Great reaction. I love this song ... and contrary to what you said, most people who have said they don't like it or that it isn't one of their favourites seem to be leaning towards "it isn't heavy enough" rather than it being too heavy.
I do think it is one of their less metal style songs and is more mellow, but it is clearly deep and meaningful - and it will hit harder live with the Kami Band playing and Su and Moa's un-processed vocals.
Agree with ALL of these statements. Absolutely in love with this song 🦊❤️
I agree with you. I dont find this song very heavy at all. To me it sounds like rock if anything. Rock and pop infused. Not my favorite song, but still a good song. Its catchy :)
I think this is darker because it's about the atomic bomb. Su was born in Hiroshima, and you had the bright light, then post-apocalyptic world. After the bomb fell there was an endless black rain that fell. So the umbrellas, and Su walking around because girl with ponytail. And there was a single tree that withstood the bomb and lived, alone amidst the devastation. The Hibakujumoku. And some of Su's grandparents are Hibakusha - survivors of the bomb. And everything was covered in ash. But there's hope too. And I think that's what it's about. It seems very personal to Su, how could we not love it?
BabyMetal always brings me some different concepts and directions for metal. So every time I listen to their new songs I get excited and they never let me down. For 12 years, they have gotten better and better!
I'm coming from the pop side of music, i was never a fan of any type of metal music.
Then I discovered Babymetal. I'm not a 'hardcore' Babymetal fan although i love all of their music. I'm more of a hardcore Suzuka Nakamoto, Yui Mizuno, and Moa Kikuchi fan and love all of the work they do in any capacity. I love all their older stuff and both Divine Attack and Monochrome. I love the messages they convey with the creativity and boldness to be different, fresh, and new.
Historically, a lot of people who wanted to dismiss Babymetal used the fact that they don't, generally, write their own music/lyrics as an excuse to say that they weren't a real band. The thing that these people missed is that this fact allowed Babymetal to blend and mix all genres with metal. They don't have a band member who's stuck on one sound. Whatever mood you're in, whatever thing you're looking for... Babymetal has you covered. Su's vocals will melt your heart and Moa's smile will put it back together.
When you have songwriters and the Kamis behind what need is there for the girls to do it all. They've in the past that they can write and play instruments.
I woke up in this morning, and keep hearing this song through you guys reactions around the world. And it is bliss. Oh, it's almost time to go to work. But it's going to be a good weekend, lol.
Dark, sad, heavy, and beautiful...
😊 Good Morning!
Thanks from Japan 有難う 💛。 When I heard "Divine Attack", I thought "We (BM fans) all know this is just one of their various faces that we are going to witness from now on. Let's not be judgmental in haste." This second song has proved it, but in a more drastic way than I expected. I am now pondering on what the implication of the lyric is. 🤔
excellent content dude, I just love everything about BABYMETAL, including their maturity.
I never think off BabyMetal changing direction , i think of it as finding different directions to explore.
No two songs the same and i love them all . I watched them grow and mature to what we have now . Su's becoming an extraordinary vocalists who talents are not appropriate as much as they should be ( except by fans ) Moa also her vocals getting better with age .
The next song will be different again . 😁🤘🦊🤘
I think their only change is maturing...
@@autohmae agree 👍 😁🤘🏼🦊
her voice .... is magical
Hey man, i was waiting for more of your BM journey, what a "great" timing wanting to release your RON reaction in this moment lol
Don't worry, you got the whole next month to keep enjoying more BM songs before releasing new single next January along with the live performance.
Btw if you liked Rondo Of Nightmare then no doubt you're gonna like this new single, since the same composer is behind.
Welcome to BabyMetal's metalverse.🦊🤘🌐
After almost a month of released their new single "Divine Attack - Shingeki" marking the long time waited return, they just released another great new single "Monochrome" and is a song that expresses a fleeting hope during Ragnarok, which means "doomsday" in Norse mythology, that the starry skies will be wrapped in rainbow colors, all of this under the question which color were the monochrome fireworks lighting up in the night sky, from a children's eyes.
After hearing the lyrics a little bit and watching the umbrellas falling theme It could also be related to an historical sad moment we all know happened in Hiroshima which is also SuMetal birthplace.
