[Choko-Nai-Pon '14 Feb.18]

In short: Who is the untidiest of the three? - SU-METAL is a scatterbrain.

This is a copy of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ogYqhZPNbI with English subtitles. This is a short radio program "Chokotto Naito Nippon" broadcast by Nippon Broadcasting System on 2014 Feb. 18th (#2 of 5).
    I am sorry if I have mistaken the voices of SU-METAL, YUIMETAL & MOAMETAL. The strange male laughter you may hear is probably the voice of the assistant director beside Mr. NISHIKAWA.

Notes

  1. She actually said "Yada" (= iya-da; dislike). Japanese girls often say this when they encounter an unexpected situation even if it is a happy one.
  2. In a winter day I saw a school girl putting on school sweat pants under her mini skirt in the train. Of course, warm stockings are allowed, but I occasionally (or rarely) see the girls in that style.
  3. When BABYMETAL was formed in the autumn of 2010, Miss Suzuka was 12 yr. (in 7th grade), and Miss Yui & Miss Moa were 11 yr. (in 5th grade).

[Choko-Nai-Pon '14 Feb.17]

In short: BABYMETAL were tense when appearing on Music Station.

This is a copy of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGiVVzNV4fQ with English subtitles. This is a short radio program "Chokotto Naito Nippon" (= a bit of 'All Night Nippon') broadcast by Nippon Broadcasting System on 2014 Feb. 17th (#1 of 5).
    Takanori NISHIKAWA (aka T.M.Revolution) is a Japanese rock/pop singer, and he has some radio programs. I am sorry if I have mistaken the voices of SU-METAL, YUIMETAL & MOAMETAL. The strange male laughter you may hear is probably the voice of the assistant director beside Mr. NISHIKAWA.

Notes

  1. This is probably exaggerated a bit, but the average age of radio listeners is getting older because most young people don't start listening to the radio but the people who was young keep on listening. Mr. NISHIKAWA himself is 43 yr. as of 2014 Feb.
  2. The Summer Sonic is one of the biggest music festivals in Japan, Loud Park is the biggest heavy metal festival in Japan, and Inazuma Rock Festival is hosted by Mr. NISHIKAWA, held at Shiga Pref. (his birth place).
  3. About 13,000 gathered at Yoyogi, and nearly 20,000 gathered at Inazuma. She may have got a wrong impression because Inazuma was an open-air festival.
  4. The event is named "All Live Nippon Vol.2", and the weird bands he refers to are Golden Bomber and Man with a Mission.
  5. Music Station is a very famous music TV program in Japan. He and BABYMETAL appeared on Feb. 7th.
  6. Most in these programs Mr. NISHIKAWA calls BABYMETAL SU-META chan, YUIMETA chan & MOAMETA chan. This way of calling is rare (though BEBIMETA is common). Most people call BABYMETAL SU (chan), YUI (chan) & MOA (chan), or SU-METAL (san) YUIMETAL (san) & MOAMETAL (san).
  7. One should not say like this, but Mr. NISHIKAWA is 161cm tall, SU-METAL is taller than or equal to him, YUIMETAL is 153cm tall, and MOAMETAL is 151cm tall, as of 2014 Feb.

Akumu no Rondo

Released on 2014 Feb. 26th, included in the first album.
Lyric: Yuyoyuppe / Music: Yuyoyuppe / Arr.: Yuyoyuppe

This is SU-METAL's solo tune.

Akumu no Rondo (Nightmare Rondo)

The waning moon has lit up
the insanity rampant in the shade.
The laughter resounds around.
It bares its fangs and its eyes gleam.
I can't escape from it.

It flickers slowly
appearing and disappearing in my mind.
A nightmare rondo is being repeated.
The awakening light
is gone far away out of my sight.
I can do nothing but run
through the darkness.

In the woods, in the fountain,
I hide myself holding my breath,
but it's still coming closer to me.
A stagnant voice. An endless night.
Ah...

If I can no longer get out of here,
won't you show me your figure?

It flickers slowly
appearing and disappearing in my mind.
A nightmare rondo is being repeated.
The awakening light
is gone far away out of my sight.
I can do nothing but fall
into the darkness.
