SODOM sa nepohodli s bubeníkom, Bobby Schottkowski tak už viac nie je súčasťou ich zostavy. Jeho náhrada by mala byť známa čoskoro.

"After personal and private problems between Tom [bassist/vocalist Thomas "Angelripper" Such] and Bobby [Schottkowski; drums], it was decided, by mutual agreement, to end the cooperation between SODOM and the drummer Bobby Schottkowski. Tom and Bernemann [guitar] will announce as soon as possible a replacement drummer. The shows from January onwards will be performed as planned and the upcoming tour in February will take place in any case. Until then we will have incorporated the new drummer. We thank you for your understanding and your loyal support."
