Babymetal - Babymetal

Babymetal basically created an entirely new genre with this album that by no means should have actually worked, combining heavy metal instrumentals with j-pop vocals. Somehow it ended up capitalizing on the best of both genres, making something that is legitimately metal as all hell while having a wildly differnet sound from anything that came before it. I considered going with one of their other albums, Metal Resistance or Metal Galaxy (all three are great) but I feel like it makes more to introduce them via their self-titled debut which pretty much immediately knocked it out of the park.

This song is what made them go viral initially and the one that introduced most people to the band to begin with:
