Alexi Laiho Golden Gods Awards Best Shredder 2008

[TheEduki]

He's so beautiful...... ^_^

[mrmarilynmansooon]

love it

[prioryy]

he deserves better,

i bet a few hours later he throwed that thing out of his car window...

[metallicalover284]

what song did he get it for again?

[Laiholover7948]

may dimebag smile upon you, wildchild :) \m/ keep it up man! COBHC!!!!!

[jslim39]

Wow that dumb Gwar dude ruins the award he sounds like a possessed hippo on crack

[aquaagu2]

@jslim39 Dumb? GTFO.

[MrSecret997]

It's funny how Alexi keeps calling Gwar man ^^

[RandomMetalGuy666]

i dont think alexi should have to show up to these things...they should just mail him th dimebag shredder award (R.I.P dime)

[SheenaAlexis]

@primalsilence91 wow ur a fuckin dick just because i am a chick doesnt mean i know nothing about music Ive been listening to Bodom for 9 and a half years seen them 8 times and saw them again in Halifax the day before yesterday and talked to them again and i have lots of pics to prove it i wouldnt lie about something so fucking stupid

[SheenaAlexis]

my god that band is fun to drink with....craziest bus ive ever been on ahahaha....see yas in july :)

[dimebagdarrellftw]

HELLYEAH! Alexi whoops all new guitarist in the face with big razorback

[dudemaister96]

he's overrated

[AriesBG]

@dudemaister96 Yeah, when you can play as him then you are premissed to talk. Till that moment shut your fucking mouth and back to cry on mummy's shoulder.

[dudemaister96]

@AriesBG Wow calm down dude. I didn't say that im better or that he sucks. I give Alexi a lot of credit (cos he's finnish and plays guitar alot better than me),but I just don't get all the fuzz about him. He's really good but not the greatest person to ever walk on this planet. He's won like every metal guitarist award and there are other guitar players too. My oppinion is that he's overrated and if you disagree that's fine and its kinda funny that my 2 words made you angry :D

[Kronoze3]

@dudemaister96 did u win a golden gods award.. no now stfu troll

[dudemaister96]

@Kronoze3 yeah.. Im the troll here

[metalmusician1991]

Alexi is one of my biggest influences in guitar playing! He deserves this!

[JamaJet19]

alexi is awesome... but the best shredder is micheal angelo batio

[blacklegionairsoft1]

@JamaJet19

Eh.........

[twilightv0id]

Dave Brockie + Alexi Laiho = WIN... 

[dreadlockddamnation]

@blndsk4 dude did you just call alexi a girl???...............epic fail hahahaha hate to break it to ya she is a he

[blndsk4]

@dreadlockddamnation aw fuck, are you serious? D:

[blndsk4]

alexi is one of the best female guitarists, but she still sucks compared to most dudes in the genre. best shredder '08? how about michael romeo? or jeff loomis? or jari? all way better than alexi "no vibrato" laiho.

[left4shred]

@blndsk4 hey fag stop leaving these fucked up comments on videos just cause none of the guitarist who you think are "great" didn't win it. Stop trolling and do something more productive or dont do anything at all. Moron.

[blndsk4]

@left4shred hey fag, how about you stop calling me a fag and a moron and do something productive with your life like playing world of warcraft.

[youngb1ood]

@blndsk4 people are ignorant to say anyone is better than jeff loomis. even dimebag doesnt measure up.

[TylerFknMetal]

lmfao thaaaaat's my kind of awards ceremony

[guitarshredder2364]

no chuck shuldiner is looking down and smileing they need t have a chuck award no offense to pantera fanboys but i think dimebag is a little overated dnt get me wrong dimebag is a super awesome player but chuck is the greatest player who ever lived and walked this earth and alexi ftw

[gnralex1987]

Gwar my ass

[childofbodom626]

FUCK GWAR! lol

[EsoterikSurgery]

GWAR guys are douchebags

[Jackstock500]

CoB is by far my favorite heavy metal band

[SirHoller]

Alexi fucking rules.. .long live COB!!!!!!!!!

[Psychoguy99]

nice

[dieandgoaway]

haha alexi is always drinking even in awards

[Milner871]

i dunno how anyone can think that was phill, its obviously oderous - who else wears a mask like that and has the same sense of humour, a brilliant presentor as usual. And no one else deserves the award like Alexi.

[Cinis16]

It was behind apple bees! That's how much everyone hates metal now a days

fucken queers huh?

[KhanJune87]

Don't talk shit about GWAR fags, anybody who knows anything about them knows their not about making great music like COB but pure entertainment!!!!

[Fraeg]

that is most definately Phil's voice

[wenser13]

Actually I wasnt watching the video. I was in another tab, I thought it sound like Zakk Wylde if you ask me.

[BringerOfTruth123]

@fraeg. no that is definitely oderus from gwar. Anyone who has heard gwars music or seen them five times, like myself, know that that's exactly how he sounds.

[rooster89666]

that was pretty cool : )

[Tettuli]

i hate "alexi is hot" comments. sounds emo

[wart24]

@Tettuli amen.

[mpalin11]

Alexi is so cute, he looks a little bit confused :D

[Bobcat1911]

I'm pretty sure that's Alexi's friend and fellow shredder, Zakk Wylde.

[kjn5991]

wait, isnt that Phil Anselmo? it sounds like him....

[redheadhistorian]

no. A million tiems no. I don't think Dime's ole lady would get that close to Phil. I think if she even thought that Phil was inside a GWAR costume and up there, she wouldnt show and she wouldnt allow the Dime Shred award to be touched by him.

[vintagewars]

@kjn5991 Hahahha That is Oderous, from GWAR!!!!!!!

[kjn5991]

i dont follow GWAR. i thought he was Phil because he sounds like Phil and Phil also used some kind of demon mask in some gigs.

[Giwrgoskol]

Yes it was Phil.

[kjn5991]

is that sarcasm or do you really mean it?

[Giwrgoskol]

I really mean it.

[Bodomistic08]

lolz. Alexi probably thinking " yea,yea,yea i know can i just get this thing and get the fuck out of here!?"

[DreamerLT]

Oh come on guys, thats good that hes doing that with a sence of little humor. I wouldnt like to see Corpsegrinder up there as anouncer.. Dont take it too serious.

[ericgeving]

He had to have his beer :P

[AriesBG]

@ericgeving Always

[THEHIPPO666]

thats just the way gwar do it, yer it was pretty gay buy what can ya do

[Dkatz6923]

yeh,that gwar guy is a total douche...some of the shit he said was kinda funny,but the thing about dime was like,100% irrelevant...+ gwar is a lame band anyway...why would he be the announcer/host/whatever?

[fighticewithice]

yeah for real that guy acted like such a cocksucker

[EmethBehoth]

That guy...thing...that's just embarrassing. He should show a little bit of respect and class while he's presenting an award...not that that will happen anytime soon i'm sure.

[thygodofrock190]

Wow people make such a big deal about him calling Alexi Alex... I saw a commercial thing where Alexi CALLS HIMSELF ALEX. Roll that in your joint and smoke it.

[BATJComixCompany]

@thygodofrock190 exactly xD, alexi IS the finnish version of the name alex xD

[RandomMetalGuy666]

@thygodofrock190 never!

[Wrathbringer2010]

that gwar dude messed it all up.......

[UniversalBIGB123]

DAMN Alexi Laiho is So Damn Gangsta Hes All Like Naww man i aint down with that shit HA

[guitargod156]

the dimebag thing was kinda gay...

and calling him alex is just...

gah...

he doesn't even deserve the shit i have to say to him.

:)

[militaryplice]

dude the only gay thing about this is gwar, i cant stand gwar and i know they are joke band , but dimes good

[guitargod156]

well yea dime is good. but its just kinda gay that he said that. is he a member of gwar? i've never listened to their stuff and i dunno who is in the band

[lechestrike]

lol gwar

[jefffhardy]

DIMEBAG! DIMEBAG!

[nighthorseman85]

Alex from Children of Bodom, haha, moron!!!

[Valoluver666]

ALEX LAIHO! roflroflroflrofl

If I was Alexi, i'd kick his ass for saying that. rofl

[aldehei]

Love Alexi! <3

[cob215]

alexi is the best

[mrbrian69]

theres not a chance that a rythem gutirast (hetfield) is the best

[diabeticmonkey]

Oderus urungus can say anything he wants becuase hes just gonna kill us all anyway.

