- There it is. That's a whole vibe. Children of Bodom may need their own playlist at this rate. Reacting to Trashed Lost & Strungout was...an...experience to say the least.

R.I.P. Alexi Laiho
Children of Bodom was one of the bands I discovered in High School that really opened me up to this style of European metal. So stoked for you to check this out.
Aaaaand you're the whole reason I'm doing them. Cause you're a whole vibe.
Lake Bodom!
Same except, Children of bodom was one of the first bands I found that got me into metal. I've been a metalhead for almost 12 years. I was in high school when I first found them. Great memories 😢
same here, hatebreeder and follow the reaper were pivotal for the evolution of my musical taste.
I remember someone played their Britney's cover on a phone in school and I was like "LOL, but actually... these guys can play!" and I started to listen to them (since then I can't help myself but Alexi is associated with Britney Spears to me, he's blonde too :-D). I've been to their concert twice and actually the sound was kinda shit ))) But anyway it was crazy and entertaining.
"That's a special character." Sums up the legend he was in one simple sentence. RIP Alexi.
"I'm sure it's one of their standout songs..."
Nope, they're all gold.
Alexi was an impeccable songwriter! Beyond Gold standard!
People don’t understand how difficult his songs are to play unless they play. But the fascinating thing is, he’s doing VOCALS AT THE SAME TIME! Special special talent.
I got you brother. It's hard as fuck
th-cam.com/video/qfqaYt2HzZU/w-d-xo.html have a look at the live version of kissing the shadows. At 2:00 he sings the chorus and has the lead in guitar, insane! And at that time he was 21/22.
This song is RIDICULOUS to play.. That lead is damn near impossible
You can't believe how furious I have sometimes become when people in a party or whatever say "this is just noise and mindless beating of the drums". Ok, I can understand if you're not a metal fan but usually these kinds of comments come from people who have never touched an actual musical instrument in their lives and therefor have no clue how much talent they are hearing. My 83 year old Grandpa, as a former jazz musician heard COB in my teen age years and actually came to ask me "what band is this?" I told him it's COB from Finland ( where we live ), and even though he had hard time listening the vocals he hugely respected their melodies and composing altogether!
@@spectranaut2464 - Actually this is not so bad. Some of the most difficult are in the album Follow The Reaper.. also.. sixpounder's main solo.. yeah, I have pretty fast fingers but the fact you have to pick every note in that tempo.. OMG!! :D
he was a big part of the soundtrack of my life. alexi died just 41 yrs old... rest in peace wildchild,.
RIP Alexi Laiho. 😟 His death was announced today.
RIP Wildchild, one of the legends!
I'm 37, I grew up with him... feeling so sad.
@@thibautc.929 35, same here... it hurts when you lose a legend
RIP Alexi :( I'm grateful I was able to see you play live a number of times. Trashed, Lost & Strungout was certainly one of their most underrated tracks.
I saw you man. In 2012. I was with you
children of bodom is text book melodic death metal, they were one of the pioneers of the genre and in my opinion the absolute best at it, you know that Alexi Laiho was a special kind of frontman and musician, when guys like Dave Mustaine says that heavens metal band now has their lead guitarist. Laiho orchestrated a 100 man guitar medley for the honor of finnish 100th year of independence. he played fricking vivaldi as solos for fun, made a brittney spears song in to a heavy metal ballad, he was a hero of my youth and one of the biggest reasons i started to listen to the ogs in both metal and music in general.
Yep. I think cob and influences of alexi's playing can be heard suprisingly much in even modern days melodic metal
8:39 that shock-stare after having witnessed a keyboard-solo... friggin dead xD
Janne Wirman, the keyboardist was actually a very skilled jazz keyboardists when he met Alexi who grew up playing classical music with his violin.
Needled 24/7, everytime i die, are u dead yet ? In your face
Every song from Stockholm live 👌
Agree. Stockholm knockout live is avesome from a beginning to the end.
