I've known this band a few years too. Surprised at how big they're getting worldwide, iTunes top 20 in the US and UK among other countries, Billboard charting in the US... I'd like to see this get big tbh. The Guardian are already covering them. Could be an excellent gateway band for people. It's got some sick riffs all wrapped up in a kawaii J-Pop package. I hate the people who are trying to see some sort of perverse undertones in this though. They're the ones with the problems, if anything.

Also keep an eye out for Black Babymetal. The sub-sub-group within Babymetal which is Babymetal sans Su-Metal.

Speaking of MTH, they're another band that merged J-Pop with metal, but to a much lesser extent. This kinda takes what they were doing but takes it to a whole new level, maxing out the J-Pop and electronica (which is absent in MTH's music) and creating a whole new breed.

I'll take MTH anyday personally.

zz

I saw a live video of these girls and it was the weirdest fucking thing I've ever seen/heard. I might get this album just out of pure curiosity.

Album Rating: 4.0

why do people always overstate the weirdness of everything like yeah this shit ain't another run-of-the-mill sludge post-metal band or w/e, and yeah it's from japan but like, do u even have an internet connection?



edit: i mean yeah it's a j-pop metal band, but

it's embarrassing and pathetic

source: >50% of their name

yeah this is the worst shit ever

Album Rating: 4.0

yeah agreed

nah, actual metal is
this is at least half pop so it's not even that bad

lol

some things just don't mix

i mean to be fair most jpop is outright abysmal so that doesn't help either

Most of them sound like Children of Bodom scoring an anime. Not that that's a bad thing.

no, that's a bad thing.
