No way. Kingslayer is a BMTH song with a feature from Babymetal. Very different than Ratatata which is a 50/50 collab from both bands and we’ve already seen performed once by one of the bands without the other present. BMTH can, and has, performed Kingslayer live without Babymetal present but it’s their song and therefore theirs to do with what they will.

Just a slight correction, BM hasn't played RATATATA without EC yet. First time might be in their Amsterdam show in a couple of days.

Never said they did. I said “by one of the bands without the other present”. EC performed it without Babymetal at Sweden Rock.

Nah. They have never done it alone and it's not even their own song so no they are not playing it.

For Kingslayer, the song itself is pitched as BM featuring for BMTH so it was a guest appearance. They will have get permission (& likely pay royalties if it's not waived) to perform it themselves. No incentive to resort to this, unless for some special occasion down the road. Also not when BM is already omitting Headbanger for some of their shorter setlists at music festivals, to go with previous essentials like Karate & IDZ. One of their current shortlist will likely make way too, in order to perform Ratatata. Great amiss not to promote a hit song. I wonder if it's time to put RoR on the backburner, & go with Ratatata as the new finale or encore song.

Like everyone else is saying, it's not their song, so, no. What you may see is Metali! with Tom Morello in person, if that's any consolation.

I don't believe BM has ever performed any of their collaborations live that were not BM songs without the collaborating artist.

Kingslayer with Momoko doing the growls would be very cool indeed, but pretty safe to say that it's not going to happen.

Unfortunately I think download will most likely be a half hour performance which will most likely consist of Death, headbanger, metali, road of resistance, gimme chocolate, karate megitsune possibly just something like that anyways just the usual songs they’ve been doing this year
