BODOM AFTER MIDNIGHT have announced a new EP!
Titled Paint The Sky With Blood, the upcoming EP from the band will mark a tribute to their fallen comrade, Alexi Laiho, who sadly passed away last month. The EP is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Napalm Records.
The upcoming EP was recorded in Finland last year and was meant to be the beginning of an exciting new chapter. Sadly, that chapter ended far too soon, and now, the three-track piece embodies a whole new meaning. Paint The Sky With Blood is an overwhelming tribute to Alexi Laiho and an exceptional sonic heritage, and at the same time, a modern homage to the genre itself.
Speaking about the upcoming EP, the band says, “like ourselves, Alexi was beyond stoked about these songs and anxious to get these out so we are happy that we can fulfil his wish. Needless to say that we are honoured and proud to be a part of his very last creative work and unleash it the way he wanted it to. It’s time to let the beast out of the cage one more time as a celebration of Alexi’s music, legacy and the man himself.”
This album will be released on 23rd April, not 16th.
