I've never been so sad over someone who isn't a friend or family, fuck. Seriously mourning the last couple of days. RIP, you were my favourite guitarist for as long as I knew about COB.
I met Alexi Laiho when I was 15 years old and I am currently 30 I am a guitarist very influenced by him and honestly your departure hurt me a lot ... but you achieved your goal as a human being, transcend as a musician and influence many people with that great charisma and talent that you had .... at the end of the day, that's what we come to this world for! Rest in peace Alexi!
Amazing solo. So well constructed, like all of them. A couple Jake E. Lee licks in there, harmonized to perfection. RIP Alexi, thanks for all your magic.
Really sad to hear that Alexi is no longer with us. He was such a cool guy, and an amazing musical talent. Rest in peace, and to all family and friends: I wish you much strength.
I was practicing the riffs of this song when I went online to find out this legend had just passed away... Feels like I got kicked hard in the chest. RIP Alexi, forever imortolized by your amazing compositions.
Dla mnie też. Słucham nieprzerwanie od 2001 roku kiedy na rynku pojawił się Follow the Reaper. Potem było zapoznanie się z Hatebreeder i tak COB stał się jednym z moich ulubionych zespołów. Nowy album zapowiada się nieźle choć moim zdaniem lata świetności mają już niestety za sobą.
Been listening to Children of Bodom since my teen years and for me this is in their top 3 songs ever recorded. The keyboards really take it over the top.
Hexed is my favorite album after the first four. RIP Alexi. He ended on a high note. A great live performance Helsinki, Tavastia and this album is really good.
This is some of the best COB has done in a long time. It has so many vibes from Hate Crew, and at the same time, we have the neoclassical stuff from the early albums as well.... perfect :D
every time i'm listening that - i have a mixed feeling of drive and satisfaction, and a full fealing of a disappointless, i think the world wasn't be the same after all. Yeah i know 'bout Jimi, James and Kurt, - and i really love them, but Alexi - thay was a fckn crazy hero of our time, and this loss is worst than ever we have thought... thx 4 all of yours, crazy child! u r 4ever in our hearts!
I wanted to reply to my own comment the moment I heard COB breaking up because... Ouh Them breaking up feels like getting stabbed in the back multiple times after I was hyped by them being back at the top of their game with this album again. All the "COB is back" comments here indeed didn't aged well horribly.
This is going to be great live. Everyone will be moshing or whatever, but when the riff kicks in at 2:04 the whole place will be headbanging in unison. That is always an amazing sight to see.
children of bodom are pretty much the only band i can think of off the top of my head that have had a consistent sound and feel to their music throughout their entire career and i wouldn't have it any other way
I dont care what anyone says. Loved Children of Bodom since the day I first heard them. Carried me through the years and many hard times. I'm still hurt and will be til I follow Alexi to the ground.
I got this on my GranTurismo playlist. Especially when I'm racing any event @ the Nurburgring. My heart beats in sync with both the car & the song at the same time. Everything really truly does become a blur but is a fun blur
@@dr.pepperr1409 I'm agreed with you, it's probably not the worst solo. There's a lot of boring solos in previous albums also. In fact, I love this song overall but I don't know, I was expecting more for the end. Anyways, they're at their tenth album recording, so that's normal that they're maybe a bit less inspired than their olds albums... Despite this, they're still good to hear and I enjoy each new stuff from them since Blooddrunk actually :)
Xolkyr Its cool to see that someone enjoys their newer stuff! So many people shit on those albums but I love them! :D I dunno what their worst solo would be ... maybe "All twisted" or Relentess reckless forever Those were pretty bland and boring
For me, they never give us weak album. I love them all, knowing diffrence betwen them and band style changes through years. But they always have that uniqe "something" in their music and I love it. COBHC forever! This song is ok, just want full album no singles as bands today drop pieces on YT. PS. COB make one of the best music for high speed night driving car.
this song has some of the most awesome riffs ever 1:19 daaaaaaamn, >20 years listening to COB, Alexi has been a MASSIVE influence in my playing. dreamed of playing like him when i was a kid, accomplished it to some degree. rest in peace hero! your life was short but your influence will be eternal!
this album was released on my birthday it s the most beautiful and also the mournfullest gift ever. I will remember this all my life COBHC will never die and wildchild is an eternal legend
Such a musical genius and influence! Was so looking forward to more music and seeing them live again. You will be sorely missed Alexi! Love and so much respect! May your soul rest in peace and in infinity!🤘🏻😓
This song and band kick asses but their tone has nothing so special tbh just go full mid and treble, add a huge overdrive and that's pretty much it, very simple but I like it too :D
An extremely awesome return .... Great heavy chuggin DAM good all around song REALLY! enjoying new album + CHILDREN OF BODOM is coming back on tour to Pittsburgh Pa USA
That riff from 2:04 - 2:50 amps me up to the point that I could walk straight through an oncoming speeding Mac truck and still have enough strength to start a circle pit in the middle of the interstate. I'm excited for "Hexed"!
Dear Alexi Laiho, your songs and melodies will live forever in our souls. Rest in music, wildchild. 🖤
beautifully said my friend :)
I love this comment
Alexi got me through a hell of a lot..

