Babymetal have been added to the line-up for Reading & Leeds festival 2015, which is incredible news.
The double-site event will be headlined by Mumford & Sons, Metallica and The Libertines, but now to add a dash of Japanese idol metal to proceedings, Babymetal will now join the bill - performing at Reading on Saturday 30 August and Leeds on Sunday 30 August.
"One thing that Babymetal really pride themselves on is the fact that we strive to be the only one doing this," Babymetal's Su-Metal told Gigwise. "We are a combination of pop idol meets heavy metal, and you don't see a lot of people doing that. It's usually one or the other. That's what putting us apart and that's what people connect to."
