New Bodom

By "sounded like them", do you mean bands whose songs don't engage the listener because the vocalist is awful and the melodies leave you never needing to hear a single one of their songs again? Because I can name thousands of bands like that. :heh:



Admittedly, my wording could have been more concise. The point I was trying to make (IMH,YIWIO), is that their songs are very average. I just don't think the success they've enjoyed is commensurate with their songwriting. And add to that equation, the one time I saw them live they sucked.

I liked their early-era energy and manic'ness, especially with the guitars. Not that many bands play with that much shredding during the melodies. I suppose I like them for similar reasons that I love early to mid era In Flames.

Yep, I loved the energy, the guitars, the harmonies, etc. Listening to this song makes me wish I had brought my guitar to my office:

I agree with a lot of the others in terms of Bodom. They're just a fun band and I would say they're unique. Granted, their last few have not been very good. However, this sounds promising; in particular I dig the guitar/keyboard battle solo.
