[King_Of_Terrors]

In response to roulette dares 3, ESP's are pretty good guitars. My Jackson is awesome, but I haven't played Ibanez guitars enought to really compare. However I am positive Jackson's are built better, and are of better quality.

Plus all the good guitar players play them :D

Except for my favorite, Jani, of course :rolleyes:

Passage to the reaper link anyone??? There you go...
The "drummer" who was playing with the spatulas was the best part.:cool:

[froeling]

cob is a great band, im going to see them in sweden in february! ;)

I hate Ibanez with a firey passion. I'll stick with my Jackson.

Looks like we've got another Bodom fan in our midst, crew. :)

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

well we need as many as we can get well have a whole freakin army situation before u know it!

[King_Of_Terrors]

Army situation?

[Shadows]

Army situation.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Really that's great, I completely understand now.

[Shattered_Future]

We'll all take up arms and cast down the heretics who promote false metal!

Ibanez is horrid...I'd much prefer my guitar. :)

Was naming a Nile song intentional?

[Shadows]

Of course it was. Only fools don't listen to Nile!

[MRDuCran]

\m/ I'm loving that new album.

[Thor]

Of course it was. Only fools don't listen to Nile!
Feels like a fool...:upset:

[King_Of_Terrors]

Annihilation Of The Wicked is great. My favorite song off there is Sacrifice Unto Sebek, the song right after Cast Down The Heritic.

Mike, what kind of guitar do you have?

[MRDuCran]

I love Sacrifice Unto Sebek, my fav song too. My jaw just dropped when I first saw that video. Dallas' last verse is amazing.
Also I love Cast Dow the Heretic and Lashed to the Slave Stick.

[King_Of_Terrors]

They have a video?

ALSO, can someone please send me War Of Razors?

[Shadows]

I'll send it to you now. Just hang on a minute.

[Thor]

Looks like ShadowsFallen beat me to the punch, oh well.

God, Tokyo Warhearts is so amazing.

[Shattered_Future]

Was naming a Nile song intentional?

Course...

I actually thought of a way to put 3 band references in there.

We shall heed a call to arms, and cast down the heretics who promote false metal!

A Call To Arms = Gospel Of The Horns, a DM band.
Cast Down The Heretic - Nile song
False Metal - Any power metal band, most notably Manowar, or Shadows Fall.

[King_Of_Terrors]

BEN - Mike already sent it!

[Shadows]

False Metal - Shadows Fall.
:( :( :( ?

BEN - Mike already sent it!
Alrighty then.

[MRDuCran]

They do play Towards Dead End on Tokyo Warhearts don't they?

[Thor]

Saying that Shadows Fall is false metal might cause ShadowsFallen hear to break down and cry. Be nice.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Yeah, Towards Dead End, it's the last song.

Suprisingly there is no encore! :eek:

[Shadows]

Saying that Shadows Fall is false metal might cause ShadowsFallen hear to break down and cry. Be nice.
Or it might cause me to prove the speaker wrong, thus causing him to break down and cry at how insanely metal Shadows Fall is.

Doesn't anyone here own Tokyo Warhearts? :confused:

[Thor]

*has Tokyo Warhearts*

[King_Of_Terrors]

War Of Razors isn't really what I expected. I figured it would be some crazy battle in between the keys and guitar. But Alexi just plays something then stops, silence for 3 seconds, then Janne does the same thing. It's still awesome though.

Deadnight Warrior is perfect to go afterward :D

[Shadows]

*has Tokyo Warhearts*
You downloaded/burned it didn't you? :angry:

[MRDuCran]

Cool, I have the video for that I think.

[Shattered_Future]

:( :( :( ?


Alrighty then.

No, on their new DVD (which shows why it was only 12 bucks), they have the slogan "Death To False Metal" (which tons of other bands have used) on the actual disc. That's what I meant.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Does anyone know if Headbangers Ball still comes on? I never got a chance to see it, and since I have sattelite I skipped ahead 2 days, and it wasn't showing at all. I did that for about a week, does it still come on?

[Jacaranda]

I think its still on it used to be on MTV2 at 10 pm. Wouldn't doubt if it got canned.

