  • Mark Morton cant get even close to Alexi. Its a fact!

  • both of my favorites but morton is my favorite for sure.. alexi is sick but morton is a well rounded musician and alexi has said he prefers to stick to his style he plays while morton will play blues jazz metal classical guitar etc... no offense t oalexi but morton has my vote for better guiarist plus ill be honest lamb of god i love alot more then COB but i like em both alot jus lambo is my all time favorite band ever!!! LAMBOFBODOM!!!

  • @BMBskater4life Morton knows as much about Jazz as you do, seriously Jazz? Do you even know what the fuck jazz is? Look, neither Alexi or Morton are players anywhere near the caliber of like an Alan Holdsworth or Ron Jarzombek but Alexi is at least good at keeping a fairly simple style fresh.

  • @Razzor781 Yeah you're not smart nor have you brought up anything germaine to the conversation. All Morton does are those shitty sludgy riffs that Pantera already did, and those shitty box pattern solos that anyone can do. Alexi actually wrote tight riffs that bring something new to the metal scene and doesn't do those three note per string scales that have been beaten to fucking death.

  • @HurricaneTBag If you think they're easy and anyone could do them, then upload a video of yourself covering some of Mark's solos.

  • @Razzor781 Too lazy (don't have the spare time) to transcribe his solos, get a video camera, and record his stuff. I will say this, practice triplets for 30 minutes a day with a metronome and in six months you'll be able to play his stuff. It's not like he's Alan Holdsworth or anything.

  • @HurricaneTBag o and when mortons not playing LOG he gets down with jazz and blues and all kinds of versatile music.. you dipshit

  • @BMBskater4life He'll play blues and country licks but the guy can't add an outside note to save his life, that's what I mean by playing the genre. Anyone can learn a lick in a certain style very few players can actually make music in a style, let alone use all 12 tones in a certain style of music. Morton definitely cannot do those things. Also you don't even know what Jazz is, so you shouldn't even be bringing that up.

  • Mate!! They are two ofthe best frickin guitarish in the metal scene! Compare the? Sure!!! Theyll stand right at the same level!! Both kickass!!

  • Why comparing only the solos ? Guitar (and metal) is far more than that.

  • Idk why everyone is arguing about the fans of the music and who buys what from where it's fun to be open minded, listen to both bands, and accept that they are both good. I listen and love both bands and i don't buy shit from hot topic and am not a kid i just love heavy music and love both bands

  • Alexi is more techique and faster...

  • My stance "LoG, is shitty generic mall buttmetal that's for faggots that shop at Hot Topic" your response: "NO U," please. You really can't hate New Metallica, which I'm sure you do, and use the fact that Metallica toured with LoG as evidence that they're awesome. Metallica's brought along a lot of shitty bands, Godsmack, Limp Bizkit, and Linkin Park, please. LoG is basically Black Veil Brides without the gay makeup and outfits. I respect that, at least they appear on stage as they are IRL.

  • @HurricaneTBag

    dude if i ever met you id brake your face for talkin shit bout lamb of god.. you basically are callin me a faggot and ill crack your face open and leave you on the pavement bleeding out you fucking faggot.. yeah your the faggot bitch and i hope you choke on one of your dicks you suck daily.. die and ill be glad to shit on your tombstone and piss on your grave daily bitch.. hatin ass muthafucka.. i would honestly hurt you if i could cuz log is the shit.. u just suck

  • @HurricaneTBag

    dude if i ever met you id brake your face for talkin shit bout lamb of god.. you basically are callin me a faggot and ill crack your face open and leave you on the pavement bleeding out you fucking faggot.. yeah your the faggot bitch and i hope you choke on one of your dicks you suck daily.. die and ill be glad to shit on your tombstone and piss on your grave daily bitch.. hatin ass muthafucka.. i would honestly hurt you if i could cuz log is the shit..

  • @BMBskater4life As often as you say faggot, I'm guessing you've got some pretty huge issues with your own sexuality. Is that why you and your fellow gays enjoy Lamb of God's music so much?

  • @HurricaneTBag

    dude you like to talk alot of shit on a keyboard but if you were standing in front of me youd end up with a broken jaw no teeth and laying in your own puddle of blood and eat threw a fucking straw and maybe then youd realize when to keep your mouth shut

  • @BMBskater4life Lrn2spell, dipshit. Besides, there's videos of you on the internet, I know what you look like...the tough guy act doesn't work, go back to your lame skating hobby and get back to repressing your gay side.

