Did COB rip off video game music?

[DIEDOTEXE]

Well, of course they didn't! I just wanted you guys to really hear this!

My passion for video game music and my cult like love for COB have led me down to find my classical roots all over again.

The old Sega game "Outrun 2020" I was playing on my emulater has music that reminded me so much of Children of Bodom, I had to see what other people thought. I ask anyone to express their views and thoughts on this. Heh, I'm gonna try to learn this specific song on guitar! Take a listen and tell me what you think...

(Listen to it for at least 1 minute.)

 

[Earth Breather]

Hmmm, it actually does sound like some sort of instrumental COB would do...

 

[-Merrild-]

I didnt listen

 

[(__Joonas__)]

(Me neither.) You probably enjoy Hatebreeder the most of CoB then?

 

[Ruins]

aye sound nice theme for CoB lick
@joonas
(i assume )yes he does. and so do i.

 

[(__Joonas__)]

I don't because it sounds like video games.

 

[DIEDOTEXE]

I didnt listen

then why did you reply?

 

[Rock Hydra]

then why did you reply?

Postcount ++?

 

[coolsnow7]

If so that would be pretty damn pathetic.

 

[DIEDOTEXE]

Postcount ++?

lol. Probably.

 

[Hatebreeder]

An instrumental of "Taste of My Scythe" would make a fine Final Fantasy battle theme.

Needled 24/7 makes me think of playing Metal Slug. And I also enjoy Hatebreeder the most.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I'm ashamed that I don't own "Something Wild" yet. I almost bought it, but instead purchased Death's "The Sound of Perseverance" and Opeth's "Ghost Reveries".

 

[Lithium]

lol It's quite cool

 

[<-Warheart->]

I don't think it sounds like Children of Bodom throughout most of it but that section from 01:12-01:50 is awesome, I'll probably transcribe that.

 

[Bloodred Scythe]

Nah I don't think it's CoB

 

[Lithium]

Transcribe it to GP5

 

[<-Warheart->]

I only have 4 so it'll be in that.