Nice to see I just need to upvote comments
agree with every one of them. I'd also throw in the song Children of Bodom
"Oooh, the bass!"
@@jaxi00 I watched that dvd almost every night in high school
well
they also did this thing lol
Children Of Bodom - Oops I Did It Again!
"Käsi luistaa! Perkele"
Chace needs, NEEDS, to listen to this as it will bring a deeply satisfactory smile to each and everyone's face!
😁
Yep, he really really needs to listen to the whole Skeletons in the Closet album. Especially the songs he already knows and sees/hears their version.
CoB's Oops cover is comedic death metal genius! 😂
When people at parties get distracted, I slip this song in the playlist just to see their faces
Suggestions for next song: "Hate Me!", "Kissing the Shadows", "Downfall".
Downfall! It was our cleaning-song during armyservice. 😆
YES! "Kissing the Shadows" and "Not my Funeral" have my favorite guitar solos ever besides "wintersun - winter madness"
Downfall and Kissing the Shadows are a couple of my favs!
Downfall is magical. I'm old enough to have bought the cd single back in the day. Also bought the polyphonic ringtone 😅
Just go through the entire red, blue, and green album and your all set with Bodom, imo.
Alexi Laiho is considered to be one of the greatest guitarist on the planet. 🎸Well Chase, now you have to listen more of them! 😎
Aleksi. ^^
@@kasumifu1541 When he is not drunk on stage :D
@@Dommak89 He doesnt drink anymore.
At least the best Metal Guitarist.
At least that's what i think, and the "Best Metal Guitarist" Award says
So fucking sad...seeing people praise him, always. Love him, forever. He changed me as a musician. Rest in Power Alexi ❤️
Children of Bodom? Now I never would've thought they would make it to this channel. They split up last year but I still listen to their songs. One of the best in melodeath.
Do they really considered disbanded? BAM is still COB though just that Laiho can’t use the name COB legally. The three former members held it for some unknown reasons.
@@leatfingies1367 you're not wrong. Alexi wanted the name that suggests it's still the same group. He can't use the name Children of Bodom legally until 2024. So who knows, maybe we get to see the name again after 4 years.
@@leatfingies1367 What Everett said. You're not wrong. They're still COB, just different name and missing three core members.
BAM just signed to Napalm Records (not that was ever any doubt) 🤘
@@leatfingies1367 Bodom After Midnight sounds like a spin-off series from Netflix. Aleksi reportedly sold his share of the band (according to Loudwire), hence the other 3 core former members now own CoB and its entirety.
R.i.p Alexi. In your Face by children of bodom was THE song that introduced me to metal - which lead me to more of bodom as well as soilwork, in flames, dark Tranquillity, and at the gates... amazing memories. Amazing band.
Actually Janne, the keyboard player, WAS in fact a jazz player, before he joined Children Of Bodom, so you're pretty much right! :D Great reaction video!
RIP Alexi Laiho 😭😭❤️
Mate! Omg! These guys are among my favourite melodeath acts. This song and In Your Face are on the top of my playlist. Premiere will be at 3:00am my time guess I have to wait til tomorrow as usual.
You are a trooper! It will be 12 noon for me, and the trials of insomnia may have me napping in my chair about then. I very much would like to see this. THIS is what I know of Children of Bodom: th-cam.com/video/FkT86H9wiTQ/w-d-xo.html That's Diana. She makes her own costumes! You should see what she does for Sepultura!
It's a goodie. Loved every second of this.
I'm pinning you along, Nova. I'm rediscovering In Your Face again after almost a decade and now I think my neighbors are gonna report me for public nuisance.
Seeing COB live was one of the greatest experience in my life. I've been a die hard fan of them for about 20 years now, I was already amazed after 0.5 seconds the first time I heard that music, and even after 20 years, I never get tired of it, it never gets old and I never cease to be awestruck. Was great to see your speechless reaction!
Cool to see these hometown boys on this channel. Nice to see their stuff being appreciated. The breakup was definitely sad, but not unexpected. So many stories and 'lore' about this band, but what's really important is that their music lives on, as well as the awesome memories of their truly epic live performances.
