Children Of Bodom

[Taste_My_Scythe]

geez, you newb, what r u talkin 'bout mann


Hey, leave powerchord alone... :lol: ...and learn how to spell.

I have a question, is this the official Children of Bodom thread? If so, are we making a cover band?

[Scoot]

It's not official because the mod's aren't going to make another official thread. But it is the largest, so it's considered the official.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

So are we making a cover band?

[Scoot]

Hmmm. A possibility.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

(I love the avatar by the way) I don't know, I heard something about each official thread making a cover band for a contest, and I can kinda play some Children of Bodom stuff, so I figured I'd check it out.

[Scoot]

One of my creations. My other one is with that ****ed up little paperclip from MS Word.

Alexi shreds like Vishnu, so it's gonna be hella hard to copy him. For vocals, a nice mucus-garbled voice will sound perfect.

[IheartSP]

I'd love to play rythym guitar for a cover band, I've got a podxt so I'm all set for recording. I'm not quite good enough to play lead, but I have a few Bodom solos under my belt. Some of the leads are way too tough for me tho.

[IheartSP]

Hmm I just looked at the track listing for the new Children of Bodom cd, Are You Dead Yet? It sounds like they still are going the HCDR way, a big letdown in my books. Although a decent album, it seems much thrashier, almost a metalcore sound because of the "we hate you" attitude and the lower sound. Just judging by the song names they still seem like they are making "pissed off" music as opposed to their older cds which were all about cool melodies. I'm hoping they actually incorporate some kind of classical sound like in their first 3 cds, and they stop playing heavier hcdr type stuff. But judging from the song titles, it's another HCDR, and the Trashed, Lost, & Strungout EP didn't make me think otherwise.

[ArcLite]

I'm not expecting them to ever make another FTR. I think we better just get used to the newer sound. Personally, I love both styles. I have a "driving" compilation CD I made that has an old and new song every other track. It's like a best of both worlds, and I love both.

[Daven]

They are the greatest band around IMO.

:lol:

[Scoot]

I'm attempting Kissing the Shadows on lead.

My hands will be smoking craters when I'm done.

I read this same post over at MA, is that you? :eek:

[IheartSP]

yeah it is me

[RCA]

Thought so. :)

[IheartSP]

The forum their is way too slow, but as far as the site goes it should be regarded as a religious book. I say the name changes to the Metal Bible intead of encyclopedia.

I don't know about the classical sound but I did hear they were going to have more Industrial elements on AYDY.

[IheartSP]

I didn't say they were gonna, I just wish they would incorporate a classical sound again.

[whatduffhuck7]

from listening to haterbreeder then hatecrew, i hope they keep going in the way of better vocals, the vocals on hatecrew are much better than haterbreeder

[Scoot]

I heard that the name was inspired by a murder, is that right?

[AA-12]

Lake Bodom murder, yep.

[Shadows]

I'm attempting Kissing the Shadows on lead.

My hands will be smoking craters when I'm done.
I know the feeling. I can play every part of that song except the solos, which I haven't attempted yet. Playing CoB leads is a stretch for me since I haven't really been playing very long but the results are both painful in the hands yet rewarding to the ears.

As for Alexi's vocals, I hate the way they're going. He's changed to more of a conventional type of scream instead of his black metal type vocals. That kills me. I would love for Alexi to sound the way he did on Sometihng Wild again.

[Scoot]

What's the tuning for Kissing the Shadows?

[Shattered_Future]

What's the tuning for Kissing the Shadows?

D standard, if im not mistaken...thats DGCFAD, case you needed to know.

I personally liked the FTR styled music better than Hatecrew...o well. As long as it's still Bodom. :)

[IheartSP]

The leads in Kissing the Shadows are really tough if you ask me, I am a bit sloppy with then but I have it. I wouldn't attempt the solos, I'm a novice sweeper. The best sweeping I can do is Warheart and even that is a bit sloppy.

