Children of Bodom / Alexi Laiho Tribute

Personal selection of COB awesome excerpts
Alexi Laiho 🇫🇮🎸 (1979 - 2020)

[@wenxuexianfeng]

Cried out in thrill listening to this incredible guy playing through all of these Alexi’s legacies in 2021..

[@metalphobos3632]

Rip to Alexi.

[@ShadowKiller571]

2018*

[@wenxuexianfeng]

@@ShadowKiller571 oops..sorry I meant I checked this out in 2021😶

[@Nicodareus]

@@metalphobos3632 oh my god wtf i thought you just mean RIP because he lost the rights to name his band CoB. I DIDN'T KNOW HE DIED WTF. Man after Van Halen i can't take these legends dying way before their time. 2020 is some seriously cursed shit.

[@Master5]

I discovered Children of Bodom after his death... Wtf is this, how I've never heard this before, it's god-like... Alexi was a genius

[@thanjay1867]

Early Bodom = best Bodom

[@mirvaahonen8083]

Agreed, until Hexed came out :)

[@grimblegromblethegnome]

I used to avoid everything after hate crew deathroll but after Alexi passed I've been listening to everything and I gotta say those albums are full of good songs and tasty riffs. First 3 are still my favorite but I've come to realize they're all good.

[@Gramasz]

@@grimblegromblethegnome pussyfoot miss suicide has the best riff of all the albums after the first 4

[@jeroen0011]

@@Gramasz I'm not really a big fan of Skeletons In The Closet (cover album), but i can honestly say i love every other album, CoB was my favourite band since i discovered them in 2008 till now and probably always will be one of my all time favorites to go back to... Damaged Beyond Repair and Bed Of Razors are seriously underrated imo

[@sainttony4829]

So damn true

[@NoFunkGiven]

Alexi Laiho, RIP legend.

[@chrisb3303]

It's just mind blowing that they were writing some of this stuff when they were teenagers.... RIP Alexi :(

[@froumts]

that downfall solo was perfect bro

[@leonardoutria]

UnoriginalMetalName thanks 🙏🏻

[@Nicodareus]

I never realized that CoB had such a clear influence from the Baroque musical style. Also Nevermore in 8 minutes :)

[@leonardoutria]

Yes, from Baroque and Classical eras. Love Nevermore too!

[@KinguCooky]

Lots of Mozart in there, too...and Abba

[@yamiimax]

And stratovarius i mean warman is obviously influenced of johanson

[@luismacielcosta8845]

Just hear one of the riffs of "Hexed". You'll know imediately which one, sounds like a Bach harpsichord concerto

[@eggwaffle]

So basically you never listened to them

[@lamniasgiorgos1672]

Rip Alexi (Wild Child) Laiho.....4ever in our hearts

Thanks for the long Children of Decadance solo ! An underrated solo not seen too many time in covers.

[@MetalJaska]

I hat a few songs on a mix-cd in 2004, i think it was Intro and silent night, bodom night from tokyo warhearts, children of decadence, hat me!, everytime i die and triple corpse hammerblow (and other stuff from other bands). that was my first contact with metal music, and it was sooo convincing. Children of Decadence was my favourite of these songs (hate me! caught up later) and still ist one of my favourites. was sad at every gig that it was not part of the setlist

[@kamranismayilzade3789]

Came here after hearing the bad news about Alexi Laiho, to view his legacy. Never took a chance to properly listen to their discography, but always knew and admired them for their technical masterpieces. Let his legacy live long. The author of the video did a great job 👍

[@leonardoutria]

Holy Thanks!

[@Rodrigogcf]

Incredible, man! The best melodic death metal band of all times.

[@broncoxy]

Perfectly played, great selection! CoB always gives me the chills... Its sad to say that I only really started to discover them after Alexis passing, but he lives on in our heart, always will, at least as long as I'm breathing and I'm sure I'm not alone.

[@douglascarneiro2881]

Why does this video does not have a million views? I simply don't get it. This guys is absolutely bonkers, so much talent. Listening to it in 2020

[@trashawhitsixx8940]

Simple cause not even 10 k know Who he is. If he dont pay lot a money when fb KZbin and and tell us he listen this guy. I get it . Some one Who play someone Else tracks and years couple thousand know hes, then is hart get mil wiews

[@trashawhitsixx8940]

Also those miljos Who want listen lake bodom youtube and every Else show you band Who make all that. That reason. Those Who wanna listen evwry Who play theys bands what they love find. Everypody else wiews is there children of bodom -song. Im not so interesting every rock metal rap etc what i listen so i dont use my Time listen randoms Who sing or song those idols music . If ya good and make music that how it start

[@trashawhitsixx8940]

Sorry dont meen bad. But think KZbin pay 10miljons dollars. What if every Who can play someone Else track 3/4k follower but still miljons wiew. That make mega Rich guys no platform years work and follower go up so wiews. Then evwry dude Who can play note make =money bodom,sabat, dimmu

[@fourground4363]

8 minutes of this dude fucking handling some Bodom! Rip Alexi, thanks for all the time you brought us together over the years. Even in your passing you still connect us.

