BABYMETAL ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM METAL GALAXY FOR OCTOBER 11

Japanese metal band, BABYMETAL has announced their third LP METAL GALAXY to be released October 11th via BABYMETAL RECORDS /  Cooking Vinyl. The album, aptly titled after a fictional place within the BABYMETAL universe, is about an odyssey the band must take to the METAL GALAXY, a trajectory thrust upon them by the FOX GOD sending the band on a darker path.  Each song brings them closer to their desired destination starting with their previously released “Elevator Girl”, “Distortion” and today with new song “PA PA YA!!” featuring Thai rapper F.HERO.

In the 3 years since the release of their last album, 2016’s METAL RESISTANCE, the band has achieved an insurmountable amount of success around the world with hundreds of millions of audio streams, and almost a billon YouTube views. They played to 110,000 people over the course of two nights at the massive TOKYO DOME, supported Red Hot Chili Peppers on their UK/US arena tour along with additional support slots with Metallica in South Korean and Guns N’ Roses in Japan. They plan to continue the success in the US as they embark on a full national US headline tour later this summer culminating in the band’s first headline arena show in North America at The Forum in Los Angeles on October 11. Kicking off September 4th in Orlando, FL and wrapping up October 16th in Seattle, WA the 20 date tour will make stops in DC, Boston, New York, Chicago and more (full dates below).