[Shadows]

Most all CoB is played in standard D tuning, except lately they've been dabbling in drop C.

And FTR owns anything they've ever done afterward, although there is no such thing as bad Bodom.

[voodooramen]

Bed Of Razors is teh awesomeness

[Shattered_Future]

Wasn't Sixpounder in drop C? It kinda sounds like it...

FTR owns EVERYTHING that Bodom did...that is their highest point.

[peddlerofdeath]

I like Hatcrew best but Ive only listened to FTR a few times since I bought it.

[The Cynic]

Wasn't Sixpounder in drop C? It kinda sounds like it...

I think that was the only song on HCDR that was in drop C. And yes, FTr is Bodoms best album.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I think that was the only song on HCDR that was in drop C. And yes, FTr is Bodoms best album.

Yeah, that was drop C. I play that song. I completely agree about Follow the Reaper. It was the first Bodom album that I bought, and I was hooked after that. My favorite song off there has to be Children of Decadence.

[IheartSP]

I think that was the only song on HCDR that was in drop C. And yes, FTr is Bodoms best album.
Angel's Don't Kill was also in drop C.

[Lateralias]

FTR owns EVERYTHING that Bodom did...that is their highest point.

Agreed.

[IheartSP]

I like Hatebreeder more than FTR and Something Wild is good in it's own way, but not as good as the other 2.

[Shadows]

FtR is the best - but the dark, atmospheric feel of Something Wild is incredible. I would put it on the same level as FtR. Classic Bodom...which we may never see again. They seemed to have changed their style right after debuting. Keyboards are now used for melody instead of atmosphere. That's too bad, because I'd love to have more tracks like Deadnight Warrior or In the Shadows.

[Scoot]

I just listened to three new Bodom tracks and I've got to say I didn't like them as much as the older Bodom. It seems that Alexi has lost some of his songwriting talent while dealing with that injury (don't ask me how that happened).

[Silenius]

Tracks off "Are You Dead Yet"?

[Shattered_Future]

I don't like newer Bodom as much...it isn't as melodic, and chock full of great solos. It seems as if they dropped the melodicness for a more brutal heaviness...

[Silenius]

Sixpounder has a solo thats melodic as hell. Alexi said that on Hate Crew he was trying to make his rhythm writing better so that explains a bit.

[Shattered_Future]

Sixpounder has a solo thats melodic as hell. Alexi said that on Hate Crew he was trying to make his rhythm writing better so that explains a bit.

Yea, but if you compare, say, Sixpounder and Children Of Decadence, it sounds completely different. One's got the melodic edge, the other the heaviness.

[Squirrel]

Some misuse of the terms melodic, brutal and heavy here ..

[Silenius]

Yea, but if you compare, say, Sixpounder and Children Of Decadence, it sounds completely different. One's got the melodic edge, the other the heaviness.
Yeah, I know what you mean. From best to worst I'd arrange the albums like this:

Hatebreeder
Hate Crew Deathroll
Follow the Reaper
Something Wild

[whatduffhuck7]

Yeah, I know what you mean. From best to worst I'd arrange the albums like this:

Hatebreeder
Hate Crew Deathroll
Follow the Reaper
Something Wild
exacly how i would do it too. but it put trashed lost and strung out before something wild.

[Shadows Within]

everything on follow the reaper for me i havent heard any others though to tell you the truth, i just got into them a month ago but there incredible alexi is bringing back shred.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Where?! Post the links!!

[Kreator2112]

wow bodom is so played out now of days...it isnt worthy of mention anymore, the songs are repetitive and dull, its one boring synth intro and verse after another.

Norther>>>>bodom

[Shadows]

Yeah, I know what you mean. From best to worst I'd arrange the albums like this:

Hatebreeder
Hate Crew Deathroll
Follow the Reaper
Something Wild
What!? HCDR and TL&S before Something Wild? Man, I'm starting to think I'm the only one who likes Something Wild.

