Also the reason you get that Dragonforce feel is because they helped write this song.

50% Metal 50% UwU 100% Babymetal!!!

I love the fact that Su takes her in-ear out every time they reach a climax, it just shows how invested she is in their performance. She loves that crowd interaction

"They put other metal shows to shame !" -> You have no idea how right you are. They've won several prestigious international awards for "Best Live Act" over the years (notably from Kerrang! and MTV), overshadowing other great bands. I think by watching the video you get a glimpse of why that is possible eventough, trust me, this is only the tip of the iceberg you're about to climb down. Some people even rightfully call them "Metal Theatre" because when you go to one of their show, you get a damn show. BABYMETAL is meant to be a live band. Been a metalhead for 20 years now, I'd lost my metal mojo for the better part of a decade to be honest but then I discovered BABYMETAL and once I did, I binged it, and I am now a die hard fan. I simply can not get enough of them. They're a breath of fresh air for metal. I am glad you're starting off your journey with this song. For metalheads, this is often a proper introduction to BABYMETAL. Have fun down the fox hole ;)

Fun fact: Dragonforce helped write this song and it's actually faster than every song Dragonforce has ever written (Road of Resistance clocks in at a very beefy 205 bpm, the fastest Dragonforce song is 200 bpm)

All I am going to say is you ain't seen nothing yet. That is how a 17 year old girl control 20,000 fans. This was the last song of an hour and half show. Babymetal has to be seen to understand.

I love watching people go through all 5 stages of Babymetal: 1. What am I watching 2. Wow I wasn't expecting that 3. Ok not to bad 4. I'm actually kinda into this 5. I NEED MORE BABYMETAL!!!!! All in one video.

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🏴 🏴 🏴 "Stand up and shout, Shout!, Justice Forever!" - (Road of Resistance) DragonForce is a good call. Herman Li and Sam Totman contributed guitar tracks for the studio version. The venue was Saitama Super Arena (SSA) in Japan with an audience of 20,000. Kami Band (live musicians) were Takayoshi Ohmura and Leda Cygnus on guitars, BOH on bass, and Hideki Aoyama on drums. You might like their official video for the song 'Karate': kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fdx0ZqZ5ppqcoHU.html Great production value on that one.

Combining Kawaii(cute) with the Metal....that's Babymetal!! Want Thrash, djent, Black or some Viking metal? No problem...let's just throw in some EDM, ska or reggae with it along with the always generous helping of cuteness. That's Babymetal. Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!

Thanks for the react. Metal bands love Baby Metal. They have sung Pain Killer with Rob Halford of Judas Priest. They have sung Breaking the Law with The Red Hot Chili Peppers, they have performed one of their songs Gimme Chocolate with Skrillex and on the Late Show. In this video the leader singer Su was 17 and the two other girls were 15. Korn has snuck on stage to perform with them. In an interview Cory Taylor of SlipKnot was asked what he listened to at home and he said "BabyMetal". This song is their epic masterpiece. Other top songs are: 1. Legend of 1997 Head Banger - celebrates the birth year of the lead singer. Song is about a 15 year old girl going to her first head banger concert. 2. Karate the official video is a work of art. 3. Pa Pa Ya! feat. F. Hero - the girls are all grown up now and stunningly beautiful - insane performance. 4. Rondo of Nightmare with a Mischief of God intro. - The gods of metal call up the goddess of metal with an insane opening. They have songs that highlight the band, songs that highlight the lead singer, songs the highlight side dancers and insane performances in with everyone just goes bonkers.

Rob Halford: “I think Babymetal are one of the most unique metal experiences in the world right now. Not only their appearances, and their style and everything that surrounds them visually, but they're an incredible band as well "

Hey, you sing pretty well haha! The Japanese sure know how to put on a performance. I understand that BABYMETAL isn't for everyone, but I have never met a more supportive and proud group of fans. Thanks for the reaction: I loved it and I hope you will listen to some of the suggestions from my fellow BABYMETAL fans. We'd be glad to answer any of your questions. BABYMETAL for life! 🦊 🦊 🤘

Babymetal - Akatsuki live!

