BABYMETAL Announce North American Co-Headline Tour With DETHKLOK

THE BABYKLOK TOUR TO COMMENCE IN AUGUST  

The other one concept album available now  .

Japanese metal band BABYMETAL have announced a co-headline tour with DETHKLOK, the on-screen heavy metal band and stars of Adult Swim’s “Metalocalypse,” and support from virtuoso guitarist Jason Richardson. BABYMETAL’s first time back to the US since before the pandemic, the 29-date Live Nation-produced BABYKLOK TOUR will kick off August 30th in Houston, TX, hitting Atlanta, Nashville, Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, and many more (full dates below) before wrapping October 11th at Los Angeles’ YouTube Theater. The tour will support their recent, first-ever concept album, THE OTHER ONE.  

TICKETS:  Tickets will be available starting with a CITI presale (details below) beginning today at 12:00 PM ET. An artist presale will begin at 1:00 PM local time and include VIP package options for both artists. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on sale beginning Friday, April 14 at 10:00 AM local time. More information is available at thebabykloktour.com .

Last year BABYMETAL was “sealed” from the world after a successful 10-year journey. In April 2022, THE OTHER ONE restoration project began to recover the BABYMETAL we never knew existed within a virtual world called the METALVERSE. A total of 10 songs were discovered within THE OTHER ONE restoration project, with each song representing a unique theme based on 10 separate parallel worlds that they have discovered.  

On the heels of the tour announcement comes the news of the long-awaited return of Adult Swim’s favorite heavy metal adventure, “Metalocalypse.” In addition to DETHKLOK hitting the road, a full-length original film, written and directed by Brendon Small, “Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar ,” a companion soundtrack and “Dethalbum IV” will also arrive this year.

Tours most with, live reviews.

Here is a riddle for you all to consider: What is cute as a basket of puppies, addictive as a bag of chocolates, and as entertaining as a Chinese finger trap (maybe even more). The answer is BABYMETAL.

I was referred to their YouTube channel by a friend. Then the magic truly began. I was watching their music videos day and night, (in a non-creepy way, considering SU-METAL is older than me by a lot) and then I was compelled to learn Japanese, which in my mind is serious dedication. I then continued to watch their lives on YouTube (most in horrible quality), reviews, and dance covers made by other fans. I am glad I am not the only stalker on the Internet. I then asked myself a question: "It would TOTALLY be worth it to go to one of these, right?" I then begged my relative who lives abroad to let me go to the BABYMETAL birthday celebration of YUI-METAL in Paris, and later MOA-METAL's in Cologne.

I completely blew all of my summer's spending money, but to me, nothing was more worth the money than to see those girls and Kami-Band in the live performance.

When I finally got to the floor of both of those theatres, I had a huge adrenaline spike. It was hard for me to even breathe. The music fusion of J-Pop and Metal, the in-sync-ness of the whole experience, the fans. It was too much to absorb. I would recommend the BABYMETAL experience to anyone who wants to go on a fox-ride of an adventure, like the one I am experiencing now. But to put it shortly, I'll say this: BABYMETAL is coming. And you are next.

Report as inappropriate

I'm a huge fan of BABYMETAL and was looking forward to the show. Although the quality of their actual performance was pretty good, I took issue with a few things that night. First of all, the line to get into the venue (Regency Ballroom) was over three blocks long and it moved very slowly. It took us over an hour to get inside. Fortunately, we got in a few minutes before the show started, but the place was very crowded (it was sold out) and difficult to see the stage. My girlfriend is only 5'2" tall, and she could not see the band at all. They should raise the stage a bit to help with this problem. It did not help that the ventilation is quite poor--it got very hot and stuffy with all those hundreds of people. It felt like a health hazard! Not fun to stand around in all night! The show itself was only about an hour and a half, which is short in my opinion, especially since there was no warm up band. They never played some of my favorite songs as a result. They did one encore. I had never been to the Regency Ballroom, and I don't think I will go back unless they improve some of the things I mentioned. The next time I see BABYMETAL, I will be more choosy about the venue!

This was my first time seeing Babymetal. Our Tucson, Arizona show was decent, and I was very excited to see the act. However, I felt a little underwhelmed when the show was over. I think my biggest complaint was the set length. The set list was only about an hour long. At the end, they just left the stage. No encore, no "we love you guys, Tucson is the best!", nothing. The crowd stayed around for a minute, wondering, "is this really it?" I kinda felt jipped. The saving grace for the event was the opening act. I'd never heard of Avatar before this show, and I didn't YouTube any of their music prior to the show. I thought they were a little silly at first, with the outfits and face paint and voice style and everything, but in the end, I enjoyed Avatar a lot. Sadly, more than the Babymetal act. Would I see Babymetal again? Yes, but I'd be going in with lowered expectations. Would I see Avatar again? Absolutely, and with deserved high expectations.

A great show!!

It was far from flawless, there were sound problems throughout the night and it seemed to take the sound engineer a while to sort the levels out but as a show it was spectacular with a walkway from the main stage to a separate small stage in the middle of the floor. The lighting was on a huge scale, reminiscent of the likes of AC/DC and Iron Maiden, with plenty of Rammstein-esque pyrotechnics.

