Children of Bodom co-founder, guitarist and frontman Alexi Laiho s cause of death has been revealed by his widow and former Synergy bandmate, Kimberly Goss. She said the forensic report confirmed the musician died of alcohol-induced degeneration of the liver and pancreas connective tissue and that he also had a cocktail of painkiller, opioids and insomnia medication in his system.
Laiho died in his home in Finland on Dec. 29 of last year, although news of his passing broke early in 2021 where it was noted that the rocker had been battling long-term health issues.
Goss, whom Laiho was still married to under Finnish law prior to his death (the two separated and Laiho later married Kelli-Wright Laiho, though the two parties dispute this status), stated on Instagram she is legally entitled to the forensic report before naming the cause of death.

That said, out of respect for Alexi s name, his musical legacy, and BraveWords longstanding relationship with Alexi and Children Of Bodom, which dates back to 1998, and out of respect to his friends and family, the posts have been permanently removed fr
Children of Bodom founder Alexi Laiho was laid to rest at a private funeral service in his home country of Finland on Jan. 28.
Laiho was just 41 at the time of his death in late 2020, though the news of his passing did not break until early in the new year. It was said the Bodom guitarist and vocalist had been battling long-term health issues in recent years, which contributed to his untimely end.
The musician s widow, Kelli Wright-Laiho, shared two photos from the service on Instagram, the first being the service program, which confirms the previously unreported date of his death Dec. 29, 2020. In the second photo in the slideshow post, Laiho s casket is positioned in front of a Christian altar, adorned with flowers.
