Voice of Destruction (SA)

Voice of Destruction (VOD) are a South African Metal band. Their first album, "Bloedrivier" was released in 1996 on Morbid Records of Germany.

This was when they were based in the Londons east end and frequented the Ruskin Arms made famous by Iron Maiden amongst other bands.
 
The line up for VOD that i knew was as follows;
 
Greg McEwan - Guitars
Diccon Harper - Bass
Paul Blom - Drums
Francois Blom - Vocals
 
Will they ever come back? I doubt it. It's a pity, they were raw, honest musicians and good fun to have a drink with too!
