Gelsenkirchen, Germany-based thrash metal group Onkel Tom, the solo project of Sodom frontman Thomas ‘Angelripper’ Such, have released an official lyric video for the track ‘Flasche zu Flasche’, which can be viewed below.
The band commented: “Check out another appetizer from the upcoming Onkel Tom release Bier Ernst. This track is taken from the Bier CD. The song ‘Flasche zu Flasche’ draws influences from Russian folklore and offers a catchy chorus to sing along to. Special thanks go to Ferdy Doernberg for playing mandolin and accordion. The lyrics dignify the significance of a bottle throughout every human’s life. Cheers ‘n’ beers and lots of fun listening to the ‘ode to the bottle’!”
Onkel Tom issue seventh full-length studio album Bier Ernst on September 28th, 2018 through Steamhammer / SPV.
As well as rock versions of popular drinking and party ditties, Onkel Tom have recorded a dozen original compositions. Bier Ernst is spread across 21 tracks on two CDs, titled – in accordance with their lyrical content – Bier and Ernst, respectively.
Thomas ‘Angelripper’ Such commented: “The title track of our recent EP and eight additional numbers on the Ernst CD present the band from a slightly different perspective. They’re songs full of passion for music, but, of course, also full of anger about people’s indifference that’s bound to destroy the world. Naturally, it will also feature the new hit single, which will be supported by a very elaborate video clip. Get ready to be surprised! But don’t worry: the 12 songs on the Bier CD celebrate life, having a good time and sophisticated drinking. Our fans can rest assured that we’re as thirsty as ever and that we will quench that thirst with them at our shows.”
