Children Of Bodom Announce North American Tour In Celebration Of Their 15th Anniversary!

There is no doubt that Finland's proudest Heavy Metal export is Children Of Bodom! Why? Well, not only has the band been hard at work since their inception in 1993, but they have constantly reinvented their musical craft while keeping their aspirations intact. It has just been announced that the band will be embarking on a North American headlining tour in early 2012, in celebration of their 15th anniversary.

Presented by ESP in association with Full Metal Jackie, this not to be missed tour kicks off on January 30, 2012 in Rochester, New York and runs through March 4th, hitting 26 cities over the course of the five-week trek. Joining the Fins' on tour will be the Swiss folk Metal band Eluveiti, Boston extreme metal act Revocation and Canada's Threat Signal.

Commented Threat Signal vocalist, Jon Howard, “Threat Signal is ready to tear North America a new ***hole! Fresh out of the studio with our new self-titled release, we are very anxious to get on the road to shred some new music. We'll be playing songs from all three records, however we'll be focusing more on new material. Touring with Children Of Bodom has been a dream of ours since we started the band, so to be on this tour is just insane. We'll be giving it all we've got, so be prepared for a f**kin’ slaughter!”
