/r/BABYMETAL
Once you've heard it, you'll never unhear it. BABYMETAL is a band that you'll either love or hate.
Amuse producer Key Kobayashi delved into the unknown and fused Idol (J-Pop) and Metal, creating a sub-group of Sakura Gakuin: BABYMETAL!
Having blossomed in Japan, they exploded into the Western world after their first album release in February 2014. Going on to tour the world within just four years of their creation, they really have taken the metal scene by storm.

I really regret not adding BABYMETAL to my 'periodically check socials for tour announcements' list. I was excited when I saw that they were playing in Raleigh, but that feeling quickly passed because the only tickets available were through resellers.
Has anyone purchased a ticket for BABYMETAL before the show outside of the venue? Most of the bands I follow have a pretty 'vibrant culture' before doors open, so I've had good luck purchasing reasonably priced tickets before doors open in the past. If I go and hold up a finger do you think my chances are pretty good?

Similar movie footage as in the previous trailer, but BM's Gimme Chocolate (Heavier Trip Version) is highlighted more in the latest clip & also underscored in the Japanese press release. The news is the top viral BM tweet so far today.
Welcome to the weekly Momoko Thursday thread!
Please share and discuss anything related to Momoko Okazaki / MOMOMETAL below, old and new alike.
i'm going to the babymetal concert at the ritz in raleigh. this is my first babymetal concert, and first pit concert ever, so I'm kind of nervous about that lol. the venue is kind of small, so I'm not worried about being close to the barrier, but is there anything I should watch out for/ do to make the concert experience better? I have general admission tickets and I'm going with a friend.
sorry if this isn't posted with the right flares or whatever, I'm rarely on reddit.
Hi! I heard few times that Babymetal is like send from Fox God, but is it their full lore? Does anyone know it? (Forgive my possible mistakes, English isn't my first language)
I imagine most people here have encountered the sentiment "Babymetal is not metal", "...not real metal" or something along those lines. I know I have (I even used to be among them, until actually listening to the music), and I keep seeing them whenever concerts, festival or support on shows are announced. As fans we ofcourse know they're wrong; Babymetal is unequivocally a metal band.
But if you were to convince someone who still maintain the "not metal" stance, how would YOU approach the problem? Which songs, which videos, etc.?
Personally I know I was immediately convinced when listening to In The Name Of, Distortion and Road of Resistance, all OW which I've sneakily convinced others as well. I also think seeing videos of Headbanger (all versions) and the enormous mosh pits on Road of Resistance are a good convinced, but what do you think?

Very AC/DC, I must say.
Babymetal-relevant parts as follows...
Last week, they hit another major milestone in their career, by being announced as the opening act for BABYMETAL’s European arena tour. These will be Bambie's biggest shows to date, and will include a gig at London’s O2 Arena in May 2025.
“They’re all arenas – the only other time I’ve played an arena was the Eurovision – and even then, it was TV, so I was performing for the cameras," Bambie tells me. "It's wild. I’m so grateful, and I’m so excited.”
How did it feel when they first got the news?
“I kind of was like ‘Wha..?’” they laugh. “I was just so excited. I took a picture with them at Download – they were playing the same festival over the summer – and I turned to my manager and I said ‘I’d love to play with BABYMETAL.’ Now I am! And Poppy as well, which is awesome.”
Experiencing such major successes so suddenly could be overwhelming for an emerging artist such as Bambie Thug – but the musician keeps their head held high, staying grounded but refusing to hide behind a wall of false modesty.
Speaking about the upcoming arena tour, Bambie doesn’t feel out of place – and rightfully so: they’ve earned their spot.
“I think it’s a great line-up,” they nod. “It’s well-matched. I feel like it’s correct. It just feels great, and I’m super grateful to be opening, and supporting, and also being given yet again another lovely platform. And I think there could be a lot of crossover in fans and communities around these two artists. It’s gonna be really cool, and I get to watch them all perform each night, which is nice!”

No longer attending the ohio show! Trying to sell my ticket as soon as possible. It's priority entry.
Edit: im not doing transactions through reddit so please don't waste my time! Initial pm through reddit and moving off the site afterwards.
I might be going to their performance at the O2. So it'll be my first time seeing them live. Along with my first ever metal concert so first impression is everything. Also can't wait for Bambie Thug and Poppy either!
Heyho, i got a VIP Ticket for the 2025 show in Frankfurt, and not only is it my first Babymetal concert, but also having a vip ticket for any concert at all.
So i wonder, are there important things i should know? How was it ogranized in the past, is there a special waiting line or do i have to go to a different entry?
Already being a nervous wreck :D
Cant wait for it :')
I am soooo happy that I got tickets for the Europe tour next year and can’t wait for it 😍 Is there anyone who can describe how the concert is, what I can wear etc? Because it’s my first one and I’m so nervous 😂
Thank yooou

The torrents are starting to appear but the TS sizes are currently massive (120GB for all 3 concert parts & 50GB for Day 2 itself).
Anyway, I found an online stream source, so here you go. Cheers.
