Swedish metallers BLINDED COLONY have posted the video for the first single, 'Once Bitten, Twice Shy', from their upcoming Bedtime Prayers album at their MySpace page, at their official website and at the newly launched Pivotal Rockordings YouTube channel.

Bedtime Prayers which is due out January 9th worldwide and January 12th in Europe.

The video was filmed in the band’s hometown of Karlshamn and was produced by director Thomas Tjäder (IN FLAMES).

Guitarist Tobias Olsson had the following to say regarding the video: "As you can see we release our the official video for 'Once Bitten, Twice Shy' today. It was originally recorded in late 2005, but re-edited once again by Thomas Tjäder (In Flames), check it out and let us know what you think about it! Some of you may have seen the old version of the video with ‘demo’ version of 'Once Bitten, Twice Shy', but we encourage you to not watch that one since it is now outdated. Check out the new one, spread it to your friends, and enjoy it!”

Blinded Colony will be on the road in Europe/UK with Hungary’s EKTOMORF for an extensive tour in February and March.

Tobbe Olsson had the following to say regarding the tour: "We are doing a European tour together with Ektomorf stretching from the 1st of February to the 10th of March. This is what Blinded Colony has been working for all these years and finally the hard work have paid off! We are excited to hit the road with Ektomorf also since we had such a great time with them in Germany earlier this month! We are really looking forward to going back to Germany and playing to the awesome crowds there as well as our first trip to the UK. We know we have a great fan base there and we certainly look forward to giving everyone in Europe the chance to finally see us live!”
