Mocked because they thought it was easy? Elitist trash. I remember buying Gwar's, "Scumdogs of the Universe" on CD at Camelot Records, and the guy who rung it up, laughed, and said to his co-worker, "Gwar on CD, what a concept". I'll never forget that douchebag.
This in my opinion is Scott Ian's greatest riffs ever!!! S.O.D.'s Speak English Or Die album is one of the greatest albums ever. I was a little kid barely 10 years old when I used to watch Headbanger's Ball back in the late 80's and I loved the theme music of the show, but at that time I had no idea what band did the music. It was the early 90's when I found out that S.O D. was the band. I was at Camelot Music store talking to the Heavy Metal guy that happened to be the general manager of the store, and I mentioned to him that I would love to have the music from the late 80's Headbanger's Ball show when Adam Curry was the host. The next time he saw me, he gave me the CD S.O.D Speak English Or Die and told me to trust him and buy this CD because I won't regret it. When I heard March Of The S.O.D. I could not stop yelling finally!! I listened to that album every day for months. Then I saw that they had a live album Live At Budokan and bought that also. I still listen to them both all these years later very often.
@@hinjurock70 Seems like just yesterday, I got socks older than that! ("newer" than the original, ok... they release one every 20yrs, so that's the "New" one, lol)
Somehow.... Someway, even if you hate the guy.. Get Billy Milano and do it up full tilt! Thanks for posting everything Charlie, very much appreciated 👍
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS Im referencing all the other SOD material they have done over the past 2 months. It would be absolutely amazing to have the original lineup throw down one last time 😎👍👍
@@ThunderAppeal Totally agree, I thought they'd keep the headbanger's half-hour and add the headbanger's ball, but those jerkoffs stopped the daily half-hour after a bit.
I did the Milano Mosh 28 years ago, during soundcheck, It's at 4 min in this vid: Funny Short! 90's THRASH you Never Heard! Kids 15-16 InstruMENTAL Metal Warm Up & Bonus Outtakes!
I just really miss the old camouflage amps and the massive CRUNCH he used to have in his sound 🤘 I spent the better part of the 80s trying to figure out his and Hetfields tone on MOP 😂😂
1:04 thats my fav part. Signature 80s Charlie right there, hitting all 8th note kicks on a thrash beat. Thats how you know its the drummer from Anthrax \m/
This opening riff is legendary. It has changed the lives of so many METAL musicians out there including my own. Iconic, and you know it when you hear it instantly. Scott Ian you are a innovator, and a great rhythm guitarist. Thank you for all the years, and especially for starting things off with this one- "THE RIFF". 🤘🤘
Dan Lilker is a legend! Anthrax, S.O.D, Brutal Truth, Nuclear Assault and Lord Goat. I’m sure I missed a few! This riff is in the top 10 vest metal riffs of all time!
There's Scott's sick Jackson V! Me and the Diabetic Drummer did a collab of this called March of the Chromatic Death, on my 1960 BASS-VI played like a down tuned guitar, metal-bro! With Clips from the HeadBanger's Ball intros!
I was the guy with the Jean jacket vest with patches on it over my leather jacket and i had the huge “ speak English or die “ patch on the back .. sewn on by a little old Asian lady that didn’t speak English lololol. I paid her double.
I remember Headbangers Ball on MTV...... when they actually played Music videos, and intro was S.O.D and I looked EVERYWHERE for it. Finally got a copy in 88-89 and My music changed from Punk to Thrash. Best times.
I was also ten years old listening to this in 85-86 I'm 45 and still listening also can't forget MOD thanks to my older brother can't thank him enough for all the metal he shared with me
It's so cool that your doing this. I hope Anthrax will tour again as soon as your able, and please come to Vegas. You guys jamming at the gate of area 51 would be epic!!!
Please bring back S.O.D and continue those quarantine video for ever !! Charlie. ... I always drink my coffee when I get up , but this tops the caféine a notch.

