How good are Children of Bodom?
 

I've heard their guitarist is one of the best speed metal guitarists in the world, they *apparently* invented speed metal (I think Metallica did but anyway)

In an experienced musician opinion, how good would you say they are?

Actually, speed metal was invented long before Metallica or COB.

They are good. Nothing spectacular, but definately worth checking them out. They are speed metal, you probably said that because you meant "one of the fastest guitar players in the world"

Which, yes, he would be, behind hundreds of others.

They are extremely good. They haven't invented anything new. But the do metal
just as good as anyone else alive. a

I've only been playing guitar for a year now. But in my opinion Alexi is in the top 20 shredders in the world maybe even better. The band as a whole is really talanted but they do lack good lyrics...

The lyrics are hardcore. It sucks.

Speed Metal = Variation of Thrash Metal generally containing more melodic passages and more melodic vocals.

Bodom is part Speed Metal, but I wouldn't call Alexi a "speed metal guitarist" becuase they are predominately Power Metal, at least in their earlier works. Plus Speed Metal was pretty much invented by Judas Priest in like 1978 or even earlier maybe, Bodom's first release was in 1997.

I thought it was 1995?

Bodom is NOT speed metal. Period.

Musically, their riffing is pretty substandard, aside from the keyboard parts, but the little leads and solos are quite excellent.

My Something Wild says 95, I guess that's the price for pirating music :lol:

thanks, I'll upload it for you

thank you lots :-)

Triple Corpse Hammerblow is a good song.

I think it's one of the best on the album.

Yeah, Chokehold's better though.

Yeah I do agree, I think Chokehold is the best song on there, except maybe Bodom Beach Terror, one of my favorite solos of all time.

[QUOTE=blue3]Yeah, Chokehold's better though.[/QUOTE]
no way!!!!

[QUOTE=dest. Chaos]no way!!!![/QUOTE]yes way!!!!

Nah dudes. Needled 24/7 is amazing. Sixpounder, great riffs and solo (2nd), Chokehold has amazingly fun riffs to play and a very interesting solo, Bodom Beach Terror is all around sick with a great melodic chorus. Angels Don't Kill is probably my favorite, because of the Keyboards being so well in tact with guitar and the lyrics "Could you ever kill the pain in my heart, even though they say angels don't kill" send shivers through me every time. Triple Corpse Hammerblow has a cool intro and great song structure. You're Better off Dead is alot like Bodom Beach Terror, great chorus. Lil' Bloodred Ridin' Hood shows Alexi's punk side in my opinion. Hate Crew Deathroll is just another fun song to hear like Hate Me! So as you can possibly tell, I love the entire album.

Thank you for HCDR in paragraph form.

[QUOTE=blue3]yes way!!!![/QUOTE]
:lol:

I love playing the lead "riff" in Triple Corpse Hammerblow.


Wait...


I love playing all Bodom songs...

Eh

what songs do you play already?

do u guys like AYDY? at all cuz i really like it but lots of people think it sucks

We've debated this for a long time. I think it's OK, nothing compared to the old stuff, but not terrible.

[QUOTE=repcak]what songs do you play already?[/QUOTE]

I can play at least 80% of them :lol:

I don't learn every riff from every song though cause I'll go off them pretty quick otherwise, plus, some of Alexi's solos are a bit out my range at the moment.

My favs to play are:
Bodom After Midnight
Hate Me
Warheart
Hatebreeder
Towards Dead End
Black Widow
Downfall
Sixpounder
Chookehold
Bodom Beach Terror
Triple Corpse Hammerblow
Hate Crew Deathroll
Living Dead Beat
In Your Face
Trashed, Lost and Strungout.

wow, that's alot eh.

ya its not what u would expect from COB but it is still a good CD

Nice list there Mitch. I can play Hate Me and Children of Decadence. All I ever bothered to learn, really.

I know a decent amount of riffs, the only complete song I know is Bed of Razors. I knwo all of Warheart but the solo, a fair amount of Black Widow, amongst other things. The only solo I know really well by them besdies Bed of Razors is Silent Night, Bodom Night.

yeah thats a lot... :)

AYDY is good... not excellent (though a few songs are fantastic -> if you want peace .... prepare for war - the riff is amazing)

AYDY is a different style from many other albums that Alexi produced where he uses a harder, less complicated style of playing.

The vocals aren't very good, either. I think he ran out of ideas after Follow the Reaper.

Exactly. His voice sounds horrible now, and I laugh when he tries to do older stuff with his new voice...

Have to seen them on this tour Jay?

Same here but I plan on learning more now that I have perfected the bed of razors solo. Well I say that but I really can't perfect it...my LP copy only has 21
frets and Alexi has like 24 so I moved that little bit down

[QUOTE=King_Of_Terrors]Exactly. His voice sounds horrible now, and I laugh when he tries to do older stuff with his new voice...[/QUOTE]

Eh, I like his voice now. Seems he's developed his own style in a way. Don't get me wrong. The way he sounded on the older albums was badass. But he's coming into his own, I guess. When you hear his voice now, you automatically think "That's Alexi".
