RIP ALEKSI LAIHO 💔 we will miss you eternally
Love that he doesn't shy away from Poison, Mötley and bands...
17:04 Those ESP guitars have gone so hi tech that they installed a speed limit on them just like in modern sports cars.
Kleem Erkman 😂😂😭😭🤣🤣 OMG when did I miss this comment!ROFL!!
i'm not really a fan of bodom but watching him take the time and jam with these kids was pretty cool of him.
These kids r so lucky to jam with alexhi
Very cool of him to play along. You can tell he is a bit out of his element. If any of you are musicians and you play amazing at home and going to guitar center makes you sound like a noob. Its about mentally being there. He is more comfortable on stage, in pro studios, at home than in a very crowded room full of terrible tone and mediocre players. Believe it or not band chemistry is very real.
Very true... I find this very interesting... You can play the song perfectly when everyone knows it, but if you feel like someone isn't up for it you tend to listen more to what's happening and maybe focus more on just getting everyone through the song and not pay that much attention to your own playing... This happens to me all the time when practicing new material with the whole band... I think he should have listened to the drummer because he was up for it,... And that bass player kid... Give him a god damn compressor pedal, his dynamics were all over the place.. 😅
aand we learn years later he was on pills..so, you can easily see it on him here with the super pale skin n all. crazy. opiates will make you play exactly as he is here
@@TheSadistNat1on Yep you can clearly see it in his eyes
@@visionsvetarn yap. i've from portland oregon..i've been around opiates since middle school, like realllllly aruound them. Alexi was the man
13:58 He really nailed the "grumpy old janitor" -look. Haha
Awesome episode! Keep these coming!
12:35 That's what it's all about. Love these guys haha
Aleksi Markku Uula Laiho is a genius....Legend 😓
2 legends in 1 interview
i loved this one!
cheers from germany!!!
Great for those kids to have an opportunity to jam with their idol! Ok, the solo went badly but I understand that. I can't play any fast stuff if I haven't warmed up.
Epic......I'd love to be able to go there
that jam was fawking awesome
What a cool experience for those kids. Alexi's tone has really taken a shit since HCDR in their live performances.
True. One of the last few times after HCDR i remember he played well, was during their Chaos Ridden Years: Live at Stockholm DVD. I did enjoy the DVD, but would have enjoyed it more if the gain from the guitars wasn't so much in the production mix. I would have toned it down just a tiny bit.
@@bassmanplays7285 true
lol I can tell they're mostly talking/singing about Alexi's intro solo in Downfall (maybe some of Roope's parts also)12:32-12:50
Great stuff!
Alexi's Seinfeld shirt is absolutely classic. RIP>
It seems like he's playing with too much tension, it can be heard during the sweeping part.
Humble and simple 🤘
Alexi was suffering for so many years man...even here his skills and energy and voice is declining
Well, I saw ALL of those 80’s hair metal bands in
Finland in the 80’s although I was just about 10
years old...✌️
awesome
@16:57 and not a single note was played that day.....
+JayJapanB ahahahah omg i'm dying
+JayJapanB WTF, was the lamest solo ever !
+Pablo Navarro He created the solo, far enough respect for him. It is none of our concern if he wasn't in the mood of playing nor if he hadn't warmed up before playing nor if he hadn't practiced his own song in a long time.
Props to that dude for answering the kids questions and playing with them. An authentic guy for me, and I'm not even in that genre of metal.
but u cant be missing that bad if u r a pro imo, i dont see other players playing that bad, thats why u a r a pro in the first place, just do ur job or u end up like Lars Ulrich (shitty drummer cos he doesnt practice)
Your definition of "pro" might be (definitely is) different than the one from another person. For me, being a "pro" is nothing more than an adjective that other people will call on you if they are amazed for your skills on a certain practice, such as playing an instrument or an sport and so. You are the one that choosed on the first place to play the instrument, you're not responsible for other people enjoying what you do and calling you great at doing it, it sounds even dumb explaining it, it's just as incoherent as asking somebody how can she/he be attracted to somebody!
Adjectives shouldn't define the way you permanently must behave, we are humans, not machines (at least that's what we used to be), we have our ups and downs, our broken wills and desires and you weren't born to amaze and impress the others around you.
