Brief biographical information of the three bands:
Sodom is a German metal band from Gelsenkirchen, founded in 1981. They have gone through many compositional changes, leaving bassist/singer Tom Angelripper as the only stable member. Along with Kreator, Destruction and Tankard, Sodom have been listed as one of the “Big 4” of Teutonic thrash metal. While three of these bands (in addition to Tankard) created a sound that would have a big impact on death and black metal, the Sodom’s early musical style would greatly influence many black metal bands in the late 1980s and early 1990s more than others.
To date, Sodom has released fifteen studio albums, three live albums, two collection albums and six EPs. They achieved their first commercial success with their third studio album “Agent Orange” (1989), which was the first thrash metal album to enter the German charts album, where it reached number 36. Their latest releases include a full length album, “Genesis XIX” (2020), and five EP’s, with the most recent being “Bombenhagel” released last August. Sodom remain one of the highest-selling thrash metal bands of all time, having sold over eight million records.
Domination Inc. is a new, dynamic groove/thrash metal band from Athens that despite their young age already counts 10 years as a band. Having now recorded the historic SPV/Steamhammer and having done various tours, culminating in the live on Wacken Open Air, they are more ready than ever to return to Athens for a live full of energy.
Fragments Of Despair who will open the concert, were created in Paros in 2013 by the singer and guitarist Romulus Chondrogiorgakis and the guitarist Stelios “The Youth” Zoumis. Having released two singles in July 2014, “Under The Same Sky” & “Eradicate War” piqued the interest of music producer Clive Martin and gave rise to the release (on 17/01/2015) of the first EP of the band in its production. Three years later, with several live performances and several member changes, Fragments Of Despair releases “Broken Lost Mistakes,” their first album again produced by Clive Martin. On the drums now is Sevan Barsam (Memorain, Karma Violens) and on bass Jason Joachim (Lycans).