And if there are three new tracks available and someone doesn't post the link I'll be pissed.

wow bodom is so played out now of days...it isnt worthy of mention anymore, the songs are repetitive and dull, its one boring synth intro and verse after another.

Norther>>>>bodom
Norther = Bodom ripoff

They're a good band, but too close to Bodom's style to merit much. I'm also offended that you would call Bodom "played out". Someone please listen to the title track from TL&S and then tell me they suck now.

[Silenius]

wow bodom is so played out now of days...it isnt worthy of mention anymore, the songs are repetitive and dull, its one boring synth intro and verse after another.

Norther>>>>bodom
I love Norther but their songs are alot more alike than CoB's (and the reason you don't like CoB is because they are repetitive?)

[Silenius]

I hate the production/tone on Something Wild otherwise it would be in the top 2.

[Kreator2112]

norther arent repetitive..for the most part, atleast its not all synth crap (ie: angels dont kill). frozen sky and beneath kill everything cob has ever put out.

[Shadows]

I hate the production/tone on Something Wild otherwise it would be in the top 2.
To me, the Something Wild production was what made old Bodom special. SW had a raw, darker and more atmospheric feel. It was like incredible black/power metal. But I guess I'm the only one. Oh well, **** happens...

[Silenius]

norther arent repetitive..for the most part, atleast its not all synth crap (ie: angels dont kill). frozen sky and beneath kill everything cob has ever put out.
Their riffs are alot more alike, power/root 3rd/root 4th cord, mute, chord stab. Almost every song has a riff based off that formula.

I know where you're coming from I just can't get the right vibe when I listen to it. :)

[Shadows]

I agree that Norther aren't repetitive. I actually like them quite a bit. But the thing that always got me about them was that they used WAY too much synth...which is funny, because you're saying you like them for using less synth then Bodom.



Everybody go over to the top 100 metal bassists competition and vote for Henkka NOW.

[Silenius]

I love Norther but if you know how to play all their songs on guitar you'll sart to see the similarities all of them have.

[Shattered_Future]

Dismissing an entire genre? For shame...

Go listen to some Nightwish and tell me they aren't good.

And I don't like Norther as much...too much synths. Decent band, but Bodom is better.

Norther > Nightwish X 12308586905760687

:p

[Kreator2112]

well yes, because i can do that ;d, hammerfall - glory to the brave = very unhetero

[Kreator2112]

by the way, stefan fimmers>henkka blacksmith

[Silenius]

by the way, stefan fimmer>henkka
I agree.

(Henkkas band is better than Stefans though but not by much.)

[Shadows]

power metal is gay anyways, death to all false metal
I hate you. Power metal is one of the only pure metal genres left. Especially now that every other death metal band has started using breakdowns and black metal produced Satyricon - Volcano. Keep in mind that power metal was the genre that gave birth to metal.

but I agree that Stefan Fimmers > Henkka. Both are excellent bands. Necrophagist is proabably the best death metal out right now.

[flamesofbodom]

Norther > Nightwish X 12308586905760687

:p

Wrong. %100

[Silenius]

power metal is gay anyways, death to all false metal
So thrash is real metal whilst power is not?

[Kreator2112]

how did power metal 'give birth' to metal? this is highly arguable mind you

[Silenius]

Wrong. %100
Nightwish is the **** of Power Metal.

/I know that must of you guys like 'em but I hate them.

[Shadows]

how did power metal 'give birth' to metal? this is highly arguable mind you
I suppose it is...the first metal bands (Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, excluding Sabbath) were basically early power metal. But like you said this is all arguable.

[flamesofbodom]

Dont matter. Power metal is just as good. Only difference is vocals. Everything else is still amazing composed music.

