I played most of the leads and all the solos from Children Of Bodom's 1999 album Hatebreeder. I used my Jackson Stars RR-J2SP through a Korg PX4 direct into the PC. Enjoy!
The day Alexi passed i remembered this chanel and this amazing player! I used to spend countless of hours watching your covers again and again with this legendary guitar like 10 or so years ago! I hope you are doing great man!!!
@@MitchD21 What happened to Alexi, oh man that hit me hard 😭 I met him just by chance somewhere near the Nosturi where COB had a gig that night. I'm half Venezuelan, half Finnish and I was visiting Helsinki (my mom's hometown). I had a meeting with my friend at Nosturi and when I left, Alexi just appeared alone around the corner carrying his guitar case.. I just said 'hi Alexi, so COB have a gig tonight, right?'. Apparently, this was a good opening for the conversation we had. He was so nice to me, so polite, humble, a guy down to earth. We talked like 20 minutes (even though he was in a hurry). He gave me 3 signed tour t-shirts and a few picks and I didn't even ask him to give me anything! This is how generous he was to his fans. I almost hoped that he'd given me that super cool pink-black ESP guitar lol. Now I'm living in Spain but visited Finland for Christmas. On Christmas Day I visited his grave, it was kind of a pilgrimage... It was emotionally hard, but when I laid the flowers I brought with me on the grave, it was a beautiful moment in a way. He left way too soon, a talented musician like he was, he would have had a lot to give to the metal music scene. Sorry for the long post, just needed to left some steam out ya know. Te mando un fuerte abrazo 💜 Saludos cordiales desde Las Palmas, Gran Canaria 💖💕
here I am, 12 years later, much better at playing guitar, but still amazed by how clean these leads and solos were. Thanks for being such an inspiration in my tonal quest mister mitch
Bro your playing is so sick , I listen to the video 12 years after I got my guitar degree ! You should make some new videos bro . Hate Crew Deathtoll !
@@MitchD21 Are you interested in a collaboration tribute for Alexi . We can do something from the good old days . Please message me if your interested I have a small team and we are ready to start work . Obviously online unless you plan on visiting London ;)
@@TegrityMusic unfortunately I’m not in a position to take you up on this and haven’t been for a year or so, hence why I’ve not really done anything. I noticed a lot of tribute stuff go out and it sucked I wasn’t able to contribute 😢
@@MitchD21 Sorry to hear that bro ! I hope you get back into sweeping picking , tapping and dialling mid frequencies as soon as possible . If you ever consider getting back to it, give me a shout , and I’m gonna arrange a Tegrity cover ! Rock on !
Hmm, I don't remember exactly when this was recorded as this is my 2nd TH-cam account but I started playing around 2001/2002 if I remember so I'd say 6/7 years or so.
@EvilKatarn Nah, I didn't have the JE-1000 at this point, I think it was still the JE-1200. I do love that wah type sound the 1000 has, best tone! And thanks! :)
@badmotherfuckerer Bit of all actually. I transcribe my own stuff so I use live audio and video clips to help me if I can't figure it out from the CD and also to clarify the fingerings of the riffs.
@AggroAuenlandRecords It's called civitype. Type it into google and you can download it. then just copy and paste the file into your windows fonts folder.
You have nice attack in your picking and are dead on tight, and very articulate, no sloppienes around your playing....But the thing that impressed me the most was that you actually could sit down and play a RR! =)
Are you using the JE-1000 in here too? I have an EMG ALX with the ABQ boost/frequency thingy, and it's quite decent, but not as amazing as the JE-1000. The last one has more of a cool wah-wah effect to it. Oh, and... Awesome playing, man.
Hi Mitch! Your videos are insane. What's the chance you have the tabs for Towards Dead End laying around somewhere? The way you play it looks / sounds super accurate to me.
Thanks man. I probably do on my pc but all that is in storage unfortunately, worth an ask on the COB forum, I used to upload on there but I don’t think the links I did work anymore and I haven’t logged on there in years haha
@EliteWoWDotCom Do you mean the scale run? It's just legato all the way down, I don't pick at all, I pick the first note at the 17th fret and then just do hammer ons onto the other strings to sound the notes.
Well anyway sounds well and good cleaning .... I'm studying all the music theory ... and very difficult but I manage .... with techic are forward me the cable
You disgust me!! This is so incredible, good job! I noticed you took a few creative liberties, but one arpeggio you play has two actual errors around 3:20 in your video. If you listen to Bed of Razors at 2:32 in the actual song, the guitar stays high, it doesn't go back down. (lol sorry for lack of actual musical terminology). And within that set of arpeggios, in the lower chord, you're playing a wrong note that you repeat with each sweep. Aside from that, I was mesmerized for the whole thing.
RIP Alexi, best tribute video i can imagine!
Thanks man! 😃
No way!!! Why am I only finding this out now!!
I love the solo on the song Hatebreeder. My favorite solo ever.
the first movement is so very very cool, nice solo.
The day Alexi passed i remembered this chanel and this amazing player! I used to spend countless of hours watching your covers again and again with this legendary guitar like 10 or so years ago! I hope you are doing great man!!!
Thank u Dimitris! What a shame about Alexi 😥

