Why is it so much damn fun listening to Bodom ?

[Thrash]

Well, I was just wondering. Everytime (I die) I listen to one of their songs I just feel damn good, regardless of the mood I was in before. It just makes me grab a beer and wake up my neighbours (Hey, can't you sleep, too ?).

 

[DeadWinterDead]

Well, it's 'cause Children of Bodom rules!

 

[loWildChild]

Yeah. They rocks!

 

[ShadowLioness]

I'll tell you why.....

Cuz the first time you hear an Alexi riff you just go





After that you are hooked

Hey Thrash, I can totally relate. Whenever i'm really pissed off I listen to Bodom and it makes me feel 100% better. There's no explanation for it; they just totally kick ass.

 

[Carnivore]

because it's fast, hard and melodic...with a lot of energy

 

[Nova]

it´s like cerberus said - if i´m down and listen to them,i feel so much stronger after it!

 

[Final_Vision]

oh yeah, I totally agree.....Im pretty down tonight and it feels pretty damn good listening to Kissing the Shadows

Their just amazing because they have a really upbeat feel but always maintain that great heavy metal feel.

 

[Lutz]

Because it is happy music probably

 

[ThePKH]

Because there's plenty of "jau jau's", "JAAAAAAAU's" and other funny screams.

 

[Iceheart]

Indeed!

 

[Stun]

Who the hell made up this 'jau jau' thing? It's the stupidest thing ever, he's saying 'yeah, yeah', I'm 100& positive.

Or does it mean the same thing?

 

[Lari]

It just is 'jau, jau'. Discussion closed

 

[ShaneBarnes1982]

It's so much damn fun because they kick so much ass!! nuff said!!

 

[ThePKH]

Man, it does not sound as "yeah yeah".. Not even a bit.
It's jau jau and there's no further conversation about the subject as Shadeg said!!

 

[DeadWinterDead]

Yep, they're definitely unique!

 

[Stun]

I see. What does 'jau jau' mean? How do you know Alexi made up this word to scream? Did he tell you? Wouldn't it be more likely he would scream 'yeah' like so many others? Maybe it's just cause you're not English, because if you were you would probably see how stupid the concept is of screaming a gibberish word that sounds exactly like 'yeah' or 'yow' (both used very much by all kinds of bands)...


I think Children of Bodom are so fun to listen to because they has a (formerly) unique combination of "happy" keyboard melodies, brutal riffs, and vocals screamed/spewed out to give it such a wild edge... it is very uplifting music to me even though every single song has negative lyrics.

Obviously "jau jau" it's the adapted word from an old finnish term to seduce the girls. The practice demonstrated its efficience, it's strongly advisable to use it when there are groupies surrounding you, I tell you.
