So much agree! Always loved Bodom, one of my favs since my teenage years and the one band I always watched when they came. There will never be anyone close to what they did in their style, so unique. They'll always live among my mix references for all the reasons you stated. Also aside from Warrel Dane, Alexi is the second celebrity death I've ever been sad about
I was introduced to metal/rock some time ago and since my friends are very capable musicians it was mostly prog metal because it's technically impressive I guess, but I felt I lacked the foundational "love" for metall to appreciate prog. As I'm someone who listens to R&B lol. But I started my own journey and found my place with Killswitch Engange, In Flames, Children of Bodom, and so on. This song stood out to me. One of my most played songs since then.
I heard everytime i die as soon as it was released due to my brother liking CoB, i was like 12 or something, i was hooked right then, was the heaviest i had heard until then, my brother introduced me to power metal and such before, dream evil, hammerfall to name a few. Had heard a few heavy songs but nothing that got me into the UMPF mode, but everytime i die i felt had that, then i listened to more and i couldn't stop listening to them, kept listening to them to this day and i will continue until for some reason it gets removed completely from internet, my computer and my CD's get destroyed! Also this was when ztv was the shit on tv, damn i miss old channles that played actual good music, fun/good shows and had movie nights (friday/saturday evening).
that´s truth that these days every freeking band sounds same. there not uniq these days in music. thanx to great doing about COB they really are uniq. have great weekend.
I hate scooped Guitars because guitar is not a bass... it's just self indulgent guitarists playing in their homes without bassists that came with the tone because it reminds them of what the tone will be in the album WITH bass... but any engineer worth their salt knows that guitars are in the mid range and bass handles the bottom end.
I have to disagree with you on the "best" metal bass tone. The bass on "The More Things Change" by Machine Head is one of the best bass tones ever recorded.

This song is in my top 5 drum warm up songs…it's a focking blast
amazing breakdown Joel!! thank you for doing this from a different perspective!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve been waiting for you to do Bodom. One of the best heavy bands of all time. You knock it out of the ballpark here.
How about trying to get Mikko Karmila for nail the mix? Mikko has done awesome sounding records over 30 years.
That hilarious keyboard sample thingy they use in every song... makes me laugh every time!!! Great song, very unique sounding
yesss! The orchestra hit thingy! Love it so much, it's hilarious but fits so perfectly for some reason :D
🤣

True!
Henkka is always overlooked on this band but he carries so much of the pulse of the overall groove!
Children of Bodom is the first band that got me to put my guitar in Drop C. They have a really special place in my heart, RIP Alexi.

Any chance of getting Mikko karmila to nail the mix with a children of bodom song ?

Straovarius - Eternity, would be great to breakdown.....What an iconic power metal album Episode is...
When we have Mikko Karmila in NTM?
Thanks! :)
My entry song to CoB 🔥🔥
I like Follow the Reaper remastered version more. Hate Crew Deathroll sounds like it was supposed to be some hardcore album
In flames!!
AMEN. Hatecrew Deathroll is THE greatest metal album, period. Thx for the breakdown!!!
Hell yeah!

Mikko Karmila - legend. Nightwish/Stratovarius/Sonata Arctica/ COB all of them are mix work by sir Mikko.
