Publisher's Synopsis
For the first time members of the band tell the story of Children of Bodom in their own words. Henkka, Janne, Jaska and Alexander recall the founding of the band with their lost brother Alexi Laiho and the struggles, adventures and triumphs they experienced in the more than thirty years that followed. To outsiders, everything looked good: a booming career that had taken the band to ever-larger stages around the world. At the same time, it was clear within the band that the end was just around the corner. Conflicts led to the breakup of Children of Bodom in 2019, and just a year later, band leader Alexi had died. Drawing on personal memories and new interviews with the band conducted by Finnish best-selling author and long-time friend of the band Timo Isoaho, the official Children of Bodom book tells the whole story, warts and all, of the groundbreaking melodic death metal band.
