Stormtroopers of Death - Bigger Than the Devil (1999)

The Good
Well this is one follow up album that has a lot to live up to.  Fourteen years after Speak English or Die, the SOD boys decided to grace us with another studio album.  On the whole, this release is actually better.  Now it won't have the impact or be as memorable, but it is a better album.  The title track, Make Room, Make Room and We All Bleed Red are my favorites

The Bad
None of the songs stand out as really memorable like the ones on Speak English or Die but there are really no bad songs in the bunch.

The Packaging
The cover has mascot Sgt. D in the spot of Iron Maiden's Eddie in a take on IM's Number of the Beast cover art.  The lyrics page has a bunch of drawings including one of the band in Simpsons style characters.

Bottom Line
Don't take what these guys say too seriously and you should really enjoy this.  If you don't already have it, make sure you get the version with the bonus tracks Seasoning the Obese, Raise Your Sword and Ballad of the Scorpions.
