FULL BABYMETAL COVER IS OUT NOW! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNh1ZdSh3M6nfmQ.html

Dragonforce collaborated on that song.

This is the last song in a 90 minute set too, with this level, or higher, of energy throughout. And Su is still able to hold a tone while dancing. Su-Metal is fucking amazing.

You don't have to go to Japan, luckily for you they tour a LOT every year. They were on 20 dates last October in the US so they probably were near you at some point, including a big show at the LA Forum which was pro-shot. They were then on an European & UK tour in February. They were supposed to do an Asian tour and also a second leg of EU tour with a series of shows aswell as big metal festivals but obviously it all got cancelled. You can expect them to return soon to the US and I would definetly recommend you guys to go. That IS an experience. To answer a few of your questions : 1) The name BABYMETAL contrary to most first-timers belief does not originate from the fact that they were young (around 12 years old) when BABYMETAL started. Rather, it is actually a play-on-words with the Japanese language. "Heavy Metal" & "Baby Metal" sound and write almost exactly the same in Japanese (Hebi Metaru vs Bebi Metaru). In Japanese writing, the writing is so close to be the same that you would almost not tell the difference (it's just a small apostrophe sign that differentiates both terms). The second reason for using the name BABYMETAL is that they wanted to create a new way to enjoy metal, a new metal genre of positivity, inclusiveness and, ofcourse, cuteness (to go with the typically Japanese Kawaii culture). And invent a new genre they did, as they are regarded as the ones to have invented the metal sub-genre now referred to as "Kawaii Metal". 2) Guy on the left is right, BABYMETAL does have a very very big variety of sounds and genre mixing in their repertoire. You'll be hard pressed to find two songs that sound alike. The red thread is that it's always with a BABYMETAL twist which you'll soon get to get accustomed to I hope as you go along your discovery journey. This is indeed a power-metal song with the obvious elements of "Kawaii" that make it so unique and different. Herman Li and Sam Totman from Dragon Force have helped write the guitar arrangements for this song. They're some of the earliest supporters of BABYMETAL. 3) Guy on the left is right again, the main focus and the only "real" members of BABYMETAL are the three girls (more complicated than that now but more on that later). Though that doesn't mean the session musicians aren't loved and recognized by both the fans and the band itself. Most of the fans know and love most of the "regulars" who have done most of the shows with the girls over the years. The most represented and well-known musicians that back them up on tours are : Mikio Fujioka, Takayoshi Ohmura, Leda Cygnus & ISAO on the guitars - Aoyama Hideki & Yuya Maeta on the drums - BOH on his amazing 6-string Bass. They are all guys. A few additional informations you might be interested in : BABYMETAL didn't use to always have a backing band of live musicians. BABYMETAL was started in 2010 and they did not have much budget to work with. Up until the end of 2013 - apart from a few exceptions - the music was a backing track with paid actors miming instruments wearing skeleton costumes. Whenever you see those skeleton costumes, that probably means the video is from before 2014 and the musicians aren't live. Their immense talent & hardwork earned them enough success to be able to afford full-time session musicians every time they play live nowadays. It's not always the same musicians but there are regulars, as I said, whom the fanbase loves. And for future reference, they're lovingly called the "Kami Band" or simply the "Kamis". Kami roughly means "God" in Japanese. They're considered in the lore of BABYMETAL (of which there is a LOT) to be the Gods of their instruments, summoned by the Fox God to help BABYMETAL reunite the divided world through Metal music. The three girls are known as follow : - Suzuka "Su-Metal" Nakamoto : born on 20th of December 1997 - Yui "Yuimetal" Mizuno : born on 20th of June 1999 - Moa "Moametal" Kikuchi : born on 4th of July 1999 They are not related but the story of how they came together is quite touching nonetheless. That will be for another time as I'm obviously starting to make it a very long comment. I enjoyed this reaction a lot, I had been waiting on you to do BABYMETAL since your first introduction to Japanese music. Hope you enjoy your journey down the Fox Hole ;).