[@augustog.n.4515]

I'm here because of Symphony X. No way this be possible!!!

[@himura1920]

Alexi artwork is masterpiece 💯

[@luismacielcosta8845]

Amazing to hear 8 minutes of Alexi's legacy so well played. I wish it was 9 minutes and you could include "Hexed"

[@leonardoutria]

I have to renew this video with new albums tracks, been Hexed my favorite from the last ones.

[@whirlwindsolitary8211]

Daaamn. Follow the Reaper is what a masterpiece

[@normanastetearevalo5777]

Fantástico.

[@alexanderwinzer2602]

When saw this type of video. You know what impact alexi laiho did on generation of metal heads like him or like me. The music of cob help me trough tough times in school

[@JonnyCrackers]

The guitar work on Hate Crew Deathroll is definitely my favorite out of all of their albums. So many awesome solos and riffs.

[@nazimurrashidchowdhury2843]

Alexi Laiho❤️

[@jonathandalacqua7182]

So perfect, beautifull nails.

[@mrclvgl1361]

[@nikhilthakur5426]

[@bryansandusky2036]

Holy shit bruv... Mad respect and Alexi would be stoked for the tribute. Thank you man!!! Rest in metal forever Alexi

[@alexpulgarin5853]

R.I.P Alexi Laiho

[@jacobteeter7879]

I think RRF is an severely overlooked album, I didn’t like it when it came out but I think it’s one of their best sounding albums. 1999-2003 is the best era for COB though.

[@leonardoutria]

It's an interesting album, Ugly is a fcking great piece.

[@dustinwainwright6429]

I absolutely love neoclassical style

[@FacelessWarrior86]

Wow! Amazing job, brother! Impeccable playing! Alexi would be proud with you... I am trully so devastated... Damn....

[@einwindir7892]

0:45 my fav part of my fav song maybe one day ill be able to play it

[@leonardoutria]

It's Magical

[@jpvgoncalves]

Obrigado

[@anthonylumpkins8632]

Here from Reddit. You absolutely killed this video! I love that Schecter also

[@jonasaa88]

All bodom - best bodom! Ive been in Helsinki once and i was proud of being in the same country as these guys. So tragic but such fan 😂

[@malcolmmckean9388]

Flawless playing. They peaked during follow the reaper imo but I still like all their albums.

[@crazyguitarist552]

Hatecrew #1 Follow the reaper ,#2 hatebreeder#3 in my opinion cause i Think folow the reaper has better solos but the songs in Hatecrew are more catchy

[@s4mcote]

@@crazyguitarist552 Amen to that, Bodom Beach Terror gets me hype every time I hear it

[@jkjbkdzbjhlzkdjkldslhdsklh694]

this towards dead end / follow the reaper is so awesome, thank you.

I'm trying to get better at lead guitar but I'm still intimidated by CoB solos :)). Great job man, I can't even imagine how much work you put into this

[@leonardoutria]

Many years, but not enough. It's still challenging

[@victorstriga]

@@leonardoutria haha, damn. I hope someday I'll be able to play them just as you are!

[@leonardoutria]

@@victorstriga The main thing to me is doing it with passion and getting it with a good process/teacher/study. If you need some help with it let me know!

[@alexanderk2787]

Bravissimo

[@Timdeenter]

This must’ve taken so much work and practice to learn! I love that you included the riff at 6:48

[@edymauriciovegapuma7195]

I really love Hexed album and Bodom After Midnight Band material. Im thinking about doing maybe a Laiho Special or sth..

[@Rdkmrng]

@@leonardoutria include synergy too please

[@Rob_Cary]

Hate Crew rules. They truly honed the best of everything they're good at on that one. Zero filler, perfect production that sounds great in 2020 let alone 2003.. best bodom albums start with hate in the title. Amazing vid man. Love your guitar also.

[@angeldimitrov6079]

Woow, that was awesome 9 minutes, very, very good job bro! 🎸🎶🤘🏼
