You made my day! Im glad you enjoyed it and I hope you do check out more. They're a very unique band that's for sure, so just be prepared for some initial confusion. 'Road of Resistance' live in Japan would be my next one, but I'm sure others have their own ideas too. Have a great week ahead man! 👍🏻(also expect lots of YT traffic haha)
THANK YOU for the support.
And a great recommendation!
@@TheRealMediaMan You're welcome! Love your reactions, and loved seeing you discover Tarja with NW - enjoying the unorthodox classical vocals over metal, so figured you'd be up for some unique things. I had four specific initial tracks to choose from in my head, but opted for this because it was absolutely imperative you saw the band itself first haha. The first BM song I saw I was like "wth is this...?!", but man does it grow on you.
Hell, I'm sending another haha (I have an order in mind) - but don't feel obliged to do it quickly or anything. Your page after all :)
Cheers man!!
@@steveholman6692 your wish is my command hahaha
@@TheRealMediaMan haha!! *fist bumps* Enjoy!!
two other girls were sitting under the stage doing their homework
BABYMETAL are a fusion between idol-pop and metal. The whole act leans HARD on the contrast of the 2 styles, but it may be off-putting if you're expecting straight metal. This track is one is their most standard metal-sounding tracks. If you check out more of them, expect it to be more teen-pop-oriented, but it's a feature, not a bug. They are taking 2 musical styles that have no business working together and making them work with the biggest, hypest live show they possibly can. Their whole goal is to get a staduim full of people as fired up on adreneline as they can and they use whatever musical and stage elements they need to do it. There are 2 other voccal members of the band who weren't in this video, and their whole job is to work the audience.
If you go in thinking 'i don't like pop music' you'll be setting yourself up to dislike the rest of their catalog. If you go in saying 'how could a band possibly make pop and metal work together?' then you'll be much more likely to appreciate what they're trying to do. Always watch live performances and notice to how well they work a crowd, that's their real schtick.
Great comment 🦊🤘

BABYMETAL create new synapses in the brain.
It can be a little confusing until you get used to it.
On paper, combining Japanese Pop with Metal shouldn't work at all.
IMO, it's actually pretty great once you set aside some expectations about what metal has to be like.
The Kami Band members (BABYMETAL's live band) are all guys.
Even the bald bassist, BOH. : )
Lead singer Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto, or just "Su") was sixteen years old at that Budokan Black Night performance.
The song had its world premiere the night before, at Budokan Red Night.
Rondo is easily in my top ten BABYMETAL songs.
Su performed three solos that night.
She did 'No Rain, No Rainbow', followed by 'Akatsuki' earlier in the set.
That March 2014 is still one of my favorite BABYMETAL concerts.
Not only is Su brave enough to sing and dance on a tiny elevated platform in the dark, but she is also fearless enough to follow those Kami Band solos.
Dancing in the dark 2 meters above a rotating stage, a 16yr old Suzuka sings of an unending nightmare being chased by a Faceless Terror and begging a Boon that it show her its face just once before she dies.
That's Metal.
That's Babymetal!!
Oh, and the Kami Band are all guys..and its not a "bald cap"..BoH, the Bassist is bald..LoL!!
Thanks for the reaction and as always....
Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!
That puts a new spin on it for sure. It's impressive
Good reaction and welcome to the BABYMETAL Galaxy. You were unlucky having this one blocked, it is usually one of the safe ones, so thanks for taking the time and effort to get it unblocked.
This performance was in March 2014 at the Budokan in Tokyo - a very prestigious venue. BABYMETAL are still the youngest female band to headline there and they sold it out two nights running. Su-metal, who you saw here, was just 16. They are currently aged 24 and 23.
You hit on one of Su-metal's solo songs. She is the lead vocalist and the whole idea and concept for BABYMETAL is based around and only exists because of her talents. It may not have been the vocal style you were expecting ... but that is BABYMETAL, they are not what you expect, they don't follow the crowd or sound like every other band - it is just one of the things they have going that makes them stand out and Su-metal's vocals are incredible, they don't have to use any tricks for her to be heard above the sound of the instrumentals and she is so versatile - you will hear many different musical styles and genres in their music if you do continue to listen to them.
There can't be many vocalists who could follow an intro like that ... and who would then completely take over the whole stage with their performance. Su-metal was still only just 16 here, it was only the second time she had sung this song live (first time was the night before).
Don't worry about not understanding the language - she expresses the emotions and the feel of a song, even to those of us who have no Japanese whatsoever.
'Rondo of Nightmare' is possibly their darkest song lyrically. Su is caught in a recurring nightmare being chased through the dark by something she can't see. Finally she hides but it is still coming closer and, accepting there is no escape she asks that if she is to die won't it at least show itself first.
Like most nightmares it ends suddenly - like when we wake up .... so I'd think that was deliberate.
The other two girls - Yuimetal and Moametal - provide backing vocals, harmonies and do most of the dancing (yes, they have choreography and in all my decades of listening to rock and metal I never knew it could be improved by adding dancing) - obviously you haven't seen them yet. They are more than just dancers - their role is key to what makes BABYMETAL unique. Su-metal rules the stage, Yuimetal and Moametal get the audience involved, they lead chants, when they sing the audience sing along to their parts, when they jump or make a particular move so does the audience.
I have more info - I will add a reply or two to this.
The backing band are the Kami Band - they are all male (Kami means god or spirit, so they are the gods of guitar, bass and drums summoned - there is a lot of lore in what they do - to support BABYMETAL in all their live shows and they always used to wear the traditional white burial robes and corpse face paint). More recently the robes are black and the face paint has been replaced with masks - the fans for the most part do not like the masks, they like to see their expressions and that they are having a really good time too.
In this performance the Kami Band were Leda Cygnus (blue guitar), Takayoshi Ohmura (gold guitar), BOH (6 string bass) and Hideki Aoyama (drums). They are all elite session musicians and they have their own bands and projects etc, so they will swap in and out depending on their availability, so there are other members of the Kami Band you will see in other videos, but they have had the same hard core of 6 or 7 musicians ever since 2013.
