More wild Children of Bodom covers
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. 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?. 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.

Metal at it's best.
com won't let me)!. Alexi does the best job of guitar solos with high distortion that I've ever heard! The song Lost, Trashed, and Strungout is my favorite, and the CD is definately a must for me, and any other COB fan! 5 stars (6 in my book but amazon.


Trashed, Lost and Strung Out
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. It has the COB feel to it but definately not one of their best.


Great CD
Trashed, Lost, and Strungout starts out with a killer guitar intro and then turns into a breackneck fast song. At first I was a little hesitant aout shelling out 8 bucks for a cd with only 4 songs on it, but lemme tell you these songs are great. Knuckleduster is my favorite song on here, it's just got everything a great song needs. Bed of Nails was an interesting choice for a cover but its good none the less, and finally we have She Is Beautiful by Andrew W. K. , this shows the more upbeat side of C. O. B. and they did the song great. The extra stuff is nothing great, the video for TLaSO is good and the 20 minute documentary of the band is very funny at parts (when Alexi sprays himself in the eye). All in all this is definately a must have for any C. O. B. fan but it's also a great starting place for someone who hasn't heard any of their other stuff.


i couldnt believe my ears!
although there where only 2 new songs, it was as good as a whole album. children of bodom have done it again.

trashed lost & strungout- shows off alexi laiho's amazing guitar skills. the solo was evident of laihos steve vai obscetion.

knuckleduster- another great song. drumming was very good. solo wasnt as good as the one in tlso, but it was still excellent. laihos voice rang like a church bell in this song.

bed of nails(alice cooper cover)- this cover was very good not as good as the original but cob's interpretation kept this classic alive.

she is beautiful(andrew wk cover)-in my opinion alexi laihos voice doesnt really fit the nature of this song. but it made it sound heavier. .
