IneartheD (Children of Bodom)-Talking of The Trees

[anathoros]

nice to hear this again

[BodomChildBreeder]

those VOCALS..... *shudder*

[musikaxtrema]

What a fucking masterpiece dude.

[tails696]

Does anyone know where to go to to get the demos? i cant seem to find a place to download or buy them anywhere and id love to get them.

[musikaxtrema]

best bodom song ever

[94WildchildBHC]

I can see they reused alot of this stuff for Mask of Sanity. Sick song btw.

[FinnishMisanthrope]

What people don't realize is that talent really is not the key matter. The real key matter is the atmosphere. The problem is that when a band like this with atmosphere wants more and more popular, they start to try to show all the talent they can in their songs by "cool" riffs and such, and it just kills the atmosphere.

[rsman169]

@FinnishMisanthrope Interesting theory. I can agree in a way.

[ccsquele]

@FinnishMisanthrope Then there is some people that like it technicly with "cool" riffs and stuff... just sayin, I like it technical too, but this is so unique. And don't think that CoB is another mainstream band that's only out for fame and money. Every song Children Of Bodom made is a masterpiece in one way or another.

Children od Bodom is awesome, you know what i'm sayin' ? <3

[FinnishMisanthrope]

@ccsquele Well, aren't you a true black metaller there, having Dead in your profile photo and all. You should know that black metal is all about the atmosphere and no fucking technical garbage. Children of Bodom is disgrace to finnish music (in my opinion), but this inearthed stuff sounds okay. I mean it has the atmosphere and quality that I prefer. And don't start to argue with me about this, I know how I like my music and I don't care how you or someone else likes it.

[DeadnightDemon]

@FinnishMisanthrope agreed, its pretty much never playing the hardest most difficult thing in the world that makes you popular, usually it's whatever's catchy to peoples' ears, but at the same time you dont wanna just play basic chords and notes or simple drum beats, etc etc, show off the skills you have xD

[musikaxtrema]

@FinnishMisanthrope Totally agree dude

[tails696]

To think. Alexi was only 15 when he recorded this.

[rsman169]

@tails696 17. 15 in the first demo.

[Mzee1084]

Pity the vocals went down the toilet. Inearthed is much better than Bodom in my opinion.

[str8Grizzlay]

mask of sanity 3:04 - 3:45

[opethinchains]

@str8Grizzlay i noticed. lol, i just scrolled down the comments to see if anyone else had.

[WildSlyFox]

It's a shame it wasn't put on Something Wild ;( It's so awesome song!

[eproxymous]

This song  should have been in Something Wild a lot better than those songs in that album... two thumbs up

[LiMiTaTiOn7]

it's great! the intro reminds me of iron maiden *LOL* :D

[Fortenhell]

I wish, there would exist just ONE Band, making music like they did...like inearthed did.

[PeazyG420]

Bodom come back to me :'(

[Adri0031]

this isnt childern of bodom i can prove it to all of you!!!!!!!!

[ESA1996]

@Adri0031 Yeah, it's Children Of Bodom with a different name.

[shreddintheaxe]

i don't think were ever gonna hear another record like hatebreeder again lol

[roadrunnerhell]

OMG 3:31 is so fuckin wierd and random!!! I like it :D

[razorscytheshredder]

thats a piece of art, and the shitty recording quality makes it unique, keyboards make a sad mood, black metal voice of alexi is much better than the trashy voices he makes in the later albums, jaska goes more technical and shows off his full talent as a teenager, and fucking good solos for an alexi teenager xD

JUST ADORE THIS ALBUM ! ! !

[brulando]

WHERE CAN WE FIND A VERSION OF THIS SONG IN BETTER QUALITY???...AAAARGH!

[rsman169]

@brulando There is no such thing unless someone remasters it.

[brulando]

SOMEDAY

[Spongebob5478]

@rsman169 Just look in his squarepants. He's got best quality songs that aren't available anywhere else but under the sea. But beware of the flying dutchman. I hear he wants them too.

