Great reaction.🦊The song is almost 5 years old - it was on BABYMETAL's 3rd album Metal Galaxy released in 2019. It is certainly one of BABYMETAL's more mellow songs ... but BABYMETAL can do everything. That's one reason their collaborations all work so well as they are so versatile they can do pretty much whatever style and match up with whoever they are collaborating with. I think the lyrics are in the pinned comment under the video you watched if you want to read them - it is a very uplifting and optimistic song. Polyphia are a mainly instrumental Prog Rock band from Texas. Tim Henson and Scott LePage recorded the guitar tracks for the original recording of the song. They didn't know what the final version of the song would sound like when they sent the guitar tracks and only heard it when the album was released ... they thought it sounded like a Polyphia song but with vocals and they really hoped they would get the chance to play it live with BABYMETAL one day. Fox_Fest in Tokyo in May (arranged, hosted and headlined by BABYMETAL) was the first chance they all had to meet up and to finally do this very first live performance with them all together.🎸🦊🎸

⚡ 🍑 💕 / 🌅 "Asu ga mata kuru kara." (Tomorrow will come, after all) - Polyphia performed a set earlier that evening at BABYMETAL's FOX_FEST, and later Tim and Scott joined BABYMETAL during their set for this song. Tim and Scott mentioned in a recent interview that they had even more fun on this song than during their own set at BABYMETAL's FOX_FEST. It was also the first time they have performed live with a vocalist. They're an incredibly technical group, but have a great groove. 'Playing God' is a great example if you want to check out a Polyphia song.

So is polyphia just instrumental music?

[@rickwagner-]

@@RichInReaction Yes, although they have collaborated with singers a few times.

was some amazing guitar work!

[@Ganimal83]

Nice! The forecast for today is: Chill, with a 100% chance of vibes. This song is very much in Polyphia’s style, but Babymetal makes it 10x better! 🤘🦊

Welcome back to the Foxhole and now going back to Metal Galaxy era.🦊🤘🌅 Metal Galaxy is a wonderful album and full of surprises, you're gonna find more songs like this with more mature sound, it came out in 2019 so isn't so new. The album version got the collaboration of Polyphia guitarists, Tim Henson (short hair on the right) and Scott LePage (long hair on the left), and it's quite clear in the solo section. Polyphia got a viral clip when they were performing live and having an issue with the drummer IEM not working and a roadie helped him out in an unorthodox way to save the show, very funny clip. Their songs are mainly instrumental but i think they got some collabs with famous singers but don't quote that on me, what is for sure they got mad skills playing instruments. Tim Henson said when listening to this song that he would love to play this along with BabyMetal on the stage, he didn't know the final cut when he was doing the riffs on this song. The dance on this song is beautiful and graceful, they're showing another mature side and more complicated choreography. According to MoaMetal is the hardest song to dance along with BxMxC and Night Night Burn iirc, not sure if this statement will be the same now that they got a full new album. Song is inspired by certain "city pop" band (city pop is a subgenre widely known in Japan) and Utada Hikaru songs, when SuMetal heard this she doubt about it being a metal song but then the guitars solo were added and all make senses suddenly. Finally we got them together on stage and with this awesome live performance, it is their first time performing together. They did it again at Graspop Festival in Belgium and they hug each other at the end just like in this version only thing it was cut out, there's also a proshot clip but I'm not so sure about the sound mix. They finished the Europe Tour and they did it along with EC playing their collab song twice at Resurrection Fest in Spain. Next is coming Asian Tour and after that American Tour. Along with RATATATA this was definitely one of the highlights at FOX_FEST and a lot of Japanese fans were looking for, I guess that cool slow pace city pop element gives some nostalgia and that's why many fans love it. In a recent interview, Tim and Scott talked about a new song in their upcoming album along with BM, let's see what they got but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be something real good like this one. In a more recent interview BM said that they would love to collab along with Fall Out Boy, can you imagine?👀 They already finished the Asian Tour and in October they will be at Knotfest Brazil, Argentina and Chile for the first time in South America, as well Peru with a headlining show, they will come back to the US for another tour and also Mexico will be part of that tour but this time as special guests for Slipknot, we can't wait for it. Keep enjoying BM songs and see you next time 🦊🤘🔥

I havent heard anything Fall Out Boy in a long time, I can not imagine lol. I'm gonna have to check out some Polyphia songs but these collabs have been great

[@ksbrst2010]

Well Babymetal pushes it a bit as an old Collab. POLYPHIA is an American Guitar Specialist and Babymetal wanted a song from them. So Babymetal prepared a Special Master with Dummy Guitars and Dummy Vocals. Polyphia replaced the Dummy Guitars with their own work and Babymetal finished the Song. It is in Essence a normal Collab of a different time. When Su heard thos Song for the first time she was worried "Is this metal" but today they push this as an example how Collabs can Sound.