actually the guitarists from Dragonforce collaborated in this song. tha backing band is called "kamiband" (kami means god, that why they wear white) and no , they're not women, all men. they're not triplets, they're just friends, sadly one of the small dancers, Yui, left the group in 2018 due to an unknown ill. now they have 3 dancers replacing her in a rotative formation (i mean, the 3 of them are in the concerts but not performing in the same songs). also, one of the guitarists (he's not in that video btw) died for falling of an observation platform while stargazing, BABYMETAL released a tribute song to him called "Starlight" and it came out the same day Yui left the group. they were formed in 2012 as a subunit from Sakura Gakuin, a jpop group with a school concept, they came up with the name BABYMETAL because they wanted to create a new genre which mixes cuteness and metal, they debuted being 12-13 y/o, in this video they were around 14-15 and now they're above their 20s.

Some answers for you. They're called BABYMETAL because it's a pun in Japanaese. If you want to write out "heavy metal" in Japanese it looks like ヘービーメタル and if you want to write out BABYMETAL it looks like ベービーメタル. The producer says that the additional meaning is that they were trying to give birth to a new metal genre (therefore it's a "baby"). BABYMETAL started off as a subunit of a idol incubator program called Sakura Gakuin in 2010. They were performing in small theaters to a hundred people like parents and whatnot. They came out with a few singles but didn't really get worldwide notice until GIMME CHOCOLATE blew up on KZfaq. BABYMETAL was project that eventually became much much bigger than originally expected, and they eventually hired the best musicians Japan had to offer. These are the guys in white robes which became known as the Kami Band. So the core of BABYMETAL has always been the girls, with the musicianship catcing up to the popularity of the girls and the concept. Expect to see a lot of fans chime in since BABYMETAL has a huge and dedicated fan base. There are a lot of reasons why aside from just being talented and making good music. Through KZfaq videos, you can follow their humble poppy beginings to become a viral sensation and featured on Colbert, to then making their legit international live debut (kinda) on the main stage at Sonisphere 2014, gaining acceptance among the metal community, and to then selling out the largest venues in the world like Wembley and Tokyo Dome. It's all there for you to watch and you kinda feel like a proud parent or older sibling seeing them progress. The songs that are most popular for reactions are Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!! (Legend of 1997 Makuhari Messe), Ijimi, Dame Zettai (Sonisphere 2014), Rondo of Nightmare (Budokan with Mischiefs of God intro), and Megitsune (you can watch the official MV there for a nice change). Cheers!

I remember Rob Zombie fighting with everyone on instagram because he uploaded a picture with them and people started critisizing the girls.

Babymetal genre is kawaii metal (cute/adorable metal). They've incorporated a variety of metal subgenres (such as melodic death metal, power metal, symphonic metal, industrial metal, progressive metal, thrash metal, etc.) and have mixed them with elements of J-pop music. And The backing band called Kami Band means God Band (btw they're all men). They are one of best session musicians in japan. The Kami band has been a regular thing, being used at every live show. For next songs. I suggest u, Headbanger legend 1997 live!

When they started they were 12, 10, and 10 and a subsection of a jpop idol group. Needless to say it worked. The two remaining members are 22 and 20 now, and better than ever. Hard to go wrong with any song you go to from them

If you want to see the band showcased, check out Rondo of Nightmare with the Mischiefs of God intro.

Such a great band. Don't understand the hate they get since they have such a unique sound going for them.

Guitar parts cowritten by and played on the studio recording by Herman Li and Sam Totman of Dragon Force. So you were correct!! The Kami Band playing here were all Male Musicians. The girls ages were, Su-metal 17, Yuimetal and Moametal 15. Current ages are 22, 21 and 20 respectively. Moa will also turn 21 in 3 days on July 4th. Highest charting Album of all time for an Asian Group on Billboards "Hot 200" with their 3rd album "Metal Galaxy" at #13. Also First Asian Group or Band to hit #1 on Billboards "Top Rock Album" with "Metal Galaxy!" Nov. 23, 2019. Thanks for the reaction and... Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill-the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill-you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the FOX hole goes.

