Ijime, Dame, Zettai (live at Sonisphere 2014). This was where d legend began.

To answer your question... Babymetal was built around Suzuka Nakamoto (Su-Metal). Her producer is Key Kobayashi (Kobametal), who recruited everybody, when he was assigned by her management company to work with her. Su was 11 at the time.

They had already been performing for an hour to a hour and a half at this point, can you tell? Su is 17 and Yui and Moa are 15. Not bad for High School students, Huh? The crowd is 22K. The reason you hear Dragon Force is because they wrote the guitar riffs. They have been performing since they were about 6 yo. Their World Tour in 2019 was pretty much entirely sold-out capped by a sold-out LA Forum. The man responsible for Babymetal is Key Kobayashi (Kobametal) a producer at Amuse talent agency. He realized that Su's voice was strong enough to cut through Metal guitars and drums. Moa and Yui are friends with Su and were chosen too do the "Dance and Scream" (their words) in support of Su. This is the 10th anniversary of the band, Su is 22 and Moa is 20 (21 in July), Yui left the band for health reasons. If you want to see them early checkout "Babymetal Doki Doki Morning Rehearsal HD". There is a danger of cuteness overload! Something newer checkout "Pa Pa Ya", it about salad. Everyone BE SAFE sheltering in California.

You said "this has some dragonforce feel on it" and yes, this song was co-written by one of the Dragonforce members

...That moment when you realize that three girls in cute school school uniforms are more metal than we will ever be..... You need to see the live performance of Headbanger. They will rip your head off in that one. Also if you want to check out an official video of theirs you need to see Megitsune .. it’s a great video. Good stuff !!

Welcome to the BABYMETAL galaxy G&T - also good to see Bruka Bruka doing the Fox God's work and getting more reactors interested. You have a lot more to see yet, 3 albums and about 50 songs and nearly every one of them different to all the others.

This was fun! I love this format. Please do more Babymetal reactions like this.

Left dude teary eyed. Cant blame him. Watched this vid hundreds of times by now and without fail I always end up getting teary eyed it's amazing

Bruka Bruka is already a Babymetal evangelist.

Great reaction, welcome to Babymetal! The live show this video is from was in January 2015, Suzuka was 17 then, Yui and Moa were 15. The Dragonforce guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman wrote the guitar parts and contributed to the studio recording of the song. The backing band behind the girls is Kami Band, not Konami. _Kami_ means god/spirit in Japanese. Kobametal (Key Kobayashi) is the guy who brought this great musical act into life. My suggestions for you next Babymetal reactions: _Headbanger_ (Live 'Legend 1997' 2013): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h6ujgsR-x7Sqp6s.html _Ijime Dame Zettai_ (Live at Sonisphere Festival 2014): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNVdksaTy8rWiXk.html _PA PA YA!!_ (MV with live footage from Yokohama show 2019): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbVnjJt_2NTPgps.html _Da Da Dance_ (MV with live footage from LA & Osaka shows 2019): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p7N7n82QluDGiZc.html

That was entertaining. BABYMETAL is awesome! Regarding the mixture of Metal with J-Pop, this song is pretty tame, though. You'll find much more experimental songs regarding the genre blending. And although I'm a metalhead myself, that makes it even better. The addition of catchy tunes, smiles, dancing and general positivity elevates the Metal music to something much bigger than I would have thought possible. I have never enjoyed music that much before. There's a great variety throughout their catalogue, but the song that defines them best (in my opinion) is "Megitsune". Please check it out if you are interested: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mbFjgbCLpruvd6s.html

Love your reaction.. The band is called Kami Band. In this concert the Kamis were Mikio (R. I. P) and Takayoshi Ohmura on guitars, Boh on bass and HIDEKI Aoyama on drum. Babymetal was the idea of Koba, a long time fan of Metal and the idea evolved around Queen Su, the main vocalist.

This song was also co-written with the guitarists from DragonForce

For me this song reminds me of the ending of Bill & Teds Bogus Journey where their song brought everyone around the world together. When babymetal goes into the Whoa... part and everyone sings together it makes it feel like at that moment there is no war, no hate, no violence, just the love of music that is bringing people together.

