Reviews "Great! Children Of Bodom present themselves as strong as never before on "Halo Of Blood" and unleash a real firework of melodies and aggression." Tim Röttges, Sonic Seducer "COB return to their successful early phase (first two albums) but also enter new stylistic territory with 2-3 songs. This balanced blend makes the new material more compelling than before." Anzo Sadoni, Metal Hammer "...with "Halo Of Blood" comes another uncompromising Spielart record from Scandinavia, and there's no doubting the quality of its craftsmanship - and from an icon of the genre." Dominik Irrtenkauf, Legacy " Shimmering keyboard runs and riff build-ups - what more could you want from Children of Bodom. The Finns certainly don't innovate themselves on "Halo Of Blood", but they bring their usual strong blend of aggressive death metal and melodic sound that isn't afraid to venture into the realm of power metal without any inhibitions. It goes without saying that they have chosen only the most noble twelve tracks!" Florian Schörg, metal. de "Versatile, with interesting and surprising stylistic influences. Best album, best songs!
