As previously reported, it’s been a long wait for the fans, but now SODOM and SPV/Steamhammer are ready to present a re-release of one of the most influential and successful thrash albums of all time: Agent Orange.

The CD comes in a high class digipak with a bonus CD. The extensive booklet includes rare photos and liner notes by Tom Angelripper. The LP comes as a double gatefold album with printed inner sleeves and 3 bonus live tracks.

Release Dates: February 1st, 2010 (Germany: January 29th).

Tom Angelripper remembers: "Oh my God, it’s already been 20 years since „Agent Orange“ is first been jerked into the racks of the record shops. How time flies! I like thinking back to the glorious days, especially because it’s been this album which completely turned my life and the lives of my pals upside down. In the previous years we basically developed our own philosophy, which didn’t deal with chart-positions or sales figures. Nevertheless Agent Orange achieved position #36 of the german Media Control Charts as the first Thrash album at all. Nobody had reckoned with this. This time almost all of the record reviews were positive, and for the first time in our career we were accepted as a band and as musicians. I’d like to thank all our fans sincerely for your support. It’s plaintive, that Chris Witchhunter can’t commemorate this 20th anniversary of Agent Orange first release with us. May he find his place and his merited peace in “Rock’n’Roll-heaven”. Hiya Chris, I drink a beer on you!"
