⚡ / 🔥 😱 🔥 That was a sixteen year old Su crushing that performance. She premiered the song the night before, at Budokan Red Night. Rondo is easily in my top five BABYMETAL songs. Su performed three solos that night. She did 'No Rain, No Rainbow', followed by 'Akatsuki' earlier in the set. Yui and Moa (as Black BABYMETAL) did two songs without Su ('4 no Uta' and 'Onedari Daisakusen'), and they all performed a bunch of songs together. That Black Night Budokan concert from 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 amazing Kami Band solos.
Great reaction. It's always good to have someone that can actually play an instrument or can sing and make comments. And yes! They will tour the US in November. I will see them in DC Nov. 15. 🦊
Good one, thanks! "Rondo of Nightmare" is probably their darkest song lyrically. It's about Su being trapped into an endless nightmare, without any chance to escape, where she's chased by a dark entity as she tries to run away and hide. Finally she asks the entity to reveal its real nature before giving up. It's one of Su-metal's four solo songs. Her other solos are: "Akatsuki", "No Rain No Rainbow" and "Amore". This was just the second time they performed it live (the first one was just the previous night at the same venue) and Su-metal, being 16 at the time, was standing by herself on a relatively small and elevated platform, without any safety and probably not being able so see a thing due to the spotlight. This is so freaking metal! Next one... what about a Black BABYMETAL song? (a sub-unit formed by Yui and Moa without Su). So, you can go for "Sis. Anger" (probably their heaviest song instrumentally). 🤘🦊
Great reaction. The Kami Band do get the occasional chance to show off with their instrumental intros (of course you will hear them shredding etc throughout the songs as well). This was the Kami Band of the East and the Budokan Red and Black Night concerts in March 2014 were the concerts where they became the full time support for all of BABYMETAL's live concerts. They were being phased in playing a couple of festivals and the encores in some shows for the previous 18 months. Guitarists here were Leda Cygnus and Takayoshi Ohmura. Bassist was BOH, drummer Hideki Aoyama. Other Kami Band East guitarists you will see in other live performances will be Mikio Fujioka (RIP Jan 2018) and ISAO. In 2019 the Kami Band of the West was introduced to support BABYMETAL on the lengthy foreign tours and they have been ever present for all shows since April 2023. They are guitarists Chris Kelly and CJ Masciantonio, bassists Clint Tustin or Ryan Neff and drummer Anthony Barone. The Budokan in Tokyo is a martial arts arena built for the 1964 Olympics, but is now also the most prestigious venue for concerts (think Carnegie Hall or Madison Square Garden levels of prestige). It is where all Japanese and many foreign artists aspire to play - a tiny minority ever get there. BABYMETAL became the youngest average age female band ever to headline - they sold it out 2 nights running. Su was 16, Yui and Moa were both 14. They were back at the Budokan in 2021 playing 10 concerts to celebrate their 10th anniversary. Not many vocalists would want to follow that Kami Band intro - 16 year old Su not only followed it, she took over the whole arena singing and dancing up on her raised platform. Yui and Moa were getting a break as this is one of Su's solo songs ... and yes, no pop in this one. They do everything and they mix so many different musical styles with the metal.
Glad you're enjoying Babymetal! The venue is the world-famous Budokan. It originally hosted the judo competition for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics and has since become a renowned performance arena thanks in part to its acoustics. Playing Budokan is by invitation only, so only top acts get the opportunity to perform there. The show Rondo is part of is Budokan Black Night, one of Babymetal's best shows. Can't go wrong with it! As for what's next, Road of Resistance Live in Japan feels obvious to me. It was co-written by Dragonforce's Herman Li. It's from the same time period as Rondo and shows Su-metal's incredible crowd control skills as a teenager.
One of the cameras was shaking that whole show, the editors used it for a good effect. Both guitar players played, black guitar and gold guitar, gold love his squeals. This is one of their darker songs.
Babymetal is touring 19 shows this fall in the USA!! After 11 years as a Fan, I finally have tickets to go see my First Babymetal concert on their final night of this US tour - edit: looks like a few other shows after mine, they keep adding dates - my mistake!! Long time coming but I finally get to go!!! And at one of the smaller venues of 3000 so I get to see them up close and personal!!! YES!! (Old man with a bad back, ME, is going to Die in that Mosh Pit!! LoL!) Check for tickets dude as they are sold out in all locations, so you will have to get them from 3rd party vendors at markup ($59 floor ticket cost almost $200 - after fees)..but you Can still get them..but hurry!!! More Babymetal Always!! Put your Kitsune UP!!
