Children Of Bodom

[i am the robots]

His playing on the old albums was quite good, but the past few albums have been tasteless wankery, they've really gone downhill, I suggest you check out Hatebreeder and Follow The Reaper before you criticize Bodom though.

[Papa Gheylol]

I've heard all their work ..

I agree, Hatecrew Deathroll isn't a good album to start out with. It is a nice, good, catchy CD, but if you want Bodom in their heyday, check out those CDs.

Hey Squirrel. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical. CoB is technical.

And yes, why the bannage, dude?

[Papa Gheylol]

Haha.

I think I was banned for trying to start a pro-aryan modship and removing all non white members.

[Shred Danson]

Haha.

Ah. Been there, done that.

[Papa Gheylol]

Yeah, i dont see any harm in it.

[dest. Chaos]

Yeah, i dont see any harm in it.
haha :thumb: ......... I bought Are You Dead Yet? today!!!!!!

[AA-12]

:lol::lol:

They're no where near technical.
Exactly.

<shouldbepostedinthedtthread> I just got the live concert of Dream Theater covering the album "The Number of The Beast". It's seriously amazing. </shouldbepostedinthedtthread>

[Shattered_Future]

Exactly.

<shouldbepostedinthedtthread> I just got the live concert of Dream Theater covering the album "The Number of The Beast". It's seriously amazing. </shouldbepostedinthedtthread>

I had a Dream Theater live cover of Master Of Puppets (the album), and a video of them doing the song.

The music is good, but it cracks me up seeing LaBrie try to imitate Hetfield...and the clean guitar part played on a keyboard. :lol:

LaBrie >>>>>>>>> Hetfield.

That cover album is great too.

[Shattered_Future]

He is...he has a better range, but him doing a Hetfield impression is like having Ashlee Simpson mimic Angela Gossow...it just ain't right.

[IheartSP]

Hmm lets see, Kalmah, formed in 1999, that's the year Hatebreeder came out. They had a death metal band before it that wasn't anything like waht they are now. I'd say CoB came first...

I've never heard Sentenced so I couldn't tell you if they ripped them off, but seeing as no one else has ever mentioned it they couldn't have done it that badly.

I know of a lot of guitarists better than Alexi but like I said that doesn't make him any worse, and he is towards the top of his genre anyway. I think his songwriting is great, or at least used to be, and it is leagues ahead of bands like Norther in technicality.

[Shattered_Future]

Sentenced has been around forever...14 years, I think. 8 albums...

Squirrel, you have to admit that Alexi can belt out a killer solo on occasion...

Rebel Yell

That's all I can think of. What else?

I thought the Trooper was someone else...

And they also did Somebody Put Something in my Drink.

[blue3]

havent heard rebel yell or the trooperI like the Rebel Yell cover. They didn't cover Trooper.. They covered Aces High though. They covered Hellion, Shot In The Dark, Silent Scream and some others.. I can't remember.

[Shadows]

Mass Hypnosis (Sepultura)
Silent Scream (Slayer)
Don't Stop at the Top (Scorpions)
No Commands (Stone)

Shot in the Dark (Ozzy Osbourne)

do you have rebel yell that shoud be funny.

[flamesofbodom]

When did they do Sepultra

[Shadows]

I think is was released on a European version of Something Wild. Most of their covers were released on things not available in the US.

[Thor]

do you have rebel yell that shoud be funny.
Yeah, sure. What's your email?

Yeah, sure. What's your email?

This Number of the Beast cover is amazing! Every song is a great remake, Labrie does a decent job, and Petruccis tone blows Dave and Adrian's out of the water. Gangland is hilarious!!! It's jazz for gods sake!!

I think Hallowed Be Thy Name is amazing, I'm extremely impressed by all of this.

[Shadows Within]

im alsways impressed with dream theater a guy from berklee is going to be preping my 14yo friend for berklee and hes supposedly jammed with wylde, laiho yngwie and petrucci. Its crazy that hes only 14 and being preped for college hes a great guitarist though he just needs to do more styles he likes zakk a little too much but i got him into COB and hes been doing needled 24/7 and sixpounder.

[Huber]

Where are all these covers coming from? They sound very good.

The band does quite good on Hallowed Be Thy Name, but are you tone deaf? LaBrie sounds AWFUL on that track. He CANNOT do Bruce at ALL. It's hilariously bad...

The CoF cover wasn't half bad. I liked how they made it more like the live version...they sped it up a bit.

[repcak]

The new CoB is out now and nobody is discussing it... as far as i see/read.
what are your opinions on "Are you dead,yet?".

cause i don't know what do think, when i wanna be serious.... should i say its horrible or masterpiece. on the one hand their songs are very complex but where the hell is the old good power metal? they got soo... progressive!?
and there isn't a song that kicka$$

[IheartSP]

I meant LaBrie was good for a cover. I think he sometimes hits some Bruce notes but sometimes sounds bad. It's hard to impersonate someone like that, he doesn't fail as miserably as you say.

