[QUOTE=Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood] that person needs serious help.[/QUOTE]

It's solace in my heart, knowing that person's best friend is cold steel in his mouth. Yeah. :thumb:

I really like it.

so your the person who doesnt know anything lol

\shakes Ben violently

Seriously, what's wrong with the video?

Well, for one, they didn't even show Alexi playing the cool parts of the solo. God I hate it when bands don't show the solos in their videos!
The words flashed around the bottom were kinda cheesy too. Hmmm, what else...:p

I meant, why do people get the idea that the band sold out with it?

The band kinda sold out with AYDY, if you ask me. They can redeem themselves if they go back to their Something Wild/Hatebreeder Golden Age, though. I'm hoping for a good new release that doesn't further their progression as an Americanized band.

It was just to appease american kidiots who "omg i lyk listen to bodom how hard core am iz".... Yeah.

What is it about the video that makes you think that?

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I meant, why do people get the idea that the band sold out with it?[/QUOTE]
Oh...I wouldn't say they sold out on it. I just think they couldh've done better. Either way, Are You Dead Yet video > no video at all

[QUOTE=Forlorn Hope]Are You Dead Yet video > no video at all[/QUOTE]

Quality > Quantity

They could've done without it.

[QUOTE=Forlorn Hope]Oh...I wouldn't say they sold out on it. I just think they couldh've done better. Either way, Are You Dead Yet video > no video at all[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I have to agree with you there... the video wasn't great... but it is better than nothin...

[QUOTE=FuryInArt]Quality > Quantity

Quoted for utter truth within. :thumb:

Ben: The theme of the video. It's very oriented towards 12-15 year olds IMO.

The chicks and cops stuff. Just very immature.

EDIT: It also had nothing to do with the songs lyrics.

Videos almost never have anything to do with a song's lyrics. I also don't see how the cops/chicks are geared for 12-15 year olds. Sixpounder had almost the exact same theme and Every Time I Die had a guy in a cheesy a[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE]s grim reaper costume running through the woods, but [I]this[/I] video is immature?

Yes it is.

Everytime I die's video was okay.

Needled 24/7 has the best video, seconded by TL&S.

That really makes no sense.

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]That really makes no sense.[/QUOTE]

No. Your pathetic argument in favor of this new video does.

Explain why it's good?

I'm still waiting for a real reason as to why it's bad.

The cut shots to Alexi screaming and playing guitar were great, with the distorted effect and shifting angles. The lit banner behind the band made the stage look very epic while they were playing. The theme stuff (cops/chicks) only took up half of the video, but I'm neutral on that. It wasn't really relevant to anything but it wasn't bad. It's almost identical to Sixpounder when the woman was beaten and kidnapped for no reason - a cop tracks a guy down and takes him away, but no one knows why.

The cop/chick theme is very immature. The distorted scenes were cool, I did like those. They don't save it though. As said, it doesn't show Alexi playing the cool parts. It has nothing to do with the song.

Reasons enough?

Enough. It seems to me that not liking it is one thing, but accusing them of selling out because you think one aspect was immature is a bit extreme.

Then again, I get really angry when people say bands sell out, no matter who it is.

haha I still love Bodom. ALOTTTT.

No love for their music has drained from my body.

Lets be clear on that.

I've been in love with Shadows Fall over the last few days. I can't stop listening to them. :p
Thoughts without Words, Destroyer Of Senses, Welcome To The Machine, The Light That Blinds, The Power Of I And I, Inspiration On Demand, Casting Shade, Enlightened By The Cold, A Fire In Babylon, The Idiot Box to name a few favorites. :chug:

I'd say the video was towards selling out because of who it was aimed at.

You've made my day!

Those are all great songs, you just need to get some Of One Blood material in there. Amazing stuff.

Aww!

I have to download that album. I've heard good things about it.

I think Shadows Fall ranks within the top 5 Metal bands for the US.

Must say I disagree...but this is the CoB thread.

Oh... Shadows Fall discussion....

I just heard some of the stuff off of The War Within... I don't really like it as much as The Art of Ballance or what I have heard from Of One Blood... but it's still kickass...

Only important part from that.

I feel the same way. What have you heard from Of One Blood?

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I feel the same way. What have you heard from Of One Blood?[/QUOTE]

I have only heard a few songs... Crushing Belial, Fleshold, and To Ashes and are all that are coming to mind...

Crushing Belial and To Ashes are incredible songs, but you really need The First Nobel Truth, Of One Blood, and Serenity.
