alexi laiho vs herman li (guitar duel) !!

[mnmxxx12]

everyone has its own style of playing.... just respect everybody's opinion.....

for me Alexi is more melodic 

[mnmxxx12]

alexi does not use many effect..... he always use his built in gain boost

[troyanojacinto]

Alexi, Herman uses too much effects but Alexi is more talented

[FreebirdNFM]

ALEXIIIIIIII.....DUH!!!

[hernan1081]

laiho whiout seeing video

[korlikhetfield]

HERMAN LI HAHAHAH HE IS SHIT WITH ALIVE... ALEXI IS BETTER

[FrankiethePirate813]

ALEXIIIIII



[iamsofakindumb]

Vote Laiho. Fuck Li and his little fake band mates. Only one worth a real good goddamn is their keyboardist :). GG Studioforce!

[onimusha1995]

@iamsofakindumb herman li is not fake !!

[DAvidgzzgggg]

yeah its so fair, especially when you only included live versions of Herman, and studio versions of laiho

[kungfudragon99]

@DAvidgzzgggg you will never use that word again when discussing metal.

[DAvidgzzgggg]

@kungfudragon99 what word?

[zMirrororriMz]

gotta say .... Herman li ......is hair just has so much SWAG

[onimusha1995]

you exaggerate !!! herman li is in a power speed metal band!!!

in 2006 he is considered the best soloiste and he have a solos that nobody can play ... generally ... it's really a it's a tough guy ...

but as i said ... herman li is faster ... and alexi is more melodic

[DOPSIF]

ALEXI



[reign17gooch]

sum1 needs 2 make an alexi laiho vs jeff loomis video

[MercuriusWarrior]

i want to hear if someone can play better then Herman Li or Alexi Laiho !!!, They both good !!!

[reign17gooch]

@MercuriusWarrior i have 2 words for u buddy.......JEFF LOOMIS

[Shink5]

@reign17gooch Why the fuck is there always some random guy talking about Jeff Loomis on Alexi Laiho videos ??

[reign17gooch]

@Shink5 cuz jeff loomis is the shit!

[Shink5]

@reign17gooch Yeah but so is Alexi , Jeff Loomis outshreds alexi but I prefer Bodom

[reign17gooch]

@Shink5 thats true so wud i. 

[ShredmasteRsl3]

obviously Wildchild!

[Assuass99]

ALEXI cant lose 2 any1 never because Alexi is the new profet of anything Alsexi is god herman is asien looser

[bennyboi56]

alexi is in a better band that dosent need to become famous through guitar hero :L

[Nitionful]

Herman Li have a idiot effect pedals and more -.- . Alexi better

[StabbyRaccoon]

I think it was a little unfair putting Valley Of The Damned first for Herman. The sound quality isn't so great and it isn't his best work. Still Laiho wins in my book.

[StabbyRaccoon]

I think it was a little unfair putting Valley Of The Damned first for Herman. The sound quality isn't so great and it isn't his best work. Still Laiho wins in my book.

[onimusha1995]

in this video it don't have through the fire and flames solo or fury of the storm solo or heroes of our time solo.

both of theme are strong but i prefer herman li because he is a power/speed metal but alexi is just a death/melodic metal

generaly ... herman li is faster and alexi laiho is more melodic ;)

[opsbo]

@onimusha1995 you have all the reason, thanks for thinking

[onimusha1995]

@opsbo thanks :)

[Anrew966]

laiho

[JapasLord]

Alexi is the GOD!!! Everyone is better than Herman

[RangerDangerVideos]

@petewat98

I have met him and roope, they are frickin awesome

[NathanBro1]

alexi

[apostolislaiho]

Alexi Laiho=GOD  \m/

Herman Li=Epic Fail xD

[JapasLord]

@apostolislaiho you spoke eveything. See my video - My perfect rock band (fixed) /watch?v=6JQ1zdPHpMQ

[peace3341]

@apostolislaiho alexi can play good solos herman can play really fast they two are good

[LubadPT]

Herman : Hi! I'm wanna play some dragonforce solos with me ?

