I already saw them 4 times on this EU tour and still 1 more in London 1st of July! Best band I've seen live in my life.🐺🤘LOVEBITES🤘🐺

You're so lucky!

@@MrsRealistic I wanted to write the same, you were quicker... 😁 👍

[@fantus01]

I saw then in London, too, but the first smaller concert in june

[@oliphant2848]

This was in Tokyo, the first song of the first comeback concert with new bassist Fami, after two years of absence from the stage. No one was pregnant here. Miyako, the dark-haired guitarist and pianist, was four months pregnant in one of the last concerts two years before that was also recorded; you saw Set The World On Fire from that show. I just was on a Lovebites concert at more or less the other end of Germany from me, and the atmosphere was great, with a very loud and active audience that partly sang the lyrics. (The band has remarked how loud we were, LOL.) Met the ladies briefly and had a selfie taken with them. Got Covid somewhere during the trip and am now laid up at home. 'Twas worth it.

[@MrsRealistic]

How cool that you got to meet them! Rest up and feel better soon!

[@GrayFox14]

Drummer Haruna was not pregnant. 🤗 There was a pregnant Miyako (brunette, guitar) during the LOVEBITES Tour in Japan, which took place in March-April 2021. This concert took place in March 2023, in Tokyo. LOVEBITES returned to the stage after a two-year break, which was due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the departure of the founder and leader of the band Miho (bass), the birth of Miyako's baby (in 2021) and the birth of Asami's baby (in 2022, lead vocals) 'The Hammer of Wrath' - thrash metal.

[@MrsRealistic]

Thanks! I mixed up the two 😂

[@tonym480]

Got to see them in London on 14th June and will be at the penultimate concert of the European leg of their tour back in London on 1st July. Before seeing them live, I knew they were petite, but not just how small they all are, and very beautiful ! Amazing energy on stage, and we got to see the sound check before the show as well, an unexpected bonus. Lovebites are one of my all time favourite bands. 🐺

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 album: Awakening From Abyss 10/25/2017

I was in Paris show, incredible show. Miyako was caufing and tired but she played perfection as always. Asami was nuts. Very crazy concert. I still had star in my eyes. I was in front row and Asami gove me a check. LOVEBITES was on fire 🔥🔥 on the bassement of the small venue ( 500 peoples) no air conditionned. It was hot as hell. But a great show. I ❤them 🇯🇵🥁🎹🎸🎙️🇨🇵❤️‍🔥💪

[@MrsRealistic]

What a blast it must have been!

[@TheEricBooth]

I hope this is taken as intended. I was in high school when thrash and speed metal came into its heyday and not in my wildest dreams back then would I ever have seen all female thrash band. During high school I couldn't name one girl in school who listened to let alone wanted to play this kind of music. Now there's more killer all female metal than there are male bands. Not to mention how many have female lead singers. Hmmm, I just had a realization. Why were all these guys trying to hit all those crazy high notes back in the day when they could have just gotten a woman to do it for them? Ego is why.

[@MrsRealistic]

I loved this kind of music in high school! All my female friends and I were pretty much "metal heads" but I was the black sheep who also listened to Rap LOL!

[@chriso6719]

Opening song at the 2023 Knockin' At Heaven's Gate concerts. Fami's live debut on bass. Asami yells "We Are Back" to start. First performance in about 2 years , due to lockdown and the search for a new bassist. Haruna IS 4'9", they are all smaller in stature. Asami 4'10", Midori(body builder lady) 4'11", Miyako and Fami 5'2". Original bassist Miho 5'1". Song is an old one, from the 2017 first album, Awakening From Abyss. It as written by Miho, Mao co wrote the music with her. 2nd track on the record , after the instrumental intro piece "Awakening" which has been played as the intro in concerts past. "Awakening" was written by Miyako, then known as Mi-Ya.

[@jaedo6180]

I describe it as proper metal goddess attire!👌 "Stand and Deliver" next. I only see one song in the Band Maid playlist. This needs to be fixed asap! "Don't You Tell Me" official live, please.🤘

Check ✔️ 😁

[@Pascal-the-Rascal]

Legend has it that Fami's smile powered the entire venue, lights, amps, everything. And the rare occasions when she's not smiling, the dynamo behind the kit, Haruna, takes over. Thrash metal through and through this is. Hey Yoda, watch out for the seagulls! Gold star for you if you get that reference.

Welcome back to Lovebites ! It was Miyako (lead guitarist at stage left) who was 4-5 months pregnant at a concert back in 2021. Haruna (drummer) is not pregnant here. BTW, Lovebites will be performing the US leg of their World Tour 2024 on : (1) September 6, at ProgPower XXIII, Atlanta, Georgia (sold out) (2) September 8, at The Echo Lounge & Music Hall, Dallas, Texas (3) September 10, at Echoplex, Los Angeles, California (4) September 12, at Café Du Nord, San Francisco, California (2), (3), (4) - tickets went on sale from June 3. Even more shows might be added later, so watch this space. They're currently touring Europe and there're lots of fan cams of the shows there on YT

[@ericdarlington2332]

Miyako the dark haired seemingly bored guitarist is actually quite funny and endearing off stage many people comment about her on stage personna it is probably a mixture of two things firstly she is a classically trained pianist since childhood and you really do not see many classical musicians jumping around showing off on stage lol secondly it makes the perfect balance to Midori's more showman like and aggressive stage style this I have just watched a bunch of fan cams from the current LOVEBITES world tour and Miyako has been a lot more engaging and active with the crowds on stage in all the shows i have seen then she has been in the past
