  • BABYMETAL may not look like what you expect when you think of a metal band but don't underestimate them. They've been lauded by metal legends like Rob Zombie and Judas Preist's Rob Halford for their work fusing the worlds of Japanese idol pop and metal into something entirely new.
    FOX 5 NY spoke with Su-metal, Moametal, and Momometal about their newest album, 'The Other One', their new international tour, and their music.

    So awesome. I love that they left the parts in where Momo struggled with her words, and Su and Moa were so patient with her. They gave her a look of encouragement, she composed herself and finished what she wanted to say. It was so real and authentic. It didn't make Momo look bad. It came across as endearing and charming. She doesn't have as much experience at this as Su and Moa. But she will get better and better. I loved every minute of it ❤🦊

      You'd think, but "baby" Momoko was just really shy because she's not at all used to such interviews while Su & Moa have been doing these Western press junkets since at least 2015. Momoko is a massive goofball and chaos agent

    • @mnstpkrg_7
      @mnstpkrg_7 7 місяців тому +14

      Yes I agree! Of course she also has her own distinct traits, but some parts of her personality are a combination of Su & Moa. I think that just shows how she was destined to be in this group. She still feels nervous since this is her first video interview overseas, but I think when she gets more comfortable we will get to see more of her personality :)

    • @jaash7981
      @jaash7981 7 місяців тому +10

      ​@@mnstpkrg_7 Most definitely of course. She's just as bubbly and smiley as Moa on stage (possibly even more so, which I didn't even know was humanly possible), and she, like Su, has this kinda unique quirky personality type where she says/does things only she understands, but people around her don't really get it (ie: her comedy). I'm sure she fits extremely well into the banter they've got behind the scenes.

    It's easy to forget that Su and Moa not only have 9 years of experience on stage over Momo, but also concerning handling themselves in interviews. Su and Moa (and Yui) have all been flustered by a certain situation or question during an interview at one time in the past. Momoko now has to hit the ground running in that sense, so to speak.
    I love how Su and Moa look at her as if to say: "It's OK, relax, you've got this."

    What a nice interview. It was nice to see the ladies given a little more free reign to speak their minds. Moa’s very typically Japanese and humble answers were very nice, downplaying just how huge they are and what pioneers for female Japanese metal, and you could also say female metal, Japanese music or just the whole metal genre they have become.
    Momoko was absolutely adorable. As she’s still new to being a full member, you can see how nervous, but happy and excited she is. Her little “rabbit in the headlights” moment and the looks of support from Su and Moa was such a nice moment. Momoko is clearly everything the band needed and is a perfect fit. That’s a combination of her natural ability and personality, but also the fact that she worked her butt off to earn that role from the avenger days. She didn’t just fall into the role. She worked damn hard and became a favourite with the fans who could see the effort she was putting in. It’s fantastic to see her hard work paying off and to see her clearly having the time of her life. Go Momoko!

    I'd say, Babymetal changed mine and many other people's lives. Since NYC in 2014, my life has never been the same. The Babymetal fandom community is one of a kind and I'm honored and proud to be a part of it. From it, I've made the best friends I've ever had. We've traveled to places we never thought we'd visit. Made friends around the world! We all have this connection to what Babymetal's message is in their music. Uplifting, encouraging, happy, festive metal music that is very VERY much needed in this dark world we live in. Babymetal equals Love. Metal Love! You bring people of all ages and backgrounds together as The One. And THAT'S why we love Babymetal.

    It's an interesting perspective coming from within the industry. I really wish we got more of these days. So hearing more media exposure now is justification for all their hard work.
    Anyways my first exposure to Babymetal was actually through Takayoshi Ohmura. Who plays in Marty Friedman's band. Kinda blew my mind when i discovered this.
    That one of the Kami Band's lead guitarists has direct personnel connections to a Megadeath legend. Ladies are just full of suprises here!!

    Though I'm no big fan of Babymetal, I recognise them as important.
    Many including me got curious about the group, and searched up their stuff on UA-cam
    ..which the algorithm noticed, which lead me to other great japanese bands. First Band-maid, then Lovebites, Gacharic spin, Nemophila etc.
    It also brought me into reaction channels like Dicodec/GG, Mr Rock n' roll, Tank the tech, David Heretic etc. Often to discover new music, but also recommend... and get my daily "fix".
    So yes: I would consider Babymetal important and crucial "gatekeepers" into the Japanese Rock/metal scene. But also give a kudos to all reaction channels, who does work to bring all these excellent bands out to people.
