Honestly the biggest difference to me is that Alexi is one of very few who’s solos don’t just sound like guitar wanking. When you listen to Alexi, Randy, Dimebag… there’s a different attitude than any of these other guys like Temmu, Petrucci, or whoever. Alexi made unique solos without having...

I have a GP-1000 too and have used a Rocktron Velocity 100, Peavey Classic 50/50, and now an Engl E840 in the power section. Each one was a clear step up from the last, though definitely more expensive. Love the Engl, sounds great and highly recommend. I’ve been considering getting a Marshall...

Fuck, he looks so unwell in that video… His face is just… blank. No movements or expressions, even during the screams his mouth barely moves. It’s so sad.

Same. I have a dimarzio paf pro with a clone JE-1000. I had an emg-81 before. The emg was not muddy, but the paf definitely makes it seem so. Really tight low end with the paf pro, not nearly as much punch though. In general more “trebly” tone in my opinion. Can’t find J50BCs anymore...

Coroners would have most likely said it was a drug overdose if that was the case. I don’t think those played a part in his death. They listed the liver and pancreas degeneration as the cause and those were probably just his regular medications for dealing with those issues.

This is amazing! Can’t thank you enough, really happy to see footage like this.

Feels like there’s some “legal” work going on. Lots of videos being removed from YouTube (like the Vivaldi video with millions of views and some live shows).

Yeah, basically the gain boost preamp turns your passive pickup into an “active” one. You’ll need a new jack that’d be compatible with an active pickup.

That 10 minutes of soloing in the Dec 2005 video, around 52:00, missed seeing things like that

I think I remember he would send the parts to the guys to practice before rehearsing. Pretty sure he would quickly record the parts and send them out to them.

I would not like it if the other guys recorded new music in the future under the Bodom name. Bodom is, and has always been, Alexi. Continuing the band under his name without him is disrespectful. Like if I started a band and named it Pantera 2 with none of the original members. It’s not right...

I’ve never seen either of these, don’t know if there’s more out there: He’s in the preview of the November 2015 video, but only on the cover of April 2011 issue (maybe that’s the RRF 2011 video released later in the year?) https://youngguitar.jp/yg/yg-201104 https://youngguitar.jp/yg/yg-201511

That might be the best cover of the solos I’ve ever heard

From Kimberly Goss, she’s been uploading a lot of pictures with stories

So many years of keeping up with him and the band, and so many iconic moments that will stick with everyone forever. Watching all the COB TV, old live videos like the Seoul show and Chaos Ridden Years or documentaries, reading up on his gear for hours or watching the instructional videos, even...
