Product Description
Product Description
2008 reissue of Something Wild, the debut album by the Finnish melodic death metal band Children of Bodom, released in 1997. The album presents a darker and generally more experimental sound than the one present in their later albums, and contributed most to the infamous genre controversy of their classification as a death metal or black metal band at the time. Children of Bodom have gone from being an amazing band from Finland to a household name worldwide in the metal scene. Their intensity, flawless execution and quality of material have put them on a pedestal that most bands is any genre can only dream of.

The one that started it all, probably one of my favourite albums to this date. It's Dimmu Borgir split up

This is an great cd by an awesome band. When I first heard CoB it was on this album and I was amazed. The musicianship is so good. If you're interested in anything by CoB I also suggest you try listening to other great bands like dimmu borgir, inflames and even cradle of filth. This band comprises excellent vocals, complicated guitar work and good use of the double bass pedal. I suggest that you get this album if you're interested in death metal, black metal, speed metal ,thrash metal or are just interested in a good change of music. IT ROCKS!
Format:Audio CD
This album is the most straight up death metal that was done by Children of Bodom. Thus it is the least meolodic of all of their albums. However this album is still a very good album with amazing instumentals. The talent is definately here but the more straight up death metal approach makes it seem more subdued and less attention grabbing as it is in Bodom's other albums. One of the failings of this album is its very short length, I beleive that it is about 28 minutes long. Buy the other Bodom albums before this and if you fall in love with their unique style of death metal then i urge you to purchase this, if you hate their style of playing becuase it is not metal enough then I also urge you to purchase this as it may be more in your alley.

Absolute must for any Metal collection
Children have captured something all their own. A sound which no other band has. Combing gutteral growls, shredding guitar, and a hammering rythym section, this cd is amazing. Read more