BABYMETAL formed in 2010 as a sub-unit of a J-Pop Idol group called Sakura Gakuin. SG had a school theme and was for about a dozen girls aged 10 to 15. As part of the school theme there were sub-units like after school clubs (cooking, tennis, science, baton etc) and as well as the main group's songs and dances the sub-units, with three or so of the girls in each one, would get their own themed songs and dances that they would perform at the Sakura Gakuin shows and Idol festivals.
One of the producers, Kei Kobayashi, was a life long metalhead, more used to working with bands, but J-pop Idol music was creating a bit of a monopoly of music in Japan and getting the vast majority of the air time on TV and radio, so to make a living he was working in the kids division with the Amuse Talent Agency who formed Sakura Gakuin.
Kobayashi had noticed a girl, Suzuka Nakamoto, a year or two earlier singing with her previous J-pop trio (Karen Girl's) and was struck by her unusually loud, powerful and full on no holds barred singing style and had the thought she would be wasted in pop and could even front a metal band ... she was only 10 or 11 at that time.
Suzuka joined Sakura Gakuin as a founder member along with one of her friends from the J-pop trio as that group ended when the anime they sang the songs for ended its run.
Kobayashi proposed another sub-unit to be led by Suzuka - the Heavy Music Club - a fusion of metal with the J-pop style vocals and aesthetics. Amuse were not impressed with his idea - Sakura Gakuin was aimed at coaching the girls in all sorts of entertainment skills so they could go on after graduating when they were 15 to further their careers in their chosen field, but they still wanted to make a little money from the sale of records and so on and, given that the audience for metal in Japan at that time was shrinking, there was no real potential for a heavy music club to either make any money or to progress the girls any further.
However, under the umbrella of Sakura Gakuin, Amuse allowed Kobayashi his pet project - they thought he was mad, so they provided no extra budget (the money went to the more commercially viable sub-units) so there was no real risk involved.
So Kobayashi asked Su to lead the sub-unit and the two youngest and smallest girls in Sakura Gakuin - Yui Mizuno and Moa Kikuchi - to be her support. Their roles were defined as vocal and dance (Suzuka) scream and dance (Yui and Moa). At that time, in 2010, Su was 12, Yui and Moa are 18 months younger and were 11.
They would perform under the name BABYMETAL the name is not about their age (although they were very young so it probably did play a part too). The name was chosen for two reasons:
- to symbolise that they gave birth to a new genre of metal music (kawaii metal)
- because the writing (and pronunciation) in Japanese is nearly identical to the writing of "heavy metal" (and they love a pun):
BABYMETAL = ベビーメタル (be-bi-me-ta-ru)
heavy metal = ヘビーメタル (he-bi-me-ta-ru)
Suzuka became Su-metal, Yui and Moa became Yuimetal and Moametal.
Against all expectations BABYMETAL started to grow in popularity and to attract their own fans and audience who nobody had predicted would exist - even more than the other sub-units. It was decided that when Su was due to graduate from Sakura Gakuin after her 15th birthday BABYMETAL should separate from Sakura Gakuin to go with her has her (and Yui's and Moa's) vehicle as they progressed their careers and should become an independent band in their own right.
Up until then they had performed with a backing track and in a couple of small shows of their own they had a fake band dressed in skeleton suits and miming the instruments on stage with them - they were called Babybones. As part of the preparation for the split a live band was phased in playing at a couple of festivals and the encores in a couple of shows - they were the Kami Band, some of Japan's very best session musicians.
BOH the bassist has said the only instruction he was ever given was to play as hard and loud as possible and "don't hold back because they are girls, don't hold back because they are idols."
The separation was completed at the end of 2013 at a show called Legend 1997, the day after Su's 16th birthday (she was born in 1997). The Kami Band played the last 5 songs in that show and, starting with the shows at the Budokan, early in 2014 became the full time support for all live shows ... they have been with them ever since.
As I said earlier the Kami Band has core members, but they all have their own bands and projects so there are others who might step in depending on availability. In 2019 for the US tour and the European tour in 2020 the Kami Band of the West (American musicians) were introduced and supported BABYMETAL throughout those tours ... this was probably because (in part at least) these were the most extensive tours so far so the Kami Band of the East had some clashes in their own schedules that made being on tour for so long either very difficult or impractical and getting visas for so many people for those tours may have also been a consideration.
In 2014 BABYMETAL's video for their song 'Gimme Chocolate' went viral (Please DO NOT go for this one until you have heard more songs first, it is likely to put you right off as a metalhead - when you understand more about them it will make more sense) just before they embarked on their first 'world' tour - their first venture outside of Asia (this was just after the Budokan shows where 'Rondo of Nightmare' was filmed).
As a result they were moved from a small side stage or tent where they had been booked to play at Sonisphere festival in the UK and they were to open the main stage on the Saturday morning instead. This was pretty much make or break - they took to the stage to be faced by about 55,000 UK metalheads, most of whom had never heard of them (plus a few who had threatened to throw bottles at this 'gimmick' band) and a few hundred of their own fans.
They played 5 songs and left the crowd calling for more - their merch outsold all the other bands playing that weekend (there were big names among them like Iron Maiden, Slayer, Anthrax and Metallica).
You mentioned their collaboration with Rob Halford - they played a mash up of 'Painkiller' and 'Breaking the Law' at the APMA award show in 2016 - that was fun (obviously it suffers from the sound and camerawork and dead audience you might expect at an award show).
They do have a song 'Tales of the Destinies' which pays homage to Dream Theater ... I would wait until you have heard more before going for this personally as it does mark their progression and you wouldn't appreciate how they got there if you went straight to it).