[Spongebob5478]

@brulando You can always find them under the sea. Spongebob always has spare copies of better quality songs

[AlexiESP414]

If anyone wants to know how to play this i made a how to video for it ;) lol

[bernie6127]

Nice! Was there still keyboards in this stage? I can't really tell.

[Murkyftw]

@bernie6127 Yeah there was. You can hear them at about 00:58. Like a little piano bit in the background. They used a lot of synth strings and choir ahs, too.

[mak666fuck]

how can a band do an awesome work in inearthed and then in cob after hatebreeder do that shit

[Desacrafire]

Great Song! Alexi was musical genius even back in these days!

[170696janne]

3:04 mask of sanity : D

[backsideheelflip1]

does anyone esle expect him to sing ooohoohoh dark voices calling me! be my knight, the devil's sigh! at 2:28?

[HerBloodyDescent]

am i the only one to have noticed that drumwise, they were must more technical and interesting before bodom?! whoa... you can tell how young Laiho is here...

[rsman169]

@HerBloodyDescent I have stated that plenty of times actually. So no, you are not the only one. Jaska was indeed more creative and technical in the old days, now it's so bad I can predict every drumbeat. I want more blastbeats, nothing makes me headbang more than a good blastbeat!

[PeterGratrex]

@rsman169 Blast beats are so overdone both in this song and in general.

[Todesengerl]

@HerBloodyDescent he was 16 :D

[IZQDAA]

That's so fucking awesome ! \,,/ =)

[Tuominen98]

FUCKING AMAZING!

[Anze491992]

I agree with other people! This song must be re-recorded! If not by COB then I will make cover of it someday :)

[RyanDahlReturns]

This song is one of the best songs ever I can't believe how talented they were before Bodom

[mrshreddy]

Somebody do a cover of this, I mean a REAL cover not just a guitar cover, and i will donate both my testicles and my lungs to you.

[impavitus]

@mrshreddy no one wants your testicles

[mrshreddy]

@impavitus

They seemed to catch your attention quite well

[ChromeTombz]

im a guitarists man .... but dude!!! fuck !!!!! the bass lines are like .... FURRRYOOOOO!!!!!!sounds simple yet technical... but it is technical.....every instruments come to life

[guitardude901]

bodom need to sound like thats again...

[Alexi3laiho]

So fucking talented youngsters! there is no much people who could do music like this like 17-18 years old!

[gigabiite]

2:45 - 3:15 EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!

[darkstar913]

Alexi's vocals were sooo damn good, but now there's very little death metal taste to it...still love COB. Hate Crew for life !!! Hail metal...

[PanamaSabroso]

YEAAAAAAAA

THE TALKING OF THE TREES.

[heska100]

this is real masterpiece, but new bodom 2005-2010, sucks so gay shit :DD

[Quitarr]

@heska100 your mum sucks better ;)

[mariekjje]

fuck the 2 people that dislike this video!!! probably cob fans that only like 'are you dead yet' and 'blooddrunk'

[laionet]

talking of the trees!! the reaper is a tree!!

good song

[deanpaularnold]

can someone PLEASE tell me whose doin the clean vocals at 3:28?

[christiandil10]

@deanpaularnold it's a girl's voice..

[deanpaularnold]

@christiandil10 i know that, i'm just wondering who. check out my channel for covers! more bodom songs to be done!

[rsman169]

@deanpaularnold Nina Keitel. She's not famous so don't bother looking.

[bodomindeathrider505]

why cant people jus listen 2 da music n not b faggot ass critics fucking COBHC 4 life bitches!!!!!!!

[rsman169]

@bodomindeathrider505 There are reasons why we can't just listen and not be faggot ass critics. The new shit isn't half as good as this, and we don't like it. We have our reasons to bitch about it.

[WenchesandMead]

@rsman169 You have your opinions dick, and I doubt Alexi gives a fuck what you think. I agree, I think the older stuff is better too, but most people prefer the new stuff, and they will say the opposite to us, but they aren't wrong to think that.