Alexi : I would but I've already warmed up , got some real solos to do ;)

[hatecrew4life1]

Well dragonfake sucks dick live and alexi plays is solos live fucking perfect and he's usually wasted when he does so no contest alexi wins.

[EpicMarty101]

idc if herman is fake or not

alexi is way too good for herman

[kalmahkid7]

So are we comparing Alexi to the computer that makes Dragonforce sound complicated or to the shitty guitarist known as Herman Li? Either way, Alexi wins.

[jonathanskate0896]

ALEXI LAIHO IS GOD

[DAvidgzzgggg]

oh yea its really fair how you used studio versions for both..

[milky4194]

ALEXI!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrLindemann89]

WILDCHILD= GODCHILD

[childrenofbodomist]

Herman is some speeded up shit, ALEXI IS GOD!

[Djwhooboy]

Sixpounder motherfuckers!!!!!!!!!!

[Jodveuk]

alexi is better: ) he has worlds best solo guitarist medal : ) but i dont listen to children of a bodom

[X1MetalHead1X]

compare live solos, not studio.

[Sythaz]

Herman Li is far far better then alexi at Wanking and I find dragonforce has more substance to their songs then children of bodom and I think you chose bad examples of dragonforce solos due to your bias going into making this.

[ThrasherDamien713]

Hermann Li is better,than Alexi.

[petewat98]

Ok, stop hating on herman. Alexi kicks his ass, but herman is deffinetly a great guitarist and my respect for him is great. With that being said, alexi laiho is like GOD to me and i would give anything to meet him.

[JHC669]

alexi definetly owns! . Alexi is much more raw and he has million times better riffs! a bunch of super mario effects and lots of speed doesnt makes a great guitarist.

[funstarj]

Here's what you have to remember: All of Alexi's stuff is really carefully written and memorized, while Herman's stuff is pretty much improv. Herman is good at noodling, but not writing. Who gives a shit if he can play faster? Faster doesn't mean better by any stretch.

[onimusha1995]

it's clear hirman lee is with a power metal group and alexi leiho death metal group

CONCLUSION : hirman lee is beter than alexi

[Nail2Brain]

OMG don't making duels with H-L...He is a robot and he was made in CHINA!!! xD No...Herman Li is very good and Alexi too...Herman is faster and Alexi is more melodic ;)

[farukyaz]

@Nail2Brain Yeah but I think Herman Li is more melodic and Alexi is more metal

[Thuggybcobhc]

Alexi gets praised all the time

Herman lee dosent

Alexi sounds good

Herman sounds like a kid noodeling shit on guitar

Alexi has awards and his own guitar videos on rockhouse

Herman needs to give up an stop lookin like Jackie Chans sister

[farukyaz]

@Thuggybcobhc "Alexi has awards and his own guitar videos" so what? Herman has more awards, plus he gives live guitar clinics all over the world besides his own videos. First know enough to compare them.

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

Herman Li owns Wildchild js

[xxxVampyressxxx]

Herman Li is good

Alexi Laiho is God

[979peter]

Alexi wins with no doubt

[Lalojq77]

Yeah Alexi is a god, he sounds strong, powerful, rude and so bad, And German......mmmmm to videogames anymore.....sorry

[Residentshade]

Comparing Alexi Laiho with Herman Li is like comparing God to a potato..

[althomasphe]

whats the alexi laiho song from 1:37 to 2:06

[Djwhooboy]

@althomasphe bodom beach terror :DDD

[XXArmsOfNukesxX]

what was the 1st alexi played?

[310dreamer094]

@XXArmsOfNukesxX

sixpounder i think

[XXArmsOfNukesxX]

@310dreamer094

nah, just checked sixpounder...

