[michaeljmanzi]

god damn thats impresssive

[RaTeXiLaiho]

if u had tattoo on our finger i would think that u are alexi :X

[MrMakshit]

Woah man, which distortion pedal do you use ?

Can you tell me the name ?

[789ibanez]

man you are awesome what is your distortion ???

[Gacelish]

woah mate ... i suck so hard on guitar :_(

after 3 years of daily practice im not even close yet to playing this

[jbohler33]

@Gacelish how many hours a day? from the 6-12 months you should play on avg 7 hours a day, and then at least 3 hours a day afterwards.

[Gacelish]

@jbohler33 hehe, i play 2 hours everyday so I guess I should get a bit more serious then? :D

[jbohler33]

@Gacelish If you want to play this kind of metal, yeah :) Half of Alexi's shit is feel, that's why it sounds so good with the bends/whammy bar/harmonics shit, combined with technique. But that comfortability only comes with years of disciplined, daily practice; there's no other way. Even though now he is mostly partying lol, when he first started he played most of the day, every day. If you are already playing 2 hours a day you are still probably pretty good though :) Check out metalsuki's vids

[Gacelish]

@jbohler33 hehehe thank you for the info! i upload videos with my progress from time to time too :) gonna check out that metalsuki

peace!

[Bazztoner]

You´re my fucking hero!

[Biossschock]

hi dude the cover is very perfeckt 100% can you give me pls tabs?

[MrFinntrollin]

I just need to say it.. I jizzed everytime you did a pinch harmonic. Those were fucking sexy!

[caseyjones67]

why do alexis guitars only have one pickup

[willykakka]

@caseyjones67 he does not need 2nd

[ibraimi101]

wow :P nice played mate keep it going :P

[CravenTazz]

uuum...... WOW!

[superalexanderimjihy]

Good one

[RaTeXiLaiho]

if this guy had tattoo on his hand, i'd thought that it is alexi :D

[nunofrg]

what gear do you use??

[ChildrenOfBodom813]

ALEXI!! Stop covering your own songs, and get back to the tour :P

[Samp0123]

Awesome.



[brian96361]

man this is the best cover I've seen of this song congratulations

[IrishRocker7710]

I like how you learn the songs pretty much note for note cause I like to watch your covers when I learn cob songs. I hate the scrubs who come on youtube and play the songs totally wrong

[TheHavocX]

I don't see a reason why people freak out so much about this guy. He is very good guitar player, but there are lots of better guitar players on Youtube. He makes mistakes in every song just like everyone else cause nobody's perfect. I would rate him 4/5 if I could.

Only props to him for recording all COB covers :D

[denisjalsovec]

sick man! verrryy nice!

[joelrod18]

3:15 thats wut she said (;

[TheBaconslice]

@joelrod18 shut up

[ChristlGuitarist]

[funkymonkey0426]

"MUST....LEARN.....SOLO"

*3 minutes later*

"HOW THE FUCK DID THAT EVEN HAPPEN? NOW MY WHOLE HOUSE IS ON FIRE, SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!"

[stoner331]

[AngerunMaggot]

Que buen cover. :D

[DagonDsRus]

[biraininhe12]

[TheDUDE101GOOD]

this is why sweep picking is the best of all other picking tehcniques

[jerepih]

i only can play teh rythm guitar of this song xD

[ironmaiden0510]

Very nice dude! and your sound is amazing! is that the cheap ltd? or the esp? Or washburn or whatever, what amp do you use? how do you get your sound! its awesome!

[konothecook]

I really want to learn this song, but I'm too lazy to figure it all out. 4.5/5 for the cover, not bad, because this song is kind of a pain in the ass.

[JoaquinAlbero]

you are my new god

[caralegal111]

very good

[LaughingMage]

I LOVE YOUR TONE HOLY SHIT

AND I LOVE YOUR GUITAR

AND I LOVE YOU

[juandiego9427]

In the second part of the solo you're sweepings are wrong ni the form... and also you forgot that that have tapping. Anyways... one of the best covers of this song cheer!

