CHildren of bodom

what is your view on children of bodom people?

Good band, wrong room. I'll move this to the Metal Room and you will get more responses.

Ehh, C.O.B. are OK I guess. Great musicians, not too crazy about the WOOOOOAAAARRRGH vocals though (but that's just personal preference).

I will admit they have GREAT taste in cover songs... some of them are priceless, like their cover of Britney Spears' "Oops I Did It Again"

i like them ok. nothing amazing, but a good band.

yeah,they are decent for what they do.Nothing groundbreaking.

CoB are one of those band who I buy then trade their cds. I love them sometimes and wont spin them for a long time. I have to say that this time around I like hatecrew deathroll a lot more than i used to.

I like these guys, but I hate that somehow they somehow got popular with the Hot Topic crowd, which then generated all kinds of e-hate. I hate e-hate. Haha.

And yeah, their cover songs are entertaining. Unfortunately they don't take them seriously, which makes them a little less enjoyable.

i like em good power metal.

Um...they're not a power metal band. They're a melodic death metal band.

I like them, but I have only listened to Are You Dead Yet

That's WHY I like their cover songs so much. They must know that the "troo grimm kult" crowd will get their undies in a bunch when they cover a Britney Spears or Andrew W.K. song, and they obviously don't care, haha!

Vocals can get a tad old but the music is so melodic and catchy that it is easy to overlook.

I like them. The interplay between the keyboards and guitars, specially in the early days was/is great.

Hade 1 album downloaded, was not impressed. Saw them live, was not impressed. Think this band is not for me. Shme really, becasue their style is!

They are very talented in my opinion, they're are just not for me. They sound a little sterile to me. Fantastic musicianship, not much heart.

i like the music, but those vocals are harsh, Fav song is Hate Me its killer...

most of my metal friends really like them alot and always talk about how aweosme they are. I think there a pretty good band (I have a COB t-shirt) but I cant say I listen to them very much any more I've heard pretty much everyone of there albums and there only a handful of songs that I still listen to. I adgree their talented musicians but alot of there songs are very similar

i heard a new song from the album called Banned from Heaven and i have to say it was boring with no disctinct riff or melody it just went nowhere as a song. they dont do a lot for me i am afraid

Uh oh...two CoB threads on the same page...

Yea but due to Saxon and his wankery nature that other thread is gone Tit's up, I assume MetalRob reactivated this one to get abit of discussion about the band going again as the other thread is useless, it in fact should probably be best placed in the "Of Unsound mind" section so the guys can shite away among themselves.
