BABYMETAL - DEBUT ALBUM REVIEW!!!
Added 2025-09-01 21:20:45 +0000 UTCSo many different mixes on this album, and a few music videos I had never seen before! Also cool to hear an album before they had any features!

2025-09-30 01:50:37 +0000 UTCNice!! Their first album was definitely one of the best. Not to say the rest aren’t great, of course. It’s ~3 years apart between 1st song, Doki Doki Morning and the album release, so you can definitely tell the difference in mixing. 🤘🦊

2025-09-25 05:01:06 +0000 UTCCool album reaction, it makes you remember how good they were when they were younger, and how incredible they have become. As an example, in the past 12 months, I have seen Blink-182, Babymetal (twice), A day to Remember (twice), Slipknot, Slaughter to Prevail, Hanabie and a couple of Aussie up-and-comers. Just last night, (September 7), I added Sabaton and Amaranthe to that list. All were incredible in their own way and I would pay to see them all again. However, (just personal taste here) Babymetal are the live show standouts for me. They are so far away from the production standards of the other bands that it astounds me; even for their scaled down international tour shows. Babymetal seems to have started as an experiment and have turned into a worldwide phenomenon, it's fun to go back and reflect on where they started. I love their journey. Great reaction Jaron.

2025-09-08 12:29:58 +0000 UTCExcellent, thanks. Chronologically 'Doki Doki Morning', 'Iine', 'Headbanger' and 'Uki Uki Midnight' were all recorded when they were still with Sakura Gakuin between Oct 2010 and 2012 (I think, but may be wrong, that the first 3 of those were on SG albums). IDZ, although they had been performing it live since 2011, was the first song recorded with another record label and that they released after separating from SG in March 2013. All the other songs were recorded either in 2013 or very early 2014 in time for the album release at the end of Feb 2014. They guys waving traditional instruments round in the Megitsune video were dancers with the troupe run by the lady who did the fan dance, not Babybones that time. Yui and Moa were playing their guitars in the IDZ video every bit as much as the Babybones ever played theirs. Road of Resistance was a bonus track on the 2015 re-release of the album (along with the live Gimme Chocolate), it is actually the first track on the second album. Guitars in the studio recording for that song were being played by Herman Li and Sam Totman from DragonForce.
