Even before this album was released and before anyone could have heard a sound of it, quite everyone knew that this will not become an album worth a 10. Children Of Bodom have changed too much to return to the old awesome tunes. The band stated before the release of it that Relentless Reckless Forever would happen to be the best Bodom album ever. Blah blah the same shit a band always cries out for marketing, but in this case it even sounded ridiculous. I admit that I was one of those who decided not to spend money on this record. But now I am glad that I am not that firm with my principles in some cases! Expecting some Blooddrunk shit with only more party atmosphere it was a real surprise to me when I first listened to it.

Imagine a man walking down the road, traveling right down the middle, never wavering, never stopping. Maybe it's dark out, a slight echo to his footsteps. All of a sudden, the man stops. His ears perk up for a second, shrugs it off and keeps right on walking. That is about as close as Children Of Bodom are on this record to returning to their classic sound. Read more ›› |

After hearing the new songs, I think I'll give this album a 6, if not a 5 when I hear the whole thing.

Written by ForeverDarkWoods on 20.01.2011 at 20:25 Opinions obviously differ because I think later Darkthrone is total crap. They should have called a quit after "Transylvanian Hunger".

This album looks to continue the downward spiral...I don't have high hopes for it...was it worth it is a b-side of the song blooddrunk(thought that song was good in my eyes), ugly sounds a tad better...when I heard first the spoof of was it worth it I said, oh they are going to a more melodeath sound(haha, yes they are extreme power metal in my eyes) just be dissapointed.

Yup, listen to the album then judge it. This album is better than HCDR, it's actually somewhat GOOD aside from the lyrics and song titles.

Now that makes me feel relieved. I was hoping for a decent follow-up to HCDR at last, which is one of my all-time favorites.

Just listened to the whole thing. It sounds really good IMO, although the vocal distortion is a bit excessive at times. It's pretty cool that a band like COB earns a few fans around the world after years and years of touring, etc. and suddenly if they change sound at all --SELLOUT!-- if they don't change their sound --STALE!-- if nobody liked metal at all, certainly every metal album released would then be a masterpiece.

Significant improvement from Blooddrunk definitely. But the magic of the old Bodom is definitely gone forever. I guess this change in direction might get some new fans that previously ignored the band. But for all of the people who just love the first 3 albums, this will still sound like a disappointment. Personally, it's a 6.5 from me, just because they have improved the sound since Blodddrunk, but I still crave for those old albums of the early 2000's. Sigh.

Written by [user id=41104] on 05.03.2011 at 07:36 ...unless change leads to more boring things than stagnation would. Stagnation is always better than devolution.

Nice one, the first three song are awesome. After that, it's ok but nothing really devastating. Anyway, best one since HCDR. Nice solo from both guitar and keyboard and they play faster again.

To me this is definitely the worst album by COB. I've always supported the band, but the last two albums are just lame. They keep going downwards... Like Ravenking said, changes are good as long as the result is better, not worse. Ugh.

Account deleted Written by Rozz on 21.02.2011 at 04:02 Why do non-American's think so lowly of Americans...  Jealousy I predict, but thats not the topic at hand. As far as this CoB album, the songs I've heard of it are fine-catchy enjoyable somewhat pop-esque metal tunes. Nothing to die for, but nothing to hate on either.