I will see them in October, 2024 is definitely the year for BM, got my leg injured this week so time to get heal and get ready for the mosh'sh or whatever.😅 Kitsune up!🦊🤘🔥
Great reaction. We all knew you would love this one. Fans will also appreciate that you complimented Su's performance as well, even though you were blown away by the Kami band's playing. It's great when reactors praise the Kami band, but not if they ignore or downplay the girls. Even though members of the original Japanese Kami band were in bands outside of Babymetal, they never played this hard or loud until they became Babymetal's band. They said at first they asked Koba (Babymetals creator/producer) if they should tone it down in case they overpowered the young singers voice. Koba told them to play as loud and hard as possible.
BabyMetal makes me happy and the girls are incredibly talented. Its sad that people always have to be negative about them. BabyMetal is awesome and i for one say that with my chest out and chin held high.
@@bbravo5531not a Gatekeeper myself, but there are some genres and bands that I personally can't stand, but I don't tell people they can't like what they like.
Sugoi! I'll be seeing BABYMETAL four (4) times in November; Charlotte and Raleigh, NC, Washington D.C., and Richmond, VA. Arigatou! #notacult #kawaiimetal #metalAF
Baby metal has always been backed up by some of the world’s best musicians. Here we have the Eastern Kami Band. When they started touring Europe and North America more they hired another set of musicians known as the Western Kami Band. The Western Band has taken over in the last few years. Initially the Kami Band was supposed to be anonymous. In Babymetal lore, the Fox God sent the Kami Band to protect and guide the girls. But the fans were so impressed with the band that there are now several BM videos with Kami Band intros. BM shows are so exhausting that they came up with songs that only Su sings to give Moa and Yui a time to rest. They also have a handful of songs that Yui and Moa (known as Black Babymetal) do to give Su time to rest.
What a great reaction! But this is not the end. For the next song, we will perform "Catch Me If You Can" in which the three girls performed together on the same stage. Please enjoy the solo by the Kami Band again \😃/
This is one of SU's solo songs. The specific version was supported by the east kami band. If you would like to check another solo from SU, I suggest Akatsuki , and more specifically my favorite version of "Akatsuki Budokan 2021 Live" that features the newer west kami band.
Hell yeah dude! I’m in the same boat: I hate pop music, but Babymetal is one of my favorite bands. They take the good parts of Pop and adds the best parts of metal to it for an amazing experience. Love it. Kami East is amazing, but Kami West took over as sole backing band since Apr 2023. Yes, they been touring again since last year. They did ~100 shows last year in Asia, EU (w/ Sabaton), US (w/ Dethklok), then back to EU (Headliner). This year, they’ve been in the EU festival circuit a few months ago, Asia now, and Oct/Nov tour in US. Got my tickets to see them in Nov in DC!! Suggestions: *Catch Me If You Can (Budokan 2014):* Slipknot, but cute. *BABYMETAL DEATH (Legend 1997):* An even darker song, from Dec 2013. *Metali! (Legend MM 2024):* With Kami West intro (Babymetal’s current band), and features Tom Morello on guitar solos (although he wasn’t there live). Look forward to more Babymetal! 🤘🦊
Welcome back to the Foxhole.🦊🤘🔥 Thanks for coming back with this great suggestion. As you can see this is not the usual happy BM song. It's one of the many songs composed by YuppeMetal (aka Yuyoyuppe), he's also behind Karate, Kagerou, the arrangements of Megitsune, Headbanger!! Night Of The 15 Mix (only the mix) and more new songs from latest album such Monochrome and Believing. _"Akumu No Rondo"_ (or Rondo Of Nightmare) combines not only heaviness with dark waltz and dope time signatures changes but also delicate and fragile elegance that makes you want to grab your inception kit and go to rescue this 16 yo queen from this nightmare. Temporarily title song was "Kill The Alice" so it is like Alice but instead of Wonderland she's trapped in a nightmare trying to escape and avoid some evil entity. Rondo is a musical form in which you can hear a repetitive pattern, an example of this could be the song "Blue Rondo a la Turk". The Kami Band is doing their second magnificent intro of the night with their own set called "Mischiefs Of Metal Gods". They become regular after this special live at Budokan 2014 and leaving baby-bones, from early shows, behind, shout-out to them thou. They're Takayoshi Ohmura on guitars, BOH on bass and Hideki Aoyama on drums, this time Leda Cygnus is the first guitar. This was the day (night) after the live premiere of