Weakest from what stand point exactly? I for one have never actually been a fan of the old method where one guitar plays a melody and the other one plays power chords, it's actually quite a primite way of writing songs.
Dunno, IMO it's the weakest because the melodic/soloing thing is what I've always liked most of COB, and also because the songs were a bit more 'random', meaning that it was not exactly AABBABCB, they tended to be a bit more caothic, and I loved that. In AYDY they are very structured and even though I like the album (I'm in love with Living Dead Beat, ) I miss that things.
Yeah, that's true. I love progressive music aswell, but when it gets to chaotic, as you mentioned, it doesn't really do it for me. I pretty much only listen to CoB for the riffs, which on AYDY seemed to be the most reminiscent of Sinergy (which i enjoy more than anything done by CoB)
You just mentioned one of the things I used to love about COB: this organic flow of the song. They used to just write what they thought was right, and the songs had a natural, nice feeling of progression. I once showed some Hatebreeder songs to my guitar teacher and he was impressed with this detail as well.
tl;dr I'm not saying you can't have an opinion. But people who voice the same opinion a million times should find something new to discuss. If you didn't like it fine. I don't like caramel, but I don't talk about how much I detest it. I can tolerate other opinions, I have a wide taste in music so I can understand why people like things, and why they don't. I can see why some people don't like AYDY, but I really loved it. And that fact aside, I would also tell osmeone who says "OMG COB IS THE BEST BAND EVER ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS A FAGGOT" to stfu.
Cool songtitles, I like them. So, if those were descriptions of the lyrics, how is Lobodomy related to lake Bodom? Unless another one is Bodom-related?
Maybe this whole thing about every album having a song about Bodom just went to shit. I'm finally going home. Fuck work, hello Guitar Hero 3!
I'm a bit of slow but anyway it's cool to know all the songtitels - now I'm really looking forward the new album. The name Blooddrunk sounds good as do the songtitles. Don't know what else to say... so, maybe I just keep my hands off the keyboard till I get that fucking album. That will probably be my fav song because of the story behind it ..! Seriously, I think it's just healthy for Alexi to do a song like that. Y'know . Go Lobodomy! * ...Why do you guys always end up discussing about how suck ass album AYDY is, even though now you could talk about Blooddrunk? That's just insane and B-O-R-I-N-G. I'm thinking exactly the same way as Heartless_Name: My post was kind of pointless, but y'know - what ever the fuck, I'm bored . /edit/ arrghh! Too much typing errors >.<.
I don't quite like the new names. But when I think about it, many bodom names are silly...As long as you don't know the songs. From what I've read it looks out to be a great album. I'm really looking forward to it and some of my other favourite bands who are releasing albums in 2008.