The amount of professionalism and theatricality these girls show is just insane, what a performance.

Good reaction, I'm glad you enjoyed it even if this song won't necessarily go on your play list. They do all sorts though, most genres of metal and they can/will mix in other musical styles and genres (often when you least expect it). If you listen to more you won't find two songs that sound the same - some may appeal more to you than this, there is a chance some just won't do it for you or won't suit your own tastes. That's fair enough, but either way it won't be boring (personally I don't think they have one bad song, but that is my opinion and not everybody will agree).

Yes! Babymetal is amazing.Bro they can be super poppy but they can get downright heavy as well. No two songs are the same. Akatsuki is heavy and it's a solo song by the lead vocalist, Su-metal. They have performed with Rob Halford of Judas Priest as well. It catches people off guard the first time or two, but this band is a heavy hitter. More babymetal! You can check out Syncopation live compilation video, its awesome. You'll find their live performances are better than their music videos (which are still awesome) Cheers bud!

RIP Mikio Fujioka aka guitarist for Babymetal❤🎸 1/19/1981 - 1/5/2018🤘🏻

The Kami Band are on another level. Drummer Hideki Aoyama is absolutely phenomenal 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Here is the playlist of babymetal you must react Megitsune, Karate, Ijime,dame, zettai, Gimme chocolate Doki doki morning, Akatsuki, Headbanger LINE

The control they have over their audiences is awesome

Every time i watch that video, I can't help but think- "this is the BEST live show to ever exist." lol

see them 1st time: WTF?, 2nd time you get addicted and when you try their vids from school Sakura gakuin, they go straight into your heart and youre lost forever!!! And isn't Suzukas voice just damn awesome?

5:18 That smile on the girl on the right (I think that's Moa) looking at the crowd is just so adorable.

what a great compliment to music.... Baby Metal is working hard to there road.... thanks for ths one

BABYMETAL - HEADBANGER - Live (Makuhari Messe) HD They have 20 great songs. Nobody is going to even recommend you their best song because it always gets struck down by copyright. BM fans are the nicest fanbase ever.

i think that was the cutest see you ive ever heard, and the best response from the crowd aswell. so freaking good

you entering BABYMETAL Universe on the Epic door so enjoy your journey and remember " expect the unexpected" :)

I'm catching this way late, but I loved this reaction! This is my favorite musical performance of all time. I want to share the three things that put this on an entirely different level. 1. Their ages. At this show, SUMETAL had just turned 17 less than 3 weeks prior. YUIMETAL & MOAMETAL were just 15! 2. This was the final song in a 90+ minute show. Their energy and stamina are truly incredible! 3. The crowd engagement. From the splitting of the pit to the Acapella sing-along, the crowd was SO into this! What makes that truly amazing is that the album that this song is on wasn't even released yet. In fact, BABYMETAL had only performed this song like 3 times prior to this show. Inspite of that the crowd not only knew what to do, they knew exactly when to do it! A truly awesome performance. 🤘🦊🤘

The atmosphere at power metal gigs is fucking UNREAL!

Welcome to the world of BABYMETAL! This might be the first time I have heard a reactor sing the "Woooohh" part at correct pitch. :-) In my opinion this is not their best song, but it's definitely one of the best performances. BABYMeTAL and their crowds are always a treat, though. Their music is very diverse, this is actually one of their least experimental and unique songs. Most of their catalogue is more Pop influenced than this one. That's not a bad thing, though. On the contrary, the way they fuse all sorts of different genres to something fascinatingly new and unique makes for a whole new and fantastic experience. I'm a Metal guy, but they have very quickly become my most favourite band (by far), and I love even the most poppy tunes more than anything else. And the music is not the only thing that sets them apart from other band. The dancing, the costumes, the stages, the musicians, the crowds, the smiles... it's all damn near perfect. And as you have witnessed, the live shows are awesome! In case you'd like to check out another song, I'd like to recommend two videos: "Rondo of Nightmare" is a Su (the main singer) solo with great vocals, and this version features a cool instrumental intro as well: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h96JdMZ63tGWc6M.html The second one, "Megitsune" is a bit more more on the kawaii (cute) side of their Kawaii Metal. It's one of the few cases where I recommend the official music video first: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mbFjgbCLpruvd6s.html

And to think....they do this as a show CLOSER after already going for almost 2 hours. And this was when they were 15-16 years old!