To the above: Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Iced Earth, etc. are pretty much the foundation for power metal and i love those bands to death. Some are also the basis for melodic metal

[Kreator2112]

im gonna say black sabbath (doom) was among the very first, (1966)

[Shadows]

Sabbath was most likely the first real metal...which makes me wonder why there isn't more Doom Metal around today.

[Kreator2112]

there are few indeed, wierd how there are more death bands, while death metal came out in like 84ish, and doom came out 18 years earlier...i guess more people relate to other genres, although its all based on trends anyhow

[Shattered_Future]

Death metal is much easier to get into than doom metal, i think. That may be the reason why so many death metal bands are present. The set formula is easy to follow.

[IheartSP]

I have only heard 2 Nightwish songs, and the vocals I cannot get into and the music is really boring to me. It's arranged nicely and stuff but I have to have good guitar riffs and leads, and they are much more based on keyboard. I love Norther but I don't think they are as original as Bodom is, although more melodic. You can't compare Norther and Nightwish they are 2 very different bands, so I don't know why you people were bothering.

To Kreator2112, stop being such a jerk to everyone, don't go into a Bodom thread and diss them you'll just be flamed.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Guitar based Nightwish...hmmm...

You could try Romanticide...thats very guitar-centric.

[IheartSP]

I'll check it out but Nightwish type stuff just doesn't seem like my thing. I'm into melodic power metal like Stratovarius, and I think it's even better when combined with Speed Metal like Bodom, Norther, Kalmah, Skyfire, and Wintersun (The best band ever btw cause they are viking too).

Mkay. I like all the other bands you've mentioned, but I keep hearing stuff about this Skyfire. Anyone got any mp3s?

[IheartSP]

I'll upload a song. They are like CoB vocally and some of the rythyms are similar, but the overall sound is a bit more progressive.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I see. You know, I was reading this article on some website...(well known, I just can't remember the name) that Bodom was going more progressive on their new album. Forgive me, but what exactly is progressive?

[IheartSP]

Progressive is sort of hard to describe but I'll try...

It means that there is less song structure and things flow a little more smoothly. There may still be a recurring theme but it "progresses" from one section to another. Listen to some Dream Theater like The Glass Prison to see what I am talking about.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Mmmm. Not a fan of Dream Theater. I've heard some of their stuff. Let me see if I can find the site, though.


Ahh!!! News! New single! :D sweet!

Yes there is. I still haven't gotten it yet. Has anyone seen Trashed in Helsinki besides me? I want to laugh about it with someone!

[IheartSP]

Scythe, how did you like the Skyfire song?

[Taste_My_Scythe]

It was awesome! I'm going to request some right now on the YSI thread. Thanks tons

That was hilarious! I wish it was longer though

Thats one of my fav. songs by them :thumb:

[Taste_My_Scythe]

That was hilarious! I wish it was longer though

Yay!!! You saw it? Wasn't it awesome?! I loved the part when Alexi spraypaints himself in the eye! That is so like me it was scary. And when they are rolling around at Ruttopuisto. Roope was so hammered I couldn't understand a thing he was saying. :lol:

...hell, I loved the whole thing.

[flamesofbodom]

Yup.

"oh not a pentagram on the amp!"

"What are you gonna do?"

"Turn it into a vegetable"

Also when they went to Lake Bodom to f*ck around was pretty sweet. And i dont get how they are able to drink so much; they were barely wasted even when they pointed it out.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Yup.

"oh not a pentagram on the amp!"

"What are you gonna do?"

"Turn it into a vegetable"

Also when they went to Lake Bodom to f*ck around was pretty sweet

No no no! It was

"hey!! No pentagram on the monster!"

"what should I do then?"

"turn it into some....****ing vegetarian symbol or something!"

"stupid *** mother****ers..."

:lol: I love that. Even though I'm a vegetarian. Alexi has such a great smile, remember when he almost dips his bubble blower into his beer? :lol: I also love how he says "yes, as a matter of fact, thank you very much" all the time. It's great. :D

[flamesofbodom]

No no no! It was

Ok but im a guy so im going to go along with the second part of that sentence.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Ok but im a guy so im going to go along with the second part of that sentence.