Repcak I hate AYDY if you are curious.

Think outside the box. :) Don't think, "how good of a power metal album is this?", because that will make you hate it. Obviously this is not power metal, so comparing it to Hatebreeder or FtR doesn't really do it justice. Instead, just think, "how good of a heavy metal album is this?". I think if you do, you'll take notice of the creativity and great writing that went into the album. In Your Face scared the hell out of me when I first heard it, but I've come to accept and even love the new style.

[repcak]

yeah.
thats it. i wanted to have a next hatebreeder, but on HCDR their style was changing and so on their new record... its not the old CoB anymore, its something new.
it is an awesome recording, these guys have a lot of talent; i only haven't listened to the record too often, so i still have no opinion on it... but i am sure, i will love it in the end. how said: their songs are more complex now and you have to listen more carefull to get the whole effect... :thumb:

You're right, these guys do have a whole bunch of talent. They just aren't using it to their full potential like they used to.

[Shattered_Future]

One of the only gripes i have with Are You Dead Yet?, besides that Bodom's music is really boring for me now (ALL of it), is every song starts on a C chord...

[alphamonkey]

My friend sent him some comment thingy on his myspace (i'm almost sure it's really Alexi, but who knows) since I don't have one. He told him to make albums that sounded the way they used to and Alexi said he'd take it into consideration.

You're right. Bands that play in the same key for a whole album takes away from it's cool factor. Changing keys keeps the album going and doesn't make all the songs sound the same.

[Shadows]

I think the variation used with the drums/guitar/keyboards keeps it from sounding repetitive from song to song.

[Thor]

I think the variation used with the drums/guitar/keyboards keeps it from sounding repetitive from song to song.
Well sometimes Bodom uses these the same as well.

Drums - really fast double bass
Guitar - shred solos in every song that sound alike
Keyboards - incredibly fast solos that sound alike

These happen in pretty much every Bodom song.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Does anyone know when exactly "Are You Dead Yet?" will be released in the United States? I have been waiting so patiently like the rest of you, but my patience is so short. I am only half excited. Unlike the rest of you, my favorite album is completely "Hate Crew Deathroll". I am just scared to see how much CoB has changed from that. I think it really blows that Alexi has tuned EVERYTHING to dropped-C, but maybe I will accept it and just hope he goes back to 1 step down. I hope this album is still as complex as HCDR...

[Thor]

^^^
October 23rd. Mark your calendar.

Tons of people on here have leaked versions of it already, including me.

He tuned to drop C for most all of HCDR.

Dude, that statement was so broad it could apply to nearly every metal band. :lol:

[PsychoticFlubber]

$hiT... I don't know if I have that kind of patience. Nope. I don't. But I have to wait. I refuse to download that cd, I prefer owning it and supporting CoB.

[PsychoticFlubber]

He tuned to drop C for most all of HCDR.

Nope. The only songs he did dropped-C for I believe are just "Angels Don't Kill" and "Sixpounder".

[Shadows]

Nope. The only songs he did dropped-C for I believe are just "Angels Don't Kill" and "Sixpounder".
Hmmm...looking at tabs, you seem to be right. Regardless, the tuning shouldn't have any influence on what you think of the album. It's how he uses it that counts.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Hmmm...looking at tabs, you seem to be right. Regardless, the tuning shouldn't have any influence on what you think of the album. It's how he uses it that counts.

Sure, I know. I just keep thinking about all of the other bands that use dropped tunings. Most just are so careless of what they play. I just hope Alexi doesn't start playing strictly heavy open chords, or just stupid things like Daron of SOAD plays. But, I know Alexi wouldn't do that. I must only hope it sounds as awsome as HCDR.

[IheartSP]

I think all the riffs on the album are stupidly heavy and all sound extremely alike cause they are just basic drop C riffs.

[Matas]

whoever said Kalmah started in 1999, you're wrong... they were around way before that but they were called Ancestor, it had the two Kokko brothers in it just like Kalmah today. I believe they started in 1991 from what i remember

about AYDY, when is it released in Canada? same as the states? cause if thats the case it'll be a long month :s
Also, I find it funny how many people are shocked by this ''new style''. i mean its obvious you could see it coming in HatecrewDeathroll... that album alone is a completely different style than their earlier ones, and then they toured with ''metal'' bands like Lamb of God (lol) and Fear Factory... now with Trivium... i just find that pretty sad. at least they're touring with Amon Amarth, which is actually a metal band. anyway, the point is that its been obvious since hcdr that they were heading in a completely new direction.

as for the album itself... i heard Bastards of Bodom, and its pretty kick ***. so is Trashed Lost and Strungout, and If you want peace prepare for war

[Shadows]

Kalmah started in 1991, but they were death metal back then. They didn't go power metal until many years afterward.
But, I know Alexi wouldn't do that. I must only hope it sounds as awsome as HCDR.
Just think Sixpounder type stuff with less lead guitar (except the solos) and tons more keyboard use.

