Children of bodom

Beekay

Is this band any good?
i was thinking of getting one of their albums.
And was wondering which one was best.

Static-SC

Great band.. I only have one album.. "Hate Crew Death Role" well worth getting...

Karl Hungus

The first 3 albums are the best.

They're quite amazing live too, and I drank Alexi's vodka.

Ronan|Raven

Im surprised he didnt twat you for that :P

Fantastic group, and sheer amazing live the energy they put out is amazing. Truely great group.

Aye, but either he was too shocked, or that fact that I am MUCH bigger than him held him back.

Droogie

"Something Wild", the first album, is great...

"Hatebreeder" and "Hate Crew Deathroll" are class as well. They do a great cover of Slayer's "Silent Scream" on HCD, it's brillaint...

Mystic Fibrosis

They're good, and their musicianship is unquestionable, but to me all of their stuff is the same. I'm a fan of that style of metal but they're a bit too formulaic for me. Still, Silent Night, Bodom Night is a great song.

Mr. CooL ICE

One of my favourite bands. I have Hatebreeder, Follow The Reaper and Hate Crew Deathroll. Hatebreeder has some excellent songs, but they all begin to sound the same after a while. Follow the reaper hasnt many standout tracks, but is great but only as an album IMO. Sometimes a bit too many keyboards. Hate Crew Deathroll has one of my all time favourite songs, Needled 24/7. Never seen them live, but really want to

I was just talking to someone last night about Children of bodom he said that new album is there best....

I need to hear that cover of Silent Scream it sounds cool..

slssprite

One of the best bands in melodic death metal...Hatebreeder is my favourite.

Diarmuid

I only started listening to them 2 weeks ago and already I htink I've listened to them constantly since. Hate Me is a cool song. Quite a good few songs from Hatebreeder and Reaper are cool.

Dathai

Follow the reaper and Something Wild are worth getting.

But your only 3 foot tall (not literally, comparitively speaking compared to myself. heh)

Superb band indeed, and phenomenal live, they really stole the show at bloodstock last year, worth seeing live definately.

neGev

Yup, definately one of the better bands out there. I'd absolutely love to see them live.

funeral_forever

Spoderman

Hatebreeder or Something Wild

Zombienosh

aye Something Wild (The First Album) is my favourite, the live one Tokyo Warhearts is also a great one.

Spoderman

Picked up the new EP a few weeks ago but it's pretty average. Video clip is funny

Dathai

Try some Ensiferum if you like CoB.I recommend the Iron album.

moonboy

ha. i got punched by a girl in a fight over a drumstick at C.O.B at bloodstock.
she was big. and angry. very angry.

as a casual metal fan..id go for follow the reaper& hatebreeder..

cournioni

Have all of their albums. Great, great band.

Ronan|Raven

Ahah! Dathai you too have discoveed the joys of the mighty Ensiferum :0

Dathai

Indeed Ronan, Ive gotten meh hands on an album or two of theirs Im quite the fan of them.

Ronan|Raven

The first album aptly also named Ensiferum is my current favourite. Before the strom is a truely fantastic track on it. The intro is great. Hopefulyl will get to see them if I make it to Wacken.

Ah yes, The Treacherous Gods track. I do prefer the self titled album.
