children of bodom

I've never been the biggest fan, but they are good party music or when I'm in the mood for something of this sort. Surely, they are NOT a death metal band. That's a huge misconception when it comes to their sound, and infact they are not melodic death either. They are essentially a power metal band with sub-par black metal vocals. Alexi Laiho is a good guitarist though, but the best record he ever played on wasn't a Children Of Bodom record, but an Impaled Nazarene record. ;)

The guitar is tasty, though I personally think the band could be 100% better with the addition of a good vocalist and toning the keyboard down.
Nonetheless, I adore them.

Why? Then they would be like every other mediocre power metal band.

I don't necessarily mean a power metal vocalist...Laiho could be the amazing guitarist for the next <insert subgenre here> metal band.

I don't know what other type of vocalist would work in a band like Children Of Bodom. I think their vocals fit the music quite well, and I think if they did have a vocalist who sang differently, they wouldn't have enjoyed half of the success they have enjoyed thus far.