A huge Nightwish and COB fan (among other band), I am so happy you are now coming to COB. With your channel, I feel I am reliving my personal journey to metal from my teenage years.
My recommendation would be their "hate crew deathroll" album... I think that was their golden years with songs like "Needled 24/7" or "Sixpounder" and "Hate crew deathroll".
I would add "Triple Corpse Hammer Blow" to the mix :)
They're my absolute favorite band since i was 12, I'm 21 now and I still haven't got bored of listening to their songs again and again. CANT WAIT for you to react to their other songs too!
I can't wait. Haven't heard this song in along time. Love watching your breakdowns of songs I hear something new everytime I hear a song on your channel
My recommendations from them: Hate Me, Are You Dead Yet, Needled 24/7, Downfall
"Triple corpse hammerblow" is one of my favorites, and "Needled 24/7" for sure!
The keyboardist Janne Wirman was/is a jazz pianist.
He has his own other band called Warmen that makes some great stuff too! Including some great covers of Journey, Rockwell, Heart, etc.
Yep, he specifically only played classical and jazz until he worked with Children of Bodom.
Kekkonen perkele 👍
@@pulusuzuki6781 I admit this is only what us non-Suomi get translated by you buggers! If he had stuff prior let us know!
@@Nizman thanks man I had never heard of it, this stuff is amazing
This song is so good, brings back a lot of old memories. Pleasantly surprised to see this on your channel!
A fuckin metal anthem.. 4ever in my playlist. RIP alexi laiho
Dude... I've watched tons of music reaction videos and I've never hit subscribe so fast before. I love the way you break down each element and really pay attention to the craftsmanship.
Thank you so much for that Dominic. Honestly really nice to hear
One of the best songs by them. I miss these days.
The camo pants years of Laiho. What a beast on stage. Even tho i havent liked as much Blooddrunk RRF and Worship chaos, there are still solid songs in them. Hexed was a good comeback tho.
Brings me back to the first year of uni when my flatmate would play COB on full blast. Nostalgic. Thanks for this, Chase.
All songs from the "Hatebreeder" and "Follow the reaper" albums are a must! Those two albums are still masterpieces and an absolute pleasure to listen to. Happy you renewed with them. "Hate crew Deathroll" and "Are you dead yet ?" are awesome also. But I would start by the first two I mentioned. Great reaction !
Hatebreeder and Follow the Reaper are still the best metal albums ever! RIP Wildchild. ❤
So happy you did melodeath and what was that at 8:39 - 8:49? That was some good ol' lapse it seems haha. Saw CoB live back in 2017 with Lost Society and Carach Angren, it was a fun show. Some of them were drunk towards the end of the show but the energy was insane. Worth $30 tix :)
I would have loved to see them live. Band is beyond brilliant
Nice to see that you’re putting my home country on the map...again! 😅🤘🏻🤘🏻 I actually took pictures at one of their shows back in 2013, fun times.
I have to admit, I'm getting back to this video from time to time just to see someone being so enthusiastic about COB like I am :D
Well, you should give Stam1na a try... Allthough they sing in Finnish, music wise they are geniuses... Of course their lyrics are great too, but they might be a tad hard to undestand as a foreigner :-D
To be honest, they might be a tad hard to understand as a Finn :,D But yeah I agree, do Stam1na. Do Lääke.
Likainen parketti 🤘🤘🤘
Elokuutio
He should React to their new Coming album
You should react to theirs Silent Night Bodom Night live in Stockholm. The skill is through the roof
It's my favorite Bodom song. It's from the first Bodom album Hatebreeder from 1999. Absolutely amazing album. Pure energy and agression the whole album but still melodic.
@@lekalla Found the band in my early teens and was immediately awe-struck by the sheer talent and power
@@js5760 I was 13 years old in 2001 when i heard it. Also Nightwish and 80's Metallica at the same time. Holy shit what a combo for 13 year old kid.
