Power metal heroines LOVEBITES have announced that their new full-length album, CLOCKWORK IMMORTALITY will be released across Europe. The news also came with the release of the music video for Rising.

Ahead of CLOCKWORK IMMORTALITY’s physical release, Rising is available as an instant gratification track on iTunes. The music video sees asami (vocals), miho (leader and bass), haruna (drums), midori (guitar) and miyako (guitar and keyboardist) performing on a cliff. The track was written by miyako, who was also the main composer for half of the tracks on the album.

Of the new song, miyako says, “One of the key sections to Rising is a piano and vocal part in the middle, I used this piece to pay my respects to Chopin. If you listen carefully you may be able to notice it. I believe this song will be one of LOVEBITES’ defining tracks.”

Leader and bassist miho said of the new album, “CLOCKWORK IMMORTALITY features the strongest, most powerful elements of our second EP BATTLE AGAINST DAMNATION with the speedy and melodic elements of our debut album AWAKENING FROM ABYSS. This is the evolution of LOVEBITES so far, I would be happy if you can feel the power overflowing from each song.”

The new album is mixed by Mikko Karmila, mastered by Mika Jussila and includes ten tracks.
