I have listened Sodom´s music since their "In the Sign of Evil" album and I always liked it (despite the metal press in Argentina, very relying in classic metal, that disliked them). I always found certain similarities between their music and the one that bands like Kreator or Destruction did, and I liked a lot the German thrash metal scene of the eighties.. Here we have their latest powerful release that haves as always Tom Angelripper on bass and devastating vocals, and Bernemann on guitars and Bobby on drums which are a killer duo to join Tom. The lyrics as in many Sodom albums spin around war and its consequences. Here we have a lot of the raw power that have made Sodom famous but with a better production that makes the songs more direct and powerful while clearly mixed. I liked a lot the work of Bobby on drums because he knows how to add the needed heaviness to Sodom´s music. A classic .


Favorite tracks: "Napalm in the Morning"; "Minejumper" and "Lead Injection"