Babymetal is fucking great! saw them live in february in vienna, before the corona outbreak . I really can recommend the songs "Karate", "Megitsune", "Pa Pa Ya" , "Da Da Dance", "Shanti Shanti Shanti" or "Kagerou". Like MTH they have many styles of music which they integrate in their music (especially the metal galaxy album). Also Hermann Lee of Dragonforce is featured on the song "road to resistance" as you can hear haha. Dig your stuff (reactions and Dicodec)! If you want to check out some japanese punk hardcore i still recommend, even they're not active anymore, the band FC Five. Love my dudes went on tour in japan with them in 2008 as a roadie. "My Strife", "Jaded Hope", "Generations", "Enter/Evolve" or "Watching the sky" are good picks.

Good reaction guys If no one has mentioned it so far - the crowd is 22,000 people. The songs of baby metal are unique and each is different from the others, which makes them even more supreme :) I just don't know which next song to recommend - they're all on top. Try Headbanger live performance - makuhare messe for start :))))

there will be a lot of other Babymetal fans filling you in with all the backstory .. but be sure that every of their songs are completely different in genre .. so it doesn't get boring and everyone can find something he loves

Another power metal song from them: "Arkadia". Different song : "Catch me if you can", basically a song about hide and seek with a demon. Weird one: "Oh Majinai" (with Joakim from Sabaton).

"That's racist" I'm dead haha Death, Headbanger and Rondo of Nightmare (with the gods of mischief intro) next guys, trust me, you won't regret them! ANd live, keep that in mind!

Yes, you're damn right, they changes genres and subgenres (of metal) A LOT. Babymetal is like the perfect kind of band to get a reaction to because of that, every time you hear their song, you'd be surprise like it was the first time you hear them again. Others might reccomend some of their best videos, but if you want to get why their songs are very unique, my number one reccomendation will be: 'BxMxC' (audio only or some fancam videos), they'll blow your mind. Oh and they collaborated with Herman Li and Sam Totman on this one, so yes, this one sounds very Dragonforce.

Your channel is about to be flooded lol. I will try to answer your questions as briefly as possible. Yes, Dragon Force's Herman Li was involved in writing (and I think also played one of the guitars on the studio track) this song. BABYMETAL originally consisted of three singers (Suzuka Nakamoto (aka Su-metal), Moa Kikuchi (aka Moametal), and Yui Mizuno (aka Yuimetal). All three were originally members of a school-based idol group called Sakura Gakuin. In 2010, a Sakura Gakuin producer named Key Kobayashi (who is a huge metal head) heard Suzuka singing and thought her voice would cut through metal music well. He added Moa and Yui (who are a year and half younger) as dancers and chant (known as kakegoe and ainote; you can hear this in their song Megistune for example) leaders to tie in the girl's idol J-pop background. Suzuka was 12, and Moa and Yui were 11 when they held their first performance as BABYMETAL that year. This new genre he created is referred to as Kawaii Metal; kawaii means cute in Japanese. The session musicians (known as the Kami Band; Kami means God in Japanese) were added several years later and have been performing with the group ever since. Another five members (known as the Kamis of the West) were added last year to help support BABYMETAL's much longer US and European tour. This performance was from their New Year Fox Festival concert at the Saitama Super Area in 2015; there were 20000 people there. The video of this song was actually cut short by about a minute and half, as the group yelled "We are BABYMETAL" longer than shown. All their songs sound different. I recommend Karate from 2016 Download Festival, Headbanger from the Legend 1997 concert, and BABYMETAL Death (from the same concert). I can't wait to see more!

They are so different from everyone else. Just looking through the comments, 30 people have 30 different song recommendations. Says a lot about BabyMetal! Bummed I only just heard of them this year...Good Reaction. I like the song Java and the song Syncopation. I also agree, live performances are by far the best (Official Videos for Karate and Megitsune are good however).

