Arising from South Africa in 1986 during the dark Apartheid days as a Punk/Hardcore riot act, V.O.D evolved into the country’s most respected Metal band, gaining the title The Godfathers Of SA Metal.

The line-up as it stands today was solidified in the early-’90s. SA music groundbreakers from the get-go, they were also one of the 1st underground bands to record in the UK & tour Europe mid-’90s.