Try 'Ijime, Dame, Zettai' live at Sonisphere 2014 for your next reaction, it was the closing number from their set. BABYMETAL have not looked back ever since, touring the world every year since then, winning over 20 of the 30+ awards they have been nominated for.
They became the first Japanese band to headline Wembley Arena, they sold out the Tokyo Dome (55,000 people) two nights running and their third album was the first by any Asian band to hit number 1 in the Billboard Hard Rock charts.
Sadly Yui left the band in October 2018 for undisclosed health reasons - her last show was in October 2017. Su and Moa have continued as a duo and are supported by any one of 3 girls (the Avengers - Kano, Riho and Momoko) dancing in the third spot.
Apologies for the walls of text - I think I got a bit carried away (not for the first time).
This one was a paid request. So I absolutely will make the effort to make sure it's available.
@@Grington300 You carried away ! Never 😁 🤘🦊 i think this comment may be needed 😉🤣
@@TheRealMediaMan like your principles😁🤘 🦊
Great reaction. Su-Metal's innocent and straightforward singing brings the primal joy and emotion of listening to music.
Tales of the Destinies🔥
Welcome & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 FYI, Dream Theater came to Japan this month (15th visit ? to Japan) and performed as a headliner in Download Japan 2022 on Aug.14 at a huge hall near Tokyo. I am a big fan of BABYMETAL, but I defer to other fans for information about them.
We say "Japan is the country obsessed by Rock Music". The history is very long and the obsession started in 1966 when Beatles visited Japan and held 5 concerts at Budokan. Speaking of hard rock / heavy metal music, a number of bands started to come to Japan since as early as 1970s : Led Zeppelin / Grand Funk Railroad (1971), Deep Purple (1972), Queen (1975), Kiss (1977), Cheap Trick / Van Halen / Scorpions (1978), Judas Priest (1978/79) and so on. Now, any type of rock can be enjoyed here, especially by many all-female or women-fronted bands. They are daughters of American / European rock, for sure. (Many are grand-daughters in terms of age.)
Uh-oh, we also say "Japan is the country obsessed by Jazz". It had started earlier than rock 😄
Welcome to the Foxhole and BabyMetal Galaxy 🦊🤘
You started with an unusual BabyMetal song and so good you got followers requesting BM songs, i love this SuMetal solo and is one of my favorite because of the heavy and dark sound but isn't a song that I would recommend anyone for first time watching, to get to know the core of BabyMetal you need to see and hear the whole group with the three of them, here is some basic info for you:
BabyMetal is a Japanese metal dance unit created in 2010 under another Jpop/Jrock group called Sakura Gakuin, they had 11 and 12 years old when started this and become independent after 2013, they created their own genre called kawaii-metal mixing Jpop with metal sound and different subgenres along with many more rhythms. Their name is a reference to a new genre and not related to their ages or "baby" faces, is a Japanese pun intended play words with "heavy-metal" which sounds similar to "baby-metal".
They are:
*SuMetal* lead vocalist.
*MoaMetal* scream and dance.
*YuiMetal* scream and dance, former member since 2018.
None of them are related.
Now if you're willing to keep following with this journey I highly recommend you songs with the three of them first, so if the lead singer voice keep throwing you off then you might consider to switch up because BabyMetal was built around SuMetal piercing voice, unique style and stage presence, and even the Kami Band will tell you that, she and the rest of the girls are the driven energy of this beautiful madness.
I already saw suggestions of Tales Of Destinies because you mentioned Dream Theater vibes, leave that for the moment and go for others like "Headbanger!!", "Megitsune", or "Catch Me If You Can" live at Budokan 2014 (this same live), you can find a safe to react version at GuilhermeCait channel, "Karate" and "Road Of Resistance" are a must too.
Thanks for sharing this and your thoughts. See you next time 🦊🤘
It wasn't my choice to start here. It was a paid request.
I'm basically hired to do a job so I did hahaha
@@TheRealMediaMan Yea i heard that, that's why I said it wouldn't be my first BM recommendation to watch, so no blames on you, but i can understand someone recommending this too. 🦊👍
You should have been hearing Leda (first solo, dark blue guitar) in your left ear. Ohmura Takayoshi (second solo, gold guitar) in your right ear.
That was BOH on bass. Hideki Aoyama on drums.
Four regulars from the Kamiband (godband) pool that support Babymetal during live shows. The kamis have been raised from the dead to be the divine spirits of guitar, bass and drums. Hence the burial robes and corpse face paint.
th-cam.com/video/E8pcFhPZQYg/w-d-xo.html - Headbanger (I also like the 1997 version of Legend, but this is better. Suzuka's more mature vocals, the scale of the concerts, the band at its peak) or Tales of Destinies if you mentioned Dream Theater. Very good reaction video, like.
funny you talk about Su's voice but you compare her with Lovebites. funny. this was from 2014 when she was 16 years old. Babymetal came before all your favorite Japanese bands. Band-Maid, Lovebites, Nemophalia, and many more came after Babymetal. the door was knocked down By Babymetal in the overseas markets and made it possible for others to follow them. if you talk to those bands you will find they credit Babymetal with opening up the market for them. but you have to see with the other two girls and the choreography to truly appreciate them. been a fan since 2013 and i love them. Su is one of the best front persons out there. Babymetal controls the crowd like no other. Babymetal was started to ignite the metal scene at that time in Japan. they have succeeded because the Japanese metal scene is so good now. and they were started when the lead singer, Su was 12 years old and the other two girls you will see later were 11 years old. Su is 24 now. she has been on stage in some form since she was 5 years old. yes you have ot see some more to appreciate them totally.
This is the real deal. BABYMETAL are in a class of their own. Su, the singer, is widely regarded as one of the best in the business her range, versatility & talent are phenomenal. Subverting expectations is what they are all about and they are fully aware of that.
I'd need to hear more to confirm that "range and versatility " so far on this track it's just.... average.
