death or children of bodom?

Death has great aspects on EVERY instrument, where-as Bodom is only good on Guitar... I don't think there is anything as boring as Bodom's bass lol. Every bassist hates to play it... Death is psycho on Bass. Fun, challenging, different. Drums in Death are just unbelieveable. Bodoms is just the same ole beat over and over pretty much... I prefer Alexi's riffs and solos and stuff more then Chucks, but Chuck has some wicked riffs and leads too! Also I give Death props because they don't have keyboard happying up their sound, and they keep it Raw. Symbolic is one of the best albums EVER, from any band. It's amazing.

:err: ...
dude, the drums aren't the same beat over and over again, get your ears checked. your ok on the guitar, kills death. and some death is killer.Death's bass is fucked though, probably better but thats it. the guitar is definately better in Bodom, in some Death songs the timing is more brutal. and fuck man the keyboards are amazing how does it add happyness, get a fucking life, check out Norther and Kalmah all that has keyboard:rock: , and there are many keyboard effects you probably don't notice in a lot of songs and with bands you don't realize keyboards are fucking amazing.It belongs in heavy shit aswell our keyboardist adds to Pantera and its killer. Death are fucking good but they have nothing on Bodom.

Death has the songs that are better then Bodom, or do you fail to recognized that its more then just fancy guitarwork?

the minute bodom can write a riff like Scavenger of Human Sorrow is the minute bodom has anything on Death. not to mention every fucking song on The Sound of Perserverence.

Please get that load shot in your face. That was the greatest pile of stupidity I have ever come across since I was subjected to a rant on the philosophical implications of not using the upper frets on a guitar and the virtue thereof. You do not deserve a response.

As it turns out, I like Death just a bit more than a load of flashy guitarwork, wanking keyboards, and double bass that wishes it could be Richard Christy. Do I like Bodom? Yes. Do I think they have the right to walk on the same planet that Chuck Schuldiner made his music on? After watching people spew idiocy like the above, fuck no.

Dude....the thing I really like about bodom is the fact that they HAVE that ''happy'' sound. Just listen te Needled 24/7. Thats fuckin cool...follow the reaper is full of those ''happy'' melodies...and that album is concidered one of their best. The reason why I didnt really like AYDY is because the happy sounds are basically gone. That pisses me off.
:yell:

Edit: Ill download the songs u mentioned
 
Nah, if you're into melodies and stuff, TSOP will be more accessible. Try Scavenger of Human Sorrow, Bite the Pain, and Story to Tell. Once you've listened to that stuff, and perhaps Overactive Imagination, go with the stuff the other guy mentioned. And that's the whole reason Death rules - because the melodies, in addition to everything else, are not overplayed cheese - the melodies are VERY original. You've heard melodies similar to Bodom's before - but definitely not Death's.

why would pleasing the fans give him less credit? he made control denied so he didn't have to sing, that was his solution. Death with different vocals wouldn't be Death anymore, hence Control Denied...

True that man. He thought about the fans and the band before what he wanted to do, and he still kept it going strong. That gives a lot more credit in my books.
