Stormtroopers of Death, more commonly known as '''S.O.D.''', formed in New York in 1985 . They are commonly credited as being among the first bands to fuse Hardcore Punk with Thrash Metal into a new sound dubbed Crossover Thrash . They have also been the target of controversy due to their politically-incorrect lyrics, in particular a track named " Speak English Or Die ". The British band Concrete Sox responded to the aforementioned song with a parody entitled "Speak Siberian or Die." Not all found them offensive, however; in 2000, the Japanese band Yellow Machinegun recorded their own version of "Speak English or Die" on a tribute album titled "Speak Japanese or Die". Finally, S.O.D. member Dan Lilker has stated: "The lyrics were never intended to be serious, just to piss people off." |
