2. BABYMETAL DEATH

This song is the intro song for the concerts. It's basically fast guitars and then the girls come up saying "YUIMETAL DESU" etc. as form of introduction. I hope they turned it into a proper song for this release.

3. Ijime, Dame Zettai -Nemesis ver.-

Nemesis is a pretty famous song by Arch Enemy, I hope it's related  XD

2. Catch Me If You Can

This is new! I guess this won't be Suumetal's solo song, because that's a-side material. It's not the Yui/Moa rap song either, so I'm looking forward hearing it.

The covers are pretty awesome. The IDZ types are badass and the regular is lol-worthy in a Rhapsody kind of way  XD

Hmm, the CD tracklistings look dubious then with an intro song. Shame the IDZ types don't have different CD tracklistings. At 1,800 yen each they are expensive as well!

I'm also wondering if the Type D DVD liveclip is just this old youtube vid:


Add me in to the "covers are awesome" brigade

Yeah, first thing I checked when I saw the setlist was the date and venue and it all matched.
It may be different footage, but it has to be from that performance...
Too bad because it's pretty old by now and we've all seen it a thousand times already.
At least the Headbanger/Uki Uki performance is more recent and new.



In other news, SuuMetal Happy 15th Birthday DESU!  :cow:

I, D, Z: LEGEND “D” SU-METAL Birthday at Akasaka BLITZ review:

Quote
Then they covered “White Love” by SPEED which was a huge hit in the times SU-METAL was born. The song had been arranged as “Angel Of Death ver.”

Quote
The last song was the cover of classis song “Tsubasa wo Kudasai –Fire-“, which was a surprising choice for them. SU-METAL’s clear and vibrating voice seemed to purify the place. She slowly climbed up the stairways set on the stage and spread her hands up to the huge cross placed on the back of the stage. At the moment 4 pillars of fire blew up on stage. The stage was closed when the white cloth fell on them as though covering the stage.

-->  The next stage “I, D, Z, :LEGEND “Z”” will be held on February 1, 2013 at Zepp Tokyo!

They're up against BiS and Dorothy Little Happy, among others:

Quote
NINKI ratings for the week of 7/1~13/1/2012

01 88.70 Yamada Ryosuke - Mystery Virgin
02 57.30 Yuzu - REASON
03 50.90 Iwasa Misaki - Moshimo Watashi ga Sora ni Sundeitara
04 22.10 FUDANJUKU - Jinsei Wahaha!
05 19.90 Taketatsu Ayana - Jiku Tours
06 18.00 Kitamura Eri - Miracle Gliders
07 17.30 Sakamoto Shintaro - Matomo ga Wakaranai
08 16.70 BiS to Dorothy Little Happy - GET YOU
09 16.30 BABYMETAL - Ijime, Dame, Zettai
10 15.40 Dohatsuten - Nihon Retto Wasshoi Keikaku

Their personal best is a weekly #20 with 4,144 copies sold.
Sakura Gakuin's best is 5,649 so it'd be epic if they can outsell the mothership.


I also realized a lot of their 'remixed' songs are titled after famous metal songs:
- White Love (Angel Of Death ver.) --> Slayer song
- Over The Future (Rising Force ver.) --> Yngwie Malmsteen song
- Ijime, Dame Zettai (Nemesis ver.) --> Arch Enemy song

I always wonder what would happen to BABYMETAL when Suzuka graduated next year. Because I love this unit and I can't imagine BABYMETAL without Suzuka.
word I wonder if they are going to separate the group from regular Sakura Gakuin so they can continue because honestly is going very good and guess would be very shocking if the producer just let her go because of that Sakura Gakuin rule... i wonder
There's a freaking "graduate by the age of 16" rule or something in Sakura Gakuen!? :panic:
That doesn't make sense at all! Imo girl idols are at their prime around age 20 (personal observation, at least in the 48/46 families)! Why graduate waaaaay before that & before one can actually make some proper profit?!

Apology, I should first introduce myself (not really necessary I guess, I know many of you guys. :lol:)
I just stumble upon this thread right now, & saw the mv of Ijime, Dame, Zettai elsewhere not too long ago. I was rather impressed & interested by the mv, & personally I thought it would do really well since it is gaining so much view compare to their older videos (204,370 views already! This compare to 40,000 & less views of their other video.) So I was really surprised their NINKI Ranking is that low, but I guess their previous single is lower than. :nervous

What on earth is the Nogizaka fan doing here? Care to guess? :lol:
The answer is below in white, highlight to see it!
Sumetal's name is Nakamoto Suzuka (中元すず香). There's a member in Nogizaka with the name of Nakamoto Himeka (中元日芽香). See the connection? They are sisters! Himeka is the elder one, Suzuka is the younger one (funny how Himeka is going for the cute chara, while Suzuka the cool one lol). Nogizaka is gonna go for a second generation btw, something I am not happy to see. However, if that silly rule of Sakura Gakuen really do exist, than I would be more than happy to see the sisters be united in the same group!

Please note that their official YT channel is relatively new and they re-uploaded all their other videos. Their old clips were watched many, many times as well.

But sadly bad encoding in this one. Video is lacking every few seconds.
