what i loved about alexi was that he was what i would call a "natural" player. its not clean or perfect, his left hand fingering isnt the most efficient... its pure feel and energy. as opposed to a perfectionist creature like jari maenpaa, probably my favourite metal guitar player
@@rkseh If I'm not mistaken he broke his wrist in 2004 and never went to hospital to recover god knows how much time passed since that and he had to relearn everything once again and most likely where he started to become sloppy plus his alcoholism issues.
my favourite thing about alexi is how he just makes the guitar scream! and the sounds he makes with it....hes just got the greatest feel of any metal guitarist ive come across before
Alexi is one of the coolest guitar players, every video and concert i see him in, he's having fun. all it takes is a great attitude about what u do for a living and everyone will love and support u. i love and support Alexi :)
0:47 Alexi says: Let's do it again, something similar, let's just mess around. The other guy says (gathering his jaw from the carpet): Was it bad or something?!? Alexi replies: the tappings could be better. Holy sht.
This shows the importance of having an engineer with you, or rather someone to hit the record/ rewind button over and over again. I love me some bodom.
I know that, I love Alexi too. Children of Bodom have probably been the band that's biggest influenced my music tastes, my point was that Loomis and mainly Abasi have also got remarkable riff/solo writing skills. I'm not trying to cause an argument I was just pointing it out. :)
Alexi plays with intensity and charisma...runs all over the stage and actually looks like he has fun doing it...alot of other guys just stand in one spot and play...how exciting is that. He's also very skilled and can hang with the best!
In music you have all kind of players and its not about who is the most technical and insane , technical and insane isnt always that special. Music just has to be good, when its good its good , I love Alexi !!
hey does anyone know how he makes that growling sound at 1:47, do you need a tremolo or some kind of effect? ive been trying to figure it our for months.
There are two guitarists in Children Of Bodom. Roope latvala who plays rythm and Alexi Laiho who does Lead Guitar and Lead Vocals. The guy you see in the video is Alexi.
0:00-1:17 was Sioux City Sarsaparilla 1:17-2:23 was Alexi's take for 12 Donkeys (He didnt use any of the ones shown in the video, thus none of THOSE solos are on that CD) 2:23 - end was again, Sioux City Sarsaparilla Both Tracks are on the Finnish "Guitar Heroes" album.
Maybe, what I wanted to say that they have really hard songs to play and if I was him I would worry about quality of my playing while on stage. I saw some late videos of kissing the shadows and he played it great and his back on the good road. I love this guys playing, with Jeff Loomis and Jari Mäenpääto me most influential
RIP Alexi ..the greatest to ever do it. you're a true legend now. god bless your soul what a talent.😞😞
what i loved about alexi was that he was what i would call a "natural" player. its not clean or perfect, his left hand fingering isnt the most efficient... its pure feel and energy. as opposed to a perfectionist creature like jari maenpaa, probably my favourite metal guitar player
well he started off being a perfectionist..then ya..we know what happened. If he never lived the self abusing life style, man..he'd kill all
Sounds Like Alexi was a way cooler dude
Very True....
And now officially a guitar god, when Guitar World magazine ranked Alexi as #1 metal guitarist :)
1.000.000 and almost 10years old, i remember when you uploaded this video, i cant believe you never done part 2 of GuitarHeroes!
He was on his prime here, very clean playing and focused. Shame he's gone too soon, we won't ever forget you, bro. :(
i think his prime was before 2005. in 2006 he was already a sloppy drunk at least live. hate the stockholm show
@@rkseh If I'm not mistaken he broke his wrist in 2004 and never went to hospital to recover god knows how much time passed since that and he had to relearn everything once again and most likely where he started to become sloppy plus his alcoholism issues.
I feel SO proud to be from Finland right now!!!
I'm absolutely in love with his whammy bar technique. it just kills me
my favourite thing about alexi is how he just makes the guitar scream! and the sounds he makes with it....hes just got the greatest feel of any metal guitarist ive come across before

i love and support Alexi :)
Alexi is awesome because he doesn't just shred, he plays with feel too. He's fucking amazing
Rock in peace Wildchild you are very missed and will never be forgotten
0:47 Alexi says: Let's do it again, something similar, let's just mess around.
The other guy says (gathering his jaw from the carpet): Was it bad or something?!?
Alexi replies: the tappings could be better.
Holy sht.
It was kinda sloppy though :)
1:46....you're a badass....
Agreeeeeeeee

so true, so true. he is hands down my favorite guitarist. everything he does is amazing
This shows the importance of having an engineer with you, or rather someone to hit the record/ rewind button over and over again. I love me some bodom.
Rest in peace king

Some metal fans seem to hate on this guy quite a bit, but look at the skill. One of the best guitarist roaming the planet, period!

Totaly agree!!!!
OMG sweeping & tapping - -'
alexi is a god !!
There are two guitarists in Children Of Bodom. Roope latvala who plays rythm and Alexi Laiho who does Lead Guitar and Lead Vocals. The guy you see in the video is Alexi.
so what album is he recording the solos for here???
How do they record this?? i see the amp behind but no mic or anything :S
dudes laying down like million dollar solos and he's like 'next'?
Does anyone know what type of floating bridge Alexi is using on his ESP?
I know one of the 3 of the solo bits are from sioux city..... (cant spell it) but whats the other one from?
Best metal guitarist of all time.
pls anybody knows which pickup hes using here??
so which is in the guitar?? pls =D
greetings
does anybody know where i can find tabs for it/ how the song is called in which he plays it?
this guy is unbelievable
0:35
:D I love it! His laugh is very animated!
I want to know how he keeps his guitar so quit when he is tapping. I always get alot of ambient string noise.
does anyone know whats the white pad effects? i see laiho using it
The guitar with the purple fretmarkings.. what is that called?
this is why i cry at night
1:46 i love that sound
0:00-1:17 was Sioux City Sarsaparilla
1:17-2:23 was Alexi's take for 12 Donkeys (He didnt use any of the ones shown in the video, thus none of THOSE solos are on that CD)
2:23 - end was again, Sioux City Sarsaparilla
Both Tracks are on the Finnish "Guitar Heroes" album.
Alexi is my hero
how do you do the noise at 1:47 please someone tell me
what was the first riff in the background from? it didnt sound familiar.
thank u
yo what song is he playing in the beginning? and the second one?
what are the songs he is recording i know the first is sioux city sarsapirilla but what are the other?
that middle solo was sick :)
Reason Alexi is good,
He puts time into his instrument
the more you put into it the more you get out of it
thankyou! :0
them solos!
are these riffs/solos for his other band synergy? not COB cuz they dont sound like any cob things can anyone help me out ?
Maybe, what I wanted to say that they have really hard songs to play and if I was him I would worry about quality of my playing while on stage. I saw some late videos of kissing the shadows and he played it great and his back on the good road. I love this guys playing, with Jeff Loomis and Jari Mäenpääto me most influential
