I own all of Sodom's CD's (and one precious Agent Orange 2xLP re-release on orange vinyl) that I won on the label's site.
Only American thrash band I can say so for is Slayer, because it's fucking Slayer and even my least favourite release (with Hanneman....the one without Hanneman but 2 songs he had written and already had been recorded on the WPB 7" and way better on that one, I own but do not count, should have been a 6 song EP that could have been very solid, but Tom and Paul sound tired, it's not the Paul you hear on Divine Intervention for example, goddamn, not Lars awful, but I didn't expect this especially when I heard him with Exodus, he was sounding good.
Anyway, Agent Orange is the best from the classic era, which this album is the last from, I like the hardcore punkish albums or the doomy stuff they did in the 90's so they never sold out like that American band I mentioned, no Black Album, no Hard Rock.. etc.
I remember that track 4 is really good, some break in all the instruments and this riff that Hanneman could have thought of comes in (sounds psychotic and is not power chords, you know the kind of riff I mean), then when the band comes backs in and Tom yells....goddamn. Not sure if it's track 4, but this made me want to re-listen to it soon, not tonight though, Ambien is hitting hard.