[JediStamos]

DUDE GREAT COVER. Solo 100% epicly done

[Arctandem]

You are playing the main lead incorrectly.

Watch a video of Laiho playing the lead. You will find there is much easier and better sounding way to play the lead.

Don't feel bad. Everyone on youtube plays that lead wrong.

[TheRainerAlkohol]

what' s that for a guitar?

[alienwarrior9]

holy shit, that's bad ass, COB rulez

[Georgis1995]

Respect...

[Elite7555]

just awsome...really bad :D

[deathonics]

That might be the hardest song ever and you played it perfectly

[ironmaiden0510]

@deathonics hardest song ever? lol

[deathonics]

@ironmaiden0510 na just a hard one

[ironmaiden0510]

@deathonics Yea, thats better :p 

[goodvocalcover]

[4spida2fingaz0]

[monsterofmuaythai]

[arteswcrew94]

OH MY GOD!

[dirtymonkey03]

[malvadino]

Awsome Skills Gear?

[psychosuey]

lol when i saw you had the pink guitar and blooddrunk t shirt / flag i was going to write pure abuse. but you play it well. well done. shame this band went to shit after hate crew deathroll (and even thats dodgey)...there new video has skateboarders in... BFMV and AX7 fanboys are going to fap off INSTANTLY lol.

(Rant over)

[MyGreatFall]

@psychosuey Sigh... Is it wrong to put a skateboarder (It's not any skateboarder, it's Tony freakin' Hawk! The best skater in the world, by far!) in a music video? Every video with Children of Bodom doesn't have to reflect who they are, maybe they actually think that it would be cool (Which it is)?

[behemoth1254]

avesome !!! you can play giutar very goooooooooooooood!

i dont like children of bodom

but your cover is god !

[ABryant066]

holy shit dude that was epic. you even got the string bends and whammy's IDENTICAL to Alexi Laiho. Nice

[Heavimies]

how long have you played?? where are you from??

[tcfboarder]

dude ur fuckin awesome and what string guage do u use?

[DecadenceBeyond12]

sloppy on the sweeping at the last solo. i dont blame you though cuz its fast as fuck. awesome job though d00000d!!!!

[Doodorz]

@ciadude2 Jesus plays something gay, like a trumbone or a tuba.

[stuffmuffins]

you double picked alot of notes. ha take your time.

[imaginesc4]

Anyone know where I can get the sheet music for this song?

[COBHCFinMetal]

Holly shit!!! this song is so fucking hard!!! D: Epic solo dude!! u did it awesome :D

[azchokeslam]

Best cover of this song I have seen yet! Way to go dude.

[TerminusCOBHC]

This song is tough as Hell to learn. I give you props for powering through.

[DhFIREBIRD]

clean ^^

[IrnBruDude000]

awesome man, im trying to learn this .Did it take long to perfect?

[Armsterman1301]

@IrnBruDude000 3 weeks maximum.

[appelmoespotdeksel]

damn, you truely earned playing that guitar oO

[ryanisc001]

ladys and gental man this guy.

[hammastahn4]

[TebaRockGod]

[Bruntti]

[mammothsoulja]

[RhoadsFan9]

holy shitt, is that the actaully ESP?

like, the 4000 esp alexi plays?

[C0bfan666]

@RhoadsFan9 it's an edwards

[ManofWar55]

@RhoadsFan9. It's an Edwards

[1ammaccabanane]

man that's awesome!!! how long did it take to learn it??

[thechachou07]

it's better than alexi laiho in concert!

[Luuk1h]

@thechachou07 Shut up... Alexi does singing too, believe me, that's fucking hard to do!

[Urnimin]

@Luuk1h And plays infront of thousands of people. And is probably completely pissed :P

[SatyrX09]

@Luuk1h man, whoever disagrees with you, got to be the biggest douche ever

[MrMino503]

@Luuk1h yea sure with the lead it's hard

[FRsleepwalker]

@Luuk1h If it's too hard to do he doen't have to do it.

The point is that Alexi is very bad now. (Watch the Bloodstock Kissing the shadows version)

[2STManuel]

@Luuk1h jeah thats right , see live version of this song

[JediStamos]

E P I C A L

[tcfboarder]

dude ur fuckin awesome!