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

i think it might still come on i think i read in a recent interview that they had been on there or was featured on there or something like that so kp checking on it

[Thor]

You downloaded/burned it didn't you? :angry:
I traded for it. :upset:

[PsychoticFlubber]

Hmm... every time I get enough time to check up on this board, there are more and more pages, it's seems like no one here leaves this place. Do half of the people here even play guitar much? (I know some do, so chill).

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

i dont play an instrument as ive said before i just come on here to stalk people and cuz i have no life

[Thor]

*plays bass*

[King_Of_Terrors]

Guitar for me!

[MRDuCran]

Haha fukk, I spend too much time on these blasted forums. I used to play guitar for 6-12 hours, now it's 1-3 if I can be bothered. But I have been working 10 hours every single day for the last week or so and before that it was college x3 then work x3 so I only had 1 day free. Fukk.

[Thor]

Over the past two weeks I've been playing alot of bass with my band, but today I'm taking a day off and spending the day chilling out on MX. We played a crazy new year's party gig and I'm really tired.

[King_Of_Terrors]

What does your band play?

[PsychoticFlubber]

I never played more than 5 hours straight, which is why the hardest thing I can play is the second solo in Sixpounder. Most days it is 1 hour. Maybe I should kick it up a notch and try six hours every day.

[AA-12]

Course...

False Metal - Any power metal band, most notably Manowar, or Shadows Fall.
Power metal and SF is more metal than 85% of "metal". Fact.

[AA-12]

I go to movies based on who's in them.

The latest ones...

Aeon Flux = Charlize Theron in skintight leather. Sideboob scene. Gooood. :D
Into The Blue = Jessica Alba in bikini the whole movie. Oddly enough, we were the only 3 people in the theater the first showing of the first day it came out.
Fantastic Four = Well, my dad paid for this. Also with Jessica Alba.
The Island = Scarlet Johansson. HOOOOOTTTTTT. I gotta buy this eventually.

I think those were the 4 latest ones I've seen...

Something Wild...2 tracks for me. Touch Like Angel Of Death and Lake Bodom.
Sideboob scene? Elaborate.

[MRDuCran]

Haha I might have to download some clips for personal study...:D

[King_Of_Terrors]

What does your band play, Thor?

[Thor]

What does your band play, Thor?
Mostly generic rock and we'll play some metal songs, too.

There's my band, sorry for the bad production quality.:thumb:

Bodom are f**kin amazing my fav song is HateCrew Death Roll :D:D:D:D

Don't you be dissing the sideboob scenes either. :mad:

Oh God, Myspace...

[King_Of_Terrors]

MYSPATHE!

My friend/drummer makes fun of it (though we both have one along with our band) and always says it in a retarded voice.

[AA-12]

Oh God, Myspace...
Ah, gotcha.

No, I was just wondering what the sideboob scene was. I may go see the movie, haha.

well i cant find anything round here anywhere i have to order all my cd's and the place i order my cd's from dont have cob or really anything that im wanting atm

[RustedPieces]

I just bought Are You Dead Yet? recently. It's pretty good but I think they're older stuff is better.

[MRDuCran]

Maybe I should order you something cause I love you so much..

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

who

[MRDuCran]

You.

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

:o lol uh whatever u want to do is fine with me :) mitch baby :p lol

[blue3]

AwWwwWww.

So, anyways, you guys post a lot. Hatebreeder is a good album, too bad I don't actually own it yet.

I just bought Are You Dead Yet? recently. It's pretty good but I think they're older stuff is better.Well, obviously. I like the album though.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Wow can you say lame E-dating and spam? That's right. :p

Are You Dead Yet IS pretty good, it just took me awhile.

EDIT: Happy now?

[MRDuCran]

Do you have something against me? Seriously. Saying I'm going to buy a friend a Bodom cd is spam but talking about a fukking boobscene in a film isn't...
Nor is talking about headbangers ball or myspace, gimme a fukkin break!!

:rolleyes:

[King_Of_Terrors]

Ah, Jesus. Maybe I just wasn't using the :p thing there. I have nothing against you, your a really cool guy.

[MRDuCran]

Btw, you might want to ingonre most of the ofesive stuff I post tonight, I'm in a really bad mood. Grrr

[King_Of_Terrors]

Why are you in a bad mood ****er?