Great reaction - and welcome to the BABYMETAL galaxy. I am here late obviously and you already have all the background, origins, explanations of the name, details on who the girls are and who is in the Kami Band etc in the comments, so that doesn't leave me much to do ... which is nice. As you have already been told, every song is different (there are a couple here and there that are similar to one another but you will have to look hard to find them). They play virtually every metal genre but blend in countless other musical styles and genres, often when you least expect it. Some songs are hard and heavy, others lean more towards their pop roots and they have everything in between. They have over 40 songs plus a few early covers and I could recommend my favourites or popular songs etc, but I'd say go with anything and everything and more recommendations will follow ... the official videos are good but BABYMETAL are always at their best in live performances. Avoid compilations if there is a real live performance available.

All song of Babymetal is a new adventure and a new experience 🤘🏻

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🏴 🏴 🏴 "Stand up and shout, Shout!, Justice Forever!" - (Road of Resistance) - You guys seem to get it right away. There's nothing else quite like BABYMETAL. A lot of times it takes three songs or so before people are converted. : ) BABYMETAL could have had an easier, if more limited success, if they had decided to try and cruise on the novelty aspect of the group. Instead, they recruited some of the best musicians in Japan to back the girls up, as well as great songwriting and choreography. Of course their producer, Koba, was lucky to spot Suzuka Nakamoto (Su-metal) early in her career, and built the BABYMETAL project around her. She actually played this same venue, Saitama Super Arena (SSA) in 2008, when she was a member of the JPop trio Karen Girl's, back when she was 10 years old.

Well you were not wrong when you said that BABYMETAL is a genre, because they want to create a genre called BABYMETAL... They add so much different styles and genres of music and make it to become their own sound... And you were fu*king true when you said that they make metal music become dance-able...

you are now entering BABYMETAL Universe and enjoy your journey. they have 40+ songs in 3 albums and not ever once their song have the same sound.

This song is a massage straight to the heart. Great reaction! More Babymetal please!

Welcome to the foxhole!! A lot of people start their reactions to BABYMETAL songs with songs from the same era (2015-2016) as Road of Registance([Gimme Chocolate!] [Ijime, Dame, Zettai] [Megitsune] [iine] [karate]), but I would venture to recommend BxMxC [Live at Stockholm] here. BxMxC means BABYMETAL Cipher. This song is part of the album "Metal galaxy" which was released in 2019/10. This is a fancam for the live performance at METAL GALAXY WORLD TOUR (2020). Please enjoy the realism!!! (I translated this English with a translation tool, so I apologize if I converted it incorrectly.) --- キツネの穴にようこそ！！ BABYMETALの曲のリアクションは、Road of Registanceと同年代（2015-2016）の曲([Gimme Chocolate!] [Ijime, Dame, Zettai] [Megitsune] [iine] [karate])から始める人達が多いですが、ここはあえてBxMxC [Live at Stockholm]をお勧めします。 BxMxCの意味は、BABYMETAL Cipherです。 この曲は2019/10に発売になったアルバム「Metal galaxy」の中の一曲で、METAL GALAXY WORLD TOUR(2020)でのライブのファンカムです。 臨場感をお楽しみください。 ----

IMHO, THIS concert (Saitama Super Arena 2015) is Babymetal at their BEST. Sumetal (17), Moametal (15) and Yuimetal (15). Moa and Yui are still in Sakura Gakuin and about to graduate a couple of months later (and doing the best Road To Graduation event ever from Sakura Gakuin). This is for me the crowning of a awesome idea that started in 2010. Yes they did a lot more since then but they haven't topped this concert yet, not for me. I fell in love with Babymetal with "Catch Me If You Can". The first album is a completely chaotic mesh of Metal and it's brilliant... What they did/achieved in only 5 years (up to this concert) is enough for me to think they deserve it all.

