Babymetal have released pro-shot footage of their entire performance at Hellfest last night (June 27).

The Japanese metal trio played eight songs at the weekender in Clisson, France, including such fan favourites as Karate and Gimme Chocolate!!.

The band also performed new song Ratatata, which was released last month in collaboration with German synth-metal outfit Electric Callboy.

Watch the full video and see the full setlist below.

Babymetal are currently touring the European festival circuit and recently performed at Download in Donington, UK.

The band are promoting their 2023 album The Other One, which was released to positive reviews, including an 8/10 from Metal Hammer journalist Alec Chillingworth.

“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.”

Babymetal recently announced a headlining tour of the United States, with support coming from rising bimbocore star Scene Queen.

The full list of dates that the band will play is available below.

Tickets went on general sale on June 7 and are still available to purchase via the Babymetal website.

The band have also recently been sharing footage from their own festival, Fox Fest, which took place on May 25 and 26. Electric Callboy, Polyphia, Bilmuri and Metalverse rounded out the weekend’s lineup.