[XXArmsOfNukesxX]

@310dreamer094

nah it was. nvm

[alienwarrior9]

ALEXI KICKS ASS

[aceninternisti]

I prefer to herman li

and...

what song title that played alex?

[farukyaz]

Herman Li: more talented and melodic

[hegebox]

@farukyaz haha =) you made me laught :D

[farukyaz]

@hegebox I'm sure you haven't even listened to the whole of this video

[hegebox]

@farukyaz yes i did. i know both guitarist and i say that alexi owns :P

[farukyaz]

@hegebox depends on what aspect you say this. actually i dont see much difference among them

[hegebox]

@farukyaz then you should check live versions of songs

[farukyaz]

@hegebox Yup still no difference..

[hegebox]

@farukyaz well it seems then that you don't have music ear at all...

[farukyaz]

@hegebox come on, millions think like me and millions think like you, there is no conclusion more than saying both are successful..

[hegebox]

@farukyaz my point is that if you listen alexi's play carefully you can notice that his solos goes with major

[darktemptaitions]

hahaha! Dragonfoce can suck my balls. Alexi all the way.

[TheMonsterdante]

Ke pinchis solos tan mas culeros pero la neta

ALEXI LAIHO GANO!!

[yossarianXful]

well so alexi can play Fast&slow solos!But Herman can play only fast!And he is doing epic mystakes!

[b3tBlack]

Alexi ! not just fast but Melodic,....

[amilonk0]

song list at description plz?

[hardyrulez96]

hermans first solo...

THIS BAR X400 etc

[Guitar1sti]

ppl just dont get it kissing the shadows is fast solo but its easy trust me sixpounders solos are like twice as hard

[XXArmsOfNukesxX]

Its like comparing God to Jesus.

[X1MetalHead1X]

@XXArmsOfNukesxX Alexi being God, of course \m/

[mistersusan1471]

Alexi Laiho can play with feeling, speed when he wants to and write melodically interesting and epic solos

Herman Li can suck balls and then record himself sucking balls in the studio and then speed up his ball sucking so he is sucking balls at 20 times the speed he can actually suck balls!

[ThorRising]

he just played one lick for like 3 minutes.... quality over quantity alexi wins

[diephobia]

alexi will fuck everyone, and kill everyone, and fuck everyone again!!!

[Bodom873]

Can somone try to learn herman a new lick im getting pretty tired of that shitty lick!!

[type87randomXD]

\,m,/

[thomizzskate]

alexi rapes everyone! he is a fucking beast at guitar

[xikomadrid17]

herman li \m/

[MrTheUchiha]

Herman Li 

[joseav93]

Laiho is GOD!!

and Kissing the shadows??

[Adicone16040]

@joseav93 if poser put kissing the shadows solo, herman li will be fired by his own company...

[lu5tic]

@joseav93 herman li sucky my hairy balls

[SuperGuitartom]

alexi is magic!!!!!!! herman no

[hydrOstem]

What a stupid fucking video. You didn't even pick any of Alexi's best solos. Alexi Laiho is far more musical, technical and enjoyable to listen to. Alexi can play every single thing that Herman CAN'T outside of the studio. I don't know where some of you idiots don't think Alexi is just as if not more technical than Herman.

[guitargod250]

Alexi is my god. But Ive never heard the solos by Herman. I see it this way. Theyre about as good, different styles obviously, but Bodom is just a much better band than dragonforce. Its Dragonforce that kills Herman Li.

[skylord081]

ALEXI!!!!!

Herman Li is definitely more skilled....but there is absolutely no match in creativity, compositional ability and musical sense.....you definitely need skill...but after a limit its creativity that matters....nonetheless i must say im sick of people trashing Herman because of a bad concert.....true all he does is play fast but some respect must be given...hes definitely very skilled...but Alexi wins xD

[zetanbow16]

the first picture alexi looks like the good dio

[FlyingPandasTheBand]

no contest alexi kicks hermans ass

[CaptainRhodesK]

Are you fucking Kiding !

