Do you feel a darkness creeping across the land? Tremble, mortals, for the awesome power of Babymetal is at hand!

If you're unfamiliar, fear not (well, fear a little, at least). Fronted by Yuimetal, Su-metal and Moametal, Babymetal merges the traditions of Japanese idol bands — elaborate, regimented and choreographed pop music from Japan, which shares some characteristics with but is different from Korea's K-pop, which is taking the U.S. by storm — and good old-fashioned parent-frightening heavy metal. (The band's name is pronounced "bebby metal.") The three women and their shred-tastic band receive their instructions from the mysterious Fox God, who speaks through their producer Kobametal.

It seems the Fox God has commanded them to tour the U.S. and Europe and ignite their fan base (known as "The One") as they prepare the follow-up to their 2016 album Metal Resistance, and they'll stop at Marathon Music Works on Friday, May 18. Tickets are $28.50 and go on sale Friday, March 2, at 10 a.m. right here.

Intrigued? Hell yeah, you are. Below, check out Babymetal's 2016 performance of "Gimme Chocolate!!" on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, as well as the music video for the song "Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!!!"
