Formed in 1993, Children Of Bodom today releases its 10th album, and it's safe to say that the band has returned to its roots to deliver a veritable hammer blow. A deluge of notes and aggression, direct and catchy tracks, a subtle blend of novelty and typical elements. From the first notes, one immediately recognizes the style and the ingenious inspiration of the Finns, mixing guitars and keyboards. "Hexed" also proves to be a well-structured, accessible, and melodic album with killer mid-tempos. With "Hexed," Children Of Bodom confirms its excellent artistic form.