@@TheRealMediaMan Some people tend to over-exagerrate Su's abilities. I think she has a great clean vocal style but these comments you can literally read those on every band in the world's comments section. It really is embarassing to say the least. I love Su's vocals but I can't help but cringe at these caricatural statements... Sorry on their behalf.
@@TheRealMediaMan well you'll get the part about versatility after listening to like 10 different genres in Babymetal songs, I think she's has very unique vocal and talented in singing, not the best in the world tho, but there's really something great when hearing her singing live that I never felt from any singer - even those I know with crazier more impessive skill and vocal.
And comparing to Lovebites is... Nah, I don't like Asami singing style at all, I like her voice, she has great voice but she's way, wayyy below in my list as a vocalist

Lyrics Overview:-
"Rondo Of Nightmare (悪夢の輪舞曲; Akumu No Rondo)"
欠けた月が 照らし出した
陰りの中 はびこる狂気
笑い声 響き渡り
牙をむいて 目を光らせている
逃げられない
ゆらゆら 揺らめく
心に見え隠れ
悪夢の輪舞曲が 繰り返されている
目覚めの光は
遥かかなた 見えなくなり
ただ 走り抜ける
闇の中を
森の中 泉の中
息を殺し 身を潜めても
迫り来る すぐ近くに
淀んだ声 終わらない夜
嗚呼...
もう ここから 出られないのなら
貴方の 姿を 見せてはくれないか
ゆらゆら 揺らめく
心に見え隠れ
悪夢の輪舞曲が 繰り返されている
目覚めの光は
遥かかなた 見えなくなる
ただ 堕ちていくの
闇の中へ

The waning moon has lit up
the insanity rampant in the shade
The laughter resounds around
It bares its fangs and its eyes gleam
I can’t escape from it
It flickers slowly
appearing and disappearing in my mind
A nightmare rondo is being repeated
The awakening light
is gone far away out of my sight
I can do nothing but run
through the darkness
In the woods, in the fountain
I hide myself holding my breath
but it’s still coming closer to me
A stagnant voice. An endless night
Ah…
If I can no longer get out of here
won’t you show me your figure?
It flickers slowly
appearing and disappearing in my mind
A nightmare rondo is being repeated
The awakening light
is gone far away out of my sight
I can do nothing but fall
into the darkness
Kitsune Up 🦊🦊🦊🤘🤘🤘🇯🇵🇸🇬#notacult.
Good first reaction, thanks!
You already have a ton of great information so I'm not going to repeat it :) BABYMETAL is different from everything you have seen or listened to. In all aspects. So, always expect the unexpected and prepare to be surprised. Enjoy your BABYMETAL journey!
PS. since you mentioned Dream Theater a number of times... I guess you like prog metal so "Tales of the destinies" will blow your mind up. I promise! 😎
My first thought was that it's unlikely that you have heard them and forgotten. :-) They are too unusual to be forgotten quickly, whether in a negative or positive sense. This may sound like a warning, which is not my intention, but this is pretty much the only song that has such a gloomy atmosphere. The vast majority of their music has a very positive, uplifting and happy vibe. Many metalheads cannot tolerate that, as happiness is not Metal, apparently. Also, other songs have much more choreographed dancing, involving two additional dancers and backing-vocalists (with even higher pitched voices). That probably makes it even stranger, but it's absolutely worth giving it a try.
If you open up to it, you might notice that those are the most unique and interesting Metal performances ever. Most of the songs combine various subgenres of Metal with other musical genres. You'll find influences from Waltz, Ska, Reggae, EDM, Hip Hop, Dubstep, Latin dance music, Indian tunes and more. So it certainly never gets boring. It does take some getting used to, though. Many listeners only appreciate them fully by the third song. The usual consense is that the heavy music and the catchy vocals SHOULD not match, but amazingly, they do. I hope you still get there.
I have discovered them in 2017, and I have barely listened to anything else since then. I just don't know anything that can compare. I have never had any interest in choreographed dancing (and to be honest, I still don't), but for some reason I absolutely love it with BABYMETAL. It makes the shows so much more entertaining and energetic. Every BABYMETAL performance I hear or (even more so) watch leaves me happier than I was going into it.
To ease you into it, I would recommend "Road of Resistance" (live in Japan), especially if you don't mind a Dragonforce vibe. It still doesn't give you the full dose of kawaii (cuteness), but you'll get more used to the vocals while being introduced to the dancing. After that, you might be ready for the more playful songs. The video does get blocked a lot, though, so you'd have to take some measures (pause frequently, possibly use a semi-transparent overlay). It's worth it, though, because I'm willing to bet that it's one of the best live performances you will have seen.
No I didn't react to them before. I was thinking back.
In this genre it's been LoveBites, and BandMaid.
Supporting "Road of Resistance", but "Catch me if you can" would be a jump into the lukewarm water...
Yeah please more Babymetal! 🦊🆙
Well, if you direct request one I'll have to do it haha
Enjoyed your reaction. exellent information by others in comments ( so will not repeat). As mentioned you will not get harsh vocals from BabyMetal. If you have a rule metal most be done in a certain way BabyMetal might not be for you, but if your willing to try different things and at least give them a chance which sounds as if you are . You may at least enjoy the experience of BabyMetal and they are an experience and in performance are 2nd to none .
There is no other Band out there like them and even if you end up finding there not your thing . At least you may respect there talent and not judge them just on there name as Grington300 300 explained there is more to there name than thought 😉 welcome to the BabyMetal Galaxy 😁🤘🦊
Oh no absolutely not. I was just surprised that's all. I kept comparing them to dream theater. I think that's high praise
@Martin Metal 👍
@@TheRealMediaMan there was no disrespect intended just giving you a heads up on what to expect . i was hoping you where going to check out more and i did enjoy your reaction and analysis . I was going to mention Tales of The Destinies because you mentioned Dream Theater but others mentioned it . was thinking to myself he is in for a shock 😁🤘🦊
@@martinmetal7481 no worries. I plan on checking out more
In Japanese theater. A ghost is represented with white clothes and white face makeup.
