Alexi plays in CoB...Alexi plays in Sinergy...Sharlee D'Angelo played in Sinergy...Sharlee D'Angelo plays in Mercyful Fate...Mike Wead plays in Mercyful Fate...Mike Wead played in Abstrakt Algebra...Mats Leven played in Abstrakt Algebra...Mats Leven played in Yngwie Malmsteens band...Bob Daisley played in Yngwie Malmsteen's band...Bob Daisley played bass for Ozzy

So when you look at it that way...Alexi and Ozzy are practically brothers

Sonata Arctica is related to Cob because Mikko Harkin also made an apperance on Timo K's solo cd along with Janne.

Norther and Cob are related because Alexi, Alexander and Jaska did some backing vocals on Norther's Mirror of Madness cd.



Does this one count? Nightwish and Cob are related because Alexi and Jaska were on their dvd: "from wishes to eternity" ... although it was when Jaska and Alexi were on tour with Sinergy.

You stole my idea dude

Alright, they're related to
- Twisted Sister (We're Not Gonna Take It live cover)
- Klamydia (Latomeri cover)
- Ramones (Somebody cover)
- Impaled Nazarene (Alexi played there + wrote some songs; some inspiration for "Downfall" lyrics...)
- Skid Row (the line "We'll stand and we won't fall" is taken from "Youth Gone Wild", the song COB did backings for when Norther covered it.)
- To/Die/For (Allu solos on "In The Heat Of The Night" cover)
- Stratovarius ("Eagle Heart" played after solo battles)
- Nightwish ("Elvenpath" played before Downfall on Paris bootleg)
- Kotipelto (Janne played keys)
- Wizard and Cryharvoc because they were on splitted singles with them.


I'm too lazy to list all the abnds they toured with or in whose CD booklets they got greeted...

But if course they're related to Black Widow because they're a COB cover band!
