Ninjalexi Laiho - Children Of Bodom Solo Tutorial

This video was literally made for an Alexi Laiho impersonation contest hosted by metalinjection.net in 2009. If you tell me to get my own personality and to stop acting like Alexi, I suppose you cannot read. No, I do not dress or act this way during my day to day activities, I am simply a CoB fan and was trying to win a guitar, as the contest was an "impersonation contest" (implying I literally impersonate Alexi, I don't know how I can make that any clearer). Thank you.

If you're wondering why I'm saying the things I am (about Blooddrunk album) in the intro, watch this video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ0PqTiZl4A and it'll make more sense.

This video is probably a bit late seeing as how CoB's new album is coming out in March this year, but I figure that those of you wanting to learn Bodom solos could benefit from this as I slow each lick I play down to 50% (with no backing track) for you to very clearly see and hear how I play them.

Songs:
-Young Guitar intro Cover
-Blooddrunk solo
-Angels Don't Kill solo
-Deadnight Warrior intro lick

Things used:
-LTD Alexi-600 SE
-EMG HZ-4 pickup
-Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom strings
-Marshall JCM600
-Digitech Death Metal Distortion Pedal
-Gibson SG Custom 1972 (for display purposes)
-Denim jacket that I bought for about 5 dollars from I forgot where
-various costume and dressup material from Walmart, my local mall, and other random places.
-Lots of sweat through that wig and bandana, lawl

***Thanks to my dad for the help mic'ing/recording/editing this video back in 2009! We were really busy (had to get going to a family reunion) the night recording all this.

@hatecrewdeath666 Thanks. Transcribed by ear. I play the Deadnight riff a little differently than Alexi does, but it's how I like it =p These guitars still pop up on ebay every now and then, they're usually about $600-650 USD used.

@YummyShorty Sadly some guy who mimed Alexi's guitar playing with a webcam video ended up winning >_<