The band is called the Kami Band. Kami means divine. Divinity, god ect.
Funny and sad little fact, you mentioned Dimebag Darrell, but his brother Vinnie Paul's band actually opened for Babymetal in the US ones in LA. About a year before Vinnie Paul died. RIP
haha excellent reaction classic baby metal reaction in every way onwards and upwards just remember follow the timeline don't skip to the new stuff
Babymetal is a fusion of pop and metal. That is Japanese pop vocals and metal instrumentation. When I say pop, I am not talking Taylor Swift. I would say Japanese pop is more towards the rock side than American pop. At least the Babymetal version is. That being said, you are not going to hear any growling vocals from anyone on the stage. You have to experience Babymetal as is own thing. It's a different form of art. If you expect a conventional band, it's obviously more difficult to properly judge them. At the end of the day, Babymetal is not for everyone so no hard feelings if you continue to hesitate wth the vocals.
If you want to hear one more song, "Road of Resistance (Live in Japan 2015, heavy blocks)" would be a good start with all 3.
Nothing makes me smile more than to see someone start off like, "hmmm...I don't know about this...BABY? metal?" then ends with, "I don't know what I just watched, but I LIKE IT!!" The first song I ever heard was "Gimme Chocolate". A recommended video on my TH-cam feed back in 2014. One of the most shocking and "scratch your head" videos I'd ever watched. Thrash metal aLa Anthrax with weird kids voices and choreography? Wtf? But damn if it wasn't infectious. I must've watched that mosh pit inducing video 10 times in a row. I just wanted to get in a circle pit and thrash! Since this was early in their career, they only had a few videos online. Ijime Dame Zettai was the second video I watched and was blown away, again! The leads in that song blew me away. Then Headbanger and then Megitsune. I was hooked, and have been ever since. Been to over 20 of their shows including Tokyo Dome in Japan ( yes I went to Japan to see them in their natural habitat). They in turn turned me on to some of the most energetic and amazing music I never knew existed. Besides bands like Band-Maid and Lovebites, I discovered an underground idol subgenre you won't find anywhere else. Cute Japanese all girl groups (kinda like K-Pop groups like Blackpink and such) but with vicious metal growls and music. Underground, as in not your usual well known music scene. Tokyo style! May I suggest a couple of groups for you to check out. Broken By The Scream, Passcode, BiSH, Ladybaby, and one of my most favorites that unfortunately disbanded some time back but their music is still on my playlist cause it's that bad ass, Guso Drop. If you have time, check some of these out on your own time, and if they catch your interest, perhaps do some reactions to these.
Now back to BABYMETAL. They have about 50 songs in their discography. Every single one is unique on it's own. They delve into every genre you can think of. From Djent (Karate) to Ska (Yava!). From Japanese folk music inspired (Megitsune) to Indian influenced (Shanti Shanti Shanti). From prog (Tales of the Destinies/The One) to Death metal(BABYMETAL DEATH and Sis Anger) and everything in between. It goes from bubblegum pop metal (Awadama Fever) to fierce tear your face off rap/trap metal (BxMxC). If you react to a couple more I guarantee you'll fall down a Foxhole (rabbit hole) you won't be able to escape. And most important, HAVE FUN! It's what Babymetal is all about. Btw, my favorite BABYMETAL song is a Slipknot inspired gem about playing hide and seek with an ogre called Catch Me If You Can. Get ready to happy MOSH!!!
The band was built around this singer. She's not going away. You're not into her voice. That's cool. Babymetal has enough fans. I suggest that you try other bands. Nonetheless, I enjoyed your reaction. Best wishes.
Subverting expectations! I like it. Get used to that feeling with Babymetal. Quite a few people had to get used to the vocals. I suggest Headbanger from Legend 1997 show next. You shouldn't have block issues with that one.
Wait... 1997?
How old are they ? I thought they were teenagers
@@TheRealMediaMan Legend 1997 is reference to the lead singers year of birth. That show was celebrating her 16th birthday.
@@TheRealMediaMan they're 25 and 24 now :) Suzuka Nakamoto was 16 in that video.
@@Jordan-Ramses Yea, and they're having babies, according to you. 😂
@@jakemuller8626 and why do you care that I said that? You have some creepy obsession with them. It's creepy. Do you think you're going to marry them? They're probably already married.
Great reaction.
Thank you
BabyMetal isn’t traditional Metal. That’s why they created their own version of Metal…. Kawaii Metal (Kawaii means lovely, adorable, cute in Japanese). It’s a fusion of Jpop & Metal. The group was created as a way introduce Metal to young girls. Something girls can have as a gateway to Metal but something relatable to them. Thru the themes of their songs.
The backing band are some of the best session musicians in Japan…. Kami Band (Kami = Gods). The band members aren’t technically part of BabyMetal. But fans see them as part of BabyMetal. They are appreciative of the opportunities they’ve gotten playing for BabyMetal. Performing on venues throughout the world that they might never have had a chance to. Wembly Stadium. Download Festival. SonicSphere. Los Angeles Forum. Tokyo Dome. Budokan Arena. Shows in France. Norway. Netherlands. UK. America. Germany. Korea. Opening for Metallica. Playing for Rod Halford.
BabyMetal draws inspiration from different sub genres of Metal. Industrial. Thrash. Djent. Death Metal. New Metal. Ska. Progressive. Power. Speed.
All that said…. BabyMetal has been doing this for over decade. Even when Metal purists belittling them. Throwing racial insults. Mocking. The girls never responding negatively but graciously understands that they will try to do better to gain more acceptance from those people.
"Not what I expected" is kind of the whole shtick with BABYMETAL so... :D. Takes time to get used to it. That's not to say you will ever like the vocals, it's not for everybody but some people have learned to enjoy the weird contrast. It's OK if you don't though, I'm sure there's bound to be a few tracks you may like more than others.