BabyMetal IDZ live at sonisphere 2014 their breakthrough performance of epic proportions

"Are the band members female? Do they write their own songs? Let us know..." Dudes, you just opened the flood gates. I barely discovered BABYMETAL last year. But they have been rocking packed venues since like 2012! Most epic achievement was selling out 2 back to back nights at The Tokyo Dome. This group has gone on tour to UK, Europe, USA, Canada (I think Mexico?) and some Asian countries. But the super shows in Japan are just Legendary. REMEMBER: We're watching old performances from Japan, of 3 teen ladies + 1 band + Thousands of mortals gathered in a mass of humanity Headbanging, Circle Pitting, fist pumping, and shouting. (It still amazes me to witness that man) .BEFORE this dammed virus shut down the planet, BABYMETAL did a battery of shows across the US.2019 (in like under 3months), went back home to Japan to perform at sold out venues, then did a European/UK tour in 2020 (last show March.1 & first time in Russia). Don't worry fellas, The One will provide you the information about all things BABYMETAL. You will know the ladies names. You will know of The Great Kami Band (RIP Mikio). You will know...the Power of Music that is BABYMETAL. Enjoy your journey down the Fox Hole boys! 🤘🦊🎸🇯🇵. Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Grew up in the 80s and have seen a zillion shows over the years, all over the world. Babymetal was one of the most incredible live shows ever. There are the real deal. And yes their mosh pits are epic!

If you listen to Babymetal, every song is different. They like to explore musically.

Ive see them live. It was a 40°c day and they put on a crazy ass show in full costume. Absolutely must see if you ever get a chance.

Every Babymetal song is rooted in a different subgenre of metal...

Babymetal was built entirely around Suzuka Nakamoto.

Should check out Rondo of Nightmare live. Another great song by them. Emphasizes more on the band and lead singer

BIG SHOUT OUT TO OUR PATREON SUPPORTERS! DANO STEEL TxM

DragonForce were involved in the creation of this song. Babymetal are very varied and have moved away from cute metal to more metal-based fusion.

I discovered Babymetal by accident few days ago and it was the best accident for me this year :D You have to check Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!(Legend of 1997LIVE) , Death(Legend 1997 Live ) , Megitsune(LEGEND 1997 LIVE ) , Pa pa ya ( Official video ) . Live versions from Legend 1997 have the best crowd assistance so dont pick other versions ;p

I love to see metal heads discover Babymetal and appreciate the quality they are producing!

The band is Kami Band, the girls are basically BabyMetal. Depending on where they travel the band members can change. BabyMetal is in a genre of it's own called Kawaii-Metal ( cute metal )

Got another one :) ... they do that to you. Hell of a hook. I saw them in Tokyo, Saitama Super Arena when they opened for Guns n' Roses....RIP Fujioka Mikio: Ko-Kami

Contrary to how some bands are founded, Babymetal was not normal. The whole concept was from a pop idol producer that heard Su, the lead singer, and realized how loud she was for being young. He loved metal but in Japan the metal was stale. He then added the 2 other girls. They were formed in 2010. Wasnt until 2013 that the band you here was with them. You will be happy if you take this journey. They will not disappoint you. They sold out almost everywhere they went last year and at the beginning of this year till this virus crap started. Got to see them live to truly experience them.

I saw their show at Terminal 5 in NYC in the summer of 2019. That show was awesome. They had the melodic death metal band Avatar opening for them.

Always Great to see Musician's reactions to Babymetal! They're are once in a lifetime phenomenon I'm chuffed to have seen live. Subbed n Smashed the Bell! Cheers Mates!

Scrolling through my recommendations/suggestions, this pops up. HAD to rewatch it. Ground Zero! You guys have come a long way and have done so much for the Babymetal community.

No one ever talks about how cute the "see you" at the end is

1997 & 1999.... hhhhmmm... This is there year these girls were born!!! There first concert was in 2010. These girls were out before Band Maid... They world tour'd at age 14-15 with Rob Zombie , Judas Priest.... to name a few!!! These vids are 4-5 yrs old!!

