Review Text
Japanese metal band Lovebites celebrate the glory of live music with their most heavy metal live experience so far! With HEAVY METAL NEVER DIES, Lovebites captures the essence of what it means to put on a metal show with this 2CD live album recorded at TOKYO DOME HALL within the limits of Japan's coronavirus restrictions. Venue capacity was limited and fans were not allowed to cheer, so Lovebites set out to show that even with such limits, HEAVY METAL NEVER DIES! HEAVY METAL NEVER DIES boasts a total of 19 tracks, including seven songs performed live for the very first time. Among these are 'SET THE WORLD ON FIRE' accompanied by pillars of fire, 'A FROZEN SERENADE' performed while snow falls, and 'SPELLBOUND' featuring Miyako playing keytar for the first time, as well as other exciting stage productions. It is also the final live recording from the band before bassist Miho left and the band went on hiatus.
