Bassist/vocalist Thomas “Angelripper” Such commented:

“At the time it was just another album for us, but the Sodomaniacs all over the world made it a cult classic. It’s just sad that Chris Witchhunter is not here anymore to celebrate with us.

We just did what we did, not paying attention to what was happening around us. Andy [Brings] joined the band and we just hammered out these killer songs in no time. It all happened very fast. There were no distractions, just the music.

The fans mean everything to us, and this is really just for them. Working on ‘Tapping The Vein’ again brought back so many memories, both good and bad, but this is who we were 32 years ago. An amazing trip.”

Guitarist Andy Brings added:

“Bands don’t determine what becomes a cult, the fans do. It just happened, and we are very proud of it. 18-year-olds come up to me these days and tell me how much they love that album.

‘Tapping The Vein’ is the result of pure inspiration. I was young, hungry and full of energy and had ideas and that resonated perfectly with Tom and Chris, wanting to show everybody who’s really in charge of thrash metal, in an era where not many bands stayed true to their original vision.

We fought and worked very hard for this re-release, I can only hope that it was worth the wait, but I’m pretty sure it will fill every Sodomaniac’s heart with joy.”
