Pritz or Baby Metal?

 
Many people pointed (not on the comments but by inbox and mail –What’s the problem with comment on my blog? I’ll never know-) that last post wasn’t that much of a comparison but an analysis of the band Pritz, and that I should get into it better, showing why this bands are different and not just the flaws or points of one band but to show each band, so now here I give you the dissection of both bands.

Both bands might look like the same for people how don’t pay attention or don’t care, but they are very different. Frist we will start with the singers.

Baby Metal has the lead singer Su-Metal and to support singer/dancers Yui-Metal and Moa-Metal. This means that the main part of the song Su sings while Yui and Moa yell, back up chorus or dance, but the song is mainly Su singing.

Pritz have 4 front girls, they dance a similar choreography and sing equal parts of the songs, and there is not one face to the group but 4. Everybody is a backup of the other girls losing identity and melting into a chorus the whole group.

In metal bands there is only one lead singer like in Baby Metal where Su is the front and lead.

The sound of the songs is very important in the pop bands where they are 4 or 5 they voice is the most important, the music made by the instruments is just a guide and with a little vocalization you can remove totally the instruments. But in Metal the voice is just a part of the band, if you try to make the song without the instruments you lose a lot of the song. Pritz continues with the format of classic K-Pop and Baby Metal uses the style of a metal band.

I mean they are 4 and the 4 are important but that leave behind the music and lyrics. Someone had to pay.

The songs by itself are way different Pritz uses a format of K-pop of getting a really simple lyrics and hammer over the chorus over and is a chorus that is really easy and catchy, while Baby Metal uses a metal format, that is a song a little more complex (I say a little because isn’t difficult) but as I said, when you have 4 different front girls you can’t make a song without leaving at least one of the girls out.

The format of the songs themselves are different, because Baby Metal uses almost the ‘80s metal template where the song has its instrumental breaks and the musicians show their abilities, and Pritz while they did it on the last video Sorasora, the rest look more like classic K-Pop.

 
The lac of Riff on Pritz is disturbing. Also Dave Mustain all the way :D

The change in rhythm is a classic of Baby Metal, changing from metal to J-pop or hip hop, anything goes, things that you thing to different collide and show you that can be part of the same song, while Pritz uses changes too this ones sound more organic and smooth too much that can pass without notice.

Baby Metal created its own way of metal while Pritz created heavy K-pop.
 
So to conclude they are different, is like when people compared Metal Gear and Siphon Filter there is no big thing to compare because they are not on the same track. In other words consume what you like.
