Well, I think Metallica might have been one of COB's inspirations. I personally like Metallica better. Kirk and Alexi are both really great guitarists, but in each of the bands' guitarists case, I think Alexi wins!
i dont see how you can compare these 2 bands, theyre so far from each other in the world of metal. COB is so much more heavy, fast and melodic, Metallica is very catchy and has some great riffs and lyrics but like Alexi Laiho is one of the greatest guitarists ever. Anyone who plays guitar at a high level knows that Alexi's playing style is much more difficult to replicate than Kirk's. Kirk is extremely repetitive in his solos, it seems like he hardly gets away from pentatonic shredding.
COB too but Metallica has marked a imprent in the metal history.
Chorus:Metallica,Alexi's voice is horrible.
Solo:Why did you put the solo of And Justice For All???That isn't the best solo by far....I know solos of Kirk who are soooo better,I'll tell Kirk is as good as Alexi but here,Alexi kicks ass.
Intros:I'm sorry but the Ride The Lighting intro is one of they best.Why didn't you put the Bodom Beach Terror intro?She is sooo better.
YOU CANT FUCKING COMPARE THE TWO!!!!FUCK MAN...METALLICA IS THRASH AND COB IS MELODETH...I MEAN YEA...ALEXI IS A BETTER GUITARIST THAN KIRK AS FAR AS SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE GOES...BUT ALEXI WAS CLASSICALLY TRAINED...HE KNOWS THINGS HAMMETT NEVER THOUGH OF...BOTH BANDS ARE BEST IN THEIR GENRE...SO FUCK YOU FOR TRYING TO COMPARE THEM LIKE THAT...
Metallica is Thrash Metal, COB is Melodic Death Metal, Kirk and Alexi Play in differents escales and they have different style, Alexi's voice is not so good, James has an amazing Voice, its just stupid, you cant compare themBoth band are fucking awesome but this video is shit, seriously, both bands have very different style, and dont forget, Metallica create the Motherfucker Thrash Metal, they are Gods, COB is a fucking awesome band and is unique
Metallica are better, but don't get me wrong, i fucking love both of these bands!!! Just that the point goes to metallica since they are more experienced and have been around alot longer
I think you can't compare these two bands because they don't play the same metal style.Alexi win I think but don't forget half of Children Of Bodom's solos are keyboard and Metallica don't have keyboard....
FUCK YOU ALL WHO THINK COB IS BETTER! Cob doesn't even sing, they scream all over the song and they are gay's and EMO's. Metallica is metal gods cob are metal band, you can't compare god's with stupid emo-gay people.
@Timi116 what exactly makes cob emo you ignorant idiot hahaha? because there's screaming in their music? it's a fuckin metal band, what did you expect, michael bolton? by the way are you familiar with kill'em all, there's screaming in there, or is that gay too in your opinion
I love Metallica and Children of bodom, but I have to tell that Kirk never be that good like Alexi...but also it´s true that they plays cempletly different styles of metal music, both bands are the best of music...
Alexi Laiho is a pro ;) ,but the people who say metallica suck are really stupid and know nothing about the music, wake up now! any metal bands learn old bands like Metallica or other .. And it's true, most children of bodom songs are inspired by Mozart or Vivaldi .. a little respect for the old =)
I dont fucking care of who is the best at guitar or other things and at the end i like them boot they boot are in first place in my favorite band top.
im listening metal for the feeling that its give to me and not for who is the best guitarist. COB FUCKING ROCK! METALLICA FUCKING ROCK! SLAYER FUCKING ROCK! ALL THESE BAND WHO SOUND GOOD ROCK!
THATS ALL \M/ for the win, for the life, for have fun, FOR ALL THE GREAT SONGS AND NOT FOR WHO PLAY THE HARDEST THINGS !!!!!!!!!!
really guys? your going to argue between two completely different bands??? one is Thrash(or at least was before the black album) and the other is symphonic Black(ish) metal, it is completely reliant on your musical taste it is not a matter of which is better(or more popular because metallica is of course more popular) but persanally i do like COB more but only because they didnt turn into shit like metallica did
hey come on guyzzzzz. we cant reely choose between the kings of metal. nd moreover both of tem r of different types. in COB janne nd alexi produce some gr8 melodic solos nd in metallica kirk prduces a metalic solo whereas james fills in wit some slow melody. BOTH OF THEM ROCK. IN MY OPINION,THEY SHUD JOIN HANDS TOGETHER.!!!!!!!!!
Metallica has great riffs and lyrics and their four first albums are the best. But Alexi is a better guitarist than Kirk. Still just because they have a better guitarist doesnt make them better
how can you compare two of the graetest bands in metal? metallica is one of the "Big Four" and thrash is my fav type of metal so i say METALLICA!! but still Bodom Kicks major fuckin ass and i cant ignore there greatness. thats almost blasphemey.
listen all u little boys, METALLICA wins hands down, they are metal gods, way more known then children of the bodom, i mean yea sure COB are ok, but nothing compaired to metallica... METALLICA RULEZ!!
its 2 different kinds of metal..... there is no compairing them, cob is melodic death metal and metallica is power metal.......... im just throwing this out there but alexi laiho is in rock house which is 15 of the best guitarists in the world and he is 7th, but it doesnt really matter who is better
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
metallica is one of the bands that started speed metal, without them, there would be no "Faggots of Bodom". COB in my opinion is a cheap knowoff of metal along with all the other new metalcore bands that just use harmonies in solos, and blast beats. metallica has been around for what? about 28 years and they have produced icons in metal history. so i think comparing the two is like comparing america to iraq: one is amazing, the other one sucks ass. so metallica wins.
u do know that there were bands making speed metal before metallica right? metallica was just one that became more popluar, exodus started in 1980, BEFORE METALLICA, and overkill started in 1980, BEFORE METALLICA, metallica started in 1981, so they didn't create is they were just pioneers of speed and thrash, know yur history fanboy, and btw I'd like to see james or kirk do some sweep picking, and lars do double bass.
I would say COB is better, because its my favorite bans and I'm not really a Metallica fan..But as GuitarDragon said, they are from 2 different genres, and Metallica in some way had to influence COB. Maybe if you make a comparison between COB's and Metallica's latest albums... well that's another thing, but still different genres...
well in a few years its possible children of bodom maybe pointed out as a revolutionary band...lol and their fast music definitely doesn't sound like shit...give bodom a hear before calling them shit man...
I don´t like Metallica so COB wins.