[PsychoticFlubber]

...maybe people should stop paying attention to what is being talked about so much, because everything that goes on, goes off topic. Besides, it always goes back to Bodom anyway. "Spam" doesn't matter so bad when you CANNOT spam a FORUM TOPIC by talking about things everyone would normally talk about in conversation. I am sorry if anyone or everyone hates me for the stupid stuff I say, but I can't help it. So take this comment as SPAM SPAM SPAM if you will. Besides, I don't care nor pay any attention of my post count because it makes no difference to me in my life.

[MRDuCran]

Cheese

[King_Of_Terrors]

Yeah well we always tend to go off the topic, then everyone starts bitching, then we go back to Bodom, and then someone has to bring it back up complaining :rolleyes:

[PsychoticFlubber]

Really I didn't think that :rolleyes:

[PsychoticFlubber]

Now. Back to Bodom haha!

I have found every single tab to Sixpounder, and most other songs off of HCDT to be very very incorrect. I tried to fix some, but the site won't let me. And another problem is, MXTabs.net seems to have dissapeared or something for me, and it won't let me go to it. I need to sign up on the site to correct tabs right?

[blue3]

[Aaron_Of_Oz]

i think it's bodom tabs in general, because when MXTABS was running i tried to learn a number of bodom songs and the tabs were incorrect. thats really frustrating:angry:

[King_Of_Terrors]

Guitar Pro Bodom tabs from Mysongbook.com are near perfect.

[blue3]

Yeah, a lot of tabs are crap. Powertabs was pretty good..

[King_Of_Terrors]

I learned Children Of Decance off of Mysongbook.com and I think it's 100% correct.

[MRDuCran]

Sixpounder tabs suck.

[Thor]

I learned Children Of Decance off of Mysongbook.com and I think it's 100% correct.
That's a great song to learn. That opening guitar part is oh so catchy.

[King_Of_Terrors]

The whole song is awesome. Probably my favorite Bodom tune.

[Thor]

The whole song is awesome. Probably my favorite Bodom tune.
Yeah that's a pretty sweet track, only bested by Bodom Beach Terror if you ask me. Oh yeah, We're Not Gonna Fall is close behind.

[King_Of_Terrors]

I'm not familar enough with HCDR or AYDY to compare.

[Thor]

I'm not familar enough with HCDR or AYDY to compare.
I'm one of the minorities here who likes AYDY more than HCDR.

AYDY has so many great songs, and I only really don't like one. That track would be "In Your Face", only for the far too stupid lyrics.

HCDR is basically a "half and half" album for me. Half of the album contains some of the band's best material of all time, but then the other half of the album also has the worst. I think that Hatecrew is Bodom's weakest album to date.

I agree with your view on AYDY although, I cannot go without HCDT because it is my favorite album of all time. I lost it and had to buy it again 3 days ago from deprevation problems. There is not one bad song on that album. But I am a huge loser and love almost all of Bodom's work.

[blue3]

It's HCDR.. But anyways, how does loving Bodom make you a loser?

I love almost everything Bodom has made too, but I don't think as highly of that album as most CoB fans do. Here's how they rank up for me.

1. Hatebreeder
2. Something Wild
3. Follow the Reaper
4. Are You Dead Yet?
5. Hate Crew Deathroll

[PsychoticFlubber]

It's HCDR.. But anyways, how does loving Bodom make you a loser?

Yeah, sorry that was a type-o. But loving Bodom doesn't make me a loser, what makes me a loser is the fact that I live and breathe off of the album that so many don't enjoy the way I do. I listen to that whole album all the way through all the time.

[Shadows]

I've recently fallen in love with HCDR again. I love the perfect balance between heavy AYDY style riffs and clean FtR power metal. Some of my favorite CoB songs there definitely.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Oh yeah, the only complain I have about those Guitar Pro files are that unlike tabs on a site, you cannot print these. The only way you can print is if you pay for the program... and I am cheap and can't afford it right now.

[IheartSP]

either steal it or ask someone to send it to you

[PsychoticFlubber]

My favorite Bodom song is on that album, but I still think as a whole it's the weakest thing they've made.