Rob Zombie said about them, those girls have more power during a liveshow than most of the western metal bands^^

I'm still not sure what to think of Baby Metal but I do like the energy they bring live . Through Rose by The Anchor

Man its so hard to really convey how hype it is to be in the crowd during road of resistance. Like everyone just clears out this circle, that horn blaring and everyone just waiting like the moment just before a battle. Then 1 2 3 GO! And everybody goes apeshit. The best way I can describe it is that I almost died. Most fun i've EVER had at a concert, hands down.

Nice reaction dude, more BABYMETAL, live performance is the Best way to enjoy them.

I love this band. That Band (The Kami Band) is sick. That drummer especially. Check out another Japanese band called Band Maid. All female and they play their own instruments. Check out their song Dice. they are amazing.

In the words of the great Rob Zombie "Babymetal has 90% more energy than any band we play with" KITSUNE Up!🤘🦊🤘 Hail to our 3 metal Queens and to the mighty Kami band. Welcome to the Foxhole, brother. You summed it up "they have made metal fun"

Su-metal, the lead singer has an amazing voice. Even if you don't understand the lyrics, you wanna sing along! This video is one of their best because it showcases the band more than others. And it's the band (while the singers are the Heart) are the Blood of the music. Even now, after a long following, I still sometimes shake my head and go "Wow!"

Its really crazy how they fricking memorized all that choreography. It would have been so awesome to be at that show and feel that energy. Japanese people love there metal!!!!

THANK YOU for a great reaction!....Im glad you liked it, I have been a fan of Babymetal, (did I just say that out LOUD?), for about four years and Road of Resistance and Pa Pa Ya are my favs

Dragonforce co-wrote the song with them

Its a Guilty pleasure, come in to the Fox den, enjoy we all Rock down here. :)

The new Poppy album is literally mix of Baby metal and industrial metal, plus deathcore breakdown’s. It’s not something I would listen usually, but if you check Poppy - Concert you will understand why I like that album 🤘

My first ever concert was babymetal last year, and they are even better live, the amount of energy is insane, and since its metal meets j-pop you get a wide variety of fans and it just made it overall an amazing experience, cant wait for them to return to the US to see them again.

You need to go to a BabyMetal show. Seriously, just go. I’m a huge deathmetal fan, that’s most of what I go to. I’ve seen BabyMetal twice and the energy is just insane. No one else gets close. It’s like a blowtorch to the face. And their pits get wild. So much fun.

Rondo of nightmare with gods of mischief intro is the most metal thing i’ve seen in 15 years. If that doesnt make you a fan, nothing else will.

