R.I.P Alexi.. What a guitar hero, composer, front man and real rock star who is there for his fans. Dedicated his whole life to music, crafted his own sound in metal and influenced the metal music scene and endless amount of guitarists/musicians big time. Influenced me a lot as well. Got to meet him in Finland the same year as this video was shot, I was just a kid, it was a dream come true for me back then. And still pushes me to train guitar. Gotta upload some COB solo covers at some point.. Take care everybody!
0:01: Show/clip Intro(Korn's System & another before) 1:06: Tie My Rope 5:19: Sioux City Sarsaparilla(Alexi did for videogame Guitar Heroes' album) 9:09: Rammstein's song Tier
We had a REALLY good NAMM Show, in no small part thanks to Alexi, Janne, and George Lynch, who all did some freakin awesome performances on our little stage. Thanks to all who came and enjoyed the show. :)
alexi is such an awesome guy :D the last song reminded me of a rammstein song called "tier" because it has the same opening riff; it's even in the same key :P
It was EMG HZ-H4 with MM-04 peakselect. Before that it was J-50bc with JE-1000 (both setups were through GP-1000 preamp by lee jackson). Now it's SD Blackouts and no gainboost thru a Marshall.
hosonkablawi (17 hours ago) 0 the 2nd song is sioux city sarsaparilla, its on the guitar heroes album..one album definately worth downloading. =D sure you can say downloading but I bought it the first day it came
That's kind of the point of it.. They created that sound to make it the "CoB-sound" That was the thing that made me listen to em, and i love their music
Listen to the new album (it may or may not be available on certain torrent sites) A lot of the solos on it are very reminiscent of old Alexi. I agree tho, I liked his playing and writing much more on the early albums.
Yea he uses korg. but also has a shit load of rack effects too. I played that same keyboard and couldnt find that sound gets. he uses the Korg X5D keyboard. you can find the info on wikipedia. hope this helps.
Well he lives in finland. I'm sure he's not going to have his amp shipped to cali just for one day. He's just using whatever is available to him. I don't know what he normally uses, though, I thought VHT.
just because you like don't like some of the new stuff he's doing doesn't mean he's "losing" his style. Thats what I like about Alexi and COB in general, they try new stuff all the time.
in all seriousness i think the reason he plays so shabilly some times is because he is drunk or hungover. he drinks too much. but when he is sober he shows his true genious.

Into hot-rodded Marshall JCM800 Kerry King. Too bad that the recording quality is so low
Thank you for all the music. Modern day Mozart.

its a good thing your film crew knows that filming the solos is very important and the filming of it all was good and the jaming was even better !
i saw this on cable tv the other day, it was great
I would've liked to see him and Dimebag jam.
Oh my goodness...I could have cried, that was so amazing.
I've achieved his sound with my vox tonelab and my fender loaded with EMG's... His style however, is unachievable... A true guitar god in my eyes
alexi is such an awesome guy :D
the last song reminded me of a rammstein song called "tier" because it has the same opening riff; it's even in the same key :P

Sioux City Sarsaparilla by Alexi Laiho. It's on the album "Guitar Heroes" from 2007.
You can find the song on youtube.
The second one is "Sioux City Sarsaparilla" (written by Alexi) from finnish shred album called "Guitar Heroes"
Yep love the song dawning of doom its good jam lol i got the live version of it
Sioux City Sarsaparilla With keys sounds just incredible. Especially with Alexi's pauses
I just love that Tie My Rope riff at 03:10 ->
I guess this is the new version of Tie My Rope! Nicee!
You rock!
nice stuff,Alexi rules!
2:21 alexi : let's harmonise 🤘

the name of the second song is "sioux city sarsaparilla" and the song is on "guitar heroes"
Loving how progressive this is, the song changes the whole time & it's so technical.
epic jam ;)

Sony Genesis? Wow man, where you been the last 20 or so years, under a rock ?
the second song is called 'sioux city sasparilla', and it's on the guitar heroes compilation cd.
i've never seen him perform sioux city live, great!
i love the bodom :D
Yeah! Thats exactly what I thought!
he not only use emg.. he use pickup booster.. thats what make his sound better than a lot of guitarist and the way he equalize the marshal pre amp :P
1. Tie My Rope by Children of Bodom
2. Sioux City Sarsaparilla by Alexi Laiho
3. Tier by Rammstein
Rest in peace Alexi.
That's kind of the point of it.. They created that sound to make it the "CoB-sound"
That was the thing that made me listen to em, and i love their music
what i would of done to be there.....those are the two coolest people on the planet my idols.
How is it humanly possible to rock this fucking hard?
the second is "Sioux City Sarsaparilla" (written by Alexi) from finnish shred album called "Guitar Heroes"
second song is Sioux City Sarsaprilla :D one of my fav's . alexi is god !! \m/
Sooooo awesome. Especially last song, kick ass! Anybody know what song it is?
yes
alexi got chops SHEEEEEeeeSH
Children Of Bodom + Alexi Laiho = Amazing.
Listen to the new album (it may or may not be available on certain torrent sites) A lot of the solos on it are very reminiscent of old Alexi. I agree tho, I liked his playing and writing much more on the early albums.
great ^^
11:34 ....... harmonic with your toung you're truly a badass ha
@qdsqd he's telling the sound technician to turn down something, im not 100% sure what it is, im guessing its the gain cause janne mentions feedback.
I like when janne shreds his solo at 8:50 like completelly casually : D
I bet those are songs from the new album! Sounds Good!
9:09 is the cover of Die Krupps The Dawning of The Doom. Rammstein's Tier is the slow ass version
how is the last song called? its cool O.O
You can also see a Krank Revolution head in the COBTV vids.
alexi fucking rules
I can't fuckin' wait for Blooddrunk, fuck!
I agree with you..
de da na de da na de den den de na!!!!
hahahaha. i never noticed but alexi so looks like jason mewes. that's some kick ass playing though.
Those two are the fucking gods of metal! hail to COBHC
Yea he uses korg. but also has a shit load of rack effects too. I played that same keyboard and couldnt find that sound gets. he uses the Korg X5D keyboard. you can find the info on wikipedia. hope this helps.
"shredding the riffs like a watergate memo" thats a new one! I'm gonna use that! Did you make that up?
what's the name of the song tht he's playing the solo at 8:10, i love that solo and idk which song its in
Well he lives in finland. I'm sure he's not going to have his amp shipped to cali just for one day. He's just using whatever is available to him. I don't know what he normally uses, though, I thought VHT.
what is the name of a second song?
just because you like don't like some of the new stuff he's doing doesn't mean he's "losing" his style. Thats what I like about Alexi and COB in general, they try new stuff all the time.
does the beginning of that third piece doesn't sound like a fast version of rammsteins engel?
its the one alexi ddid for guitar heros...cant spell it right...Sioux city Sarsaparrila
holy shit was that second song a new one from the new album?
yngwie is a littile more in sinc with his hands and a littile clearer but alix is fucking amzing.........
How do you explain hes able to switch sounds with the x5 ? Usually, its impossible when using a midi device..
Technical genius..
whats the nice music at 9,20?it sound so nice:D...i love cob my favourite band \m/
Alexi is GOD! and Janne kicks some major ass too!
1:57 Cool :D.
in all seriousness i think the reason he plays so shabilly some times is because he is drunk or hungover. he drinks too much. but when he is sober he shows his true genious.
