Biography

Children of Bodom, formed in 1993 in Finland, blended heavy and extreme metal with melodic hooks, humor, and expert guitar work by lead guitarist Alexi Laiho. Their signature sound, showcased on albums like Something Wild (1997) and Hate Crew Deathroll (2003), gained a global following and chart success, including a Top 25 hit with Blooddrunk in 2008. The band's lineup changes and relentless touring schedule led to a diverse discography, with highlights like I Worship Chaos (2015) and Hexed (2019). Following Laiho's passing in late 2020, Children of Bodom released A Chapter Called Children of Bodom in 2023, documenting their final concert.

Founded by Alexi Laiho and Jaska Raatikainen, Children of Bodom, originally known as Inearthed, signed with Spinefarm Records in 1997 and quickly gained recognition with their debut album Something Wild. The band's evolution included lineup changes, with standout albums like Follow the Reaper (2000) and Blooddrunk (2008) solidifying their status as a Finnish metal powerhouse. Despite challenges like injuries and departures, Children of Bodom persevered, leaving a lasting impact on the metal scene before disbanding in 2019. A Chapter Called Children of Bodom serves as a fitting tribute to their legacy and Alexi Laiho's influential contributions.