[RetroBasement]

alex lol

[xxsladedethxx]

fuck gwar they fuckin suck they should b a circus act,alexi kicks the shit out of that poser of a band.u could tell hes hateing on alexi cuz he knows hes better then his ass an wishes he was alexi. no arguments please, i know i stand correct.

[HammersmashedTaco]

your a dum faggot

[PelicanGreed]

haha dude, sorry for trampeling on your little plea, but GWAR are what they are, just as you "stand correct" in your own mind. And I think he was merely poking fun at Alexi.

[tart9]

since YOUR the real retard here u obviously didnt no that GWAR is a joke band

[benmergare]

it is the singer of G.W.A.R?

[Shirobero]

What? Where?

He's the Lead Guitar and Vocals from COBHC

[helloredpanda]

It's so funny, Alexi is always so chill. The announcer is being like, a total spaz and he's just like ok. At the end, grabs his award and takes a swig of beer. hahaha xD

[Duhjlimos]

Alexi Laiho is an amazing guitarist. And in my opinion, he is the best guitarist in Death Metal at the moment.

[cwill1996]

i disagree, i still think that Pat O'Brien of "cannibal corpse" is btter. but, Alexi's pretty close to breaking that thin line between him and pat.

[patrickbateman7]

totally different styles man , you really can't compare them , alexi is Melodic death metal which has a strong basis in progressive or neo classical, nothing like cannibal corpse , they're both good though

[000DarkAle92000]

Agreed, he's really great. Btw is that Corey Taylor in the Satan Costume? He sounds exactly like him lol

[jhfhkhkhkhgffdfds]

where did you see a satan costume in this video?

[000DarkAle92000]

Sorry I meant the demon costume, not satan.

[jhfhkhkhkhgffdfds]

by the demon costume i am going to assume you are talking about Oderus Urungus (Dave Brockie)

[000DarkAle92000]

Yeah, I didn't know him...thanks for clearing that out for me :)

[chillichomper]

@Duhjlimos Per Nilsson of scar symetry chews him up for breakfast and spits him out.

[ryankuisti]

@chillichomper haha guitarist knowledge FAIL

[chillichomper]

@ryankuisti Personally I think keene is not all that. Muhammed is very good but I think Rob Jarzombek is better. And if you'd listen to per nilsson you'd know he's also alot better than alexi.

Oh. BTW. What knowledge did u offer ryankuisti? I think ur the only failure here!

[ryankuisti]

@chillichomper ya ur right that i didnt offer any knowledge. im saying keene is a genius in the riff aspect. muhammed is just a fucking ripper (who sings at the same time might i add) and i love scar symmetry to death dude. but theyre guitar work is really simple on most of their songs. plus have you seen like alexis compositions in his videos. like wen he covers the waltari song "move" or the vivaldi 4 seasons summer? those are incredible. he is a musical genius, and hes only like 30.

[chillichomper]

@ryankuisti Cover vivaldi? Have you every heard of yngwie malmsteen? This is OOOOOOOLLLLLLDDD news. Has alexi EVER written his own classical piece? Covering a piece doesn't count. (Ummmm I can't hear you!) crickets chirping.....

Ahem. Don't go there man. Listen to SymphonyX is you want to hear "compositions" and that fucker can kill on guitar too.

Look we're never gonna agree so I'll say this... Alexi is very talented but I think u and I consider different things when talent is concerned peace

[ryankuisti]

@chillichomper ya good plan. thanks for not being a total cocksucker like most ppl on youtube

[chillichomper]

@ryankuisti Well I am glad we can both be partial cocksuckers. lmao

[COBfan1996]

@chillichomper before judging listen northern comfort (1:20 and forward) and kissing the shadows (2:05 and forward) melody,lead -guitar and singing at the same time. beat that :) or well, he always plays melody,lead -guitar, but still... laiho i mean of course

[00Orbit00]

@Duhjlimos

LOL. Children of Bodom is NOT death metal. Even if they were, Alexi Laihio would still not be the best guitarist in death metal, that would be Muhammed Suicmez for sure.

