SODS were formed in Copenhagen in 1977 and are considered the first Danish punk band. In autumn 1978 they recorded their first album, Minutes to Go, which became an important part of punk's primal and foundational wave. With the release of their second album, Under en Sort Sol, in 1980, their music became a bit more somber and avantgarde. This release documents the progression of SODS from their initial raw punk era of 1977-1979 to the first signs of their eventual transformation into Sort Sol, one of Denmark's best-known bands. It features rough and spirited live performances of tracks mostly released on their two albums Minutes to Go and Under en Sort Sol, plus one piece from Daggers and Guitars (which was only published three years later in 1983 as the first Sort Sol album), as well as the fantastic "Breathtaking Effect" which weirdly never made it onto a release. Sides A, B and C collect tracks from three Danish live shows from 1979 and 1980 in chronological order. Side D then returns to the very beginnings with an ultra-raw recording of a high-energy rehearsal from around the spring of 1978.