this song and she's dancing and performing like she already did a dozen times before, totally a pro. Also she's showing some fierceness here dancing on that dangerous high mini stage with no wire and that's how she keeps winning everyone's heart. But not everything was perfect here despite their impeccable performance and sound, and the day before the girls face that dangerous challenge on the stage, taking their own revenge after coming back in 2021 to celebrate their 10 years and leaving those ghosts behind, fortunately. Like i said, YuppeMetal is the one behind this song and he took inspiration from "Protest The Hero - Bloodmeat" song, of course i recommend you to hear that blaster song. Thanks for sharing this wonderful SuMetal solo and my favorite along with "Akatsuki" (live at Budokan 2014 is another great choice) The other solos are great too and those are: - No Rain No Rainbow live at Legend S 2017, heavily blocked thou. - Amore live at Wembley Arena 2016. And of course the rest of the girls under "Black Babymetal" are enjoyable too, they're taking a break here while SuMetal is performing to come back later, so don't miss out on their other 4 songs too such: - "Onedari Daisakusen" live at Legend 1997, Gans Tomas got that clip safe to react. - "Song 4" or "4 No Uta" live at Budokan 2014. - "GJ!" live at Wembley Arena 2016 - "Sis Anger" live at Tokyo Dome 2016". Next suggestion to come back with the happy vibes and meet what they do on a traditional stage without the top notch production and lights: - Karate live at Download Festival 2016, the official MV is also cool to understand the lyrics meaning a little bit more. They already finished the Asian Tour and in October they will be at Knotfest Brazil, Argentina and Chile for the first time in South America, as well Peru with a headlining show, they will come back to the US for another tour and also Mexico will be part of that tour but this time as special guests for Slipknot, we can't wait for it. See you next time..🦊🤘🔥
Nice reaction. IMO Babymetals darkest song as it really is about a recurring nightmare. Chased through the night and all you can see is their fangs and claws flashing in the moonlight. You run and hide. It catches you anyway. That's the part of the song where Su is doing the marionette stance. you ask for it to reveal itself first and then you fall into the dark. Which is why the song ends suddenly like that as you wake from your nightmare. Only to have it again the next time you go to sleep. I gotta say I always hoped that never happened to any of them. But I'm told late night spicy food can do that to a person. The Kamiband are amazing. What do you do when you lead off with them soloing? The only thing you can do. Send Su-metal in. Her incredible talent and skill rise above the metal and still stands out even after the Kamiband solo. The ladies of Babymetal could have chosen any genre of music to sing. They choose the challenge of doing metal. And they do it like No one else. creating their own version of metal. Kawaii Metal. Really what else could it have been with these kawaii ladies singing? LOL Kawaii is a whole vibe in Japan. Basically, it is a cuteness. You know it when you see it. The Foxhole is deep and full of surprises.
Su's nightmare ballad is 💯 Its about here running away from darkness or something similar, and she finally gets caught by it. This is the original kami band (now called eastern kami band). If youd like to see the western kami band, check out more of their new album stuff like Maya pia arena live (probably the heaviest song on their new album). Monochrome live (bit slower, but intro alone 🔥). Or kagerou live (similar to this setup, band does their thing then the girls come out).
Of course they have some more popy métal songs, but most of their songs are hard as f***, like divine attack, tales of destinies, distortion, headbanger, road of resistance, mirror mirror,....
The musicians are called the "Kami Band". "Kami" means god in Japanese, and these guys are like gods of music. They are all men and are Japan's best musicians. They are wearing (at least they did until 2017/2018) burial gowns and corpse face paint because in the BABYMETAL legend/fantasy/storyline, the "Fox God" raises the musicians from the dead and calls upon them to play the music for the girls for each concert. The 3 girls have been chosen by the "Fox God" to UNITE the world through METAL. 🤘🦊🤘
The storyline gets even better. It is h Fox God who chooses his avatars who are the Kamis. So basically anyone who is in the band is considered Kami, including all musicians used in collaborations or who guest play with them. So seeing that they have had Metallica, Chad Smith, Tim Henson, Rob Halford, Galactic Empire, Bring Me the Horizon, Herman Li, and Sam Totman play with them, they are all considered Kami.
