Maybe you'll get to see her on stage at like, Broadway or something.

Also, rewatching the early LoGiRLs and being in a pure state of happiness and contentedness whenever Yui spoke or the camera showed her...

I dont want to think how I would react to Su doing LoGiRL... I'd probably turn into a being made up of solely energy and dissipating into the universe as pure joy.

How many times does the average japanese girls/women use "kawaii" in their life time?

BM seems to be not bothering about expanding their fanbase in Japan.

>They just want to make "The One" members beggars.

>>13549718
Their fanbase is already large enough that they have to hold lotteries for their concert tickets.

Did you not see how many of their fans showed up at MetRock?

>>13549718
How else could they possibly expand their fanbase? Going full-idol and having hamburger-eating contests?

>>13549734
>Their fanbase is already large enough that they have to hold lotteries for their concert tickets

The day when BM sell at least 200k albums. They just targeting their fanbase only and general people never going to know them.

Japanese generally love to attend concerts and festivals. Popular western singers and some Kpop groups can fill easily fill more than BM even though they don't understand the songs or language.

>BM fans are more delusional than Kpop fans.

>>13549807
>The day when BM sell at least 200k albums.

They were officially certified Gold by the RIAJ in December, so that's not too far off.

>They just targeting their fanbase only and general people never going to know them.

That's why they toured outside of Japan, in Western metal & rock festivals, going to Mexico, releasing promotional videos for each country and city that they toured in, getting international distribution for they physical album, even opening for Lady Gaga.

What were the top selling albums of Japan last year?

excluding handshake tickets

>>13549807
What's the problem? Why would they need to appeal to the average joe normalfag when they have thousands upon thousands of dedicated fans who support them?

The core fans are buying enough of their merchandise that makes Babymetal very profitable without needing to pander to the casuals who will just watch them on youtube and pirate their album anyway.

Thoughts on Notsu Yunano changing her artist name to Hojo Yunano?

>>13549915

The Japanese get more advantages like exclusive concerts and earlier pre-order of tickets. If you're not planning on going to Japan for their concerts all you're getting is access to exclusive merchandise. The fanclubs are yearly subscriptions so you kind of missed out on 5/12 months of it. I already am a member and if I was in your position I wouldn't think twice about buying my membership shirt and code.

Babymetal is fake as shit, and it sucks.
I mean, there are actually really good Japanese metal bands with cute girls and female vocals. Babymetal is so fucking forced, and it only appeals to weeaboos.

You know what it reminds me of? Twisted sister. That band wasnt even a real metal band, it was just some kike shit pushed by some kike frontman trying to act like they're actually genuine and then taking a bunch of spotlight.

>teeehee but they're just like my ayy kayy bee foty-eito~

/jp/ is not the place for Japanese music, it's the place for otaku-related activities like touhou, idols, and so forth.

>>13553676
Otaku is an umbrella term for people with obsessive interests, it's doesn't just have to be 2D moe girls with cat ears or whatever. Metalheads are some of the most obsessive people ever when it comes to their music & culture. Plus this board is more about general Japanese in general, there's always threads about music, food, the language, pictures of daily life in Japan, Japanese bird making spaghetti, etc.

Otherwise this would've been banned and moved to /mu/ 90+ threads ago.

What year did you get that translated comment from?

In any case: they sing live and have a full band, they don't play at Idol festivals, they don't have handshake events, they don't go on silly TV shows and blow cicadas into each other's throats, even Koba himself said that he wants to distance himself from the idol world as much as possible

>>13553746
Metal isn't Idol? Agreed.

>tfw babymetal are the platypuses of the music industry

>that moment when you'll have to explain to your family that you'll never try to get another girlfriend because you've seen the most perfect girl in the world and would rather be alone than be with anyone else but her.

If only I could get them to experience those few seconds of eye contact at Brixton and her smile... I wouldn't even have to explain myself then.

>>13553782
>But the music they make is not Metal.

How is it not metal? Double bass drum, palm muted electric guitars with solos & distortion, it is quite literally metal.

