I'm a huge Satriani fan, but Alexi completely destroys him in terms of technical prowess. But Satch plays a slower, more mellow style because that's what he likes to play. Either way, it's ridiculous to compare the two, they are obviously playing very different styles.
Alexi Laiho is my idol when it comes to playing guitar :P
I play guitar for 3 years now, but I can't do their solo's yet. I'm trying, and I can do all rhythm parts, but some solo's are still too hard. Does anyone know good exercises to practise speed? cause that's the only thing i'm still lacking...
@Rabje1234 haha man, that's exactly my problem. I manage to play a few solos but his "speed runs" are too fast for me. All I do is getting pissed about it :D and the old "start slowly get faster"
@Rabje1234 just take a pentatonic scale on one string, then play secuensis(if i write that word right, cause english is not my native languege(another wrong word)) with tremolo picking. start slow and then build up speed
@Rabje1234 I've been playing guitar for uhm 3-4 years myself but take things slowly,when your practising try to alternate pick and count to for and when youwant to speed it up try to get two notes per beat like count to one and then play two notes, build it up regularely. I can play fast but not tight and my solos sounds shitty :P well before soloing it's good to have the rythm there.
@Rabje1234 first of all play slowly as everyone told you to. than start doing exercises: make up ways to go up and down a scale, up and down arpeggios and create small runs. try to play it flawless and if you can do it insist. than speed it up a little bit till u can play it flawless once again and so on. if theres something you're being great at and something u're being the worst at its pointless to insist on convincing yourself you're good and keep playing what you already can easyly
@tasfa10 insist on what you cant play (but dont jump to extremely technical stuff). plus i think u should start playing something else than bodom. this is not for everyone to throw rocks on me, but bodom isnt that hard to play. if you start playing jason becker, malmsteen, gilbert and even other melo/progressive death bands stuff such as obscura and necrophagist one day when you go back to bodom you'll laugh at yourself for having seen this as extremely hard stuff. its frustranting but worth it
everyone should understand that the only reason that people dislike very good videos is cause they have no life and want to get attention (same for hate comments)
@foxman123456789 Lol you're an idiot, no shit he's using different guitars, its a 4 minute video of Alexi playing solos rofl... not a 4 minute long solo. His crossover screens are even ultra obvious like the page breaking up into parts, hes not trying to make it seem like 1 solo retard rofl
ya fuckin ass... COB started as a neo classical metal band... and his solos were definetly inspired from the classical music... if the classical music doesnt have a point of destination, then ure an asshole :D
@MrGuitarman244 you're a faggot man, look at all your recent activity, it's just you going to certain videos and saying how shit they are? Look at shit you actually like you fuckhead.
@blayze101 maybe i like all this stuff maybe, just maybe i enjoy pissing people off on youtube, or maybe if it what i say really upsets you, then its true because if it wasnt then you wouldnt care
@MrGuitarman244 lol you're not pissing anyone off, you're just making a fucking idiot out of yourself and people cant help but point that out. get a life, hah
@blayze101 if that were so true then why do u care to say anything
i dont believe for a second that i need to get a life but i think it is u who needs to get a life
if u feel the need to insult me when i say what i want then it obviously pisses u off if u didnt say anything then i wouldnt reply, but suit yourself if anyone could look at this at a neutral side i think they would call u the fucking idiot
Your a fucking retard. honestly i've been a bodom fan for years.. Heard every song 3000 times and Understand Alexi's guitar palying and feeling. Alexi has lots of neoclassical shredding experiance as heard on Hatebreeder. Just listin more and more. Dont listin to are you dead yet. thats shit. Listin to the song Wraith Within, Everytime i Die. and even look up some sinergy (alexi is the lead guitarist)
in my opinion, alexi and van halen are the best guitarists of their respective genres. yes, alexi is more metal than van halen, but i only say this because i don't think of van halen as metal.
alexi is my hero but saying he has surpassed eddie van halen now ur just retarded no one in life will ever do what eddie van halen did for metal guitar and guitar in general
