General BABYMETAL new album 「METAL RESISTANCE」 2016.04.01 release

[Saishu 1589]

I prefer the first album because it was more fun. Metal Resistance sound a lot more mature, but I don't listen to Babymetal for serious metal. Like it or not, Babymetal had a gimmick, and that's sorely lacking on the new album.

^yeah, but you gotta admit, there's some pretty KILLER instrumental work on this album.

Mind blown!! Enjoyed this album way more! Those instrumentals were brutally awesome!! The songs while not as catchy as the first album are more cohesive. I like this more serious direction for them. I think if they tried to stick with the catchy, cuteness of the first album, they wouldn't have done as well. These songs prove they aren't just a novelty one off act. They actually have some staying power!

 

Favorite Tracks:

Karate

SIS. ANGER (SO GOOD TO LISTEN TO DURING MUH WORKOUT!!)

From Dusk Til Dawn

Awadama Fever

Tales of the Destinies 

[Devilish_Eye 1168]

I didn't expect an album from them to be this good! Wow!

^yeah, but you gotta admit, there's some pretty KILLER instrumental work on this album.

Oh no doubt, but I miss the stylistic chaos of songs like Doki Doki Morning and 4 no Uta.
