  1. The previous Lovebites song you reacted to was "Nameless Warrior" and that video was from the same concert as this. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the mix since the lead singer, Asami, sang in a lower register as that track dictated. It also demonstrated her broad and dynamic mid-to-high range.

  2. Now onto the 3rd release from this concert, Judgement Day!!! I am loving Hammer of Wrath more and more. I got the Blu Ray of the concert and the whole concert is awesome.

    The song Judgement Day shows off the Bass as well and the guitar solos are awesome!!! Then there is Haruna on Drums, slow is not in her nature!!! Finally, Asami's vocals are even better in this song and overall in the concert, her English is even better as she did work on it in their time off.

    Long Live Lovebites!!!

  3. Hi there, great reaction! In my opinion, the lyrics are related to the book 'Malleus Maleficarum,' or in English, 'The Hammer of Witches,' written by Heinrich Kramer and Jakob Sprenger in 1486. This book became an official instruction guide for punishing witches during the late Middle Ages in Europe. (There is a comprehensive Wikipedia article about it.) In short, if someone was found guilty of being a witch, they were allowed to choose the method of their execution, either drowning or burning.

  4. This song is amazing, and this live is the best version of it, IMO. This is the highest level of thrash, and being that thrash is my first metal love, this is one of the best ever. For reference, I'm 63 and have been a metalhead for over 50 years.

    The best guitar solo run by Lovebites IMO is "Judgement Day".

    Love your honesty without worrying about your fanbase.
