Really? Wow...I tried it and the intro solo was the hardest part for me. Other than that it's one of their easier songs.



I love all of those songs anyway.

The way I play it is,



I do the 12---15s as tap solo esqe hammer-on kinda things,



Then just play it really slow until you get it up to speed. Then practice it fast.



The part aftet that is what's kinda hard.

That makes a little bit of work but I got it fairly quick.



I tried "Sixpounder" and I couldn't get the rymthm in it.



Which of their songs are easy? Not that any really are.

None except Bed of Razors. Nothing in that song is hard. Sixpounder is also one of their easiest once you get the rhythm down.

If you ask me, Living Dead Beat is the strongest song on the album. The song is flawless and is one of Bodom's best songs ever.

Tru dat my friend. I didn't love it at first sight like everyone else seemed to, but now I find it incredible.

i love the first riff after the intro and before the verse of "next in line," but the whole album is amazing, even "punch me i bleed" which i hated to start with.

Wow, I feel like such a dick now. I listened to this album a few times over again, an dI really love it now. It just takes time getting used to, I guess. ShadowsFallen, you were right.

Damn straight Thor! I think this album does take some getting used to. The sudden change in sound may be off-putting at first, but once you're used to it you'll realize how good it is. I

I agree. This certainly takes some time getting used to. When I first heard it I was like "Wtf?! This isn't Hatebreeder!" and just cast it off. Now that I'm more open to it, I love it.



Now that I'm as big of a fan as you are, I feel much better. We're Not Gonna Fall is pure magic. That song is so addicting that it's almost scary.

Indeed! You should hear it live. It was incredible to hear.



I thought the same thing as everyone else at first, but not at this. When I first heard Knuckleduster on the TLS EP, I was scared to death. But once I got used to it, I was fine. I couldn't believe so many people were surprised by the route they took here after hearing that song.

I'm still not a big fan of Knuckleduster, but I do like the fact that the band was trying something new.

Knuckleduster is probably the worst song they've ever done, although the solos are insane. The title track from that EP was ungodly good though.

Agreed. I'm glad that they put it on AYDY because it just makes it that much better.

Is it just me or does the intro to Are you dead yet? sound like Metallica's Blackened??

I think this album's name is silly.

I think their lyrics and album covers are pretty ridiculous as well.

supra_speed, it sort of does. Except that Are You Dead Yet? is in C and Blackened is in E. But I can see the resemblance.

I don't know what Blackened sounds like. Metallica doesn't do much for me anymore.



But I do