Just because it has a few elements from other genres mixed in doesn't make it not metal. Mixing rum and coke doesn't make it an non-alcoholic drink.

>>13553802
I'm pretty sure that Koba is more of an authority on what the group is rather than Su who just sings the songs written for her.

It was more just of a cultural reference point, most people know about idol culture in Japan so a quick way to describe it would be Idol+Metal, even though they really aren't Idols.

>>13553806
Some of them are "open minded enough to listen this 'new form of metal'" but to lolfuckyouweebscum to accept that they are listening something with idol in it.

>Just because it has a few elements from other genres mixed in doesn't make it not metal. Mixing rum and coke doesn't make it an non-alcoholic drink.

Indeed. I agree that its not metal but just a mix of styles.
So Japanese music, and not real North American or European metal.

k.

Why the hell one want BM to be a generic and sad metal band?

No Idol, No Babymetal

>>13553827
>on what the group is
What is BM?

>>13553849
That's not what I said at all. I said it's metal mixed with other musical styles, but it's still metal.

There's black metal, death metal, power metal, folk metal, rap-metal, stoner metal, metalcore, symphonic blackened death metal, thrash metal, industrial metal, glam metal, etc. Those are also metal mixed with other musical genres & elements.

This is just another evolution of metal

>>13553855
>they will never get rid of yui and moa!

The difference is that those other things that you listed are good. What good would come out them getting rid of the most important stage presence and 2/3 of the vocalists?

>>13553872
>This is just another evolution of metal
Some little kids jumping on the stage...Evolution?
Hahahahaha.....sorry...but thats why al the Metal heads from over the world really have to laugh about. its not Loudness you know, but some little kids that are getting plugged by a music corporation like Sony.

>>13553905
Then why did they successfully play at all of those metal festivals since last year and get support from some of the biggest metal bands ever from Napalm Death to Carcass to Judas Priest?

>>13553930
Because Sony paid for it.

>>13553884
>What good would come out them getting rid of the most important stage presence and 2/3 of the vocalists?

2/3 of the vocalists don't carry 2/3 of the vocals, and just having girls for pervs to gawk at and hardly sing is a relic of mega idol groups. so don't be too surprised when koba's next step in making them real metal is to stop pandering to pedos/otakus by removing 'the most important stage presence'.

>>13553940
And yes they are cute.
And there for we like to see them

>>13553940
>Because Sony paid for it.

They didn't pay for the support ofr the people at those festivals.

If what you said was true, that the metal world laughs at them, they would've been booed off stage every single time but that never happened. The crowds there loved them.

>>13553946
>2/3 of the vocalists don't carry 2/3 of the vocals

Depends on the song. Some songs like 4 no uta and onedari daisakusen are entirely Yui & Moa, the verse in Gimme Chocolate is just them as well. Even when they're not carrying the vocals, the dance routine is all them and that's a huge defining aspect of Babymetal live.

>girls for pervs to gawk at
>stop pandering to pedos/otakus

Those people will perv over any girl that isn't dressed up like pic related. Removing Yui & Moa would take away from Babymetal, not add anything.

>metalfags never get tired of worrying about metal.
>idolfags never get tired of cuties

Who is more happy between them?

Metal heads are very tolerant people.

We just know that we should not take them to seriously.

I'd never want BM to split but I wouldn't be terribly disappointed if Su went solo because I'd love to see Black Babymetal become a full-fledged group. I at least want yuimoa to become more involved in vocals and have at least one offical solo song each.

The World Tour footage is the Mukahari Messe full concert (1:22:42), and 6 other concert concert locations which only constitute 00:10:45 of footage.

Wow, for real? Yeah that's a pretty rough deal for non-Nipponjin fans. Considering all the different locations they toured all over the world.

Do the live CDs sound good at least? can you also please upload them to Mega/spreadsheet?

The Makuhari Messe concert is approved though. That giant screen behind them really adds to the experience.

