@@09mrhardabs Всё правильно говоришь брат, сейчас США усиленно хотят войны с Россией и спонсируют нацисткий режим на Украине... Уверен, что в Америке поделили конфликт на хороших и плохих и не показывают и не говорят в чем истинная подоплёка конфликта. Но скажу так, если США будет и дальше раздувать этот конфликт оружием и вытягиванием стран НАТО в этот конфлики всё закончится ядерными ударами. США и Европа перестанут существовать. Неужели у тупых политиков есть в этом сомнения? А население наверное и не в курсе, как близко их уничтожение в ядерном Холокосте и всё потому что больные политики США лезут в каждую дырку и пихая своих солдат в каждую щель. Но без обид, но американские солдаты привыкли воевать только с слабыми армиями. Привыкли, как на сафари отстреливать аборигенов, с русским солдатом так не получится, там мощь и сила, привыкли воевать в любых условиях, а американцы без туалетной бумаги и кока-колы на обед уже превращаются в капризных девочек.... И при первом же артобстреле навалят вебе в подгузники и будут просится домой. Но так больше не получится воевать только на чужой территории.... Воевать придётся на своей.
My dad grew up listening to Sacred Reich his high school and early college years, even opened for them a couple times! These guys are completely down-to-earth! Listen to the lyrics, and take them to heart!
Thanks for making us 'dads' feel so old! Our generation are blessed as we got to hear & see these 'classic' metal bands the first time around. Peace to the over 40's and the young generation for listening to classic band's
having a flashback evening...going back and forth between Sacred Reich-M.O.D.-D.R.I-Murphy's Law-and a little Metallica/Megadeath/Maiden...Bring back the late 80s early 90s and GET IN THE PIT
saw a t shirt with surf nicaragua, that brought back a memory from my 80's metal.. love the internet..this is what i found... GREAT MUSIC, Metal Music and the House of Hair "Dee Snyder" thank you for that show.. RULES... I'm 55 and old school,,,classic rock and Metal **** enough said****
Thanks for the upload, and taking me back to my teens in '88. In the UK we didn't have a Thrash scene, so any new American bands were welcome. I remember hearing this for the first time back in 1988 then buying any SR bootleg tapes I could. Good times
Ola Hansson I've never been a huge OverKill fan, they have some tracks I like but OverAll, I'm not a fan hahaha. But yeah this Sabbath cover kills it, but my favorite sabbath metal cover has to be Doom's version of Symptoms of the Universe
I love Sacred Reich. They are awesome..I remember getting this way back when. I always love their first album "Ignorance" the best though. But everything after was great too.
Been a pretty serious thrashhead in my life (during myvearly teens especially), some decades later now whenever i wanna listen to some thrash i pick these guys along with some coroner, some sacrifice, dri ,celtic frost & anacrusis. Oh, early kreator too and some annihilator too..F awesm thrash!
Back in the 80s bands like Sacred Reich and Nuclear Assault were known for their social n political lyrics...so they thread that fine line between thrash n crossover...love them anyway
discovered this band like a year ago when I was 16 on my recommended here.. it is insane how underrated they are. they definitely could've become one of the big names in thrash metal! I really wish more people my age took time to listen to these bands too
Yeah I always liked this record. I owned it on cassette and listened to it all the time. I love the changes and all the musicians are on top of their game.
Amazing sound..this album is very fucking great sound recording..a drum sound make me feel like in studio to see sacred reich jamm..best thrash metal album of all time..
I usually find it difficult to get into pure thrash metal bands other than the obvious big 4, Kreator, Sepultura, Kreator, Testament, Overkill and Havok, but this one really struck a chord for sure.
Dude saw these kats in reseda at the country club back in 88-89? A good friend of mind turned me on to these guys. Best night ever!!! Had a blast!! Thanks ART. never will forget.
First off, the drumming on this whole EP is so good it's ridiculous. Dude makes playing 147th notes sound like a walk in the park. Skills like Buddy Rich or Dennis Chambers. Metal as anything. I remember my friend Mark getting this tape at Ace's Records in Tampa. I don't know how many times we flipped that tape. "War Pigs" hasn't sounded this good since it came out in the 70's; these guys were the first to put a truly unique (and metal!) spin on it without it sounding lame or label-driven. IMO, the only other good cover of WP is the Faith No More treatment on The Real Thing album, and even that doesn't hold a candle to SC's version. If you enjoy metal and you appreciate excellent musicianship, play this EP and crank it up. Your neighbors might not be happy, but you will.
That's funny! I always told people the same exact thing. Sacred Reich did it the best, then Faith no more. Everyone else seemed to fail big on this for some reason.
I saw them play with Municipal Waste (2023). First time I had heard of em, let alone see em live that. Damn that drummer live was insane. After the show, I immediately went to the merch store there n snagged a band shirt haha. 🤘
when I was growing up in Phx,Az and these guys used to see me and put my little but out of 'harms"way which meant posted on top of the pa s or backstage within arms reach of the drummer to mosh and get radical V.I.P. style.... Thanks guys the one, the only, Lil'Dave. L n R

Let's not forget that they just graduated high school the same year that "Ignorance" was released.
Bought this album when it 1st came out I was in h.s. many years ago... ignorance , and surf , and American way are great , great albums ...
and was featured in Encino Man..

