Forget Babymetal, this is the real thing! Kevin at kevymetal blog put this at his No. 2 album for 2017. Released late on last year it seems to have passed most by, but I don't doubt these girls have the potential to be huge ..and not just in Japan. Fantastic riffing, shredding, a powerhouse drummer and an angelic vocalist who can speak English ..and great songs! If you know the brilliant Jap metal all-girl bands Band Maid and Mary's Blood then this is the next level..
"..I was ready to dismiss the quintet as another hyped-up girly J-metal band, but both the EP and the album they released this year were jaw-dropping. There’s nothing cutesy about Lovebites: their music has balls. ‘Awakening From Abyss’ is chock-full of high octane riffs, mad lead guitars and excellent heavy metal songwriting.."
