German Thrashers SODOM have just released a video for ‘Friendly Fire’. The song appears on the band’s new album “Genesis XIX”, which will be released on November 27, 2020 via SPV / Steamhammer. You find the video here. Tom Angelripper: “So, here it is… my favourite on this album. I can hardly believe or indeed describe how much I love this song. I’m pretty sure it sets the direction for our next album. And in the meantime, I’m convinced that it’s the clever sequence and combination of notes in our twelve equal system that makes music (generally) so diverse. Lord, I wish we’d known that back then… Often in a war situation, soldiers find themselves having to direct their weapons against their own comrades who are holed up close to enemy positions. These victims were accepted as part and parcel of the overall victory. Large numbers of supposed enemy planes were also shot down.” All further SODOM info you will find at www.facebook.com/sodomized
