A brutal extended EP consisting of four never released S.O.D. songs, plus a live concert are included. One of the most crucial bands in the musical chain linking hardcore, punk and metal (first coined crossover in the mid 80's), the Stormtroopers of Death - known as S.O.D. were actually intended to be a one-off side project, done as a lark during a gap in Anthrax's recording and touring schedule in 1985. The irony is the band have outlasted many of the genre's most prestigious bands and hailed as innovators that haveinfluenced the evolution of heavy music as we now know it.