[DarkLight173]

@00Orbit00 CoB is Melodic Death Metal sooo... Death 2?;P

[ryankuisti]

@Duhjlimos but children of bodom isnt really death metal. i think hes just the best in music in general!!! but michael keene and muhammed sucimez are close seconds.

[kshay003]

@Duhjlimos no doubt!

[dAziks]

@Duhjlimos Alexi doesnt play death metal. If you meant melodic death metal, you should mention "melodic", because both genres got huge difference between each other.

[kjn5991]

@Duhjlimos actually CoB is Extreme Metal

[Rinkenshin]

@kjn5991 I reckon they're more melodeath. And alexi says that they're just metal, no tags. So, um... shut the flying fuck up?

[hevimetal88]

@Duhjlimos best guitarist in DEATH metal???

[GuyNamedCarl]

@hevimetal88 lol Melodic Death Metal.

[hevimetal88]

@GuyNamedCarl maybe back in the day he could have been called a MELODIC death metal guitarist and there is a big difference in melodic death and death. Really big difference. Name me a song after trashed lost & strungout album where you find any aspects of death metal? now days its more like melodic speed/trash/power metal. I think he is one of the best guitarist all of metal but in death metal. He doesnt go even near that genre anymore in his music and not even Melodic death its something else.

[GuyNamedCarl]

@hevimetal88 That's why I said Melodic Death Metal. Melodic Death Metal incorporates keyboards and harsh screams among clean harmonies and other things. CoB definitely fits the bill.

[garofalo92]

well for metal their amung the best. but alexi is knowere near the top 10 best of overall greatest guitarest's in history

[skatelaresistance]

so sick that oteris was hosting this

[jimmycrackcorn1981]

lol metal is so gay all heavy metal guitarists are fags other than death metal

[hoang1428]

Wat if....Wat IF alexi doesn't know who Dimebag is and he goes "dimebag???"

Im just saying

so dont go all " fuck you man fuck you Dime was the greatest and u disrepect hiim?" haha

[fishNguitars]

good job, alex.. LOLS

alexi deserves that award.

[lman2004]

ALEX FROM CHILDREN OF BODOM... wtf...

[Moomooyourmom]

Did he call him Alex?

LOL

[pure0hatred]

yea lol eitha he confused or dosnt even kne his name or he is :p lol

[theshow2k8]

A lot of people call him Alex

Alexi -Alex...it's the same.

[wildchild169]

ahaha lets do some blow, oh i aint down with that...oh me neither... haha that guys hilarious

[wildchild169]

yea straight up alexi should win it every year, he started off playin how he does and all of his solos are fuckin intense and i love playin them on guitar, i agree with agnes135 mick tompson and slipknot are shit

[bosomo195]

fuck the style look how he plays!!!

[5822391]

GWARRRRRR  FUCK YA

[HammersmashedTaco]

FUCKING FUCK YAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

[zachyp89]

alexi pronounces it alek. he should get this award every year, he's probly the best shredder in the current metal scene

[revolverhades23]

i disagree hes great and i like him but i think mick tompson or corey from trivium

[Agnes135]

Mick Tompson and Slipknot are fucking shite

[guitarhero3434]

did he just call alexi alex

[guitarslayer93]

did anyone else notice that he called him alex?

[Pisineenfles]

i dont know anything about this "event", but that dude from CoB is just awesome! look at him :P, though guy ! xD

[MuthaBreed]

his name is Alexi Laiho =]

[enl33tment]

teitr all awesome XD

[HERE5JOHNNY]

kirk is one crzy motherfucker!

[HERE5JOHNNY]

totally!

[xXRoflmeowXx]

i wud sat alexi is amazin' - n probs 1 of my fav guitarist, but Dime is my idol - he knew how 2 play! James Hetfield is betta than Kirk i'd say, and GWAR is awesome 2! and Michael Angelo Batio all i have 2 say is dame! hehe =)

[HoobtheNoob]

James Hetfield can barely alternate pick

[xXRoflmeowXx]

yet he can create some awesome music -

i don;t see you with multiple albums =P

James Hetfield is actually an awesome guitarist

[HoobtheNoob]

don't get me wrong i love Metallica and Hetfield is awesome he just can't or at least doesn't alternate pick xD although how he manages to sing and keep up the rhythms they do is beyond me, e.g. creeping death

\m/

[bobert3152]

what the fuck are you talking about buddy?

