[edit] Away talks about the meaning of Voivod

There is a good interview/article at Indie InTune. In it Michel Langevin discusses the origins of the Voivod name and some of his artistic concepts. Could be integrated into the main article. Agentrickard 20:13, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] James Hetfield In Voivod?

Reccently on the thrash can on kerrange radio, "loz" was talking about how James Hetfield has joined voivod (took piggys place? as he has caner??) and is recording their lastest album with them. Is this true? if so I beleive this articles needs to mention it.

[edit] Biography

Details about band member's deaths should be cited or quickly removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MADDOX456 (talkcontribs) 01:28, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Discography

Quick question: in creating Category:Voivod albums, I've noted that Voivod is described as album #12, but the very next one in the list, Katorz, is described as album #14 (which, with that title, it would more or less have to be). There are also only 13 albums listed in the discography; Katorz is the 13th. So I'm compelled to ask: are we missing an album somewhere in the discography list? Bearcat 08:52, 27 August 2006 (UTC)


VoiVod seem to count their official publications, including the DVD D-V-O-D-1, not only their studio albums. madmactheriddler 10:16, 20 June 2007
