VOIVOD drummer
Michel "Away" Langevin has issued the following update on the band's current activities:
"A video for
'The Getaway' has just been completed and submitted to all national and regional cable outlets such as
MTV2,
Fuse, etc. The footage was pulled from the 2003 American tours and the 2006 recording sessions of
'Katorz'. Currently we are working on a video for
'Polaroids' with
Banger Productions (
'Metal: A Headbangers Journey') and then we will follow that up with a video for
'The X-Stream'.
"I am still hard at work on the re-issues (due out on
The End Records next year). We will start with the
Sanctuary ones (
'Rrroooaaarrr',
'Dimension Hatross' and
'Killing Technology'). Each album will be remastered and will come with a bonus
'Iron Gang' DVD. The pre-production for the follow-up to
'Katorz' will start this winter. Also, we are still trying to coordinate a tribute show for 2007.
"Be sure to check out our web store at bandmerch.com, soon to feature prints of my artwork and a commemorative
'Piggy' pin.
Troubleman Unlimited are still working on the layout of my art book. I should have a release date very soon."
The band released the critically-acclaimed
"Katorz" this summer on
The End Records. The album was recently released as a limited edition vinyl pressing available exclusively through
The End Records' mail-order. The beautiful gatefold 180gm vinyl comes in color format and also includes special artwork and packaging designed by
Langevin. The album was done with full cooperation from the band. The release is limited to 1,000 copies: 400 clear vinyl, 400 red vinyl and 200 black vinyl.
