Great reaction, I really enjoyed your enthusiasm🤘 - "METALIZMIZUMIZUMU" - great song - Middle Eastern/Egyptian/Arabian (or similar) trance metal at its best.🤘🦊🤘
Su smashed Bollywood metal with Shanti shanti shanti, had Sabaton dancing to her euro polka beat with Oh Majinai, and now she's got Arabian/Egyptian metal with Metalizm... this is my fave so far from the new album... This is like a darker sister of Shanti Shanti, love the way she does that yodeling thing with vocals, the choreo looks a lot like Shanti Shanti Shanti too.🤘🦊🤘
Good reaction, thanks! They use here the Phrygian dominant scale which is traditionally used in Indian, Middle Eastern, Eastern European, Central Asian, and even flamenco music. Being very common in Arabic and Egyptian music. This time I believe that Middle Eastern flavor dominates. 🤘🦊
Welcome back to BabyMetal's metalverse 🦊🤘🌐 Cool to see you're back man, it's been a while since your METAL KINGDOM reaction iirc. A lot of things happened since then, so in summary some fans are enjoying this song at Sabaton's Europe Tour along with the new official member, MomoMetal and the sound of the Western Kami Band. They will come back to Europe and UK with headline tour in November, along with more shows in the US with the Babyklok Tour (a live tour joining forces with Dethklok), more festivals and shows in Asia and Australia. Here's some official info about this song: METALIZM (SMOKE) _An armored knight appears amid a smoky haze. The song features tribal rhythms interwoven with captivating melodies as if it narrates a fable-like story._ Queen SuMetal is narrating us a King's tale of the Metal Kingdom with this psytrance mixed with middle eastern, Egyptian, Arabian or whatever sound that looks so cool with the unique blend of BM. This was at BabyMetal Begins - The Other One - Clear Night live at PIA Arena MM, Yokohama, last April 2nd. This journey is fascinating and the metalverse is becoming a rollercoaster. Hope to see you with the rest of the singles and the rest of the album. Thanks for sharing this and kitsune up!🦊🤘🔥
Great reaction! The girls never cease to be incredible. Constantly evolving yet maintain the same DNA. Darwin, himself, would've abandoned his intellectual quest and just become a member of the One. 🤘🦊🎶
Arabian psytrance metal! 🕺💃🤘 You hear "metarizumuzumuzumu" repeated a lot in two sections of the song where in the official lyrics the lines are represented each time by a single "METALIZM." The katakana pronunciation of METALIZM is メタリズム/Metarizumu. Metarizumuzumuzumu = メタリズム/Metarizumu (metal rhythm) + ズムズム/zumuzumu (thrumming (e.g., with excitement)). Here are the official blurb, songwriting credits, and an unofficial fan translation of the lyrics: METALIZM (SMOKE) An armored knight appears amid a smoky haze. The song features tribal rhythms interwoven with captivating melodies as if it narrates a fable-like story. Composition: RYU-METAL, MEGMETAL Lyrics: METALIAN, RYU-METAL Arrangement: MEGMETAL [Lyrics: Unofficial English Translation] A knight from the Metal Kingdom comes over a thousand nights, magic wand in hand, accompanied by a cavalry. The King from the Metal Kingdom, wrapped in white clouds, fly high with wings spread. METALIZM A knight from the Metal Kingdom rides on a thousand winds, redrawing the map of the treasure hunt. The King from the Metal Kingdom escaped from the darkest dark to the new world lit up by the golden sunlight. METALIZM
Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。 Metalizm was premiered in the two-day shows on April 1/2 and I witnessed the both at the venue in Yokohama😍. This MV is from Day-2 when Momoko appeared as the 3rd official member, Momometal for the first time. Western (American) Kami Band did a great job in those shows. *************** In an interview [magazine PMC vol.27 page 42]: ◆ Su "This is the most chaotic song and classified as 'WTF" category in the new album. I can't explain it properly, but I would like you to listen to it as soon as possible. And I believe this song will turn into something amazing in live performance" ◆ Moa "Song itself is, of course, good, but I assume it will give you different image when you see the choreo with live sound. So I look forward to seeing how it turn out at the venue. I wonder how the audience will react to and get excited with this song? You think so, Su?" ◆ Su "Yeah! There have never been a song of this type." = Interviewer "Flavor of Middle East, isn't it?" ◆ Su "That's right. This will be a new drawer of BABYMETAL" *************** Moa is correct. Choreo on stage by Su, Moa and Momometal was mixture of seriousness, playfulness, comicalness, therefore amazingness on top of Su's fantastic vocals and intricate guitar phrases and hefty drumming by West Kamis. The new drawer is a tribute to New BABYMETAL.
👍 👍 This is from the 2nd night of their back to back sold out concerts at PIA Arena in Yokohama on April 1 & 2. It is also the first night that new official third member Momoko Okasaki wore the headset microphone for the first time ever. Now the backing vocals include Moa and Momoko. I have watched fan cam videos of LIVE footage from the European leg of their new world tour and even though the audio is just okay you can clearly hear the richer background vocals that both of them bring.
I am learning spoken Japanese. I don't think i will ever understand song lyrics. It lacks context and is too poetic. Anime is so much easier. Japanese sentences are hard too. Even if i know all the words i often don't know what the sentence means for sure.
From the time YUI left the group has seemed in a low time, without a course. The band lost a lot of the triplet of Su-Lead Su- backup or head. Moa and Yui are a duet or lead .. wherever they need to be. It makes more sense to add on a new character as far as marketing. People are used to the treo and it always seemed unbalanced as a duet. I was there the night they announced Yui was gone from babymetal. The show seemed unbalanced where they were perfection before. It worked and people liked the format. The ones that employ Babymetal and run the show mistook the ballance. They are awesome, seen them and try to keep up on it. Looks like it is more cohesive and they are in the zone. Thanks all y'all,,, Be safe ...

This song belongs at an Egyptian Vampire Rave in a Quentin Tarantino movie.

They are playing Wolverhampton in November, for anyone interested in the West Midlands 😊😊

A knight from the Metal Kingdom comes over a thousand nights,

The King from the Metal Kingdom, wrapped in white clouds,
fly high with wings spread.

A knight from the Metal Kingdom rides on a thousand winds,
redrawing the map of the treasure hunt.
The King from the Metal Kingdom escaped from the darkest dark
to the new world lit up by the golden sunlight.

that sounds like a gift from babymetal to "the one" from the middle east.
They ran out of budget at the end 😋😋😋

Seems like the Western Kami Band fits their new songs better.
