What's next for COB?

Hmm....they say having a life changing experience like a knock on the head that causes amnesia can be reversed by a similar incident. Sooo...My theory is...get alexi drunk as hell... and push him off a car again...well, actually maybe a house, I'm thinking it will decrease the margin for error and then he should snap out of it.


Fucking genius...for sure.
I like aydy...not as much as follow the reaper, but whatever.

I bet the real reason for Alexander leaving was because he saw how gay the band were going, and that he would be forced to play shit.
Yep, that's why he left the band in 2003 when no single riff for Are You Dead Yet was written. And this could also explain why he recently said that he likes the new album very much...

What! I can't wait for this DVD. :(

I hope you're joking...

Nope. It just takes time to produce a DVD.

you obviously didnt know anout alexanders time machine... he only tells his best friends... :p
 
I think they'll stick with the 9 songs per album tradition, it's a perfect amount. But seriously, to wait 2 years for 9 songs is a bit hard. They should tour less and write more music.
 
I wish they would not cover anything anymore... COB have done too many covers, in my opinion.
A follow the reaper style album would be nice but it's hard to imagine COB going back to something that they've already done

moreover, i would understand if all those 9 songs were hit songs... but when some of them suck - it adds to the disappointment....:cry:

or maybe he didn't like the new 'fucking fuck you!' attitude and image with all the camo and such, also do you think he would honestly say if he thought the album was shit?

+1

I'll hope to see something more Follow the Reaper style, but with Alexi's new voice change it will definately be interesting

Alexander was wearing camo at Tuska....

I was going to say the same thing, he wouldn't say it was shit.
 
Yeah, let them redo an album they already did, and sell out!

Great fucking idea. Whether you like the new album or not, the artists integrity should outweigh what a bunch of twats on a messageboard want. If they make another HCDR, FTR, SW, Hatebreeder, or AYDY I'll stop listening. The one tihng that keeps me coming back to bands, is if each album is different from the last. If they repeat themselves, then that is selling out. Cause its fucking dickless, and completely piss-headed to try and go "back to your roots" or some other fucking bullshit just to sell out more with the old fans. Thats being a bitch, simply put. YOu make a decision with your music, and you move it where you want it to go. Thats how all the great bands did it, and the system hasn't failed yet.
 
Naysayers are gay.

How come so many people think they are cool for talking shit. This is the Children of Bodom message board - if AYDY was really all that bad you wouldn't still be here.

Aside from that - the album isn't that bad. It's a little different, but not much - and it SURE AS FUCK DOESN'T SOUND LIKE NUMETAL. Where the fuck did that shit come from? There's not a damn thing beyond the 'i don't give a flying fuck motherfucker' lyric on the whole album that sounds Nu-metal.

So Alexi made a gay chorus. ONCE. Oooooohhhhh they must suck now.

Honestly the music doesn't sound like too far of a jump from HCDR - the songs where just written differently, with singles in mind now that people are paying attention. It's almost the same amount of difference between every other album.

NOW THAT PEOPLE ARE PAYING ATTENTION is the reason why there are so many tards running around thinking they'll win respect on the internet by talking shit. Just because the band is popular now doesn't mean they suck. AYDY takes me just as far away from here as every other album did before it. :heh:

You want your band to be cool to you again? Quit TALKING SHIT about them. Would you care about giving your old fans what they wanted if all you ever heard them doing was bad mouthing you? I'd start doing shit just to piss them off more. :lol:

I'm sure the next album will feel like a more solid, continuous piece. There are alot of reasons why this one was written differently - and now that they've gotten more comfortable in there new 'popular' surroundings they'll present us with a new opus.

I'd expect the next cd will be Follow the Reaper quality.
