"Children Of Bodom"

Does anyone listen to this black metal group? They are amazing.

Check this video out:

Children Of Bodom

I have two of their albums.

 

Ahhh, the good ol' world of black metal: deep, albeit oft-times angsty, powerful lyrics made meaningless by unintelligible screaming. w00t.



Go n-ithe an cat thú, is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat.

 

I'm quite partial to the Children of Bodom, I need to listen to them more often.

 

I typically do not like more modern metal bands. I'm into like Priest, Maiden, Sabbath ETC, but COB is actually a pretty good band. I have "Follow the Reaper" and IMO, it's an amazing metal album. Alexi Laiho has crazy chops and is influenced by guys like Steve Vai and Paul Gilbert. So yea, I'm a fan.

 

Explain to me how CoB are black metal.

You need some Darkthrone, MayheM or Burzum. Then tell me CoB is Black metal.

CoB is melodic death metal/power metal with screams. Their first few albums were good, then they did Hate Crew Deathroll, which sucked, and Are You Dead Yet?, which sucked more.

Alexi is a great guitarist though.

 

Children of Bodom = Finnish
I = Finnish





Still, I haven't ever listened to them.

 

Probably a lot of Finnish bands you haven't listened to, CS I haven't heard all the British ones. Then again, Finland's population is a tad smaller

 

Although I, too, am finnish, I can not understand this COB. Their songs all sound alike. There's nothing but screaming & words you only understand if you happen to read the lyrics. Then again I have a bad hearing.

Children of Bodom = Not my bag of tea...baby

edit: How's it hangin cobra ?

 

When you always use the same scales, you run out of notes and patterns to use That's CoB's problem. Plus the fact they always play in the same tempo: fast

And I'm okay Kyp. This reminds me, I should really remember Phat more often

 

You're right and you're right.

COB sucks & you should visit phat more often

Though I wish my ban was over. I miss some people over there

 

They did a good version of "oops I did it again"

 

More like Children of Boredom...

 

They did that ?
Ok, that's their only good song. God bless Brittany .... NOT

 

I've got one of their songs, Lake Bodom I think. I dig it.



Rick McCallum loves you!

 

I only liked the track 'Bed of razors'. Other than that, pass me a pillow so I can sleep...

 

Yep yep.

 

Children of Bodom Black Metal? there is not much of if anything Black Metal about them.

Listen to Agathodaimon or Emperor that's Black Metal.
