*This one is for Alexi 'Wildchild' Laiho. Rest easy, legend, idol, guitar hero 🖤* Like for many others Alexi Laiho has been a person I looked up to. Thanks to Children Of Bodom I discovered a heavier side of metal and got into complex guitar techniques. I never did a guitar cover of COB as I always had huge respect for Alexi's playing and whenever I was learning a Children Of Bodom song as a beginner back in the days, I gave up way too quickly. As many of you asked - and I also felt like I had to do a tribute - here are ten iconic Children Of Bodom guitar riffs for you guys! We are looking at some classics such as Downfall, Are You Dead Yet?, Needled 14/7 , Angels Don't Kill and many more! Nevertheless I lack accuracy and this riff list isn't as "on point" like others, but I tried my best! Rest in peace, Alexi. You will be missed but never forgotten! Thank you so much for all the inspiration. On another note: Not everything is perfectly in synch as my cam records in 30fps and I am limited to synch to these frames. At some points it's okay, at some points it looks "too fast" or "too slow". I hope to figure out these issue someday. All guitars played and recorded by me obviously. Stay tuned and rock on!

Angels Don't Kill - is the only song with which I began my acquaintance, namely in the wonderful game Brutal Legend. This song immediately made me fall in love with myself with the introductory part on keyboards, which was beautifully performed by Janne Wirman. Even before I had time to move away from the wonderful introduction, I immediately heard the voice of the soloist, at the same time the guitarist, Alexi Laiho. I say right away that I was not a wild fan of Laiho and Bodom, but still I want to say thank you for your creativity Alexi, your eternal memory. 2021 has just begun...

I remember Brutal Legend. It has an amazing soundtrack. Thanks to this game I also discovered Accept! (well I knew them before but I got into their songs because of this game). I have been pleasantly surpirsed to listen to COB when I played this game! =)

CoB was one of the biggest influences in making me appreciate melodic heavier metal stuff as well as intricate guitar AND keyboard solos. I still listen to the main album of my teens (hate crew deathroll) all the time. It sucks I never got to see the complete band live... RIP Alexi, you and your club made some awesome music

This is a nice tribute, Jassy. COB were one of the first metal bands I got into 20 years ago and their songs bring back so many memories, especially their Bodom-themed songs were my light when things went wrong. R.I.P. Alexi - never forgotten.

I woke up to hearing he died and went to my room to cry.. I still can’t believe he’s dead, he was my favorite musician. I also thought I was gonna see them live this year :(

I can definitely see that influence in you. His legacy will live on in not just the songs but everyone playing guitar now or listening to heavier music because of him and never be forgotten.
