Bodom are my favorite band of all time. Since I was 14 I've been enraptured by their unique sound and how it evolved over their 20+ decades of existence. As a teenager, I loved their blend of heavy riffs with soaring melodies with Alexi's high-wire fretboard acrobatics injected throughout. As an adult I still listen to all their music, and love every note of it. The metal community lost an icon when Alexi passed away, and I lost one of my idols. RIP Alexi, RIP Children Of Bodom. Gone, but never forgotten.

Alexi was a dear friend of mine. Don't forget that he was the one who composed all the songs and he was also few times selected as best guitar player in the world. He had same demons that i'm struggling with. it's called alcohol. It's really sad that young super talented guys just die with their addictions. I also had "in my rooster" this super talented finnish rapper and he died before he even turned 21. He also struggled with these things. R.I.P for all those who have died from alcohol and drug abuse

Greetings from Helsinki, Finland! I've been listening to Children Of Bodom for roughly 24 years, and I originally got fascinated by the cover art of Hatebreeder and then with the story of Bodom. If you like murder mysteries, definitely check the story out ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Bodom_murders ). For the music, I'd recommend to try out something a bit newer from them, because all of these three songs are 15+ years old. Personally I love "This Road" and "I Worship Chaos". If you like the "Hate Crew Deathroll", then "In Your Face" might be something you like. Since you liked Angels Don't Kill, "Morrigan" might be something you like. And for the murder mystery themed songs, "Silent Night, Bodom Night" is one of their most performed songs ever. Children Of Bodom was a great live band, so I'd recommend checking some live videos too. Of the songs I mentioned, I Worship Chaos here kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqjKY3eDbq2ZeJo might be one. Have a nice autumn :)

Children of Bodom's band name is derived from the Lake Bodom murders. The Lake Bodom murders is one of the most infamous unsolved homicide cases in Finnish criminal history. On June 5th 1960, at Bodom Lake in Espoo, Finland. Maila Björklund and Anja Mäki (both 15) and Seppo Boisman (18) were killed by stabbing and blunt-force trauma to their heads while sleeping inside a tent. The fourth youth, Nils Gustafsson, then aged 18, was found outside the tent with broken facial bones and stab wounds. Despite extensive investigations, the perpetrator was never identified and various theories on the killer's identity have been presented over the years. Gustafsson was unexpectedly arrested on suspicion of committing the murders in 2004, but he was found not guilty the following year.