>>13555572

Look at the Sakura Gakuin style to see what Babymetal's doing wrong.

>>13555868
What does any of that have to do with him being a "Metalfag"?

>>13555883
It has everything to do with him being a "tryhard metalfag".

>>13555888
What part of the metal subculture is opposed to music videos, exactly?

It all sounds like an Amuse executive decision, rather than a creative one.

Sakura Gakuin doesn't even have full-length music videos on youtube, and if you think they're given more freedoms in there you're a bit misguided.

Their interviews have been getting better over time though.

>>13555572

and of course the anonfish dies by the mouth

>>13555910
I'm not saying him being a metalfag is the problem but the tryhard part where he's trying to portray the girls as something they're not. He restricts them from answering questions the way they would, prevents them from taking part in live TV, doesn't allow videos of them being themselves to be released, and so on.

>>13556070
>he's trying to portray the girls as something they're not. He restricts them from answering questions the way they would

Same deal with Sakura Gakuin though. They're coached to act and talk in idol-like manners.

who the fuck cares, im just in it for the music
couldnt care less if koba wants them to keep their mouths shut
its his project

It's still a controlled idol group. I'm sure that at least one of them wanted to tell the world about their wonderful boyfriend or girlfriend but couldn't because that's not an idol-like thing to do.

Annoying Corean/10

It got pretty good after the organ solo though.

>>13556165
It fails as a pop song, and fails as an attempt at a metal song.

>Genre: Dance

It fails at being a dance song too

10/10

>>13556165
Sounds unfinished.

>>13556165
Lol, I love how they copied the logo

Why are Koreans such unoriginal faggots?

>>13556165
They continue to hold my interest. I don't love it but it could grow on me. The last song was more hard rock to me, this one is straight metal. The composition reminds me of a Megadeth song with how all over the place it is and the transitions so I'm impressed and excited for their future tracks.

Bring on the Asian kawaii pop metal fusion. I can't get enough of it. Has Death Rabbits released anything lately by the way?

>>13556163
But in SG we get to hear about their private lives through their diaries and logirl whereas in BM all we always hear is ONLY THE FOX GOD KNOWS

>>13556262
Nope. They seem to be active though.

>>13556349
This would have fit right into Sonic Adventure.

>>13556349
lol now they go to soft rock. It's okay though, as long as there is electric guitar in it, it's good that their music is varied like BM. It's decent, has anime opening song written all over it.

DR is really good at their pop sections. Really catchy hooks. The main girl is super cute too. MoaYui level.

Would you guys like the audio CDs in FLAC or mp3?

>>13556875
MP3 320 CBR is good enough for me.

>implying anyone can tell the difference

>>13556875
both

>>13556875
Flac gives me problems with the tags, so my vote goes to mp3

>>13556891
It's because I ripped to FLAC and am too lazy to convert. I'll get it done tomorrow then.[/spoilere]

>>13556892
This is the best answer. I'll do both then since ripping again is easier than converting each file one by one.

The spreadsheet is going to undergo a minor makeover too.

Just go with FLAC then. Anyone can convert on their own if they want. Whatever gets it on there quicker.

Not the guy you quoted but I often listen to Babymetal when driving to/from work.

Why do you guys hate Koreans

>>13557137
2lewd

>>13557137
They don't, they think they do just because of Pritz.
The whole concept of Babymetal was eventually going to get copied one way or another, I don't have anything against them although the music isn't as good as Babymetal I don't resent them for doing whatever it is they do.

Also some Koreans are major qt.

>>13557137

I don't hate them, but they are obsolete as Japanese are better.

>>13557137
They're impure

>>13556891
the audio cds are already up in lossless format lmao

>>13557137
Because they are inherently ugly without plastic surgery and have shit producers that are only good at mimicing music trends from other nations and even then they do a shit unappealing job.
Their whole music industry is based around government demanded shilling.

>>13557523
They wouldn't look bad. It's just the damn trend to put everyone under knife to make them look the same.

any anons want to hook up in strasbourg?

