Sodom\u2019s<\/strong> cult 1992 album Tapping The Vein <\/em>may have been the bands heaviest offering yet but as the band remembers, the album really offered something new, there were more punk influences in it and the track \u2018Wachturm<\/em>\u2019 wears that influence in its shoulder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Angelripper recalls how the song came together, \u201cAndy (Brings – guitarist) is a big Ramones fan, which Chris (Witchhunter \u2013 drums) and I also liked. Chris was the metal advocate in the band, whereas I was more into punk and Mot\u00f6rhead. It was the combination that made it work.\u201d Andy adds: \u201cChris wasn’t averse to punk either, he was a big fan of Die Toten Hosen for example. At that time we actually considered covering their song ‘Liebesspieler’ for Tapping<\/em> The<\/em> Vein<\/em> but in the end we composed our own punk song, ‘Wachturm<\/em>‘.\u201d Even though the German lyrics of the song sound humorous, they have a serious background. They are based on some very bad experiences Chris had with the Jehovah’s Witnesses. His girlfriend at the time joined the sect and left him because of it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new expanded editions of Sodom\u2019s<\/strong>, Tapping The Vein<\/em> feature the original album remastered, it also features a complete remixed version done by Andy Brings with some additional alternative takes of three album tracks, plus three live concerts: Tokyo 1992, D\u00fcsseldorf 1992 and Cologne 1992 (Chris Witchhunter\u00b4s last show with Sodom<\/strong>) in the super deluxe edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