Quick note on the name "BABYMETAL" : it's a play-on-words with the Japanese language. In Japanese, they call "heavy metal" "HEBI METARU" so by calling it "BEBI METARU" they get it super close, especially considering that the writing in Japanese "He" & "Be" are similar. BABY in their name also references them wanting to create/giving birth to a new genre of metal, which they succesfuly did since they're credited for the creation of what's now called Kawaii Metal. Which is a genre so obscure and so difficult to get right that not so many bands who came after using that formula so far have been able to recreate a tenth of their success.
Fair warning, I'm a metalhead and I know my kind. You will have a very hard time with some of their songs and you will need quite a few tries in their catalogue before you can "fully get it"' as you said. I personally enjoyed a few of their songs but it wasn't until I discovered some of their incredible live performances and some of their most brutal songs (for example BABYMETAL DEATH) that I really got into them. They will not be to everyone's taste but there's absolutely no denying their incredible talent and the remarkable mark they've managed to put on metal music specifically and on music in general.
I hope you'll continue on your journey and I sincerely hope that, when people recommend you song choices that I would definitely not approve of for a metalhead like you, that you don't get discouraged because there are definitely some gems in there that you might appreciate. Also, always go live when you can!
I'd highly recommend using the "BABYMETAL Reaction Resource" channel which has been specifically created to give reactors a safe(r) method to react to some of their best performances whilst minimizing the risks of blocks and/or demonetization.
You are right, for western ears the name "BABYMETAL" is totally weird at first. But if you dive deeper into this very surprising rollercoaster of a fox hole, you'll understand that they couldnt possibly find a better name. Grington gave a brief explanation already. But when they chose that name in 2010, they couldn't have known that they really would revive and boost (BABY = newborn) Japanese metal on a global scale.
You get Dream Theater vibes from this one song of them. And maybe 1 or 2 others. ;)
There is probably no metal band more versatile than this one. 3 studio albums, ~50 songs, no fillers, and no 2 songs are alike. Other songs will give you Dragonforce vibes, Metallica vibes, Sabaton vibes, Arch Enemy vibes, reggae vibes, bollywood vibes, pop vibes, [add 40 more types of vibes here].
Yes, due to their origin in the jpop idol scene, they are all about live shows. Sync dance choreography live on stage to metal? HELL YEAH! They made it work. They make the impossible look and feel like the most natural thing on earth.
BABYMETAL is not for everyone. They fill a niche that they created themselves - still alone after a decade of success. Their music is unique and top notch, and their live shows count to the best on the planet. Which is proven by several international awards, a #1 in the international rock album charts, and sold-out shows all over the globe.
🤘🦊🤘
It's called Kawaii metal j-pop and metal mixed together they're so popular they still make music one of the original members yui metal left the band I want to say in 2018 due to health issues so the newer stuff isn't the original lineup
Maybe you should check out their Tales of the Destinies...which is very Dream Theater-inspired.
Meh.. Too early with that one, imo. He'll have to do some major mods to not get blocked. If he continues, we can give Reactor Resource info.

@@TheRealMediaMan I second that. Tales of the Destinies is a prog metal masterpiece. The only ever live performance was incredible.
@@jamesmcclung153 I agree with you, to get to Tales Of The Destinies and The One he needs to know first at least a couple of more songs to know the roots and sound of BabyMetal, reaching that special set gets more meaning when you appreciate the effort and challenges they have made throughout their career.🦊🤘
Ahh I see you are a man of culture too, Dream Theater 😎
Babymetal has become my second favorite band in just 4 months of deep dive!
I try
BABYMETAL AND THE KAMI BAND WILL BE IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME BEFORE 2030. THE KAMI BAND IS LITERALLY THE BEST STUDIO BAND EVER IN HUMAN HISTORY. IN FACT IF THE KAMI BAND JUST DID THEIR IWN MUSIC THEY WOULD BE AS BIG AS ANYONE IN ROCK… and HAIL SUMETAL A ROCK GODDESS
they're new genre was explained by thier other songs also, if you follow thier albums from first to most recent and understand all its lyrics, you understand the whole band itself in all aspects. In short, mostly of thier albums/songs serves as diary of the band itself including their views, doubts/hesitation, hopes etc.
First lesson of Babymetal don't expect anything. The guys in the band ripped it at the beginning. Vocally Su has been one of the best vocalist from Japan for a long time. And here she is just around 16. To put it in perspective. Lovebites came out in 2017. Babymetal started around 2010 when Su was 12 and her group mates Yui and Moa (just 10 years old when they started) who were not in this video because child labor laws so they were in a built-in break during the concert. Su will also take a break and Yui and Moa would do a duo together. Despite their age when they started the name isn't about them but instead is about the type of music that started with them. Kawaii Metal. This song for the most part leaves out the Kawaii which means cute but it's a whole vibe thing in Japan. The only Kawaii left here is Su. The song as per the tittle is about a recurring nightmare. In particularly the kind where you're being chased through the night by some unknown thing. Only seeing fangs and claws reflect in the moon light. You run, you hide, it doesn't matter it finds you anyway. At this point in the song Su ask it to reveal itself before it kills her and then she falls into the darkness. And that's why the song suddenly ends. She wakes up. Remember it's a recurring nightmare. Otherwise, you know what they say if you die in your dreams you die in real life. A dark song indeed. Personally, Su's voice is like a breath of fresh air. Every band out there started to sound the same. Growly growl all through the song. It made it so it didn't matter what the lyrics were or what language it might have been. Then along comes Babymetal. I can clearly hear her beautiful voice. Huh shocking when they released their first album around 2012. Yes you read that right they formed in 2010 and it took 2 years for their first album to come out. Baymetal may have come from the Japanese music industry, but nothing was just handed to them. They had to prove themselves from the start. There are clips of them performing in the Mall. Their first full concert was at the legendary May Kan in Japan. A small club that holds around 250. They worked their way to the top. And I mean the top. Babymetal is the premier band from Japan. They have outsold and out done just about every other band from there. But Babymetal is a humble band and don't brag about themselves or what they have done. They took the Road of Resistance and paved it over for groups like Lovebites and Band Maid who have followed the tour routes of Babymetal. It's not a small thing to say No Babymetal and you would have never heard of Lovebites BandMaid or any other band from Japan except maybe the legendary band X Japan and Loudness. They've been around since the 80's. Babymetal has paid tribute to them in their concerts. As well as paid tribute to Metallica. In Babymetals eyes if you're going to go big. Go real big. Babymetal is the three girls. I can say girls because when they started that's exactly what they were. Today Su is 24 and Moa is 23. Yui is 23 as well but she officially left Babymetal in 2018. Although she stopped performing with them in 2017. All due to some health problem. No one knows what it was. One of the best things their management have done is keep these kid's private lives private. Will that continue in the future? Only the Fox god Knows as they say. Babymetal is currently working on a 4th album. I hope you continue your journey down the foxhole and into the Babymetal galaxy of music.
