CHILDREN OF BODOM To Release Collection Of Covers - Page 4

EddyRX10 · July 2nd, 2009, 12:24 PM

People have been asking for a compilation of covers for a while, when fans demand the labels are bound to supply so no need to rage out. Bodom are one of those bands that actually do great covers, I'll probs buy it when I can get it for a fiver off Amazon.

How can you be so retarded and always bash this cover compilation ?
It was never ment to be a new album or anything, its just the fact that a usual fan has no chance of getting all their covers together (besides downloading them).
The fact that they are even doing 3 new song per area is really suprising, thats like 1/3 of an album.
Its simply a very good thing, i dont see the point of complaining about it ...

Joonas Lehtonen · July 2nd, 2009, 01:51 PM

For me, death metal and humour just don't go together. Sure they have awesome covers, but I can't take that seriously. Just saying, if the next COB album fails, there will be no excuses - they can blame their own asses for devoting their energy into this. Haha.

sleeper666 · July 2nd, 2009, 02:15 PM

They haven't devoted that much energy - just two new covers recorded - so I don't see how that would adversely affect their next album. I can understand
that some people will not be interested in this compilation, but I think their covers are cool, and have become something of a COB icon. I will definitely buy it,
and enjoy the songs in the spirit in which they were recorded.

Joonas Lehtonen · July 2nd, 2009, 03:53 PM

Just getting too old for that playing shit drunk and singing like retard cuz it's fun. Maybe I'm too serious. They're cover songs after all, nobody should care, and just like the cover songs this whole idea is orchestrated by the label.

gilbite · July 3rd, 2009, 12:23 AM

crap jpn release...

I don't know what it is but there's something seriously wrong. Why the fuck would you whine so much about the cover album? COB have always been on for funny stuff and never been the kind of tr00 band you seem to take them as. They do great covers. People wants the cover album. They release it. Where's the problem?

And about affecting the new album, WTF? Covers were recorded already in the begining of the summer, so there's no way they're affecting to the writing of the new album. Take it easy man, take it easy.

Joonas Lehtonen · July 3rd, 2009, 04:36 AM

As I said, death metal and humour just don't go together for me. COB are great with that little bit of party feel many of their songs have.. just don't cross the line..

children of COB · July 3rd, 2009, 05:35 AM

COB are not death metal Joonas.

Joonas Lehtonen · July 3rd, 2009, 08:25 AM

As long as they don't change their name to Booze Brothers I can sleep thru my nights.

vitorias123 · July 3rd, 2009, 08:50 AM

Ive read some old interview on serbian where Alexi said that they could do a album with covers cause fans like their covers a lot or smth like that.Im going to translate it today and post it tonight,its on serbian and its so looong and google translation sucks.

So ill need some time.

exactly man!!! i will definately buy too!!!

cherrie-0 · July 3rd, 2009, 11:15 AM

Why so much complaining over this?
If fans want it and they want to do it,I don't see the problem.It's good for the fans that can't afford to buy every version of an album to get the extra song.Since I fall into this category,I'll definitely be buying it.

The Butt · July 3rd, 2009, 11:49 PM

They've always been extreme power metal.

They've had melo-death influences, but they've never been death metal. At least not straight up.

Edit, on topic: CRUSHING DISAPPOINTMENT at this cover album

No they weren't. They had some dm influences, but Bodom has never been dm.

+1!

maybe wierd to focus on that, but i'm realy curious what the album cover is going to look like!

children of COB · July 5th, 2009, 02:55 PM

Well I know why I am disappointed in this cover album. There's only three new tracks! I was hoping for like a 2 disc release or something with a whole CD of new covers and a CD for their older ones. I thought they would at least put some of their unreleased covers on there as well. Like Waiting (For the Darkness) by King Diamond or Sukset by Popeda.

Joonas Lehtonen · July 6th, 2009, 04:22 AM

A whole CD of new covers? Since when have COB been a cover band.

children of COB · July 6th, 2009, 04:22 AM

Sukset? Never heard that. About the KD cover, if they never released it it must be for a good reason imho. About the double CD, although I did expect 4 or 5 new tracks, I don't think recording that many would be a good idea, because this album was meant to be a compilation for the fans that don't want to buy every single edition of the albums to have all their covers. And, as a bonus for those die hard fans, some new covers. But that's me.
