BABYMETAL - Tales of the Destinies - REACTION ... MINDBLOWN!!!!
We dove deep into BABYMETAL’s Tales of The Destinies, the only live performance ever captured, and what a wild, progressive ride it was! The time signature changes, the Dream Theater-level complexity, the fusion of kawaii and chaos—it blew our minds. From jaw-dropping musicianship to perfectly synchronized choreography, this is BABYMETAL at their most ambitious. We felt every drum hit, every guitar battle, every shift in rhythm. This one is for the musicians, the prog-heads, the metal lovers—and the BABYMETAL fans who know this track is a hidden gem. Watch as we analyze, laugh, headbang, and genuinely get shook by the hardest BABYMETAL song to date (and new personal favorite!).
🔥 If you're a fan of TOOL, Dream Theater, or Liquid Tension Experiment—you're going to feel this.

There's not a lot of rehearsal footage, but there are a few short clips shot before their 2014 concert in London. BABYMETAL - Akatsuki - Rehearsal Suzuka Nakamoto [ London 2014 ] [ CLIPS ] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXXDyjDocY8 BABYMETAL【神バンド 2014】リハーサル KAMIBAND [ Solo ] rehearsal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy-AW9Wgs_M Black Babymetal Rehearsing - 4 No Uta ( Yuimetal & Moametal ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHnpaFsRcOQ&t=23s (This one has a watermark because, you know, copyright issues.) There's also one from the LA Forum in 2019, but the one I found on YouTube is really loud, sideways and poor quality.
Excellent, thank you. Don't worry about them appreciating the fans - the piano at the end of this continued as the bridge into the next song (and concert finale) 'The One' - a song written for and dedicated to the fans (also The One) of course - effectively that song is their love letter to the fans. Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater's son sent him this song - he loved it describing it as "full on Prog Metal". I don't know Dream Theater very well, but I doubt they performed a full choreographed dance in any of their performances. I'll head back to YT to add a (short) comment there.
Just the thought of Dream Theater guys doing choreo on stage is funny
Please watch some festival performances of songs (or these songs in particular Megitsune or Metali) or check out some of this You Tubers videos for the girls/women fun they have and the fan interactions, It is well worth the time. ANNIE_METAL _YAO🇹🇼 she's one I am the most familiar with. Here's on video 9 minutes. https://youtu.be/Y824WsjdvRc And you must watch the live performance of "The One" to see how much they appreciate their fans if you have not already.
Again thank you for the opportunity to watch this un-edited. Now I'm back to YouTube. I want to make sure you get your likes and views. Algorithm's and all that sort of thing. See you.
Appreciate you, Robert 🫡
Unfortunately almost no behind the scenes anything. Babymetal is different. Since 2013 we have only seen Su, Moa, Yui and Momo as their Metal characters. We have almost no knowledge of anything about their personal lives. We get occasional short videos or photos of them walking in airports or into a hotel. We get occasional backstage photos or videos but they are still "in costume" (Babymetal robes or sweats). They do all interviews in-character and costume. Part of it is Japanese culture of privacy, part of it is that they were very young when they started and inevitably there were creepy fans, part of it is marketing and part of it must be what they want. Outside of their "jobs" they can live completely normal lives.
If you watch any full concert or fan cam you will see how much the ladies appreciate the fans (I am trying hard not to call them girls). Their crowd interaction is next level. You've seen a little bit in the videos you have seen (Karate for instance).
What a epic reaction to a epic song and performance. And yes they are proud of their fans and I think they show it in every concert, telling it in many interviews and dignify it with the song The One. I'm also proud to be a member of The One because we are not only supporting our beloved band but also all people that are value the work and uniqueness of this band and the people behind them and that agree with the idea and intention of that band. 🦊🦊🦊 For The Fox-God 🦊🦊🦊
They were sweating a lot in Shanti Shanti Shanti that you saw. Babymetal and the band all have in-ears and they play to a pretty complicated click/que track. We have some recordings from Su's in-ears.
Love it! Tales of the Destinies is a great song, even though generally not considered a big fan favorite. I guess it's a bit too progressive for most people to enjoy it in a casual manner. It was very much written as an homage to Dream Theater, The Dance of Eternity in particular, and was originally intended to have exactly one more time signature changes than that. I believe they've said that they worked on it for over two years, but the song ended up being too long, and was eventually split into two. The piano you hear at the end is the transition to the intro of The One, a song dedicated to the fans. Be careful when you upload this one to YouTube though! This concert (Legend Metal Resistance at the Tokyo Dome) is notorious for copyright strikes, as the DVD still sells really well to this day.
