Children of Bodom have announced a North American headlining tour in celebration of the band's 15th Anniversary.

The trek will kick off on Jan. 30 in Rochester, N.Y. and run through Mar 4, hitting 26 cities over the course of the five week jaunt. Support on the anniversary tour will come from Swiss folk-metal band Eluveitie, Boston extreme metallers Revocation and Canada's Threat Signal.

Children of Bodom continues to tour the globe in support of its latest album, 2011's 'Relentless Reckless Forever,' which landed at #41 on the Billboard Top 200 in its first week of release. 15 years into its career, COB continues to grow its ever-expanding fan base via supercharged live shows that have also made fans of some of hard rock's biggest names. Longtime metal vocalist and reality TV star Sebastian Bach jumped on stage and expressed his love for the band at a COB show in Los Angeles this past summer (see video below) while Laiho was invited to join Deftones on stage in COB's hometown of Helsinki for a joint performance of the band's 'Root.'
