"melting together"? there are clearly distinct cutoff points for all of the architecture in the artwork :confused: some of the stuff is obviously fused with other elements of the artwork but nothing that doesn't look like it was painted by hand

I mentioned this last week, but I'm on a major Children of Bodom binge lately. Specifically the first four albums. I still can't get over how good Something Wild is for a debut album from a band of 18 year olds. To me it's like a death metal take on a Yngwie Malmsteen album and it's very unique. The song structures are kind of free flowing, but still cohesive. And there's the neoclassical element that underpins a lot of the guitar solo work. But at the same time, there's a lot of other different metal styles mixed in with the songs. The Nail has to be the highlight of the album for me, especially the sweep picking part at the end (and the Malmsteen quote with the final sweep).

gently caress! I hate that Alexi Laiho died from alcoholism. He still had so much to contribute to metal. I don't think I really appreciated his guitar playing until I relistened to those old albums. That poo poo was crazy coming from an 18 year old!

It's okay if you have any questions.


If you haven’t check out Sinergy, a side project between Laiho and Kimberly Goss of Dimmu Borgir.

P.s. weren't they dating when this album came out? I remember reading some dross about it.

Forgot to ask Laiho when I met him after he rose from powering through 4 lines of coke backstage

Sinergy never really clicked with me fully, but the opening track of their last album whips insanely loving hard.

Bodom post

I've said it probably multiple times now but Bodom were my primary gateway band, I'll always love the first 3 more than most albums and I think Halo of Blood is one of the strongest comeback albums there is. Alexi was the first celebrity/musician death that really hit me, then Trevor after that.

Anywho, asides from the myriad of clones that they spawned when I am in a Bodom mood I usually end up listening to Sonata Arctica and Stratovarius since there's so much of that same DNA shared between the 3 of them.

CoB laid some groundwork for me appreciating harsh vocals, but Laiho's style still always grated me somewhat so I didn't listen to them that much. Norther's Dreams of Endless War was the first album with harshes I ever bought and fully enjoyed, I guess because Lindroos' rasp is more even and intelligible.

The album still holds up really well tbh.

The last Bodom album (Hexed) is a solid return to form too but Halo Of Blood was definitely their lategame peak.
Bodom After Midnight also released a 3 track EP which was supposed to lead into their full album but obviously now won't, and it wasn't bad either.
Alexi died way too young. Also Sinergy was great and I wish we'd got the 4th album. :(

The guitarwork is obviously very similar, but overall Sinergy is on the lighter side compared to CoB, what with the clean vox instead of Alexi's YOW YOW screeching.

CoB is usually classified as melodeath, but honestly they were kinda their own beast, imo.

Decibel Books is proud to announce the publication of The Scott Burns Sessions: A Life in Death Metal 1987 – 1997, a massive 480-page oral history of the celebrated Morrisound recording career of iconic extreme metal producer and engineer Scott Burns.
Synonymous with the rise of death metal in the late ’80s and early-to-mid ’90s, Burns was the man behind the boards for the essential works of Death, Cannibal Corpse, Sepultura, Obituary, Deicide, Napalm Death and Terrorizer, turning their raw, chaotic sounds into something not just listenable but legendary.
The Scott Burns Sessions: A Life in Death Metal 1987 – 1997 looks individually at over 100 extreme metal albums, by nearly 70 bands, that Burns recorded throughout his career. This lavish hardcover by David E. Gehlke—author of Turned Inside Out: The Official Story of Obituary, No Celebration: The Official Story of Paradise Lost and drat the Machine: The Story of Noise Records—goes deep inside the hallowed halls of Morrisound Recording for exclusive, detailed, in-studio accounts from Burns and the bands that made death metal history, accompanied by never-before-seen photos from Tampa music scene photographer Tim Hubbard.
Packed with tons of rare and never-before-seen photos—highlighted by a glossy 16-page photo section—as well as a foreword from acclaimed extreme metal producer/engineer Dan Swanφ, the 480-page The Scott Burns Sessions: A Life in Death Metal 1987 – 1997 is exclusively available for pre-order now via Decibel. Copies are expected to ship in late October/early November.

Coupla new Apostolica tracks. Kinda like Sabaton I guess if that's your jam. Was kinda hoping for an Abba cover the the latter one, but oh well - we still have the Turisas version.

A lot of people somewhat derisively call melodeath power metal with harsh vocals but CoB are genuinely that.
