we needed more bands like this.....is it too late?.......2007-01-17

one of my fellow reviewers sort of rips these guys, and this cd, as being "dumb fun". well, it may be fun, but it ain't dumb. why do people feel the need to criticize anything that doesn't fit the genre to a "T"? these guys were poli-thrashers (political thrash metalers, for those not in the know). plain and simple. they didn't pretend to be anything else. nor did they need ten minute long tracks to get their point across. appreciate it for what it is: thrash metal with a purpose. not looking to make themselves a million, but to entertain with a message. plain and simple, and effective. they are not Metalicca or Megadeth, but small time rockers who tried something a little different. if you check out the prices of their other releases, i think you may believe they may not be so "dumb" after all. peace.

Good dumb fun..........2005-04-26

Sacred Reich were never brilliant. Some people may try to fool you into thinking that they were some sort of a revolution, but this is hardly the truth. Sacred Reich always did play a somewhat appealing mix of meaty almost-thrash metal that could often entertain me if I was in the right mood. The release "Heal" is no different than the previous albums.

No songs really stand out here, it's the typical "half-mosh" beat done with finesse, skill and fun with some of the typical lyrics that the band hash out on every record. Thankfully, the band haven't changed enough on this release to make me care more or less than I did before. The songs may just make you bang your head...which is the point of metal anyhoo right?

Don't buy this if you are looking for the best metal ever released. This is hardly such...but it's a fun listen if you find it in the used/delete bin with an extra $5 to spare. I don't know how Sacred Reich ever got to be called "legendary" in some circles, but they were a GOOD band in their time.

Pick it up if you find it cheap.

Required Metal.......2004-01-08

Sacred Reich are completely underappreciated and overlooked, but they were one of the elite thrash / metal bands of the 80's and 90's. Heal is a fantastic album with everything you could want from a band. The riffs are cool, the lyrics are always up to par and the production rocks. Plus as an added bonus, Phil can actually sing which is a welcome change from today's junk.

got a music problem? sacred reich will heal it.......2000-08-24

if you are suffering from mainstreamitis, give dr. reich a call and they will heal it. it's a shame that sacred reich broke up, but they paid their dues.

Sacred Reich (What metal is all about).......2000-02-04

Sacred Reich's follow up album from "Independent" Heal is a classic metal album. The power chords hit even harder than before, the starting track hits you with a shockwave of all out metal fury. The power groove rhythms are found through each track along side with the pounding drums and furious lyrics. A must have for any Metal collector.