Alexi kickz Hermans ass

[Mondiola123]

herman li rocks is an amazing guitarrist , but Alexei Laiho Is A guitar god , he plays and sing , ALEXI FOREVER :)

[One800yOuRmOm8D]

these two shouldnt even be compared.. now wintersun and bodom are a better match.

[russellpreston1]

ALEXI WILDCHILD LAIHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[H3viSika]

@russellpreston1 ALEXXXXXXI DILDO LAIH0

[russellpreston1]

@H3viSika hermen ching li now shut the hell and go shove a dildo up ur ass since u seem to like them so much

[Darkzabuza7]

ALEXI

[SilentDestruction900]

Alexi is origional and has been playing for longer. Herman is no where as good and only does tapping and whammy effects. Thats why he beat Marty Friedman on a Live Japan show. But if it was Alexi or if Marty used a whammy, Herman wud get powned.

[mariekjje]

alexi ofcourse!! he kicks ass A.

[chrisbodom666]

Alexi Laiho is better

Herman is fake and speeds up his shit up

[MikaelLV]

Alexi Laiho FOR SURE!!! Herman Li can't even play his own solos live. And his own solos are boring! Wildchild pwnz this chinese asshole!

[goreofwarofficial]

Alexi Laiho is the better because Alexi Laiho is the second son of god

[SeanyFens]

Herman Lis first solo was boring and repetitive. Anyways Alexi kicks Hermans ass anyday, even when Alexi is shithammered. Alexi wins and Faggotforce/STudioforce/Shitty­Force sucks balls.

[YamiTenshi666]

Alexi Laiho of course he can play guitar even if he is drunk

[SuperAlexi600]

no doubt HERMAN :D. haha just kidding i love you alexi \m/

[ironsepultura92]

alexi of course !!!

[TheSnupa]

alexi laiho is better ^.^

[StefanTheSerb]

Alexi decapitates Herman. \m/

[skyxanhellz]

Alexi is just totally full of AWESOMENESS!!!!

[theunitedspeed]

ALEXI!!!!!

HE DONT SPEED SHIT UP!!

[foreveresp]

its hard to find a guitarist to match alexi laihos awesomness the guys from another universe of guitar playing!!!

[whitetower94]

OF COURSE ALEXI!!

[Equestional]

they are too different for me to call

herman can be melodic

alexi is agressive and wild at playing, but i like alexis tone 10x better

[RoseMetalKSE]

Just first be as good as herman li is and then make him fake or "fuck him". Also, they are both very good guitarists, one of the best.

[metalguitarguy95]

Fuck herman. Laiho has way better technique and skill. Half of the shitt Herman makes he can"t play live because he sucks so much ass

[itme4444]

@metalguitarguy95 he can play it live ive seen him and just look at Dragonforce videos of him playing solos in real time

[dropout02]

@itme4444 hermin is terribad

[itme4444]

@dropout02 have u seen him live or heard any slow songs by dragonforce. By your comment u havent. And its Herman. Laiho= \m/

[wirahamzah]

ALEXI LAIHO 100% DOMINATION

[COBfan1996]

LAIHO RULEZ!!

[XDHighGain]

Herman best

[Nkulgj]

Herman is one of the bests guitarists on earth, but near Alexi his solos sound boring. Alexi is so epic!!

[megadethfans96]

alexi laiho is the way better cause alexi isn't use effects like delay or whammy pedal...

[saltywoody]

@megadethfans96 he does use a whammy pedal sometimes

[ReapersLord]

no one can say who is better than the other.

now for me alexi laiho is better than herman but for another one it could be herman.

after all it depends.

[halvarthered]

Herman Li is all fake, he cant play at all. Alexi Laiho i way better

[K4LMAH]

Laiho has way better sounding solos, he takes time in his solos. herman just hits every note on the fret board tryin to make it sound cool. lets face it COB= real metal!!! and DF= little kid shit!!!