Sacred Reich. One of the best bands of the thrash era. This music still has the balls to stand up to any so called music metal of today.
If you love thrash this has to be in your collection, if not your missing out!!!!
Fucking A right! I saw them open for Danzig back in the day.\,,/
Thats badass!
Too bad the songs are few.
FACTS
💯
Saw them in a tiny little club in Chicago, 1990. Opening bands were Forced Entry & Obituary. These guys did an awesome cover of Sweet Leaf. It was my first concert ever
Seen them at the thirsty whale in Chicago! They opened up for forbidden! Awesome show indeed!!!!
I too saw them in a tiny little club somewhere in that time frame. In So. Cal. though. Forbidden opened for them. It was the shit
Awesome. Miss those times
@paulhabrelewicz7749 thirsty whale was Awesome! Go grab a hot dog at Gene and judes, forbidden to ask for ketchup.
I am 65 years old , I was listening to hendrix while he was alive , love this music , but how much is original , all creative credit to these musicians , wish I could play as good ! Timing is a hard thing to find and these folks do it well !😊
Saw them in 1990 with testament, dark angel, and sanctuary.
Damn you are a lucky man.
Vince Ruland That must have been one fucking badass show!!!
Vince Ruland on my bucket list
It was a sweet show. I wish it wasn't so long ago tho. I'm getting older and my memory sucks. Haha.
Vince Ruland when I first heard machine head, I thought it was Sacred Reich. kontos kicks ass, that being said Dave pretty FN good to
Such a criminally under appreciated thrash masterpiece!
17wadelee under appreciated band in general....fantastic musicians(Greg Hall is a killer drummer) with the best lyrics imo
If you think this is a masterpiece you have no ear for music at all lol
@@derekobs I'd love to hear what you consider a masterpiece. Not being sarcastic...
Because they ruin it with that dumb ass wipeout bullshit.

Sacred Reich and Nuclear Assault go hand in hand
SuperKevents lol think a more accurate compassion for Nuclear Assault would be S.O.D./M.O D. considering most of the members are the same.
No, Nuclear Assault is similar to Sacred Reich, being the song structure is similar. SOD was more short, often parody types of songs.
Nuclear assault songs are short blasts and get to the point. SR has more progression/ lasting solos ect.
Nuclear assault is way better than reich
why??? lol
always loved greg halls drumming
Another classic by the mighty Sacred Reich
Hello old friend... thrash classic right here!
RIP Jason Rainey. Loved this band as a kid. Thank you so much!
He passed away?!!! I didn't know that. 🙁
That drumming! That bass sound! That everything! This sounds just as fresh as it did so many years ago! Fantastic stuff!
Best album they did. Lived in Phoenix 1991 and still never seen em...damn.
This album stands up 27 years gone no shit!

Saw them in 1994 with Sepultura (Thebarton Theatre, Adelaide, Australia). It was the Chaos AD tour.
This is a masterpiece
Greg;s drumming is so good on War Pigs.
Aaaaaah. My youth. Awesome album from very underrated band
N disavowed are awesome too..!!!!
Its third rate thats why its not rated, why do you ppl have to call every mediocre shit underrated lol
Holy shit, I'm listening to this after more than twenty years. Fuck this album was good! Underrated band.
Saw them with Sick Of It All, Napalm Death & Sepultura. That show was madness!
I saw it in Tempe August of 91
I saw them with Sepultura 1992...best ever
I haven't heard this album in so many years I almost forgot they did a cover of War Pigs. Great cover too
Man did i play the Snot out of this Cassette.
I have to admit their cover or War Pigs is great.
Hell Yeah! Even better than Overkills version
Ola Hansson I've never been a huge OverKill fan, they have some tracks I like but OverAll, I'm not a fan hahaha. But yeah this Sabbath cover kills it, but my favorite sabbath metal cover has to be Doom's version of Symptoms of the Universe

Listening to this album since it was released, and being totally satisfied with it. I'm sure Phil Rind and the boys also consult it from time to time.
how could it...NOT. **********
Yes, this album is pure and clean. Unadulterated stuff which at the same time is timeless.
man, i got into downhill bikes, got interested in surfing, remembered I've never given this a spin