@@lekalla I too found NW, Bodom, Metallica and Pantera around my 13’s. Good age to find the best possible music I think
@@lekalla Hatebreeder is their second album. Something Wild is the first. Love SNBN and the whole Hatebreeder album, though.
Rest in power wildchild missed but never ever forgotten 🤘😢🤘
Oh Chase. I had the same reaction as you - CoB are a band I've just never sat down and listened to, even though they've been a band I've heard of consistently for like 15 years. This track absolutely slayed.
Also your air-drumming is brilliant, it's like the drum is 6 inches from your face :D
I'm loving the fact that I'm from Finland. And that I was born at eighties. My youth was at 2000 The best music. ❤️
Yeah, Children of Bodom broke up in 2019, but the front man (guitarist/vocalist) Alexi Laiho started another band "Bodom After Midnight" in 2020 to continue - Sadly he just passed away last week so the story comes to an end.
Ok, I don’t usually comment on videos but I’m feeling emotional (because the lead singer of this band recently passed away) and because you have a true appreciation for the music it seems. As someone who grew up in high school listening to this band I recommend some other bands which I’ve also fallen in love with (ranked by order of preference) - across different styles yet not too far in certain ways since melodically very powerful and also very mature in terms of sound. Hopefully this helps with some of the catching up if you feel like you’ve been missing out :p
1. Ensiferum (and Wintersun, first album)
2. Windir
3. Equilibrium
4. Opeth
5. Finntroll
6. Falkenbach
7. Moonsorrow
8. Immortal
9. Children of Bodom (the first four albums)
10. In Flames (first 5 albums)
11. Summoning
12. Dimmu Borgir (early albums, including the remastered Stormblåst)
13. Kalmah
14. Amon Amarth
15. Korpiklaani
Pretty much the soundtrack of my school days. \../. Just throw in some more "extreme" stuff too like early CoF, Necrophobic so on - and you're there.
I have seen them 11 times live...yep...eleven. I guess one could say I really like them! Great reaction btw Chase!
Man...your face after that keyboard solo...🤣😳😳😳 Made my day ...👍 Great reaction and analysis... .just keep doing what you do..Chase doing Chase things..and I'm all for it and on-board..🤘..be safe and keep healthy ♥️
thanks for the releases, you are great. Don't stop no matter what
Sad to see that the front man has passed away
This was a very informed reaction! Ive seen them live about 7 times and they seriously got better every time. Flashy and fun in all the right parts
I remember seeing in a video like 15 years ago that the vocalist/guitarist is actually the one who writes the synthesizer parts, which would explain why they sound like a guitar.
My new absolute favorite thing is watching people react to COB! This band and Alexi means so much to me and it just makes me so happy when people get super excited with their music ❤ I love hearing all these technical things that you point out because for me their music has always been just about the feeling I get when I listen to them. So it’s interesting to hear someones opinion who actually knows something about music theory and so on 😂 Janne is the keyboard player and you should DEFINATELY check out his reformed band called warmen. Their vocalist is Petri who also happens to be the vocalist of Norther, another band very close to my heart 😊 thanks for this video it really made my day ❤
Same here 😊
Thanks for reacting COB! I really like their last album and a single from it "Under grass and clover"
As a keyboardist, I love your reaction to the keyboard solo 😃. Its really crazy! He is actually formally trained jazz pianist and I believe his father was jazz pianist too.
Rest in peace Alexi ❤ you made my teenage years so great
One of my favorite bands of all time, I don’t think they have a bad song in their entire catalogue. Their style changed from time to time but they always put out exceptional quality
First time watched your reaction. You seem to know about music a lot so it was very informative to hear what you had to say. Very good analyzing. Subbed!
I saw them in 2006. Still one of the top shows ive ever been to. Wish I could relive it.
Every song...EVERY song is the level of quality song-writing. They have one of the most unique styles I’ve ever heard. A heavier thrash-punk vibe meets some of the best melo-death melodies and neoclassical playing ever.
