PRESS RELEASE:
Canadian thrashing newcomers WODOS stream their brilliant demo in its entirety
Who are WODOS? This time it’s not the upside down SODOM, but the joke surely is on these Francophones. They are a new force in Canadian scene, a force to reckon with!
The band was created in February 2024 by Justin Caron on drums and Benji Thériault on vocals. They had a few lineup changes before meeting Mikee Blanchet who became the guitarist and Charles Fortin who is now the bassist. Their influences are mainly oldschool Thrash bands from the mid-80s to the mid-90s like Slayer, Demolition Hammer, Sadus and Dark Angel.
They are very attached to the DIY principle to keep the authentic side of metal. The band recorded their demo themselves in a live session (February 23rd 2025) and made cassettes and CDrs. Since the beginning of the band, the reviews have been very positive. People like their oldschool sound, the aggressiveness and the authentic side! They played the first show with local bands on February 7th 2025 and the shows haven´t stopped ever since!
After almost 8 months of concerts all over Quebec and Ontario, they are starting to receive offers to play with bigger bands like Chris Holmes (ex-WASP) and the legendary Quebec band Soothsayer! In the near future, WODOS plan on recording the first album and continue to expand the shows and bring back the oldschool and underground side of metal! Looking forward to making you headbang and never forget: Thrash til´ death!
