R.I.P Alexi. Children of bodom was one of my biggest influences. You're one of the first people I thought of cause I know you're huge fan as well. Shitty way to start the new year but let's not mourn but rejoice that we were blessed to have Alexi around. One of the greatest ever!
Class of 2000. Leaving a summer party and a friend who was mostly into emo and hardcore put in Hatebreeder and said "I can't stop listening to this album." and pretty soon, neither could I.
I was introduced to bodom when I was about 13 years old. It blew my mind. It was my first step into metal and made me feel a way that I couldn’t describe. I was in jr high and hit my first concert with my best friend mike. It was the unholy alliance tour. Mastodon, lamb of god, bodom, and slayer. Here I stand almost 20 years later and I’ve yet to experience anything in my life as loud as what I felt that day. I was lucky enough to see bodom a few more times after that before alexi passed. This band was so instrumental into shaping me into the man I am today and every time I hear these riffs it takes me back to a completely different era of life. RIP Alexi. The man will go on as a legend for eternity. 🥲🤙
Hatebreeder is the album that got me obsessed with Alexi and CoB. Bed of Razors is the song that taught me sweep picking. So happy to see you on my home page man, keep it up
Another BADASS solo played by a badass guitarist with a badass guitar 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻! Watching you smile during the chunky palm muted parts brings a smile to my face too. ROCK THE CASBAH!!!🎸
A little while ago I came across Anssi Kippo's blog posts where he revealed some less known facts about the recording process of the first 2 CoB albums. And just recently I aquired the first 3 Bodom albums + Blooddrunk for 4€ (and their condition is like brand new). First 2 albums were the shit for me 20+ years ago! Listening to them now really takes me back. And now you cover one of their classics... There is only one thing I can say: TORILLE!
Thank you for this cover! For me this is a blast from the past that brings me back 20 years in time to ~2000, when I was 17. I was a shy, silent guy who got bullied a lot and who was regularly thinking about committing suicide because somehow I saw no other exit and was lost in my feelings. Then this strange, dark and wild girl from my class somehow realized something bad was going on with me and long story short, she invited me over to her and introduced me metal! And CoB where my entry drug. Their music caught me like nothing else. They pulled me in, cracked my shell open and provided me with a valve that let all my feelings and despair out. The music as fast, harsh and wild as it was in me at this time. Something Wild, Hatebreeder and Follow the Reaper where my musical therapy, and it was quite successful, as I'm still here. Now I didn't listen to their music for at least 8 to 10 years. Thank you for bringing them back to my mind and for inducing these memories from more than half of my life ago!
It took me 10 years and this video to get the pun about this song. Im so glad you both covered this, and iluminated my understanding about the pun. I acquired more insight and I know the eldrich truths.
I really love your videos! You inspire me so much to become better at guitar! I’m getting a pedal to make my guitar sound metal today, I’m so excited!!! 🎸🤘🎧
Christmas song right?
I have learned it too, its easy song to practice, except sweeps for some people, but its also possible to master 🔥🤘 Keep it up man amazing
Better
Asik bro mantap👍
The guitar sing any sweeter.
No, because if it was I'd have to hate it. Ha ha. 😄 🚫🎄🎶

I'm a simple man; I see 331Erock cover Bodom, I like and share
Cool profile pic dude!
Also a good one ^^
Based Terry
You comment too
With Alexis passing, you should totally do a tribute vid. You're one of the only ones who could do it any justice
High school memories, damn that was 12 years ago fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Same here, i graduated in 2008
04 crowd here. Bodom got me into metal! Saw them last year before they broke up.
@JediNxf7 had a chance to see them and Amon Amarth in south texas but didnt buy the tickets in time.. worst shit ive done

I haven't thought about children of bodom in a long time, time to relisten to their entire discography!
Approves!
Absolutely gutted they ended the band though.
@@twiggygun same here man
@@twiggygun I'm sure we will get something similar to CoB with Bodom after midnight.
@@kinkkku never heard of this..... Gonna look for it now.
R.I.P. Wild Child. Your music will live on forever
The part that makes this wild is Alexi wrote all this shit in his early 20's when we were all playing 7-9-10 like idiots lol
Alexi was 19, when the Hatebreeder released. :)
I bowed out of this song at like 16 when I couldnt hit the sweeps lol
More Bodom please I just love it when you play some of their songs!
OMG it's so good to see Erock with his classic ESP V 🔥🔥🔥
Wow only 3 weeks ago. Life is crazy... RIP Alexi💔
That smile.... That damned smile...
That smile is so many things

Aw man. CoB definitely takes me back. All those sleepless nights jammin with my friends in highschool. 🤘🤘
Yes! More Bodom
Hatebreeder is the album that got me obsessed with Alexi and CoB. Bed of Razors is the song that taught me sweep picking. So happy to see you on my home page man, keep it up
R.I.P Alexi you gave me much joy with your beautiful music. Prayers go out to his family and CoB
What a fantastic song by an amazing band. 🤘🏻
yeah 🤘🤘

One of the best Bodom songs ever!
Nice work
You made my day with this COB cover
I watched a lot of guitar covers from this guy and its amazing how good he is. One of the best in the world for sure. HUGE RESPECT
I hate and love how easy you make this look. I love it.
Tff did you predict his death
Is that my boy covering my favourite band of all time? Hell to the yes
Amazing job Erock! It is always great to see someone just smiling while playing the joy !!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
A true masterpiece...Rest in Peace Alexi
Great job man, still smiling here. Let's keep Alexi's legend alive!
If I could play these solos, I could die happy.
My most favorite solos might all be by Children of Bodom. Good job!
Probably my favourite COB song ! Love it !
heck yeah COB song! your COB covers is what got me to follow you 8? 9? years ago. long time fan hope you have a great holiday season!
A dope unintentional tribute. Always well played sir
Si, que total!!! 😎👏👏👏👏👏
Saludos desde Jaén, España
Welcome back Eric, missed your videos bro 🤘

Awesome song and awesome play. Well done man. So sad that Children of Bodom was broken up. Bodom after midnight is not what I've wanted to see.
Flawless man! Such a sick solo, Great job
Gran trabajo como siempre 🤘
