Solid, if not a a bit unremarkable. It's decent, but a tad too disjointed and eclectic for my taste.

Fun and nasty old-school thrash attack.

Do people actually listen music with their ears or with their asses? How can this spastic, atonal, off-tune, primitive crap have a 3.6 average? I tell you why, hipsters and edgelords. This album and especially the early phase of Sodom in general is hyped as precursor to black metal and thus this album and the previously released EP get undeserved attention. But even so, had fans actually listened to this album with their ears, rather than their asses, they would have notice that more than half the time the band members are off-synched. It is as if everybody is playing randomly, incoherently, fast primitive thrash riffs and on top of that, with a very bad production quality. How the hell this band recorded Persecution Mania just 1 year after releasing this pile of dung is beyond me. It is as if two different bands played on this record. Nothing here stands out, mostly because of the extremely bad songwriting, sewer production quality and most likely, a lack of proper instrumental handling. The Sodom guys were still young and they seem as if they did not yet master their instruments, a thing noticeable on the works preceding this album. Avoid. Whatever stylistic significance this album may have to future sub-genres, the fact remains that there is no songwriting quality to be found here. Except for hipsters and edgelords.