The audience were a complete mix, from metal-heads and J-pop lovers and everything in between with an age range of five to 75 and from many nationalities. I counted at least 10 different national flags!! The one thing most noticeable, though, was that everyone was there to enjoy themselves and it was evident from the Kami Band as well as the girls themselves. At the end of the last song, Road to Resistance, all three seemed reluctant to finally leave the stage.

For an evening of pure fun and enjoyment Babymetal are very hard to beat.

Sold out/general admission so we were almost 2 hours early (to have dinner and get in line). But the line was already around the entire building. There was the craziest diversity: anime girls in full costume followed by tattooed death metal guys in Megadeth t-shirts followed by conservative Asian dad with 6 year old girl in pigtails and then the wife and I (who just had to see it in person after seeing their videos on youtube). The people watching was great. It turned out to be a real high octane show that fully held my attention the entire time. It was worth our time. The band kicks ass. The girls are amazing. It was unlike anything we have ever seen. Great time.

First time I'd been privileged enough to see the girls perform, when they were dancing in front of the red wall, just blew my mind took me back a long time to bands back in the 70s/80s. Wembley is a great place because although so many other fans there, you still felt really close to the girls which added to the memory. The four men playing the instruments were the work force making the girls what they are brilliant...dazed after the concert was over, I only had about 60, miles to drive, I forgot the route it took us nearly 2, hours or more to get home, but didn't we all remained entranced by the sound & sights in front of that redwall

So the Babymetal concert was a fantastic show. The songs, the choreography, the lightshow, all were brilliant. I didn't even really mind the addition of two new dancers that much. The Kami Band was of course excellent.

However, missing one member of the original line-up (Yui) made the show feel distinctly un-Babymetal-like. The 'kawaii' that made the act so endearing in the first place is missing without the trio of girls. Not that they can't be allowed to grow up, but they're a team, and the interaction of the three of them is noticably missing.

Overall, very worth the trouble to see. Just...different from earlier Babymetal.

All of the videos I've seen for Babymetal are good, but they don't do the band justice. The girls are great, full of energy and put on an awesome show, and the guys playing the instruments are very talented as well.

It was a very heavy, intense concert.

The only downside to my experience was I picked a bad place to stand and had a hard time seeing them. But that was my own fault. When you go to their show, you definitely want to be able to see them while they're performing.

I would highly recommend everybody see Babymetal live. I know I'll be eagerly waiting for their next tour!

Stunning, amazing, breathtaking... I don't know which word to use to describe it the best. Such a great and professional performance from Babymetal, I just can't praise them enough. The feel you get from seeing them perform in person has a completely different vibe to it than just listening to them on Youtube. Everyone in crowd was going wild, everyone there shared the same love for the band and that made it even better!

Fantastic show! The lead singer is a pretty good singer and does NOT lip synch! The girls are fun to watch and full of energy.The backing metal band is spectacular!

It was great to see a wider variety of fans than at a standard metal show. I also loved seeing all the standard fans embracing such a novel idea.

Would definitely see them again!

BABYMETAL announce North American tour with Dethklok

BABYMETAL and Dethklok are joining forces for a 29-date tour of North America this autumn.

Just days before BABYMETAL make their return to the UK with Swedish battle metallers Sabaton , the Japanese trio have announced a lengthy tour of the United States with the mighty Dethklok .

Named the – you guessed it – BABYKLOK Tour, the Japanese sensations (and stars of Kerrang!'s spring issue ) will hit the road with the stars of Adult Swim's Metalocalypse starting this August in Houston, Texas, and rounding off in Los Angeles, California, in October.

The tour comes in the wake of BABYMETAL releasing their fourth full-length THE OTHER ONE , while Dethklok will be releasing a new feature-length movie and album later this year.

“It’s very surreal having so much new Metalocalypse and Dethklok this year with the trifecta of the tour, movie and album,” says creator Brendon Small. “I’m so excited to get on the road with the powerful BABYMETAL, and to celebrate all the hard work that team Metalocalypse and Dethklok put in over the last two years and beyond!”

Earlier this month, BABYMETAL announced the addition of a new third member, Momoko Okazaki , who will go by the name of Momometal .

Okazaki had been a member of BABYMETAL 's trio of backup dancers (along with Kano Fujihira and Riho Sayashi ),known as " Avengers ", since 2019, following the departure of one of BABYMETAL 's original members, Yuimetal , in October 2018.

Momoko 's addition to BABYMETAL was announced during the band's show at the Pia Arena MM in Okazaki, Japan.

Momoko was once a member of SAKURA GAKUIN and participated in South Korean reality TV show "Girls Planet 999" as a contestant. However, the singer left the series after the show's first elimination round.

In 2018, BABYMETAL announced the departure of Yuimetal , who was formerly one of the members of the Japanese group's core trio. She exited the band, explaining in a statement that she would go on to pursue a solo career as Mizuno Yu .