:p It was great though. Watching them play around in the snow at Lake Bodom and when they get all that cash they go and buy all that booze and spray stuff and weird hats. They would be so awesome to hang out with.

I just sent them a giant link saying how much my band and I loves them and I would be so psyched if they actually responded. The site isn't made by them it's just the biography from the original site, but I think they are contacted about it and probably respond to some of the mail. I knew it wasn't them when it said they are a Black Metal band, Alexi doesn't even like Black Metal lol.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

hey since it wont let me sign up could someone if they send another message to them mabye tell them to get there asses to maine :P

[IheartSP]

They'll be in US probably in late 2005 and 2006 for their new album tour. Last time they were here in CT was October 2004, I wasn't a Bodom fan then though, so that's too bad.

[Shattered_Future]

Ah yes, Bodom's myspace account...

Somehow, my friend has them as 2 of his 12 friends on that thing...i bet he just did something with it.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

TMS, here is the link. It's really cool.

Twas a sweet video...a few slipups in some spots, but overall pretty good?

Did you think Alexander's guitar should've been turned up a bit more? You could barely hear him in some portions of the video...

Yeah, I noticed that; definately. I love watching Alexi play....do whatever. Forgive my girliness, but the man is a god. :thumb: I loved the beginning...flipping the hair forward. Niiiiice.

Hah. He kinda looks a bit girly himself IMO, compared to the rest of the band...

The man can play though...thats all that matters.

[Shadows Within]

one of the reasons i thought alexi was going to be an *** hole cause of that whole john petrucci thing in guitar world not being crazy on doesent make you less of a guitarist. yeah he does look kinda girly besides the whole double chin thing :rolleyes: but i like the way him and the keyboardist do switchoffs and double leads thats gotta get confusing

[Shattered_Future]

Didn't we go over this already? :confused:

September 19th is the tentative release date.
btw what is the new album callled can i get some demos of it or atleast news?

[flamesofbodom]

www.scythes-of-bodom.com (http://www.endlesswar.net/SOB/site.php?lang=en)

Plenty of news here

[IheartSP]

My band is now a friend of Bodom's yay

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

Children of Bodom are the future of heavy metal, never cease to impress and amaze me both in the studio and live.

[IheartSP]

I hope they are the future of mainstream american metal. As far as Finland goes, they are the present, they are on the radio and everything there. They have started a giant movement of melodic power/speed bands though, and hopefully it sweeps America. You can really see it as bands like Imperanon pop up, who see Bodom the same way we do. Hopefully bands like this wipe out Metalcore and give us something good to listen to.

[iAmCam]

I'm just curious to what bass(s) Henkka Seppälä uses the most? Anyone know?

[Taste_My_Scythe]

btw what is the new album callled can i get some demos of it or atleast news?

The new album is called Are You Dead Yet? and it's released September 12th in Finland and Sept. 19th everywhere else. The single In Your Face comes out on August something. Check the links I posted above.

Check on Scythes of Bodom under Henkka, the link is posted above. They should have it.




Silent Death - You ****ing OWN for posting that link last night. I didn't get to watch it all last night, but I just did now and it's awesome. They played one of the best songs off Hate Crew Deathroll (Lil' Bloodred Riding Hood) and Henkka took his shirt off. :D :thumb: Thanks again.

Yeah, no problem. That did rock didn't it.

[flamesofbodom]

Im watching it now. Its so awesome, except Alexander's guitar is like off or something in the first song...It skipped like half the concert...cool one of my favs off the new one-Lil Blood Red Ridin hood....and finish w/ Hate Crew. Not too shabby for a small portion

[reidster90]

Alexi Laiho is an amazing guitarist
and there the one band that can make keyboard METAL
which other bands have failed at :cough:Bleedingthrough:cough:

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I know, the sound was off...Alexi's voice is supposed to be just as loud as the guitars or a little louder. It was way off. Ah, so you're a Lil Bloodred Riding Hood fan too, huh? :thumb:

EDIT: Have I mentioned that I love your avatar? I think I have it actually...