I agree man. His death has devastated me these last months. I got to meet them the first time I saw them live and Alexi was a real nice guy.
First him. Then miura
Only two ive ever been genuinely stunned to hear about
Same I took a few days off work and just played all their albums in order. He had what seemed like infinite creativity.

Super underrated comment
This is very among beautifully said! 🖤
Im 37 years Old. And i listen this boys for over 20 years... and Hexed is a amazing record. Make me feel like teeanger again. Love this stuff.
32 and still listening COB!! I don't know who's gonna retired earlier :D me or COB! :D
Same here. 36 and feels like Im 16 again.
Im 36 and i agree. Became a fan right after something wild came out
@@danieljung7407 same here, it feel like I lost an old friend. RIP Alexi
The boys are back! COBHC
Graham is that you?
FUCK YEAH!!
Graham you forgot to switch account..!!!
they were back since Halo of Blood no ? if that's what you mean
HATE CREW IS BACK !
I just can't get enough of this song.
Oh my, the lyrics of this song feel very dark with the knowledge of his passing :(
RiP Alexi!
Yeah it gave it a whole different meaning.
Amazing solo. So well constructed, like all of them. A couple Jake E. Lee licks in there, harmonized to perfection.
RIP Alexi, thanks for all your magic.
Really sad to hear that Alexi is no longer with us. He was such a cool guy, and an amazing musical talent. Rest in peace, and to all family and friends: I wish you much strength.
As much as I love this song, it takes on a whole new meaning now. RIP Alexi.
Rest In Peace, Alexi. Hope you're jamming with the Reaper in the Afterlife.
Now, that actually sounds like COB!! Agressive, fast and melodic! Great guitars and keybords! Gotta love this new album!
I was practicing the riffs of this song when I went online to find out this legend had just passed away... Feels like I got kicked hard in the chest. RIP Alexi, forever imortolized by your amazing compositions.
hards riff right ?
One of most important bands in my whole life is back. Stay sober. Great from Poland.
I can say the same! Cheers from Mexico Joachim Zet lml

Słucham ich niemal od początku, pierwsze trzy płyty jak dla mnie najlepsze. Na koncertach miazga :) Pozdrowienia z Krakowa!
I'll drink for that! Cheers
Joachim Zet nie miałeś przypadkiem na myśli "Greetings from Poland"?