This is a good reaction, you touched on many good things. Babymetal live is best Babymetal ! :-) Seriously, they have magic live performing abilities or something. If you take any album song, listen to it, you might: that's pretty good or maybe even: "WTF is this ?" But when you've seen it live, you will understand the song. The album songs are like movie soundtracks without the movie, a huge part is missing. Getting the audience involved is an import part too. Babymetal's name means: newborn genre of metal. And the name is actually like a pun, in Japanese when they pronounce heavy metal it's 'hebimetal' and 'bebimetal' sounds very much alike and the way it's written is also almost exactly the same. Objectively speaking: 'the little ones' Moametal and Yuimetal look the most alike, especially because of their hairstyle and length and how many of their moves and singing are in sync. The dancing and singing takes at least as much practice as playing a guitar, they most be so incredibly fit. And their long capacity most be huge. Su-metal is the center of Babymetal, but Moametal and Yuimetal have their own songs too as a duo. The girls don't usually write any songs, but Yuimetal and Moametal have a duo song they wrote on their tourbus when they were touring in Singapore. Babymetal started at age 11 and 12. This year is their 10th year of existance, so they've really been doing this all their teen lives and are now in their early twenties. Even at age 12, Suzuka already had almost 10 years of experience in the entertainment industry.

What you guys need to do is watch the unhelpful guide to BABYMETAL. (That's what its called I'm not saying it's unhelpful) it will explain everything to you its a great story and when you see how old they were when they started and how big the crowds they were facing at such a young age you will come away with genuine respect and admiration. SU' METAL is still only 22 or so and has been singing for this band for an incredible 10years. Anyway the guide explains everything its long but enjoyable and you will be able to better find the songs that you like because they cover many different styles.

They're playing at Tokyo Dome. Tokyo Dome seats 5,500 people. It was sold out in 4 hours. So they had to do a second show the following night. They call it Red Night an Black Night.

Babymetal are led by a god called - Fox God (or Kitsune-Sama) You can hear their answer sometimes "Only Fox God knows" when they were asked a question which shouldn't be answered at this time Producer - Key Kobayashi or Kobametal Main vocal - Suzuka Nakamoto or SU-Metal in band Vocal and dance 1 - Moa Kikuchi or Moametal Vocal and dance 2 - Yui Mizuno or Yuimetal. She left the band due to health issues 19th October 2018 Band behind called Kami-Band - gods of metal summoned by The Fox God to help Babymetal. (all men) At this show: Bohte Daisuke or BOH - bass Takayoshi Ohmura - guitarplayer (with pink guitar) Leda - guitarplayer (with black one) Aoyama Hideki - drums Also players: ISAO - guitar (playing sometimes when other guitarplayers have their own tour) Mikio Fujioka or Ko-Gami or Little God - guitarplayer. Passed away January 5th 2018 All songs should be reacted. But you could try a more gentle one after this - No Rain No rainbow [ Legend S - Baptism XX]

Hey guys! I had to come back to your first reaction to tell Alan's past self that he becomes a big BABYMETAL fan and even sheds some tears during a Su solo. It's been really fun watching you guys and your BABYMETAL journey. See You! 🤘🦊🤘

BabyMetal has been around for almost a decade Have three albums and have many accolades react to Doki Doki Morning their first song

And the band, the kami band or god band, are some of the most accomplished musicians in Japan. They all have other bands and projects, and there are a number of them who rotate frequently for tours. On the last tour in the states and Europe we were introduced to the kami of the west, made up of the musicians from Galactic Empire and the drummer from Shadow Of Intent. Check out Rondo of Nightmare with the mischief of the Metal gods intro to see how amazing the kami band are.

I know i saw it in the comments but Rondo of Nightmare with mischief of gods intro is great

These girls, Suzuka, Yui and Moa started when they were 10 or 11 as part of what they call idol groups that take talented kids and promote their careers. They belonged to a group called Sakura Gakuin . That was in 2010.