👍👍👍An awesome performance. Kami 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and the voice of an angel😇. Great reaction.🦊 🖖❤ This performance had the East Kami band. For the West Kami band: Babymetal - Kagerou (Legend MM 2024 Live) Eng Subs
Pausing half way to 🤦♂️. "The other guitarist didn't get a turn"😑 Bruh! They literally followed each other. They have different colored guitars too . Oy vey!
Great reaction, thank you! For some strange reason it doesn´t show up in my search for recent BABYMETAL reactions, so I´m a bit late here... RoN is a great showcase of what Su-Metal is capable of. We call her "Queen" for several reasons, this is one of the reasons. And one of my favourite Su-Metal solo songs 😄 Kami Band East always was phenomenal. As you mentioned Slipknot: try - Catch Me If You Can (Budokan 2014) which is including a Kami Band intro, to get some more Kami Band East, and some happy (!) horror vibes😉 Kami Band West is just as good, you could do e.g. "Kagerou w/ Kami Band intro (live at Legend MM 2024)" from the Hymnodic channel (important! Please don´t use a "ProShot" or compilation video!) to listen to them. Different playing style, very much modern US metal sound, as opposed to the more slightly British/classic metal sound of the East Kamis, but fire, too! If you get a ticket for one of their concerts in November this year, snatch it! You won´t get the big arena show like they do in Japan, but trust me: they blow the roof off every venue they play. I experienced them live in a rather small venue, 4k capacity, just a small stage and some lighting there, and it was a phenomenal show!
I think you'll like their song 'Yava', and you can do it twice as there are two videos, one with the Eastern/Japanese Kami band you see here, at Fox Festival 2017. The other is with the Western/American Kami band at Legend MM this year. The song itself is awesome, ska and metal fusion. All 8 Kami are amazing.
My good friend let me tell you that there are some 8k versions of some songs( for example this one) you can find them here on TH-cam, watch them in your own free time (the ones you’ve already watched) you’ll enjoy and love watching those 8k videos 🔥🤘
Nicely done. This is a Suzuka aka Sumetal solo so that's why the other girls aren't there. This features the original Kami Band. All Japanese top session musicians. This line up with an occasional musician switching out started playing with Babymetal back in 2012-I believe-til 2019. Then the Kami Band West took over-all North American musicians-and tour with them currently. I'd like to suggest a more recent song which also has an instrumental intro from the Western Kamis: Babymetal, Metali w/Kami intro, Legend MM live 2024 (link follows): th-cam.com/video/fxzaQAFAVl8/w-d-xo.html
Pausing a lot is a sign of a thorough reaction. I hate when reactors just watch the whole video without pausing and rewinding. We all heard the song before multiple times. We need to learn something new. Instead we’re watching faces of reactors. It’s boring. So, pause and talk as much as you want. We enjoy it. So, subscribed.
Cool reaction man, the Kami Bands are pretty wild. So you like shredding? You should try these on for size if you haven't already - A 9 year old girl YOYO (Pinxi Liu) Cover Angel Of Darkness-Andy James at: th-cam.com/video/Ey8d6plehIE/w-d-xo.html Legato Etude from Hell - Igor Paspalj - Cover by Evlee at: th-cam.com/video/LhFJpd2oZHM/w-d-xo.html
Well in fact they are 2 entities. Babymetal are the 3 girls. Then he looked in Japan for a few Session musicians for their Japanese Live concerts and perhaps a few concerts outside of Japan. But one of the important arguments was the protection of the girls. No pne would ask why Band and singers belangen together but it might take some time till one of their handlers was with them. But after they became famous in Europe and the US koba looked for US Musicians to support them in the US and Europe. But they were bearly the same age of the girls. The girls have grown up backstage, they know their crew. They need no special protection. But the Band has a much better handle that Su is the Boss. While the old Band thought that Su might help if they have trouble with Koba, but she decided that thid is for her too complicated. She might know Koba a bit better, but he is not her husband and they grew up in Europe and the US, so don't Requiere from her sophisticated behaviour of japanese housewives.For her purposes the Kami Band West is sufficient.
