Customer Reviews
Great EP...
Children Of Bodom releases their new brand EP "Trashed, Lost & Strungout", with two new COB songs, the usual covers, two in this case, and a video.
The two COB songs somehow continue with what was left in "Hatecrew dethroll", COB's previous effort. Both very powerful and catchy, in which you can notice that Alexi Laiho tried to take his songwriting one level higher.
The two covers, Bed of Nails, and She is Beautiful. Two great covers, that capture the vibe of the original versions, especially "She is beautiful", that is probably one of best covers ever recorded by COB, very festive and funny, and showing the band's sense of humour.
Anyway, if you're a Bodom fan, you should buy this EP!
More wild Children of Bodom covers
Trashed, Lost and Strung Out is a neat little EP that served to whet fans' appetites for Children of Bodom's 2005 album Are You Dead Yet?. In addition to the title track, which was the first single from the album (something about thinking of any COB song as a single in the US strikes me funny), there is the exclusive studio track Knuckleduster. Both songs are representative of the Are You Dead Yet album, which is to say they both rock like the proverbial hurricane.
What's exclusive to this EP, and what makes it worthwhile long after the full album was released, is the presence of two cover songs. The first cover is of the Alice Cooper song Bed of Nails. The second is of Andrew W.K.'s She is Beautiful. These oddball covers help illustrate why Children of Bodom is so often imitated, but is never really duplicated. They can cover two very different songs from two very different eras, neither of which is really a metal song, and give them that signature COB style. Plus, their obvious appreciation for a wide array of music has helped them to essentially create a whole new style of extreme metal.
The EP also includes the video for the title track as well as some other multimedia content. Given the low price, this EP is a good purchase for all serious Children of Bodom fans.
Trashed, Lost and Strung Out
It has the COB feel to it but definately not one of their best. The video clip of them wandering around drunk is pretty amuzing though especially if you've had a few yourself :) Overall if you're a true Children of Bodom fan you might be slightly disappointed although they still have talent.