James Hetfield is no Alexi, but hes still a damn fine guitarist. Just cause Metallica isn't as technical as most metal bands are, doesn't mean they completely suck at playing their instruments...different style calls for different riffing

[HoobtheNoob]

chill i just said i think Metallica are awesome who says i said they suck at their instruments? and tbh i don't care about technical skill in terms of song writing and theyv written awesome music - i think you misunderstood my opinion xD

[enl33tment]

i respectfully disagree. micheal angelo batio, yngwie malmsteen, steve vai. those are best shredders eva

[c4bb4g3]

you seriously got thumbs down for that? people are clueless...

[enl33tment]

its not their fault, they just dont have the same mainstream definition as others do. they hear the things as a common, non-musican, metal head. were as, if u are a musician, you probably will know about the likes of paul gilbert and ygwie malmsteen

[c4bb4g3]

yeah, I know. it just irritates me when mainstream "metalheads" are all like "MICK THOMSON'S AMAZING!!!!!!!!" and I mention Alex Skolnick, Muhammad Suicmez, Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Chuck Shuldiner, etc. etc. and all I get are blank stares or "who's that? derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..."

people in the past have shredded the headstocks off of today's popular "shredders" and some today continue to do so. I can't interact with mallcore metalheads because I just end up getting mad

[enl33tment]

yesh, its a sad, sad truth T.T o well, atleast shred is coming back

[invis19]

I completely...fucking agree

[jerwinrocks]

gwar!

[belowtheforgotten]

disturbed sucks?! ...james or kirk from metallica would out shred his ass anyday fucking shit

[belowtheforgotten]

ugh....what about kirk hammet and james ive heard other solos own and who teh fuck thinks disturbeds guitarist is the best shredar? wtf

[rrwwe]

wreckage06.....i strongly disagree......hes amazing but not the best...dan donnegan lol...wtf..but alexi is relli good, or was, latley hes been kinda sloppy but some days are better then others

[Drogba2108]

Roope Rapes aahahha *Badang TSCCHHH xD*

[firesoftheempyrean]

I don't think Alexi snorts and the suggestion sort of caught him off guard. He's smart enough to know he can't play if he's like a Lohan.

[gnarkillrules4]

i think oderus old mask was better

[ShawnChrisLeoSmithy]

the announcer sounds like phil anselmo

[belowtheforgotten]

doped out ?

[SicMaggotSivart]

Drinking after the award is given. THANK YOU thats metal

[fososszar]

Alexi rocks :D

[GeneralffeJ]

Fuckin Oderus ^_^

Excellent, we'll see you at the after party and we'll do some blow.

Works for me, man

Oh we'll do it up here then, you got any?

The solo from Hate Crew Deathroll would've been nice, but Trashed, Lost, & Strung Out is pretty brutal.

[jesterbert]

where is friedman , gilbert , cooley , petrucci , buckethead??????????

[imametalhead666]

fuck those guys alexi owns

although i must say im a huge rusty fan

[MrMuttly210]

who was nominated

[mrbrian69]

yea they suck lol ...thats why he just got an wward for shredding balls bring me the horizon is gay 420 is a fuckin joke and so are seen kids like you ... cob rulllls!!!!!! \m/ \m/

[BringMeTheHorizon420]

uhm no, i dont give a shit, european black metal sounds like shit and it never sounds clean, sounds like shiiiiiiiiiiit, cob is not good, i dont like bring me the horizon, i like there name, and 420 isnt a joke to me, i dont really care what you think about smoking pot. smoking weed is very relaxing and i also take it medically. some black metal is okay, but i dot like the screming and its too slow. so whatever buddy, go slow dance with your gothic friends, id rather mosh thank you.

[BringMeTheHorizon420]

also, sorry to say there buddy, bmth is accually up for an award so i dont beleive they suck? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[richslayerbc08]

what the fuck does 420 have anything to do with this???
