I got to see the last show he ever played in Toronto and I got to meet the band. When I learned of his passing at 41 years young, my throat was so heavy, it felt like I was swallowing razor blades.
I watched his lessons in 2008 as high school student obsessed with guitar. Played along the whole video. Today on a hot summer day this Vivaldi metal cover was playing in my head, and then I found out that Alexi Laiho was no longer among us since 2020... 🥲
Avec Roope Latvala...ce grand mais tres grand musicien ..guitariste aura su laisser une marque dans l'histoire de la musique merci et respect a toi cher Alexi Repose en paix mon ami😔
It's amazing how if I've never heard the original and just heard this, I'd think it was another badass sounding metal song because of how well it fits. Even 400 years ago when a human found a string instrument, their instinct was to start shredding on it.
In Finnish mythology there is a place called Tuonela. It's basically equal to Valhalla, but I wan't to believe I'll meet Aleksi at Tuonela, not in Valhalla :)
taylor, justin, rihana and beyonce can die in one night and it wouldnt amount to a small fraction of what losing Alexi means to the world of music, hope he is slaying those guitar solos to his heart's content wherever he is
If it's the bit I'm thinking of it's Yngwie Malmsteen's "I'll See the Light Tonight". Yngwie was the main influence for all the neoclassical shredders.
They were both alcoholics. And (as myself) alcoholics get temper and frustration... many times for no reason. At some point, Roope was more drunk and not good for a job (at that specific moment), so he got kicked out from Children of Bodom. There and there, Roope is still alive, Alexi is not. In so many levels sad story. 😪
@@t.t.v.6217 so sade what happent to them Both, Roope most likely never Will release new music, he really is on bottom now As far As i know and hear news about him.... and alexi is gone For now and forever.... Addiction To alcohol is a deadly and sad sickness My father and mother were also holics, Both dead now...
@@kashfiaislam9995 Yes I noticed it in him too, but it's a common theme with highly creative people including painters. Nobody plays the violin better then the devil.
None, alexi maby slight boss chorus not sure was he using it this early, but bodom setup was in this time jackson rr, marshall jvm, lee jackson pre amp and a passive pickup, on the first album the amp was peavey 5150 and in later years he used slight boss chorus, on all the time and had kirk hammett wah in the pedal board but never heard him play using it
Alexis tone came straight from the fingers, no effects and the chorus came in after 2010 about that time it was ON all the time atleast when playing live in studio i dont know
Shame Laiho and Latvalla couldn't of talked before his death. I feel bad for Roope he got fucked bad overall. Alcohol is is a killer I do it...let's all quit in the name of Alexi..I'm ready I'm on urge of death myself because of it and I'm 35
Alexi didn't die, he's just shredding in a pub in valhalla
I wish
I joining to 💪
Actually as Finnish he went to Tuonela.
He ascended
They played this outside on a sunny day for Alexi’s family. Everyone cried as it was so beautiful.

Valhalla welcomed you Alexi!! Well done! Thank you!!

@@moonchant Then I hope for you that you are finnish. Otherwise no Tuonela for you.
I used downloaded this from Likewire back around 2002 or 2003. I remember desperately to tryinf to find a tab for it.
Well....did you? I need it too! Fking Beautiful
Alexi literally shows slow motion how to play this in another video that is full
I cited this video in my first ever essay in my bachelor's. Got a first. Thanks alexi 🤘
Absolutely amazing! He took me back to score reading.... Is this Summer Mvt 3 ?

Dave Mustaine love this Vivaldi recording and praised Alexi.

I miss him
Sad to see the relationship between alexi and roope degraded...
02:17
Alexi...🥹 Che la terra ti sia lieve 🌈
Era uno dei migliori del genere. Da notare che la chitarra di Roope Latvala qui ha lo stesso suono di un violino
That first part of the dueling solo they play sounds exactly like the solo in Helloween’s Dreambound.
If it's the bit I'm thinking of it's Yngwie Malmsteen's "I'll See the Light Tonight". Yngwie was the main influence for all the neoclassical shredders.
R.I.P
Alexi Laiho died a virgin. 🎨🥁🎸
you know it's old if he's using the Jackson before it was stolen and he switched to ESP
Yeah... Much heavier accent too.
Are you stubid or something he has esp 2002 and roope join the band 2003
Ему было 18 лет
У него украли Джексон тогда на концерте
I would like to hear the original song. What is its name?
Vivaldi Summer
passage to the reaper
What happened that causes Roope to leave Bodom??

I looked at my guitar and sighed
Anyone that knows which pedals they're using?
