The upcoming tour is scheduled to visit arenas in Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin, Zurich, Barcelona, Paris and other European cities throughout May. From there, BABYMETAL will head to the UK for a concert at The O2 in London on Friday May 30.
Back in June, BABYMETAL played a main stage slot at Download Festival 2024. Speaking to NME backstage at the event, the band said they didn’t want to deviate too far from their roots with their forthcoming North American gigs.
“You know what? We haven’t changed at all,” explained Su-Metal, looking back at the band’s evolution, 10 years after their debut studio album.
“We have always been BABYMETAL, the way we are, and we still have a long way to go. [Being here now is] all thanks to everyone who supported us, whether it’s our fans, the media, staff, or even other bands we’ve met before.”
They also talked about Bring Me The Horizon’s Oli Sykes joining them on stage. “When we headbanged together it was such a happy moment that I don’t even know how to put it into words,” Momometal recalled.
