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 !😊

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!!!!

​@@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.

Hi all from Hungary! Long time ago i was on Sacred Reich concert !

Wiley's guitar work is always tasty. 🏌️‍♂️

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!

Good old times🤘🖤🤘

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..

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.