Thanks for the comments guys, still one of my fave videos that I've recorded!

a much needed video. Beautiful
Thanks!!
I planned to do all the albums, but there's always one song on each album with some really difficult bit in one solo, ARGH!!
These leads reminds me of "Fallen, Pt.1" by "Hex" (only in spotify) it's a same intensivity banger as this:)
Love from India .. RIP Alexi wildchild
Just awesome !
Especially towards dead end live solo , it's exactly the seoul live solo !
DAT TONE
my 25 years playing punk rock are wasted...
That was just beyond perfect..for a moment i thought alexi was playing..great job
2020 STILL THE BEST COB COVERS GUITARER))))))
Thank you!! 😛
You stole Alexi´s guitar! is the same one! you stole his hands too. Awesome bro.
hatebreeder (song) outro solos are so good! quality performance man xoxox ;)
I always enjoyed your cover. It's clean and you hit every note nicely. Alexi would be proud 🙏

Great one.
WOO

Great great playing man..
Awesome
dude, you are fucking awesome!!!!! excellent!
@dult33 Thanks man! The "COB" solo isn't too east, and Warheart has some tricky moments, the rest are simple but just played quickly.
Thanks!!
And yes, PX4 only.
holy shit dude!
@EvilKatarn Nah, I didn't have the JE-1000 at this point, I think it was still the JE-1200. I do love that wah type sound the 1000 has, best tone!
And thanks! :)
what a melodical album. It's so sad that after Follow The Reaper - the melodies and musicality disappeared and they started doing "brutal" songs
Sick!
how here's a guitarist that deserves fame
I did have on my old account. :-(
And I transcribe by ear, but my tabs are in the link on my page.
Sweet tone dude and good job =)
@Milesbakerforguitar Thank you! I'd been playing 8 years when I recorded this I think!

cool cool...... you're great..... )))

thank
oikein hyvääää :DDD
vittu!
Thank you!! XD
@98diegoz COBHC Offical Forum. He himself made a "Tab Thread" there.
My fuckin love solos were hetebreeder, black widow and wrath within
@ContraCommando Thanks mate!
@AggroAuenlandRecords It's called civitype. Type it into google and you can download it. then just copy and paste the file into your windows fonts folder.
Simply awesome! and you have this tone just with your korg PX4 ?
Keep on rocking man.
@cobarethebest Haha, drink beer indeed! Guitar tone said yes. !!
You have nice attack in your picking and are dead on tight, and very articulate, no sloppienes around your playing....But the thing that impressed me the most was that you actually could sit down and play a RR! =)
You have same kinda picking style that i have :P Very nice job ;)
im speechless..........\m/\m/
@Tie4821 I bought it online from Japan, it's now discontinued though!
Haha awesome! =)
i've visited that site a couple of times, didnt know you had made it ;) so thats cool.
..how long have you been playing?
Are you using the JE-1000 in here too?
I have an EMG ALX with the ABQ boost/frequency thingy, and it's quite decent, but not as amazing as the JE-1000. The last one has more of a cool wah-wah effect to it.
Oh, and... Awesome playing, man.
This was amazing I'm sure alexi would think so too. How did u learn all these solos? I'm trying to learn them by ear myself
Hi Mitch! Your videos are insane. What's the chance you have the tabs for Towards Dead End laying around somewhere? The way you play it looks / sounds super accurate to me.

@@MitchD21 Sounds good! I tried to post there the other day actually, I'll check to see if there's any follow ups (:

favorite, like & subscribed+it made my fukin day
@dayiiv Hmm not really, it's a pretty clean sound as I've been trying to get it to sound as similar to COB/Sinergy as possible.
Well anyway sounds well and good cleaning .... I'm studying all the music theory ... and very difficult but I manage .... with techic are forward me the cable
About 8 years ago.
Amazing. How long have you playing..?
@whitetower94 Bought it online from Japan.
Where have you taken this guitar from? Did you just add sticker, or you bought such a guitar. Please answer!
nice job dude have you ever heard about jeff loomis ? it will be nice if you make some vids like this from him and his band nevermore
Hey do you use a sound card between the px4 when u record? If yes which do you use?
@ferociouspokemachine You'll get there soon! :D
How long you was playing guitar, when you recorded this video? :)
8:25

Hello! What kind of electronics do you use, pickups, preamps, cabinets?
Please do Something Wild!

No, Alexi got his guitar stolen, he is using it.
I love this guitar.. so can you give me wep site where you bought this guitar? answer please))
@AlienMagi lol I have.
