According to the twitter shouting about the festival, the crowd were massive and they were having a rocking night.

However, in the first day, the one and only idol girls, who seemed out of schemed, performed on the stage. They really gave a refreshment. Momoiro Clover Z started decorating the stage with colorful costumes. Many fans anticipated Momoclo participation since their visual design on their 2nd full album had a similar vibe to Slipknot.

‘OVERTURE’ was appeared in loud sound. They started to open their act with ‘Pinky Jones’ in hyper mode. Strong dance and voice charmed the whole audience, and they even continued getting hyper when they started to sing ‘Ikuze! Kaitou shoujo’. The excitement of the audience can be figured by how they dance in the front seats. Momoiro Clover Z sang 5 songs in total,including Kuroi Shuumatsu, Rodo Sanka, and Moretsu uchuu kokyo kyoku dai nana gakusho [mugen no ai]. They really get positive applause from the audience.

According to an article in Barks, “Momoclo’s style goes very well with heavy metal, and they have had an impressive performance at [Summer Sonic] in the past. It can be said that they are part of the numerous rock bands that represent the industry in this day and time, and it will be exciting to see how they will do in the future”.

Looking forward how Momoclo will evolve in near future!
