Vai, Malmsteen, or even Satch could all go and join death metal bands and play blistering metal solos/riffs, but they don't. Cuz they have taste. :p

Alexi is not the typical death metal vocalist you think of. He is nothing like Cannibal Corpse. I cant listen to CC becuase of the vocalist, but I came around to liking Laiho after a while. Sure Id change it if I could, but I focus on the guitar rather than the voice.
