When a metal rock solo is played softly like that, it's actually really nice. Banger.

[@allbottledup9513]

It’s one of the biggest issues I always had with metal. Metal houses some of the world’s finest guitarists, but I can really only appreciate them in clean tone/minor distortion. That over the top distortion most metal bands have just takes away all the beauty for me. It’s just a garbled mess of notes at that point, but in clean tone they shine!

[@nevmiku]

@@allbottledup9513 A garbled mess of notes? You mean white noise, right? Because that's what it eventually sounds like to me after a while.

What are you talking about, Most of the best Guitarist started off with Jazz Guitar

[@Jackson...]

​@@r0bz0rlybait or mental retardation? I genuinely can't tell

[@jonathanhilliard9772]

I wouldn't classify what he's doing as innovative in terms of jazz. The first thing most jazz musicians do is learn the pentatonic scale which comprises the bulk of his solo. When there are so many interesting new ways to play outside of what you'd expect, and even new ways to play tastier and more "in", I don't think that this is the direction for jazz to go towards. If you listen to jazz guitarists like Kurt Rosenwinkel, Gilad Hekselman, Peter Bernstein, Pat Martino (RIP) etc. you'll hear the many different corners of innovation and experimentation. No hate to this video or this comment, but jazz is going in so many interesting directions and to say that it needs to sound more like this video, a metalhead not really trying to play the jazz language... I don't agree. Elevator music comes from dumbing down generations and generations of musical innovations into something empty enough to be ignored. Even if you were to play the "status quo" of jazz, if you really did your homework, it wouldn't be elevator music, and even if it was it would be so beautiful and interesting that it would be too distracting for an elevator. Check out those guitarists I shared and let me know what you think!

"Hate Me" talks about being baptized in alcohol, the joke my friends had about joining the Hate Crew involved drinking an entire fifth of Jack Daniels in one go, there are so many lyrics where Alexi spoke of dying rather than changing his ways. He attacked the bottle (as well as other activities allegedly) as hard as he attacked the guitar. There was a passion in his playing and determination that can be a disadvantage in other parts of life. His love life sounded pretty rough too judging from other songs. Its so sad to see someone with that kind of passion trying to escape the world with intoxicants. Despite how adored he was, he chose to destroy himself. At least his music immortalized him, but I'll always wonder what could have been.

Getting goosebumps bro, I love COB and everytime I die is one of my all time favs. Good stuff bro!

[@purplesanta4202]

Ahh elevator metal

[@warlock91]

I played the keyboard part in my head after it, such a great song. Alexi you hero, RIP

[@HenritheHorse]

Started humming the part too!

[@metalftw9652]

Oddly works and makes sense. I mean Alexi did have some Jazz and 80’s inspiration to his soloing, so yeah. It straight up works

[@DasInf13]

metal across the board is heeeaaavily influenced by jazz wether intentional or not

[@chicoguarro7258]

Wasn't expecting THAT solo at all, made me smile and a little sad at the same time...