Not that I really want to bring up Reddit, but there has been a noteworthy back and forth between them and some Japanese BM fans over the 3D Su dakimakura at Metrock.

http://niyaniyakaigai.seesaa.net/article/419581991.html
http://niyaniyakaigai.seesaa.net/article/419638208.html

To sum it up, they both reacted similarly with disgust or jokes, but there were posts saying this is just normal Japanese culture and that pissed off the Japanese fans.

>>13558396
i thought the reason people reacted violently to him was because they were being possessive over their waifu

>>13558396
>shaming the otaku
Normalfags disgust me. Meanwhile they're obsessed with their Nicki Minaj and Mikey Cyrus twerking. Absolutely disgusting.

If that guy was a jaypee he would be praised here.

>>13558450
That's different because they're idols. We're talking about the fan base here.

>>13558484
It's sexualized to the point of diminishing returns just like American pop. They rely purely on sex appeal so they don't have to worry about crafting something special.

A Japanese translated a Koba interview from a Japanese April issue magazine on reddit

http://www.reddit.com/r/BABYMETAL/comments/37hnv8/kobametal_interview_on_81japan_2015_spring/

Koba:
>I don't think that it belongs to idol scene

I wonder how Moa the otaku/idol/idol lover feels about this

>>13559255
>I wonder how Moa the otaku/idol/idol lover feels about this

She is just waiting for right time to ditch Babymetal already.

Can't wait to see them.

>>13559292
Don't forget to tell us about it after the show anon.

>>13559255
She probably feels pretty good since she's more than just a simple idol with Babymetal

>tfw they're going to be playing the Reading Festival.

This is one of those rare times I'm envious of you guys overseas. That crowd is going to be off the fucking hook.

The MP3s will be in 256kbps because that's as high as PowerDVD lets me and I'm too lazy to look for other software. If someone wants to re-encode the FLACs to 320kbps and upload to MEGA I'll be more than willing to link it on the spreadsheet instead.

The FLACs up yet?

>>13559432
Both versions of The Forum Live Album up. O2 Academy Brixton on the way.

AAC and OPUS would be too much, MP3 and FLAC would be sufficient in my opinion.

>>13559423
bigger

>>13559441
OPUS yes, but AAC seems a better option than mp3, seeing as though it does an objectively better job at 256kbps vbr than LAME mp3 encoder can do at any bitrate.

>>13559388
God, she is so fucking beautiful!

the day when spinach-kun does one of these, its gonna be my last day on earth!

>>13559452
Do it if you want, I'll throw it up there along with MP3 and FLAC too then.

>>13559460
I'm already dead thanks to this but I was born ready to die twice

>>13559301
But she and Yui are more restricted and have a smaller role in BM than SG.

>>13559452
MP3 320 kbps would be in the most demand

>>13559484
smaller is better anon, there's more focus on them since the audience's attention isn't split between 8 other members, or 148 members for that matter.

>>13559527
There needs to be more rehearsal footage of them with plainclothes... for science.

>tfw never see Suzuka's exposed midriff and navel
>never rest your head on her tummy and have her sing to you while you fall asleep

Why even live?

>>13559527
Personally I agree as well, in that context. But Moa loves idols and her opinion is different, you should understand that more than most people.

>>13559494
Yeah, but I still don't understand why. Even on bittorrent communities nobody's managed a switch to AAC. Daiz managed a switch to hi10p which few players and no ASICs supported at the time. AAC is supported by almost every device and can be decoded in hardware. ;_;

FLAC and MP3 (256kbps) versions of both albums are on the spreadsheet now.

>>13559573
It can't be helped. Please do MP3 320kbps as well.

>>13559544
Because I checked your dubs, that's why.

A lot of singers/songwriters/musicians don't necessarily listen to the genre that they perform in.

Plus most of us already know that they're pop-pleb normies.

No wonder Koba hates interviews. He spent years trying to convince everyone they're metal only to have them say they never listened to metal before in every single interview and name cheesy pop as their favorite.
