Children of Bodom getBlooddrunk

Mon 10th Mar, 2008 in Local News

They’ve been described as one of the biggest contemporary metal bands in the world. If the sold-out 2005 Australian tour by Children of Bodom is an indication, then this claim holds more than a grain of truth.

The Finnish quintet will return to Australia for a run of highly anticipated shows on the back of their sixth release, Blooddrunk.

Featuring charismatic front-man Alexi Laiho, the band will showcase their unique mix of melodic death metal, killer riffs, guitar solos and keyboards to their rapidly growing fan base. Children of Bodom have featured on the line up of prestigious overseas tours recently, including Unholy Alliance Tour with Slayer and Lamb of God, and 2008’s US Gigantour. They’re also set to perform at the upcoming Monsters of Rock and Wacken Open Air.

One can only expect a world class performance from the band when they hit our shores again in June. Tickets go on sale on Monday 17th March, 2008.
