CHILDREN OF BODOM's new album, titled
"Skeletons In The Closet", was released on September 23 through
Spinefarm. The follow-up to last year'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 kicked off a month-long North American headlining tour on Friday, September 18 at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel in Providence, Rhode Island. Support acts on the trek are
THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER and
SKELETONWITCH.
