Hell Yeah! It is 2008 and I wish you a great new heavy metal year! It is time to kickstart this new metal year, and what would be a good band for the very first post in 2008? Certainly it is Children of Bodom because they are one of my favourite bands and they come from my home country. Children of Bodom is going to release their new album, called Blooddrunk, in February. What’s up with C.O.B.? They have been shooting a video in Berlin in December 2007, and according to their website, the new videos look really cool already now. I am looking forward to watch them!

The Rockhouse Method is going to release a comprehensive instructional DVD of Alexi Laiho guitar techniques. According to C.O.B. website, “content on the DVD will feature fundamental techniques, as well as helping aspiring players develop the skills needed to play Alexi’s style and will be geared toward intermediate to advanced players“. The DVD will be released in March or April 2008. Notice that “Alexi’s instructional DVD will be available at MI retailers around the world for $24.99 and will come with a free lesson booklet and membership to Rock House’s lesson support at their website where students get supplementary support for the lessons featured on the DVD“, as said in C.O.B. homepage.

Just to mention, Children of Bodom has been confirmed to play in Wacken Open Air metal festival in Germany in 2008. They will also play in London in March 8th 2008. See more gigs in Children of Bodom website.
