What is Kalmah?
1.
A Finnish death metal band that kicks everyone's asses, especially Children of Bodom. Kalmah did not copy/steal music from Children of Bodom, Kalmah has actually been jamming together much longer than Children of Bodom even got a contract. Even though Children of Bodom got the record deal first, Kalmah (known as Ancestor at the time) has had many demo tapes that were recorded before Children of Bodom started producing their own albums.
Nerd: Dude Kalmah copied Children Of Bodom!!!!
Me: You know what else Kalmah copied, they copied YOUR MOM.
