Nuclear Blast

Swedish high energy rockers THE HELLACOPTERS have been celebrating their 30th anniversary recently and after releasing something new - the much-lauded "Overdriver" album on January 31, 2025, which reached No. 1 in the Swedish charts for the second time in the group's career - it is time to offer their dedicated fanbase something truly nostalgic. "Cream Of The Crap! Collected Non-Album Works o Volume 3" is the long-overdue follow-up in a series of rarities collections started in 2002 combining material from a myriad of singles, EPs, and compilations. The 24 tracks featured in this set have originally been released between 1995 and 2004, and include originals like 'Disappointment Blues', 'Freeway To Hell', 'Doggone Your Bad-Luck Soul' and 'Long Gone Losers' as well as many cover versions of songs by Motörhead, Wilson Pickett, MC5, Smokey Robsinson, Alice Cooper, the Ramones, the Nomads, and Adam West - whose singer Jake Starr penned liner notes for this release - and many, many more. Meticulously compiled by Robert Eriksson, transferred from master tapes and vinyl by Henke Jonsson, and remastered for maximum audio fidelity by Magnus Lindberg, THE HELLACOPTERS proudly present a stunning collection of incredible, high-octane rock'n'roll on this over 75 minutes long CD edition.

Over the last twenty years, Finland's Children Of Bodom have incorporated many different musical styles into their celebrated sound, leading critics and fans to label them as melodic death metal, thrash metal, symphonic black metal, and neoclassical metal. Their enthralling mix of melodic hooks and instrumental acrobatics have solidified the band as one of the leading voices of music's new generation. <br/><br/>Formed as Inearthed in 1993, the group is led by superstar frontman / guitarist Alexi Laiho, who was voted "Best Metal Guitarist" by readers of Guitar World magazine. COB albums are no strangers to debut positions on the American Billboard Top 200 chart and with three consecutive albums debuting at number one on Finnish album charts, they are one of their home country's bestselling artists of all time with more than 250,000 records sold there alone. <br/><br/>COB frontman, guitarist, and mastermind Alexi Laiho commented on the new album: "We are close to putting the finishing touches on the new COB record I Worship Chaos and as much fun (but most importantly raw, literally bloody knuckled hard work) it has been making it, I'm more than happy and even more anxious to share this chaos with the rest of the world. So people, put your shades and helmets on, it will get very dark and it might hurt, in a perfect COB fashion of course!" <br/><br/>Returning to Finland's Danger Johnny Studios (located at a top secret, undisclosed location in Helsinki) to record I Worship Chaos, the album was produced by COB and Mikko Karmila, who worked with the band on their earlier albums Halo Of Blood, Hatebreeder, Follow the Reaper and Hate Crew Deathroll. The album was mixed and mastered at Finnvox Studios in Helsinki, Finland. COB is set to embark on a momentous worldwide trek in support of I Worship Chaos.
