The Finnish melodeath metallers have announced that they will use the services of Antti Wirman for upcoming shows.

The addition comes straight after the announcement that longtime guitarist Roope Latvala stood down from his duties. Wirman is the brother of keyboard player Janne Wirman and also plays guitar in his solo band, Warmen.

Those that listened to the last Warmen album will already be familiar with Wirman’s skill, and will serve as a good replacement to fill the big boots Latvala left behind.

Bodom will debut officially with the new guitarist at Sweden Rock festival on Thursday.
