Sodom
Persecution Mania
[Steamhammer]


Sodom loses their rawer blacker aspects and adopts a more speed metal approach. Their technical ability improved over their previous two full-lengths (not sure if their single/EP was out before this), memory fails me at the moment). Sounding more polished, fuller but still basically strong German thrash. Best songs 'Nuclear Winter' and Motorhead cover 'Iron Fist'. As a bonus you get that previously mentioned EP ('Sodomy And Lust', 'Conqueror' & 'My Atonement') with this disc. I felt the EP was better than persecution Mania itself.
