Because I must inflict this upon others, I give you two singles from Babymetal, the newest project from Japan for driving people like us insane.



It's like the worst parts of nu metal and J-Pop were blended together. And if you think this one was bad, watch the other one. Just wait for the "rap" segment. You'll know it when you see it.



inb4 Japan is weird. This goes beyond "weird;" this hurts. The thing is, I like some J-Pop (mostly because I like electronic music in general), and I like heavy metal (obviously), and I even wouldn't mind if there wasn't some kind of fusion between the two, but it would MOST DEFINITELY NOT sound like this. This is just painfully bad.

Nevertheless, my opinions aside, what are your reactions?

The "Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!" chorus seems to be stuck in my head. I'd call it an earworm, but that would imply that I mind... and I don't. In fact, I welcome BABYMETAL to hang out and rock out in my brain.

First: This is not fucking metal.

Second: Goddammit, it's stuck in my head now. . . . Just like the Nyan song. . . .

Someone has already added this in the suggestions too. This is almost as bad as Metallica's Lulu. If not just as bad.

I think it is safe to say i dont like it, and that this is on the same realllyyy low level that i place asking alexandria. I do like several Japanese metal bands though.

Also the song brutal wasn't brutal.

I don't really like japanese as a language to listen to anyway, maybe it just has to grow on you but it doesnt really sound like a good singing language or at least not for their kind of tempo.

BABYMETAL and Christopher Amott.

Christopher Amott (ex-Arch Enemy) participated in the record of two BABYMETAL songs. Ijime, Dame, zettai (Nemesis Ver.) and BABYMETAL DEATH!
So the BABYMETAL is not Metal?

I'm sorry, but Chris and his music seems to me metal. I like the BABYMETAL and Arch Enemy's music. + Carcass, Death, Etc...

Hi , I just join metal storm from using facebook. So, I am trying to make a suggestion for Babymetal and I see people here "blacklisted" them is completely wrong and insulting. Babymetal is my favorite band and they play metal! Yes, they do have metal in their music because there are guitars, drums, screaming, growling and headbanging! it is METAL! duh! I demand Babymetal to be Suggested now!

To be honest, I thought that was some pretty good stuff, the second track especially ('Li Ne', i think it was called?). It's unique (J-pop and Metal, come on!), and also very catchy and enjoyable to listen to. I'll look to check some of their other stuff out.

Because: Japan.
Also, I think they (Japanese) are trolling metal fans.
