BABYMETAL & Poppy Decimate on New Collab 'from me to u'

Worlds have collided with the highly anticipated release of BABYMETAL and Poppy's fresh collaboration 'from me to u' - taken from BABYMETAL's forthcoming album METAL FORTH - set to drop in June 13th via Capitol Records.

Commencing with backing synth and an up-tempo display of metal ferociousness, the focus leans heavily into Poppy who draws us in with her alluring performance which allows BABYMETAL to shine with their English sung contributions. Poppy's screams are intense (some of her best yet) and both acts guide the listener hand-in-hand through soaring highs and decimating lows with plenty of metal riffage, blastbeats and circlepit inducing instrumentlas throughout.

While it may not have the same catchiness appeal like 'RATATATA' with Electric Callboy, it's certainly going to please the metal fans among us who won't have issue snapping their necks with every spin. The song was also produced by Jordan Fish, who just continues to add his magical touch to new-age bands across the entire heavy // alternative music scene.

Celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, BABYMETAL presents a new style of heavy metal album created in collaboration with a new generation of friends encountered across the globe. A powerful statement of who the band is today, this album pushes toward what lies "beyond HEAVY METAL" and aims to change the course of history.

Both Poppy and BABYMETAL left Aussie fans in awe on their respective tours in 2025 (including BM's EPIC set at KNOTFEST) and fellow Knotty 2025 lineup act Slaughter To Prevail are also officially revealed to jump in with the band on the new album, alongside other feature collabs with Polyphia, Bloodywood, Spiritbox and Mr. Tom Morello himself.

METAL FORTH is shaping up to be the babies' biggest release yet, are you on board?
