Children of Bodom revealed on Friday they have signed a deal with Nuclear Blast Records, which will release the band's 8th studio album early next year. "We had a good, productive and long run with Spinefarm Records for fifteen years and now it's simply just time for a change," read a statement from frontman Alexi Laiho. "I'm absolutely stoked to start the new chapter of Children of Bodom's career with Nuclear Blast and look forward to working with them." The move is something of a step back in time for Children of Bodom, as the Finnish metal veterans began their career with Nuclear Blast some 15 years ago.
