Alexander Kuoppala (born 11 April 1974) is a Finnish musician. He was the guitarist for the Finnish melodic death metal band Children of Bodom from 1995 to 2003.[1] He played on their albums Something Wild,[2] Hatebreeder,[3] Follow the Reaper,[4] and Hate Crew Deathroll.[5] He also plays on the Timo Rautiainen album Sarvivuori.[6]
Children of Bodom's first world tour began in 2003 and lasted until late 2004. The tour had many sold-out concerts and marked the consolidation of the band in North America, but was also accompanied by an unexpected announcement: Kuoppala decided to quit Children of Bodom for personal reasons right in the middle of the tour. Laiho's bandmate from Sinergy, Roope Latvala assumed the guitars as a session player, until later joining the band as Kuoppala's replacement.Шаблон:Citation needed
