Japanese kawaii metal group Babymetal, who have been performing since 2010, are returning with their fourth studio album, the group's first release since "Metal Galaxy" in 2019. "The Other One" will feature 10 new tracks, according to the band's website, and the songs will serve as a reintroduction to the group via a virtual world called the Metalverse.
"The concept album reveals the other side of the BABYMETAL story that until now remains untold," the website reads. "A total of 10 songs have been discovered within THE OTHER ONE restoration project, with each song representing a unique theme based on 10 separate parallel worlds that they have discovered. And now, full length audio of each of the 10 songs will finally be revealed when the concept album is available March 2023!!"
Ahead of the album release, the band have dropped two singles: "Diving Attack — Shingeki" and "Monochrome." "The Other One" will be available on 24 March, 2023.
