Children Of Bodom

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I would suggest Hate Crew Deathroll.

Hate Crew Deathroll is awesome, but I don't think it shows the best that Bodom can be. For me, that album would be either Follow the Reaper or Hatebreeder; those are just unbelieveably masterful. Something Wild would be a good choice too.

[flamesofbodom]

For a first impression get Trashed, Lost, And Strung-out. That way if you dont like em you didnt spend a whole lot of money :p

[Benzum]

NP - Deadnight Warrior

I know it's not their best, but it's the most accessable. Vocals aren't as harsh, keyboards aren't used as much, etc.

[ArcLite]

Just get FTR. If you don't like FTR, don't get Something Wild or Hatebreeder Either. If you still want to try 'em out, get Trashed, Lost, and Strung Out. If you like that you'll like Hate Crew Deathroll.

[Thor]

Yeah, get FTR because that seems to be the album that everyone talks about. After that I would suggest Something Wild, then Hatebreeder, then Hatecrew Deathroll. I thoroughly enjoy all of their albums, so you won't go wrong with any one you get.

[IheartSP]

Hatebreeder is my favorite, and each album really offers something different. Follow the Reaper is less agressive, but less powermetal based than Hatebreeder. HCDR is really influenced by punk, and Something Wild is a bit more atmospheric.

[AA-12]

I love the Black Metal feel of Something Wild.

[The Buttloaves]

Hatebreeder > all
It has a cool classical feel to it

[Thor]

I prefer Something Wild just because it has some of Cob's most badass songs on them. These would be Deadnight Warrior, Red Light In My Eyes 1 and 2 , and Lake Bodom. All of those are great songs.

[AA-12]

RLNME 2's intro is badass. I love how Alexi Laiho used one of Mozart's riffs.

[Thor]

Yeah, that part is what makes the song truly awesome.

I just realized how good of a song "In The Shadows" is. Anyone else really like this song?

[steve-0]

bodom is dece

children of decadence is my favorite

[steve-0]

hate crew death roll is the best album

[AA-12]

^^ Try to not double post.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I do think that Hatebreeder is the awesomest album...closely followed by Follow the Reaper. I can't believe I waited until now to buy it though. :rolleyes:

Is anyone interested in a Children of Bodom theme I created? Complete with Bodom sounds, icons, wallpapers and pictures for a picture slide screensaver. Let me know and I will upload it.

[AA-12]

I'll take it.

I got the Children of Bodom original demo, Downfall EP, and 2 bootlegs today. :cool:

[IheartSP]

It was always one of my favorites on Something Wild, it never gets a mention. Speaking of which, anyone else have any underrated Bodom songs? Mine are

Towards Dead End
Northern Comfort
Children of Bodom
Warheart
Downfall

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I'll take it.

Lucky. I don't have any of those.

I'll have it up in a little bit.

I have basically every Bodom song they've ever recorded, so yeah, you could say I have underrated ones. :p

[AA-12]

Lucky. I don't have any of those.

I'll have it up in a little bit.
I'll upload all the EP's/bootlegs sometime.

[IheartSP]

I meant do you have any underrated ones to list, I don't care if you own them.

[AA-12]

Oh, gotcha. I thought you meant do we own any.

I'd pretty much agree with you, especially TDE, it's my favorite song currently.

[IheartSP]

Towards Dead End is an awesome song but I never hear anyone talk about it. The leads are really awesome, plus the vocals in the chorus are really cool. I love the powermetal feel to it.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Underrated? I don't know. I love

Children of Bodom
Red Light In My Eyes Pt. I
Kissing the Shadows
Mask of Sanity
Lil' Bloodred Riding Hood
You're Better Off Dead

I don't know which ones you would consider underrated.

Here is the theme for anyone that wants it.
http://s40.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=34ONACAYMNY640PEPSDFR4EV1X
Read the "How To" so that you know how everything works. :thumb: Enjoy.