Ahhhh...flash backs to my Army Ranger Days....We would listen to this before we'd jump from Blackhawks from 800 feet in the sky....My whole squad was into metal!
You can't hear this and not headbang, it's just not possible.
Fr
Bravo, gentlemen. *BRAVO!* 🤘🔥🔥🔥
literally , it was the intro music to headbanger's ball for years
The one dislike is from Billy Milano.
I see What you did there.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Suddenly I’m a teenager again. The King’s X shirt is just icing on the cake. Thank you gentlemen!
damn straight I'm 45 and still bang to this song,bring back the Milan o m osh 4 one more tour please!!!!!!!
Heck yeah! Saw Kings X Shirt!
My first ever gig was Kings X supporting Anthrax so this brings it full circle!
That shirt is so tiny, it had to have been washed thousands of times by now. It's probably a 30 year old t-shirt. I'd love one of those 😢
Early 90s, as a beginner guitar player the clerks at the local music shop mocked me for buying the SOD tab book.
I bought it anyways. Because, Metal!
Bro,I bet they can't even barely play smoke on the water lol
You my friend are metal only for share your story
You should have bought a drumstick too and poked them right in the eye.
When I first started playing guitar I couldn't figure it out, it wasn't until a more advanced player told be about dropped D tuning 😁

Charlie wrote a lot of the music for S.O.D. (and Anthrax as well), but I think Scott wrote this one.
The good ol'days of searching the record bin
There's a new LP, Bigger than the Devil, and 30th anniversary Enhanced Speak English with TONS of tracks on it!
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS
New? Bigger Than The Devil came out 21 years ago, dude - lol
@@hinjurock70 Seems like just yesterday, I got socks older than that! ("newer" than the original, ok... they release one every 20yrs, so that's the "New" one, lol)
You know your riff is killer when it becomes the Headbangers Ball theme song. One of my all time favorite riffs. Stormtroopers of Death forever!!
Somehow.... Someway, even if you hate the guy.. Get Billy Milano and do it up full tilt! Thanks for posting everything Charlie, very much appreciated 👍
But March has no lyrics?
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS Im referencing all the other SOD material they have done over the past 2 months. It would be absolutely amazing to have the original lineup throw down one last time 😎👍👍
Totally excellent idea
@Rob Foam Billy spits on the crowd all the time. He is the rude one for sure.
I'd rather see it with Mike Patton's singing, this coming from someone who bought speak English or die in 1985 on cassette
Anyone else feel like its 12:30am on a Saturday and we're all watching Headbanger's Ball?
Yeah, and waiting through all the hair metal bands for the heavier videos.
@@gratver MTV were scumbags for putting it on so late thinking no one would watch it.
With the old film footage of the trains crashing into each other
VCR
@@ThunderAppeal Totally agree, I thought they'd keep the headbanger's half-hour and add the headbanger's ball, but those jerkoffs stopped the daily half-hour after a bit.
it‘s like a time machine... back to 1985... again 15 years old...😎😎😎
Danny laying it down. Saw him with Nuclear Assault in Long Beach in 88. He's awesome.
Great song writer and arranger
But can you do , The Milano MOSH!!!
Dont want to in the first place...pffttt
I did the Milano Mosh 28 years ago, during soundcheck, It's at 4 min in this vid:

say where you going?
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS couldn't agree more !!
@@cherigem Lol, I'm a spamaholic...
Sounds like someone's coming. I hope I'm not on his list.
The heaviest tune EVER :)

“ Macabre”Grim reality on display behind Dan . Awesome fucking record 🤘🤘🤘
I always love that song. It's a great thrash metal anthem!!!!!
This had a big impact on my music listening back in the day!
Fantastic, immortal old school thrashing crossover
So simple, yet so fukin heavy. Classic !!!!!
Into to headbangers ball, gotta love those memories!!
Dan Lilker is a legend! Anthrax, S.O.D, Brutal Truth, Nuclear Assault and Lord Goat. I’m sure I missed a few! This riff is in the top 10 vest metal riffs of all time!
Its like seeing my old brothers again. Been into Anthrax since I was 15 in 1985.
These make me smile so much
Always wished they'd have built a longer song off of this killer riff
Thank you guys for recording & posting these awesome tunes videos! Keep going! Everyone stay safe strong and healthy
There's Scott's sick Jackson V!
Me and the Diabetic Drummer did a collab of this called March of the Chromatic Death, on my 1960 BASS-VI played like a down tuned guitar, metal-bro!