It sounds like hes playing with his amp off...

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I'm going to see if I can find you guys the clip where they play Sixpounder at Wacken Open Air. It ROCKS. But it's online streaming...

EDIT: DUDES! Everyone go to the Scythes Of Bodom homepage to see the coverart for Are You Dead Yet? and the new promo pictures!

Alexi got rid of the beard! :lol:

EDIT2: The board isn't displaying and it won't let me in, so I'm going to go rip the Sixpounder clip from a cd that I burned it onto and I'll see if it works then.

[flamesofbodom]

Yeah im a big fan of that song.

And thank you

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Got it! I'm going to have the Sixpounder clip uploaded for you guys in a second. Watch this post.

(and forget what I said earlier about it being a streaming video. I guess it's not because I burned it and it works on my comp which has no internet...so... *shrugs*)

[Shadows Within]

I'm just curious to what bass(s) Henkka Seppälä uses the most? Anyone know?
i would have to say an ESP like alexis they probally biggest guys with esp next to dave mustaine im just wondering how alexi gets such a high pich tone on his guitar i wonder if its his pickup or an effect pedal or something it doesent sound like pinch harmonics either.

EDIT: alexander does most of the high pitched stuff
EDIT2: i just watched trashed lost and strung out video and alexander is using a dimebag series body but it has a ESP head stock either they chaned there head stocks or esp likes to copu BC riches, randy rhoads Jacksons and dimebag darrell deans....

[flamesofbodom]

Its not Alex anymore. He left for personal reasons. Now Roope Latvala is the new guitarist, not to mention one of Alexi's favs

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Yes, and he was the ex-guitarist of Finnish powermetal band Stone. I actually like seeing him live better than Alexander. I don't know why...I just like him I guess. Alexander has good chops though.

Here it is! Enjoy!

oh then thast would explain this video of him and the other guy doing something that would make yngwie proud him and the new guy or mabye it was alex cant tell how old it was....anyway they where doing a classic (not AC/DC classic either) but the ryth guitarist was doing some tapping parts and alexxi was doing all the arpeggio fills and what not its really cool though.

[Shadows Within]

That's right, I forgot. :rolleyes: Same here about the harmonics. I'm hoping that GuitarPro will be able to help me with the solos and stuff when I get my new guitar.

jesus you gfuys can actually play this stuff? closest iv gotten was the rythm

i meant the viking zakk wylde

Yes, I can play Sixpounder in it's entirety (except for the solos and bridge like I said). I can also play bits and pieces of Chokehold, Everytime I Die, Needled 24/7 and I'm working on Bed of Razors..it's coming along REALLY good thanks to GuitarPro and powerchord. :thumb:

And yeah, I meant THE Zakk Wylde. BLS, Sabbath....yeah.


Christ, I just watched the clip again. :D Love the nailpolish. Not to mention the little scythes on the guitar. \m/ I love that part when it zooms in and you can see Janne playing and singing along. It's awesome. I'd have to say he's right up there with Alexi in hottness.

[Mr. Squiggles]

[flamesofbodom]

Have you ever heard of powertabs TMS or powerchord?

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Yeah, GuitarPro rocks huh?

Hell yes. I've been playing Bed of Razors for three (or four, I can't remember) days straight and it sounds pretty sweet.

Ok. So I've had a revelation. I'm going to double check the dates for Bodom at the House of Blues to make sure I got it right. Then I'm going to ask my parents....before Ozzfest....probably....if I can go to the show. Want to come? They won't let me go by myself. I'm going to beg. Seriously. It would make my life to see them live. If on the offchance that they do say "ok", Chrissy is coming too.