I can't belive he is gone , this one hurts .
I think same way...only crying😢
Covid clot shot??
Idiot@@MAGAisVIOLENTcult
RIP alexi laiho we miss you
RIP legend.
these harmonised melodies in the verse sections are just beautiful beyond comprehension
RIP Alexi. You’ve always been my favorite guitarist and your legacy lives on in every track you’ve written. COB \m/
Hexed is my favorite album after the first four. RIP Alexi. He ended on a high note. A great live performance Helsinki, Tavastia and this album is really good.
“This road’s gonna kill me”
Damn...
I headbanged to Bodom in my high school days. Glad to see they are still around and still fuckin shit up
It's been a long time since I really dug COB and I'm really glad to hear this song!
One word....WOW! This album is going to kick major ASS!
I think what you really mean is...YOW!
Oh my God, one of my favorite bands and the first band I've ever listened to is back!😍 I loooove these melodies.🤗
Wow. What a great song
it over took Hatecrew Deathroll as my favorite song.. this kicks ass
Hell yeah! Exceeded my expectations.
This is some of the best COB has done in a long time. It has so many vibes from Hate Crew, and at the same time, we have the neoclassical stuff from the early albums as well.... perfect :D
where are the neo classical parts?
Totally agree
@@dark5hadow Perhaps, the solo passage from 3:56 to 4:00 has some form of neo-classical progression going on
This song kick ass!!! Bruutal, waiting for the album
vähän tuli stone mieleen tossa 2.30 kohilla
Juan martin del potro is a metal fan? Great.
RIP to one of the best shredders! What a legend!
I don't think I've ever heard so many natural harmonics in just one song...
The natural harmonics are kinda odd in a way, usually Alexi uses pinch harmonics... But anyway this song kicks ass.
@@severimansikkamaki8918 He doesnt use pinch harmonics really anymore than his naturals. If your listening for them,.
Have you ever listened to Machine Head? If you have, you've definitely heard plenty of nat. Harmonics lol
Try, ERRA - Irreversible.
You should listen to Zakk Sabbath's version of War Pigs, that is the ultimate harmonic song I think 😅
R.I.P. Alexi. Thank you for inspiring us. COB forever 🤘
This tune is fabulous; love the quirky addons and the notesmithing throughout, this is what I listen to Bodom for
at least Alexi left us with such a great finisher of an album. Hexed is amazing. RIP hero

Yes!!!!!!
This comment didn't age well :'(

All the "COB is back" comments here indeed didn't aged well horribly.
Once cob come no going home..
R.I.P. Alexi. You helped shape my playing style a ton when i was younger.
This guitarist knows what he's doing a man he knows how to make that guitar talk love it just love it
Exactly, Alexi is such a good guitarist and really knows how to compose amazing music
He went and followed the Reaper.
We miss him.
This is going to be great live. Everyone will be moshing or whatever, but when the riff kicks in at 2:04 the whole place will be headbanging in unison. That is always an amazing sight to see.

We need to see Alexi play this song like Under the Grass and the clover!!😍
@hattohanzo not that much its just fast
@@m.poppins4843 play it.
Kick-ass song and whole Hexed album! Rest in Power, Alexi 🙏🖤🤍🌟🇫🇮
Mixing is on point!
When they come back to Pittsburgh Pa soon it'll be my 3rd time seeing CHILDREN OF BODOM live in almost 44 yrs of living
Rest in Power Wildchild
I dont care what anyone says. Loved Children of Bodom since the day I first heard them. Carried me through the years and many hard times. I'm still hurt and will be til I follow Alexi to the ground.
you don't care yet you posted on here?
This album is going to destroy ! New vibes combined with few elements from the past, it won't disappoint i'm sure \m/
I got this on my GranTurismo playlist. Especially when I'm racing any event @ the Nurburgring. My heart beats in sync with both the car & the song at the same time. Everything really truly does become a blur but is a fun blur
La espera no será en vano. Segundo gran adelanto de un disco que, probablemente, nos va a volar la cabeza.
suena cool bro!"
can't wait for the album🤘
Solo in the end is absolute killer
ehhh absolutely not. One of the most boring solos ever done by Laiho in my opinion.
Xolkyr Alexi has done WaY more boring solos. This solo is pretty good in my opinion, but coupd have been a lot better
@@dr.pepperr1409 I'm agreed with you, it's probably not the worst solo. There's a lot of boring solos in previous albums also.

Xolkyr Its cool to see that someone enjoys their newer stuff! So many people shit on those albums but I love them! :D I dunno what their worst solo would be ... maybe "All twisted" or Relentess reckless forever
Those were pretty bland and boring
Sharp and heavy, dark and melodic.
World class album
World is waiting for this album, great sound 🤘
Hell yeah! Horns up brother!

