Bodom Facts

  • Only 666 copies of the Blooddrunk 12 inch vinyls have been made
  • Despite popular belief, Children Of Bodom NEVER recorded cover songs of Iron Maiden's "The Trooper" (actual cover by Sentenced) or Europe's "Final Countdown" (covered by Norther and Dispatched)
  • Janne Warman who has been known to drink a whole bottle of Bacardi during a one hour show, had been taken off the stage by the security once during a show in Europe. The security thought he was some 'random idiot' playing the keyboards.
  • After the release of Something Wild, Alexi Laiho attempted to commit suicide with sleeping pills. He spent a week in coma before being reanimated.
  • In the original version of the album Something Wild, there is a hidden 8th track called "Bruno the Pig". It is just 11 seconds of silence.
  • To become a member of the Children Of Bodom Hate Crew you need to stand on your head while the band pours alcohol into your mouth. If the alcohol comes out of your nose, you are initiated. Some members of tour mates Lamb Of God are certified members of the Children Of Bodom Hate Crew.