[Aiswaii]

Nicely done. Some little mistakes and your hands are out of sync at some quick parts but who cares. Great cover :)

[bedofrazors94]

epic guitar playing and how much did the guitar cost i wanna get alexis ltd 600 similar to that one just his black with yellow pinstripes

[KapaKastle]

best cover of this song ive seen 10 out of 10 oh nice AXE

[Akilles047]

Ur awesome!

[avok23]

Seems your tabs are differnt. did you transcribe by ear cos the tab i have has me playing streched power cords at the end of one solo

[Jenswsmjens]

damn. you blew me away. O.O

[JDTMusicEveryday]

Madness, GREAT playing

[hohlkopf12]

omg the solo seems 2 be hard... :o great job!

[avok23]

@hohlkopf12 Its stupidly hard i doubt Alexi cna still play it as he has gone super lazy

[bedofrazors94]

@avok23 alexi hasnt gone lazy hes an awesome guitarist and after so much touring and studio time you need a break and thats exactly what hes doing

[avok23]

@bedofrazors94 Dude he has. He said it himself. Its why they did a cover album. BTW can you not see how sloppy he plays. Look for the clip where he plays this song in korea. It was horrible

[bedofrazors94]

@avok23 well i dont really care alexi is one of my idols and he always will be no matter what anyone says or does i dont care how horrible his guitar playing is at any point he has inspired me at plenty of times so nothing is chaanging that

[avok23]

@bedofrazors94 Dude you must be a foolish child. I never said he wasnt good. I just claimed he cant play half his songs anymore which is evident by the crappy last album and cover album. He is still one of my favourite guitarists. All I said was that this song was by far the hardest and it has made me a bit better in the last month

[bedofrazors94]

@avok23 well from what i was understanding when u said he was sloppy i took it as u thought he wasnt a good guitarist

[NickSmith222]

@bedofrazors94 cool story bro

the vid rocked u killed it dude mass skill i wish i had. i need more practice

[avok23]

@bedofrazors94 Bed of Razors was the first complete song i learnt lol.

[alexijunior13]

UR A GOD..............

[SxXExecutionerXx]

I wish whomever you are would player guitar for this lonely death/black metal vocalist...

[SxXExecutionerXx]

dude that was fucking badass! keep it black metal brotha!

[FRsatanic666]

Some errors but it's really good ! Alexi himself do error on this song ...

[Samaus699]

do you have any tips on learning something like this?

[DarkLordNagash]

I could bitch around saying some of the lead parts have a few lousy notes, but overall this is a great cover, and the song is so difficult that I couldn't even play it half as good. very well done !

[dwayne515]

hahah the solo was bloodshed.. 5/5 :D

[oliverGuitarWorld]

great cover i really dont know how to play the melody (chorus part)i can play the notes fast enough but it sounds bad!can someone help me or give me an advise how to practise this part?

[skyxcomx]

got sloppier by the second. D:

nethertheless kick fucking ass!

your tone has its ups and downs though :/ --- what do you use?

*liked*

[feli404]

good job

[MetalStephen]

That is just plain epic dude.Yeah i agree with Sara people are just jealous when they say bad things bout this vid.Im a guitar player myself and i know how hard Children of bodom songs can be lol.

[DaRkRiOt32123]

<<<<<<zzzz<<<45

[UseUrHead503]

nice cover man, how long hav u been playin?

[anonymous69er]

your damn good budday, but your sweeps suck!!! other than that its awesome

[ZomgMetalRules1989]

DUDE, you nailed those fucking solos!, im surprised though at the start you do the pinch harmonic on the 5th fret rather than the 7th, (same string ofcourse) personally i think the pitch on the 7th is closer to what alexi plays than the 5th, but thats just me, and it could also possibly be your amp

[Onauc88]

good thing that also such great guitar players are bodom fans and make covers of their songs and put them on youtube

[horrorbandguitar]

WOW!!!

nice cover

[Mr500Ninjaboy]

damn i wish i could play guitar like that

[SyrionG]
