Three Japanese teens + heavy metal + a fox god = chaos you can't look away from.
BACK TO THE US/UK TOUR 2014 in London was a concert held on November 8, 2014, at 02 Academy Brixton in London, England.
Production
The Kami Band shreds while pre-teens command 5,000 metalheads.
Costume
Red and black tutus meet corpse paint. It works somehow.
Sound
J-pop melodies slammed into blast beats. Earworm warfare.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
BABYMETAL coined 'kawaii metal' and became the first Japanese act to chart on Billboard's Metal Albums. This 2014 show captured them at peak cultural curiosity—before the world decided if they were genius or gimmick.
The 'Kami Band' rotates members, but this London lineup featured Takayoshi Ohmura, who also plays with Marty Friedman. The musicians are sworn to anonymity and perform in white corpse paint as 'servants of the Fox God.'