[IheartSP]

Kalmah did start in 1999. Ancestor was a completely different genre of music I don't think it really counts.

[Shadows Within]

[Shadows]

What would be a good question to ask?
Ask him what kind of active humbuckers Alexi uses.

/trick question, as Alexi only uses one passive EMG

[MRDuCran]

Why would Alexi have a myspace account, hates the internet.

[Shadows]

It could've been one or more of the other band members.

[MRDuCran]

Maybe. Hey, Metal_Head_617, post the link so we all can check it out.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Wow... neither of those can be Alexi. Or at least I REALLY doubt it. As far as I know, I am pretty sure he is still married to Kimberly...

[MRDuCran]

Theres a few more on there too but the answers for the profile questions don't match up to Alexi so they're obviously fake too.

[blue3]

Hah okay then. And I don't think he's married still.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Hah okay then. And I don't think he's married still.

Oh... I didn't know he isn't married. Oh well, I don't know much about Alexi's personal life anyway...

[MRDuCran]

If he was married, wouldn't he have a wedding ring on?

[Hells Bells]

If you ever noticed a snake tattoo on Alexi's left hand, that's his wedding ring. Kim has one too.

[MRDuCran]

So he's never had an actual ring?

[zerosk8er1988]

I thought they got divorced...

[blue3]

Yeah, they're now separated. Bad idea to get a tattoo of a wedding ring..

[MRDuCran]

Does anyone else think shes a bit ugly, especially compared to Alexi (no i'm not gay).

Its Kimberly Goss

[repcak]

and who is kimberly goss??

[Shattered_Future]

Lead singer for Sinergy.

[Hells Bells]

And Alexi Laiho's wife, people have been talking about that in this thread for the past couple pages.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimberly_Goss

[Shadows]

Ex wife. I'm surpised they are still able to do Sinergy after they split up. I would've left the band due to awkwardness and discomfort.

[repcak]

ah... i have to check Sinergy out, when i will have more time... thx

[Hells Bells]

Yeah, I was wondering about that too...then again you don't know what terms they ended the relationship on.

[Shattered_Future]

Not yet...it comes out sometime in October.

[FlyingPaul_83]

What genre would you call these guys?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Power Metal with harsh vocals

[FlyingPaul_83]

Thats exactly what I told this kid and he went off saying how they have absolutely no pwer metal influence at all, and that his vocals are pansy.

we were discussing Hatebreeder.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Just eat him and be done with it.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Does anyone think there will ever be official tab books. I just wonder because Alexi had done videos, and has had columns in magazines where he himself shown everyone the correct way to play stuff... maybe he will make official tab books if he ever has time... well... I can only hope...

[Thor]

Power Metal with harsh vocals
Quoted for truth. Every Bodom fan must know this.

Possibly, but I doubt it. They're just not popular at enough. It wouldn't be Alexi anyway - for those "official" tab books, it's not done by the artists themselves, it's done by other people who are paid to transcribe the band's music.

[Huber]

Quoted for truth. Every Bodom fan must know this.

It's only true for like two albums anyways.

what do u mean?

It's only true for like two albums anyways.
Actually, it's true for all albums except AYDY.

Follow the Reaper? That's their most Scandinavian power metal album ever. HCDR was a little less, but it was still definitely power metal.

[IheartSP]

I think Something Wild - FTR were all definately power metal albums. HCDR is debatable, there is certainly influence but not necesarily enough to call it powermetal.

[Thor]

I think Something Wild - FTR were all definately power metal albums. HCDR is debatable, there is certainly influence but not necesarily enough to call it powermetal.
I wouldn't call HCDR power metal, I think it's just generic metal. This also goes with their new album.

[Shadows]

HCDR is power metal. It has stuff like Needled 24/7, and has tons of cheesy lead guitar and keyboard thrown everywhere into every song.

Well I guess you could say that was power metal, but the lyrics aren't fantasy based like Rhapsody.

[Shadows]

Well I guess you could say that was power metal, but the lyrics aren't fantasy based like Rhapsody.
CoB never had cheesy lyrics, it was always the hilarious violence/aggression/hate stuff that gave them the "heavy metal in your face!" appearence.

[flamesofbodom]

The lyrics were never fantasy based. This band is about the music, which is certainly power metal

[Metallion#666]

Whatever they are they kick A s s, but i beleive they're Black/death metal instrumentally and black/power vocally. By the way rhapsody is really stupid.

[IheartSP]

Metallion666 expect to get banned soon unless you read the rules. That was a really dumb and uneducated post.