[King_Of_Terrors]

I think Something Wild or AYDY are their weakest albums...but SW was their first so it doesn't count :p

[Toxik]

I have heard CoB have keyboard solos. If so, what are some good songs with keyboard solos?

[Shadows]

Virtually every CoB song has a great keyboard solo. Check out anything by them.

My favorite Bodom song is on that album, but I still think as a whole it's the weakest thing they've made.
I consider all of them to be equal, unless I really dig down and look at miniscule differences. There are a few "meh" tracks, but only a few. I love almost every song on there.

[King_Of_Terrors]

I have heard CoB have keyboard solos. If so, what are some good songs with keyboard solos?

Too many to name...

War Of Razors from Tokyo Warhearts has a cool keyboard thing.

[Thor]

I have heard CoB have keyboard solos. If so, what are some good songs with keyboard solos?
My favorite keyboard solos Bodom has made are in "Follow The Reaper" and "We're Not Gonna Fall". They both have fantastic solos in them.

[Scuba_Steve]

i prefer HCDR to AYDY.

I have all their albums (either on CD or downloaded) and I would much rather listen to HCDR. I can't explain it, I just don't really like AYDY.

[Thor]

You just contradicted yourself.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Well, instead of going by what people say, you should hear it for yourself. Alot of their songs have some awsome keyboard solos. In my opinion, the one for "Chokehold (Cocked 'N' Loaded)" is amazing. But really, most of their songs have stunning solos.

[King_Of_Terrors]

You just contradicted yourself.

:lol: I was about to say that.

[Shadows]

You just contradicted yourself.
I think he meant to say "I don't really like HCDR" but made a typo.

Excellent choice. I was actually just listening to Night's Blood.

The acoustic part in that song is practically orgasmic.

[MRDuCran]

I recently joined the offical CoB boards like I said I would. I take most of it seriously but I'm an arsehole on there, just like the rest of em. It's pretty funny laughing at all the people failing at playing anything by Bodom, especially the fukkin Kissing the Shadows solo, or Silent Night, Bodom Night.

Some kid has posted the "official" Trashed, Lost and Strungout lyrics, they sound really wrong though. I doubt Alexi actually provided them.

I've been worshipping Dissection lately. I can't get enough of Storm of the Light's Bane. Night's Blood will be the first Dissection song I learn.

[LeeRoxy]

I used to be a HUGE bodom fan..beyond what was healthy. I was very dissapointed with their new album.. but that might just be me. I still like their older stuff off of Something Wild, Hatebreeder, and Follow the Reaper. Hate Crew Deathroll was pretty good as well, but I like the older stuff better.

[King_Of_Terrors]

I agree with LeeRoxy 100%

Pretty soon Alexi is going to be a hxc dancer/

[Shadows]

I doubt that. A lot of people don't like the new stuff, but I <3 it almsot as much as the old.

[IheartSP]

The thing about the new album is I don't think it should have been a surprise to anyone. You could tell the direction they were headed in HCDR. The lyrics have always been punk for the most part, especially on FTR. It was only a matter of time before they realized punk doesn't go with neoclassical, and now they found much more appropriate music to fit the lyrics.

[Squirrel]

lol 'neoclassical' lawl

[King_Of_Terrors]

Cunt, I agree with Julian. It is somewhat neoclassical.

I thought it was pretty obvious that they were going to do something like this after TL&S, but people still seemed to be surprised. I thought it was weird.

[Squirrel]

squirrel, I agree with Julian. It is somewhat neoclassical.

My point is the misuse of that term.

[Silenius]

Lets hope against hope then that Norther won't follow in the tracks of Solution7...

[IheartSP]

Squirrel Neoclassical for a while has been known as a genre of metal taking classical melodies, and namely the harmonic minor scale, and applying it in a metal way, or also using symphonic and dynamic elements coughhatebreedercough. Also in an even broader sense any sort of shred can be considered neoclassical jsut for it's use of speed and virtuosity.

[IheartSP]

Norther is a store brand Bodom. Their new album is going to be a store brand AYDY. Read the song titles and you'll know that almost instantly.

Agreed.

And watch Passage To The Reaper and tell me that isn't neoclassical.

[AA-12]

But the thing is, that's not Neo-Classical. It's just a very bastardized version of Neo-Classical. If you want some awesome Neo-Classical check out Igor Stravinsky.