The band's name is a combination of "baby" (ベビー, bebī) and "heavy metal" (ヘビーメタル, hebī metaru); Heavy metal: ヘビメタ (romaji transcription: hebimetaru) to Babymetal: ベビメタ (romaji transcription: bebimetaru). The band defines its style as a new genre called "kawaii metal" and clarifies that it is "a mix of J-pop idol and heavy metal". The band was formed in 2010, with the original lineup of Nakamoto Suzuka aka Su Metal (Vocal and Dance) (DOB Dec 20, 1997), Kikuchi Moa aka Moa Metal (Scream and Dance) (DOB July 4, 1999), and Mizuno Yui aka "Yui Metal" (Scream and Dance) (DOB Jun 20, 1999), with the concept of creating a fusion of heavy metal and Japanese idol genres. Originally a sub-unit of the Japanese idol group Sakura Gakuin which also was formed at the same year, Babymetal became an independent act in 2013. The band is produced by Kobayashi Key aka "Kobametal" from the Amuse talent agency. Original concept of the band was to introduced the new generation of audience to metal music especially females. Kami Band was introduced in late 2012, slowly replacing their original mime band called Babybones and become full time band for all their performances by 2014. On October 19, 2018, Babymetal announced that Yui Metal had decided to leave the band due to poor health, following her absence from live performances since December 2017.

They've got songs that range through all sorts of metal and rock, but yes, DragonForce played the guitars on the studio version and helped write the song. Unsurprising most pick up on it immediately

In Japan at the Tokyo Dome attendance is about 20,000. Babymetal usually performs eight songs. The Kami-band consists of, usually the same studio musicians. Dive down the fox hole and their history is amazing.

Thanks! Nice Reaction!!! More BABYMETAL & MTH Please!!

suzuka nakamoto [su metal] yui mizuno [yui metal] and moa kikuchi [moa metal] were partners in an idol group. one of his teachers always had the idea of mixing idol music with metal. I speak with suzuka and they hired yui and moa, and to be more serious they hired the Kamiband, which is a well-known metal band in Japan.

The so-called death stare that BabyMetal's lead singer, Su-Metal, gets on her face as she parts the crowd is actually the burning gaze of Alexander the Great, which seems to peer into your very soul. Queen Su has a couple other things in common with the mighty Macedonian conqueror. First, there is her self-avowed desire to conquer the world, albeit in her case through music. Then there is the story about a much earlier performance at Saitama Super Arena in 2008. Back then Su was the youngest member of a pop/idol trio called Keren Girl's. Having never played such a large venue before, the two older girls were naturally a bit nervous about it. Su on the other hand was so confident that she decided to take a nap before the show, and slept so soundly that someone had to go wake her. The first time I read this story it actually gave me a chill because there is an eerily similar story told about Alexander before the Battle of Gaugamela. It was then that I realized what is so special about Su-Metal. She possesses that intangible something that is the spark of greatness. Also, whenever people react to both BabyMetal and Band Maid, the conversation will eventually get around to comparing the two. I love them both, but cannot compare them musically because they are two completely different entities. I can explain the difference between them though. Band Maid is simply the best rock band on the planet today. BavyMetal is something more, a state of mind, an unstoppable movement, and a force for good. It was BabyMetal that led me to Band Maid, and to Wagakki Band, and to Doll$Boxx, Sakura Gakuin, Sabaton, and the Hu Band.

They've called their genre of their own as 'Kawaii Metal'. Also if you're considered Band Maid as in the Kawaii Metal's genre, you can safely considering Babymetal as the PIONEER if this genre.

I've seen Babymetal 3 times in Japan and hands down, best live shows I've ever seen. They have different genres, but yeah, Dragonforce collabed with them on this song.

nice reaction！from japan.

Babymetal started off in an idol subunit called the heavy music club which was part of idol group Sakura Gakuin. That's where kawaii metal was born back in 2020. Please venture further down the fox hole! You will not be disappointed! We are! Babymetal!

