Ratings key: 
10 - One of your very favorite artists of all time.
9 - Killer fucking band.  Or artist.
8 - Great sound, great songs, great albums.
7 - Very good, but not quite great.
6 - Pretty good.  More than a few songs you like.  You'd entertain the thought of seeing them live if they were in the area.  Or still alive.
5 - They're okay, but maybe not something you'll go out of your way to listen to.
4 - Meh.  There may be a song or two, or an album that you dig, but you'd rather listen to other stuff.
3 - Not very good.  You will more likely than not turn the station if they come on the radio.
2 - Not your cup of tea at all.  Some people like this, but you are not one of them.
1 - Horrible in every way.
0 - In the running for worst artist/musician of all time.  You would rather take a cheese grater to your face than listen to this.

























Current Standings:
6.83 - Journey
6.66 - Prince
6.33 - Eminem
6.09 - Weezer
5.00 - Lady Gaga
4.66 - Avenged Sevenfold
4.53 - Bruno Mars
4.33 - Linkin Park
3.66 - Babymetal
3.63 - My Chemical Romance

It's like a metal version of no doubt.

I kinda liked it. I watched three of those videos two were in concert. Lots of energy.

Is cannibal corpse good metal? I tried to listen to it and I just didn't understand.

I'm beginning to feel like these polls are just trolling points at this time.

I have always been a huge Japanese music afficianado, any genre (as well as Korean). I was a big fan of J-metal like X and Loudness and have heard the catalogs of virtually every major Visual Kei band you can name (as well as many notable indie bands). Babymetal was never on my list of favorites though. To be honest I was never in to most of the bands that were particularly popular with western audiences, Dir en grey included, though they had their moments for me. If you don't like this, don't fail to overlook other more authentic J-metal bands like Dead End, who were not only an influence to traditional J-metal but also to visual pop-rock groups like L'arc en Ciel.

I like metal and I like female bands, but they're doing it wrong.

I think the band is kind of gimmicky, but that doesn't mean "Gimme Chocolate" isn't a great song! The musicians are killer as well. (Gave them a 7)

I can take or leave most metal. Babymetal is pretty 'meh' for me from a musical perspective; the performance, image and theatrics are really their strengths. I would go see them live if someone else is buying. So I'd give em a 5.

I played drums in a metal band for a couple years and the music is spot on killer. Impeccable on all levels. IMO.

Saying that..........the female trio with some pretty lack luster lyrics and vocal ability brings it down a bit for me.
I totally get the whole package deal and why it works. They obviously are doing something that appeals to a large fan base.
Props to them!

As a former drummer I found all music comes down to subjectivity and personal taste. (yes some music is terrible based on ability and people just learning)
