Welcome to the (surprisingly complicated) world of METAL GALAXY. BABYMETAL revealed the track lists, collaborations, and cover art for nine different physical editions of their forthcoming album. We go on an odyssey through the METAL GALAXY versions, evaluating old predictions and making new ones. We also talk about BABYMETAL’s performance at Super Slippa 10, the reveal of Momoko Okazaki as the third of three Brave Avengers, the announcement of upcoming shows in Hong Kong (November) and Taipei (April), and thoughts from GALACTIC EMPIRE about playing with BABYMETAL in Japan. Join us!
