List of Every METAL FORTH Album Edition and Bundle

Just like for METAL GALAXY, this is for those wanting to know all the different editions, what they include, where they can buy them.

The main thing to know is all of them have the same tracklist, so there is no need to buy multiple editions for more songs this time. It’s only if you want different media (CD + vinyl), want the different covers, the photobook, or other bonuses or are a collectionist.

Prices vary depending on store, so check which is best for you. In Japan pre-ordering gets you a bonus (such as a postcard, a bag, etc.), the bonus depends on which store you buy it from.

The important thing to note is that every version, regardless of country, comes with the same 10 songs. There are no bonus, alternative, or exclusive songs this time around.

Introduction

“Beyond HEAVY METAL”: Celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, BABYMETAL presents a new style of heavy metal album created in collaboration with a new generation of friends encountered across the globe. A powerful statement of who the band is today, this album pushes toward what lies “beyond HEAVY METAL” and aims to change the course of history.

Description

In addition to live-show favorites like “METALI!! (feat. Tom Morello)” and “RATATATA (BABYMETAL x Electric Callboy)”, the new album features 10 standout tracks: “from me to u (feat. Poppy),” a track featuring Poppy, whose performance at this year’s Grammy Awards is still fresh in our minds, and composed by Jordan Fish, formerly of Bring Me the Horizon; “My Queen (feat. Spiritbox),” a collaboration with Canadian metalcore band Spiritbox, widely regarded as a leading band in the next generation of metal; “Song 3 (BABYMETAL x Slaughter to Prevail)”, a brutal counting song with Slaughter to Prevail, a Russian death metal band rapidly gaining popularity at festivals as they pursue a Guinness World Record for the largest wall of death; “Kon! Kon! (feat. Bloodywood),” a creature metal song with Indian “Bollywood metal” band Bloodywood, who have been the talk of the town at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL and festivals around the world, blending roots in Japanese and Indian tribal music; “Sunset Kiss (feat. Polyphia),” a city-pop metal track and second collaboration with Polyphia, who also gave a standout performance at “FOX_FEST” last year; “KxAxWxAxIxI,” a wild rap metal song composed by DAIDAI from Paledusk who also worked on Lil Uzi Vert’s song “The End (feat. BABYMETAL)” that was included on his No. 1 US Billboard album; “Algorism,” a nostalgic metal track reminiscent of a classic song; and “White Flame,” the climactic conclusion to the band’s melodic speed metal series.

Packed with collaborations from artists leading the next generation of the metal scene, this album sets the stage for BABYMETAL’s dynamic world tour. The latest evolution of metal, as presented by BABYMETAL today, is set to go “beyond metal” and rewrite music history.
