There’s an even stronger emphasis on one intense cinematic vibe, focused on “our favorite slasher movies driven by revenge, violence and, of course, fear”, citing such classics as David Cronenberg’s ‘Videodrome’, Roman Polanski’s ‘Repulsion’, the original ‘Friday the 13th’, Stuart Gordon’s ‘The Beyond’ and ‘Re-Animator’, ‘Motel Hell’, ‘City Of The Dead’ and so on…
The whole music was written by multi-instrumentist Jonny Petterson, who took a lot of inspiration from many ‘cult’ original soundtracks but also NECROPHAGIA. The lyrics were entirely penned by Hauber based on the aforementioned movies but also adding a fictional aspect to them too. Completing the line-up since 2022 are Matt Moliti from SENTIENT HORROR on lead guitars and, for the first time, Evan Daniele (also from SENTIENT HORROR but also DEAD AND DRIPPING) on drums.
A self-proclaimed horror move freak himself, Italian artist Solo Macello (PENTAGRAM, ZAKK SABBATH, BAND OF SPICE etc.) is for the first time responsible for the artwork, based on both Jonny and Ralf vision. The mask of the main slasher figure on the cover is inspired by a horror mask hanging in Jonny’s living room and can be, on purpose, seen as SODOM own mascot evil-twin.