I'm 56 yo and saw Babymetal live in Japan at the Tokyo dome over 2 nights back in 2016 , fucking unbelievable live performance . I have seen some top Bands and these girls and kami band rank at the top for live performance

I love pretty much all of Babymetal's stuff, but I have to say "Road of Resistance" is my favorite, especially this video. The performance and audience interaction is stunning. Gives you chills. It's rather heartbreaking that Yui left the band due to health reasons. I miss seeing all 3 of them together.

I believe someone already mentioned the producer Kobametal started this idea of Babymetal. Kobametal first noticed Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto) in 2008 when she was 10 and he realized she has the potential to be a great metal vocal. Babymetal was formed in 2010 as a school club in the J-pop school Sakura Gakuin (Which was founded by the entertainment company Kobametal worked for). It was like a school club in an US high school. Su was the designated lead singer, Moa and Yui auditioned into this club. The club was formed with a purpose of making more girls feel easier to get into metal music. The performance of the Babymetal club attracted more and more people, after Su-metal graduated from Sakura Gakuin, Babymetal was separated from the J-pop school as a professional group.

Welcome to the crazy world of Babymetal. There is nothing like them. Legend has it that Su was born with a microphone in her hand and instead of crying, she sang. I think that is exaggeration, but she has such confidence and presence on the stage. And she is so intense. Check out Rondo of Nightmare or Headbanger next.

Welcome to the Fox Hole, friend :D The guitarist Bruka mentioned who passed away was Mikio Fujioka. He died after falling from an observatory where he was stargazing in 2018. Many fans believe the song "Starlight" is a tribute to both him and Yui, who left the band shortly before the song was released. As for recommendations, the one I just mentioned ("Starlight") for a more melancholy feel, the oft-recommended "Rondo of Nightmare (With Mischief of the Metal Gods intro)" for a Su-metal solo, and one of my faves "PA PA YA!". I also recommend "BxMxC" and "BBAB" for some of their more adventurous tunes. Honestly though, just about every song they've ever done is worth reacting to.

"It has some dragon force sound to it' It`s because 2 dragon force guitarists were asked to make this song with Babymetal :D The band is called Kami-Band which means 'band of gods', and sadly Mikio Fujioka passed away in 2018, he was called Ko-Kami 'small god'. Also they made a new genre, they call it kawai-metal which stands for 'sweet/cute metal'

Great dual reaction. Thanks, guys! Good job Bruka Bruka showing G&T the way to the Fox Hole... and welcome G&T to BABYMETAL universe. One thing you need to know is that BABYMETAL likes to mix music genres. Did you say rap?? Here: PA PA YA! (Official MV): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbVnjJt_2NTPgps.html iine (Official MV): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p7yUdaWA1bnTfmg.html BxMxC (fancam, remastered audio): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNB-e6SLpqe1pZs.html Have fun!

I was lucky to go to 2 of their shows on the same weekend. Saturday and Sunday, in Japan. The track list was 100% different on both nights and the crowd was more than double of the one you saw in the video (50k people, sold out). It was the best time I've ever had at a concert. If you can catch them live, go. Bring a bottle of water and a small towel with you. Its like a 2 hour Zumba cardio class, except its metal music and the entire floor is a mosh pit.

In London last february the audience age was from 5 to more than 60. Small girls, an old grampa with the chest full of medals, cosplayers, metalheads... It was fantastic.

Megitsune mv Live rondo of nightmare, with the mischiefs of god intro. Live Headbanger Live BABYMETAL Death.

I feel like a lot of older metal heads like them to an extent. Even more so for those with daughters and nieces and stuff. Even if you do not like them should at least respect the fact that they are drawing people to metal who may otherwise never give it a chance.

