For 20 years Finnish extreme metal band Children of Bodom have incorporated different sub genres of metal music such as thrash metal, melodic death metal and power metal into their music. Albums like Something Wild, Halo of Blood, Hate Crew Deathroll and I Worship Chaos have kept metal rockers Alexi Laiho, Jaska Raatikainen, Henkka Seppälä, Janne Wirman and Daniel Freyberg adored by fans all over the world. Yet and still it’s been two years since their most recent project, I Worship Chaos, dropped and Children of Bodom fans are eager to here new music and seems like their eagerness will come to an end sooner then expected.
According to reports from Blabbermouth, Children of Bodom has been recently putting in work on creating new album. During an interview with The Salt Lake Tribune, the band’s bassist player Henkka Seppälä said that the group had been writing during the fall and that they are half way done yet still isn’t sure of the direction of the new album stating “We’ve been already writing the whole fall, actually. We have almost half the new album. So we’ll go back and do some more new songs. And then, in the spring, we’re gonna start laying the tracks. Regarding the direction, I don’t know. It’s always hard. For me, for some reason, I’m incapable of describing any direction that we go. There’s always something new, and it’s always somehow refreshing to me to do the new songs. I’m very, very excited. Very, very excited.” Seppälä also went on to say that the new “album should be mastered by the summer” but isn’t certain of its release date
