(REACTION) Lovebites - Soldier Stands Solitarily

[@obud3777]

Miyako's masterpiece!🤘

[@paulstevenage2286]

Miyako wrote the song with the live performance in mind and apologized to Haruna for the speed required from the drums!

[@gatograto]

and apology to Asami for extra high notes as well.

[@Donegal62]

There is a video of the band when they are listening to this song and they make comments using dry erase boards (you know what I mean). Haruna held up her board saying "too fast" and Miyako held up her board "sorry." Both were laughing about it of course. Hilarious!!

[@Donegal62]

@@gatograto yes 😆

[@gatograto]

@@Donegal62 ​ @Donegal62 Right, and Haruna and Asami made horns on their heads with their hands. That means "becoming devil" expressing anger in hilarious way.

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

Apologies to her bandmates but none to the audience cos we love it! Do you people know where I can find that video you speak of? Thank! / George

[@nontask78]

I wanna watch a live version of the song so badly, but moreso I wanna watch a fixed camera on Haruna only performing it.

[@Donegal62]

Haruna absolutely deserves more camera time. 👍

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

Would actually love to see close ups or full on drum or guitar playthroughs from this band! / George

[@njeroe6848]

You can watch it live on 24/09, they will stream their live concert from Tokyo, for more info check their website.

@@njeroe6848 In the stream Miyako apologized to Haruna for the speed and to Asami for the high notes, and Haruna and Asami gave her the horns, laughing!

[@HellMac]

Aggressivelly brutal and melodically sensitive at the same time. "Lovebiteness" at its maximum. Their best song ever...until the next one.

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

Yooooo "Lovebitesness" is my new favorite word! / George

How can you not get excited before listening to any Lovebites song for the first time. You think you've got it, you can't be amazed anymore, but then you are....again.

LOVEBITES - Soldier Stands Solitarily lyrics (Romanian): Dacă mâine nu vine niciodată A fost vreodată chiar aici? Nimeni nu stie Încerc să găsesc cheia de la uşă Sunt eu și nimeni altcineva Totul în mâna mea Lucrurile nu sunt la fel de ușor ca „bine” și „greșit” Ai nevoie de un singur lucru de care să fii mândru Soldat solitar Luptă până la capăt Nu sunt mulțumit Foc solitar Chiar și cu cicatrici Nu sunt mulțumit Dacă pot să iau totul înapoi Visarea cu ochii deschiși nu va schimba nimic, așa că fără valoare Viața este întotdeauna înainte și înapoi de a suferi și de a fi rănit Nu pot schimba asta De mult caut ceva Nu este suficient timp să-ți pese de ceea ce cred alții Soldat solitar Luptă până la capăt Nu sunt mulțumit Foc solitar Chiar și cu cicatrici Nu sunt mulțumit SOLOS: miyako / midori / ambele Lucrurile nu sunt la fel de ușor ca „bine” și „greșit” Ai nevoie de un singur lucru de care să fii mândru Soldat solitar Luptă până la capăt Nu sunt mulțumit Foc solitar Chiar și cu cicatrici Nu sunt mulțumit Soldat solitar Luptă până la capăt Nu sunt mulțumit Foc solitar Chiar și cu cicatrici Nu sunt mulțumit -----

[@philippecazeneuve4312]

Very good reaction. The album is really fantastic.🤘🐺

[@metalmark1214]

This song is my favorite on the new album. The essence of a speed metal song. Everything about the song is stellar. For a change of pace next do My Orion on this album.

[@alekhidell]

I’ve been so looking forward to seeing you guys react to this song. Until I heard it, I refused to place Lovebites songs in any order of preference. They are the only band I have ever heard that are physiologically incapable of mediocre. They do excellent, separated by such small fractions of a tenth of one hundredth of a percentage point that any attempt to rank songs is both futile and meaningless. After all there are only two answers to the question “which is your favourite Lovebites song. “Yes”, or “this one”. But SSS (the band even refer to it in letters only, they dare not speak its name) is the best thing they have ever done. It is everything that I knew was coming whilst waiting patiently for the bands return from hiatus, but all in one song…at the same time…only twice as fast. I await with trepidation for the Christmas release of your next Lovebites reaction. Hey, I’m British…sarcasm is compulsory. Great reaction…I’m always stoked when you pop up in my KZbin feed.

