Finland's Children Of Bodom will release their tenth album, Hexed, on March 8th via Nuclear Blast Records. Today, Alexi Laiho discusses the lyrical themes of Hexed. Watch the second album trailer below.

"They just come from real life, real feelings. Anything that is negative that is happening inside my head that I need to get out some how.. I need to vent all the negative stuff that is going on in side my head, it is the best and safest  way for me to do it. I channel my shit feelings to the music and at least try to turn it into something positive."

In the first trailer, Laiho discusses the album title, Hexed, as well as how the idea to have the cover painted came to fruition:

Hexed will be available in the following formats:
