The fact that playing skill and technical mastery of one's instrument has always been appreciated in heavy metal remains at least as strong as the craving for dirt and danger. Such edge, however, can't be found in BABYMETAL, though this shouldn’t be a matter to lament over. Some will surely find this an undesired trait and hold that heavy metal should have a certain kind of rusty edge. The performance is top quality and it wouldn't be surprising if each show on this tour was identical from the first note to the last. There's no rough touch of heavy metal's punky roots to be found here. This can clearly be heard in BABYMETAL's live recordings. It is obvious that when talking about an entertainment unit founded by a talent agency, the musicians can't be anything less than the most qualified professionals. The group is backed by a genuine live band and that is an essential factor in making BABYMETAL metal. However, this hasn't been the case for several years now. Indeed, playback was the solution for BABYMETAL back in their beginnings. A pop/metal/whatnot crossover group led by three glittering idols would have no need to perform live with a real band. BABYMETAL have toured across both Europe and America and it’s their live performances that make them a metal group to be taken seriously. The 2010-founded group released their debut album in 2014 and since then their worldwide success has shown no signs of decline. It isn't even their first live show recorded overseas. LIVE AT WEMBLEY is definitely not the first live album of the world's greatest kawaii metal group. It is just BABYMETAL, and BABYMETAL is surely something everyone know already, isn't it? The peculiar fact remains, however, that this CD is neither a failed bid to appear a sober heavy metal group nor any kind of self-ironic satire.

Is this a genuine attempt to convince the listener of heavy metal's solemnity, or some kind of hilarious parody? Is the listener supposed to burst into a relieving laugh at any time? These are the kind of thoughts that may cross the listener's mind when they've gotten themselves involved with BABYMETAL's new CD, LIVE AT WEMBLEY.

”The spirit of heavy metal, the destinies were chosen by the Fox God. Can the listener keep a straight face, hearing a grave voice recite these words? A pompous gothic choir backs the voice which goes on to tell us that: ”Ī concert, or in this case, a recording of one meant for home-use, begins. “A long time ago in a heavy metal galaxy, far, far away.