  • now let's compare the rhy guitar styles of LOG and Bodom .....hmm ....that's like a Ferrari to a Ford respectively!

  • Morton by a landslide ....Alexi is great but that 80s neo classical stuff gets tired fast ....Morton's a better muscian, more tastefull and has better tone easy.

  • Is this even a contest? Alexi destroys Morton.

  • @HurricaneTBag this is a joke right?

  • @yaxowx The comparison? Yes. You shouldn't place a guitarist with talent like Alexi against a hack like Morton.

  • @HurricaneTBag It's obvious that you're just dick riding alexi cause anyone that is a Metal fan knows that Mark Morton is a bad ass guitarist. Mark makes awesome riffs and awesome solos that are not included in this video. Lamb Of God shits on COB, just saying.

  • @Razzor781 Lamb of God is basically what wal-mart shoppers and kids why buy clothes from Hot Topic think qualifies as good music. Alexi is a front man, the main songwriter, and a sick guitarist. Frankly, Alexi takes shits that are more talented than Mark Morton. I'd rather listen to Slipknot or even Avenged Sevenfold than LoG, TBH.

  • @HurricaneTBag Are you trying to troll or just plain retarded? Slipknot and Avenge Sevenfold are CRAP. Lamb Of God shits on COB, quit hating dude. Lamb Of God is like the modern Pantera, COB is for stupid teenagers with acne.

  • @Razzor781 Funny, I've never met a LoG fan that wasn't some needle dicked 110 faggot or some great big neckbeard with pock marks, either way LoG fans fuck tons of fat chicks. If you like LoG, basically you lose the right to shit on other bands' fanbases. Slipknot and A7X are teh sellouts with the lamers fanbazes!!! LoG, on the other hand...total legit underground A number 1 legit tr00 metal fans! Please, modern Pantera? HAH! That's a bigger misstatement than calling Slipknot the modern Death.

  • @HurricaneTBag Are you so mad that you have to make up stories? What I'm saying comes from a Metal/Rock fan in general, not an ass kissing faggot like you. I don't kiss asses. If it's good I give it respect/credit and if it's crap then I don't. You're arguments are pathetic with nothing to back them up. I mean alexi plays good, some of his solos are quite enjoyable I guess if you're bored as fuck. But by saying LOG sucks you prove to be a dumb fuck, OR to not be a fan of Metal

  • @Razzor781 I like how you went into this long faggoty soliloquy into how you're not a faggot, CSB. You mention my arguments have no substance, but you just mention how much you enjoy LoG and cock. Basically the argument is this: if you like LoG you get your favorite bands from shirts you see at Hot Topic. Go back to listening to Emmure or whatever other buttmetal you and your fellow gays listen to Also learn the difference between "you're" and "your," dipshit.

  • @HurricaneTBag You're MAD! Haha! Trust me I know the difference but this is not the fucking spelling bee! If it was then I would mark you down for using words like "dipshit", cause that's not exactly a word. I like bands like Megadeth, Pantera, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Testament, OLD Metallica, BLS, AND LOG! I wonder why a band like Metallica would tour with Lamb Of God? Idk, maybe because LOG fucking kicks ass! I feel a bit dumb for arguing with a dumb fuck that doesnt know about Metal.

  • @Razzor781 I like how the first thing you pointed out was you being butthurt over you being a fucking idiot. You can't just namedrop the biggest metal bands ever to justify liking a shitty metal band like LoG, it doesn't work that way. LoG is the tamest most formulamatic metal band I've heard in a while. You may as well be listening to BFMV. Go back to jerking off to expansion videos or listen to Staind or some other midwestern buttmetal.

  • @HurricaneTBag I mention some of the greatest Metal bands, and the fact that they're great is what makes me like them. COB is not great, or are they? You're just mad cause you have no comeback to my comments. You just say some stupid shit that has nothing to do with this conversation. So if LOG is shitty, then why would Metallica tour with them? Come on dude you can't be serious with your lame comebacks. You're a pathetic mofo, here on youtube and in life as well. A condom was "Set To Fail".xD

  • Comment removed

  • @HurricaneTBag Dude just shut the fuck up. I mean look at the top comments. Most people prefer Mark Morton. you're a dumb ass, I've never even been to hot topic and never will. Doesn't alexi shop at hot topic? Or where does he buy his black finger nail polish and eyeliner?

