Babymetal have picked their five favourite foods in a new Metal Hammer interview.

Hammer caught up with the kawaii metal trio – Su-Metal, Moametal and Momometal – at Download Festival in Donington, UK, last month and got them to create their dream menu.

Su-Metal begins by voicing her love for hamburgers.

“I really love hamburgers!” the vocalist declares.

“Whenever I go on tour, I’m always looking for a delicious hamburger shop. Especially, I love bacon cheeseburgers. With a chocolate shake, it’s a pretty good combo, I think.”

Moametal then explains how much she adores omelette with rice.

“During our tours, I really miss eating omelettes with rice – it’s my favourite!” she says.

“It’s my special omelette with rice, so I won’t let anyone else [have any of it]!”

Babymetal released their latest studio album, The Other One, last year.

Hammer journalist Alec Chillingworth gave the album a glowing 8/10 review.

“Now they’re not shoved down your gullet on every festival stage or website available, it’s easier to appreciate [Babymetal] for what they are: an experiment that’s gotten out of hand,” wrote Chillingworth.

“The Other One is nigh-on no-filler, and unquestionably their strongest compendium of delirium to date.”

The band released a standalone single, Ratatata, in May. The track was a collaboration with German synth-metal pair Electric Callboy.

Babymetal will tour North America this year, with support from bimbocore up-and-comer Scene Queen. See the full list of dates below.