[IheartSP]

In this forum, Neoclassical is an abreviation for Neoclassical Metal.

Yeah, I know the song titles, but still... At least new Kalmah is good.

What you mean to say is its a term made up by clueless people on the internet to try and glorify a stale way of playing.

Neoclassical is a term that has been used for decades, it has nothing to do with raping harmonic minor scales at 'fast' speeds.

[IheartSP]

Oh also, Necronominon I would be pleased if you changed your avatar.

[Shadows]

Their song titles have always been like that, but that's probably what will happen anyway. I've never heard Solution 7, but I like Death Unlimited, so I'm fine with whatever they do.

Their song titles have always been like that, but that's probably what will happen anyway. I've never heard Solution 7, but I like Death Unlimited, so I'm fine with whatever they do.
Solution 7 was on the border of Nu-metal.

Mainly because its not a genre. It's a style of writing and to a lesser extent, some aspects of playing.

I dont think a handful of fanboys using the term qualifies as 'enough' people.

That sounds pretty bad. Now I must here this.

It's not really the Nazi symbol, it's upside down or something...

The swastika also isnt technically always a Nazi symbol, anyway.

Well no it isn't a genre, but I use it as a genre prefix or suffix, such as melodic or brutal. I'd say Bodom's first two albums were Neoclassical Powermetal, as were most of Stratovarius', and Rhapsody, and Vision Divine.

[Squirrel]

Once again, that's not what the term 'neoclassical' means.

I'l like to see you use that kind of terminology with Aria and Eggo.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Yes, Follow The Reaper was somewhat also.

[IheartSP]

Outside of metal it means everything Aria and Eggo say it does, but once it's in a metal context it means something different, how hard is that to understand.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Yes, IheartSP is right. Seriously, you don't hear the classical influences in Bodom's early stuff?

Neo = new, and classical = well, duh. So neoclassical is "New classical", and when used in reference to a metal band, it is obviously metal with classical influences, HENCE THE NAME NEOCLASSICAL METAL.

[Squirrel]

Its not, mainly because youre wrong.

It's a false term used by clueless teenagers.

Right ?

[IheartSP]

The only people who call it false are the ones who are too stuck up about their classical music to admit that it has any relation. Saying "neoclassical" metal has 0 relation to classical music is a completely ignorant statement because it's obvious to people who know nothing about music even that it sounds like classical music.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Alright well Cunt and Julian have their different opinions, so lets break that subject...

What do guys think Follow The Reaper's best moment is?

[Silenius]

Well CoB uses classical excerpts from Mozart and such, but I don't know if neo-classical is really a valid term. I think for Warmen it may be, especially Salieri Strikes Back.

[IheartSP]

It's Return of Salieri haha wrong Star Wars movie.

And Squirrel I've never seen you come in here and say anything positive, every single time it's just to bash someone in here or bashing Bodom. If you're not gonna be reasonable then stop posting here.

[Shadows]

What do guys think Follow The Reaper's best moment is?
Any of it. :cool: I love every song on that album except the Hellion cover. My favorite song is always changing, but I love Kissing the Shadows, Follow the Reaper, and Bodom After Midnight.

It's Return of Salieri haha wrong Star Wars movie.

Actually theres three Salieri songs by Warmen :p

Salieri Strikes Back
Warcry of Salieri
Return of Salieri

[IheartSP]

I've realized that since Leah has left I've risen to the #2 poster here, with ShadowsFallen in a humungous lead. What happened to her anyway, is she ok?

Bashing is based on opinion.

This isnt, its gross misuse of a term. Objective.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Warmen is awesome, someone said they were instrumental

:lol:

[IheartSP]

Oh well I just have the latest album, I wasn't aware their were more Salieri songs.

If you want to use lowest common denominator thinking, go ahead; think that.

They are.

Yeah, I spend too much time here. :p This thread is like my eHome.

She's fine, she's just never able to get on anymore because she has a lot to do with school and a job.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Warmen isn't instrumental...

[IheartSP]

On the Warmen album I have only like half the songs are instrumental, Alexi guest sings in a cover, some chick does another song, and the Stratovarius guy does like 2 or 3.

