5.0 out of 5 stars Heavy Neoclassical, August 27, 2008

By	D. Blanton "Renegade Dave" (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Hatebreeder has cemented itself in my top 5 favorite albums largely because of the ultra melodic styling of the leads played by Laiho. The music comes across as heavy and aggressive but there are great melodies over top from the guitar and the keys. The cover of Aces High is a pretty great "blackened" version of the Maiden favorite. This album represents a style that has started disappearing in more recent Bodom work which still features shred but doesn't have as many complex melodies as this album does. You can find a lot of melodies that are reminiscent of melodies you might find in concert/"classical" music. No Bodom fan should be without it, any guitar fan should at least listen to it. Memorable tracks include "Silent Night, Bodom Night", "Toward Dead End" (renamed on this re-release "Cowards Dead End"), and "Downfall". Of course if you're one of those that can't get past the screaming, then you're not going to like it anyway. I encourage you to at least give it a shot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great music, December 3, 2008

A Kid's Review

it has great guitar. i really cant beleive how Laiho can scream that much but it works out great. favorite songs on this cd are probably Black widow, Downfall, Silent night Bodom night, and Hatebreeder. this is a great cd. but if you dont like screaming...this is definately not for you. but if you like screaming, speed metal or anything like that you should listen to it. overall it is a very good metal cd. (if you like this also look at Hate Crew Deathroll. thats another great cd by Children of Bodom which includes Needled 24/7.)

3.0 out of 5 stars eh...it's alright, May 1, 2009

By	Scott Marlow (Springfield, IL.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First off, the guitar work is stellar, the drums are heavy and occassionally you hear some great bass work, but the vocals, god, they ended up driving me up a wall! It reminded me of a chained up pit bull. And that wouldn't be so bad, except nearly every song is like that!

It is good symphonic power metal, no doubt; like Dragonforce with a metalcore singer, but the vocals get annoying fast, I wish they would drop the vocals and be instrumental. Did I mention the vocals get annoying fast?
