10 Great Clips Remembering CHILDREN OF BODOM's Alexi Laiho

Alexi Laiho

We can't be the only ones who spent the whole day listening to Children of Bodom after the sad news of the passing of frontman Alexi Laiho at the age of 41. Tributes have been coming in from all over the rock world. I, personally, fell down a rabbit hole of Alexi videos, including some great clips from our Metal Injection archives.

Here are the 10 best Alexi clips on the internet right now…

It's hard to overstate what a great guitarist Alexi was, and nothing seals the deal like this video where he plays the Vivaldi classic theme with ease.

Alexi Laiho is a metal icon and a record setter, literally. Laiho was joined by 100 other guitarists at the Helsinki festival in 2015 for a special performance dubbed "100 Guitars From Hell" featuring guitarists from around the globe shredding their heads off at Senate Square in Helsinki. More info on the project can be found here

Alexi Teaching The Kids on Louder Education

Alexi and Janne in 2009

It's wild looking back at this interview from 2009, where Alexi talks about how drinking helps him with his insomnia and how they initiated Randy Blythe into the COBHC.

Our final interview with Alexi was in 2015, when he and Janne discussed how their partying days were behind them.
