Babymetal is that Japanese band with the cute little girls that sing with Ramstein-style guitars in the back. The band has gotten HUGE. I'm pretty sure they sell more tickets than the Yankees.

So they released a new song, and I fucking love the sound of it.

That shit is like pop-nu wave metal, lol. Reminds me of a sped up Mackarena or Gangem style,lol.

I don't disagree, but I still like the beat. That siren thing is "neat".

This was their first big hit.


And here's the second big hit from a follow up album.

This is Mikio Fujioka. He was Babymetal's lead guitar before he died in January of '18.

If you're gonna listen to baby metal at least start listening to real metal too. This just came out, under appreciated black metal:

They peaked at Gimme Chocolate. I love the concept, but they hit it out of the park with the first hit and have never come close to it again.

Since Japanese metal is on the menu... grandpametal.


Ok, this is pretty awesome. The guys voice is great. It reminds me alot of David Draiman. Not the tone or anything. Just the quality of the vocals.

Here's another of their songs.
