The Way It Is--RealAudio

Phoenix-based Sacred Reich has been on the metal scene since the late '80s, and has formed a decent underground following over time. The band's sound is a bit of a power, semi-thrash mix, in that there's bits of Flotsam and Anthrax, but also solid and choppy work, ala Jag Panzer. The lyrics are often tinged with political themes, making them a bit of a "thinking man's" group.
Several sturdy tracks are to be found, including "The Way It Is," "State of Emergency," and the title cut. Both "Crimes Against Humanity" and "I Don't Know" are good as well.
