BABYMETAL Release Video For DA DA DANCE

Japanese metal sensations BABYMETAL have dropped a new video for their track DA DA DANCE.

Taken from their third full-length album METAL GALAXY, the new clip was filmed across a number of shows on the METAL GALAXY WORLD TOUR – including their release-day show at the Los Angeles Forum on October 11.

The track, which we described as coming on "like Lady Gaga jamming with Enter Shikari in a video game," also features acclaimed Japanese guitarist Tak Matsumoto on guitar duties.
