Previously, Babymetal news was about metal purists who bashed them as the definition of a gimmick, awful and Metal For Hipsters.

In an exclusive interview with Kreator's vox Mille Petrozza obtained by Blabber Mouth, Mille was asked about the Kawaii metal: "I'm not the one to judge, man. It's not for me; I'm not their target [audience]."

Then he continued: "My [personal] opinion? If I listen to metal, I'll listen to the 'real' metal. I like some of the gimmick metal stuff. But on the other hand, I think if I really wanna listen to music, it's gotta be serious music. I don't like 'fun' music so much."

He also added, "I checked out this BABYMETAL, who seems to be the enemy for some people. Like, 'Oh, how can you do this?' I'm, like, 'It's a big party. Everybody's going wild.' Maybe I could not enjoy it as much as the people that were there, but if people are enjoying it, why not? It's not harmful to any of us, to the 'real' metal bands. It won't hurt us. BABYMETAL will not hurt KREATOR and all the bands that are around that play 'real' metal. So don't worry; it's all fine. [Laughs]"

Meanwhile, there's a band which is said to be the Babymetal of Korea. This band is called Pritz. Aside from being a Kawaii metal of Korea, this band has been a hot topic and been criticized for ripping off Babymetal and even for using a Nazi-like imagery.
