COB is its own type of metal , meaning no one else sounds like them they are excellent and unique...........................................................................................................maybe alittle arabic music here and there in some of there songs.... heh

Except Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, R. Kelly, Nelly, Ludacris, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ashanti, and all the other rap people.

 

[Crimson Babe]

It's COB style as loWildChild said...

 

[Warheart]

CoB are melodic black metal

Death metal tends to be slower, even hevier and involves grunting instead of screaming, thats my opinion anyway.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Death Metal's answer to Iced Earth.

I agree.

 

[Alachi]

it's only FUCKING HEAVY METAL!!!
and please stop with this silly topic!!!

 

[TheEmperor]

I think Children Of Bodom plays melodic, technical power metal with a progressive touch, and black metal vocals, although they're pretty bad

Hybrid Black Metal

Yeah, a new one!
But it's not theoretical hybrid black metal is it?

Good Lord you guys, why does every band have to always fit neatly in its own little categorical box?! Isn't the beauty of some of these bands that they DON'T fall into one of these categories, that they are original? Stop categorizing them because it is only berating the band, just enjoy the music for what it is. They can call CoB Indian Folk music for all I care.

[King-King]

I consider them as DEATH/POWER Metal

 

[OzzOzbourne]

melodic metal..mixed with black/trash metal..or just HUMPPAA. this thread is so stupid.

 

[Wanderingblade]

If you find these threads stupid, don't go in them... fairly evident what this is...

Anyway, IMO Power Metal with extreme vocals does the Children fine

 

[Metal is Religion]

i would say they are a melodic death metal band.

 

[Timmeth]

Vocals aren't death vocals...


...More like Black Metal vocals

(Bleh, they aren't Death in other words...)
