ShoogaSlim posted:^ not core in the slightest I know people like ragging on Shoog but he isn't wrong. By what metric does Children of Bodom (assuming that's what CoB means here I'm at work and can't view YT lol) wizardmetal belong in this thread If it's something else my criticism status is now PENDING Thanks for listening to my TED Talk

It's been a few days with no conversation, thought I'd post new music for discussion  e: discussion other than "THAT'S NOT -CORE  " I meane2: also they're sure not Erra or BoO but I think we may have very different definitions of wizardmetal

Bodom is not core at all but talk about them in the metal thread at your own risk (it'll probably be fine).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lcv97YqNqHI this is the only good children of bodom song and i can only get through like 45 seconds of it before i have to shut it off for being goofy as poo poo. there's a whole slew of metal bands with really dark and imposing imagery used across their discography and merch but make music barely more aggressive than alice cooper. ghost is one of the more contemporary examples of this but COB is definitely in that camp

I want a turn! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lcogYNPORc This music is arguably more aggressive than https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUmS9TVspAU Those synthy keyboards are lame as gently caress, my guy. Every -core band that uses them, from Bleeding Through to Make Them Suffer, would be tougher sounding without them. By the way, if you want to hear good melo-death, Arsis did a bad rear end cover of that bad rear end Alice Cooper song I posted, and I'd rather listen to either version than Children of Bodom, straight up.

After we finished recording, Ian mentioned, kind of joking, "Hey, we should do that." Later that night, I sent him programmed drums for what ended up being our first song; eight or nine days later we had our first EP up on Bandcamp; and two weeks after that Yasiel Puig actually heard one of the songs at the MLB Fan Cave in New York.