Thanks for choosing to react to BABYMETAL, they're amazing! As someone who is new to the group, I thought I'd give you and your followers a little background on them. BABYMETAL is a Japanese Kawaii Metal group consisting of (for the most part) SU-METAL on lead vocals, YUIMETAL and MOAMETAL on backing vocals/dancing, or "SCREAM AND DANCE" as they like to call it. I say 'for the most part' as Yui & Moa have a few songs that they do as duets without Su and Su has a few songs she does as solos whilst Yui & Moa take a well deserved break. They were formed in 2010 as part of the idol group Sakura Gakuin, before touring on their own in 2011 and have gone from strength to strength. They started singing to backing tracks with actors in skeleton suits pretending to play instruments (known as BABYBONES) but soon incorporated the Kami Band into their concerts, bringing them in full time at the end of 2013. The Kami Band consists of some of Japan's premier musicians on rotation based on availability. The most popular configuration consisting of Takayoshi Ohmura and Mikio Fujioka on guitar with Leda Cygnus as stand-in, BOH on bass and Aoyama Hideki on drums. These are the people you will see most often in videos. Since the untimely passing of Mikio at the end of 2017 they have enlisted the talents of Isao Fujita on guitar. At the end of 2018 YUIMETAL left the band because of health problems and in 2019 there are 3 girls named AVENGERS that will take her place in a rotating manner. Below is a list of some of their best performances that I hope you will consider for future reactions. Should you decide to do more BABYMETAL reactions in the future, you should be aware that KZfaq will block almost all videos that incorporate audio. The best way round this is to mute the video and provide a link that we can open in a new window and sync with yours. Just give us a countdown before you start playing it. The BABYMETAL fandom is very used to this way of doing things. ===== BABYMETAL ALBUM BABYMETAL DEATH (Legend 1997) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLiTbMeTzM-mgH0.html BABYMETAL DEATH Legend S drive.google.com/file/d/1YF06RceMufeKYBqN5OXRSgI8aEww-6Xu/view?usp=sharing Megitsune (Legend 2015) streamable.com/v7w18 Gimme Chocolate!!

the musicians of the band are incredibly good, lots of energy, incredible

Collect anything from the first album: - Babymetal Death - Gimme Choco! - Megitsune - Akatsuki - Catch me if you can - Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!! The rest are great too, but these are more for me..!

Some guys from Dragonforce collaborated with Babymetal writing this song.

BabyMetal rocks better than a lot of well known metal bands in these days , they are fresh , new and metal as hell. KAWAII METAL FROM JAPAN , HELLFUCKIN` YEAH !!!!

Those dislike are people don't like his reaction because no one dislike BABYMETAL

First time! lol....love it....I remember my first time....😁😀☺😅 Old Rocker here...love BabyMetal. Watching your reaction was almost as good as watching them...almost 😮

of course it sounds like dragonforce.... herman wrote it for them... also did rehearsels with them... says he has never seen such commitment and work ethic or respect for his work... says it was an honour working with the girls and the band...

I think why the Metal Bands don’t like BabyMetal is because they are fames at a young age. But Sumetal has been working most of her life with the rest of the girls to get to this point. You can find a video of Suzuka Nakamoto of her musical growth. She is young but no new comer.

If I had that much crowd control in Warcraft, I would be unstoppable.

I've watched so many uploaded performances of them, and so many people react to *this* song (I can't get enough), and I get the chills around the performance at 5:15 every. single. time. I can't imagine the goosebumps I'd have if I ever actually went to a Babymetal concert.

moses splitted the water, su splits the crowd hihi

Yes! Please watch more Babymetal! :D They're amazing

Ok if you want metal and Babymetal watch Babymetal Death Live Legend 1997. It was Su-Metal’s (leaf singer) 16th birthday show. It is one of the most metal things I have seen in years.

Good reaction dude and a pretty good place to start your BABYMETAL journey! Even if the song itself isn't my favourite by them, that performance is crazy good. For 3 young girls to command a crowd like that is insane. That's how you put on a show. And even if you're not a fan of the music, they are ALWAYS entertaining to watch and just PURE FUN. Like others have said, no 2 BM songs are the same so I'm sure you'll find something to your liking as well. Looking forward to seeing more of your reactions. Keep it up!

The energy in the Saitama Super Arena that night was absolutly AMAZING, It hooked me hard. Been to 21 BabyMetal shows since that night and they each are absolutly fun.

Hi you see the intro to world of resistance

i got so excited cuz of the bmth intro LMAOO

They OWNED that fucking stage!

I just got to know the band 2 years ago and I loved it, saw almost every clip I could find, great musicians, great songs, great performance!

whoever suggested baby metal ...thank you! I love seeing ppls reactions kinda like mine 2 yrs ago now i own 2 cds and a tshirt! what will happen in 2020... #onlytheFoxGodknows

"We are resistant!" "We are resistant!!" "Put your Kitsune (Fox) up!!"

