Slipknot and SOAD overhyped? roflmao. If those are overhyped then Children of Bodom is definitely overhyped, they're vocals are horrible, only have a good beat. Also, some of those bands aren't popular maybe just maybe because they're death metal.
lol this made me laugh,
Go to your school ask them if they know who soad or slipknot are, they will say something like "hell yeah that shit is badass" or something ignorant then asking about children of bodom they will say " who the hell is that" just because a lot of people on here enjoy there music and maybe some people you know irl don't mean the masses know of them all that well. and to be honest slipknot and or soad can't compare to any band on this thread thus far.
As for children of bodom , you think alexi's vocals are horrible? they certainly aren't great but for a death metal or melodeath perspective there some of the better ones you can understand him a lot better than most and not to mention has great lyrics for example.
Follow The Reaper
Loosing the war I'm feining to win
though I never tried to to strive deep
from within. Life could be beautiful
for anybody it's for, but I'd swear this
mothafuckin' shit is rotten to the core.
The portal has been past and it's
time to make a turn, to follow the reaper
until the point of no return.
When your blindly death-raying blade
sweeps the griefs and fears away.
I cross my heart and hope to die thy freedom
will be mine.
Sinking down in the ocean of severe emotions.
Grab a bottle to drink up the pain-relieving potion.
But after all, that got boring too, so no matter
what happens, I couldn't give a damn or too.
The portal has been past 'til the
point of no return. No more lines to cross,
no more bridges to burn.
Now when your blindly death-raying blade
swept my griefs and tears away. I'd never go back
to cross that line.
I cross my heart and hope to die.
Mask Of Sanity
I can't waste away, I'm slowly losing my way forever
Better raise your slave for me anymore
Daylight's sin inside, day's growing closer, wait for pain
I cannot wait another night to be alone
Voices are calling me, 'be my night!' this devil's sigh
Yeah, shadows are tainting me, yeah,
I know that only you can render pain
Peace of mind, you run away from me
So make me lose my mask of sanity
I can't waste away, I'm slowly getting my way forever
Better is what I used to feel alone
Shattered light's sin in taint, day's growing longer, wait for pain
I cannot wait another night to be with you
Peace of mind, you run away from me
So make me lose my mask of sanity
Peace of mind, you run away from me
So make me lose my mask of sanity
Are You Dead Yet
Don't hear, don't deem. Drown in before you dive.
Don't care, commit to your self destruction drive
I kiss the ground with love beyond forever
Flip off the sky with bleeding fingers till I die
Enemy, take a one good look at me.
Eradicate what you'll always be,
Your tainted flesh, polluted soul through a mirror I behold.
Throw a punch, shards bleed on the floor
Tearing me apart but I don't care anymore.
Should I regret or ask myself
Are You Dead Yet?
Wake up, don't cry. Regenerate to deny the truth,
The fiction you live in blindfold your eyes.
Disclosure, self loathing. This time you've gone too far.
Or could it be, my nemesis that you are me?
Enemy, take a one good look at me.
Eradicate what you'll always be
Your tainted flesh, polluted soul through a mirror I behold.
Throw a punch, shards bleed on the floor
Tearing me apart but I don't care anymore.
Should I regret or ask myself ARE YOU DEAD YET?