Last Sunday I went to see Download Festival Japan, but did not see the headliner, Dream Theater. Because I wanted to see the opening act, Band Maid, at 9:45 a.m. so did not have the energy to see Dream Theater at 8:00 p.m., huh.. 'Code Orange' was cool there among the bands I watched after BandMaid. I am actually not a metalhead, just a certain japanese jazz fusion lover. And I do not know much about Metal. But Code Orange Kids were so cool. I think LoveBites are great for back players, but I don't think I'll listen to them much.., haha, excuse me.
I am now a big fan of BABYMETAL and this fandom is filled with music lovers from all backgrounds. Please do more. Thank you from Japan!
I think I did a BandMaid reaction a while ago
Just remember SUMETAL was 15 years old when performing this so her voice is teenage high pitch…. Please react to BABYMETAL BxMxC YOUR JAW WILL DROP
😁😁😁🤘🤘🤘
I can understand the confusion if all you're used to is the hyper-masculine western metal. This isn't all spice and no flavour. This has contrast and juxtaposition.
And if you're looking for a ripping intermission with guitar solos, you'll want to check out Akatsuki: th-cam.com/video/g2372C5PJLM/w-d-xo.html
Not necessarily. I absolutely love what I've heard from LoveBites.
@@TheRealMediaMan Lovebites' style is also very traditional for female fronted bands, but they're all female. There's so much metal in Japan that deviates from the traditional western styles of metal, like Hanabie which is my current favourite band, where I'll recommend the songs Bokkuwasu, We Love Sweets and Sunrise Miso Soup. There's Ladybaby, in all their weird forms. Nemophila (nemo fila, not nemo filia) is a good bridge between the traditional and the newer, more interesting styles.
But Babymetal is in my opinion head and shoulders above the pack, since they essentially created this new wave of metal in Japan, and opened the way for so many all female metal groups and bands.
Babymetal's Akatsuki, which I linked in the first comment, is my favourite song of all time, without a doubt.
@@TheRealMediaMan Lovebites has that traditional rough and lower metal voice, but although I like Asami voice I don't like how she do pronounciation/enounciantion too much weird vibrato, for Babymetal it will take sometime to get used to but she's actually a better vocalist than all of those like Band-Maid and Lovebites with actually unique way of singing, very versatile range with great stamina (she practice singing on treadmill) and straight forward super stable
They are "The Wild Stallions". This is a completely different league from Lovebites. Try "Catch me if you can" or Awadama fever" next. They are unique and Queen Su will grow on you and no one else will compare. They play with the genre and no 2 songs are alike. Always pick a version with the Kami band intro.
Not bad for a 17 year old performing back to back nights in front of a sold out crowd of 55,000 screaming fans
Babymetal's backing band are the Kami Band and in Japanese Kami means spirit or god and so the Kamis are spirits/gods of metal risen from the dead to help Babymetal save metal and they are dressed in funeral robes...just go with it and Babymetal in general.
Rondo of Nightmare is one of the progier BM songs with it's variable time signatures and BM's producer does like Dream Theater a lot, so if you want full on Dream Theater homage listen to "Tales of the Destinies". Su is 16 in this performance and she's been singing since she was a child, so she has great vocal control and you will never hear her really forcing her voice. There are no rules that say metal needs to have "pig squeals" and as BM set out to be different and combine j-pop with metal to create kawaii metal it's easiest to leave expectations behind and just enjoy the show.
Rondo of Nightmare is one of Su's solos so you don't get to see Yui and Moa and Su is up on a lift so the choreography is more constrained. The song is one of BM's darkest and is about being chased by something through your nightmares and the uncertain time signatures are used to keep the listener off balance. The lyrics explicitly link the circularity of the rondo musical form with the repeating and seemingly unending nature of the nightmare, until it suddenly ends, maybe when you least expected it, just like the song.
The vocals will take some getting used to, but BABYMETAL is not your average metal band. She was 17 in this concert BTY!
BABYMETAL started off mixing metal & j-Pop, so you'll get a lot of songs that bounce between metal and J-POP with a strong metal influence.
After a few years (yeah, this band started around 2012 or so when the girls were like 11 & 12 or so) they started mixing Metal, J-POP and world music ... so you'll get songs that mix of Metal, J-Pop, and Thai Rap ... or Metal, J-POP and Bollywood, or many other genres of world music.
A BABYMETAL concert is like spending a whole summer going around to Metal festivals to check out the main stage bands where you get to sample all the best of the various genres of Metal, only you also get to sample J-POP (at its best, some of it is pretty average, but IMOP still better than western POP at least) and all kinds of other great world music played by incredible, best of the best, musicians and a group of young ladies that will melt your heart.
When I first got into BABYMETAL their concerts were special occasions where (and I'm not exaggerating in the least) 40 & 60 year old metal-heads could be found head-banging with their 12 & 16 year old granddaughters (and everyone in between of all ages and sexes) and everyone would be enjoying the experience.