[IheartSP]

Children of Bodom I think is a really underrated song, I think it may even be the best example of their work. The song really has that "Bodom" sound. Lil' Bloodred Riding Hood and You're Better Off Dead are slightly underrated. I think the other ones you listed aren't. Kissing the Shadows is probably their most highly rated song, but I think it's fair because I think it is their best, but unlike Children of Bodom it doesn't sound much like their other stuff, so I wouldn't tell someone to listen to that to see what they really sound like.

[IheartSP]

I'd love to put the theme on my computer but other people use it and they'd get mad.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I'd love to put the theme on my computer but other people use it and they'd get mad.

Do it anyway with a "hastia vitu!" to them! :p JK. It's actually pretty cool. Took me forever to do though.

I do think that Children of Bodom is an underrated song. I'd never heard of it before I bought Hatebreeder. The songs off of Hate Crew Deathroll I'd never heard of either, and they are my favorite songs off the album. I love the melodies in them; especially Lil' Bloodred Riding Hood.

[IheartSP]

Maybe on my other computer I will put it on.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Maybe on my other computer I will put it on.

Sweet. I love the sound I put for the empty trash can. Everytime the trash can empties Alexi says "shut the **** up, retard!" in Suomi and Janne laughs in the background. :lol: It's awesome. It's from Trashed in Helsinki.

[IheartSP]

I hate having sounds for things that don't normally have sounds. I always delete things like minimize and maximize and exit sounds, they annoy the hell out of me.

I know, same here. I don't have any sounds for those. Just the important ones. I made the sounds for Device Connect and Unconnect because I'm always putting my mp3 player into my comp to play it.

[IheartSP]

I hope Bodom goes on tour here in the U.S. after their album comes out. I'd kill to see them.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I know...I've been looking for tour dates, but I can't find any in the US. My friend (something Haluta....posted a while ago on this thread) says she found some, I have to get them from her. I wish I could go. :upset: I'm going to try to convince my parents, I think.

[IheartSP]

My parents wouldn't care, they are letting me go to Ozzfest. They are usually pretty cool about those things.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

My parents wouldn't care, they are letting me go to Ozzfest. They are usually pretty cool about those things.

That's awesome. Well, if you go and I don't you definately have to come back with tons of details. \m/ I think powerchord is going to try to get his parents to let him go to ozzfest, but I asked him if he wanted to come to Bodom with me if they come here.

[Shadows]

I've heard in several places that CoB will tour the US after the album is released, but it's probably just a rumor. I'll keep hoping anyway because I cannot die until I see my other favorite band live.

[Shadows]

My favorite Bodom song? That's tough...I love Kissing the Shadows, which is probably my favorite. but I also love Deadnight Warrior, Bed of Razors, Bodom After Midnight...the list just keeps ****ing going.

[Shadows]

I could listen to that song for hours on end. Listening to the Tokyo Warhearts version just makes me day dream about how amazing it would be to hear it live.

I know! Same here! :) I love listening to Toyko Warhearts, it makes me feel like I'm there. They are just so good you can almost see them.

[Shadows]

Everytime Alexi screams, "Are you ready for some more ****ing heavy metal??!!" I just want to scream along with the crowd. I can't believe I missed hearing this in person last year. :upset:

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Definately! It makes you want to join in! What do you mean you missed it? You could've gone to see them?

[Shadows]

When they were touring with Lamb of God and Fear Factory. I live in Toledo, so Detroit is only an hour away. It would've been a long shot, but I'm sure I could've gone if I bitched at enough people to go with me. Now I'm wishing I had.

[IheartSP]

They came here in October with Lamb of God but I wasn't into Bodom then.

That would've been awesome. I know they aren't anything near Children of Bodom, but Lamb of God and Fear Factory are pretty cool bands too. I've heard that Lamb of God is awesome live. That would've killed me though; not going and knowing that it was happening not too far away.

[Shadows]

It did kill me. While the show was going on, I was stuck in this small club watching the worst local bands in existence. Even though I'm not a LoG fan, I've also heard thier shows are crazy. But I would've stayed only for Bodom.

