Seen from afar, it’s easy to dismiss Children Of Bodom as just another band of speed metal pretty boys that spend more time blackening their nails than writing good songs, but a closer look reveals the amazing guitar talent of leader Alexi Laiho. The Jackson Randy Rhoads-wielding Finn is a true modern day shredder with impeccable chops, speed, a great melodic sense and an ability to come up with killer riffs that never ceases to impress.
