Tom Angelripper recently announced the release of the new SODOM album, Decision Day, on August 26th. Check out a new Napalm Store ID video HERE.
Together with his two comrades-in-arms, guitarist Bernemann and drummer Markus “Makka” Freiwald, Angelripper spent four months at the studio honing the new Sodom material. The result is a hard-as-nails, diverse thrash metal offering on the subject of D-Day, the day in June 1944 when the troops of the Western Allied forces landed in Normandy to liberate mainland Europe from the scourge of Nazi Germany.
Songs such as “Belligerence”, “Decision Day” and “Strange Lost World” present the Sodom frontman once more as a historically well-versed contemporary witness and critical observer of current international events. Decision Day was produced by Cornelius ‘Corny’ Rambadt, sound engineer and drummer with Angelripper’s side project Onkel Tom.
The new release is bound to cause a stir, not least thanks to its impressive artwork courtesy of none other than Joe Petagno (pictured below). As well as having worked for Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin, Petagno is also Motörhead’s favoured graphic designer and has created legendary album covers such as Overkill, Orgasmatron and Another Perfect Day.
Angelripper: “I was surprised and proud to learn how familiar Joe is with Sodom, immediately bringing up associations of our ‘Knarrenheinz’ when we talked about the artwork. For a Motörhead fan like myself, this cover is an absolute dream come true.”