Next song, Babymetal - Gimme Chocolate! You should find a total hard core metal + kawaii-ness of this group :)

Saw them here in Chicago they put on a great show. The elaborate shows like you watched are in Japan smaller venues in the states. Check out their song headbanger fun song.

Just looking through your list of reaction videos and its CARZY how this video has 244+ k views and that a lot of the top views are Babymetal! 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼 🍅 and none has comes close!

Great reaction! I'm glad you liked it in your very first time listening to Babymetal. It's not the usual song that people use to start with, but that makes your reaction even better. This is also one of my all time favorites and this is the most enjoyable version/show (imho). If I may suggest you some more, please try to react to Megitsune (official mv) or Akatsuki (live at Budokan Black Night). Thanks!

Thanks for not stopping the music.. I love watching reactions from this crazy ass, one of a kind, kick ass band Babymetal.. but when these people stop the damn video to say something stupid, you loose the momentum.. anyway, that was good.. and this song never gets old

Congratulations! you're the first person, reactor, fan, anybody that I've ever heard comment on how they were out of time when Su came back in on the chant.

It's ok to laugh and smile at BABYMETAL! Don't feel bad. We all do!

This is a great babymetal reaction. Totally honest appraisal. Love it.

So this was a week ago, by now you should be a complete fan, welcome aboard..its a wild fucking ride!

"She looks like she can just fucking kicks anyone's ass" Yes, she can ;) All hail Queen Su-Metal! 🦊🤘❤

Looks around “I hope nobody sees me enjoying this” - we see you >.

You guys gotta see Ningen Isu "Heartless Scat". Japanese grandpa metal. Our music isn't dead.....just decided to park in another country for a while.

That's just it, my list is now is Black Tounge, Enterprise Earth, Slipknot and BabyMetal.

The biggest 5 foot giants you've ever seen... lol.. great live shows!!

Your voice is awesome too. I'm waiting your next reaction in Japan.

That moment when the audience rushes that space SU-metal opened like moses. Effing priceless !

I have some friends here in the US that are into metal big time. I tried to into them to BabyMetal and they were like: "WOW! This looks like it will kick a**!". Then the girls started to sing and then they were like: "Oh, Japanese? Well this sucks.". Urge to pimpslap increasing. Slap commence in 3...2...1...

Hey ØHRIØN, you have good voice!! I saw for the first time a man who could sing wo-oh with the right key.

You should react to "Catch me if you Can", this song is fucking amazing!

When you new song isn't finished but you need it to close the show What do you do? Just let the crowd sing for 3 min they'll love it trust me

Welcome in the Foxhole and addiction = one of us.......one of us......one of us....^^ No shit: I´m 44yo and found out about them 2-3 years ago and it was like the best drug @ great, fresh and so confusing ;)

The lead guitarist also plays in a band called yousei teikoku its worth reacting to their songs ^^

Welcone to the rabbit hole of Japanese metal and rock. Pretty sure they are both already in the comments, but check out ANY live clip of Band Maid (honestly the best hard rock band in the world right now) and heartless scat by Ningen Isu (miyagi, uncle Fester and fake Elvis Prestley playing amazing metal)

Awesome 😎 this is my favourite baby metal song 🤟

There is so much where j-pop meets metal and creates new music. just see Ladybaby next :)

They have a song about chocolate. . It's cute and catchy and didn't know a freaken word they were saying but the sound was very good so I went and found the words. Silly words and some fast gibberes

If you like that band maid will blow you away

Him: are they doing a wall of death? Me: yessir Him: it's about to get stupid heavy isn't it? Me: hehee

The Japanese schoolgirl...possibly the most powerful beings in creation...

OK ... Time for some Band Maid -Play - Live and Rammstein -Du Hast- Live in Paris

BM fans like hawks, diving onto every new reaction
