I remember the first gig I saw at a youth center in Espoo Kirstinmäki. The crowd was not nice. Well shame on them. You've come far since then ❤ Cheers.
I was such a huge cob fan when I was younger (still am) and I always found myself listening to Inearthed, sometimes even more than cob. R.I.P to a real one 🖤
Seeing all the comments about how other people knew about Children Of Bodom way before their old albums like Hatebreeder or Something Wild makes me feel something I can’t put into words...
before Bodom I saw Alexi play at a small park gathering/concert that was organized by a friend of mine. He was playing stuff like the theme from the Super Mario Brothers and some Slayer riffs etc. He was an awesome player even back then. Edit: I did a quick Google search and you can actually find some of the material from that era here on TH-cam. Search for T.O.L.K Alexi Laiho
Dude, that's my image! I made that back in college in Photoshop. So awesome seeing it being used. I've been meaning to make a better resolution image, but never made time.
That's amazing! I used it because I uploaded the remastered version so I thought that a higher quality picture would fit better, credits to you for making it though! :D
+Wildchild Industries. Awesome. Yeah I used to listen the the Inearthed Demos on loop while donating plasma trying to make a few bucks in college. got tired of the faded original image. Was going to remake each cover, bit stalled when I finally started a real job. So cool, thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Fun fact: Talking of The Trees and Mask of Sanity share the same middle part. I always liked this one better with the woman singing. I was 15 when I heard about IneartheD for the first time and did not even know they and COB was the same people. I only conntected the dots when I heard Mask of Sanity and remembered the interview where Alexi said they needed to fake a split in order to get out of a very bad record deal from a belgium company. Ah, the nostalgia this demo brings me
Even more fun, 5:41's riff was used again when he was recording with Impaled Naz in 2000. A lot of great riffs from this era made their rounds in his later works.
The 2 homeland are really awesome. I had them on a CD compil my girlfriend made me in highschool 10 years ago. I didn't know what I was listening too back then...
That’s just mind blowing listening to this right now, while in lockdown due to Covid-19 and the split of COBHC made me nostalgic. Ahhhh mannn ! I praise for Bodom after midnight new Aleksi’s band.
Hopefully someday we see these young demos remade with COB crew and Astia Studio! Offcourse Alexi voice have to be taken from these but wouldn't be a problem nowdays..
I like the moment at 3:00, it reminds on Follow the reaper bridge before solo. :) PS, hello every idiot! Try to find every fucking video related to COB and moan in comments about Alexi death instead of listeting to his music.
+Sir Kitten Lord Of Tuna I recorded every song one by one and then put it in one compilation, this wasn't taken from the official tape cause the quality was horrible. :)
Lie ! The talking of the trees, the reaper is a tree Brought to serve and crying out, feel it, it works loud Talking of the trees, Listening to the trees In the dark, the lifestyle it's your goddamn fate Fate ! We're come to reign, where death is bound Silent Scream, these words she screams about [Whispering] I hear the cries, this music and this flash Those dreams before this flash (what they're about?) It is all gone Die... Out, Another Dream, Blood for Rain , in dark the reaper will come out second Dream, above the dream, Silent Scream [Woman Voice] And the face mesmerizes painting of blood and wine stars falling over me shadow the mighty wolf fighting on and on Lone ! Forever you saw the tree, their talking of the betrayal Together fly, deliver and reaper with his blade Go! You never grab my soul to die, kneel forever more Nothing is left, time to go, time to our return Never soul, it's time for death, kneel forever more Time seems death, time to life, it's time to our return Home Why? Do you wanna die? Dy-ing !
@@23gtrh2_02 Thank you very much!!, would you be so kind as to pass me the lyrics of "vision of eternal sorrow" now? and sorry for the inconvenience, I have never found or understood her listening to her
It's a shame that CoB never rereleased these songs with better production. Trve Black Metal fans can hate me all they want for saying this: Shitty garage-quality recordings make for a shitty listening experience. Great music is great, but bad quality doesn't make it shine.
Omg the memories. Had this demo on repeat when I got it from a friend who went to the same high school with Jaska. Awesome times.
Love to hear that!

