Go listen to Tokyo Warhearts

[Rock Hydra]

BTW, Alexi's technical skill has NOT diminished over the years. However, he has gotten sloppier, but this is due directly to how low his guitar is hanging.

Look at that in 2006, it's practically at Korn height.

He's hunched over and in a stance, the other picture, he's standing up. Not aguing the other points, just the reason why his guitar is hanging low.

^ PWNAGE!

He's hunched over and in a stance, the other picture, he's standing up. Not aguing the other points, just the reason why his guitar is hanging low.

Look at the angle of his right arm in both pictures, and how his hand is grasping the neck. If just stood up straight in the picture on the right, his arm would probably need to be fully extended to even pick the strings, ie: a really unnatural and uncomfortable playing position.

 

[Hatebreeder]

Barely any mistakes? Are you completely tone-deaf and reatarded or what?

Quiet, you.

 

[Rock Hydra]

To be honest, looks the same to me (using the end of the fretboard to judge and 2 pictures of Alexi standing up):

I think rather than how his guitar is hanging, his technique when he leads. Instead of pulling the guitar to him, he hunches down on the guitar. Do an image search and you'll see him hunched over in a LOT of them, actually.

Urm I've seen Dragonforce 3 times and they can pull it off live, try leaving your house and going to a gig.

actually both times i've seen them they were sloppy as fuck with terrible sound quality and just overall shit, two different venues too.

Name me one solo that they pulled off note for note. I saw them and I listened for my favorite parts, many of which were not there. It was a sad day for me, I learned that Dragonforce's music is not real. I've seen Bodom over 10 times and everytime is amazing. But nothing will compare to Tokyo Warhearts. Alexi was brilliant back then. Now, his music is like everyone else's

 

[LedByTheReaper]

Valley of the Damned solo was note for note the 3rd time I saw them, and keep in mind how near paraleticly drunk they are when they play live...

 

[Fetzer]

What is the point to go on a gig if they play each song like on the album?

 

[LedByTheReaper]

Exactly.. pay £20 to go a gig to hear it EXACTLY like the album.. or listen to the album for free..

 

[Fetzer]

Or watch the show for free on the internet at this point...

 

[LedByTheReaper]

or eat some food

 

[Fetzer]

beer is good food.

But were going off topic.

 

[LedByTheReaper]

Ale is better food. Yeh, well the Bodom forum is notorius for going off topic.. shit it's gone offtopic without lazylaiho being here.

 

[Fetzer]

Yah but COBHC Webmeister love to remeber us how he's powerful.

 

[LedByTheReaper]

He can suck my dick. After Alexi ofcourse.

 

[Lady_Laiho]

I haven't listened to Tokyo Warhearts yet but it's just the same songs from their other albums so i'm not going to buy it. ANd Bodom are fuckin awsome live. SIxpounder makes a really good live song.

 

[Mr.Proper]

OMG!!! NO TOKYO WARHEARTS! Thats the best live album of all time.....

blame on you!!!

 

[LedByTheReaper]

Actually... For Those Aboot To Rock by SYL is damned awesome.
