CHILDREN OF BODOM - The Ugly World Tour 2011 -

Finland's most successful metal export CHILDREN OF BODOM announces “The Ugly World Tour 2011”   CHILDREN OF BODOM are undoubtedly among the hardest-working live acts in the world. Not only do the energetic shows featuring exceptional guitarist Alexi Laiho and his bandmates Roope Latvala, Jaska Raatikainen, Janne Viljami “Warman” Wirman, Henkka “T. Blacksmith” Seppälä create a stir, but also the incredible tour schedule. The Finns have spent nearly their entire youth on tour buses. After the European tour with SLIPKNOT and MACHINE HEAD ended in the fall of 2008, C.O.B. practically moved from one nightliner to the next.

With the enormously successful album “BLOODDRUNK,” C.O.B. achieved the highest chart positions in the band's history. Like their previous albums, “BLOODDRUNK” stormed to number 1 on the Finnish album charts, made the Top 10 in nearly all European countries, as well as in Japan, and for the first time entered the album Top 25 of the US Billboard charts. The CHILDREN OF BODOM virus knows no borders. 
In the fall of last year, C.O.B. completed their, believe it or not, 1 ½ year “BLOODDRUNK World Tour.” The tour took the band around the globe twice!

  Now the CHILDREN OF BODOM battleship is being freshly loaded again and will soon set sail.
The gentlemen from the far north have just confirmed a two-month European tour that will take the band through 23 European countries.
The tour will kick off in Finland on March 19, 2011, and will conclude on May 15 in Antwerp.   Rock Hard & Guitar present: CHILDREN OF BODOM
