SODOM Putting Finishing Touches On 'Lords Of Depravity - Part II' DVD
April 24, 2010Veteran German thrashers SODOM are putting the finishing touches on their long-awaited new DVD, "Lords Of Depravity - Part II", tentatively due this summer.
Commented bassist/vocalist Thomas "Angelripper" Such: "The time has come. After we [sifted through the] vast stuff we've collected over the last 15 years we are currently editing the DVD which will [hopefully] be finished [sometime in] the next month. The whole creation will offer you over five hours only of SODOM's finest. You had to wait for this DVD long enough but, guys, your patience will be [rewarded]. [According] to our producer, Ronald Matthes, it [will] be the most extensive music project he has ever [been involved with] and [produced]. At the moment I'm not [in a position] to talk about [a provisional] release date but the DVD will be available in stores this summer and [in time for] the festival season, for sure."
SODOM issued the "Lords of Depravity - Part I" DVD in the U.S. on February 21, 2006 via SPV. The first of two double-DVD sets contained the SODOM history from 1982 to 1995 plus live footage from concerts in Sofia and at the With Full Force, Wacken Open Air and Rock Hard festivals.
SODOM will play two U.S. headline shows in May:
May 26 - House of Blues - West Hollywood , CA
May 28 - Gramercy Theatre - New York, NY
SODOM has been confirmed for this year's Maryland Deathfest, set to take place May 28-30, 2010 at Sonar in Baltimore.
"Agent Orange", the classic 1989 album from SODOM, was re-released on February 1 (Germany: January 29) via SPV/Steamhammer. The CD comes in a high-class digipack and will include a bonus disc. The extensive booklet contains rare photos and liner notes by bassist/vocalist Thomas "Angelripper" Such.

As a special bonus, the album featured return appearances by drummer Chris Dudek (a.k.a. Witchhunter) and guitarist Josef "Peppi" Dominic (a.k.a. Grave Violator),both of whom were featured on the original 1984 EP.
