Babymetal just signed a US record deal with RAL/Sony Music. Babymetal's self titled album will be reissued in the US and will include two bonus tracks on June 16. It will also be available digitally on May 12. According to Bill Richards, VP of Marketing for RAL/Sony Music says, “After witnessing the band’s sold-out New York show, we knew we wanted to be involved. The core metal fans and metal press seem to get BabyMetal, which shows how the language of music transcends boundaries. They hit all the entertainment buttons and are really fun to watch.”
The details of their deal with Sony was not revealed. It is quite known that Sony Music Label have ridiculous album deals like the one they gave to Unlocking The Truth where they are required to sell 75k albums just to get a percentage of their 1 million dollar deal. The two bonus tracks included were not specified but there are speculations that it will Road of Resistance and their new song: Bubble Dreamer(tentative title)...or it may be some of Babymetal's cover songs performed during their concerts.
Hopefully, Amuse Inc. and Kobametal will still be in full control of the music production and that this deal will help propel Babymetal to greater heights.
