You favourite COB guitar/keybaord melody?

[Hammer of Might]

One of my favourite things about Children of Bodom's music is the fantastic guitar/keyboard melodies in their songs.

I'm sure you all have your favourites, so what are they?

So far I only have the Follow the Reaper album - one of my favourite guitar melodies on here is...

Northern Comfort: 2:27 (approximate time)

This is a slightly different riff to one that is used in other parts of the song, but this is the only time when they play this exact riff.

I really wish they'd incorporate that one melody into the song more than once, because I ADORE it. I can't really explain why, it's just like sugar to my ears!

What are your favourites?

Yeah that part in Northen Comfort is awesome.

Lets see another one that rivals that is - 3:54 into Towards Dead End and the rest of the song from there.

 

[TheSeldomlaid]

Erm...Angels don't Kill, when he starts that Touch Like Angel of Death-soundalike lead.

And Downfall from 3:07 (I think) and out.

 

[asphyXy]

Downfall: The whole song. Especially 1:46

 

[BodomiC]

Hatebreeder - Bad of Razors 1:44 and many more... Defenetly cob are a great melody creators

 

[Flodom]

Northern Comfort: 2:27 (approximate time)

[spellbound-by-the-bodom]

Deadnight warrior - 2.01 guitar melody esp live when they slow it down

 

[loztdignity]

Yea, i think its northern comfort for me too...if its the part Im thinking of..when the beat gets faster and alexi starts right? That part is kick ass!

 

[Hatebreeder86]

Towards dead end intro \m/ and...every time i die main lead is cool too. And NC has some cool melodies too!!

 

[charnee]

i dont no they exact time..but the end of Kissing the Shadows...and more

 

[EagleFlyFree]

Towards Dead End has a fucking great intro melody, and it's really hasty too

and Silent Night Bodom Night... drooool, gotta love that riff with the blazing double bass in the background... even if it's not really a melody

and well, in FTR there are like 10x the ammount of melodies; the best i can think of is Children of Decadence in the chorus... goodness!

then Bodom After Midnight, the chorus melody with the cymbals, oh yeaaaah!

and the grand finale, Kissing the Shadows!!

 

[ND24/7]

i dont no they exact time..but the end of Kissing the Shadows...and more

Even if it's not that technical... just a fuckin groovy part ; Bed Of Razors Solo. But yeah.. CoB are the masters of melody!

 

[Cebbe]

guitar: bed of razors

keyboards: downfall

 

[egonomic666]

BODOM AFTER MIDNIGHT guitar keyboard harmonies after the first chorus reminds me of the movie "the rock" for some reason

 

[MagSec4]

Children of Decadence - from 3:30 to 4:23
Ahhhhhh!

 

[Hopatcong after midnight]

children of decadence

 

[BOdomLI]

1. Wrath Within
2. Lil' Bloodred Ridin' Hood
3. Angels Dont Kill (especially after I've heard that solo live!!!!)

 

[-Rivfader-]

Oh I almost forgot, 1:22 into Follow the Reaper. That melody is simply awesome.