First off, you should have a mild understanding of genres. Besides Something Wild, there is no black metal in Bodom, and Something Wild only has small hints of it. Death Metal? That's just gotta be a joke, The vocals also have no power metal in them at all, I don't know what you think powermetal vocals are, but if you think that's what they are you are crazy, Rhapsody's vocals are powermetal vocals.

Second of all don't blatantly bash bands without backup. Whether you think Rhapsody is stupid or not your gonna sound dumb saying it like that.

[Thor]

The lyrics were never fantasy based. This band is about the music, which is certainly power metal
Well that's not always the case, Iced Earth bases their songs around lyrics all of the time.

Horror Show was based around lryics, mind you.

[AA-12]

Black/death metal instrumentally and black/power vocally.
Just add in power metal and remove black in the instrumental part.

By the way rhapsody is really stupid.

Rhapsody > Most bands.

[IheartSP]

*irrelivance*

Am I the only Iced Earth fan who thinks Horror Show was like way better than the other albums? I've only heard two songs so maybe I can't judge, but I hate Barlows vocals on every album besides that one. On that album they are completely different, and I think much much more powerful. I've heard Wolf and Dracula which are two of the best songs I've ever heard by a powermetal band. No one ever seems to mention them though and always go on about A Question of Heaven or some song like that, which I am not too fond of.

[metalhead_matt]

sorry, but children of bodom are classed as power metal all the way in my book.

I know. I really like Iced earth, but the songs are about American history...=cheesy.

How is that cheesy? Have you taken a US History or Government class? American History is full of remarkable events. Most very heartfelt. Being serious and writing lyrics about that isn't cheesy.

[flamesofbodom]

Im amazingly sick of US History. Its way too repetitive, maybe b/c ive taken it for 9 years?

I live in such a liberal community so every history teacher I have is a left wing nutcase and they love me because I wear Rage Against the Machine shirts all the time.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Does anyone have uploads for the Rebel Yell and Sepultura cover?

He is...he has a better range, but him doing a Hetfield impression is like having Ashlee Simpson mimic Angela Gossow...it just ain't right.

You and your Angela. :lol:

Haha.

I think I was banned for trying to start a pro-aryan modship and removing all non white members.

Are you serious?

I think Bodom are far superior songwriters to Kalmah, and that is most of the reason why they are so much popular. I like Kalmah but there really is no comparison in my mind. Same case with Norther, it's similar but changed a little but, but just doesn't add up to what Bodom's got.

I think so too. I always put them all in the same category...they are the same kind of music, but none of them can come close to Bodom and Alexi.


I think Wintersun is the only real contender with Bodom, and they are almost too different to really compare. If Wintersun's next album is anything like the first, I'll have to say they are better than Bodom, the first album was better than either Hatebreeder or FTR imo.

Do you? Fanboy... :p
Again, I don't think they can match up or even "contend" with Bodom.

They are awesome, but not better

Agreed.

Just shoot for Bed of Razors and work your way up.

So what's the colour scheme for the Are You Dead Yet? album for anyone that has it already???

I should already have it in my cd player now but the stores just suck balls so i have to wait about a week for them to order it.

Well looking at the album cover it just seems like it's grey and black.

[MRDuCran]

I see, funnily enough I imagined it to be that colour.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Thank you, this will actually help me a lot. :)

Anytime. ;)

Iheart- Likewise....I love that place. Working on your song reviews last night and today (hopefully)

MRD - It's a bit greenish/grey and black I think.

I already pre-ordered!
Amazon.com has an import available for 16.50 or something along those lines, shipping included (if you are like me and chose the cheapest method of shipping). :D

[Matas]

yea i guess im going to have to order... the stores around my place wont have them in stock for a little while, but thats to be expected since they never have any cob in stock :(

[Format C: For Cortex]

"Are You Dead Yet" is brilliant!!! It actually made me a reborn COB fan! It reminded me of the sheer awesomeness of songs like "Every Time I Die". Catchy riffs aplenty!

[Matas]

I heard a few songs off the album, and the only one i really didnt like was In Your Face, those lyrics are so horrible :p but it will most likely grow on me

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Does it have the lyrics for it in the booklet then??

I found that the Sixpounder lyrics don't sound too accurate. I have a live vid and he sounds like he's saying something completely different from the CD version.

[Metallion#666]

good song though

[Shadows]

Darklyrics isn't always the most reliable, especially for bands like CoB who don't include all the lyrics with the album. Many of the songs listed there are done by people who listened to the album and wrote down what they thought they heard, which never flies well with metal vocalists.

[Metallion#666]

Cryptopsy just gave up on lyrics altogether

[Shadows]

Judging by Lord Worm's vocals on Once Was Not, which are even more incomprehensible than ever, I'll have to agree with you.

[Metallion#666]