[rsman169]

@WenchesandMead Judging by the thumbs up I got, I think most people prefer the old stuff. Why are you getting so hostile, did I offend you emo?

[WenchesandMead]

@rsman169 Like I say I prefer the old stuff too, I'm saying just becuase you and I prefer the old stuff doesn't mean the new stuff is shit. Going by the record sales, I think there is a better argument to say that the new stuff is better... All i'm saying is just becuase YOU don't like something, doesn't mean that it's shit. Also what is with the 'emo'?

[rsman169]

@WenchesandMead The record sales are great because the band is more well known these days. I'm sure if they still played their old style today, it would sell well too. I don't really care much about bodom anymore anyways, there are better bands out there.

[WenchesandMead]

@rsman169 Well I would want nothing more than them to go back to the old style, but doubt that will happen mate.

[mastr323]

@bodomindeathrider505 so long as there are youtube comments, there will be youtube critics. every fucking page on this site is like this :)

[igotwoodhaha]

@bodomindeathrider505 because every demo song from Shining completely wipes the floor with "are you dead yet".

[bodomnite3]

god this is fuckin amazing lol, really it is. \m/

[DarkLordNagash]

Wow, a CLEAN guitar sound ! never seen Alexi playing without distortion ever before ^^

[igotwoodhaha]

@DarkLordNagash listen to In The Shadows off their album Something Wild. It has a clean guitar rhythm behind Alexi doing his old BM-ish vocals. Pretty badass.

[DarkLordNagash]

@igotwoodhaha HAHA I had forgotten this one ^^.

[metalbeethoven]

Best band i ever knew! Such a masterpiece... Alexi was only 16 just like me now!!! EPIC

[wick3dr3ign]

Dude how did you change the quality of this song? The torrent I got this off of doesn't sound anything like this. Did you use a converter or what?

[infernalmetaller]

sounds like norther dont you think?

[igotwoodhaha]

CoB should do their next album as "Inearthed" and have all of their Inearthed songs on that album remastered and using the Old hatebreeder-ish vocal style. That would be soooo legit. Thump up this comment if you agree.

[BringerOfTruth123]

@igotwoodhaha I couldn't agree anymore. That would be my dream come true. If I could, I would give them a million dollars to do that. Today is the first time I've ever heard inearthed material. And I love it all so much. It's similar to something wild.

[kisJaksi]

@igotwoodhaha Quote from the official CoB website according to the new album they're working on:

"[...]Soon we will jam some old songs too[...]"

So let's hope they mean demo songs under old songs. :)

[bobtheatog]

@igotwoodhaha Dude, you have no idea how happy us REAL bodom fans would be. I hate people who think they're a bodom fan when then can name like are you dead yet or blooddrunk... Just pisses me off. Rip Bodom (Inearthed - 1997 - 2001)

[mrrectumgrinder]

@igotwoodhaha NOU

[superalexanderimjihy]

@igotwoodhaha i`d prefer the something wild vocal style, but a remastered sound as you said sounds great dude

[pbmdh]

@igotwoodhaha

Too bad Alexi could never reproduce the vocals he had here, or in Hatebreeder, or even FTR. Years of smoking does bad things to the voicebox.

[shreddintheaxe]

@pbmdh agreed that smoking and drinking fucked up his voicebox, but his vocals in something wild, hatebreeder, and follow the reaper was amazing

[1231robi]

if somebody is gonna go to COB concert go to the first row and tell alexi to play this instead of blooddrunk or some shit like that

[guitarcrocodile]

does anyone have the lyrics for this?

[Mantleburner]

@ all who have criticized my last comment. i was joking, this song is kick ass. i just wanted to stir the hive and see what would happen if i said something like that and i've had my laugh =)

[Mantleburner]

@Mantleburner w00t

[Apollyonification]

@Mantleburner

no im pretty sure you represent the devil. Actually no i take that back, not even Satan would want a fucktard like you to represent him.......thats all im saying

[PanamaSabroso]

This was when Alexi was Mr.BLACK FUCKING METAL. His vocals sound amazing. Not how he just screams now adays.

