Children Of Bodom - Photo Exhibition

"Strikes and Gutters, Ups and Downs" - Children Of Bodom in Retrospective Photos.
Janne, Jaska and Henkka walk you through the first official Children Of Bodom photo exhibition that took place in October 2022 in Espoo Cultural Center.
This retrospective was created in close cooperation with Alexi’s estate and of course the selected photographers. The exhibition moved later on permanently to Bodom Bar and Sauna.
The pieces are also for sale (except piece nr 4), edition of 5+1 meaning there will be max. 5 copies made ever. Each piece comes with a numbered certificate signed by Janne, Jaska, Henkka and Anna (Alexi’s estate). The shop and virtual gallery can be found here:

One of the most legendary metal bands of our time, had to comment to pay my respects to Laiho, a genius gone way too soon, rest in power 🤘🤘🤘

[@fanaticBodom]

I’ll never get over that Alexi passed and bodom is no longer a band. It hurts so bad. At least we have the memories ❤️

[@FlunaOwO]

Can't even put into words how much inspiration this band has given me. Alexi and Chuck from Death are my biggest influences for guitar and screaming. Rest easy Alexi, miss you everyday

My favorite band of all time… Rest in power, Alexi, we will remember you forever

[@LorcanWard]

Still can't believe he's gone but he left behind a legacy for sure.

[@rayuelarcaica]

I shed a few tears, never got to see them live cuz they had to cancel their concert in Ecuador. Thanks for sharing your memories, long live COB and Alexi!

[@Gielderst]

I listen to COB everyday. My favorite band of all time. Henkka, Jaska, Janne, Roope, Alexander, Daniel and ofcourse the one and only Alexi " WildChild " are the coolest musicians in my eyes. Super funny and very intelligent people. And they're all virtuosos in their music, Janne is a keyboard master, Jaska a drum master Henkka bass master, Roope, Alexander, Daniel and Alexi phenomenal guitarists. Their melodies and sound are unmatched plus Alexi's voice and solos. They're like a musical gift from God for us to enjoy. Alexi was the coolest and most badass lead singer and guitarist of any other in my view. He had the coolest look and stage presence. That's why he's my all time favorite. The one and only WildChild. Rest in Power wherever you may be Alexi. I'll never forget you or the other guys. Best band of all time.

[@TheEisenbein]

First of all, you guys did an amazing job to keep the memories alive. You really are giving your 500%. It is just wonderful that you care for that all so much. And I think it is just beautiful - the way you talk about Alexi. Maybe you didn't notice it, but you were like getting slower and more nostalgic whenever you talked about Alexi. Beautiful movement, beautiful words and beautiful times. Thank you!

[@sprouky4676]

You guys are the best and you will always be my favorite band. I remember when I was 13 years old and wanted to be legendary guitarist like Alexi and my grandma and my father bought me my first guitar :) . Rest in peace Alexi

[@SeanBennettGuitar]

The memories captured in these photos, just wow! Children of Bodom will always be unique in the metal scene, no matter the time that passes. I remember hearing COB for the first time through a school friend - I couldn't believe the sounds and solos Alexi was able to make; it was something I had never heard on a guitar before.

[@sinisterking6009]

I'm not crying just cutting onions! Thank you for sharing guys. Grew up with COB!

[@johnnydgreydavis1899]

No greater band in my mind in life or history.. thank you 3 for sharing all these photos.. R. I. P. Wild child.....

[@michaelgallegos8811]

Iam So glad I got one of Alexi Lahio's signature guitars the Greeny, long live COB ! Rip Alexi 🙏 thanks for sharing these memorable memories and great times..🎸🎛🥁😊💛♥️🍻

[@ScottSix66]

Thanks for walking us thru and preserving these moments. I enjoy looking back standing in the front row of the Wacken 2018 show or the one in Stuttgart with some very funny interactions with Insomnium. Looking forward to sometime soon visit the Bodom Bar!

[@SindreMyskja]

A great collection of memories.. RIP Alexi 🖤

[@VobiscumSanta]

I was at the Kentucky show where Alexi fucked up his shoulder. He still powered through and did a whole set. Fuckin love you guys.

[@semirozerkan5332]

Got little teared up with his legendary moments through photos.

[@anatriellociucci1224]

Thank you for sharing this! And thanx for the all the good music. I feel nostalgic, getting back to when i first heard COB in 99 and your gig in Rome in 2004. Wish u all the best❤

[@analoguesoul]

Rest in Power Alexi ...miss you dearly.

[@Amaloltis]

1:13 i was there, just a meter to the left of this photo.. I'll never forget that night and COB

[@arieswildchild]

I am so happy to see those photos and at the same time sad. I was there, at Medeia and COB concert, me and a friend waited till 4:30 am next to the tour buss Alexi to came out and spoke with Lora all night. They told us he was so tired and went directly to the bus so we never interrupted, screaming or nocking, just waited there and then left. Never blamed him for not coming out, now I think it could be more than just being tired. Thanks for sharing those photos, it means a lot! 🖤

[@globavladimir919]

COB! Forever! Thank you guys!

[@Juicexlx]

Thanks guys. Good times. I was blasting some COB this morning, somewhere in Montréal, QC ⚜

[@Ivar.Savage]

Sweet moments to remember

[@nickschiller1080]

My favorite band ever and I saw them 6 times and can't believe I'll never get to see them again. I couldn't even listen to Bodom for a long wall after Alexi passed and cried for days, still can't believe he's gone. I felt these guys took a break cause they knew Alexi had to get better but him and Daniel kept on. They are brothers like Alexi said, "I'm not friends with them, I'm brothers with them". Things felt weird after Roope was let out of the band and things seemed a Lil weird after that to me. None the less my favorite band and shredder that got me through really tough times. RIP WILDCHILD COBHC FOREVER!!!

[@Founworld]

I LOVE YOU COB

[@calvinelamparo3936]

First and last time i saw them live was 2008 blooddrunk tour, RIP Alexi