[COBHC963]

omfg herman li sounds like shit, and he plays the same thing forever its so annoying, alexi kicks him in the teeth

[Dnine1]

Hermans better XD

[SilentDestruction900]

@Dnine1 Hermans a bitch Alexi makes him look like a pansy

[BarsNChained]

laiho is way superior. herman lii is awful i can play most of his stuff.. hes terrible he plays the same lick for hours

[Dzonadaja]

Herman pwns laiho they should put TTFAF or Fury of the storm solo !

[tawnyorc]

@Dzonadaja Both sound awful.

[COBHC963]

@tawnyorc ill rape you with barbed wire

[SkUnreal]

laiho completely pwns li

[BringerOfTruth123]

This video is INCORRECT. not hating on clashguitarist BUT if you're going to make a video of alexi vs herman, make sure you ONLY put herman solos during the herman parts. 0:23-1:36 is a choppy version of the solo(s) in from the song valley of the damned. Now any real df fan, like myself, knows that herman li and sam totman trade off constantly. So some of the dragonforce in this video is not just herman li. it is also sam totman.

[GatesRoolz]

yet alexi still beats the shit out of both of them

[BringerOfTruth123]

@GatesRoolz i respect your opinion completely but i can't fully agree with it because children of bodom and dragonforce are two of my absolute favorite bands so they are tied.

[GatesRoolz]

@BringerOfTruth123 two of mine too dude, herman and sam are fuckin insane on guitar but they use pretty much same thing in their solos, exept one song in ultra beatdown, (i forget the name of it) and alexi has like, neo-classical, blues, country and whole load of other shit goin on yknow?

[BringerOfTruth123]

@GatesRoolz yeah i understand what you're saying. at least you're showing df some respect. So many people despise them just because they had a song on guitar hero. idc what anyone says i love them. and fuckin bodom. but you need to tell me which ultra beatdown song you're talking about so I can listen and see what you mean.

[GatesRoolz]

@BringerOfTruth123 i think its reasons to live or the last journey home, its nothing fancy or anything its just they play kinda slow but its really good because they dont usually do that kinda stuff in their solos, they usually fly around the neck, it kicks ass but i just think it gets a bit old after a while, its nice to hear a little diversity

[MagicVyctor]

Alexi wins

[xHeArLs0x]

song name 2:9 ???????? dragonforce please name

[BringerOfTruth123]

Cry of the Brave :-)

[DeathAmphetamine100]

People are really stupid when comparing guitarist and musicians.Alexi is 20 miles away from Herman Li,Alexi is faster,he can write,and his more creative with his stuff.

[lhtc36682]

herman li ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ is the best

[buhahaha183]

if you wanna compare guitarists put some one who is worth it!!! alexi composes songs and he plays and sings at the same time,do you know how hard is that????!!!! he can OWN you all!!!!!!!!

[Leonisgoed]

Herman Li is much faster and has longer solo's but I think Alexi Laiho has far more creation and he doesn't sound like a mario videogame but just METAL

[akhimakhi93]

agreed there

[akhimakhi93]

Although i dont enjoy dragonforce music...gotta admit hermani li is skilled so stop bashing him cause half you fucks cant play close to what he plays

Having said that i prefer Alexi COB!!!! \m/

[Stratovarctica666]

Yeah , Li couldn't play his stuff at the show ft. Turisas >:(

I WAS RLY MAD AT THEM !! >:( !!

[1drunkcrustpunk]

HERMAN MUTHA FUCKIN LI!!!You should know by now!

[hugocfr]

Should of put mask of sanity! The solo is much crazier

[Dzonadaja]

@ShaNz194 thank you 6 ppl don't agree with me :(

[ChildrenofBodom6699]

Alexi Laiho

[BodomKaQ]

@ChildrenofBodom6699 Definetily!
