So theres this band called BABYMETAL, and I think I've just come across the greatest thing on Earth. What happens when you cross death metal with chirpy j-pop? Well, take a listen...

 It works surprisingly well no? the 3 girls are absolutely adorable an the riffs are crushingly heavy (if you like metal that is).

Yeah, I've heard of them.

This would probably start something, but I wouldn't call this either j-rock or alt metal, or a mixture, but I'd say it's some dodgey Euro Power Metal interpretation.

*cough* just like a lot of Japanese metal music is a ripoff of European music.

The Megitsune song was disgustingly mixed - the drums sound terrible.

well the first song baby metal death and a few others on the album have some death-style vocals (by the backing band), and in terms of style....theyres a lot of influences going on on the album, trust me, theres a song with a rap(!) section that leads to a crushing death metal/metalcore style breakdown, a song that has a reggae section, and the rest is pretty much thrash guitars and blast beats. Go listen to a few of the other songs, theres a lot of thrash/death influences in the backing band.