Have you ever heard of powertabs TMS or powerchord?

Nope. What's that?

[Mr. Squiggles]

Hell yeah, I would love to go. But that's going to take some time talking my mom into that.

[ArcLite]

Powertab is good because you can see both guitar parts at the same time, but you don't have all the other instruments. Half my love for GP4 is because I can make bass or key tracks for my own songs. Hey everyone :).

[Shadows Within]

Yeah I have heard of it but I have never used it. Is it good?
powertabs can be good depending on the tab you get like i got alice in chans them bones and when i went to my teacher he said the tabs all wrong (like metallicas sanitarium also) people that tab on there tend to do it the harder more confusing way

[flamesofbodom]

Its like GuitarPro but IMO a lot better. You dont have to keep switching instruments. I can get you the download link if you want to check it out. Also the people who tab the songs pretty much tab it perfectly.

They tab the keyboard solos too

[Mr. Squiggles]

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Mkay. How did you talk to them about Ozzfest? I think my mom might be tougher, but I don't know how your mom is on the subject, so...

Sure, If you could get me the link that would be great.

Yeah, I'd like to give it a shot.

Theres something called tablature and then there's musical theory. The more confusing way is probably the correct way since it follow the chord structures whereas in tabworld you dont play in chords. Thats why i like powertab b/c they write it correctly

http://powertabs.net/
Go down to links and click Official PT site then go to downloads and get the harmony-central one and then click download. The link i posted has all the tabs for the bands and you can even write your own songs and submit them to see what others think of your material.

[ArcLite]

Mkay. How did you talk to them about Ozzfest? I think my mom might be tougher, but I don't know how your mom is on the subject, so...

Wait, what is this? They're coming here? When, where, who, what, when....?

yeah that is the one cool part about PT

If you have XP it should work fine

[Taste_My_Scythe]

If you have XP it should work fine

Thats what I'm on now. My parent's comp is the only one with internet. My comp was recently upgraded to XP, but they took my internet away. Something about a messageboard pissed them off.

[flamesofbodom]

Same here. But once my parents get their new laptop, this one's mine with the internet. Oh yeah!

My parents dont let me go on that stuff either. They think ill get kidnapped by some dude b/c i go meet people i dont know :rolleyes:

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Same here. But once my parents get their new laptop, this one's mine with the internet. Oh yeah!

Mac OS 10.2.8... :p

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Mac OS 10.2.8... :p

Ah, ok. Awesome. I've always found them a little difficult to operate, but I think thats just because I'm so used to windows; it's all I've ever had. So can you use GuitarPro?

[Shattered_Future]

they are cool, but i read something about them somewhere that its all remaked classical stuff (just like dimmu borgir) so that should be pretty whack not to make your own melodies

I did that once...turned out to be the best thing i ever did.

Dimmu Borgir is extremely far from classical.

Also, CoB doesn't "remake" classical stuff at all.

[Shattered_Future]

Quite the cool 10 year old! :thumb:

Yes, it went great with my Creed and Nickelback cds. :p

Although i still like Creed...

[flamesofbodom]

What retard would say that?

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Yes, it went great with my Creed and Nickelback cds. :p



:lol: Yeah, I think we all liked one of those bands at some point. I had all the Creed albums and taped every Nickelback song that came on the radio. :lol:

[flamesofbodom]

Never liked Creed...Nickelback for about a few months...well i guess thats what you get when your first cd was Americana

[IheartSP]

Back when I was like 10 I liked plenty of crap like Blink 182 and Nickelback. But it happens to all of us, look where I am now.

[AA-12]

I don't like Creed at all, but Nickelback isn't all that bad.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I have to admit, quite a while ago, I thought that "Figured You Out" song was pretty catchy. But then again, people stare at you when you all of a sudden start singing "I like your pants around your feet" or however the song goes.

