Sodom Drummer Passes Away

2008-09-08 by SoulReaper | 15 Comments
According to a posting on SODOM's official web site, the group's original drummer, Chris Dudek (a.k.a. Witchhunter), passed away yesterday (Sunday, September 7). No further details are currently available.

Dudek made a special guest appearance on SODOM's latest album, "The Final Sign of Evil", which was released as a double vinyl package on February 1, 2008 via SPV Records. The LP features re-recordings of the material from the German thrashers' classic first EP, "In the Sign of Evil", plus no less than seven bonus tracks, all of which were originally written during the "In the Sign of Evil" era or earlier but were never officially released. In addition to Dudek, guitarist Josef "Peppi" Dominic (a.k.a. Grave Violator) — who was featured on the original 1984 EP — appeared on the new recording.

OH NO!! Thats really very sad to hear. We got to hear him one last time on "The Final Sign of Evil"

He just disappeared for many years before Tom traced him down and got him for the latest re-union album. The guy was brilliant back in the day. RIP.

Here's the message that the admin of Sodometal recieved.

Dear Friends,

i want to inform you that Chris Witchhunter died last Night. A few hours ago we received a message from Witchhunters Mom that Chris is dead. We are shocked and stunned this time but we want to tell all Sodom Fans that one of the founding Members of Sodom gone forever.

At first we thought that this is not true but by the tears of Chris Mom… it´s true!

Please spread the message!


Best Wishes


Martin Sosna
