'Sons of Anarchy' Release Promo Pics of Season 2

FX has just released new promo stills from its fabulous motorcycle-gang drama Sons of Anarchy, and we've got them first! The men (and women) of Samcro are back and looking more badass than ever. Click one of the thumbnails below to get your first look at Jax (Charlie Hunnam), Clay (Ron Perlman), Gemma (Katey Sagal), Tara (Maggie Siff), Opie (Ryan Hurst) and all the rest in season two.

From the line-up, two of them are new to the show. AJ Weston, played by Henry Rollins, is a lieutenant of a white separatist organization The League of American Nationalists (LOAN) which will give Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club, Redwood Original (SAMCRO) a lot of headache. Ethan Zobelle (Adam Arkin) meanwhile, is a neo-Nazi and the owner of LOAN. He will open a cigar shop on Main Street to ingratiate himself with the community and force SAMCRO out.

Second season of the macho series kicks off September 8. This season Jax and the club deal with the fallout from Donna's death, bringing internal tensions to an all-time high while a new enemy takes root in Charming. E! Online, which acquires the stills first hand, said that the season premiere will be "deeply disturbing" toward the end that it "would probably turn any innocent bystander off the show forever and may even drive away a few fans."