Yep. Me too. I really hope I can go if they come to the US. I'll beg if I have to.

As will I. I would pay any price and sit through the worst bands. But right now, I have more importent matters to tend to.

After reading your profile, you seem like a die hard Bodom fan. Nice to see another dedicated Hatecrew member.

Yep, I'm diehard CoB (and Shadows Fall, but they don't fit the thread). The advent of the new album has got me excited as hell.

Dude...I have some questions about that Bodom theme. First off, it's great, some sweet pictrues and sounds. But the question is: is it possible to edit it in any way?

I did make it, yeah. There is a program that I have (that is actually probably illegal...I never thought about it) call All Sound Recorder XP. I stuck some random Bodom cds in my computer, hit record, and recorded the little bits that I wanted to use for the sounds. You can do the same if you have the program. You can change the wallpapers, icons, whatever. That's why I put all those wallpapers on there, so that you could customize it.

I'm going to get the single and album as soon as they come out. I'm quickly becoming a die hard Bodom fan.

Sweet. I've converted all of you. :thumb: So am I, providing I can find it somewhere. That's the only time I can take money out of my guitar savings; new Bodom album!!

I would join if you made a forum just about metal, Bodom doesn't have enough stuff to make an entire forum out of it.

A lot of bands have forums though. I have a forum, it's not 100% dedicated to metal though.

and so the fanboyism continues

[AA-12]

If you don't like us discussing CoB then why enter a thread that is solely based on the band?

[Shattered_Future]

Meh...his loss. :p

Anyway...i finally listened to almost all of Hatebreeder last night. Still not as good as FTR...but freaking amazing. I love Warheart and Black Widow...great great songs.

[IheartSP]

I think Hatebreeder is better than FTR because it has some more classical influence. Although, they are both amazing albums. If your into other powermetal stuff Towards Dead End is a really good song, and Bed of Razors is a slower one.

[Electric Ocean]

I don't really come into R&M much, but I was just wondering if someone in here could give me a genre for Bodom?

[IheartSP]

Power/Speed with Harsh Vocals

Power/Speed with Harsh Vocals

Thats what I thought but I've been arguing with some douche at another forum who who swore they were Black/Death for about an hour now.

[IheartSP]

They aren't even close to either Black or Death...

[Electric Ocean]

Yeah, I said they were Power with Blackish vocals but he woudn't have it even after I gave him definitions and examples of Black and Death. It's times like these I'm Glad everyone at MX is so cool/knowledgeable.

[IheartSP]

Yeah the vocals aren't even really black or death, they are just harsh. The music being melodic death or symphonic black is also a ridiculous notion if you ask me.

[Electric Ocean]

Yeah the vocals aren't even really black or death, they are just harsh. The music being melodic death or symphonic black is also a ridiculous notion if you ask me.

Yeah I know the vocals aren't harsh enough to be Black but if you had to pin a genre on them I'd say Black would fit best.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Does anyone ever get tired of trying to put labels on bands? I don't know, but I find that it can get a little annoying. I've been told that Children of Bodom are black metal, death metal and melodic metal. Personally, I don't care. You like what you like. Labeling things just makes music more complicated sometimes. IMO.

[AA-12]

You know I would.


Here's a link to it: http://musicianalliance.net/phpbb2

Join up and try to get other Bodom fans onboard.

[IheartSP]

Without labels though, a Bodom fan could say oh if you like Bodom then you'd love Cradle of Filth, when in fact they aren't the same thing at all and I hate Cradle of Filth. With labels though, bands like Bodom and Norther are labeled as the same thing, and are in fact very similar.

Yeah I guess it does sometimes but it also makes it easier to find other bands you like and besides that guy started the argument with me when I implyed that Bodom were basically a Power band. Anyway, thats for the help about the whole genre thing guys :thumb:.

Not Melodic Death for sure...

