P.O.D. to rock Bangkok

Metalheads will have something to cheer about when P.O.D. performs in Bangkok on Oct 6.

P.O.D. (Payable on Death) is an American nu-metal band consisting of vocalist Sonny Sandoval, drummer Wuv Bernardo, guitarist Marcos Curiel, and bassist Traa Daniels. They have released six major label studio albums and two independent albums and have sold more than 12 million records around the world.

The band has also received three Grammy nominations, contributed to motion-picture soundtracks and toured internationally.

With their third studio album, The Fundamental Elements Of Southtown, they achieved their initial mainstream success; the album was certified Platinum by the RIAA in 2000.

Their following studio album, Satellite, released in 2001, continued the band’s success with the singles, Alive and Youth Of The Nation. In 2003, P.O.D. released their fifth studio album, Payable On Death, which saw the group shift from their wellknown rapcore sound to a darker metal sound.

P.O.D.’s sixth studio album Testify was released in 2006 and the next album on April 8, 2008 entitled When Angels & Serpents Dance.

Last year, Murdered Love was released and debuted on the Billboard 200 at No.17 with sales of more than 16,000 in its first week in the US.

The P.O.D. concert in Bangkok will take place on Oct 6 at 7.30pm at Hollywood Awards on Ratchada Soi 8.