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

I'm gonna agree with most of what you said! This is actually probably the pinnacle of all Lovebites musical elements, very well rounded and balanced all the way through! We shall call it "Triple S" because "Triple X" is taken by Vin Diesel and Ice Cube! We will probably have some out before Christmas but we've reacted to them so much, we keep them more rare to give other bands a shot! / George

[@waterwalker9600]

My favorite off the new album and also HARUNA's most impressive performance ever IMO. 🥁⭐️🏆

[@TheCyberMantis]

Haruna really impressed me on "Dystopia". And again on "SSS".

[@waterwalker9600]

@TheCyberMantis 100% CM. HARUNA has such a unique groove. Her double kicks and dynamic cymbal and fill work are instantly recognizable. 🤘🐺🤘

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

Haruna is definitely pushing the upper limits of technicality on this one! / George

[@kristiansavov6528]

One of the greatest metal songs ever! Thanks for reaction! I wanna be a Dean-guitar in queen Miyako's hands... Wolfpack Forever! LOVEBITES Rules!!!

Thanks for checking this out. One of four Miyako compositions on the album, and they are all so different it's crazy.

As calm and collected Miyako seems to be when playing live, she really cooked up a thunderstorm composing this song :) My current LB favourite =)

[@kielanuar213]

Haruna really is a monster. Asami amazing high volume😯. Fami brutal bass, M+M can't be challenged (for me). I'm imagining a massive epic intense chaotic atmosphere if this song played live. Especially if the audience chanting along😮. Great comment guys👍🤘

Oh man, I sure hope they get active loud crowds, they deserve it! / George

[@carlosarchuleta62]

to me the best band in the world

[@ChadTheDragonLord]

Greatest power/thrash song ever!!! My god they play so incredibly fast and yet it doesn't sound like a million notes all jammed into a single measure the way Dragonforce's songs sound. This is melodic speed metal at its finest. Haruna's drums just relentlessly pound at break neck speed but are clearly separated so each hit is distinctly heard. And, on top of all that, Asami gives us her best metal vocals with some of the most powerful belts I've ever heard from her. And let's not forget how wonderful Fami's bass sounds in this too, with her own solo parts that sound amazing. I hope they let her do more of that going forward. This is why SSS is my most favorite Lovebites song to date.

[@rainerzufall42]

Still my favorite track on the new album! Fast and uncompromising!

[@Donegal62]

Judgement Day songs will be brutal live. I can't wait either. This band keeps getting better with every CD. The writing and performing is progressing at such a fast pace. Most bands get a sound or rhythm and stick with that. Not Lovebites! You guys really delve into specifics with your reactions, i.e. production and mixing. That is a great addition to reactions. I don't think any other reaction KZbinrs do that. Cheers guys!! 👍🤘 It also seems Lovebites is showcasing Fami's bass playing in the new songs. Like they are showing off their shiny new toy. 😂

[@joergschrader1611]

There will be an EPIC Mosh-Pit live!

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

Fami is indeed a very shiny new asset to the band! I can imagine the energy such a song would have live, I do hope they tour Europe with this album, maybe we get a chance to catch them! As for production/mixing, we are no professionals but we point out what stick out to us, and there's plenty to see here! Glad you enjoy it! / George

[@fab1901]

Thank you for your reaction to LOVEBITES. What a great analysis and feedback! Keep LOVEBITES in your future. 【The following is from an interview with LOVEBITES for a magazine project】 [Miyako(G Key and Piano Black hair)] As for "Soldier Stands Solitarily", I had a demo of it when I was working on the "Glory, Glory, to the World" EP (2021). It had a completely different shape than this one, except for the chorus. The chorus was punchy and had a good melody, so I wasn't satisfied with it as it was. This time, I restructured it and reincarnated it. In Miyako's mind, she thought the BPM was too fast, so Miyako said in her mind to Haruna(Dr), "I'm sorry," "If you lower this BPM, it will feel different!" she said. So in Miyako's mind, Miyako said, "Haruna can play at this BPM," and"If you don't play like this, it won't sound cool!" With that in mind, Miyako entered the bass line into the software.

[@thewindmillfullovcorpses]

Naaah she shouldn't be sorry! Your bandmates should push your limits and these ladies definitely push each other to do better all the time! Keep it coming! / George

[@fab1901]

Seems more heavy and aggressive than what I remember from Dragonforce, but I can see a resemblance

Don't forget Fami !!! Her work at the "base"-ment of the composition is inaudible as long as the audio engineers give way to her exorbitant contingent by emphasizing their contribution in their audio-mixing. . .