I like the idea of just calling it "Metal".

[Shadows]

I don't really care about labeling genres on bands, but I'm usually a Nazi for getting it right. Bodom is power metal, but Something Wild I think has black metal aspects.

So is there going to be some kind of Hate Crew forum or thread or something started? If there is let me know ASAP.

From now on we all have to type in Civitype font. We could be some sort of CoB cult.






















Alright, so it was a stupid idea...

[Thor]

Well, we could. Do you want to do it?

We could do it, we'd just have to figure out a way to get Civitype onto the forums. Maybe petition the mods to add it to the font list in advanced posting. It may look odd, but I would like it because it would be a symbol of those who love Children of Bodom. Almost like a sign of a Hate Crew member.

Well in the mean time we could pick a font that's already on there.

[justlikealex]

Hey, I was wondering if any of you hardcore COB fans could recomend me like the top 5 COB songs from a guitarists perspective.

COB songs I've heard:
sixpounder-favorite solo (2nd one)
needled 24/7-i like the guitar work in this one
bodom beach terror-nothing special, but a catchy as hell chorus
lake bodom-cool intro
touch like an angel of death live-best intro I've ever heard in my life
hate me-good guitar breaks and solos, prob my 3rd fav bodom song next to needled and sixpounder

[AA-12]

In no order:

Red Light In My Eyes Part I
Red Light In My Eyes Part II
Silent Night, Bodom Night
Towards Dead End
Bed of Razors

[justlikealex]

In no order:

Red Light In My Eyes Part I
Red Light In My Eyes Part II
Silent Night, Bodom Night
Towards Dead End
Bed of Razors
thanks man

[IheartSP]

Looks like you don't have any stuff off of Hatebreeder. Look at Warheart, Silent Night, Bodom Night (that last 1 was just 1 song btw), Towards Dead End, and Bed of Razors. Also check out some more Follow the Reaper stuff like Children of Decadence, Kissing the Shadows (best song ever!) and Taste of my Scythe.

[justlikealex]

btw, could you tell me what album those are off of cause most of the stuff i heard is from HCDR

[IheartSP]

The 2 red light in my eyes are on something wild, and the rest he listed were on hatebreeder

[justlikealex]

most COB fans seem to be very fond of hatebreeder as opposed to HCDR, I just finished reading an interview and Alexi says that people consider HCDR sellout nu-metal.
Thoughts on this....

[IheartSP]

Fact: HCDR was a style change
Fiction: HCDR is a sellout nu-metal album

It was nowhere close to nu-metal, it had a lot of metalcore influence though. Alexi said he wanted to focus more on rythym, which had taken a backseat on the last 3 albums. He certainly did a good job having more rythym, and the vocals and lyrics have a much bigger punk influence. Plus the music got a little heavier and a lot less melodic. Nonetheless, it is still CoB and it is a great album, but it pales in comparison to the 2 previous ones.

[AA-12]

HCD isn't nu metal at all. It's not a sell out album either.

IHeartSP: Metalcore influence? I can't see any metalcore influence at all on it.

[justlikealex]

Some of the older songs I looked into actually sounded "happy" so I didn't care for it too much, but that's probably because I was introduced to them through songs like Sixpounder which is pretty heavy.

[AA-12]

Well, it's power metal influenced. Most power metal has a happy like vibe.

[IheartSP]

Yeah their older stuff is very upbeat. It definately has a metalcore influence, listen to the vocals, they have a punk influence, as do the lyrics. Also the riffs tend to be a little more metalcore if you listen to stuff like Shadows Fall or Lamb of God. I can definately hear some of that in there.

Alexi said almost all of the lyrics are improved at the studio and don't mean **** lol but yeah he listens to Lamb of God so I guess he puts that back into his songwriting

[AA-12]

Shadows Fall and Lamb of God arent really metalcore at all. :-\

[IheartSP]

They are thrash influenced metalcore, but definately their definative genre is metalcore.

