Women Of Sodom

Women Of Sodom

Women Of Sodom has been played on NTS shows including Axcess Amnesia w/ Jenny Sayaka Nono, with Boots first played on 17 April 2020.

Women of Sodom was an industrial rock band from Boston, MA, United States, formed in 1994 and active until 1998.

The core of the group consists of Ilsa von Bulow, lead vocalist, and Xavier Dietrich II, purveyor of eclectic industrial dance music. A typical stage show is a wild festival of pulsing music, slave abuse and humiliation, and exotic performances. Member Anneka provides backing vocals ranging from middle eastern chants to bluesy wails. Jane Bondage is the band's guitar playing nun, and also Ilsa's real-life teenage 'sister'. Bunny Peculiar interacts with Ilsa and the slaves throughout the show, keeping adrenaline levels climbing steadily. Lex is the slave cum cage drummer. He is also laden with drum pads during the performance and the Women rhythmically abuse their "human drum." Sahar, a belly-dancing goddess, adds another layer. Ilsa and Anneka's vocals switch effortlessly between German, Hebrew, Italian, and Latin, and rising and falling within Xavier's decadent sonic architectures.

Founded as a platform for Ilsa's radical philosophies and alternative feminism, the Women of Sodom are much more than a band. Their stage approach dramatizes the music's vignettes of domination over males. The music and the stage activities transport the audience to a world in which sex with the crucified Jesus is not only permitted but encouraged.

Women of Sodom have played to large crowds across the US. They played in New Orleans during Mardi Gras last year and frequently play in New York City and Boston. Xavier and Ilsa are currently at work on their next album at their Boston studio, Fort Dietrich.