Lol. Nice air guitar intro. You're good at pretending to play guitar And there are 2 guitarists, and they both played solos, so IDK what you've been smoking.
To answer your question,yes they will be headlining a tour of the US starting early November in Florida. Before that they'll be touring S. America and Mexico with Slipknot as a part of Knotfest 🦊🤘
⚡ / 🔥 😱 🔥
That was a sixteen year old Su crushing that performance.
She premiered the song the night before, at Budokan Red Night.
Rondo is easily in my top five BABYMETAL songs.
Su performed three solos that night.
She did 'No Rain, No Rainbow', followed by 'Akatsuki' earlier in the set.
Yui and Moa (as Black BABYMETAL) did two songs without Su ('4 no Uta' and 'Onedari Daisakusen'), and they all performed a bunch of songs together.
That Black Night Budokan concert from 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 amazing Kami Band solos.
Great reaction. It's always good to have someone that can actually play an instrument or can sing and make comments.
And yes! They will tour the US in November. I will see them in DC Nov. 15. 🦊
This band is so awesum.. with the girls they’re Epic
Good one, thanks!
"Rondo of Nightmare" is probably their darkest song lyrically. It's about Su being trapped into an endless nightmare, without any chance to escape, where she's chased by a dark entity as she tries to run away and hide. Finally she asks the entity to reveal its real nature before giving up.
It's one of Su-metal's four solo songs. Her other solos are: "Akatsuki", "No Rain No Rainbow" and "Amore".
This was just the second time they performed it live (the first one was just the previous night at the same venue) and Su-metal, being 16 at the time, was standing by herself on a relatively small and elevated platform, without any safety and probably not being able so see a thing due to the spotlight. This is so freaking metal!
Next one... what about a Black BABYMETAL song? (a sub-unit formed by Yui and Moa without Su). So, you can go for "Sis. Anger" (probably their heaviest song instrumentally).
🤘🦊

This was the Kami Band of the East and the Budokan Red and Black Night concerts in March 2014 were the concerts where they became the full time support for all of BABYMETAL's live concerts.

The Budokan in Tokyo is a martial arts arena built for the 1964 Olympics, but is now also the most prestigious venue for concerts (think Carnegie Hall or Madison Square Garden levels of prestige). It is where all Japanese and many foreign artists aspire to play - a tiny minority ever get there.

Babymetal is touring 19 shows this fall in the USA!!
After 11 years as a Fan, I finally have tickets to go see my First Babymetal concert on their final night of this US tour - edit: looks like a few other shows after mine, they keep adding dates - my mistake!! Long time coming but I finally get to go!!! And at one of the smaller venues of 3000 so I get to see them up close and personal!!! YES!! (Old man with a bad back, ME, is going to Die in that Mosh Pit!! LoL!)
Check for tickets dude as they are sold out in all locations, so you will have to get them from 3rd party vendors at markup ($59 floor ticket cost almost $200 - after fees)..but you Can still get them..but hurry!!!
More Babymetal Always!!
Put your Kitsune UP!!
I will see them in October, 2024 is definitely the year for BM, got my leg injured this week so time to get heal and get ready for the mosh'sh or whatever.😅
Kitsune up!🦊🤘🔥
@@jakemuller8626 Wish i had more opportunities to see them but it is what it is.
Hope you heal quickly and as always...
Put your Kitsune UP!!
BOH! - God of Bass!
Great reaction. We all knew you would love this one.
Fans will also appreciate that you complimented Su's performance as well, even though you were blown away by the Kami band's playing. It's great when reactors praise the Kami band, but not if they ignore or downplay the girls.

BabyMetal makes me happy and the girls are incredibly talented.
Its sad that people always have to be negative about them.
BabyMetal is awesome and i for one say that with my chest out and chin held high.
There will always be Gatekeepers who believe in their minds that they own a genre. Ignorant!
@@bbravo5531not a Gatekeeper myself, but there are some genres and bands that I personally can't stand, but I don't tell people they can't like what they like.
All the members of "KAMI Band" during this period were the best.🥰
4:54 the camera is shacking, but my guess is it was also zoomed in, this making it seem much worse.
Budokan is a martial arts arena built for 1964 olympic games in Tokio.
Ooh Rah Devil Dog thanks for your service and more BabyMetal!