[Shadows]

Warmen isn't instrumental...
Very little of their stuff has vocals.

[King_Of_Terrors]

The whole Accept the Fact album has vocals, right?

[Silenius]

Very little of their stuff has vocals.
The ones that have Kimberly G(r)oss suck.

The whole Accept the Fact album has vocals, right?
No, about half are instrumentals I think.

[Shadows]

The ones that have Kimberly G(r)oss suck.


No, about half are instrumentals I think.
Most definitely.

Not all of that album has vocals. I think about half.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Whatever, the whole is great. Except the one with the chick singing. Ugh...

The first 3 tracks are awesome.

[AA-12]

Oh also, Necronominon I would be pleased if you changed your avatar.
Why? It has nothing to do with Nazis :-\

[King_Of_Terrors]

NP - Warheart

I love the really low harsh vocals...awesome.

[IheartSP]

Why? It has nothing to do with Nazis :-\
Oh ok, as a Jewish person I don't like seeing swastica's.

[Shadows]

Why? It has nothing to do with Nazis :-\
It is quite controversial though.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Nobody likes seeing swasticas

Except for a few people.

NP - Towards Dead End

Great song, really symphonic, good guitar, and I like the vocals alot....

[Silenius]

It's a indian symbol when turned a certain way I think.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Indian symbol?

[Silenius]

Indian symbol?
Yeah, Native American. Some Indians in my town have one painted on their garage. It brings good luck or something like that.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Haha, on their garage door? That is interesting...

Well Downfall is almost over, just finishing up Hatebreeder, my second favorite Bodom album.

[I'm Charming]

Native American symbol or not.... I think it wouldn't hurt to change that...

Most people will automatically decide your a nazi, pretty quickly...


Isn't Kimberly Goss the singer of Sinergy? Whoever that chick is, is awful singing.

[MRDuCran]

Oh god, is Squirrel coming in here being a gay cocksucker again. :rolleyes:

[IheartSP]

Yup, that's Squirrel.

[MRDuCran]

I've seen him in here a few times, always complaining about how old and boring CoB are, and how Death "pwn" them. Opinions mutthafukker, get over it.

[IheartSP]

Or how they ripped off Kalmah and Norther, who actually came after them, or how they ripped off Sentenced who barely sound like them.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Ripped off Sentenced? :lol: What a loser...

[Shadows]

I don't understand why he comes in here. It really pisses me off, but I try not to start anything.

[IheartSP]

He comes in here solely for the purpose of being an elitist rectum. He is completely unreasonable and has never had a good reason to post here.

[MRDuCran]

He belongs on the official CoB boards where they all hate Bodom and all love Death.

[King_Of_Terrors]

I thought he used to have stars, I guess not anymore, which is really a good thing.

[MRDuCran]

They must of realised what a useless waste of space he really is.

[King_Of_Terrors]

And he was probably neg-repping all the good users to death...

What a shame.

[Shattered_Future]

I like Death...:mad:

Well, sorta. Chuck sounds like a raped squirrel at points.

[King_Of_Terrors]

....

Thanks Mike.

I like Death also :D

[Mr. Squiggles]

Everyone likes Death... Or else...

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

About the Swastika like symbol, it has been a symbol associated with Buddhism for quite some time from my understanding. And it seems it has been used in other religions/cultures for quite some time as well.

Hitler just perverted the symbol into a marking of evil.

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

And hell, the symbol has been used in many Japanese anime/mangas but they always have to change them for the Americans because they will find it "offensive" even though it has no connections to Hitler other then him pretty much stealing and using it.

Hell, even Pokemon had the symbol in the card game and such...

[Shadows]

I like a little Death, but not as much as most people. I just can't get into it.

[King_Of_Terrors]

Good job Bobo, you are correct.

[Axe]

I heard some rumour that Alexi left or something.
probably not true, but if you could back it up.

[Shadows]

Alexi didn't leave. Their old guitarist Alexander left back in 2003, that may have been what you heard.

[Axe]

Alexi didn't leave. Their old guitarist Alexander left back in 2003, that may have been what you heard.
Ah reet.
thanks.

[Are You Dead Yet]

children of bodom are great. They put on good shows too.

