DT's covers arent that bad. IE's covers are just Maiden rip offs.

Look very similiar to me. Thumbs up! You should be a Private Investigator.

In fact they are so similar to me I think Iron Maiden might suit Jon Schaffer.

So CoB stole the 'Eddie' thing from Maiden too with their Reaper mascot?

:lol:

I bet Children of Bodom stole Iced Earth's music and Iced Earth stole Maiden's songs and music too.

He means that Jon stole the "Eddie" character from Maiden with his own version, "set". not to mention everything else...

First things first.

Yeah Eddie looks identical to Set. :err:

I hate bitches like you. That complain about this band stealing that idea and this and that.

Find something more constructive to do in life.
 
I want a Giger tattoo somewhere.....
It rules over bodom-related stuff. No offence, but the stuff outside CoB's music is pretty bad, cd-covers+video's. But I don't care, 'cause they are a band. I wouldn't take any bandrelated tattoo, no matter how much I idolize them. Try to find something original(ish), so no barbed-wire on your upper-arm.....

Ever heard of the word homage?




Also I dont like the idea of having a cob reaper when I'm 60

My friend got an In Flames tatoo a few years ago.
Man o man. What a fool
my musical tastes may vary slightly but ill always enjoy the music i do now. as for a band tattoo...i dunno, kinda cheesy. if im going to put something on my body permanently (which i already have and plan on many more) im going to make sure that its going to retain the same personal meaning after 10, 20, 30 years, that it did the day i got it....and even if i still listen to CoB when im 60, im positive the personal meaning that drove me to get the tat in the first place would be gone.

all i need is atleast $2000 and im gonna go and get my back done...too bad its prob not gonna happen for a few years
 
Why are you people talking about cd covers being ripped off by other bands in this thread. I thought this thread was about Bodom tattoo's not Iced Earth ripping off Iron Maidens CD cover ideas. This isn't even a forum for Iced Earth or Iron Maiden.
 
Call me too rational, but I was never a fan of band tattoos. What if CoB starts to suck a few years down the line?

Not saying it's going to happen, of course, but look at Metallica. I have to wonder about people that got Metallica tattoos back in like 85 or 86...
 
One of my friends wanted to get a Bodom tattoo a year ago, I told him that it would be a very unwise thing to do and that he would regret it. Well now, due to his deep obsession with various black metal and other more underground extreme metal bands, getting a bodom tattoo is the last thing on his mind. 3 years ago I would've gotten a Bodom tattoo...I surely wouldn't now though. But, do what you want.