[gumborama]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[1231robi]

@Mantleburner wtf is wrong with you.....if this is evil what is a song named god is dead by vader?

[GNRslash28]

no Mantleburner. you are incorrect

[NakeRtHeRoCkEr]

i heared something like a solo that sounds like the one from nothing else matters by metallica ... wtf?

[1231robi]

what's that melody on 0:33 it reminds me on some cob song but not mask of sanity like in the ending..........please if anybody finds out what's the songs name post a comment......

[COB273]

the song's feeling is undiscribeable.

nevertheless Bodom's newer stuff is pretty good but it' differ from their older stuff.

And it's good ,when a band change their sound and feeling of songson every album but u should always recognize them.

BODOM RULES 4 EVER ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[Metalking312]

it would realy nice, if this song would be remasterd from children of bodom.

[lovethedayhatethehr]

yeah, ill probably get raped for saying this, but I do not see such a problem with blooddrunk, they took it back quite a bit after wandering off toward AYDY.

Meanwhile, talking of the trees is one of my favorite tunes of all times, I have been painstakingly working on lyrics, but you can only get so far with these old recordings.....and by the way the lyrics posted much earlier a very wrong

[newmetalrealm]

and I just realized i was signed in under my wifes call tag, so that was me posting

[80smetalchild]

also i think they should realease a demo of inearthed just retitled for bodom. cuz they're new stuffs really suckin and they need shit like this again

[80smetalchild]

that'd be sick as fuck if they pulled out one of these tunes and played it live

[fredvain]

what would probely never happen xD

but it would be fun if in their last gig they played this song as a ending one^^

[Jordanm5150]

shit did these guys make any cds??

[desse56]

They´re now known as Children of Bodom.....

[Jordanm5150]

I know, but like this old shit here..

[desse56]

Yeah....but what i ment was that they did cd´s, but with that name...

[wizardsdestroyedthem]

Shit! What's that riff/melody that starts at about 3:20something that they reuse on Hatebreeder? What song is that? I can't remember!

[rsman169]

@wizardsdestroyedthem It's on Follow The Reaper, and the song is Mask of Sanity.

[alanleiker2]

I wish Children of Bodom would remake this song and release it.

[closeco]

an Inearthed cover by the same band

[80smetalchild]

@alanleiker2

hah i guess they sorta did with mask of sanity. well parts of it atleast

[WinterMadness777]

yeaH!!

[supapuffy2007]

this is a great song

[J13wwe]

This is fucking cool! Alexi sounds alot more black metal in the old days, since black metal is his roots.

[megadethfans96]

and alot of thrash vocals

[thekatatonia22]

wooow fuck the only have 18 or 17 years :O

[darkdrageon]

Oh my fucking god!!!! Female Voice with Alexi :o:o:o

[CrunchyNutKBar]

2:24 reminds me of a bit in Mask Of Sanity

[rsman169]

That's because Mask of Sanity's riff was used after this :D

[dohdaviddoh]

@CrunchyNutKBar

only a bit?

xD

is the same =D

[CrunchyNutKBar]

XD true

[ax101494]

cool

[NotGood1024]

I fucking hate Bodom. But this is somehow far better now that the synth isn't wanking around, the vocals fit the recording quality, and the guitar is leading rather than the synth. I approve. Name needs work though.

[robbydamusicman]

wats wrong with talking of the trees?

[NotGood1024]

didn't know what it meant.

[robbydamusicman]

lol true :P

[Metallicazack]

What in fuck's name is wrong with you? If you dislike Bodom then why do you think bashing them would be tolerated in the comments of a video of their early incarnation? If you don't like Bodom then listen to something else. Simple as that. I'm glad you enjoyed this, but 99.9999% of people here are Bodom fans, so speaking ill of them is just going to piss people off.

