Ahhh Bodom. Alexi is gone, but the music lives on… All recorded before he died, this is what takes over from the Children of Bodom breakup thing and Alexi’s new band… which we all know he was the main writer… this has that same sound without a real prominent keyboard sound and just a heavy blackened melodic death inspired greatness.