[AA-12]

Meh, I don't see much metalcore sound to them at all. I just considor them newer metal.

[Forlorn Hope]

From now on we all have to type in Civitype font. We could be some sort of CoB cult.
where can i download that font...?

[Forlorn Hope]

Some of the older songs I looked into actually sounded "happy" so I didn't care for it too much, but that's probably because I was introduced to them through songs like Sixpounder which is pretty heavy.
that "happy" sound also comes from some of the classical influenced guitar riffs/solos

[IheartSP]

Well whatever you want to call LoG and Shadows Fall, Bodom has some of that in HCDR.

[comm]

hey im a diehard CoB fan and i was wondering if there are any live CDs out there (unofficial of course) of CoB. Tokyo Warhearts was great, but i need more

[AA-12]

Tons of them.

I cant find any and Ive been looking for a month or two on Newsbin but cant find any. If anyone could upload some songs it would be greatly appreciated. :thumb:

Ok, I got to ask you a question. Is soulseek safe cause I already ****ed up one computer this year from downloading stuff. Sorry Im super paranoid

[AA-12]

It's the safest out there.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Shadows Fall and Lamb of God arent really metalcore at all. :-\

I don't think so either. Alexi does really like Killswitch Engage, though. Which is cool. It shows that he's varied.

where can i download that font...?

Shadows Fall - not metalcore. They're another band i just call "metal"

Lamb Of God has a lot of metalcore influences though...

Killswitch Engage - best metalcore band i can come up with. They showcase the genre's highlights perfectly.

[ArcLite]

Got my drums, bass, and keys finished for my Taste Of My Scythe comp cover. Took a hell of a long time, but now is the fun part...out comes the axe.

I actually didn't like Shadows Fall the first time I heard them. I heard them about the same time I heard In Flames, and I headed in the In Flames direction. I like them now though; got a couple songs off the YSI on my mp3 player. Lamb of God is ok.

Killswitch Engage rocks. :thumb:

Shadows Fall - Kickass
Killswitch Engage - Kickass
Lamb Of God - Kickass for 2 songs, then throw cd player at wall because of sheer sameness of their songs.

I want to do a cover song for the comp...just have no way to do it, unless i buy a recorder for my ipod, and record straight onto that. Might have my band cover Nemo by Nightwish...that would be great.

[The Buttloaves]

Nemo is awesome. Tarja = beautiful and so is her voice. Isn't she classically trained or something?

Yes, I've heard she has classical training as well...

And to Taste_My_Scythe, my girlfriend can't sing for ****, a fact that even she admits. :lol:

I haven't had our new singer over for band practice yet, but from what i've heard, she can sing really well. And I've always had a thing for chick singers... :naughty:

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Whoops. :lol: My bad. Maybe I'm thinking of someone else. Maybe I'm just wrong entirely. It wouldn't be the first time.

[justlikealex]

Could somebody here please compare and contrast COB with Sinergy?

[AA-12]

They are quite different really. Sinergy is a bit softer and has a female singer.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Yeah. The guitar stuff is pretty awesome in Sinergy...mainly because the guitarists are Alexi and Roope Latvala. They have some pretty cool melodies. The first Sinergy song I ever heard was Beware the Heavens. I actually like I Spit On Your Grave better, though.

[Shattered_Future]

They are quite different really. Sinergy is a bit softer and has a female singer.

:amaze:

Ok, im gonna need some of this now...Alexi AND a female singer?

That sounds like the coolest band ever...

[Taste_My_Scythe]

:amaze:

Ok, im gonna need some of this now...Alexi AND a female singer?

That sounds like the coolest band ever...

She doesn't have the best voice though; IMO. I'll see if I can get an upload of I Spit On Your Grave, complete with spitting intro by Alexi. :thumb:

[AA-12]

I'm not really a fan of them. I'm not one for female singers for some reason. :-\

[IheartSP]

I think that Kim Goss is a pretty bad singer.

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

Since Alexi has been getting so popular as of late i wouldnt doubt he drops her fat *** and snags himself a trashy little 17 year old blonde :)...hell i would!

[metal_head_dude1337]

I didnt see a Children of Bodom thread so i decided to make one myself. If you want to talk about this amazing band then this is the place to do it. Lets get the ball rolling.

What is your favorite Bodom song?


COB is amazing..SIXPOUNDER, FOLLOW THE REAPER, EVERYTIME I DIE, ANGELS DON't KILL, KISSING THE SHADOWS!!!!

[IheartSP]

I don't get how someone can like Slipknot and CoB, it's like eating at McDonald's after you just had some fancy steak.

I actually did that earlier.

[IheartSP]

And while eating McDonalds i bet you said i wish i was eating some of that fancy steak.

[AA-12]

Well, I love McDonalds. It's just as good to me, haha.

[IheartSP]

Well I think of it as pretty low quality food especially compared to a real nice fat juicy burger, oh man am I hungry...

[AA-12]

It is low quality, but oh well, haha. My local steak house makes the best juicy burgers ever. You'd love them.

[IheartSP]

Yes I love my juicy burgers, but one time...

I was at Ruby Tuesday and I ordered a BBQ burger. I got it and took a bite, and they put BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, and mustard on. It's not even that I don't like mustard and mayonnaise, but why would anyone mix these 3 sauces on 1 burger?

[justlikealex]

Who is the current guitarist besides Alexi?

[IheartSP]

Roope Latvala

[justlikealex]

^googles

[justlikealex]

looks like Roope Latvala is (currently?) in Sinergy too then

[AA-12]

Latvala is so underrated.

[justlikealex]

Latvala is so underrated.
is he the one in the passage to the reaper video or is that alexander?
because whoever it was IMO is better then alexi

[IheartSP]

it was Roope

He was Alexi's idol growing up.

[justlikealex]

interesting, roope must be in his late 30's by now probably

[Scoot]

For the Kissing the Shadows solo, is it just Alexi soloing or is Roope soling as well, because at certain points it sounds like one guitar stops soloing and begins playing the riff, while the other does the opposite. The two sections of the solo have different tones, too.

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

it was Roope

He was Alexi's idol growing up.

Indeed, Roppe is 10 years older than Alexi and was in a band called "Stone" in the 1980's that Alexi loved while growing up. Its amazing how well they work together, i got to meet Roope...ill try n find the photo actually n post it on here, and no his English wasnt that great lol.

[AA-12]

is he the one in the passage to the reaper video or is that alexander?

Yeah, that's Roope. Technical wise, he is actually much better than Laiho. I still prefer Laiho's style and songwriting though.

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

^^^

I would like to see Roope get to try out some leads on the new album, i love what he's done in Sinergy with Alexi. I agree about Alexi's style, in heavy metal it is hard to distinguish your own voice in your playing and Alexi has really crafted his sound and style to where you can hear it on a second, he's really the future of metal guitar playing.

[blue3]

How'd you meet him?

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

A few reasons...it was my third time seeing them for supporting Hatecrew Deathroll, and we got up front and had a giant Finnish flag! Alexi dedicated "sixpounder" to us and after the show i threw it up to Alexi and he high fived us. My friends and i didnt care about fear factory and lamb of god so we left and hung out by COB's tour bus, Alexi waved and was drinking and Roope came out and talked to us for awhil. He said "thanks for the flag guys" and pointed toward the bus and it was hanging in the bus! Which was preety metal, we had stapled on a cloth that said "Missouri Hatecrew" with our names on it and we talked to Roope about Finland, concerts he saw in the 80's, etc...he was extremley nice and happy to chat so we were thankful and got a photo with him.

[Shattered_Future]

For the Kissing the Shadows solo, is it just Alexi soloing or is Roope soling as well, because at certain points it sounds like one guitar stops soloing and begins playing the riff, while the other does the opposite. The two sections of the solo have different tones, too.

Kissing The Shadows was when they still had Alexander as rhythm guitarist...

And no, i think Alexi did all the leads.

[Squirrel]

Kissing the Shadows is just a duel between Alexi and the keyboard player.

At a couple of parts theres harmonising, but thats just over dub.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

:lol:

What if Alexi collaborated with Tarja from Nightwish though? THAT would be a group to put money down for.

I would pay big money for that. On the scythes of bodom board, someone said that there was a rumor going around about a collaboration; Children of Bodom with Amy Lee? Everyone was so pissed off about it.

I think Kim Goss different than Amy Lee though. Amy Lee is more...mainstream...I guess. She's awesome, but judging from the kind of music she plays, I can't see her doing something with Children of Bodom. Kim Goss...on the other hand....used to play keyboards for Dimmu Borgir.
I don't know, maybe I just can't picture it. Who knows how it would work?

OK YSI sucks now. Sorry

it's a damn good album, my favourite song is Hate Me!

Yeah i like that song but my favorites(cant decide) are either Bodom After Midnight or Kissing The Shadows

[GaggingOrder]

I downloaded Kissing THe Shadows but haven't hear it yet. THe best song I've heard is Bodom After Midnight.

I was downloading an entire Meshuggah album, but there's on ****ing song I can't get anywhere.

[flamesofbodom]

Is it "I"?

[GaggingOrder]

Nah, Inside What's WIthin Beneath.

NP - Bodom After Midnight

[flamesofbodom]

try to request it in the YSI thread. You should find someone who has it

I'm listining to bed of razors, now I like it the vocals are what do it for me his solos are amazing.

[flamesofbodom]

That song is amazing. So much.....i dunno.
TMS your favorite song awaits a review

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

I gotta learn more COB leads, only one i really know is the outro of "Black Widow" which isnt fun lol, still have problems with a few parts but its good enough for now

[flamesofbodom]

Learn Follow The Reaper. Very fun and very fast

[Taste_My_Scythe]

Bed of Razors: *ahem* Ok. Best Bodom song ever. The melody is amazing and will have you humming it in no time. The guitars are perfect and clearly show the Bodom trademark style. Janne's keyboard intro and everything else he does just emphasizes an already amazing track. And I don't know about you, but personally I love the lyrics. I think that its the best lyrics that Alexi has written yet.

Speaking of, how is the cover coming Danny? You should enter it in the metal comp or something

[IheartSP]

I don't like the Bed of Razors lyrics they sound like goth or something. It is good besides the solo which is really boring. Kissing the Shadows = Best Bodom Song.

BED OF RAZORS:

I see the candle light burning in your eyes
Flaring up my eyes in flames
On this pitch black summer night
of passion and pain

chorus:
The razor caressed my flesh and my arms turned read
I feel a vast desire
Years of pain are flowing down my arms
sweet, red, warm stream you drink, to make me released
Give me your arm, let me make you feel the ease
in the Bed of Razors we bleed together

I feel the fire burning in my heart
I see it sparkling in your eyes
The blaze you're feeling more and more

chorus:
The razor caressed your flesh and your arms turned red
I feel your vast desire
Tearing pain is flowing down your arms
sweet, red, warm stream I drink, to make you released
Holding your arms, cherish this composure
in the Bed of Razors we sleep together forever...


........Ok, so maybe I am morbid. :lol:

I don't know. Mainly I think some Bodom lyrics can be a little lame, but I really liked these. They have some other good ones too. I love the first verse to You're Better Off Dead;

"Hey, whats the matter with you?
what are you trying to do?
I'm wrecking my brain; I'll never get it!
Did I ever hurt you in any way?
If I did then hear my apology: **** you!"

and the chorus is good too:

"...you're better off dead then ****ing with me!"

I just never really thought Bodom's lyrics were their strong point...i always thought it was their weakest.

I think so too. Alexi never puts the lyrics to all of their songs in the cd booklets because he doesn't like them. He doesn't think of himself as much of a lyricist.
