Alexi Laiho has alot to learn....He is still young. I can't wait for him to take it to the next level. COB latest album blew. I was SORELY disappointed.


Speaking of Alexi (Who I met at the 9:30 club, great guy, but he was drunk) have you listened to Sinergy? I like his stuff better there then in COB

And I am hoping you didn't just call Michael Romeo's band "Sea of Lies" :ROFL:
 
Although, We must remember our roots...

I have been a guitarist for 10 years now and while I agree both are great guitarist, but Micheal Angelo is not all that great in the sense that he plays the same scale over and over again and it's incredibly easy to play it fast. I can even video tape myself playing one of his scales and BAM I am Micheal Angelo.

However Micheal Romeo is something different very unique and can play some unimmaginable things especially live and I have seen him 4 times so far. He really focuses on Arpeggios and really creates a song as Micheal Angelo is bascially Jimi Hendrix just play a bunch mumbo jumbo on the stage.

Don't Get me Wrong though Angelo is a GREAT guitarists but i just don't like his playing techniques

Though Yngwie malmsteen has one of the greatest musical minds on the earth today. He is a musical Genious. One of the best Neo-Classical/ Classical guitar players. As well as Joe Stump Rob Marcello but the list goes on!

The song that you yourself posted is called "Sea of Lies". :screwy: of course you would already know that if you listened to it.

He was good in Sinergy but he's much better now. He progressed dramatically. Yes...He does have a lot of to learn but then again every professional or amateur guitarist has a lot to learn. There is never a point where you have learned "everything" when it comes to music. I also don't like COB as a whole band. I just like Alexi since he is the songwriter...

What? Alexi does guitars and writes the lyrics (which blows, btw)

Warman does more the Alexi as far as writing...

Exactly. Alexi writes all the guitar parts and writes all the lyrics which makes him the songwriter. He's also the lead singer and lead guitarist. He's the heart of the band. Without him there would be no COB.

No, not really. He plays a huge part, but so does Warman.

Michael Romeo writes everything. Incredible lyrics, all guitar bass drums and classical parts.



An excellent guitarist who is a mediocre lyricist can always be replaced...
