They really are Speed metal smile
The vocals came about as a joke at one of their band practises...Alexi started singing like it & people liked it.
Also, I wouldn't say they're Death metal, as most of their songs aren't about "Death metal" subject matter.

Also, I wouldn't say they're Death metal, as most of their songs aren't about "Death metal" subject matter. Vocals and lyrics do NOT change a bands genre (for example Doomsword sing about Vikings but they are "Epic" Doom Metal not Viking Metal). And no they are not DM Their Vocals are the only DM influence they have which as I said above is not enough to change their genre.

Gravechild6 Digital Malevolence Vocals have nothing to with subgenres, just like theres death metal bands that sing with clean vocals. Every subgenre...except thrash has both clean and harsh vocals, thrash seems to always have some sort of harsh vocals in it for some reason. but anyways, vocals have nothing to do with the music the band plays, if vocals did have a part in that then what would you call instrumental bands? The way the songs are set up and the way the instruments are played is what defines subgenres, not the vocals. I wish I knew music theory, if I did then I could explain it better. There are plenty of thrash bands with clean vocals (Metal Church, Heathen, Over Kill, etc). oh yeah.....maybe it was harsh vocals then....nope...hmm, oh well, your right about that one.

Digital Malevolence Victum Soul Digital Malevolence Victum Soul Digital Malevolence CoB is too power. neutral it's not, pal. Where's the clean vocals? where's the epic factor? where's the liberating feeling? Thrash/speed metal I say. Power Metal doesnt need clean vocals. its a style of music not a style of vocals, the way the instuments are played not the way the person sings. neutral Power metal is meant to be sung with clean high-pitched vocals man... it's like saying you could play blackmetal with no harsh vocals. If that were true then Wintersun would be power metal too. The vocals are a very important and definitory element in subgenres. In fact the most repeated reason you get for liking power metal from fans is 'because i like to understand what the guy's singing'.Vocals have nothing to with subgenres, just like theres death metal bands that sing with clean vocals.

The way the songs are set up and the way the instruments are played is what defines subgenres, not the vocals. I wish I knew music theory, if I did then I could explain it better. I am certain of what I do,say and think. And about instrumental bands, they are defined by the instruments, cause the vocals are an ELEMENT, if the band lacks that element, then it can't be judged by that missing element. Like my own band, we play power metal (epic) but we don't have a keyboard. Maybe if we hada keyboard and a good keyer, we would sound more like symphonic, orchestral or even folk.

Saying CoB is power with harsh vocals is like saying lamb of god is death metal but with rock music instead of metal ,and hardcore vocals ...*crickets*

I thought Children of Bodom was Speed Metal. :/
Can't vocals be classified as an instrument as well (as stupid as it may sound).
