The latest incarnation of Children Of Bodom will be back onstage next year for a co-headlining set at the annual ‘Tuska‘ festival in Helsinki, Finland. That event will run from July 02nd to 04th. This past February saw key surviving members of the melodic death metal band reunite for their first two shows since hanging it up in 2019. Tragically, the band’s vocalist/guitarist Alexi Laiho died in 2020.
Those aforementioned shows not only paid tribute to Laiho, but also the band’s legacy as a whole. Guitarist/vocalist Alexander Kuoppala, bassist Henkka Seppälä, keyboardist Janne Wirman and drummer Jaska Raatikainen returned for those sets, which found Lost Society vocalist/guitarist Samy Elbanna taking over for Laiho.
