CHILDREN OF BODOM: More UK Signing Sessions Announced

October 13, 2008

Finnish metallers CHILDREN OF BODOM will release their new single, "Smile Pretty For The Devil", in the UK on December 1 to coincide with the first date on their run of UK shows with SLIPKNOT and MACHINE HEAD.

The third single from BODOM's internationally successful "Blooddrunk" album will be available on three-track CD, with the accompanying video plus POISON cover "Talk Dirty To Me" also featured. This release (strictly limited to 1,000 numbered copies) will come in a poster bag and will ONLY be on sale at two Zavvi stores in London and Manchester, where CHILDREN OF BODOM are now confirmed for in-store appearances.

Signing sessions:

Dec. 01 - Zavvi, 14-16 Oxford Street, London W1D 1AR
Dec. 09 - Zavvi, Arndale Centre, Unit MSU1, New Cannon Street, Manchester M4 3AJ

Also available at the in-stores will be picture-disc versions of CHILDREN OF BODOM's debut outing, "Something Wild", plus blood-red vinyl copies of the "Blooddrunk" album itself, both very limited in quantity; however, anyone wishing to attend the London or Manchester events will need to contact the respective Zavvi store upfront in order to collect a wristband, as numbers for the signings will have to restricted due to the band's early soundcheck times.

CHILDREN OF BODOM's new album, "Blooddrunk", landed at position No. 22 on The Billboard 200 chart after selling over 19,000 copies in its first week of release.

Henkka Seppälä and CHILDREN OF BODOM guitarist/vocalist Alexi Laiho have launched a clothing line by the name of Wildchild Industries. According to a posting on the CHILDREN OF BODOM fan site Scythes-Of-Bodom.com, "many ideas for their designs come from Alexi himself, hence the name of the company. Even though Alexi and Henkka are involved with Wildchild Industries and it goes by Alexi's stage name, their products are not CHILDREN OF BODOM merchandise or strictly related to the band in other ways."