That's a very dangerous mindset for yourself and humanity as a w(hole) in my honest opinion. Do what you enjoy, if other people agree or disagree with your art and your skills it's none of your concern. Again, props to that dude for doing that.
the jam with the kids is beautiful and those kids are really nice and cool and i love them, kids that age are suposed to be cringy but this dudes have an amazing attitude. my ego was bigger than my body when i was that age
I would not have had the spiritual capacity to enjoy meeting my hero and play with him, it would've been traumatic for me at that age. I would've probably cringed him to death.
lol @18:30 "Rock 'n roll, it's all about rock 'n roll"
*Alexi looking uncomfortable*
Hes thinkin abt how that solo is gonna end up on the internet
Hahahahaha lol!! He’s like I fucked up
the man was so hungover here
What a saint bass player!
I just love it.... nothing more to ssy.
Alexi... we miss you...
Skolnick and Lahio….legend!
Alexi totally fucked up the solo haha^^
Christ, I love Alexi, but that was the worst I've EVER heard him play
Christ, your obviously not from finland....
@@Corpsvore In fairness, 17:07 was abysmal. The rest of the solo was hit and miss, but that little section when it’s mainly just guitar solo was terrible.
Am I the only one who can see that Alexi was hungover when shooting this video?
@@therealapophis4997 he looks hungover and high and also alot worse health issues that we know now. RIP
Alexi started playing in his mothers womb
must have been awesome for those kids :)
Alexi is the fucking man COBHC!!!!
that solo reminds me of Trivium parody video
that solo looool
Sounds like when I play it at that speed. Not a bad cover by this guy though, no one can play like Alexi. Wait....
"alright lemme see a million middle fingers out there"
Oi I wanna know the intro song...what is it? after they introduce themselves
RIP one and only
MUCH LOUDER. But it's getting mods right and idk something different. That BOX out front etc.
Common Ghost next!!
Alexi Laiho likes Poison! 😳
How is that possible? 😅
Hey poison is decent... When one is intoxicated.🤣🤣😂😂😋😋
11:30 Well I found Varg Vikernes.
1.1x Speed for Real Downfall
wish i could do a jam with alexi, boy i wish i was in the same room with him at least once, hopefully in valhalla!!!! \m/\m/\m/\m/\m/\m/\m/\m/
Bodom for life
Alexi, awesome as always. But, did he look super thin?
+Michael Tucker u know ... i see that comment here and there and i agree..... u think he might have something of a health problem or an eating disorder? hope hes ok XD
+your grandaddy Wow, I don't even remember leaving this comment. ;P
this is what i wanted to find out, alot of metal band lead faces are promoting veganism, which is really fucking bad . and they have no nutritional information to offer, it is sad that people are being lured into this trap and using creative people like bands to promote it, its not a good idea to never eat animal products, i do think alexi sounds weak, he is thin yes too thin , i hope he stops this religion of veganism .
He looked nice and healthy here in comparison to now. Literally looks like a reaper.. unrecognizable.
😢❤
Alexi Laiho :'*
What's the song name that they play at the end of the show???
downfall
Drummer isn't playing any of that double bass
LOL 7:35- 7:41 "NEVER"
Why are they playing Downfall on such a slow tempo?
+08padam I think its very close to the orignal tempo. The keyboardist started the song way too fast, luckily Alexi corrected it :D
DON'T YOU TWO WONDERFUL MUSICIANS DARE TO BASH FOLK METAL !
they weren't bashing just joking about it
Whats the name of the song they played?
Downfall
you know you know you know you know
why does that dude have hay on the sides of his head
whats the name of intro song?
It's Downfall, from the Hatebreeder album ^^
Oh look, it's the how to use drop b guy again!
as i saw that i worried About him...he seemed not to be in a good mode…:/ kinda like basically he hasn´t felt well..
He's finnish.
He was smiling in finnish all the time
Dude those kids were killin it lol alexi either wasn't interested or was nervous or some kinda shit lol good interview though
Probably nervous :D . You know it's totally different to play your songs with people you have toured with for over 15 years than people whom you don't know at all.
