BABYMETAL was interviewed by Hanna of Revolt TV from United States weeks ago before the BABYMETAL World Tour 2016 in United States. In this 4 minutes interview the girls talk about the US crowds, specially in New York City, the beginnings of the group and the FOX GOD "We were founded by our GOD, our "FOX GOD" when our GOD chose us, we became BABYMETAL" Yuimetal said.
Then asked about their music and Kami Band: "We think our music is "Kawaii" Music since we don't play instruments with the help of the band we are able to bring out the Metal elements", Moametal says.
Su-Metal explains the meaning of "Kawaii", "If you translate 'Kawaii' directly, it means 'cute' but 'Kawaii' has a certain Japanese element to it, in Japan 'Kawaii' things are always in. For example, the wardrobe we wear has frills and such which are 'Kawaii' elements."
Watch the full interview on Revolt TV in addition with the girls teaching Hanna how to dance "Gimme Chocolate" and also they learned a new choreography!

I think the Western music press is NOT HELPING BABYMETAL by focusing on 'Cute'. I think they are 'charming', and 'fun', but instead of Cute, I'm seeing thee SERIOUS, HARDCORE, dedicated rock stars totally dominating every stage they perform on. Some of the lyrics are cute/silly, but again, most of the lyrics are serious.. "Cute" just sort of ruins what they really are doing. Maybe Kawaii translates differently? I'm just saying.. these aren't useless fluffy koala bears bouncing around on stage.. I don't even think they 'look' cute! They look cool, and Goth, and awesome..
I hope they just drop the whole kawaii thing and accept that they are a legitimate rock act.
KPP on the other hand.. now SHE'S a "cute" nuclear bomb explosion.
