How do you Pronounce Bodom

[IcedEarth556]

I was in the record store the other day and my friend was buying Peace Sells But Whos Buying. The cashier was telling us how it was a classic, so we asked him what other bands he liked. When he was stating his list he said Children OF Bottom. Me and my friends have always been saying Bo-dumb. does anyone know how its really said.

Something like "Boddom" would be right...

Hail people...

Take a look at the old treads, there are one about it!!!

Yeah, why does everyone always wander about this?

I pronounce it "Bow (like a bow and arrow) - dumm"... I've seen lots of others... Someone once pronounced it "Bedroom" but I believe he was joking. Let's hope.

listen to "bodom after midnight"...

The correct form is "Bo-dumb" or "baw-dumb"... It´s the name of a finnish lake, and this is the Scandinavian utterance...

Alexi says Bodom in:

Silent Night, Bodom Night
Children of Bodom
Bodom After Midnight
And after the live version of SN,BN

...not in Lake Bodom, though. Oh well

Bo is pronounced like 'bow' or 'doe', dom like 'dumb' or 'rum'.
The 'dom' part should be prounounced with a shcwa, but you can just say it like 'dumb' and I don't think anyone would notice the difference.

He sometimes says "Buudom", and sometimes "Bodom".
I always say "Bodom".

Believe me, next time they come here on tour, if I can see some of the guys, I´ll ask them how it´s pronounce....
