Children of Bodom are friggen road warriors – they have been touring virtually non-stop for 20 years now. Their new single, "The Road" celebrates their journeys in vans and busses and planes across the world.
Frontman Alexi Laiho notes "'This Road' was actually the last song I wrote but it ended up being the opening track and also one of the singles which makes me happy 'cause it’s one of my faves. It’s different from anything we’ve done since Follow the Reaper but it’s still new. Check it out and you’ll know what I mean."
Children of Bodom's 10th studio album, Hexed is out March 8 on Nuclear Blast. Here are the band's upcoming tour dates with Swallow the Sun and Wolfheart.
