Do your parents like Bodom?

[Undefined]

Random thing to ask, but I'm curious if anyone's parents here like Bodom. I was burning my dad a CD the other day (he is 58) with shit like Def Leppard, Bob Seger, The Eagles, etc on it. Then he asks me to put 'that band I always listen to' on it, referring to Bodom. I put on In Your Face and Hate Me! He seems to like it.

Is there anyone else out there this has happened to? Discuss.

I downloaded all the songs on my dad's comp, which consist of mostly rock stuff, but also children of bodom, which he likes. I showed him some necrophagist aswell, but he didn't like it

 

[Dunununuuu-NUNUNU]

my dad who's a music freak does like the musical part of it, but doesn't really like the screaming . My mother hates it.

 

[Fury of the Storm]

My dad digs some of Follow the Reaper.

 

[jmbullet]

Both of my parents enjoy the music but can't stand the screaming, that's why they never listen to Bodom. but I made them listen to some solos of Alexi and Janne and they liked them. But even though my dad doesn't like Bodom, he came to their concert with me twice

My parents hate heavy metal in general, but my mother loves Therion! Go figure.

My mother likes some songs from COB, but she likes more bands like Sonata Arctica. I actually dunno do my dad like COB...

 

[a Guy with a Scythe]

Dunno if they like it. Comparing it to what they listen ... probably not.

I am a parent (I'm 53). I've been into metal since I was 16 and I aint stopping now just cuz I'm old and somebody's mum! I love Bodom (and some far more extreme stuff besides) and I have recently succeeded in converting my 15 year old daughter. (Btw, hi - I'm new!)

I would love to have a mother like you

My parents hate CoB
My dad makes fun of me and says things like
" The headbanger arrived " in a very sarcasm way and my mum...
she just doesn't like but stays universal when it comes to music

My parents hates CoB. Maybe they would like it if they where Finnish.

 

[valkokukka]

My parents don't like any kind of metal so probably they don't like COB either. I'm not sure if they would even recognize the name.

Since I'm parent I can tell that my kids like Bodom a lot. My 4 year daughter thinks "it's best dance music ever", but she also thinks that Ville Laihiala from Sentenced) "has much better voice than Alexi" .

 

[Chamet]

nope, my parents don't like any kind of metal...they don't mind it tho.

Same. Although my dad used to be heavily into Iron Maiden, he saw loads of their concerts when they were still a small band and had only just got Bruce in their lineup.

He promised to me that he would find the old 1984 World Slavery tour shirt he bought, but he never found it

 

[Pђoenix]

My dad digs The Echo Song by Paul Gilbert and that's just about as far as he goes into liking my music. Bodom I guess he just thinks is weird along with everything else.

 

[Kochon]

my mother likes it, i always put the follow the reaper (not burned) CD in her car and she enjoys it, she also likes slipknot and system of a down

 

[Swabs]

she also likes slipknot and system of a down

Fail.

 

[Conti]

My dad likes children of bodom a lot. Especially Angels don't kill. He also like Iron Madien and some other power metal bands. He came to children of bodom and iron maiden shows with me. Though he despises any kind of death metal.

 

[Fastbodom]

well i only live with my dad but he find the guitarplaying and the keyboard and the harmony of the guitar and keyboard very inpressive but he doesn't like the vocals but fuck that i like it

my dads favorite is the Tokyo Warhearts intro on Touch like angel of Death

 

[Nerve]

My mother often stoles me CDs, like Muse, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater, Blackfield, Vertical Horizon, a lot of 70's things I have to re-burn because she keeps them into her car -___-" but things like CoB aren't her thing at all.

My dad loves COB almost as much as I do, actually we have pretty much the same taste in music, except that he also likes techno and the occasional hiphop song uke:

Actually, without him dragging me to the Böhse Onkelz festival I probably would've never gotten into COB so much... I mean, I had already listened to some older stuff, like Tokyo Warhearts and Hatebreeder, but only after I had seen them live I became a "true" fan.