BABYMETAL was formed in 2010. Their mission was to unify the world through heavy metal by creating a fusion of heavy metal and the Japanese pop genre. Their music contains a stunning mix of electronic pop, a pinch of alternative and industrial rock, and is leveled up by fast-driven heavy metal. Their live shows are ground-breaking and epic visual as well as sound performances. BABYMETAL continued to travel the path of metal with the international release of their three albums, telling the story of the mighty Fox God and his brave metal warriors.

A book about the first ten years of BABYMETAL , "Bessatsu Kadokawa Souryoku Tokushuu" , was released in Japan in October 2020. It contains a long interview with Su-metal and Moametal as well as never-before-heard stories from band producer Kobametal from BABYMETAL 's decade-long history, photos taken from live shows, a discussion between Demon Kakka and Kobametal , and much more.

BABYMETAL 's latest concept album "The Other One" , was released on March 24.

On the heels of the tour announcement comes the news of the long-awaited return of "Metalocalypse" . In addition to DETHKLOK hitting the road, a full-length original film, written and directed by DETHKLOK 's Brendon Small , "Metalocalypse: Army Of The Doomstar" , a companion soundtrack and "Dethalbum IV" will also arrive this year.

"It's very surreal having so much new 'Metalocalypse' and DETHKLOK this year with the trifecta of the tour, movie and album," said Small . "I'm so excited to get on the road with the powerful BABYMETAL , and to celebrate all the hard work that team 'Metalocalypse' and DETHKLOK put in over the last two years and beyond."

The "Babyklok" tour will also include appearances at Blue Ridge Rock Festival in Alton, Virginia (September 10), Louder Than Life in Louisville, Kentucky (September 23) and Aftershock in Sacramento, California (October 7).

"Metalocalypse: Army Of The Doomstar" was written and directed by Small and produced by Titmouse , Adult Swim and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment . The film stars Small , Tommy Blacha , Victor Brandt ("Metalocalypse"), Stephen "Thundercat" Bruner (Grammy Award-winning musician), King Diamond (KING DIAMOND, MERCYFUL FATE), Mark Hamill ("Batman: The Animated Series", "The Machine"), Kirk Hammett (METALLICA), Jon Hamm ("Confess, Fletch", "Top Gun: Maverick"), Scott Ian (ANTHRAX), Amy Lee (EVANESCENCE), Malcolm McDowell ("A Clockwork Orange"), Juliet Mills ("Passions"), Laraine Newman ("Saturday Night Live"), Raya Yarbrough ("Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem - A Klok Opera"),and Livia Zita (King Diamond's wife and 2022 winner of Society Of Voice Arts And Sciences Award).

The all-new animated movie begins after the heroic rescue of Toki Wartooth ; DETHKLOK frontman Nathan Explosion finds himself traumatized in a brutal professional and romantic flat-spin, all while he is tasked with fulfilling the prophecy and confronting the ultimate songwriting challenge to save the planet. Can Nathan Explosion look beyond his brutally damaged ego to save his band, stop the Metalocalypse, and finally face the ultimate evil: Salacia ?

As a special highlight, fans can also anticipate the release of two full-length albums this year. WaterTower Music will release both the film soundtrack, "Metalocalypse: Army Of The Doomstar (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)" as well as "Dethalbum IV" around the launch of the film. Meanwhile, fans can summon DETHKLOK by streaming the "Metalocalypse: Dethklok Complete Collection" playlists.

"Metalocalypse" originally premiered in 2006 on Adult Swim and was created by Small and Blacha .

The BABYMETAL World Tour 2023 – 2024 Final Will Be LEGEND 43 In Okinawa In March

Published by babymetal news on january 5, 2024 january 5, 2024.

BABYMETAL has finally announced their for-so-long teased World Tour Final. A surprise to many, it will be held in in the southwestern tip of the Japanese archipelago in Okinawa, where BABYMETAL perform for the first time!

For many the venue selected by BABYMETAL is quite a surprise, since it’s quite small for a BABYMETAL tour final at this stage, with a capacity of only 5,000. It’s also especially odd that they chose one located so far from the Japanese central island of Honshu. The the last time they played a headline show in Japan, but outside of Honshu, was back in 2015 in Fukuoka.

The ticket sales will be as usual, first for THE ONE members (though it’s required to be a member of both THE ONE 2023 and 2024), then open to all. This time they also have special “43 tickets”, for those under the age of 22.

We had already been teased before after ads started running on TV in Okinawa after New Year’s with the BABYMETAL members appearing.

Full info below.

Okinawa TV Ad

Before being officially announced on the BABYMETAL website and their social media, an ad had played on TV in Okinawa on January 1st.

Meaning of Shisa (43)

Regarding the meaning for 43: 4 in Japanese could be said as “shi” or “yon”, and 3 can be said as “san”, so it’s a play on words by putting them together.

Also, “Shisa” is a traditional Ryukyuan cultural artifact and decoration derived from Chinese guardian lions, often seen in similar pairs, resembling a cross between a lion and a dog, from Okinawan mythology. Shisa are wards, believed to protect from some evils.

Wikipedia about Shisa with more information.

Also notice on the “Fox Shisa” on the poster, their “beard/mane” you can see the letters: MM / S / M (Momo / Su / Moa)
