      Too bad Alexi can never really play this song too well live. And well , i wouldn't blame him. He does vocals and plays leqd guitar at the same time. Fucking song is HARD to play. Especially the solo. Christ i fuck it up all the time.

    Hatebreeder album (came out before this). Alexi took a lot of inspiration from classical music on that album (I think Mozart in particular, although I could be wrong). It's probably my favourite album from them.

      @@johnwhite8847 both of them and more actually...definetly Bach and some Beethoven aswell.
      Red Light In My Eyes Pt.2 is absolutely Mozart (parts of Requiem I think), The Nail has lots of Toccata & Fugue in Dm by Bach, Hatebreeder (song) references the Magic Flute (Mozart) and Black Widow another piece also by Mozart that I can't remember right now. Oh and the intro to Warheart is a line from the Mozart movie
      I can't think of any direct Vivaldi reference but without a doubt he was the main inspiration to how Alexi put together his solos and developed his own style...so it's hard to choose, he feels more like Vivaldi but he definetly paid the most tribute towards Mozart
      FYI his main black metal influence was Dissection and there are a few CoB riffs that clearly were inspired by Dissection riffs (The Days Are Numbered, Lil Bloodred Ridin Hood, Halo of Blood)

    Awesome. I'm glad you went with this. This isn't necessarily their most well-known song, nor their 'catchiest', but I figure I'd request the one where they completely obliterate everything instrumentally and where the lyrics aren't offensively bad (because a lot of their lyrics really are terrible). Their keyboardist is a big deal in the band, and he really bounces off with Alexi on a lot of the soloing. If I were to request another one, I'd go with "Silent Night, Bodom Night". Another early power metal styled song of theirs. But a song that maybe a lot more people know that's worth checking out is "Sixpounder". From their album where they started introducing more thrash and groove stuff into their sound, but on that album they handled it much better than a lot of the albums that followed it. Sixpounder was the song that kind of put them into international fame as it came with a music video and stuff like that.

    • @JuniioMusic
      @JuniioMusic  Před 5 lety +2

      Dude knows what he's talking about. I too love Hate Crew, the new elements never took from the band's sound, but rather enriched it. Hatebreeder, Follow the Reaper and Hate Crew are all 5/5 to me, great stuff. Relentless Reckless Forever is my favorite of all the albums after those masterpieces, even though it never reches the heights of those 3, it's a very well rounded and effective album imo. Anyway, react to some more of their stuff, you will not be disappointed. Cheers, guys.

    Best song, solo and album they ever did. The lead guitar in this song... Jesus! Just an amazing record. Their mix of melodic death metal and neo classical was just great, sadly their lost their "touch" after the next record.

  • @patucca6399
    @patucca6399 Před 5 lety +1

    Thank you sir for another great reaction! One of my favorite bands and definitely not one that is often reacted to (definitely should be). Many like to label them as "melodic death metal", they've definitely one of the more accessible death metal bands IMO and I mean that in a good way!
    Blooddrunk is actually one of their "later" albums, In Your Face is a song from their album Are You Dead Yet, that one came right before Blooddrunk. If I had to give a rough description about their discography, I'd say their later stuff is more riff- and hook-driven, and the earlier stuff focuses more on virtuosity and solos, make of that what you will. Hope the video gets a load of views, and keep up the good work. Peace!🤘

    If you like bands with many influences mixed with many other genres, i suggest you should listen to Swallow The Sun - Lights on the Lake, ranging from soft parts, doom metal, black metal and melodeath, ... in one song. But it works, better than that, it's masterful. It has a downright haunting lyrical theme, appropriate for the music. They are one of Finland's most respected musicians. Great video btw
