Album Review: Children Of Bodom - I Worship Chaos

With I Worship Chaos, Finnish melodic death metallers Children Of Bodom merge their dark power riffs with a more intense production element and a slightly less technical approach resulting in a collection of tracks that is best described as 'catchy'.

While Bodom have never had issues with writing a solid staying track, the slight tone down of mind-melting solos and ridiculously intense drum patterns gives I Worship Chaos a more creative and cohesive sound that rounds out the band's songwriting development while still delivering a brutally powerful sound.

If you're after instrumentation that will cause a minimum of three broken fingers at first attempt to emulate, it's still here; it just sounds a whole lot fresher.
