S.O.B.

:(This page is about the Japanese hardcore punk band. For the British techno artist of the same name, see S.O.B.(2)).
S.O.B. (abbreviated from Sabotage Organized Barbarian) are a hardcore punk rock band formed in Osaka, Japan in 1983. Their original vocalist Yoshitomo "Tottsuan" Suzuki committed suicide in 1995. They are also considered hugely influential on grindcore bands such as Napalm Death and the genre of death metal as well as one of the mainstays of the thrashcore genre. The band have sometimes been described as grindcore, themselves.
==Links to Peel==
Peel seemed to have discovered the band in 1988, when they released a 7" flexi disc, which they shared with other Japanese and North American hardcore punk bands. Further material from the band were played by Peel including a session which they did for his show in 1990 performing six tracks. By the end of 1991, Peel had lost interest in the band and moved on to other artists. After Peel's death in 2004, it was later found out that he had three of the band's records in his Record Collection: S.
