[b]Brief History:[/b]
Sacred Reich is a Thrash Metal band from Phoenix, Arizona that first formed in 1985. Singer/songwriter Phil Rind's interest was in socially-conscious and political music. After releasing two albums and three EPs, drummer Greg Hall left and was replaced by Dave McClain. They released two more albums with Dave before Greg returned for a live album. The band split in 2000.
Dave went on to join Machine Head in 1996. Lead guitarist Wiley Arnett went on to form The Human Condition with St. Madness vocalist Prophet in July of 2000.
In 2007, the band reunited to play several shows in Europe, including Wacken Open Air. However, according to an interview with bassist/vocalist Phil Rind, there are no plans to record a new Sacred Reich album.
Since their debut, Sacred Reich has released 5 albums, 1 Live album, 3 EPs, and 5 singles.

Exactly! Music sucks. Don't bother listening to it.
Hell yeah Surf Nicaragua.

Yeah man, I can't watch movies with sound anymore because the music ruins everything...
About fucking time.
I didn't bother making this thread (wanted to for over a year though) because, since I would have made the thread, it would have been ignored and fall off the front page in less than a day.
Also, fuck you. I wanted to post "31 Flavors." Best damn song on [i]The American Way[/i]. Parodies with actual messages, fuck yeah.
Also, I don't know if anybody else shares this opinion, but in my opinion Sacred Reich's magnum opus was [i]American Way[/i]. [i]Ignorance[/i] was all right (not good enough for me to buy it, though), and then [i]Heal[/i] had a few songs I liked (mostly the self-titled; the others I either can't find on YouTube or don't much care for, or I'm split down the middle on them, like "Don't"). [i]Independent[/i] I have admittedly not listened to much at all.
Sacred Reich forever. I want them to reform. It would be awesome.
:iia:
