CHILDREN OF BODOM Recording Demos For New Album

June 15, 2010

Bassist Henkka Seppälä (a.k.a. Henkka T. Blacksmit) of Finnish metallers CHILDREN OF BODOM has issued the following update:

"So yesterday we recorded some demos for the new stuff. Jaska's [Raatikainen] drums earlier, Alexi [Laiho, guitar/vocals] and me did our share yesterday. Roope [Latvala, guitar] will be doing today.

"It's exciting!

"Couple of more months and we will start recording for real.

"Can't really wait how the new shit sounds when it's actually all done.

"While recording we will hit the festivals, which is cool.

"We never left the studio like this, in the middle of recording process, so let's see how it affects, or if it affects at all."

"Skeletons In The Closet", the latest album from CHILDREN OF BODOM, entered the official chart in the band's home country at position No. 9.

"Skeletons In The Closet" was released on September 23, 2009 through Spinefarm. The follow-up to 2008's "Blooddrunk" is a selection of cover versions, some of them existing recordings, others specially laid down for this release.

CHILDREN OF BODOM has been recording covers since the early days of its career, some predictably heavy ("Silent Scream" by SLAYER, for example),others reflecting an altogether broader taste ("Talk Dirty To Me" by POISON).

CHILDREN OF BODOM recently completed a month-long North American headlining tour. The 20-city trek launched on September 18 at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel in Providence, Rhode Island and wrapped on October 14 in Honolulu, Hawaii. Support on the tour came from THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER and SKELETONWITCH.

CHILDREN OF BODOM is featured in a recent episode of "Hard" on the newly launched AUX music channel out of Canada. Watch the segment below.