@@GarrettJPeters Awesome! Can't wait for that :)

I'm so saddened by the news. You will be dearly missed Alexi.
Metal never dies
Auloola HoMpPeLi NEVER!
this band have just saved my life.... i have faith in metal and myself again what an awesome track
My kid loves these guys, I thought this song was pretty frigging cool!
The lyric hits hard. Alexi was deppresed as hell badass genius which gave fans around the world tons of joy and fun with his work. So sad.
Rip alexi you will be missed. Rock on
The natural harmonics in this. I am now motivated to use it more in my playing.
Children of bodom and eluveitie. I dont deserve this
Jack Falcon congrats you just did 🤘
Are you going to Masters of Rock?
Metaldays 2018 there were so hot , i've seen both theirs bands.
Wreck of a human mind
Blurring the line
Between what is real
Whats fiction
And what I feel
Wow... didn't expect that. What a Blast!🤟
this song has some of the most awesome riffs ever 1:19 daaaaaaamn, >20 years listening to COB, Alexi has been a MASSIVE influence in my playing. dreamed of playing like him when i was a kid, accomplished it to some degree. rest in peace hero! your life was short but your influence will be eternal!
Children of Bodom never disappoints. Love it. 🤘🏻💕
Two words
Worship Caos
@@chilliwilli923 That Album was their best imo 😍 They never disappoint
They did disappoint though (see last albums)
@@chilliwilli923You mean Halo of Blood

Gracias por tanto Alexi, un abrazo hasta el cielo! horns up!
That's the best first track of an album ever
One of their best albums !!!!!!!
Love the solo
Such a musical genius and influence! Was so looking forward to more music and seeing them live again. You will be sorely missed Alexi! Love and so much respect! May your soul rest in peace and in infinity!🤘🏻😓
It's cool that COB has their own metropolis, I need to visit someday!
This is Children of Bodom man, awesome song and beatiful guitar tone.
This song and band kick asses but their tone has nothing so special tbh
just go full mid and treble, add a huge overdrive and that's pretty much it, very simple but I like it too :D
This could have been a bonus track from Blooddrunk.
Nice to hear the real CoB after all these years again
So fucking true
That harmonic rhythm riff at 3:12 😲😳🤘🇫🇮 🎸 Alexi went out with a bang.
Rip legend!!!😭😭😭
An extremely awesome return .... Great heavy chuggin DAM good all around song REALLY! enjoying new album + CHILDREN OF BODOM is coming back on tour to Pittsburgh Pa USA
Damn this is a really good song, reminded me a lot of Hate Crew ! Good job guys
This song rocks
This Band makes me drink my beer faster...
same here, brother :D
Not sure that's a good thing, however... I agree. Lol.
Best song in this album! Rip wildchild.
To a casual but at times avid listener, such relatable lyrics, such catchy lyrics, such 'we wish we had known at the time' lyrics.
That riff from 2:04 - 2:50 amps me up to the point that I could walk straight through an oncoming speeding Mac truck and still have enough strength to start a circle pit in the middle of the interstate. I'm excited for "Hexed"!
Anyone else love the use of natural harmonics? \m/
My favorite part!
So this was your testament and Paint the Sky with Blood your final sign, you will be forever missed Wildchild...
There are some killer riffs in this song
suka lagu and group band nya...i follow trs y...👍👍🤘🤘☕ salam kopi pagi
This song is quite the hangover cure my friends 🤟🏻🍺
Instant live staple. COB should consider putting this as their final song, it’d be a killer outro with that solo
This is soooo sick! Loved the dissonant kind of semi tonal parts! The licks in there and the song in general sound fucking good
I've been waiting for this day for a long time. They are back the stuff is insane.
Pleasantly surprised, this is a great track all the way through. Good job boys!
I love how they added those harmonics in the different riffs. Damn what a great song, can’t wait for the record to drop!!
Nyt on pojilla meininki kohdallaan.
I have no words, each new CoB theme is a little more life for me... Thanks COBHC!
