Children of Bodom release new video
"Was It Worth It?", the new music video from hard rocking Finnish metal band CHILDREN OF BODOM is now available for viewing via Microsoft Zune (at this location). "Was It Worth It?" is the first single from COB's new album Relentless Reckless Forever, which will be released on March 8 via Spinefarm Records / Universal Music. Fans that don't yet have the Zune software can download it at this location.
CHILDREN OF BODOM shot the "Was It Worth It?" video on location at central Pennsylvania's Action Sports compound Camp Woodward, joining forces with two-time X Games gold medalist and two-time Thrasher Magazine "Skater of the Year" Chris Cole and noted pro skaters Jamie Thomas, Garrett Hill and Tom Asta to deliver a one-of-a-kind "audio and visual experience" that perfectly captures the band's live intensity. Filmed and directed by Dale Resteghini for Raging Nation Films (Pink Floyd, Santana, Mötley Crüe), the video was shot guerrilla style, sans treatment; honing in directly on CHILDREN OF BODOM's high-spirited fire and the skaters' eye-opening execution.
Recorded with famed rock producer Matt Hyde (Slayer, Monster Magnet), Relentless Reckless Forever is the seventh studio album of CHILDREN OF BODOM's illustrious career and the first new record from the band since 2008's Blooddrunk, which debuted at #22 on Billboard's Top 200 Chart and scored the quintet its third consecutive #1 debut in Finland. Relentless Reckless Forever's high-energy hooks and electric energy forge stadium-sized heavy metal anthems that seethe with both marvelous musicianship and a phenomenal pop prowess. COB's unique union of haunting melodies, guitar-and-keyboard interplay and king-size solos is supercharged to the maximum on the LP and the resulting record is poised to push the band - already on the brink of breakout success in the U.S. - to an altogether new pinnacle.
