how good is living dead beat :cool:

if its delayed to oct25th in usa, is it the same for canada? better not be... :(

All the songs are amazing. :cool:

I would assume that the delay is for all of North America, but everything I've read has just said US, so maybe Canada will get it sooner.

I listened to the 5 or 6 songs I had today cause everyone says its so great but I still can't really get into it. Half of it sounds completely new, the other half sounds like HCDR. Theres really no shreds left of pre-HCDR Bodom in there. I like a lot of the soloing, and some of the riffs aren't too bad. It's not really that I think it's a bad album, I think they could a gajillion times better and there are other bands who put out much better albums than this so it kind of doesn't go very far for me. For Bodom an OK album just isn't gonna cut it. I thought HCDR was as low as they should go for an album, anywhere past that and it really just isn't amazing enough to get much positive response from me.

I thought HCDR was great too. :( There it was obvious they were going this way, but there was still a lot of power metal left on it.

[QUOTE=Thor]I thought that the best was Living Dead Beat, but Bastards was enjoyable.[/QUOTE]

FINALLY, somebody else who agrees with me.

I now think that this is the best Bodom album by far.

I thought HCDR was good but it was like a 6 or 7 compared to the 9 or 9.5 HB and FTR were. It was a good quality album with some power metal influence. This album took none of that though, they are left with barely any, and basically took the whole new americanish riffing style and chopped out about 75% of the leads.

There's nothing American about AYDY really. The keyboards and lead style sound nothing like any American band I've ever heard.

The riffs sound extremely American to me. Also the keyboard does sometimes when it is industrial, like in In Your Face.

Just wondering, but how can a riff sound American?

Each country has their own musical movements. The new american movement is huge now, and there has been a scandinavian one in recent years which Bodom was in. They all have similarities and Bodom went from sounding like a "scandinavian" band to an "american" band.

Yeah, Are You Dead Yet? does kind of sound like it could have come from a New Wave of American Heavy Metal band.

Well I'll be dam[COLOR=White]n[/COLOR]ed....





It wasn't really a gradual thing lol but I all of a sudden decided I like the new album...It is still worse than HCDR I think so it's not amazing like some of you say, but I am kinda getting hooked on it. I still stand by most of the things I've said over the past few months, it has metalcore influence and it's nowhere near the other albums, but I am starting to take a liking to it.

HCDR is actually my fav album next to FTR.

It's better than HCDR in my opinion, but not by much. It's pretty weak when being compared to their first three releases.

I think some tracks are much better than others. In Your Face is the worst I think and I haven't heard 2 yet still but Punch Me I Bleed or Living Dead Beat are my favorites.

Yeah, Living Dead Beat is becoming one of my favorite Bodom tracks right now. I don't really like the long keyboard intro, so I just skip it whenever I listen to that song.

could someone send me that song?

[QUOTE=Laihoistheman]could someone send me that song?[/QUOTE]
Sure, do you have AIM?

Oh I noticed today when listening to HCDR, theres an extremely metalcorish scream in Triple Corpse Hammer Blow when he says don't push me. I never really noticed before.

One of the reasons why I don't like that song. The rest of the song is pretty generic, if you ask me. The songs that are really worth listening to on HCDR are Chokehold, Bodom Beach Terror, and Little Bloodred Riding Hood.

I think the thing about TCHB tho is that its the only real neoclassicalish song on the album.

i also think the guitar work on HCDR are pretty good as there old stuff i dont think anything beats kissing the shadows in terms of hardness but sixpounder is an AWSOME song and the solo is actually pretty hard with the sweeps.

Everyone check out the Children of Bodom article on [url]www.uncyclopedia.org[/url]

I used to like Sixpounder, but after hearing it millions of times it just became old.

can anyone find guitar tabs for the Britney Spears cover Cob did...i think the solo sounds cool but i've been looking for those tabs for a couple of weeks now and still havnt found it. if anyone lknows of any please tell.

I really doubt there are any tabs for that yet. There probably won't be for a very long time, so I would just say keep looking...

Hmm. I prefer the new record over HCDR, dunno. It was about time that the ditched the overly-used classical guitar influences and put a bit more metal in it, hehe.

God, you guys do bitch alot don't you, f[size=2]u[/size]ck.

I hate the fact that there is so much bickering over what Children of Bodom's style is now. Sure, some of you think they should've stuck to their PM roots, but hey. They feel like changing their style, and if you are a true Bodom fan...you'll respect that and not argue about which album is the best. They are all good in the sense that they are different. Personally, I don't understand why Hatecrew Death Roll is considered a bad or sellout album; it's catchy as f[size=2]u[/size]ck and the riffs are great. Are You Dead Yet? is the same. Each album is greatness in it's own right and it's own style. The band decided that they wanted to change their direction a bit with Hatecrew Deathroll and Are You Dead Yet?. You can't say that each album is the same. Hatebreeder is different from Something Wild, and Follow the Reaper is different from Hatebreeder. You can't expect a band NOT to change. Whether you agree with the change (or new direction) or not, you've still got your Something Wild and your Hatebreeder to wear out.

Agreed. Completely.

[QUOTE=Thor]I thought that the best was Living Dead Beat, but Bastards was enjoyable.[/QUOTE]

I agree with that. I love the vocals...hell...I love everything in Living Dead Beat, but I like the lyrics to Bastards of Bodom; "don't need a reason, and I won't tell you why. Just say 'go to hell! by the edge of my scyyyyythe!'" :thumb:

[QUOTE=MRDuCran]Anyone seen the Hate Me video..... LEGO VERSION??

I just downloaded it and it's alright. Obviously just lego versions of CoB playing. It sounds like Alexi singing and it's different to the record so he must if re-recorded it and it has a different guitar solo.
So yeah, anyone else seen it??[/QUOTE]

:lol: Lego as in....[I]Lego[/I]? I haven't seen it! Can you upload it please?

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I think that Deathcult guy was banned for starting that spam thread. :lol:

I can't find the lyrics for Trashed anywhere!! I've been looking for ages.
[QUOTE=Metallion#666]Cryptopsy just gave up on lyrics altogether[/QUOTE]

You know, I've heard a lot about them....but I haven't actually heard them. What are they like?

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]I was looking for COB lyrics...they're really hard to find.

Plus, when I thought I found them, they were really weird... :confused:[/QUOTE]


:lol: Don't f[SIZE=2]u[/SIZE]cking believe anything you read on the internet....no one can understand what Alexi says.
