    Thanks for this reaction. They are always fun. 🙂
    Babymetal doesn't do filler songs, every songs has a good chunk of the fans who say it's their favorite song.
    So yes, all bangers

    Nice double reaction, thanks!
    I agree, album of the year... at least haha... And this is "just" an album... to think their strongest point is live performances... They already premiered live five of the new songs with the choreo / opening and closing numbers included.
    "Mirror Mirror" and "MAYA" are definitely two of my favorites from THE OTHER ONE.

    When you talk about 'Maya' in particular being heavy in a palatable way, I think what you get there is that it's not heavy just to be heavy. It's heavy in the places where it enhances the composition, and backs off in the spots where that's called for. And it's just brilliant songwriting.

    Nice reaction. The only dipping Babymetal does is while dancing lol. This album is a crazy ride. Which makes it a great album.

    Alan and the guys from Dicodec are good friends giving so much help understanding the composition behind the songs.
    MAYA is one of the most enigmatic for me, when you see the credits you'll know what I'm talking about. Regardless is the best track to hedoban for me.🦊🤘🔥
    The nasty riffs reminds to "Ice Nine Kills - Rainy Day", and probably some people will complain about it, just remember they got inspiration from another song that's heavily famous called Awolination - Run, used a lot of time in memes.
    The name Maya reminds me a couple of things, like certain little bee, a character from a fighting game called Killer Instinct I used to love, and of course the ancient tribe from Mexico, not sure who is Maya here, maybe the new official member, the one in the credits, new tag? OTFGK. But i find out Maya in Hindu myth is the representation of illusion (which is the theme in this song), so that might be the reference.
    Here's some official info:
    MAYA
    (ILLUSION)
    _Reality is an illusion. The truth may be a deception._
    _It is a feeling as if you wandered in between the Real World and the Virtual World. It may be magic, or it may be an illusion._
    Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this new track, i would love to see them performing live next festival, just imagine.🦊🤘🔥
    Composer: KANAMETAL, MEGMETAL
    Lyricist: MAYA-METAL
    Arranger: MEGMETAL
    [Lyrics]
    You got the power.
    You got the power, MAYA.
    Magic power.
    Magic power, MAYA.
    "Say my name."
    You are the magic. Illusion,
    "Say my name."
    If I could cast you a spell,
    "Say my name."
    It’s an illusion. I'd trick you with a fake.
    "Say my name."
    On a night dreams are broken and sparks fly,
    we could know each other
    since no end comes.
    How would you know
    the difference between
    the virtual world and
    the real world?
    Maybe what you see
    with your eyes is
    all an illusion.
    "Say my name."
    You are the magic. Illusion,
    "Say my name."
    Now that I cast you a spell,
    "Say my name."
    It’s an illusion. I'll show you a fake.
    "Say my name."
    If it's a pipe dream,
    wait till dawn even with a mere hope
    for wishes come true.
    "Say my name."
    You are the magic. Illusion,
    "Say my name."
    Once the spell is lifted,
    "Say my name."
    It’s an illusion. the fake will be gone.
    "Say my name."
    As if it was all a dream,
    smashed up into a chill morning.
    When you wake up,
    you'll find I'm gone from here.

    Mirror mirror, who's the fairest of them all?
    You got a power. Magic power. Maya. Say my name!
    So. As with Light and Darkness, the rest of this album has completely laid to rest my concerns. With the first 3 (Divine Attack, Monochrome, and Metal Kingdom), just was kinda concerned with the fact that they were all structurally similar, while still all individually amazing songs, and it felt a bit like BABYMETAL had forgone the things I love most about them (that is, genre mixing in a way totally unique to them while still creating cohesive songs that are absolutely bangers). And like L&D, Mirror Mirror and the rest of this album have completely thrown my concerns out the window of a 100 story building, smashing them like flotsam on the pavement below! I love the way this album has turned out!
    As for the songs you've gone over here...
    Mirror Mirror, as you've said, kept up that feeling of epicness, while still managing to be one of their most proggy songs to date! It really was all over the place! But that just made the choruses such a beautiful resolution, and I think the video really illustrated that wonderfully. All these chaotic images of life, coming and going in a flash like the ever changing rifts in the intro, then the tunneling effects in the lead up to the verse, taking you into the almost Gothic fairytale look of the mirrors during those verses. Really good imagery all throughout! And then you get to the chorus...and like the melodious sound you get the image of a bird soaring over tranquil water and beautiful (kinda abstract) images. And after, during the huge rest of soft strums (almost complete silence) is just a white screen with some ripple-on-the-water effects to the strumming. Beautiful. And then it takes you back through it all again! This time with those industrious images over a very industrious breakdown (kinda reminded me of Awadama Fever here)!
    Just a really fitting video! Super well done! And while I wish we'd get more true MVs in the vein of Megitsune and Karate, with such effort put into a lyric video, I'm perfectly happy with what they've given us!
    As for Maya. Magic power, Maya. As you've said, BABYMETAL have really getting down the knack of blending really heavy music into something palatable for anyone. I think I all comes down to Su's super clean and beautiful vocals. They blend over the music and bring a respite to all the heavy of the instrumentals (and I'm the sort that loves that heaviness). And yes, the writers, Koba, and/or the ladies themselves leave space for other things to soften the sound (piano, synthetic, ect.) in the music itself, I truly feel that without Su's vocal, even those things would fall short! And it goes without saying that Moa's backing vocals adds a layer that brings in lightness and fun! And they really go a long way to the overall cohesiveness of the sound that BABYMETAL always portray (that is, heavy metal blended with light and fun lol).
    I won't bring up the rest of the tracks here, but know that I'm waiting on those reactions! But, I'm my honest opinion, there is no dip!
    Kitsune dao! \m/