Is it really a playing-issue though? To me it sounds like a recording-issue. Especially at the 17:06-part - whatever they are recording with can't seem to separate the frequenzies enough at the highest notes and there is a buzz that drowns them out that´s very noticeable from 17:06-17:10. To me it looks like he's playing just fine, but the notes aren´t penetrating the other sounds at that moment.
Any sound-engineers or mixer-folk here that can shed some light?
I'm sorry mate, but it is a playing issue. I loved Alexi as much as the next guy, but there he just cocked it up big time. The only high mid range instrument at that timestamp was Alexi's guitar. The other guitars were in the low mids and the keyboards were relativey quiet at that spot. My guess he was out of it, not warmed up, or possibly both.
He fucked up that solo hard xD, never caught him before, in such a bad performance. He didnt warmed up,his right hand was really inacurate and his left was stoned its audible and visible clearly
I keep thinking that kid with long hair is fucking mick Thompson
Oh and if you narrow-minded think this sounds terrible, you should NEVER go to a live concert, of anyone that doesn't have pre-recorded/lip-syncing (like Britney Spears & others do/have done). Or else you'll be very likely more disappointed than this. Side Note: He's not a professional teacher of it, yet. Deal with it(or not watch this, your choice, right? lol).
Let him speak for god sake
Ugh. Rough playing Alexi.
lol So many of the comments/complaints are SO hilarious. DAs are so funny when they comment (along with their pic). Go play COB songs like a pro in a closed room full of complete strangers. I'm SURE you'll be more than comfortable (*sarcasm) LOL
Say what you want about the solo, whether it’s fine or bad, but I’m sorry. That fast run... Ouch, just ouch. Really bad setup and high action is one thing, but I don’t know if that excuses.. that. One string ringing and practically none of the notes being played (17:07). That’s definitely the roughest I’ve seen any guitarist play their own solo.
What is wrong with the guitar, lol
Can anyone tell me what's up with Alexi? Seems like he lost his mojo, i remember him playing like a fucking god, but for the last 10 years or so i've only seen him getting more and more sloppy :(
it was bc of his drug,alcohol,cig, abuse
@@nordicshredder4128 thanks for answering, RIP Alexi
キーボード下手くそかよ！
and ppl call this guy a guitar player? He should get his shit together first. lol
Rough day and doubt he wanted to be there lol. Actually listen to his shit
Also that is the worst haircut i've ever seen
Lmao
Lol
Alexi has lose many of guitar capabilities the past few years, and we can hear it when he plays Downfall's solo, it's pretty awful !
It's a shame, because he's a great shredder, and I love his solos on many song...
He was one of my fav guitar player in the 2000's, now he's wasted
sooo...alexi is givin' some 'louder education' and don't know sh*t about folk metal? kinda close-minded dude
That is the most ignorant thing I've heard. That's like saying someone in America, who listens to metal, is close-minded because they don't know much about country music.
I didn't like that interviewer in the middle. (Black hair white streak wig)
Watch him, all he does is look Alexi up and down. creepy
Love you Alexi ✨💖 RIP
You will be terribly missed 🎸😢
Alex watching Alexi 😂 do you even know who is this "black hair white streak wig" guy?
@@TheDrogich nope. & it doesn't matter to me😁
..,. It's just a vibe I picked up 🤘🙃🤘
You were staring at a guy, looking at Alexi 😅 soooo creepy 😋
@@TheDrogich 😂😂😂 oops that sounds about right I usually have my eyes on Alexi only!!
.... That dude just creep me out
Now I feel uneasy LoL
Alex Skolnick is the lead guitarist in Testament and does (or did?) his own jazz guitar work. He is a very talented musician and I've met him, he's actually very nice.
That said, Children of Bodom is the reason why I fell in love with heavy metal. Alexi Laiho was very talented as well (R.I.P.)
"oh fuck ! alexi is such an amazing guitar player ! "...
NOPE , he can write some amazing son , but he totally suck on guitar..
Oh I know is most metalbands from Finland are racist.
Not true. Some bad eggs, yes, but definitely not the majority.
Come on you guys...That "double bass" is so fake.. 😑
