BABYMETAL is also thrilled to share that METAL FORTH (DELUXE EDITION) will be released through Capitol Records on June 26, 2026. The deluxe edition will be available digitally and on vinyl which will feature a zoetrope design, with 10 icons from the record brought to life in motion. It will feature three live performances off the record and two remixes from Major Lazer and Jordan Fish of the standout track “from me to u (feat. Poppy).”

Formed in 2010, BABYMETAL quickly gained popularity in Japan for their explosive live shows. By 2013, they had become a force of their own by opening for Red Hot Chili Peppers, Korn, and Lady Gaga and bringing the ferocity of metal to a global audience. With over 15 years of history and a diehard international following, BABYMETAL isn’t just a band, they are a movement redefining what heavy music looks and sounds like. Fronted by three dynamic women.