    You say that Babymetal have peaked? I think these girls would climb to the peak of Everest , then pile some rocks up to get that little bit higher.
    4 more songs that I think you will love, and don't forget , it's nearly 3rd member announcement time.
    See you next time.

    Welcome back to BabyMetal's metalverse 🦊🤘🌐
    Thanks for coming back reacting to this new BM single I'm pretty sure everyone was looking for and is even one of SuMetal's favorite from this album. I like the progressive metal vibes, the heavy breakdown and the existential questions.
    Here's some official info:
    Mirror Mirror
    (MIRROR)
    _Mirror, mirror on the wall...this song embodies a parallel world where the world inside the mirror and the world of reality go back and forth._
    _Is what you see in the mirror your true self or the self you wish to be?_
    I noticed some people are getting some troubles understanding the lyrics so here's the lyrics translated with some help for ya.
    Thanks for sharing this, the rest of the album tracks are already available in their own channel, so get ready for more blaster tracks.
    Btw Monochrome live version is already available at Babymetal Reactor Resource and is probably safe to react. Go check it out if you want.
    See you next time and don't forget to put your kitsune up!🦊🤘🪞
    Lyrics : THE OTHER METAL / RYU-METAL
    Music : RYU-METAL 
    Arrangement : MEGMETAL
    [Lyrics]
    MIRROR MIRROR
    Listen to my wish.
    Who's the fairest of them all?
    MIRROR MIRROR
    Make my wish come true.
    Who are you in the mirror?
    Double, double, toil and trouble.
    MIRROR
    Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
    MIRROR
    Living in the mirror, what are you looking at? Because there is no such thing as a real self, beyond illusions, beyond even yourself, into a new world, here and now
    MIRROR MIRROR
    Listen to my wish.
    Who's the worst of them all?
    MIRROR MIRROR
    Make my wish come true.
    Who are you in the mirror?
    Double, double, toil and trouble.
    MIRROR
    Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
    MIRROR
    Living in the mirror, I whisper to myself The real me doesn't exist, so beyond illusions, even myself.

    Three videos? I'm all for it!
    The Album is good so far, but I want to hear the live versions as well!
    Happy Fox Day although it was yesterday, we got a new 3rd member!🎉🎊🤘😎🤘🦊
    Now it is one of the former Avengers and not Yui. Some people are very sad about it, which I can understand, but I also want to have MOMOMETAL give it her best shot, as she worked hard to join and also her smile and stage presence fits perfectly in my humble opinion. It's like a little sister to Moa and I hope she can bring in her own style and charme to proceed in the next adventures for this group.
    Of course we'll never forget Yui, but for whatever reason she left, we'll keep her in our hearts and cheer on her succesor as those are very big shoes to fill! But it's someone from Sakura Gakuin and I hope even some people with doubts give her the benefit of doubt, to surprise them hopefully with good times in the future!
    Looking forward to your videos as you come from a different background with KPop, but it's interesting to see how they can captivate all sorts of audiences.
    Greetings from Germany!🇩🇪❤️🇬🇧❤️🇯🇵🤘🦊🤘

    Lets face it! We were all absolutely trolled for months with their slow drip releases - brilliant strategy so we'd all be thinking that they'd changed and gone more "ballad-metal" BUT Mirror Mirror, Believing, Metalizm & MAYA have throttled that perception! Hot damn this album rocks! MAYA has blown the speakers in my car!