Thank and no problem!!

Im a new fan of this channel. I enjoy this reaction. Im from singapore pls do more babymetal reactions
Checkout their Tales of the Destinies live to see the skill of the Kami Band.
This is one of SU's solo songs. The specific version was supported by the east kami band. If you would like to check another solo from SU, I suggest Akatsuki , and more specifically my favorite version of "Akatsuki Budokan 2021 Live" that features the newer west kami band.
Budokan 2021 was the Kami Band of the East as well. They were still playing all the Japanese concerts until January 2023.
They started having the kami east band mask up like kami west. I assume to make it easier if someone had to be replaced.
Hell yeah dude! I’m in the same boat: I hate pop music, but Babymetal is one of my favorite bands.
They take the good parts of Pop and adds the best parts of metal to it for an amazing experience. Love it.
Kami East is amazing, but Kami West took over as sole backing band since Apr 2023.
Yes, they been touring again since last year. They did ~100 shows last year in Asia, EU (w/ Sabaton), US (w/ Dethklok), then back to EU (Headliner).
This year, they’ve been in the EU festival circuit a few months ago, Asia now, and Oct/Nov tour in US. Got my tickets to see them in Nov in DC!!
Suggestions:
*Catch Me If You Can (Budokan 2014):* Slipknot, but cute.
*BABYMETAL DEATH (Legend 1997):* An even darker song, from Dec 2013.
*Metali! (Legend MM 2024):* With Kami West intro (Babymetal’s current band), and features Tom Morello on guitar solos (although he wasn’t there live).
Look forward to more Babymetal! 🤘🦊
Welcome back to the Foxhole.🦊🤘🔥

Thanks for sharing this wonderful SuMetal solo and my favorite along with "Akatsuki" (live at Budokan 2014 is another great choice) The other solos are great too and those are:
- No Rain No Rainbow live at Legend S 2017, heavily blocked thou.
- Amore live at Wembley Arena 2016.
And of course the rest of the girls under "Black Babymetal" are enjoyable too, they're taking a break here while SuMetal is performing to come back later, so don't miss out on their other 4 songs too such:
- "Onedari Daisakusen" live at Legend 1997, Gans Tomas got that clip safe to react.
- "Song 4" or "4 No Uta" live at Budokan 2014.
- "GJ!" live at Wembley Arena 2016
- "Sis Anger" live at Tokyo Dome 2016".
Next suggestion to come back with the happy vibes and meet what they do on a traditional stage without the top notch production and lights:
- Karate live at Download Festival 2016, the official MV is also cool to understand the lyrics meaning a little bit more.
They already finished the Asian Tour and in October they will be at Knotfest Brazil, Argentina and Chile for the first time in South America, as well Peru with a headlining show, they will come back to the US for another tour and also Mexico will be part of that tour but this time as special guests for Slipknot, we can't wait for it.
See you next time..🦊🤘🔥
Nice reaction. IMO Babymetals darkest song as it really is about a recurring nightmare. Chased through the night and all you can see is their fangs and claws flashing in the moonlight. You run and hide. It catches you anyway. That's the part of the song where Su is doing the marionette stance. you ask for it to reveal itself first and then you fall into the dark. Which is why the song ends suddenly like that as you wake from your nightmare. Only to have it again the next time you go to sleep. I gotta say I always hoped that never happened to any of them. But I'm told late night spicy food can do that to a person. The Kamiband are amazing. What do you do when you lead off with them soloing? The only thing you can do. Send Su-metal in. Her incredible talent and skill rise above the metal and still stands out even after the Kamiband solo. The ladies of Babymetal could have chosen any genre of music to sing. They choose the challenge of doing metal. And they do it like No one else. creating their own version of metal. Kawaii Metal. Really what else could it have been with these kawaii ladies singing? LOL Kawaii is a whole vibe in Japan. Basically, it is a cuteness. You know it when you see it. The Foxhole is deep and full of surprises.
Another epic Kami band intro that's worth checking out is The God's intro live at Tokyo Dome. Same vibe magnify by thousands
Su's nightmare ballad is 💯
Its about here running away from darkness or something similar, and she finally gets caught by it.
This is the original kami band (now called eastern kami band). If youd like to see the western kami band, check out more of their new album stuff like
Maya pia arena live (probably the heaviest song on their new album).
