There are at least two bands called Soul Assassins:1) Soul Assassins are a loose collective of musicians and graphic artists affiliated to the hiphop group Cypress Hill, formed in the early 90s. It is also the name of Cypress Hill's publishing company.
In 1997 and 2000 two albums under the name Soul Assassins were released. Both albums featured an army of rappers and both were almost entirely produced by Cypress Hill's beatsmith DJ Muggs, with minor contributions by The Alchemist (three songs) and DJ Khalil (one song) on the second volume.
A third volume, tentatively titled "Khreased Khakis" is in the making and was announced to be released in 2007 or 2008 on DJ Muggs' label Angeles Records.Soul Assassins are not connected in any way to the 80s UK hiphop group Assassins With Soul.

Since May 2006, the SouL AssassinS are walking on the road of metal, with strong will and love, in everything we do! In November the same year, it was launched the demo CD - THRASH METAL ATTACK, which has been, by the way, very well accepted in the underground circles.
Some barriers have been won in a very short time and probably many more will be in the future.
