A couple of promotional videos have been posted, one for the upcoming US shows, and one for the Super Slippa festival, and a couple of magazine features have come out (Kerrang, Anan, Backstage Pass) as well. An intercept of Su-metal’s in-ear monitor from Legend M surfaced. And we spend fully half the episode discussing parts of several interviews with Key Kobayashi (Kobametal), where he talks about the BABYMETAL concept, notes on individual songs, the process. Join us!