Yes you guys did!! Awesome cover at that !!🤘

Charlie looks the same in 2021 as he ever has. Never ages. Despite the persistence of time.
Vuelvo a escucharlo y se me ponen los cuatro pelos k me kedan de punta!🍀👍
More SOD! Yes! Keep ‘em coming! 🤘🤘🤘
I dare anyone not to headbang to this tune. Such a classic metal tune and yet so under rated. Bad a$$ track.
I'm a greaserpunk i learned of S.O.D. because of my father and i have to say i'm enjoying it so far
Jamming to this tune, making empanadas and drinking martinis...never to old for good music.
S.O.D !!! Excellent band 💯🤘🤘🤘👍🏻
I was also ten years old listening to this in 85-86 I'm 45 and still listening also can't forget MOD thanks to my older brother can't thank him enough for all the metal he shared with me
To me, that record/cd has one of the staple of heaviest guitar tones. I remember hearing this in 1987, 12 year old and in 7th grade. I was floored.
Amazing!
Wow I just took a trip back in time with that one I was 19 again playing drums in Jeff longs basement we played all those tunes religiously !
GREAT HARD SOUND!!!!I AM BIG FAN OF ANTHRAX,MIDDLE OF 1990'S!!!!!
I am glad you got Lilker in a vid, love watching the guy, brings back my late teens 20's
Dan is THEE MAN!!!!!!
Charlie sporting the King X shirt 🤘
mad props to the mixer holy hell... now thats what 'live' music should sound like.
That is fuckin’ Awesome vive the old days 👏👏👏👏🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🥁🥁🥁🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Damn i was like 8th grade when this came out! Now im 50
Speak English or die always delivers satisfaction to me every time I hear it!!!
The heaviest riff of all time. Hands down.
It's so cool that your doing this. I hope Anthrax will tour again as soon as your able, and please come to Vegas. You guys jamming at the gate of area 51 would be epic!!!
Well, that makes 2245 times that I have watched this clip...
The whole S.O.D. album is the 💣
Please bring back S.O.D and continue those quarantine video for ever !! Charlie. ... I always drink my coffee when I get up , but this tops the caféine a notch.
I still rock to this song!!! Love it hell yeah!!!
Charlie & Scott don’t age! So fucking awesome. Yeahhhhhh!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I remember this song with sod, is beautiful that i see this band play now
Quarantine is pretty kick ass thanks to these 3 crunching up TH-cam. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I like to imagine all those cd's behind Dan Lilker are all from bands he is in.
They probably are. Lol
Fantastic riff. What a way to start an album. Loved this when it was posted a couple of months ago, and still love it today.
🤘🏿This is what took my virginity for extreme music 35 years ago. Still today I get goose skin listening to this Ouvertüre🤘🏿
This is my new favorite channel. Thanks you, Sir!
Excellent S.O.D. 🎸🤘⚡🥁🤙!!!
Was so awesome this was used as the Headbangers Ball intro when it launched.
This is how all music should sound like ! X🤘🏻X
...this is gonna be played on my wedding and my funeral !
And you’re on his list!
Love the song. Thanks
Super deal! Many thanx 👍 👍. 🤘🤘🤘🦊
That drumming is the Balls.
THANKS !!!
One of the best metal songs!
So heavy & ahead of its time 🤘🏻
When this cd came out this was all
I played loud head banging. Fucking love this.
Awesome!! And Charlie, love your King’s X shirt!!
That riff is still the shit to this day! Headbanging goodness.
Love the kings x shirt Charlie!
Also thanks for playing this, I listened to this at a lot of high school mosh pits! Great album!

Oh fuck yea!!!! I was just listening to this the other day and now this !!! 🤘😎🤘
BLEEARGH I wanted them to go into Sargent D and the S.O.D.!!
God Bless the 80's
Merry Christmas We Quit. NOT!! Back and better than ever. Remember folks, when moshing at home try not to hurt yourself or the furniture.
And the crowd goes wild
ABSOLUTELY BAD-ASS !!!!! Love that fucking Riff just chunky chunk chunk ........
Yess!!!
Scott really likes his Flying V's
It's good to see Dan Lilker playing with Charlie & Scott. I didn't know the story about his removal from Anthrax before this.
To be fair…it was Neil Turbin who did it (singer on Fistful Of Metal album). Behind Scott’s back too, which sucks even more.
Totally love it! S.O.D Was so Boss!🤘👍✌
Anthrax might not be everybody's favorite but their being SOD makes them ultimate OGs
LOVE!!!
30 years later I’m still fucking rocking my mother fuckin head with this riff
Scott Ian's riffing gives such a tight yet sludgy feel thats quite uncommon in thrash metal...so unique in its own way.
Ahhhh...flash backs to my Army Ranger Days....We would listen to this before we'd jump from Blackhawks from 800 feet in the sky....My whole squad was into metal!
masterpiece no more words
yeah man!
S.O.D. ❤ 🤘
We need a reunion tour
Masterpiece.
Heaviest riff ever
Nice T-shirt Charlie.
KINGS FUCKING X🤘
1st song I learnt to play. So simple, yet heavy as fuck.