  • @Razzor781 Right, most people believe it so therefore it's true. Most people think John Mayer is a better player than Tosin Abasi, I guess that makes it true too. I dunno, last time I checked Alexi picks up his eye liner and nail polish from your mother's dresser when he gets done fucking her.

  • @HurricaneTBag You're just mad and thats why you have to say stupid shit like mom jokes that only a dumb kid would say. Quit being an internet troll. I know that you're just a geek fag with no life and thats why you need to go on YouTube and try to win your little arguments which make you feel better about yourself. You're just a typical internet tough guy that talks stupid shit from the safety of your home. Get a life motherfucker!

  • @Razzor781 Well I'd tell you that LoG sucks to your face, and I'd wipe my ass with all their shitty merch that you've undoubtedly bought. I'm sure you'll undoubtedly bring up more ad hominem attacks rather than actually arguing Morton/Laiho. Alexi sings, shreds, and writes all of the music. His musical palet mis much more diverse than Morton's and his style is no where near as repetitive.

  • What a pair of Cunts!!!!!

  • Mark Morton - Better riffs

    Alexi Laiho - Better solos.

  • alexi god of guitar

  • mmmh the best is michael hedges. and i'm a big fan of alexi ahaha.

  • I have to say, i am a HUUUUUUUUGE Lamb of God Fan but i would say that Alexi is better. I mean dont just say that mark is the best just cuz Lamb of God is all you listen to.

  • mark morton.....not even a competition...

  • mark is easily a better rhythm guitarist, but alexi is much better at leads and solos

  • this one's tough.... mark morton has a much wider range of sounds, but alexi is just so fucking fast and clean. I'm gonna say mark wins cause he too can fly and just shred like nobody's business and alexi laiho can be pretty 1-dimensional most of the time. Besides, mark morton is A MILLION times better live than alexi

  • @tfw13 LOL if only alexi wasn't on a permadrunk hehe

  • Mark Wins just because of his beard come on guys

  • @MartyFriedmanRulez66 Haha I'm more for Alexi but I fuckin' love your comment!

  • @apocalypseplease19 You can't deny the beard :P

  • MARK MORTON TO THE HELL!!

  • MARK FUCKIN MORTON MAN

  • Alexi Laixo For me...

  • diferent styles, both are amazing guitarrist but i go with mark

  • You just introduced me to lots of new songs, thanks a bunch. They're both amazing guitarists, I can't pick

  • two great artists no two awesome artists why compare them it's like comparing apples with apples apples are delicious XD Just like the music of these two artists no need for comparing them because it makes no sense at all

  • Jezuz did you really have to do this to Mark. Fuck you who ever made this video

  • who the hell have made this comparison between these two guitarist fuck u to that guy

  • Most stupid comparison video I've ever seen.

  • Walk with me in hell's solo rapes all solos. :P

    You're comparing 2 different genres mate.

  • i think there both equally badass i luv both bands so i cant choose a side

  • While u guys bother voting or not Im just here to listen to some epic music o.o

  • These guys are my two absolute favorite guitar players, i'll never choose one over the other!

  • It's hard to compare such different styles as Melodic Death Metal and New Wave Of American Heavy metal. Besides, they have different strong areas. Alexi has his melodic solos and verses vs. the crazy heavy riffs and complex rithyms of Mark. Comparison in this case hangs on opinion.

  • Mick Thomson pawns all.

  • @hashimali72 Micks a pussy

  • @TheMorbidAsshole Mick thomsons a damn good guitarist

  • @KoRnFan1001 very underrated guitarists . .

  • @TheMorbidAsshole He is very underrated.

  • @hashimali72 umad?

  • Alexii!!!!!!

    

  • Alexi Laiho? thumbs up here

  • Mark Morton? thumbs up here

  • these two are keeping me going at life , also as i've read so far everyone agrees that they are both guitar gods

  • i love alexi but mark 100% becuase alexi always needs help from the keyboard

  • You can't really compare the two because they have different styles. Mark is a bluesy soloist as where Alexi is clearly a shredder and speedy type of soloist.

