personally, as a guitarist myself, i've been pining over the 2 original solos from Hate Me!. hands down my favorite laiho work. that one, in your face and trashed lost & strung out. aw maannn
¿where is Kissing the shadows?, it's obvious that plenty of people here doesn't even know what children of bodom is, just listening BloodDrunk, and are you dead yet. If you want to do a comparison with alexi laiho's solos you should listen the first albums of COB because in those album is where alexi's potential is really exploded.
@warhead1970 Yes, there are talented guitarists, but not as talenteed as Alexi. It's not only how well he plays, he also sings. If you think he's overrated, go and find us another guitarist who can play solos like Alexi and also sing while playing fast riffs.
@warhead1970 true say... there are other talented guitarists... but his style, his creativity is un matched... that and he sings... that deserves +10 points street rep
@pincolio Actually bed of razors solo isn't that great i think.. Children of decadence solo is so great. Its emotional and.. i even have no words for it. and downfall is one of the best too. So my list goes like this:
@greyfox429 playing just metal wouldn't get u anywhere however if you put different genres into your style then you start to progress and that's exactly what alexi did
I just showed Aelxi Laihos first solo off to my brother who is an a7x fan. I have never shown this to anyone who didnt say it wasnt awesome up until that moment.
Alexi is the only guy that can acctually write solos that fit in the song. I didn't listen to COB for 2 years now, and suddenly I realised that all other "shreders" sounded like shit to me :/ that is why I had to hear Alexi again!
Punch me i bleed i think has the most feel too it. but as for technicality i would defenently choose bodom beach terror. ah screw it, all of alexi's solos are AMAZING!!!
@ipod13dude well...all bodom solos are fucking great....i love them all!!....i love children of bodom! is one of the greatest bands for me of the world...they have technique...they have fucking great musicians...a great mind....an amazing vision.....i think this of the best solo cant exist because all the solos are according to the song...its true that some of the solos are better but imagine if we put the solo of downfall to angels dont kill! i say only enjoy the great music that bodom play....
@crazian697 What people should realise is that 4/5 of these solos were taken from the Stockholm concert and the other from another concert. The dude who uploaded this video just picked his favourite from some videos lying around on youtube haha.
@Whiplash161372 le solo de sixpounder n'est pas mal non plus mais je suis d'accord avec vous le solo de kissing the shadows est le mailleur solo des COB : )
laiho plays the same damn pentatonic scale in every solo i have ever heard him play. so sick of it. not saying he doesnt have any skill, he just needs to expand his repertoire. like a lot.
@ryan4951 1 Hendrix hasn't so much technique as Laiho but give me emotions... hendrix,Page,Blackmore, Wylde,Roads,Iommi are very guitarist....this guitarist in this solos doesn't give me emoptions
Se tu ti emozioni con questi soli sono CAZZI TUOI!
@vakalaiho yeah, Kissing the Shadows has quite possibly both the best guitar solo and the best keyboard solo I've ever heard. What makes them even better is that they're dueling. :D
on 5 Alexi was like "Oh I´ll improvise something to make the crowd happy, some tapping, some random shredding, some high bends and to finish some dive bombs, that should be enough."
I can never understand kids, nowadays. If they've ever heard Pink Floyd, or Led Zep, or Bad Company, or ANY of the GREATEST Rock and Roll (the 70's), they know that FAST DOES NOT EQUAL GOOD. Where is the MELODY?
The solo in Hotel California, or Stairway to Heaven, or Black Sabbath, What do have in common? YOU CAN ACTUALLY HUM, OR SING, THOSE SOLOS! THEY HAVE MELODY!
Im sure Alex is talented. If he would only SLOW DOWN, and think about MELODY. Maybe these Speed Metal guys CAN'T DO THAT??
@mikkespo1 dude go fuck urself??? "kids now-adays ...." if ur some 40 year old dude, i think u would have better things to do than comment on things like this. "If he would only SLOW DOWN, and think about MELODY. Maybe these Speed Metal guys CAN'T DO THAT??" What the fuck is up with that. This is melodic death metal. Notice the word "melodic" in there? U have no clue whatsoever, please, go hate on some other video, because u have nothing else to do in ur life.
You surely only refer to the first solo. Watch the other ones and then complain about lack of melody. You can "hum and sing" them. Alexi is much more gifted than the guitarists of the bands you said put together.