And man...Alexi was one of the greatest guitarists of all time. You could never completely replicate his solos when trying to learn them. He was my childhood hero and the reason I play guitar. RIP to the absolute legend. Gone but never forgotten.
he mix extreme metal with classic rock solo's
Since you asked for Bodom suggestions, Everytime I die.... not one of my fav bands but that song is awesome
I’ve always been partial to Kissing the Shadows. Great one!
Also just found them in the beginning of this year, but havent looked back ever since... The energy, the melodies, the whole character of this band is just awesome!
So raw, so wild in a way and so beautiful at the same time...
"Everytime I Die" sweet lullaby, little bit slower but heavy and melodic as hell! My all time favourite from their endless gatalogue.
Oh yes! Chase reacting to Children of Bodom, best friday ever! Thank you. ☺️
👌
its always nice when someone has the knowledge to really acknowledge how skilled they are and appreciates them so much.
Those guys inspired a little guy to pick up the guitar when he was young and hes still going strong, 14 years later. Man i love this band.
It warms my Heart to see you (re)discovering my absolute favourite from way back when. I would love to see more of them on your channel ( especially CHILDREN OF BODOM - Sixpounder as that is exactly the 2003 CoB that I grew up with and to this day love, and it has a music video, so that'll have to do ;-) ) and for the last as always: Commenting for stats, Like for obvious reasons
Came back to your joyful first time reaction to these melodeath heavyweights just to recap how awesome their compositions were from your unique perspective. RIP Alexi 🙏
You're wonderful. I'm sad and honoured
I sincerely am happy to hear that you enjoyed this band, they were one of a kind, always will be, and a lot of that comes from the lead guitarist/lead vocalist Alexi Laiho, who sadly just passed away at the age of 41 about a week ago in Helsinki Finland. I highly recommend checking out some other videos. If you like the keyboardist, you should do a reaction to Downfall, the keyboard and guitar intro and the build on that one is intense, and the drums are just chugging along. Yeah, you got 10 albums and about 2 albums worth of cover songs to tide you over, they did quite a bit of work in the almost 25 years they were around, one of my all time favorite bands. RIP Alexi Laiho
It's been a hot minute since I've listened to Children of Bodom. Thanks for the reminder of how talented they are!
Thanks for listening. They're fantastic!!!
Great reaction once again! 🤘🤘 COB has loads of excellent songs. Transference is one of my favorites, more on the melodic side of their production, but I’d love to see you analyze the riffs on that one. 🤓
my favourite track from the bunch by far, awesome reaction and analysis. RIP Alexi :(
I found bodom in as a freshman in high school and watching Alexi play made me pick up guitar and start playing with my friends throughout the rest of my high school time. Best 4 years I had.
Your face was priceless in multiple points of the video. :D The perfect summation of the words "What the... EVERYTHINGISHAPPENINGATONCE AAAA!!!""
Speaking of Finnish bands, I'll recommend/remind you to react to Wintersun - Time and/or Wintersun - Loneliness. ;)
Are You Dead Yet is also a really cool Children of Bodom song :)
Pretty cool analysis - it is not change of intensity but change of accent. That's why Alexi is considered a master of his craft for piecing these melodic pieces together while keeping things Raw and powerful. RIP Alexi Laiho. Wildchild has gotta be creating havoc in heaven \m/
The stare 😳 at 8:40 is a new one. Nice reaction, man!
😂😂😂
I literally laughed out loud!!!
So happy right now. Despite my metal youth, this is my first intro to CoB (I'm prolly too old). Mainly, though, I love watching your physical responses, Chase: you comment on instrumentation, and we can watch you follow it physically. It's really cool.