  • thing is, morton is a riffer, alexis is a emotionless soloist.

  • riffs: mark morton.

    solos and speed: alexi laiho

  • The alexi's "solo" in this video, aren't all from alexi!

    Mark Morton FTW!

  • @TheB0d0m Excuse me? And the video maker picked up pretty bad songs from cob... I mean not bad but the ones with not that impressive solo or such.

  • wtf?

    morton is 1000 times better

    god...

  • Chuck Norris wins!

  • meh, Alexi is more technically gifted but they're both incredible guitarists

  • i've heard bands playing perfect children of bodom but never perfect lamb of god!

    especially the guitar solos :) Mark \m/

  • this is an actually interesting comparasin, Alexi has speed, mark has the riffs, Mark has the band, but Alexi has the classical training... i would love to see this in RL :D

  • i know comparing arists is bullshit but i'd say mark morton is better in my opinion

  • alexi is gay..speed isnt everything

  • Chris Broderick wins every battle even if he is not included in the tittle

  • @brushedsquidAU chuck norris wins every battle

  • @brushedsquidAU fuckin oath!!

  • MARK WINS ! ! 

  • yo, there's always a winner in the battle bro...............n thts Mark Morton alright?......

  • both are great guitarists but play different genres. But if I have to choose, I'd choose Mark becauseI'm much more into Log than into Cob

  • i really don't think these two should be compared they are two COMPLETELY different genres and styles of guitar playing. i personally (like everyone else) prefer lamb if god over all.

  • Alexi is a better guitarist but Lamb of God is a better band!

  • you can compare but theres nothing to compare on they are the both WAS AND ARE AND WILL BE THE BEST METAL GODS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • lamb of god is a better band and morton is betterat rhythm and riff work but alexi ftw in this one

  • Alexi for Leads , and Mark for rythm

  • MARK MORTON!! yeahh LAMB OF FUCKIN GOD!

  • okay heres the deal, this children of bodem fag with the nail polish only plays speed solos that sound like shit and have no emotion. Marks got the emotion and more "old school" metal solos. Id prefer lamb of god over that high pitch shit any day. eww

  • Alexi Laiho has solos that are a more complex than Mark, but in all I would rather listen to Lamb of God.

  • But Who do you think is the better drummer of the two bands?!?! ADLER!!!!

  • There's no doubt that if you give these two a guitar they will do great things with it. I Vote for both of them. Im fans of both bands and they make incredible music! They are Metal Gods in my book.

  • morton.

  • Morton owns...Laiho sounds like a little whiny bitch by comparison

  • this is actually one of the better VS videos I have seen! I mean both players are amazing and they play different styles so it is way to hard to compare the two players because of the way that they play! I will say that out of all the solos Kissing the Shadows takes the cake!

  • well you also gotta realize that there are two guitarists in each band and both do solos, but both these guitarists are my all time two favorite guitarists, but have 2 different playing styles but in my own opinion alexi wins for the fact that he sings lead and plays lead, but either way both are great guitarists and should totaly go on tour together :D

  • Mark Morton \m/

  • Alexi wins bark mark is brutal as hell

  • you forget that COB is melodic death metal... and LOG is other genere :D

  • Mark Morton wins. 

  • MARK FUCKIN MORTON!

  • MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK!!!!!!!

  • MARKKK MORTONNNN IS THE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!! :D

  • mark is better than alexi in riffting..... and alexi is beter than mark in solos..... but i think over all alexi laiho is better.... but both guitarist are extremely awesome..

  • Comment removed

  • I love both guitarist, love both bands, Mark has better riffs and Alexi with way better solos and melodies...but i actually call this one a Draw, both have amazing talent and are capable of making Orgasm's in your ears :D THUMBS UP FOR METAL!!

  • Mark Morton to me has better riffs,and Alexi has better solos.Mark is my fav tho,because im more of a riff guitarist than a soloist.

  • Alexi is BETTER!! I think Alexi got better melody in his solos.

  • mark morton | alexi laiho. both are fucking great

  • MARK MORTON OFC !!!

  • i'm impressed by mark because he's like an american death metal guitarist, and they aren't usually so good.

