S.A.D.O.

S.A.D.O. is a heavy metal band from Berlin, Germany, that was formed in 1978. The band split up in 1990. S.A.D.O. was an odd band for its time. As one of the early Noise signings in the early eighties, they had very little in common with the label's other acts like Helloween or Running Wild, instead opting for a hard rock sound that at times sounded like either a poor man's Def Leppard with some AC/DC thrown in. The band's lyrical stance seemed to side toward sex and S&M (apparently this worked its way into the live act in some respect)
