Το 2021 ξεκινάει με πολύ δυσάρεστα νέα καθώς ο πρώην κιθαρίστας των CHILDREN OF BODOM και νυν BODOM AFTER MIDNIGHT, Alexi Laiho απεβίωσε.
Ακολουθεί η επίσημη ανακοίνωση των BODOM AFTER MIDNIGHT :

«It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we have to announce the passing of Alexi Laiho. We are absolutely devastated and heartbroken for the sudden loss of our dear friend and band member. Our journey together as a band had only just begun so there’s no words to describe the shock and the bottomless grief that all of us feel. May your soul rest in peace, you will be eternally missed. We love you brother. Our deepest condolences go to his family. No further announcements nor interviews will be given at this time. We kindly ask to respect our need to process and go through this terrible situation in privacy. Thank you for your understanding and support.
