Before we go any further, nothing in this post is an April Fools’ Day joke.
So: Blabbermouth reports that Babymetal will release a new album in 2019, and that they have a few performances scheduled in Japan this summer. You may recall that Yuimetal left the band last year to launch a solo career after missing some live dates in late 2017 and initially pushing the line that she was still a member of the band (just taking a break), meaning Babymetal’s upcoming effort will be their first as a two-piece (not counting the backing band — which should absolutely be counted). It’ll be interesting to see how that changed dynamic affects the band’s sound, but my guess is not much, if at all; the live show may look a bit different, but the Kami band will still be writing the music. I think the bigger question is this: will the album recover from the sophomore slump The Resistance brought in 2016? The debut was so, so good, but the former fell a bit short for me.
Something to look forward to as 2019 inches towards summer.
