Babymetal has been an incredibly divisive topic in the world of metal, though I feel like the majority of hate comes from people crying "BUT THAT'S NOT METAL." To which I respond- sure it is. Why not?
The band posted this video to its Facebook page over the weekend, stating that there's going to be a new album come April 1 and a world tour! Now you can finally go see the band and have an absolute blast!
No new music from the album has surfaced just yet, though we did get to hear one new song this year that could be from it. Plus, good on the band for being able to play the 55,000 seat Tokyo Dome. Congratulations, Babymetal! Here are the tour dates:
5/04 New York, NY @ Playstation Theater
5/07 Philadelphia, PA @ Electric Factory
5/08 Concord, NC @ Monster Energy Carolina Rebellion (Festival)
5/10 Silver Spring, MD @ The Fillmore
5/11 Detroit, MI @ The Fillmore
5/13 Chicago, IL @ House of Blues
5/14 Somerset, WI @ Northern Invasion(Festival)
Anyway, that's all I have for you right now. Here's hoping we get a new song from the studio soon enough? For now, enjoy our adorable interview with the trio from last year:
