JANUARY 1st, 2012:

HAPPY 2012!

There's a new S.O.D. show available for downloading and I just added an interview with Dan Lilker.

Dan Lilker interview about Crab Society North
In December F.O.A.D. Records released the complete Crab Society Demo's from 1985 on vinyl. There's even a limited box-set available, which includes a 1985 S.O.D. rehearsal on 10" yellow vinyl. For more info on this see below or click here. F.O.A.D. records interviewed Dan Lilker, since he was involved in both the 'Crab Society' and the 'Crab Society North' projects. You can read the interview here.

S.O.D. live in 1997 (download)
Fifteen years ago , S.O.D. reunited for the first time since 1985 for a short tour. Yes, they did 3 shows in 1992, 1994 and 1996 as well, but never a whole tour. S.O.D. were asked to perform at the 'With Full Force' festival in Germany in 1997 (footage of this show can be found at the 'Speak English Or Live' DVD) and this festival was followed up by a short U.S. tour. One of these shows was at 'The Chance' in Poughkeepsie on August the 1st. I happen to have a soundboard recording of this show, so I decided that I would use this show for my first download of 2012, with some artwork that I created for it! I hope you enjoy listening to this 1997 S.O.D. show! You can download this recording here..

Have a great New Year!

Crab Society demo's released on vinyl!

F.O.A.D. Records, Italian Thrash-HC label headed by Marco FOAD and Giulio the Bastard has just released the S.O.D. "Crab society demos 1985" Picture-disc LP and collectors' boxset with an extra 10"!!

After 2 years in the making, F.O.A.D. Records has just released the legendary S.O.D. “Crab Society Demos 1985″ (FOAD 025). A complete reissue of the band’s seminal demotapes (remastered from the best sources existing), available for the first time ever on vinyl as a deluxe Picture LP and limited edition die-hard boxset. Featuring the terrific 63-track ‘Crab Society North’ tape with embryonic versions of S.O.D. and M.O.D. anthems like ‘Jim Gordon’, ‘Vitality’, ‘Diamonds and Rust’, ‘Bubble Butt’, and a never before heard 52-track, pre-S.O.D. session featuring Dan Lilker (S.O.D., Anthrax, Nuclear Assault, Brutal Truth) and Craig Setari (NYC Mayhem, Straight Ahead, Sick Of It All, Agnostic Front).

Two versions
I ordered both versions 2 weeks ago and got them just before X-mas.
They're awesome! Not because of the music, but because of their historical value they're real collectors items! Both versions contain the same picture-disc in a gatefold sleeve, but the sleeve of the limited version is open on the left side and contains also an S.O.D. rehearsal on yellow vinyl. The limited box contains a backpatch, which is not in the regular version. Both versions come with a large poster. I've added more info and pictures here. Here's what you'll get if you order one of these items:

The REGULAR EDITION contains:
A Picture Vinyl LP Housed in High Glossy Gatefold Cover and a two sided full color poster with ultrarare 80's zine excerpts and artwork by Andrei Bouzikov (Municipal Waste, Cannabis Corpse, Cripple Bastards amongst others).

The DIE-HARD COLLECTORS’ EDITION contains:
Ultra limited die hard boxset (only 150 copies) including: S.O.D. "Crab Society demos" Picture LP in gatefold sleeve with 2 sided poster, extra 10" in highlighter yellow vinyl and a full-color backpatch in the old school Thrasher way! All this housed in a superthick collectors' boxset with full coloured print on both sides. The extra 10" includes the remastering of a rare 1985 rehearsal with all the classic hits you want to hear by such a release, and a pre-S.O.D. recording of a Discharge cover!

You can order these releases here:

Dirty Rock Nation - New Billy Milano interview‏

Press Release - Dirty Rock Nation

Dirty Rock Nation's AJ Mancabelli sits down with controversial frontman Billy Milano at the Music Lab in Austin Texas. Billy Milano is known by many underground metal fans for fronting the revolting New York based band M.O.D. (Method of Destruction), and the supergroup S.O.D. (Stormtroopers of Death). These two bands received much notoriety in the underground thrash scene of the eighties and early nineties with some popular appeal stemming from two of the members playing full time in Anthrax. S.O.D. also gained some notoriety when MTV's Head Banger's Ball used a S.O.D song as its theme music.

In this in-depth 3-part video interview, Billy reflects on 25 plus years of heavy metal and hard living. He comments on his "offensive characters" he has played over the years and his battle with weight and diabetes. Billy talks about his run-in with Jack Black, sharing the stage with Lamb of God, animal rights, and his current healthy lifestyle and state of mind.

"You may not know me, but I fucked your mom in the 80's." Ladies and gentlemen…we give you…Billy Milano.

This rare look at one of metal's most notorious personalities can be viewed at dirtyrocknation.com.

JUNE 9th, 2011:

Added: shirts, vinyl, rare releases and more...

The M.O.D. 'special items' page has been redone and I've added some new S.O.D. items

M.O.D. items
I promised a while ago to add some M.O.D. items that hadn't been listed at this website yet. It has finally been done! Special thanks to Mark Brand who send me pictures of all M.O.D. albums that were released on vinyl! I also added a cd-promo of M.O.D.'s 'Intruder' (1992) and an Australian 2004 release of 'Gross Misconduct/Surfin' M.O.D.'. You can find these cd's here.

S.O.D. stuff
The S.O.D. 'special items' pages have been expanded even more! You can also find pictures of shirts, guitarpicks and Sgt. D dolls now. But... this page isn't finished yet. I'm still looking for more (pics of) S.O.D. shirts. If you own a shirt that isn't one this website yet, feel free to contact me and send me your pics. I'd like this site to be as complete as possible and I'll credit you if you send me info and/or photo's. Thanks in advance!

For a list of all 'special items', just click here...

FEBRUARY 27th, 2011:

Update: 2 more special items added

I've just got another 2 S.O.D. releases and put them on my site

The first item I've just added is the blue vinyl version of 'Pussywhipped'. I've been looking for that one for a long time and I finally managed to get this album! It's exactly the same as the black vinyl bootleg, only this one is blue. Details can be found here.

The other item I've added is a Polish cassette of 'Speak English Or Die'. For info and scans click here.

My next update will contain some M.O.D. items!

JANUARY 23rd, 2011:

S.O.D.: Special items redone

The 'special items' section of the site has totally changed. Check it out!

I decided it was time to redo the 'special items' page, because over the years it had become a huge collection of all kinds of different items; tapes, picture discs, colored vinyl, promo-cd's and other releases all on one page. That had to change!

Categories
So, from today it's easier to find what you are looking for. I've divided the S.O.D. collectors items into 4 categories:
- Vinyl
- CD's
- Cassettes
- Live recordings

The lay-out is new and I've added lots of new pics & scans, a few new items, and some extra info. Especially on the pages with vinyl and cassettes you will find some new stuff. I hope that dividing the items into categories will make it easier to find the info that you need. In the next weeks I'll add even more 'special items'. If you have something special that should be on this page, please contact me and I will let you know what I need.

In the meantime, take a look!

JANUARY 14th, 2011:

Happy 2011!

Ten years ago, in January 2001, I started a (small) fansite for S.O.D. and after all these years I'm still here with news, info, pictures and music. This new year I'll start adding some info about releases and a few 'new' shows...

S.O.D. audio cassettes
Until now I didn't have the audio cassette versions of S.O.D.'s 'Speak English Or Die' and 'Bigger Than The Devil' listed on my site yet. I have got copies of these tapes, but I'm still looking for 'Live At Budokan'. Does anyone know if this album is available on cassette? If so, please contact me and/or send me some info. I've just added all info and scans of these 2 cassettes here.

More downloads
This year I also want to upload some more audio bootleg-recordings to my site. I've already started by uploading a vintage M.O.D. show from 1988 and 2 S.O.D. shows that have been on my site a long while ago. Click here.

I'll try to upload this website at least once a month with new music or other interesting info about S.O.D., M.O.D. or info about bandmembers.

NOVEMBER 7th, 2010:

More special items

Last week I received 2 more special editions of official S.O.D. releases...

Green vinyl:
Speak English Or Die (2008)
A few weeks ago I discovered this green vinyl version of 'Speak English Or Die'. I am told that they were exclusive to Hot Topic (an American retail chain specializing in music and punk/rock culture-related clothing and accessories, as well as licensed music on CD's) initially. There were only 1000 copies made of the green vinyl. Now I've got one of them. More info here...

Russian Edition:
Bigger Than The Devil (27 tracks)
I already knew that this Russian edition of 'Bigger Than The Devil' from 2002 contained the extra tracks 'Seasoning The Obese' and 'Raise Your Sword'. Some info about this release was already even available on my website. But now I've got my own copy, so I added new scans and updated the info. Details can be found here...

If anyone has a special release that isn't on this website yet, feel free to contact me and/or send me some scans. I'd be happy to upload your pics!

OCTOBER 24th, 2010:

Special items

Here are a few (new) items that weren't on this site yet...

Promo tape:
Bigger Than The Devil + Kill The Assholes
A couple of months ago another fan contacted me and sent me pics of an item he'd found; a 2 track promo cassette from 1999. In the meantime I've managed to get a copy of this tape myself and mine is in great condition. You'll find new scans and updated info here.

Yellow vinyl:
Bigger Than The Devil

That same fan also has a yellow vinyl version of 'Bigger Than The Devil'. He sent me some pics of this item, you can find info about this release here.

Red vinyl:
Speak English Or Die

In 2004 Megaforce Records released 'Speak English Or Die' on red vinyl. I hadn't added that version on this website yet, but recently I finally got this red album myself. Sadly the sleeve is badly damaged because of the way it was shipped to me, so I'm still looking for a new (and better) one. In the meantime you can find all info here.

Sampler:
Welcome To The Subterrranean Sect

I've also added a new cd to the page with compilations. It's a promo called 'Welcome To The Subterranean Sect' and contains S.O.D.'s 'Aren't You Hungry?' Click here for more info.

JULY 20th, 2010:

A few updates...

Just a few updates

Tribute
I've just added 2 livetracks to the S.O.D. tribute page, both by S.O.B.'D. (a Dutch S.O.D. coverband). Listen to the tracks here. Thanks to 'Dan' for sending them to me.

Promo cassette
James Burns has send me some info and pics from an S.O.D. 2 track promo cassette that was released in 1999. I had never seen it before. If you want to check it out, click here. Thanks James!

Vinyl
I have every S.O.D. record that has been released on vinyl, as well as 3 bootlegs. I am planning to upload pics and info of all these S.O.D. releases on a special vinyl-page in the near future.

Mastery
Billy Milano, who's currently in Mastery, told me that the basic tracks for the new Mastery record are done. The vocals will be recorded in 2 weeks. I've heard 2 songs already and they sound awesome! The record will be released in 2011! More info soon.

FEBRUARY 25th, 2010:

More updates...

Info about some official releases has been added, I've reconstructed the S.O.D. DVD page and the complete lists of bootlegs are easier to be found...

Albums
Recently I got hold of a Megaforce promo CD from 1995 (see picture), which contains several tracks from Anthrax, S.O.D. and M.O.D.! There are 20 tracks on this promo; 4 of them are S.O.D. songs and 8 of them are from different M.O.D. albums. I've just added this CD at the S.O.D.- and M.O.D. discography pages. For more information about this release, just click here or here.

Official DVD's
There have been a couple of S.O.D. releases over the last few years, now I've finally updated my website with info and tracklists of the 'Live At The Fenix' and 'Kill Yourself - The Movie' (re-release) DVD's. For details, click here.

Bootlegs
All S.O.D.- and M.O.D. shows on vinyl, videotape, DVD and CD that I have collected over the years are now easier to be found. I try to update this list of shows as frequent as possible. I'm expecting a couple of new items very soon, so keep checking to see what's new. Everything is listed at the 'special items' page.
For S.O.D. click here, for M.O.D. click here. More updates soon!

FEBRUARY 14th, 2010:

Updates on website

More bootlegs have been added at the special items page and I've created a new complete list with S.O.D. bootlegs on CD, videotape and DVD.

There were a couple of things that needed to be updated. Mainly at the 'special items' pages. I have added 2 more S.O.D. bootlegs: 'Galaxy, St. Louis, MO, November 19, 1999' and 'Intersection, Grand Rapids, MI, March 20, 2000'. If you click here, you'll find all the details.

Because I've collected a lot of shows on DVD as well that weren't listed here yet, I have added a new page with a complete list of my S.O.D. liveshows on CD, videotape and DVD! If you have something that is not on my list yet, feel free to contact me and maybe we could work out a trade! The list can be found here.
Soon I'll also add a new list of my M.O.D. items on CD, video and DVD...

Furthermore, I will very soon update the page of officially released S.O.D. DVD's with the re-release of 'Kill Yourself  - The Movie' which has been released by Nuclear Blast last year. In a couple of days that page will be up to date again as well.