I recommend any of the live BABYMETAL videos on the AMR channel on KZfaq they’re all incredible.

Super basic breakdown of Babymetal: it grew out of the jpop/idol music scene. There was a school themed teen idol pop group called Sakura Gakuin, and the different members would be part of different “after school clubs” which were effectively sub-groups within the larger Sakura Gakuin brand. Babymetal was by far the most popular of these sub groups, and became its own thing. The earliest days are a bit different from how the group is now, but currently it’s a group of semi-rotating top flight musicians forming the backing band, and the girls fronting it. Of the three you see here, one girl has left (health concerns) and has been replaced by a rotating cast of other backup dancer/singers who also came from the idol/pop scene. As for genre, this song was absolutely power metal, but across their three albums they have a variety of genres. Death, symphonic, thrash, nu metal, you name it. One of the main criticisms is that the band is not “naturally made”, as it was explicitly a producer created project. But on a certain level that’s just a consequence of the Japanese music industry. Even the comparatively more organically grown Band-Maid has its roots in this musical machine (tldr: Miku was a pop idol, and used her idol connections to sell the idea of the band maid concept to her production group, and found Kanami, who then found Akane, who knew MISA, because they all worked as session musicians within that same Japanese music industry). So personally, despite Babymetal being explicitly a crafted media production, I still enjoy them because the musicianship is excellent, and the main vocalist Su-metal is a powerful and dynamic singer and a professional performer (having been in the industry since she was like 10 or something)

Great! Sub'd for the BabyMetal ride!

to add to the wow factor, this was the encore after a 90 minute concert. If I'm not mistaken SU is 16 at the time of this concert, and YUI and MOA were 15.

i believe when they started the lead singer Su was 16 the 2 backup singer where 14, moa and yui

This song showed the world that BABYMETAL is not joke.

Please do rondo of nightmare with mischief of gods intro. That is also an epic piece of music.

Da Herman Li and sam topmen of dragon force played guitar for babymetal's road of resistance.

My favorite part of this is that Alan can’t even stop headbanging on the way to pausing 5:44

Really love your Maximum The Hormone reactions and also this Babymetal reaction. Keep up the good work guys

U must react Arkadia and Starlight ( this song sick cause the tuning is double drop c#)

Welcome to the Babymetal club. I think this a 2016 concert. They are now 21 years old. Massive talent and hard work. Kami band is awesome. Their performance continues to get better. New songs are great also. Rondo of Nightmare, Headbanger, Gimme Chocolate, Karate almost any of their songs. Dig deeper into them.

The production company did solo artists, girl idol groups and even actors... etc They have iconic groups like Perfume and ONE OK ROCK. Top artists like Fukuyama Masaharu, Satou Takeru... So this is when a producer from the company decide to form a girl idol metal group because he loves metal music. The girls were from the agency's idol project and the musicians were gathered to support them. The lead singer succeed on her singing and the group shed off the girl idol element to focused on the music part.

check out RONDO OF NIGHTMARE (with the mischief of god intro) mind blown of gods intro

Please...... Please reaction again BABYMETAL..... Karate MV official, it's my favorite song...

Watching this makes you get chills

I subbed because of the intro! That was awesome!

We want more BABYMETAL! 🦊

Next song "Oh! MAJINAI" is recommended. The latest weird song.

Just rewatching your babymetal reactions. When Alan looked at Eric after he paused and said "You exceeded you pause limit" freaking cracked me up because of the pose and everything.

they're called, "baby metal" because of their age when they started out plus they are considered "kawai Metal" which means cute metal. that's why they have that cuteness and baby image. for this show, i believe the lead singer is 16 and the other two girls were 14. the lead singer is two years older

It is made with colaboration of 2 guitarists from DragonForce :D If you want to admire her vocals, watch Akatsuki or Karate ^^

If you love harmony react to the AKATSUKI by babymetal after this ;)

Congrats on 101k views! 🔥🦊🔥
