Zakk is much better than lahio, lahio plays the same thing in all his solos and zakk has more style and perfect guitar control. Long live the king of guitar ZAKK WYLDE!!!
Stylistically, when playing solos, they're almost the same, except Alexi has a bit more variety in his technique, and Zakk has a slightly more bluesy feel.
Alexi said Janne started off as a full-blown jazz player, before he joined COB. Him and Alexi would toss stuff back and forth, and they would always try to match each other in skill. If Janne couldn't do something, he'll say, "I'll figure something out." Then he'll come back with whatever it was and kill it. I like both guitarists. Zakk sounds like Buckethead in style, and Alexi is more controlled, yet willing to be crazier. KEYBOARDIST WINS! xD
Zakk is not as skilled as alexi. Saw them both live two days ago. Alexi is way more original. I didn't realize how all BLS songs sound the same until I was scratching my head at the concert. Zakk has very generic scales he follows when soloing. Its dull. Alexi is scary good.
@benuncc2011 I noticed the same thing when I saw them two days ago. Zakk did a 10 minute long solo where he played lke 3 scales over and over. I actually got bored from BLS.
@DoomTrooperSDMF And Fuck you too.COB and BLS are great bands.And about Zakk and Alexi.Its different geners and different generation.Its like Father and son.The same like Zakk is son of Hendrix or Page.I like a little more Zakk but Alexi is kickass to.
@Jforce7..."sounds too much like every other guitarist like him, ie dimebag, steve vai, stevie ray vaughn" - if you think zakk sounds like vai and/or vaughn, it's probably because you wear nail polish too.
@zakk2222..." but if Alex lost the nail polish " - lol.
I have been following Zakk's career since 1987, And I have been playing guitar for the past six year's. So in my opinion Zakk Wylde is a much better Guitar Player and has way more talent and fortitude. By the way that's not how you spell opinion. DINGCHECKMATE
@zakk2222.... THAT right there proves your oppinion is not even worth reading.... "if alexi lost the nailpolish" us other people go by talent and actual ability,you obviously no nothing about either...
@Jforce7 are you kidding me Zakk has his own style which is very different from every guitarist you mentioned. This post of yours must be a joke right?
@Sivertsen17 well, there gonna be in vancouver togeether on the 22, of september, but i'm not sure about where u r, check the interent for tour details
@monochromeEARTH I'm in norway!:( fml! do you mind telling me a page where it says the tour details. i don't think it is on either zakkwylde or childrenofbodomhc :(
Alexi has way more taste for precision instead of noisy speedruns, i must say alexi won hard, zakk goes more for looking cool then sound actually good, it was more like a bunch of random scales with the highest possible speed, not good in my ears :)

Zakk, Dimebag,Steve Vai,Stevie Ray Vaughn are all in a higher class, but if Alex lost the nail polish maybe he to could be a guitar God.