@@JaniStefanovicOfficial yes on Finland concert
Rip wildchild. You'll be missed.
Jaska is such a great drummer

Imagine being this talented so young... RIP 😢
I love the Black Metal influence.
rest in peace Alexi Laiho
Came back to this after 8 years... Man I miss Bodom and Alexi.. Literally why I play guitar to this day! That demo is still as awesome as I remember
We will miss you:'( Rest In Peace Master!!
You always will be awesome!!
RIP Alexi! You are great!
the songwriting talent is amazing!

@@Razz415 hey! i know this was 7 years ago but do you know where the original photo comes from? i've been searching for it for ages!
It's great to see rhythms that Alexi would use later for COB songs, it makes me sentimental lol.
Rest in Power Alexi

Ok i know what you mean now thats when they got picked up by Spunefarm i do believe and changed there name to Children of Bodom

Who's ready to see this name come back after 20 years
oh my god yes! alexi doesn't have the rights for the name cob anymore so fuck yea!
Bodom After Midnight i think
its bodom after midnight now on :/
Not anymore and never will again.. :'(
@@Dralace....ik 😭
Really want to see live footage of this early formation if it exists
This brings at my mind great memories
R.I.P. WILDCHILD 😫🖤
Sounds more like atmospheric black to me. RIP Alexi, your music is beautiful
17:14 Towards dead end !!!
That’s just mind blowing listening to this right now, while in lockdown due to Covid-19 and the split of COBHC made me nostalgic. Ahhhh mannn !
I praise for Bodom after midnight new Aleksi’s band.
You guys got to listen tssss aahhh :) what a feeling joke
@@RodrigoLaiho7 Monday was a mess unfortunately, I’ll hope that they pay tribute to Laiho with the band.
@@humppa5 yes... he deserves a whole movie or documentary in my humble opinion.
@@RodrigoLaiho7 Yes he does ! We must have one.
RIP god of metal
So beautiful...
Homeland has the similar sub-solo riff with Deadnight Warrior also
Homeland 2's intro also reminds me towards dead end
cob albums are great but this is beyond great...
R.i.P brother !!
The beginning of everything.
Awesome early work. That’s sound more black that COB!
RIP Alexi
Thanks for sharing this preciosity!!!
Awesome sound !
+Haesty Scamp :)
Hopefully someday we see these young demos remade with COB crew and Astia Studio! Offcourse Alexi voice have to be taken from these but wouldn't be a problem nowdays..
3:10 Mask of sanity *o*

Wooow es cierto, thanks bro lml
Haha I hear Follow the reaper part before the main solo :D

R.ip Alexi Laiho.

3:15 the drums goes in the wrong tempo
+Alfonso Esteves They did that on purpose, they changed the rhythm of the guitar riff as well.
The reaper could have my soul in return for a copy of this.......
Nice, man. ¿Where did you find this?
+Sir Kitten Lord Of Tuna I recorded every song one by one and then put it in one compilation, this wasn't taken from the official tape cause the quality was horrible. :)
This sounds much better. Thanks bro :)
Who's the girl singning?

who is the girl singing
Nina Keitel
Lyrics?
Lie !
The talking of the trees, the reaper is a tree
Brought to serve and crying out, feel it, it works loud
Talking of the trees, Listening to the trees
In the dark, the lifestyle it's your goddamn fate
Fate !
We're come to reign, where death is bound
Silent Scream, these words she screams about
[Whispering]
I hear the cries, this music and this flash
Those dreams before this flash (what they're about?)
It is all gone
Die...
Out,
Another Dream, Blood for Rain , in dark the reaper will come out
second Dream, above the dream, Silent Scream
[Woman Voice]
And the face mesmerizes
painting of blood and wine
stars falling over me
shadow
the mighty wolf fighting on and on
Lone !
Forever you saw the tree, their talking of the betrayal
Together fly, deliver and reaper with his blade
Go!
You never grab my soul to die, kneel forever more
Nothing is left, time to go, time to our return
Never soul, it's time for death, kneel forever more
Time seems death, time to life, it's time to our return
Home
Why?
Do you wanna die?
Dy-ing !
