Yeah, Babymetal sure is gimmicky, that was a turn off when I first heard it.
But, the talent involved both from the backing band and the three girls is so insane that it makes up for the silly premise. Also, the songs are pretty damn good and catchy. |

you said the gimmick turned you off at first but then the gimmick won you over
being a well executed gimmick doesn't make a gimmick any less of a fucking gimmick |

No, I just don't dismiss bands based on anything but the music. If I like the music I like the band gimmick or not, it's simple. "a gimmick is a unique or quirky special feature that makes something "stand out" from its contemporaries. However, the special feature is typically thought to be of little relevance or use." |

i can vouch for the gimmick thing, but where i would normally find worth in a band's work or whatev i haven't quite found that with baby metal just yet!
then again i'm not really a "j-pop enthusiast" to say the least so that's kinda half the battle right there |

Pallbearer Foindations of Burden; fucken rad but doesn't sound2good in the car: too low. Popped it out and stuck in Future Islands Singles. Dug the catchiness now starting to feel the radness in some textures but still overall vaguely irritating. Meaning it could end up one of my favorite albums.
