More about: Download Festival
Prepare for yet more insanity courtesy of The Fox God - as the sensational BABYMETAL return to the UK to perform at Download Festival next month.
After they played a historic and mind-expanding show at London's Wembley Arena earlier this year, now the Japanese metal sensation will be rightly heading to the home of rock when they hit Donington Park to perform alongside the likes of Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Rammstein, Deftones and many more.
"BABYMETAL music is a blend of hard music and metal music with Japanese pop and sounds," Yuimetal told Gigwise, explaining their appeal. "If we were not from Japan, we'd be a totally different band with totally different fans. We are Japanese, we are BABYMETAL."
As a taster of what to expect, when reviewing their Wembley show we said: "Everything is exaggerated to the Nth degree, but with such immaculate clarity that it can hardly seem ridiculous. This is a fully-formed vision that's impossible not to get totally lost in."
Download takes place between 10 and 12 June at Donington Park in Derbyshire, and you can get tickets and more information here.
