Babymetal Talk Meeting Lady Gaga, Slayer & Their Biggest Concert Yet
In case you missed the news, Babymetal slayed in 2014. And we're not just talking about their music.
The pop/metal trio saw their self-titled debut album become the best-selling Japanese release in America, played concerts across North America and Euorpe and snagged a spot as opening act on Lady Gaga's massive Artpop tour. Not bad when you and your band mates aren't even out of high school yet.
The momentum doesn't look to be slowing down in 2015 either. Babymetal started the year with their biggest show to date: 20,000 fans came to Tokyo to see Su-metal, Yuimetal and Moametal shred the Saitama Super Arena as their gothy, cutesy characters.
While the legend of Babymetal dictates that the girls only come alive when they're summoned onstage, Fuse got the chance to talk with the band's vocalist Su-metal (via translator) after their Tokyo show. It provided a rare glimpse into the world of Babymetal that includes a heavy-duty tour life, a gang of celebrity supporters and much more.