  • alexi, by far, not because personal taste, but because hes got way more mastery over the guitar, tremolo skills, sweeping, more speed, the guys a fuckin beast

  • mark plays great riffs. as in omerta, redneck and walk with me in hell but. for the solos and shredding alll the credits goes to wild child. both o' them are the gods of metals and think they should not be compared at all. COB &LOG both rocks man....

    \m/..

  • MARK MORTON! :D

  • Morton!!!!

  • This is not comparable.. they are both fucking awsome and they are different styles...

  • Alexi is a melodic shredder Mark is more of a solid guitarist and is more heavier, both are good but none can match Justin Bieber nobody is good as him.

  • both are really great guitarists. but i love alexi's style more than mark "you know" :))

  • well alexi rights song serious melodies

    

  • its mark hands down

  • Morton is better, hands down

  • Alexi = Shred-oholic.

    Mark = Better allround player.

    That's MY opinion. I don't care if you disagree.

  • mark morton.. alexi just plays really fast and people take that as talent..if mark made a solo just as fast and any of alexis everyone would think mark is the best:P and mark could too.. but he wrathers technical or speed and shredding.

  • @doctorknockers6969 That's what makes Lamb of God unique, they concentrate more on technical stuff and how to make the music sound good, instead of just making it fast.

  • I love both Morton and Laiho, And am a massive fan of both bands, but i gotta give it to Alexi, Bodom is one of the bands that got me into metal! \m/

  • Oh no. Don't make me choose. PLEASE don't. lol I'd have to give it to Alexi. His solos stick with you. Not saying Mark's doesn't, but he's more known for his riffs.

  • Alexi Laiho

  • i just don't feel anything when I listen to COB. Morton/LOG puts my mind at ease but awakens it too they're just not even comparable LOG "wins" hands down IMO Laiho is fuckin way talented though let's be clear!

  • I don't think music should be compared. It's like comparing art.

  • @GameKid98

    I agree with you but notice wat the title says "Alexi Laiho Vs Mark Morton GUITAR BATTLE" Its comparing guitar skills and how creative they are. I think its shud be Mark got this as he does not only play metal but hes also into jazz,and classical guitar and metal sorta originated from Jazz.(I read it somewhere in wiki or some website)

  • @GameKid98 man music is art !!!!!!!

  • @medemon123 That was my point, dude,

  • @GameKid98 I agree: although the techniques used by Alexi are more impressive, Morton's playing stands up just as well.

  • @GameKid98 Because music IS art.

  • @GameKid98 it's exactley comparing art.... and is mainly a matter of taste ,so if there's the case to compare guitar skills, this kind of vids are just not something to take as a point of reference

  • @SCANDURA01 I think the whole layout with this video should be changed into a display of differnces between their styles, not put their skills or creative originality against one and another.

    Thanks for commenting :)

  • although alexi plays awesome but with whole band credit mark is better..........

  • Zakk Wylde the best !

  • mark morton. he's a better riffer, and he showed he can play at any speed he wants, which is all alexi laiho really has. he's talented, but it's generic, which is something that can't be said about morton.

  • Fredrik Åkesson wins

  • @Fasnfip FUCK YEAH OPETH!!!!!!

  • @nmillwater33 Agreed dude. So totally agreed

  • although i love both bands prefer L.O.G for songs but i also think alexi is one of the best guitar players of all time and is a cool person in general so ill give this to alexi

  • Mark is very good but when kissing the shadows solo starts , he is out of the game...!!

  • Ha! Haha!

    Too funny.. Alexi vs Morton..

    Hey guys, who would win?

    Rusty Cooley or Kurt Cobain?

  • MARK MORTON \m/

  • I gotta give this one to Alexi, His Solos are much more technical, and Original (IMO).

    Mark is a great guitarist nonetheless!,but gotta give it to Alexi man.

  • well...i love LOG and Mark to death but Alexi sings too so my vote goes to him

  • alexi all the way i like morton but alexi is a fucking beast

  • I think it's two styles far two different to be compared, and each solo is fucking awesome

  • MARK MORTON & LAMB OF GOD FTW :D!!<3

  • Mark morton!!!!

  • ALEXİ ^^

  • Mark wins cus of the beard guitar wise i think ther both sick

  • Na... Skwisgaar still wins.

  • Chris Broderick owns them...

  • god i hate when ppl just put clips in, i always think its a live vid. errr

  • to hard to chose 2 diff types of metal there both good at there genre's
