SODOM bassist/vocalist and sole remaining original member Thomas “Angelripper” Such has parted ways with guitarist Bernd “Bernemann” Kost and drummer Markus “Makka” Freiwald.
Such stated: After much thought and reflection, I have decided on this difficult step to pave the way for new challenges.
SODOM have always lived off the commitment and passion of everybody involved. Makka was part of the band for almost eight years, Bernemann even for more than twenty. To obviate a possible routine setting in which would make it impossible to continue our creative work optimally, I would like to start all over again with fresh and hungry musicians. At the same time, I would like to say thank you to Bernemann and Makka for many successful years in which we performed fantastic shows and released a number of real metal manifestos. Irrespective of this lineup change, all scheduled SODOM shows will take place from April 2018 as announced. Tom is set to introduce his new comrades-in-arms at the Full Metal Mountain festival. Whether SODOM will continue to operate as a trio or perhaps become a quartet in future remains unclear. Tom says: “I haven’t really made up my mind in this respect; I’m open to all options. I will now install the band’s new foundation pillars and look around for new musicians. One thing is already clear: SODOM will become even stronger!