Thanks for the reaction! For Babymetal always go with their live performances! Their studio stuff is awesome, too, and their live stuff is even better! For your next Babymetal reaction I’d suggest Headbanger! Live at Budokan Black Night, or Megitsune, Ijime Dame Zetaii.

awesome❤️😆

The age range of their fans is so diverse they at times have had separate shows for different age groups (Kids+Seniors / Adults)

Sycnopation , inne , megitsune , sis anger , tales of the destinies . Could keep goin for hours .

When I saw them this year the age range wasn't 20 to 60, it was about 7 to 70.

If you enjoyed this musically, I would strongly recommend listening to Sokoninaru - Tenohira De Odoru. It is an absolute banger with groove, and amazing vocals.

Great review guys. Road of Resistance was the first Babymetal video I ever saw and I’ve been a fan since. The person wo organizes the show is Kobametal. But, the whole thing started when he asked those three girls, who knew nothing about heavy metal at the time, to re-invent heavy metal.

Don't feel bad, this video gives me those goosebumps every time! Like, I just watched a different reaction to it about an hour ago and I still got goosebumps this time!

best reaction🎵 baby metal amazing❗ don't cry💦😁

They are polite, humble girls and they won't kick your ass. They just stick their hands in your ears and eyes and grab your brain and heart and shake it😉 From Japan🌏🌍🌎🦊 (deepl Translation)

God I wish the good ole' days of BabyMetal were back.

I'm happy you're here, but watch out for that FoxHole...it's deep.

I grow up with Black Sabbath. An Iron Maiden. Metallica. An BabyMetal is next. All bands have their up and down. Went to their concert twice already.

They started as a Metal klub at an Idol School back in 2009 or 2010 their Producer Koba Metal formed the Group around Su's powerful voice and stage presence they went independent in 2012ish. they got the Kami Band in 2014 which have now become a staple

The Band is the KAMI Band not Kanami

"The Kanami Band" XD Right answer is Kami Band. Kami = god Because they're god tier Because they're the band of the Fox god

absolutely amazing and wonderful Love Babymetal 🇯🇵❤️🥺

Their success is mostly blending jpop and metal creating a new genre called cute metal. IMO the underlying, almost subconscious part is presenting the girls as performers and not sex objects like a lot of videos produced today.

They are actually 21 and 23 now

Wonderful Yellow-Blue outfit! Also your headphone is "Ukraine colored". Bravo!

from Japan. Thankyou Thankyou very much！ I’m veryvery Happy .It’s BABYMETAL TIME！

when asked about seeing Babymetal for the first time, Rob Zombie said: "I saw them the other day for the first time. I mean, I'd seen videos and stuff, but I saw them live for the first time the other day, and I just loved it; it was like nothing I had ever seen before. I mean, it was just like… Leave it to the Japanese to find a way to make fucking death metal cute. But it was awesome. And the crowd… The crowd was going fucking apeshit. The amount of crowdsurfing and stage diving and just complete mayhem, which made it even funnier, 'cause it's three cute little girls doing fucking karate on stage and shit, and these guys [that are backing them] are dressed like ghosts, all in white. It's the most bizarre fucking thing. It's totally worth watching; it's so good."

Road of Resistance wasn't 7 years ago, but 5 years ago. Suzuka (main voice) is in my age (right now 23, she is from December so she is 22). So she was 17-18 when they made song. Just tip from fan

The genius that created Babymetal is Koba-Metal. They are the best band in the world. 🙂❤️🤘🦊

baby metal HEADBANGER!!!!, 1997 live .you will know how to headbang with this band

This concert was on a Saturday night. The Monday after, her HS teacher asked Moa to talk in front of the class about her love for fried chicken. And she killed it.

they wrote this song with Herman Li from dragonforce. and it's KAMI band.. not kanami

Thank you Bruka!

Its the Kami band not the Kanami band. Maybe you're getting it mixed up with Kanami , the guitarist from Band-Maid . :)

Baby Metal watch the 2016 Download Festival it was the first time they played England they were supposed to play on one of the smaller stages they had one album out they had a band cancel at the last minute so they moved Baby Metal to the main stage it's the song KARATE it's the opening song they had never played in front of a crowd that big and we'll the rest is HISTORY

Rumour has it that they started as a school project gone wild. They were in a class they called Baby Metal.

