Anthrax's Scott Ian said on a radio-interview that a S.O.D. (Stormtroppers Of Death) reunion is very unlikely to happen due lack of demand:
Ian: "I don't think someone could pay us enough money to make that happen. I think of S.O.D. as being much bigger than it probably actually is. So to get me to do it, someone would really, really have to want it to happen. People talk about it, and people look back on it, and I know a lot of people, of course, love that record and what we did, but I'll just say it again. When we did it, it's not like people came out like gangbusters and went crazy for it… Some shows in Europe they did, and Japan. But we toured the States in 1999 and 2000, we made two runs through, and it's not like we were selling a lot of tickets. So people had their chance. That kind of had a lot to do with the fact, in my mind, where I felt like we did too much. When we came out, we gave everybody a chance to see it, and people that came out to see it had a great time, but I didn't need to go do it again after that and turn S.O.D. into just a regular band, like a regular gig with baggage. I already have a regular gig, I don't need a second band. S.O.D., for me, was only supposed to be for fun, and then it wasn't fun anymore — it became work — and I already have enough work."
S.O.D. was a great and highly influential '80s crossover thrash band featuring Scott Ian, Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante, ex-Anthrax bassist Dan Lilker and frontman Billy Milano from M.O.D.
