Last known S.O.B. "album". It consist of re-recordings of older songs with another new vocalist (Etsushi) and guitarist (O. Seki). If you are wondering where the song "Ego Fix" comes from (like I was), I'm pretty sure it's from the Various Artists Compilation - Taste of the Wild West 1 (which I haven't heard though).Since this is the last S.O.B. post I thought it deserved some more band info: S.O.B. (SabotageOrganizedBarbarian) was a grindcore band from Osaka, Japan formed in 1983. They are considered as one of the pioneers of grindcore alongside Napalm Death, influencing bands such as Brutal Truth, and even Napalm Death that obviously originally influenced S.O.B.. Although they started as a fast hardcore band, their music evolved into metal influenced grindcore, and later into experimental hardcore. Up until "Vicious World" the vocalist was Yoshitomo "Tottsuan" Suzuki who committed suicide by jumping in front of a train in June 1995. After that tragedy the band was on a hiatus, but a while later B. Naoto who played bass in the earliest S.O.B. incarnation rejoins, this time as the vocalist, and S.O.B. joins the trendy fashion Tokyo punk scene (source). S.O.B. obviously returns to hardcore/grindcore with this release, but that was 5 years ago. What are they doing today? Are they still going or have they split up? I have no idea.
If you have any more info, or you know/think there are parts of this post that are untrue, please let me know.

Thanks for the S.O.B. albums, they really are fine examples of the intensity present even if the early days of grindcore. I love grindcore of all ages; grindcore is for all ages and ages.
