JAKARTA - Lovebites, a female heavy metal band from Tokyo, Japan, will release a new EP (mini album) titled Glory, Glory, To The World on March 10, 2021 through JPU Records. The EP was recorded under the darkness of the COVID-19 pandemic and will contain four exclusive songs.
The songs will not be featured or re-recorded for future albums, as will the 2018 EP Battle Against Damnation.
"On the one hand, working on this album during the spread of the coronavirus has been mentally draining. On the other hand, the music created in this darkness manages to become full of feelings of safety and light," Lovebites commented while working on this EP.
"This work is full of positive power unlike anything in the history of Lovebites," they continued as quoted by Blabbermouth, Tuesday, December 29.
Glory, Glory, To The World is the follow-up to the Electric Pentagram album which received critical acclaim. This album debuted at No. 9 on the Japanese Oricon Albums chart.
In addition, EP Glory, Glory, To The World also followed the news that the Lovebites concert tickets for their national tour next year had sold out.
Meanwhile, the new song Winds Of Transylvania will be the theme song for the anime Vladlove from visionary directors Mamoru Oshii and Junji Nishimura (Ghost In The Shell, Urusei Yatsura).