[NotGood1024]

Some people just don't like being told that something they like sucks.

Oh the pleasures of trolling

[youbodom]

children of bodom my fave band!!

[IMetaller666I]

Children of Bodom/Inearthed are the best of the world!!!

[hardcoripe]

They should play this song again, in fucking hi quality... for us to love them a little more, after all they have done to us.

[rsman169]

@hardcoripe I don't know if Jaska is on the same level he was here when it comes to drums. Honestly, he sounded alot more talented at 17 years old. Now he plays nothing but intermediate beats, without a trace of any complexity. The older stuff was alot different, and way more technical. Plus Bodom doesn't like this music style anymore, cause it doesn't make them money.

[hardcoripe]

@rsman169 sad but true.

[Mantleburner]

@rsman169 whoa

[dryhandskin]

@rsman169 i don't know if its really jaska who is not on the same level. I think they are all as god as they were before its juste that like you said they don't like the older stuff anymore and it doen't make money. So all the band plays intermediate beats and jaska is fust going along with it. but since they are still able to play the older stuff in shows it means they are still as good as before

[Quitarr]

@rsman169 Bodom aint doing music just for the money asshole

[bleachpudding]

@Quitarr go die

[moozax]

@rsman169 "Plus Bodom doesn't like this music style anymore, cause it doesn't make them money." Or maybe Bodom has developed as a band and Alexi doesn't want to do this sort of music anymore? Why do you add money immediatly to the equation?

[wannabeserpento99]

@rsman169 always theese bitches whining about all bands "selling out" . youknow how boring cob would be if their all albums would be like something wild...

[rsman169]

@wannabeserpento99 No, they wouldn't all be like Something Wild. The first 3 albums were all really different, unique, and amazing in their own way. Everything after that just seemed.. blah. Only my opinion though, it doesn't matter.

[WarmaW]

@rsman169 true.. true.. i can play all of bodom's newer songs on drums, some stuff from Something Wild and Hatebreeder, however, i cannot :b

but i still can play some of them like Black Widow, Silent Night Bodom Night, the Red Light in my Eyes pt 1&2, etc

[rsman169]

@WarmaW Yeah I'm a drummer too ;p Anyone with the slightest bit of knowledge about drumming would know this is by far more complicated than the newer stuff.

[WarmaW]

@rsman169 Yeah, i think it's funny how much easier the drum work got xD

[teargas501]

I love this song. Imo, it surpasses almost everything Children of Bodom has ever played.

[MetalFactory5000]

i have just read that talking of the trees was suppoused to be on album something wild but they changed mind

so shame:(

[tart9]

3:10 every time i die

[rsman169]

Correction, "Mask of Sanity"

[guitarwailer7]

dude awesome.

[Sigurdkinman]

this is pretty awesome!

[akahanakurohitsugi]

I love Inearthed' songs !

So great !

It reminds me the "First" COB, and the "old" Alexi.

Such a shame they didn't keep on playing on this band...

But COB is my favorite band, with Sinergy :)

[obeyyourpain]

they had to break up the band and reform to make Bodom

[fredvain]

They teqnichally didn't break up, they pretended to break up so their label would belive that. but they couldn't be called inearthed anymore cause that would be found out by the former label so they chanced name xD

[dylanK723]

hey man where did you find this at?

i love everything about old Bodom stuff haha

its so perfectly melodic

[rsman169]

You can find the demo's in torrents surely.. I compressed this one in a better quality format, so it sounds much better then the orginal file.

[Limppumias]

how did you compres them? with audacity? I downloaded all the demos and quality really sucks in some songs.

[happilemon]

Love this song..anyone know who does the soft vocals at 3.26 after the MoS medley??

[rsman169]

Nina Keitel, she isn't famous and would be very hard to find..

Figured I'd answer anyways

[happilemon]

Oh right, thanks :)

[BigDawgWC77]

yea. generic no fun cuz everybody does it.
