SODOM: U.S. Headlining Shows Announced

January 13, 2010

German thrash metal veterans 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 will offer special VIP tickets, which will include a pre-show meet-and-greet with the band to start one hour before doors and an autographed poster custom-made for that show. Fans will be allowed one hour early entrance to the venue and will be able to remain in the venue after the meet-and-greet, before the general public is let inside.

Tickets go on sale today exclusively through EnterTheVault.com until February 7, at which point they will be made available through normal ticketing systems.

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, will be re-released on February 1 (Germany: January 29) via SPV/Steamhammer. The CD will come in a high-class digipack and will include a bonus disc. The extensive booklet will contain rare photos and liner notes by bassist/vocalist Thomas "Angelripper" Such. The LP will come as a double gatefold album with printed inner sleeves and three bonus live tracks.

SODOM headlined the "Chris Witchhunter Tribute Concert" on April 11, 2009 at Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen, Germany. The event honored late SODOM drummer Chris Dudek (a.k.a. Witchhunter),who died on September 8, 2008 due to vital organ failure.

The band's latest album, "The Final Sign of Evil", was released as a double vinyl package on February 1, 2008 via SPV Records. The LP features re-recordings of the material from the German thrashers' classic first EP, "In the Sign of Evil", plus no less than seven bonus tracks, all of which were originally written during the "In the Sign of Evil" era or earlier but were never officially released. As a special bonus, the album features return appearances by Witchhunter and guitarist Josef "Peppi" Dominic (a.k.a. Grave Violator),both of whom were featured on the original 1984 EP.
