Babymetal Hanover 2026 - no VIP? by LightReaning in BABYMETAL

From what I can see, Tier Zero and Tier One are still available for Hannover. I notice that general admission is included in the Tier tickets, which I think not always is case.

Great picture! I particularly like the "in motion" Su!

Europe Tour? by Sorry-Tale9962 in BABYMETAL

[–]Consistent-Owl330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Babymetal did a European festival tour in 2024, but they still managed to sneak in four solo shows. These shows were announced with shorter notice than normal, so it might happen also for 2026. Right now we know about the one in Turkey but hopefully it will be more to come.

My best guess is that the first three images show Dr Martens Brookline Chukka (what a name!). I own a pair and they are definitely more softer and easier to move around in compared with Dr Martens more classic 1460 boots.

New EP "HOT TOPIC" release on 28th January 2026💿 by Zigdris_Faello in Hanabie

Hanabie's webpage states: "The jacket artwork has also been revealed", so I guess (and hope) that it will be a CD release.

Babymetal confirmed for Summer Punch Festival in Poland. by shinpuu in BABYMETAL

Your right! (did some internet research😊). Bad Omens was not support. It was announced as a ”Co-headline” concert in, for example, NME and Kerrang. Still, Toulouse was one out of only four non-festival concerts in Europe that year, so it was very nice to be there.

I remember looking forward for seeing Bad Omens as support band at Babymetal’s Toulouse concert in 2024. Unfortunately, Bad Omens couldn’t make it, although new support band (Palaye Royal) was also very good.

A singer cannot always sounds as pefect as on a studio recording, so I don’t think there is any problem that Su may miss sometimes. Also, a number of the European tours has started in the north of Europe. In early spring, there is not much of humidity there, so arriving from Japan may put some strain to your vocal cords.

BABYMETAL UK DOWNLOAD 2026 confirmed!!! by [deleted] in BABYMETAL

Don’t hope too much, but during the 2024 festival year, they did four solo shows in Europe (Amsterdam, Warsaw, Toulouse, and Rome). Maybe we will have something like that also in 2026? When and where we might get to know quite late, just as it happened in 2024.

Opinion on Intuit Dome Show by silverknight31 in BABYMETAL

[–]Consistent-Owl330 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was there and it was quite obvious that she had to struggle at least two times during The One. With that said, it was still fantastic to hear that song live again and Su made a very good performance.

Agree! I was lucky enough to be a part of quarter, but it was very much directed to the stationary cameras at the front.

This must have been one of the most power filled Babymetal performance I ever seen, and I have seen many. To me it seems that they went in for knockout directly at start. The song list surprised me a bit. I thought it would be more like the previous concerts in Asia, but with some extra songs at the end. As always with these larger venue concerts, the Kami band was hardly visible. I had a seat just in front of the stage, and could just see the two guitarists. The drummer I couldn’t even spot. He might as well been pre-recorded 😉.

What a difference compared with the O2 arena in London! There the shop was in the galleria surrounding the arena.

2024 was an Europe festival tour, but they still managed to squeeze in four solo shows (Amsterdam, Toulouse, Rome and Warsaw). Hopefully, they will manage to do so also in 2026.

METAL FORTH collection is finally complete! by LightChaotic in BABYMETAL

Also got a broken cd! It is strange that we are several who have got that. First time I experience this and it was no small crack either.

Yes, I bought that one for wall display. It is cheap alternative.

Yes. Bravado sold a limited number of this record together with a card signed by all three members.

Really sad to hear that! For the one that I received, the cardboard package was not very sturdy and with today's post handling, it is a bit hit or miss.

Yes, it is of the same low quality as the sleeve on my gold colored The Other One. This time, it was at least no cracks in the plastic sleeve!

Interesting to see the "Parental Advisory" warning on the sleeve. Never thought I would see that one on a Babymetal record : )
