The Finnish metal band will be coming to Manila for the very first time to perform on November 19, 2011 at the Amoranto Theater. They also recently released their newest album Relentless Reckless Forever, which went Platinum in their home country. This is the third consecutive time that COB released a number 1 album in Finland and this year, they are bringing their music over to our shores!

Over on our celebrity columnists side, Mike Schleibaum tells a very weird but hilarious experience while on tour with black metal band Belphegore. Paolo Gregoletto on the other hand answered random questions from Filipino fans about their latest album, In Waves and other odd questions that failed to weird Paolo out (like he said, it takes a lot to weird him out).