Monochrome live (bit slower, but intro alone 🔥).
Or kagerou live (similar to this setup, band does their thing then the girls come out).
Of course they have some more popy métal songs, but most of their songs are hard as f***, like divine attack, tales of destinies, distortion, headbanger, road of resistance, mirror mirror,....
The musicians are called the "Kami Band". "Kami" means god in Japanese, and these guys are like gods of music. They are all men and are Japan's best musicians. They are wearing (at least they did until 2017/2018) burial gowns and corpse face paint because in the BABYMETAL legend/fantasy/storyline, the "Fox God" raises the musicians from the dead and calls upon them to play the music for the girls for each concert. The 3 girls have been chosen by the "Fox God" to UNITE the world through METAL. 🤘🦊🤘
That is an epic storyline!!
The storyline gets even better. It is h Fox God who chooses his avatars who are the Kamis. So basically anyone who is in the band is considered Kami, including all musicians used in collaborations or who guest play with them. So seeing that they have had Metallica, Chad Smith, Tim Henson, Rob Halford, Galactic Empire, Bring Me the Horizon, Herman Li, and Sam Totman play with them, they are all considered Kami.

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

[English:]
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
This song Su-Metal brings you to the dark side and tells you a story thru the journey and it enticed you.

You don't pay attention much if you didn't see the other guitarists get his solo.
Lol yeah my bad i was a bit absorbed, didnt even notice the guitar was different!
If you love watching crazy shredder playing effortlessly, you should watch "Galneryus - The Force of Courage LIVE 2015" 😅
👍👍👍An awesome performance. Kami 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and the voice of an angel😇. Great reaction.🦊 🖖❤
This performance had the East Kami band. For the West Kami band:
Babymetal - Kagerou (Legend MM 2024 Live) Eng Subs
Babymetal is straight FIRE. The kami band is amazing. But the girls equally amazing in their own right.
Nice reaction!
+ Respect
If you want to watch kami intro again try catch me if you can live in budokan 2014
Pausing half way to 🤦♂️. "The other guitarist didn't get a turn"😑 Bruh! They literally followed each other. They have different colored guitars too . Oy vey!
Haha yeah my bad, i didnt pay attention the the different guitar i realize that now, i was too excited. Thanks!
They rock!
@@Twistedshredder-HOG 🤣🤣🤣👍
Semper Fidelis Mate! & Thx for your Service & Love of Country (USA)! @@Twistedshredder-HOG
I think you would love Babymetal Death live legend 97 🦊
Great reaction, thank you! For some strange reason it doesn´t show up in my search for recent BABYMETAL reactions, so I´m a bit late here...
RoN is a great showcase of what Su-Metal is capable of. We call her "Queen" for several reasons, this is one of the reasons. And one of my favourite Su-Metal solo songs 😄
Kami Band East always was phenomenal. As you mentioned Slipknot: try
- Catch Me If You Can (Budokan 2014)
which is including a Kami Band intro, to get some more Kami Band East, and some happy (!) horror vibes😉
Kami Band West is just as good, you could do e.g. "Kagerou w/ Kami Band intro (live at Legend MM 2024)" from the Hymnodic channel (important! Please don´t use a "ProShot" or compilation video!) to listen to them. Different playing style, very much modern US metal sound, as opposed to the more slightly British/classic metal sound of the East Kamis, but fire, too!
If you get a ticket for one of their concerts in November this year, snatch it! You won´t get the big arena show like they do in Japan, but trust me: they blow the roof off every venue they play. I experienced them live in a rather small venue, 4k capacity, just a small stage and some lighting there, and it was a phenomenal show!
The camera is zoomed way in and right next to the drums that is why there is the sharing.
🤘🦊🤘
SU-METAL is an exceptional performer.
ありがとうございます❤❤💌
I think you'll like their song 'Yava', and you can do it twice as there are two videos, one with the Eastern/Japanese Kami band you see here, at Fox Festival 2017. The other is with the Western/American Kami band at Legend MM this year. The song itself is awesome, ska and metal fusion. All 8 Kami are amazing.
Love this guy who appreciates other talents at the same time he is talented himself as well
My good friend let me tell you that there are some 8k versions of some songs( for example this one) you can find them here on TH-cam, watch them in your own free time (the ones you’ve already watched) you’ll enjoy and love watching those 8k videos 🔥🤘
try out Yava from Fox Fest 2017, my favorite Kami Band intro!