They're making us sure that this song belongs to another world out of 10 in total of their metalverse. This time the theme runs around the Norse mythology and the Ragnarök event, we can also see an artwork which apparently show "Yggdrasil", the Norse tree of life, there's a lot more interesting things related to this tree but in general is representing the life and rebirth of the humankind after a moment of death and chaos, BM fans know that this a recurrent theme on BM lore and is always exciting. Another hint or hidden similarity reference with this tree could be the Aogiri tree, which is known in Hiroshima for being a symbol of peace after surviving that sad event.
I also noticed since a very long time ago they were using the _"Myth"_ title before every different title itself, so that could mean another hint over the concept of this album using different mythologies and their stories represented in each one of their songs, i heard another snippets sets and I can totally see that. In this case they're going with the Norse mythology which is very popular nowadays thanks to videogames like God Of War Ragnarok recently released, or even Attack On Titan (Shingeki No Kyojin) anime series, without giving so much details, which is also a theme many BM fans are relating to the world of "Divine Attack - Shingeki", their first single released.
The sound on this song reminds a little bit of good old hard rock ballad mixed with a touch of heavy metal and some complex drums always in contrast with beautiful SuMetal's vocals, i can also see the hands of Yuyoyuppe on this, he's the songwriter/composer/arranger behind songs like Megitsune, Rondo Of Nightmare, Karate and Kagerou. After watching the credits now there's no doubt is him behind this song, he knows his business and totally rocks.
I like how at the end the lyrics said "Just Smile" and then the colors are back.🙂
Kitsune up and see you next time 🦊🤘🌈
Those women are too good for this world. They're such a gift... What a banger this is
I love Babymetal, and I love the direction this is going! Been a fan since Karate, and loved their first album too. This is beautiful.
Great reaction, thanks!
Am I a hardcore fan? Let's say I am. 😁 I find it less heavy then other songs ("Divine Attack" for example). Also with some hard rock vibe... (not much into hard rock here). But this sounds beautifully sad and dark. Let me explain: lyrics have some obscure references to the end of the world (and also to the song "No rain no rainbow" but that's a deep reference and you will need more context so you probably need to watch its live performance from "Legend S" concert in Hiroshima, Su-metal's hometown, to fully understand it) and the video depicts nuclear blasts everywhere, a world collapsing and a post-apocalyptic scenario. Luckily they ended it in an optimistic way with the only alive tree among the destruction and the final lines: "We will illuminate the world in rainbow colors. Just smile."
Until next time!
I'm a hardcore fan and I love both songs just released!
🤘🦊🤘 I think every song they come out with. I just get emotional because of the long awaited return. So every song hits big for me, and this one just feels heavier.
The fact that SU, a native of Hiroshima, is singing this song now has a strong message of peace! The fact that SU, a native of Hiroshima, is singing this song now has a strong message of peace!
this track made me emotional ...
Been a fan since 2013 (Megitsune) and I love how BABYMETAL progress! Sometimes I miss the early Kawaii, but you have to remember that they're getting older and they can't do that anymore, personally I think they don't want to. This is the path they should go....they still have that pop feel, but heavier and darker. I can't wait for The Other One (but I want more guitar solos)
You should listen to some of their original kawaii songs performed ad Budokan 2021! This Doki Doki Morning one is my personal favorite ua-cam.com/video/10V4-xxYZS4/v-deo.html
@@c_m_h_d What I meant is, they can't write songs like that anymore...at least I don't think they will.
This is one of their best songs in their modern era.
I think Monochrome is one of their best songs - and I’m a hardcore fan!
Hell yeah man
As a fan for 8-9 years and a metalhead, I think this is lighter than much of their other stuff, but it doesn't matter, i love both new songs, divine attack took 4-5 listens before it got to me but now i love it.
This feels like Babymetal is evolving again, which means that it will be really different from what they have done before and yet will still sound like Babymetal, if you can rap your noodle around that paradoxical thought.
I think this song would make for a bagger Op to something.
Good reaction 🤙 This hits the feels hard! I think it's claimed top BM spot for me and will solidify that spot when it's done live🦊❤️
This is Babymetal, Listen to "The One" . Scared and Excited for what "The Other One" means but all here for it. Su and Moa are Legends.
Peace for everyone 🤘🦊🤘
🖤🖤🖤
Peace be with you. The more is listen and watch the more it hits home. 🙏
I don't say this lightly but I think it is their best song yet and I really love all their other stuff but this song is amazing, I really love how they are really pushing Su out front now as the amazing vocalist she is, this will be amazing live in January, I would kill to be there but I don't want to go to prison lol
Imo this song has put BABYMETAL A future inductee into ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME….. this song is a MASTERPIECE
This is what i want, I like their two singles but I'm waiting for something heavier and faster
When you listen to BABYMETAL, expect the changes of their sound. They don't stick to one sound. F the Naysayers or old fans who didn't like the changes. I love which direction they are heading ✌️
The end of the world, despair and hope, sadness and strength BABYMETAL cool! 🤘🔥🎇🔥🤘
Эта песня - райское наслаждение для ушей!
