I'd kill for seeing Wrath Within live, but 7) is Children of Bodom, not Wrath Within.
Average concert, but I don't get it, why they play In Your Face on every concert...One of the most annoying songs. Skipped Needled and Was It Worth It :/

Sorry about that, and they always play In Your Face lol
 
The camera angels suck, keyboards are inaudible. You can mostly hear Alexi's guitar and vocals. Besides I just don't think Not My Funeral is strong enough for a COB live DVD opener, but it still fits best with the intro with the start of the song, but I have a problem with the verses like most RRF verses... So maybe better this wasn't recorded. They need to rewise the setlist also. And I guess they were ready to cut 15 minutes from the show, because the huge open air crowd of Wacken was attracting. I don't know what they're gonna do with it, but I hope for a good stage and big crowd, and good camera work. I've seen much better COB Wacken videos, I dunno I guess someone put a lunatic in charge of things, it happens all the time in the world.

Awesome pyros in the SKO intro. Henkka also gets to do some bassing with the lengthened intro. I consider SKO among their best songs. The first one and half minutes of Roundtrip also ranks among the better COB material, sorry the momentum cuts at the chorus and only catches back again at the ending. Roundtrip to xxxx and Back indeed? :p

I don't know what's going on but it really looks like Alexi's exhausted, tired and seriously unmotivated. Listen to the passages. Something's surely not right. He's lost his passion.

I agree the beginning sound was bad I don't know if it was the livestream or technical problems live, the pyros were sick tho!
 
Yeah the SKO intro something like after 10:30 is worth watching, or skip straight to 11:45. Otherwise the show's nothing new. The smoke and lights make the flames seem way bigger too.

On a sidenote I think they should play the song same tempo as on the album, they play it with insignificant pace live.
 
Just got back from Wacken. The sound was great from the crowd and the pyro was insane but the setlist was kinda boring. Its my 6th time seeing them and they rarely change what songs they play. Still an awesome show and the torrential rain didn't stop people from flocking to the stage.
 
Weird.. from the crowd I hardly could hear Alexi's guitar, I could hear Roope's just fine.. But even though the sound was pretty bad at the beginning, I have to say that CoB was one of the best shows at Wacken, and the rain certainly helped with that:p

And the reason they play IYF everytime is because the crowd can sing that song almost louder than with HCDR:p
