I've been hearing this on the radio in the last month or so.

Five Finger Death Punch has released a new version of their song 'The End' (released 2 or 3 years back), only this version features Babymetal, the Japanese, female, metal trio.

I found a version with a translation of the Japanese lyrics.

Babymetal, the Japanese, female, metal trio.

They're a trio again? One member (Moa, I think?) left to go solo a few years back, but I haven't been following them closely for a while, so if they took on someone new to replace them it's news to me.

EDIT: Oh, and yeah, great track, thanks for posting it!

[Norgarth]

I just quickly glanced at their wikipedia page and saw 3 members listed. *shrug* They may be a duo currently.

EDIT: It may also be a Phil Collins and Genesis thing, where she has a solo career but also continues to do stuff with the group.

Is this a science video? Ethics? Philosop[hy? Politics even? I don't know, but it even without believing current LLMs are true AI it resonates strongly.

It may well fit him better than Sinatra.

The twelve days of Christmas are always a horror story if you have to go anywhere near a store.

What do you do when somebody covers one of your favourite songs and makes it better?

You share it with other people.

Also, if you rmember Je Suis Baguette from the first explosion of AI tunes a year or so ago, this one was originally from around the same time, so there was probably a meme I missed due to ignoring social media

Bowsette was a meme that blew up enough even I didn't miss it. Now also a song.

Back around the turn of the century we thought "Hansen hits their twenties and goes metal" was a hilarious joke... turns out it could have been awesome.

Honourable mention: Hot Stuff, the first cover I heard from that uSpud and made me check the rest of their stuff


Okay, you say, but what if it wasn't that good to begin with? (or at least not a huge hit single)

So my conclusion, when I find myself headbanging and dancing in my seat to this, and unmoved by most of the modern music scene, even alleged metal?

"I find your lack of riffs... disturbing."
