As well as it being complicated so a little bit of sloppiness will occur at times, but I think he was quite ill for a few of the videos in this dvd set, so that would be hard to play ill wouldn't it?
i am really not a fan of children of bodom but man, alexi is like Zeus of guitars. He is not the only guitar god in the world, but he is the best for sure!
@CrafterzMinecraft I didn't ask your your fucking piece of shit asshole opinion OK?!?!?!??! You only exist cause your parents coudn't afford an abortion and your daddy fucked your mommy so hard the condom broke and he was too drunk to pull out. HOW ABOUT THAT YOU PUSSY LITTLE BITCH!!!!!!!!!! I HOPE YOU FUCKING DIE SLOWLY MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@999N0t3str34k dude, just go listen thrash metal then, its not like the songs other bands you like just vanished, they are still there. don't bother other bands and guitar players who probably look up to bands you like
It's incredible how Zakk Wylde can really play well...He has great tattoos as well... I just didn't like he left Black Sabbath, but someday he'll play again with DIo on the bass.
I fucking can't understand why people fucking come here to make fucking hateful comments. I mean, fuck you, go watch the videos of your oh-so-perfect favourite guitar players.
@chobybutcher of course he is sloppy! but the music is still good for sure, so what can we do ya know? Alexi is like every begginner metal guitar players dream. Then you soon get over him and go onto the real greats, like randy rhoads, and jason becker and shit
can you blame him. Making a complex riff like that, cant get it perfect everytime... Maybe steve vai can but lol hey its alexi, he dont give a rats ass
@Mohawkalicious His playing was much tighter back then, and his compositions were more technical too. I'm not against the style of music they're playing now, but when I see him try to play technical shit he used to be able to play, he can't do it as well because he's probably practicing a lot less than he used to. His solos for example; he can barely play any of the old ones anymore and just plays generic tapping and sweeping instead.
@jbohler33 actually in an intreview he said he hates his first album becouase it was wayyy to technical and practicly felt like a robot thats why he changed his style
@jbohler33 Well, RRF is pretty hard too, but in a different way. He doesn't have to care much about muting, but more about right hand precision. It's also pretty hard to develop and maintain, but just in different ways.
@austinfailz Dont judge me because I am a "drummer." I know just as much about melody as the next guy and I can say that you probably dont know much about melody either if you have the balls to say that. That riff is very melodic and that isn't coming from a drummer, it is coming from a musician.
@austinfailz dude you suck balls, just for saying that. this is alexi fuckin laiho, respect him fuckin jerk. and btw this is an awesome solo... im a better musician than you and im not a douche.
yeah, the vibrato is a little off, but I love this solo, alexi is amazing, he is like the rhandy rhoads or the eddie van halen of his generation, also I don't like at all his tone in this video, it sound so thin, maybhe beacause he is playing at low volumes or something like that
@ThrashMetalSonata Rhandy Rhoads or the Eddie VAn halen of his generation ? Are YOU NUTS? That's totally not true. Alexis laiho is good but NOT THAT good.
@DarkAura050 Alexis Laiho would be nothing if those 2 didn't exist. Your opinion is totaly biased. (At least EVH is GOOD live, not really the case of Alexis laiho.)
I once heard this alexi fellow say that everyone is still trying to be yngwie I hope he includes himself in th is statement NEVER DIS THE MASTER!!!! yngwie rules!!!
There's a difference between bending and vibrato, guys. He's bending. Vibrato is like... shaking your hand. Like. Moving your finger across the fret (but remaining on the fret) is an exaggerated vibrato.
@joakoz01928374650192 nah, the solo is too short. sure, it's fast and difficult to play, but so is solo to kissing the shadows which is also a lot longer. also, i'm not very good at sweeping very cleanly making that part of the solo sound like crap when i play it :p
@Archeosity i think its pretty cool. it couldnt be better for this solo... what do u want? that slower smooth rock vibrato for every riff and lead? huh... he made the solo and he made it the way he thinks it sounds best... when i play this solo i emulate that vibrato cos thats the way it is.
@Archeosity yeah but bearing in mind its easy to slow down a lead or solo, but then slowing down the vibrato whilst playing them slow is pre hard, it sounds ok up to speed
@Archeosity Yeah, I mean, you CAN do a few cool things with a tremolo... But as a guitarist, I prefer a non trem + locking tuners to even an original floyd.