[King_Of_Terrors]

You probably read "Alex left after personal decisions blah blah" and thought is said "Alexi left after personal decisions blah blah".

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

They must of realised what a useless waste of space he really is.


thats mean

[King_Of_Terrors]

If you see what he posts, then you would agree.

i know i think i got in a stupid arguement with the lil creep lol but its still mean

I'm not changing it just to keep from offending mindless idiots.

About Death, they are one of my favorite bands, and I also like them more than Bodom. /gets attacked

[PsychoticFlubber]

Hey to anyone that cares. Spinefarm Records finally released a song for Norther's upcoming album. And whoever said they would start to loose their sound was right in my opinion... but check it here for your own opinions...

http://www.spinefarm.fi/av.php

[IheartSP]

So far I think this sounds pretty cool actually. It's not powermetal no but I do like it. Sounds sorta like AYDY.

[Shadows]

I'm liking this. It seems more like Hate Crew then anything else. It's sort of a cross between power metal and heavier riff-based stuff. I like what they're doing with the keyboards. I'll keep an eye our for the full album when it leaks.

[PsychoticFlubber]

Yeah, but those are one of the bands that I enjoyed the sounds of Mirror of Madness and Death Unlimited. I am sure I will like their sound still eventually like I did with AYDY...

[King_Of_Terrors]

Endless War is my favorite song by then. The whole is awesome.

[blair]

they're not that great...laiho aint that great of a guitarist...and thier music gets boring after a while...

I think that opinion can only come from what type of music you enjoy. Who do you find to be so talented as a guitarist?

[King_Of_Terrors]

Kerry King is the best black metal guitarist since Jimi Hendrix.

[Aaron_Of_Oz]

he's brave coming into a bodom thread and saying that they aren't very good and bagging their amazing guitarist

[Silenius]

Kerry King is the best black metal guitarist since Jimi Hendrix.
:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Double joke.

[Forlorn Hope]

Kerry King is the best black metal guitarist since Jimi Hendrix.
pfft...we all know that Stevie Ray Vaughn = best black metal guitarist ever...

Don't worry... I sucked at joke too...

[IheartSP]

The whole 3 chord power chord progression and one note solo thing does get old after a while, he's no Tom Delonge when it comes to writing powermetal.

Flubber he said black metal not black :p

[blair]

I think that opinion can only come from what type of music you enjoy. Who do you find to be so talented as a guitarist?

well...to answer your question for talented guitarist i have to say petrucci from dream theater and yngwie vai and tony iommi

[blair]

he's brave coming into a bodom thread and saying that they aren't very good and bagging their amazing guitarist

and im a girl

[Silenius]

petrucci from dream theater and yngwie vai and tony iommi
Petrucci is boring to watch whereas Alexi isn't.

[Shadows]

and im a girl
:eek:

We forgive you for your bluntness regarding Alexi Laiho.

[PsychoticFlubber]

well...to answer your question for talented guitarist i have to say petrucci from dream theater and yngwie vai and tony iommi

Petrucci is a good musician, but boring writer. Toni Iommi is great, but is not favorite in my books for making Ozzy leave... Yngwie is great. Via is too...

Alexi owns :)

[blair]

:( i used to think the same...haha i ill admit it i seriously used to think the same..not anymore though...

[PsychoticFlubber]

:( i used to think the same...haha i ill admit it i seriously used to think the same..not anymore though...
Not sure what made you stop thinking that but sorry to hear it. Alexi is absolutely amazing in his songwriting skills, and I am not even close to bored watching or hearing him. As for Petrucci though, I am overly board and want to count the brain cells dying of boredom in my head.

I have no arguement over Via or Yngwei Malmsteen though because I too enjoy them. Not as much as Alexi though.

[IheartSP]

Well you have to give her credit, most people who come in here and bash Alexi their favorite guitarist is Head from Korn...She did name some other good ones, besides Iommi who IMO I don't think is very good.

[AA-12]

Yeah, Yngwie and Petrucci are both awesome. Petrucci = My second favorite/tied for first favorite guitarist. Nice to see people with knowledgable opinions for once, haha. Also, with the whole Iommi thing, he was way before his time. Without him there may have not been most of the metal guitarists we have today.
