BABYMETAL ROCKS THE BIG DOME

Babymetal's first concert in the Philippines was one that showed off their identity as a kawaii-metal band.

They wore metallic skirts with armor-like tops, fitting outfits for their branding, which contrasted sharply with their adorable visuals.

Right from the energetic first number of Babymetal Death to the second performance of Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!! that had the venue jumping, raising their hands, and headbanging, it was clear how Araneta Coliseum was taken on a wild ride. When Babymetal asked, “Are you ready to headbang?” — the crowd delivered on Oct. 7.

Su-metal, Moa-metal, and Momo-metal kept the energy high with back-to-back performances of Pa Pa Ya!! in a song that had the crowd waving their towels in time to the beat and KxAxWxAxIxl that had the venue chanting along to the kawaii lyrics.
