I'm having a hangover morning so what about an imaginary shake-up of the COB live setlist. Don't care about any limits, it's obvious a band needs to play the hit-songs and the new songs, and they also like to play songs that necessarily don't sound good or they don't like to play but a lot of fans recognize and go crazy, the drummer can't have ten fast songs back to back and they can't switch guitars between every song... Just type the kind of setlist you'd most like to see live.

Also, if you have a particular light theme in mind for a song, add the color accordingly. One thing that's bothered me is they sometimes don't stick to natural light themes, for example they could have rainbow colors for Follow the Reaper and it's all a big mess and feels similar to other songs unless the listener is familiar to their discography.

I guess most fans would like to see a lot of songs that are not played live, if they had the chance to create a dream setlist, so don't just list all the Needled, Angels, IYF etc, nobody will care to read. Let's use just 14 songs, 16 is too many... I know this thread has probably existed for multiple times but things change and so on... Something I came up with:

1) Taste Of My Scythe
2) Children Of Decadence - blue and purple lights
3) The Nail
*change*
4) Punch Me I Bleed - green lights
5) Shovel Knockout - green and red lights
*change*
6) Silent Night, Bodom Night
7) Lil' Bloodred Ridin' Hood - red lights
8) Chokehold - blue lights
9) In the Shadows
10) Northern Comfort - blue lights
*change*
11) One Day You Will Cry - darkness with green and blue lights
12) Tie My Rope - blue and purple lights
Encore
13) Knuckleduster
14) Lobodomy

9) Roundtrip to Hell and Back
*change guitars*
10) In the Shadows
11) Hatebreeder
12) Mask of Sanity
Encore
13) Northern Comfort

I guess... light according to the album artwork would fit.
 
1)Relentless Reckless Forever
2)Taste of my Scythe
3)Lake Bodom
4)Black Widow
5)Were Not Gonna Fall
6)Hellhounds on my Trail
7)Lil Bloodred Ridin Hood
8)Follow the Reaper
9)Not My Funeral
10)Bastards of Bodom
11)Downfall
12)Everytime I Die
Encore
13)Deadnight Warrior
14)Hate Crew Deathroll

Tried not to pick some of the songs they play a lot live.
 
My idea is to to start off and hammer out the really in your face songs for the first bit then start slowing down into atmospheric bodom until the encore where they return to two more face melters.

1) Triple Corpse Hammerblow (Most epic starter of all time!!!)
2) Mask Of Sanity
3) Dive bomb last note of Mask of Sanity and dive right into Silent Night
*SWITCH*
4) Restart mood with bass intro into Bastards of Bodom
5) Roundtrip to Hell Back (ease into the Atmosphere)
6) Shovel Knockout
7) Banned from Heaven
8) Angels Don't Kill
*SWITCH*
9) Time to get massively atmospheric with a bang, Children of Decadence
10) Bodom After Midnight
11) Every time I die
12) Downfall
Encore
13) Smile Pretty for the Devil
14) You're Better of Dead (if the crowd is into this song it would the the most amazing thing ever!)
 
Wouldn't it be cool if they had tour for every 2 or 3 albums? For example they tour Europe and play only songs from SW and HB. Or SW, HB and FTR. Then they can move with the trash thing and make another tour for that.
 
1) Start off with some eerie keyboards, then right into Northpole Throwdown
2) If You Want Peace, Prepare for War
3) Triple Corpse Hammerblow
4) Children of Decadence
5) Black Widow
6) Bed of Razors
7) You're Better Off Dead
8) Sixpounder
9) Tie My Rope
10) One Day You Will Cry
11) Trashed Lost and Strungout
12) Kissing the Shadows
Encore
13) Lake Bodom
14) Ugly

Didnt really pay attention to guitars or lights, I just think that would be one awesome setlist
 
1) Mask of Sanity
2) Chokehold (Cocked 'n' Loaded)
3) Black Widow
4) Pussyfoot Miss Suicide
5) Triple Corpse Hammerblow
6) Banned From Heaven
7) Tie My Rope
8) Touch Like Angel of Death
9) Lil' Bloodred Ridin' Hood
10) Red Light in My Eyes, Pt. 1
11) Punch Me I Bleed
12) Trashed, Lost & Strungout

Encore

13) Not My Funeral
14) Hate Crew Deathroll

that would be cool
 
1) Not My Funeral
2) Children of Bodom
3) In the Shadows
4) Silent Night Bodom Night

5) Hatebreeder
into
6) Bed of Razors

14) Kissing the Shadows
15) Downfall

I want this so much.
 
Kissing the Shadows could be an interesting opener. It's such a deep and interesting song with different emotions and several highlights; it has those 'ending drawing near' feelings (natural final song), but that's also what makes it a weird opener, but there's different feelings too.

It's interesting to think which songs could be interesting when played back to back, the transition always creates different chemistry.

It came like lightning out of clear sky, I thought about KTS as an interesting opener, and how nicely Roundtrip to Hell and Back would fit as the following song, just a quick guitar change during the keyboard/bass that leaves humming after the last notes, and keep it humming as the melody of RtHaB begins to play thru the 'fog' and then join in with the strings. It's not just the transition moment, but the chemistry keeps affecting for a full minute or so before you forget about the previous song.

Many songs can lose their touch and momentum if the previous song has a wrong kind of vibe, that's why playing with the order of the setlist (or songs of an album) can make big difference.

Thing about the opener is it's basically the only pure song unaffected by the chemistry of the song before. You can affect it with intro however like they do with Not My Funeral with the intro transition which works nice.

KTS wouldn't be a bad choice for finishing the gig also.
 
I think that In the Shadows would be the best closing song, leaving the crowd so affected that several suicides would follow after the magic of the ending.
 
1). Roadkill Morning
2). Lake Bodom
3). Silent Night, Bodom Night
4). Blooddrunk
5). Roundtrip To Hell And Back
6). Towards Dead End
7). Hate Me!
8). Are You Dead Yet ?
9). Follow The Reaper
10). Trashed, Lost & Strungout
11). Sixpounder
12). Everytime I Die
13). Hate crew Deathroll
14). Downfall
15). Kissing The Shadows