[IheartSP]

"Bodom" responded to my message on myspace saying they aren't really black metal but it was the closest myspace had, and thanks for the support. I'm sure it wasn't actually them though, I don't think they go online all too often.

Hmm. You never know though. I've got several pictures of them huddled around a comp. I still can't sign up for myspace.

[IheartSP]

Maybe but I think if it actually was them they'd have a little more to say. I asked a few questions that weren't answered because it probably wasn't Alexi.

Maybe but I think if it actually was them they'd have a little more to say. I asked a few questions that weren't answered because it probably wasn't Alexi.

What did you ask?

[AA-12]

I doubt it was them. The only band i've seen that handles their own stuff/responds personally is CKY.

Deron Miller from CKY signed my email up with gay ****. :lol:

Idk I just asked what future releases would be like, some advice for an aspiring guitarist and stuff like that.

Thats one of the things I would've asked.

[Mr. Squiggles]

Yeah, me too

I hope someday I'm a famous metal guitarist who can answer every fans mail

If you were metal, you probably wouldn't get too much fanmail though...

Yeah, but you probably couldn't belive the amount of e-mails those guys get a day. They probably couldn't answer them all if they tried.

I bet powerchord is right, Bodom probably gets hundreds of letters a day. I'd at least try and answer some of them and I'd still be on the net all the time posting here.

That would be cool.

Better some mail then no mail at all... :upset:

:lol: definately. I love getting mail. I usually don't though.

Hey Leah, did you know your at the top of the list for posts in this thread?

What?

[IheartSP]

It's about time someone on this site went pro though, we have so many good guitarist but most of them just record on their own with backing tracks. If we got people like The_Shredder a band they'd probably get a record deal. I used to hang around the guitar forum a lot and people like Shredder and MetalJonus are just plain amazing.

[Mr. Squiggles]

Yeah, those guys are really good. I would guess that they could get a record deal.

Have you heard Cain? I mentioned that Juice was my favorite Vai song and he uploaded himself playing it for me. It was amazing. The link should still be good maybe in the community thread.

[Mr. Squiggles]

Yeah thats true. Everytime I sign on your on already.

[IheartSP]

yeah the only time your not on scythe is in the wee hours of the morning

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Yeah thats true. Everytime I sign on your on already.

True, but I meant the Hate Crew thread. I was on until midnight last night talking with Alex, Cain and flamesofbodom on the Songs to impress girls thread. It was halarious. Seriously. Go there and read from page 19 until 21. :lol:
I had this wacky idea last night too. In some messageboards, there are groups, like everyone has the same thing on their user title. I though all the Bodom fans should have HATECREW on their user title. :lol: I get really weird when I'm tired.

yeah the only time your not on scythe is in the wee hours of the morning

Would if I could, probably. I come around maybe 9 am, but nothing interesting is going on; it's kinda dead.

[IheartSP]

There was a lot going on in this thread last night from 1-2

Here it is, but I can't find the song anywhere.

[IheartSP]

A few months ago I downloaded some song supposedly by Norther called Warlord, but it wasn't on any discographies so I figured it wasn't them. After countless lyric searches I found absolutely no matches. I looked on metal archives today cause I recently discovered the great site, and it is actually Norther is was from their demo. It doesn't sound like Norther, you could probably stick this song in Something Wild by Bodom and no one would even notice.

I hate that, when you go around looking for a song because you think it isn't by the right band. Norther does sound a lot like Bodom. I actually thought they were a sideproject or something when I first heard them.

[IheartSP]

Well I haven't heard too much from Death Unlimited but Mirror of Madness is a great album and really gives them a unique sound from Bodom. It is much slower, melodic, simple, and atmospheric. This song however was one of the first they ever recorded and it was just a Bodom ripoff, but still a good song.

I don't have any of their albums. I just have the songs people have uploaded me here. After I buy my guitar I plan on buying one of theirs, Kalmah, Stratovarius and Imperanon. Maybe Wintersun too.
