BABYMETAL and Electric Callboy have joined forces for the new collaborative song “RATATATA.”
The collab pairs two of the most prominent practitioners of “dance metal” and lives up to its billing. Tech-y metal riffs are infused into a pulsing EDM beat, over which BABYMETAL and Electric Callboy share vocal duties — the former handling the higher melodies and the latter providing the gutturals and metalcore vox.
“Unbeatable!” exclaimed BABYMETAL in the press announcement for the song. “Let’s ‘Fu Fu’ together with RATATATA.”
Enthused Electric Callboy: “Working with BABYMETAL was so much fun. We joined our creative forces and, in the end, we brought together the best of both worlds. We love ‘RATATATA’!”
It’s the second collaborative track of 2024 for BABYMETAL following the March release of “LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND” featuring Bodyslam & F.HERO.
Meanwhile, BABYMETAL are hosting their own festival, Fox_Fest, this weekend in Saitama, Japan. The bill includes Electric Callboy, so fans in attendance could witness a rare live performance of “RATATATA.” BABYMETAL also have a European/UK tour set for June (get tickets here).
