May 8, 2008

"Hellhounds On My Trail", the new CHILDREN OF BODOM single, is all set for release on June 9 via Spinefarm Records UK. The follow-up to the "Blooddrunk" single, also the title of the Finnish band's latest album, "Hellhounds" will be made available on two separate formats:

* CD single featuring two cover versions (by KENNY ROGERS and ALICE COOPER),three live tracks recorded at the London Astoria in March 2008 plus the "Hellhounds" video.
* 12" picture disc.

Both formats will come with brand new artwork exclusive to the UK version of the single.

To support the release of "Hellhounds", CHILDREN OF BODOM has lined up signing sessions at Zavvi stores in Ireland and Scotland; the first is in Dublin (Dundrum) on June 11 at 4:30 p.m., and the second in Glasgow (Buchanan St.) on June 12 at 5:00 p.m. The band will also play live in both towns:

June 11 - Dublin, Vicar Street
June 12 - Glasgow, Carling Academy

"Blooddrunk", the new album from CHILDREN OF BODOM, sold 19,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release. This is roughly four times the opening tally of its predecessor, "Are You Dead Yet?", which premiered with 5,000 units back in October 2005 to land at No. 195.

"Blooddrunk" was certified gold in Finland (for sales in excess of 15,000 copies) on pre-sales alone before it was even officially released a first for the band.
