Welcome back. Great reaction. BMTH have played 'Kingslayer live, but always with BABYMETAL on backing track, these concerts in Japan around the start of November this year were their first chance to play live together. BMTH put together the four NEX_FEST events in Japan and of course asked BABYMETAL to be part of all four events. BABYMETAL played their own set at all four events and came out again to perform this song with BMTH each time. You can see they were all having a great time performing together at last - 3 years after the song was first recorded.
Welcome back man, it's been a while, hope to see you around with more BM songs. Sorry if we didn't told ya about this, you also miss SuMetal's birthday last week. This was the best 2020 collab between this two great bands and last month we finally got this collab on the stage together after so much time waiting for it. BMTH performed at Southside Festival in Germany and Hellfest Festival, there's a nice proshot version but with only BabyMetal backing track vocals, luckily now we got this amazing clip showing them sharing the same stage at Makuhari Messe during a festival called "NEX_FEST", and they did it not only once but four times in a row, everyone went bonkers with these, you can also find fancams of each night showing some different interactions at the end between Oli and the girls, SuMetal thanked to BMTH in all of them, that's the only thing i can complain about this clip but it's cool anyway. BMTH couldn't have better collab on their latest album Post Human Survival Horror, there are some others really good songs there thou but this one is just on another level. My suggestions are: "Parasite Eve" and "Teardrops", also "Ludens" from Death Stranding OST videogame. This song was produced by Mick Gordon, the same behind videogames like Doom, Wolfenstein and Prey, so you can feel the vibes here. They're friends since a very long time ago so the collab was almost naturally unavoidable. They even performed as a support band for BabyMetal and Oli praise the Fox God too (atheist, dame, zettai)🦊🤘 The instrumental intro on this song is called "Itch For The Cure" which is clearly a tribute to Linkin Park song "Cure For The Itch", and indeed it's DnB but the short animation and dialogue wasn't part of the album track, it's a reference to Metal Gear Solid videogame created by Hideo Kojima, they got another MGS tribute song called "Shadow Moses" and later in 2019 they were part of Death Stranding OST, another Hideo Kojima game. Also you can find a short documentary about the making of this song where Oli said interesting things about the method they worked with the BM team and giving multiple choice of doing this. Next suggestion: BabyMetal - MAYA live at PIA Arena MM official MV. Thanks for sharing this and see you next time.🤘🔥
FYI The initial videogame references (Metal Gear Solid, Nintendo N64, Sega Saturn) are more BMTH, who actively dabbles with the genre's music. RU-vid has a few 'Proshot' (professionally-shot footage) versions of these live collabs: namely BMTH's own live MV, & KuroKiitsuneSama's (which giggily edited fancams with the latter to give a more cyberpunk sensibility). There are 2 other enlightening videos about this song: - BMTH's short making-of clip which talked about their friendship, & how they separately recorded during the Covid period watch?v=ewY0n0k3foA - SniMetali's longer fanmade video chronology of how BMTM & BM befriended each other over the years watch?v=CRkiaerwSp8
Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。They performed REAL "Kingslayer" together 4 times in Japan. I witnessed the 2nd REAL one in Nagoya on Nov.1. That was mesmerizing 😍 and I forgot to breathe during the performance. In an interview Momometal made an interesting comment like : (1) The theme of this choreo is "collision of souls" that has an image like we throw the power multiplied by the two bands at the audience. (2) We danced with our fullest power and rigid determination thinking "We do not care no matter what happens to us after the performance" I saw the girls literally do it. (BABYMETAL did this song after their own one-hour show in the festival curated by BMTH.) The one thing worried me was the statement at the end of this song in the final show in Tokyo on Nov.4. After joyful hugs with the girls, Oli said "We are never gonna play Kingslayer without them, ever again. Just not right." I know BABYMETAL and BMTH are going to appear in the same festivals next year in USA and Europe. I look forward to seeing them preform Kingslayer together again on those occasions. But BMTH should perform this amazing and popular song even in a virtual mode without BM being actually there. (ps. I found BMTH played the "virtual" Kingslayer in the concert in Bangkok, Thai on Nov. 7 after Japan. That's good 👍)
Kingslayer is the name of the song, Bring Me The Horizon is the band. If you are interested in reacting to some live BABYMETAL performances, there are quite a few songs you haven't reacted to yet. I would recommend starting with Believing, Mirror Mirror, and Time Wave, all from the BABYMETAL Begins concerts, either Black or Clear Night. Then you can circle back around and react to songs you have listened to studio such as Monochrome, Light and Darkness.
Songs I recommend by bring me the horizon Can you feel my heart- amazing wordplay, and powerful message about mental health and addiction. Drown- great anthem type song, also deals with mental health (this song personally saved my life, as cliche as that sounds) Shadow Moses- really good energetic heavy banger. House of wolves- for the same reason as shadow Moses. Lost- this is a newer one, really good for showing their current direction. Other suggestions are doomed, teardrops, obey, dark side, amen, and it never ends. No reason in particular for those other than they’re just great songs 😂.
Subscribed. If any performance between two bands gets better than this, I could not survive it. Pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!! Love, love Su's vocals here, and I also enjoy the original with her more processed vocals as well. 🦊 🖖❤