It's a special band for sure, and I credit it with exposing me to the increadiblemusic of Japan (and Asia in general) at a time when I had given up on Western music as tired old boring nonsense. Today (after 8 years since I first found this band) I have moved more to the Rock genre (heavy metal was never my first choice even as a young person, I was more into rock) which again Japan kicks ass in (Don't know if you like Hard Rock, but if you do then Band-Maid is one incredible Rock band, especially live.)
You saying that you do not expect something like it is something bad. If everything will be only as you expect - the world will be very boring place.
This is true
It takes most 3 songs to get used to BABYMETAL. I on the other hand was hooked from the very first song I heard. Keep in mind the age of these girls when they started. over 10 years later they proved they deserve all the awards and respect they received over the years. Hopefully you continue down the Fox hole. They really are a special, unique, and talented band (kamis included).
Never have I smiled so much like an idiot while headbanging. 🤘🦊🤘
Subbed. Short version of my retirement years Babymetal saved my musical soul +-4 yrs ago and brought me to Lovebites, Band-Maid, Aldious, Doll$boxx, Mary's Blood and so many more great all female rock hard rock and metal bands from Japan.
I thought Rock had died but no it applied for a visa and moved to Japan.
Not Dream Theater, rather MESHUGGAH - Bleed. That's where the riffs and 100% of the visuals of this performance came from.
Tales Of The Destinies is a must for you, I am looking forward to it.
Interesting
Give Fleshgod Apocalypse - The Deceit or The Violation a try. The drummer will for sure impress you!
I wanted to hate babymetal cuz of the name too my friend. lol I was wrong. They are amazing in everyway. Blew my mind.
🎸🎸🦊🦊🦊🤘🤘🤘
Su is a voice people either seem to love or hate, for me personally it's the only tone I want to hear with metal now other then maybe floor.
Although this is a great song, and loved by many Babymetal fans, it is perhaps not the most representable song to start out with. This is maybe a good second or third song, to better acquaint you with the Kami band (all male), who accompanies Babymetal for their live shows. But Babymetal is technically only the vocalists, of which you only saw one here: Suzuka Nakamoto (aka Su-Metal), the lead vocalist. You also have Yui and Moa, who were not present here. If you want a song with all three, to see what you were missing, I would perhaps recommend "Road of Resistance". It's a very different beast though. Where "Rondo of Nightmare" was a prog metal waltz, "Road of Resistance" is a power metal anthem, much more like Dragonforce than Dream Theater.
When you realize how young the girls were back then, and hear how bright and cheerful the vocals are, you might think that your preconceptions were perhaps not so far off the mark. This is a weird hybrid of a band, and they are very easily dismissed as a gimmick when you first come across them. The musicians are of course world class, but many western metalheads will just dismiss the three young girls out of hand. But don't be too quick to judge. This band was not thrown together as a cynical cash grab by some producers who do not appreciate real metal music. It's actually the almost complete opposite. They were an experiment by a metalhead genius called Koba, and was an honest attempt at creating something new and original. Something that was both sweet and charming without compromising at all on the heaviness and the quality of the music. It's a deliberate provocation, meant to make you question what metal music is and can be. Like you said, it's about subverting expectations. But once you let your guard down, you will realize that the vocals actually contrast and complement the metal music in a very interesting way. It really makes perfect musical sense. It just takes some getting used to 🙂
That's what people keep saying. But I didn't pick the song. It was a paid request.
I just do what I'm told hahah
the band are all guys :)
and regarding Babymetal and its type music ... it is different ... and hopefully that's OK.
I know we all have our 'taste' or comfort zone in regards to music, but this is one thing the producer, Kobayashi Kei (himself a huge metal fan), wanted to do with metal - making/creating a new twist (flavor?) to the genre.
Thanks for the reaction!
Welcome! I'm sure everyone has given you all the information that you need to continue enjoying Babymetal.
I concur Headbanger from the Legend of 1997 concert is a good place to go next. 1997 references the year Su-Metal was born.
There is a song I tell people to watch but usually not right away. but it's a song that I say go watch when someone says Babymetal ain't metal.
From the same legend of 1997 concert the song Babymetal Death.
Enjoy😈😈😈😈😈

"Let's see what else they can do..." (c)? 😂
Well, friend, hold on, because for this you will have to review at least half of their songs.
And yes, many more times their performances on stage and the development of the plot of their songs will not go according to the scenario that you will expect.
Trust me.
Nice
Revisit this when you get some perspective, for sure. Funny place to start, I can imagine it'll ring funny in your ears at first. Onward we go!
Hey it was a paid request. I just do what I'm told
@@TheRealMediaMan no shame! Keep it up
Their songs Akatsuki and Megitsune were the songs that sold me on them. Akatsuki made me realise that what was missing in my life was delicious guitar duets and harmonies. After that I found Lovebites and was almost instantly hooked.
Queen Su, sounds and looks stunning in this video, Everything about this is amazing from the Kami band just crushing it , to Su's amazing vocals and her passion in singing the song ,down to the cinematography of the entire video is visually just next level for me.
Nice reaction and I hope you check out more of Babymetal.
Gimme chocolate is a good one :)
All metal music except this has rough vocals. LOL
It's the contrast that differentiates them. It makes them unique. It's cool if it's not for you, but if you let them, they'll wear you down. I speak from experience. xD
Lisen Road resisten Baby metal 👍
There are a few BabyMetal songs that are heavily influenced by Dream Theatre, but I think it's too early for you. Just so you know It, Mike Portnoy praised One of those as a full on prog Song 😁
Guy…. The Reaction is nice, but it could be great if you werenˋt too lazy to prepare your Vids for 15 min and google what the Text means… then you didnt have to blame yourself for not understanding the text and not knowing, why the sound is perfect for that Theme in that way..
