Great reaction and pop-ups. This was the Kami Band of the West (they have been ever present since April 2023) and you had all their names (two guitarists, bassist and drummer). It wasn't until the album was released in October 2019 that we found out the song title (it has a hard G, so something like Kag-e-ro-oo). They were playing it since 2018 and it was seen on a set list as 'Tattoo'. Also at that time Su-metal was performing it as a solo song and she was freestyling her dancing. When they played it in October 2019 she was no longer alone on the stage and they had added this new and, for them, more grown up choreo.
Yes this was the West Kami Band (world class musicians from the U.S.) who as of late have taken over the duties as the full-time touring band for the ladies (the East Kami Band last performed together onstage with the East Kami Band in 2022 I believe). It has been speculated that most members of the East (who were the Official Touring Band of BABYMETAL since 2012 have since retired). Three of the West Kami's are from the U.S. band Galactic Empire and all four are fairly young and like the East are completely devoted to the ladies and respect the girls talent, work ethic, discipline and high character.
Fun reaction as always, and I appreciate the pop-ups they add fun to it all, thanks for the great video! Look forward to more, they really never disappoint. This suggestion is from their first music house concert (legend I, from 2012), the song is iine (( ua-cam.com/video/4jMZIwc1e3s/v-deo.html )) - a crazy early Babymetal song and first time they performed live in a venue like this. This was from the time when they were performing at malls, borrowing clothes from family and friends to try to match on stage, the backing band was actually actors dancing while backing tracks played, they were a sub-unit of a larger idol group named Sakura Gakuin (the "heavy music club").
Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。"Kagerou" is a word having 4 syllables like Ka-ge-ro-u [kɑ･gé･ro･ʊ]. Kami (= God) Band, the musicians with virtuosity, Chris, CJ, Anthony, Clint (and other two bassists : Ryan / Matt) have been dedicating their energy to BABYMETAL's international activities (including in Japan) long and extensive enough to be called as "our" band. They are amazing knights to protect our queen and princesses. Su is singing about jealousy against someone using a metaphor of heat haze, "Kagerou". The hash emotion is shimmering from her inner blaze, and it seems to me that her emotion will not erupt but turn into magma deep down. It's scary😱 . This is the song featuring BM's heavy, dark, seductive and sultry side. The girls have grown up into ladies without doubt.
"Start! I don't know what they are singing. Wait, I seem to understand what they are singing. They must be singing English lyrics! Wait, wait, it changed back to Japanese, and I can't understand what they are singing. ... I’m not sure if they’re singing in Japanese or English now.” lol. That's how I feel. 😆😁🤣💀 Thanks for your great reaction.

Nice, great song, great reaction! Kami = “spirit/god”. So the “god, or spirits of guitar, bass, and drum” were sent to aid Babymetal, as the story goes. Also, Kami West weren’t geographically restricted. Kami East members weren’t able to play as often when Babymetal ramped up their touring so they added Kami West to assist. Since Apr 2023, Kami West became Babymetal’s sole backing band. 🤘🦊
Nice one, thanks! BABYMETAL are SU-METAL (lead vocals), MOAMETAL and MOMOMETAL (backing vocals & dance). As already said, the solos were provided by the western set of the Kami Band (well, it's actually the current set of the band since the latest performance of the eastern musicians was in January 2023). They are (in order of the solos): Chris Kelly and CJ Masciantonio (guitars), Clint Tustin (bass) and Anthony Barone (drums). The studio version of the song went initially under my radar (not much a hard rock fan and I was new to BABYMETAL back in late 2019). But then, I listened to the live version and the intro got my attention (the intro is not part of the studio recording), specially the drums section and that blastbeat in particular by Barone, using his personal signature technique: the gravity blast. "Kagerou" represents the more adult side of BABYMETAL both for the choreography and for the lyrics with a theme that is not usual for them: jealousy. This live performance from Legend-MM is amazing and I believe it speaks for itself. 🤘🦊
Remember when pronouncing the Japanese Romaji (western script/Latin script) its normally 'Consonant-vowel Consonant-vowel' so you sound out each group phonetically...sometimes there are 2 vowels. Its actually easier than English since there are no silly rules like the silent 'e'..LoL.the fun one is the "Tsu" sound..LoL!! So its, "Ka - ge - rou" Oh, and yeah,,,2 Lead guitars..and this was the Western Kami's! Hope that helps and as always.... Put your Kitsune UP!!
Unusual song for Babymetal but a great one, especially live with the Kami intro. Additional fun fact about the Western Kami band, as already mentioned three members came from the Star Wars themed cover group Galactic Empire. They already met each other in October 2018 when Galactic Empire and Sabaton were supporting acts for some Babymetal shows in Japan. During Meta Taro at the Dark Night Carnival show Chris Kelly in his Darth Vader costume and Joakim Brodén from Sabaton come on stage. Lately they had been roating the bassist, it seems Clint Tustin has other appointments so he was replaced by Ryan Neff for the Asia and US legs of the 2023 tour and most festivals this summer. Since October they have Matt Deis on bass for the tour around America.
There's only 1 Kami band and it's been like that for years. The current (American) band plays ALL of their shows regardless of what country they're in. If you're going to give facts, then make sure that they are indeed, facts. So lazy.
The facts I give are from the websites linked in the description. Don't blame me, blame the site. If the info I give is incorrect, I do apologise. I do the best I can.
@adamreacts78 you are correct at one point. There were 2 Kami bands both performed at the Legend Metal Galaxy shows both together for the last song on both nights . They had four guitarists , 2 bassists and 2 drummers and Su and Moa and all 3 of the Avengers ( backing dancers) on stage at the same time awesome to watch and hear 😁🤘🏼🦊 The song on first night was Road of Resistance and the second night Ijime Dame Zettai 👍
@@adamreacts78 Don't worry about that SirGreenDay, he is constantly spreading negativity on all Babymetal reaction videos and most of the time has no clue about the facts... Since they had the all Japanese Eastern and all US Western Kami bands parallel from 2019 to 2023 and they never met apart from what marinmetal mentions you can say they were two bands. They never mixed members of the Eastern Kamis and the Western Kamis. Since only the Fox God knows if the Eastern Kamis will come back most just stick to the term Western Kamis for the current band.

Really enjoy your reactions-and thanks Vocal. Babymetal will always leave you feeling better. They just have that effect.

Its actually easier than English since there are no silly rules like the silent 'e'..LoL.the fun one is the "Tsu" sound..LoL!!
So its, "Ka - ge - rou"
Oh, and yeah,,,2 Lead guitars..and this was the Western Kami's!
Hope that helps and as always....
