CHILDREN OF BODOM: On 'Blooddrunk' - How To Party On The Road!
28.05.2008 | Source: Blabbermouth
Headbanger's Blog caught up with CHILDREN OF BODOM frontman Alexi Laiho and keyboardist Janne Wirman to discuss the band's new album "Blooddrunk", Laiho's accident-prone ways and how to party on the road without losing control.
Watch the clips below.
"Blooddrunk" sold 19,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release. This is roughly four times the opening tally of its predecessor, "Are You Dead Yet?", which premiered with 5,000 units back in October 2005 to land at No. 195.
"Blooddrunk" was certified gold in Finland (for sales in excess of 15,000 copies) on pre-sales alone — before it was even officially released — a first for the band.