The fast way to tell the history of BABYMETAL is this I hope! They where part of school concept jpop group where all members toke classes together and sub units like an extra class! There is the star of BM. The success of BM was so big then producers decided to take one step higher and the rest are history! They're being around the scene for almost 10 years now as you can see they give all in every song so if you let me recommend other great song please react to RONDO OF NIGHTMARE WITH MISCHIEF OF GOD INTRO live at Budokan or AKATSUKI live at BUDOKAN Kitsune up! 🤘🦊🎸✨

What fun! More please!

I had the pleasure of seeing these girls last September in Saint Paul Minnesota.

Bruka Bruka is a proud boy haha he is literally in tears

Well done, gentlemen! 🦊🤘

the guys from dragonforce actually help write this song

Great fun reactions guys, great double up format as well, more Babymetal 🦊 🌈 👌 doesn't matter the track, as long as it's a live performance 👌

Only the Fox God know

Yes!!!!!

The only time ive ever seen a band and artist command a crowd like that is maybe Freddie Mercury at Wembley

This is for sure, 100%, one of the best BabyMetal reactions I've ever seen!!!! AWESOME!!!

Great reaction guys. Look at Su metal's face. 15 years old and already decided she'll settle for nothing less than world domination.

All Hail our Imperious Metal Queen Suzaka!!

Loved it you guys reaction was so epic lol 😆 this group is 🔥 for Shure they have set the bar this would be a epic show to see for sure

Her voice. Just when you think she hits it. She goes farther.

Bruka Bruka hookin you up!

The "Creator" is named KOBA-Metal........that's ALL i know.....Well one other thing, Babymetal was built around Su-metal, i believe BY "Koba-Metal", as SU has been part of a couple groups in Japan when she was younger (Su was 12 when BabyMetal started, she is 22 now), so Koba Metal came up with "Kawaii metal" or "Cute Metal"....

those early years of Babymetal.. never too late bros...

Luckely this was not the biggest crowd 😆 I believe it was in Tokyo Dome they had 2 concerts sold out... That means 55k people were present each day 😐

Welcome to the foxhole. Thank you for the BABYMETAL React video. I highly recommend BxMxC (meaning, BABYMETAL Cipher) for your next one. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. With much love from Japan.

Subscribed! Please more collab react to BABYMETAL with Bruka Bruka-san. Thank you! 🙏🤟

welcome to babymetal world.. the foxhole is deep 😁🤙😎

Awesome reaction 👍👍👍👍👍🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

The longish version of how they got together. When Su was 10 she signed up to Amuse, a talent agency. Amuse put a group together called Karen Girls, who did the theme songs for an anime "Zettai Karen Children", they had a number 1 hit with a song called "Over The Future" . After the anime finished the group stopped, but Amuse wanted to keep the talent, so started an Idol group called "Sakura Gakuin", so they could keep the talent and add to the roster. Moa and Yui did an audition for Sakura Gakuin doing the song "Over The Future" together, as they were friends that had met in dance competitions, also Yui was a big fan of Su's from the Karen Girls and the song Over the Future had special meaning to her. And they were invited to join Sakura Gakuin. Amuse with Sakura Gakuin, used to have a few managers, who they encouraged to do side projects/sub-units with the group. One of those managers was a former metal guitarist called Key Kobayashi/KobaMetal, who had heard Su sing and wanted to do some type of sub-unit of Sakura Gakuin with her, and came up with the idea of fusing metal and idol music together, and wanted 2 girls that would look like angels around Su. So they needed to be smaller than Su. With Su not being that tall, it could have proved hard, but Moa and Yui fit that bill, so he asked all 3 of them, them, and they liked the idea, and Babymetal was born.

Welcome in the Foxhole......now U are: One of us......one of us.......one of us...... ;) I watched this Vid so many times but still got goosebumps and tears of joy........... Please try the official Karate Vid from them......you will love it!
