I've never heard of playing half a song...

Why is nobody upset about this? I was on the gate for the Philly show watching Janne for my favorite part in Children Of Decadence........and it's coming up............any second now............wait, Janne is drinking a beer, he's gonna miss the part..........wait what the fuck just happened? Did they just go into Chokehold? Oh it's another Bodom mix, it's all good. They'll come back to the solos.........didn't happen. Then first time in America....Mask of Sanity!! Holy shit......so sick. The breakdown part is coming up.....Janne is drinking a beer, why isn't he ready with his grand piano sound? Oh wait what is this? They are going into Deadnight Warrior....oh it's okay, they'll come back to Mask Of Sanity solo section, that's the sickest keyboard guitar duel on FTR.........wait, Bodom is gonna let me down twice this show? Damn, no solo battle either, and Alexi skips the conclusion to the downfall solos? Not cool man, mad gay, go listen to Tokyo Warhearts, too sick man.........or Sinergy.......that shit shows what Roope and Alexi really could do
My take on COB's music is... their whole perspective on live shows has changed. They are having an awsome time, getting drunk, doing what they want to do, and being places they have never been before. If they straggle over their metronomes night after night on tour, they aren't doing what they want to do and the music would sound fake and not how they wanted to sound. If you want perfection, go see Dream Theater live, they will surely dazzle you with their amazing technique. But come on dude, this is fucking metal. It's all about doing whatever the fuck you want to do and if some of your fans do not like it, fuck them. Last time I checked, metal was about having a fucking good time.

What's even better is that they continue to put on excellent live shows without heavy practice.
 
Bucketbanger: Agreed. We all know they can play very welll and in the past they have played perfectly. Now they have nothing more to proove and are just having fun.

Agree:headbang:
 
They didn't fucking sell out.

Evolving and selling out are totally different things, and Alexi said he didn't like playing stuff like Malmsteen and the neoclassical guys anymore because everyone was starting to do it too, and he and the rest of the band decided that they didn't want to look like a bunch of people who follow the group.. so they changed their course and came out with something new that they like better, not that their fans like better.

It isn't their fault that AYDY has a bigger fanbase than the other cd's do.
 
THEY HAVE NOT FUCKING SOLD OUT IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER.

How do I know this?

Because they haven't started using tinny, clean vocals like all those shitty metalcore bands. Once they start doing that, THEN they've sold out. :erk:

uh, if thats the only thing you base it on then you're a bit stupid. compare the vocals on something wild or hatebreeder to are you dead yet. a lot cleaner huh? if alexi stopped playing neoclassical because he though everyone else was doing it thats kinda funny considering the style are you dead yet is in has been done even more. OH MAN ITS HARDER AND HEAVYER FUCKIN MTEUL YEA THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE LAWL.
 
They haven't sold out! They've just gotten more popular. Everytime a band changes a little, they say they've sold out. People have been saying the same exact thing since Follow The Reaper. Why do you say they only sell out on this album? They changed on HCDR so shouldn't they have "sold out" then?
 
No shit Alexi's voice has gotten better.. for one he's learned how to speak english... or somewhat has.

And if they've sold out, then why do you post here "MrFast".
