpieces and soon to be called classics. Too many bands of the '80s were awful crap and ruined rock and metal for me so I stopped listening to that garbage and fell in love with the other side of the world
