I was one of the fortunate kitsune who was able to be there for the two concerts at Makuhari Messe in Tokyo when this was recorded on the 28th and 29th of January and it was beyond spectacular. Easily the best concert I have ever been to and completely worth the long trip to Japan to see them live.
This video is from a live concert that took place last month. Although not shown in the video, all the usual band members were playing heavily. This song was played at the beginning of the gig. We all sang it loudly 😁It was so much fun. Of course the other songs were great too. SU and MOA will welcome another member at the live in Yokohama on April 1 and 2. After that, they are scheduled to tour Europe and England with SABATON from the end of April.
The Fox Gate has been open... Let the METAL KINGDOM come!🙌 -NotACult- 🦊🤘👑 Thanks for coming back with this new BM song and first official MV of this year after a long time, i was expecting more BM reactions from you after your first time hearing Monochrome, so my suggestions are still on. This is why BabyMetal have no match among any other Japanese artists, top notch worldwide. Many others are finding Game Of Thrones resemblance on this stage setup, it looks out of this world. The ten prophets are holding crosiers with "The Other One" logo which is similar to the infinite symbol "OO" and is the title of upcoming 4th album. The girls are carrying some kind of trident similar to the Spear Of Destiny or Lance Of Longinus from Evangelion series, if you know MoaMetal you know you gotta be careful with her. 🔱 Here's some official info about this song: METAL KINGDOM (THRONE) _It is a powerful anthem ushering in the beginning of a new era while also representing the power and courage to step forward into uncharted territory. The track conveys imagery of one rising powerfully from the throne of silence, with a suitable fanfare announcing this new beginning._ At the end of January at Makuhari Messe they held two great live shows returning to the stage after almost two years. and by far they meet up my expectations with this epic live performance and top notch production. SuMetal and MoaMetal showing why they're a queen and princess deserving their thrones. We were expecting this live proshot version but we'll have to wait next month for live sound. We got so many big news and announcements, a new official member is coming (most likely Momoko Okazaki and she really deserves it) next live shows in April 1st (Fox Day) when returning once again with another headlining shows at PIA ARENA MM Yokohama, after that they will join Sabaton's Europe Tour as a special guests. Also they performed with a new BM mirror unit coming from another world of this metalverse, so we're guessing maybe some of the older kawaii metal songs they don't play anymore will be back with this new unit, so stay tuned for more but like always OTFGK. You can find the official lyrics pinned in the comments but here's the lyrics translated for you in the next reply. Please keep enjoying BM songs and see you next time!🦊🤘👑
*METAL KINGDOM* lyrics: LYRICIST: Kitsune of Metal God ARRANGER: TatsuoMetal [Verse 1: Sumetal] We’re going through the passing times This world is crumbling We live while wandering A heart lost in darkness Hold me tight until dawn In that bright place Aim for tomorrow [Pre-Chorus: Moametal & Sumetal] Raise your hands to the lord Raise your voice to the world Raise your flag. Let’s be together... [Chorus: Sumetal] Stand up KINGDOM Unleash your FREEDOM Endless journey. Endless dream Wake up KINGDOM Get it, FREEDOM Raise the signal, go on without hesitation Trust your friend [Bridge: Sumetal] Negative words I don’t need a way back In that bright place Let’s live tomorrow [Pre-Chorus: Moametal & Sumetal] Raise your head to the lord. Raise your sword to the sky Raise your fists. Let’s be together... [Chorus: Sumetal] Stand up KINGDOM Unleash your FREEDOM Endless journey Endless dream Wake up KINGDOM Get it, FREEDOM Prove it Burn your life Believe in miracles [Verse 2: Sumetal] It’s the beginning song Deliver our voice Resonate, our voices Open up a new era Let it ring, it’s our voice Play it, our singing voice [Chorus: Sumetal] The sword of pledge Raise it up for tomorrow The unknown path Create it with those hands Stand up KINGDOM Unleash your FREEDOM Endless journey Endless dream Wake up KINGDOM Get it, FREEDOM It’s dawn, bathing in the light Cut through the darkness
Good reaction. Don't take the name so literally and you'll be fine - RoadRunner already explained why they chose BABYMETAL. 'Metal Kingdom' is the opening track on the album which is being released in March - so of course they used it for the epic theatrical opening number at their concerts two weeks ago - their first live shows in nearly 2 years. This was the live performance but with the studio audio - the video was released less than a week after the concerts they filmed it at, so it is understandable why it has the studio audio. We will have to wait for the DVD for the live audio. The way the stage was set up - there was an east stage where the Kami Band were and a west stage where Su started here sitting on her throne (there were 3 thrones). Joining the east and west stages was that huge walkway with the audience either side ... two front rows and both of them really long - so many people could benefit ... and on that was the moving stage which travelled along the walkway and also rose up and down. I understand Su, Moa and Momoko spent most of their time on the moving stage. They have toured the US many times - their last tour included 20 headline shows in about 15 States over the course of about 3 or 4 months in 2019 ending with a sold out arena show at the Forum in LA ... they haven't been able to tour since lockdown happened of course, but they are back now.
Good reaction. Yes, this is not for babies hehe... Actually... their name, is not about their age (although when they started in 2010 they were 12 and 11 years old so, it probably had something to do). The name was chosen for two main reasons: - To symbolize that they gave birth to a new genre of metal music (kawaii metal). - Because the writing (and pronunciation) in Japanese is very similar to the writing of "heavy metal" (and they love puns): BABYMETAL = ベビメタル (be-bi-me-ta-ru) heavy metal = ヘビメタル (he-bi-me-ta-ru) Probably their music will never be kawaii again, but they are and will always be kawaii. 😁 🤘🦊
I saw them live in 2019. (Avatar was the opening band). Their live show is not to be missed if you like their music. And the fans in light kitsune cosplay is icing on the cake. :D
You got to mention the pipes they are incredible. I love Su's vocals, not knowing what she is saying she could sing about a shopping list,and i would still just be stood there wide mouthed and jaw dropped 🤣 this was a hell of a comeback show 😁 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
Good reaction...more please!! LoL!! From what we have heard so far of the new album (only 3 song so far - officially) its a lot more Epic/Melodic sounding than their previous offerings...so if you want the hard hitting, fast pace stuff, you need to back it up a few years and check out songs like Rondo of Nightmare, Headbanger and Sis Anger. There is plenty out there to make you Jump!! Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!
Noice one👊🏽⚡️The producer and creator of Babymetal (Koba-metal) has said he named this band Babymetal because they were giving birth to a new form of metal. In Japanese the letters for Babymetal are almost identical to the letters for heavy metal. There is just a small comma that seperates the two names.

🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
Babymetal Kingdom is The best Kingdom !! !!
🌸
After almost two years, the goddess has returned.

*METAL KINGDOM* lyrics:
LYRICIST: Kitsune of Metal God
ARRANGER: TatsuoMetal
[Verse 1: Sumetal]
We’re going through the passing times
This world is crumbling
We live while wandering
A heart lost in darkness
Hold me tight until dawn
In that bright place
Aim for tomorrow
[Pre-Chorus: Moametal & Sumetal]
Raise your hands to the lord
Raise your voice to the world
Raise your flag. Let’s be together...
[Chorus: Sumetal]
Stand up KINGDOM
Unleash your FREEDOM
Endless journey. Endless dream
Wake up KINGDOM
Get it, FREEDOM
Raise the signal, go on without hesitation
Trust your friend
[Bridge: Sumetal]
Negative words
I don’t need a way back
In that bright place
Let’s live tomorrow
[Pre-Chorus: Moametal & Sumetal]
Raise your head to the lord.
Raise your sword to the sky
Raise your fists. Let’s be together...
[Chorus: Sumetal]
Stand up KINGDOM
Unleash your FREEDOM
Endless journey
Endless dream
Wake up KINGDOM
Get it, FREEDOM
Prove it Burn your life
Believe in miracles
[Verse 2: Sumetal]
It’s the beginning song
Deliver our voice
Resonate, our voices
Open up a new era
Let it ring, it’s our voice
Play it, our singing voice
[Chorus: Sumetal]
The sword of pledge
Raise it up for tomorrow
The unknown path
Create it with those hands
Stand up KINGDOM
Unleash your FREEDOM
Endless journey Endless dream
Wake up KINGDOM
Get it, FREEDOM
It’s dawn, bathing in the light
Cut through the darkness
Loving the journey ye went on throughout this clip; unbeliever to one of the faithful.... But yeah, those drums and that voice... holy shit...

bro you need to listen to kingslayer, their feat with BMTH. not sure u havent already but its amazing and certainly feels like something youd like
Dude you need to check out Divine Attack and Monochrome also from this album
Good reaction. Yes, this is not for babies hehe...
Actually... their name, is not about their age (although when they started in 2010 they were 12 and 11 years old so, it probably had something to do). The name was chosen for two main reasons:
- To symbolize that they gave birth to a new genre of metal music (kawaii metal).
- Because the writing (and pronunciation) in Japanese is very similar to the writing of "heavy metal" (and they love puns):
BABYMETAL = ベビメタル (be-bi-me-ta-ru)
heavy metal = ヘビメタル (he-bi-me-ta-ru)
Probably their music will never be kawaii again, but they are and will always be kawaii. 😁
🤘🦊

Rondo of nightmare
They actually sold out the Forum a while back. That LA crowd was nuts aha
You should hear Karate and Megitsune.... my favorite songs of Baby Metal!!!
Good reaction...more please!! LoL!!
From what we have heard so far of the new album (only 3 song so far - officially) its a lot more Epic/Melodic sounding than their previous offerings...so if you want the hard hitting, fast pace stuff, you need to back it up a few years and check out songs like Rondo of Nightmare, Headbanger and Sis Anger. There is plenty out there to make you Jump!!
Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!
If you've only listened to this and one other song, you've got a lot of fun ahead. I like catch me if you can, but just about all of it is good.
Noice one👊🏽⚡️The producer and creator of Babymetal (Koba-metal) has said he named this band Babymetal because they were giving birth to a new form of metal. In Japanese the letters for Babymetal are almost identical to the letters for heavy metal. There is just a small comma that seperates the two names.
As an American I will support metal. When Japanese metal bands come to the US. I don't like what American metal bands have become.
PLEASE listen to HEADBANGERRRRRR or MEGITSUNE!!! I AM BEGGING, they are both AMAZING
React more to babymetal mainly legend of 1997 please.... This is nothing they also do so much heavy metal songs react more please we'll be waiting. ..
