As BABYMETAL release new album METAL FORTH, the kawaii-metal sensations have also dropped a new video for My Queen featuring Spiritbox.

Courtney LaPlante and co. are just one of many artists the fox-worshipping trio have worked with on METAL FORTH, having previously shared collabs with the likes of Electric Callboy, Poppy and Bloodywood.

In our 4/5 review of the record, writer James Hickie said of the various team-ups, "On the whole, it’s a venture that works brilliantly. From me to u (featuring Poppy) and My Queen (featuring Spiritbox) are perfectly cultivated collaborations. In both cases, you sense the guests have been inspired by BABYMETAL along the way, making for a mutually reciprocal dynamic with engrossing results. Meanwhile, Kon! Kon! (featuring Bloodywood) is a winner because of the sheer power and persuasiveness of its cultural soundclash."

Check out the new video for My Queen below.

METAL FORTH is out now via Capitol.

Remembering the biggest shows of BABYMETAL’s lives: “We want to do new things that no other Japanese band has done”

By 2016, the BABYMETAL prophecies were already beginning to come true. As K! joined them in Japan for a set of enormous shows at Tokyo Dome, we witnessed in real-time a giant standing up before us. After that year’s METAL RESISTANCE album made them one of the biggest bands in the universe, things looked perfect. But the golden path would eventually be beset with difficulty…