Полностью с вами согласен)
切なくなる曲。
Right now BABYMETAL HAS HIT LEGENDARY STATUS WITH THIS SONG AND DIVINE ATTACK OMG!!!! SO MUCH GOOD NEW SOUND FROM THE FUTURE ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE BABYMETAL
🤘🤘
I really like every component of this song equally; the title, lyrics, singing, instrumentals and the video. I can usually pick out my favorite parts of a song, but Monochrome is just great all around. I don't think it's their most exciting song, but it's perfect nonetheless. The only thing missing is their choreography! I can't wait to see them in April next year.
As always with Babymetal...expect the unexpected. Every song is different and this one is no exception, as I expect the next one will be.
Next song will likely drop either January 13th or 20th (12th or 19th in the USA as Japan is 13-14 hours ahead) so look for teaser the day before.
🍅💀🍅
🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
firework
Till now "Divine Attack" is super, but this song (with the means of the lyrics) is a very well done song and its catchy, and sure SU Metal is doing a fantastic Job on both songs, i love the videos also!
Knowing that Babymetal music is usually all over the place, it's too early to tell about what direction they are going in or if there even is a direction. The next song will probably be completely different. Unless..... by concept album they mean the songs will be more similar this time??
People who don't know: 🤘🥰🥳
People who know: 🥺😢😭
New single every month except december I think. So there will be a little wait for the next 1.
Как бы я не любил их песни времен Хэдбенгер, их образ тех времен, их классику (блин как бы смешно это не звучало, учитывая возраст девченок 😃) понимаю, что они должны двигаться дальше. И в музыке и в эстетике и в визуальном ряде.
PS
а новые песни мне тоже очень нравятся, просто пока не совсем могу перестроиться (так прочно засел образ классического бэбиметал)
I'm sure there new songs will grow on you but I understand I'm the same way about my favorite bands.
I LOVE this track - I kind of wonder how it made it to this album - for me it seems SO much better than most of the rest of it - except possibly Mirror Mirror
This is already becoming one of my favorite BabyMetal songs and I am looking forward to seeing it performed LIVE.
I know! I've listened to this song a few hundred times already lol I'm looking forward to seeing it live as well their shows are masterpieces
Note that the atmosphere of the planet is wiped-out by the dying star they're singing about graphically.
Maybe its my wishful thinking, but I could have SWORN I heard Yui Metal's voice in the chorus ....... Could this be a surprise return? Let me know in the comments if I am just dreaming.... 😇
After a few more listens and understanding the background, a bit more, my opinion has changed!
Initially, I thought it was a bit meh!
I was totally wrong!
Like when I first heard Elevator Girl as a throwaway, pop track and dismissed it, I didnt delve into the lyrics enough!
Now that ive taken the time, I really appreciate it, more than my first few listens.
The maturity of Su’s voice is once again taking center stage. Even the lyrics for both new tracks are more mature in their messaging. The song has a more “Rock” feel to it. The intro is going to be destroyed by Hideki & Barone.
Absolute fire.
🤘🦊🤘
I enjoyed your video! I recommend King & Prince. They are talented boy band in Japan. Pls check out “ ichiban”. Thank you from Japan❤
Thank you so much! I'm not sure if boy bands meet the criteria for this channel but I'll definitely check them out and see!
@@Killermcknight Thanks a lot 🫶
I think you misunderstood their early music after hearing Gimme Chocolate. Their early work was *both* heavier instrumentally and more pop vocally than their recent stuff. I'll assume you enjoyed the heaviness of Rondo of Nightmare as well, and that's on that same debut album as Gimme Chocolate. Monochrome for example strikes that balance beautifully, and really shows how far they've come. It might be one of my favourites despite this reaction only being my 2nd listen. That said, it's nowhere near their heaviest. Enjoyed the reaction!
BMC baby metal😄😃
17 = Q 😉
I'm a sexist prick. Can't stand it when a song kicks off with heavy guitar and drums then they are ruined by whiny female vocals. If it's a woman like Angela Gossow who never sung a girlie note in her life though. 💜
