I got into a debate before with my friend. He's a massive Bodom fan and he's just started a Melo-Death band inspired by Bodom. So I told him that Bodom are Power Metal. So we had a nice argument about it. With some wonderful analogies... music as a library :D. Sadly I didn't convert him to truthful view.
Bodom aren't really power metal because they don't sing about dragons or magical swords and they keep the homoerotica and phony violence antics to a very bare minimum.
