Voice Of Destruction (V.O.D)
10th Anniversary Re-release of “Bloedrivier”
AVAILABLE NOW!

After a decade, legendary South African band V.O.D’s Bloedrivier album is finally given a proper local release.

In a pioneering move (after signing to a German label) the godfathers of South African Metal temporarily relocated to the United Kingdom in 1995 to expand their horizons, and fan base (which has been creating quite a buzz via underground press, radio and inter-continental correspondence). Furthermore this move was made to ensure the capturing of the band’s essence and sound in an environment not ignorant of its very particular requirements. The album release was followed by a full European tour in 1996.
Recorded 10 years ago at Academy Studios in Yorkshire, England, Bloedrivier saw wide European distribution but very few copies reached South African shores. Now, after much public demand, Bloedrivier is re-released locally in its 10th anniversary year by ENT Entertainment (cdent008), with a variety of bonus features.

“It’s great to see there’s still a demand for our music. This release is very exciting since hardly anyone got to hear the album in S.A. the first time around. Many KOBUS! fans have been asking for this as well, so I think it just makes sense. A reunion tour is definitely on the table.”
– Francois Breytenbach Blom

“Our trip to Europe, the Bloedrivier recording and Autumn Wilderness Tour was a groundbreaking achievement which did not receive the coverage and hype back home as it should have. It is easy to praise something you played a role in creating, but even today this album still kicks serious ass!”
– Paul André Blom

This release, sub-titled The V.O.D Archives Volume 1 includes new artwork, and enhanced features: two never before seen videos, all the demos recorded for the album and a web link. The sleeve also features a foreword by Marq Vas.

The album will be in all good music stores (Look & Listen, CD Wherehouse and specialist stores like Subterania), just in time to set fire to your mistletoe – if they don’t stock it, demand it!

The V.O.D Archives Volume 2 is scheduled for release in 2007.