It's the equivalent of watching Julia (or Elizabeth of The Charismatic Voice) move their throats or jaws while watching vocal gymnastics LOL
Every single bodom song has something powerful in it man. Its something that was a different level
I have been listening to metal since i was 12 (from Finland)...but only now im beginning to understand it...it is more or less like a Classical Music. It has been nice to watch your very ”professional” reactions. I can find Similar reactions also by myself (enjoying)...allthough im not a Musician, Music has a really big part in our family. That is why cutting.pieces ”a part” is important...especially for future musicians like our children: guitar, piano and trumpet or whatever :)
Too bad no more COB. Alexi has a new band called Bodom After Midnight
That's effectively COB though.
@@timmokoo5679 Well if you consider Alexi Laiho and Daniel Freyberg as the core of COB then maybe yes.
I suggest you go check the live concert of Bodom After Midnight because Alexi practiced his stuff and plays his solos way better than he have in years
"This song is incredibly special. It appears that hard work went into that.." They're all like that. They're all like that my brother. All of the songs are like that
First impressions are key...... And you sir have earned my subscription. I was mesmerized the first time I heard bodom too. R.I.P Alexi "Wildchild" Laiho
Thank you my friend. Music lost a legend.
Coming back to say R.I.P. Alexi. Crazy for them to be popping back up so much for me lately and then for him to pass so suddenly. Crazy old world.
One of the most incredible bands I ever saw live.
They're all classically trained and have known eachother since primary school. The keyboard player was indeed studying jazz when he joined the band.
Rest well Alexi, wherever you are.
Holy shit your reaction to Janne shredding on the keys is priceless.
The face Chase does when Janne comes in xD
9:10 Yes, Janne Wirman was actually a Jazz Keyboardist when he joined Children of Bodom. They converted him into a metal head xD
And yes, Children of Bodom were incredible live! They were always about having fun and partying. In true finnish fashion they were always piss drunk on stage but they would still deliver everytime. I suggest you watch any song from their live DVD Stockholm 2006, they are all incredible!
But my absolute favorite will always be their song "Angels Don't Kill" from that live show. It's a beautiful melodic death metal ballad (yes, a ballad!) and in my opinion the best song CoB has ever written!
Yeah the hometown boys blowing minds! There is so much of Bodom if you want to jump in to the rabbit hole.
Welcome to Finland. Hope you have a good time 👍
This band got me into metal music and I had two chances to see them live for basically free, but didn't go. I thought i have time to go later and when i heard they were breaking up, it did feel really bad. I wish i went to see these guys, they were such an awesome band who helped me through the hard times and also inspired me to pick up the guitar and start learning it.
Saw them first in 2004 on Dynamo open air and Wacken Open Air, was amazing. Over the years several more times. Last time in 2019 on Fortarock. Always a party to see them.
RIP Alexi
Watched them live on their Relentless Wreckless tour. On of my all time favourite shows, atmosphere was elecric and their performance was godly. I need to revisit that album right now!!
mate, I cannot stress enough how much I was waiting for a COB reaction from you. I'd definitely go for something like the Follow The Reaper era next time , maybe Kissing the shadows live? :) (that's when I saw them first live, I think I was about 14 and they played with Nightwish and Anthrax in 2003 in Budapest). Opened my way to metal. Man, I am glad I was only 14 and didn't get drunk so I still remember every seconds of that show :D
Their first 4 albums is all you’ll need ☺️
But those you REALLY need :)
indeed! 5th and 6th is ok but first 4 are way more better than the rest
First 3 for me
@Swords Chant fake news 🗞
@@cypherredux2771 First four songs are some of their finest work. The title track is a romp of blissful angry execution
I really hope you look into some of their other works too. Honestly one of the best to ever be out there!
“Everytime I Die” has one of my favorite riffs ever. Can’t really go wrong with anything from their Hatebreeder or Follow the Reaper albums.
Edit: I was lucky enough to see them twice. The one show they did they only played older songs and it was killer. Not to mention Carach Angren was their opener so that was a great night.
Great analysis, thanks!
I love that one you did very well...Bar car XD
They have been like my favorite band since i found out about them in 2007! Follow the Reaper is the first song i ever heard from them in high school. I really suggest that song!