November 5 stats the USA tour in Orlando
Wow. This guy is pretty good!!
Next AKATSUKI please🔥🔥
4:21 thats the cameras shaking from the bass lol
always best to do 'live' Babymetal as they arent just about music but the visuals too, choreo & costumes for a full on entertainment
🤟🔥🤟🔥🤟🔥
absolutamente increíble, insane, please more Babymetal 🥺🥺💜💜🫶🏻💜🖤🖤
Nicely done. This is a Suzuka aka Sumetal solo so that's why the other girls aren't there. This features the original Kami Band. All Japanese top session musicians. This line up with an occasional musician switching out started playing with Babymetal back in 2012-I believe-til 2019. Then the Kami Band West took over-all North American musicians-and tour with them currently. I'd like to suggest a more recent song which also has an instrumental intro from the Western Kamis: Babymetal, Metali w/Kami intro, Legend MM live 2024 (link follows): th-cam.com/video/fxzaQAFAVl8/w-d-xo.html
React to headbanger to babymetal
🤘🦊🤘
KAMIBANDだけの演奏を見たくないですか？
ギタリストが1人だけ今回のメンバーとは違いますが、その人もKAMIBANDのメンバーです。（演奏の順番、最初のギタリストが違うだけであとは同じ人達です）
KAMIBANDのメンバーは時々に応じて入れ替わる事があります。

BM KAMI Band playing Instrumental song.
The bouncing is when shots is from a camera too close of speakers. It shakes with the drum 🙂
You should just go straight for the proverbial jugular: Babymetal DEATH, from Legend 1997. React to it. Thank us later.
You won't think that one is pop!
Thanks for the reaction, if you liked the kami band, maybe you should react to babymetal death
Next babymetal akatsuki: 2021 version live
You should check out, Aldious Dominator Live Radiant A O East.
All of em got a solo. Mikio(RIP) started it off.
Another song you got to check out is...
Unlucky Morpheus Cadaver/ Revadac with sheet music...
When You see what they are doing you will be amaze.
Pausing a lot is a sign of a thorough reaction. I hate when reactors just watch the whole video without pausing and rewinding. We all heard the song before multiple times. We need to learn something new. Instead we’re watching faces of reactors. It’s boring. So, pause and talk as much as you want. We enjoy it. So, subscribed.
🍅💀🍅
🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
Like horror...
Do Aldious Sweet Temptation music video and their song Lose Control music video...Best use of the wah and trem bar in any song ever.
Foreigners only respond to ADO.
The only Japanese musicians foreigners who know more about Japan than Japanese people know are Babymetal and ADO.
See tina s dragon force.
Cool reaction man, the Kami Bands are pretty wild. So you like shredding? You should try these on for size if you haven't already - A 9 year old girl YOYO (Pinxi Liu) Cover Angel Of Darkness-Andy James at: th-cam.com/video/Ey8d6plehIE/w-d-xo.html

Well in fact they are 2 entities. Babymetal are the 3 girls. Then he looked in Japan for a few Session musicians for their Japanese Live concerts and perhaps a few concerts outside of Japan. But one of the important arguments was the protection of the girls. No pne would ask why Band and singers belangen together but it might take some time till one of their handlers was with them. But after they became famous in Europe and the US koba looked for US Musicians to support them in the US and Europe. But they were bearly the same age of the girls. The girls have grown up backstage, they know their crew. They need no special protection. But the Band has a much better handle that Su is the Boss. While the old Band thought that Su might help if they have trouble with Koba, but she decided that thid is for her too complicated. She might know Koba a bit better, but he is not her husband and they grew up in Europe and the US, so don't Requiere from her sophisticated behaviour of japanese housewives.For her purposes the Kami Band West is sufficient.
Don't Like pop...
Let me recommend EXID Night Rather than Day....
This is a pop song but the instrumentation is really compelling.
Lol. Nice air guitar intro. You're good at pretending to play guitar And there are 2 guitarists, and they both played solos, so IDK what you've been smoking.
To answer your question,yes they will be headlining a tour of the US starting early November in Florida. Before that they'll be touring S. America and Mexico with Slipknot as a part of Knotfest 🦊🤘
