I've been on a huge Sodom kick lately. They are easily one of my top three old school bands. Anyone else here a Sodom fan? What is your favorite Sodom album?

I only have one Album Agent Orange But I love every min of it!
Hell Mike
fuck melodic black metal
It's time to die
Death stands behind the door
Satan sends his warriors
Demons break out from hell!
In other words: They rock, In the Sign of Evil rocks the most.

Agent Orange and Code Red are my favorites, Persecution Mania and M16 being close follow-ups.
I prefer their pure thrash albums over their blacky and punky stuff.

I am really into german thrash, as well as bay area, but they have their own scene which I love (you get what I mean right?) so sodom is an important character to me, but I do have to say I prefer destruction and kreator over them. I am wearing my destruction patch as I post.
\m/ Thats fucking metal! Destruction Rules!! I never could get into Sodom. I don't know why.The saYer said:

As soon as I put on my jeans-jacket I'm wearing Sodom, Venom, Testament and Slayer patches to name a few... Pit armour is absolutely necessary.

Sodom? Ha, I've been into them since The Mortal Way Of Live came out back in 1988. Were my favorite Thrash band for a long time but left me rather pissed and indifferent while the mid-90s. Masquerade In Blood sucks elephant dick, that's for sure! Anyway, if I were to recommend some of their stuff I'd suggest these:
Agent Orange
Code Red
Persecution Mania
M-16
Tapping The Vein
Of course, that depends on whether you prefer the songs with the catchy hooklines or the highspeed thrashers. If it's the hooks then go for M-16 and Agent Orange. For Metal mayhem pick up the rest of the list. You hear me, Jonny?
In The Sign Of Evil and especially Obsessed By Cruelty are a totally different matter though. Personally I like em both very much. But I do understand everyone who complains about them. Those are more for the die hards, I suppose. Early Black Metal with a production so crappy it makes early Venom albums sound totally clean and well-balanced.
Anybody of you guys ever listened to the European LP version of OBC? I'm just asking, cause as this topic surfaced I might as well put an end to that rumour going on about that record. I know that the tracklist on the CD doesn't match the actual songs. Well, for everybody still wondering what went wrong there: there are two different versions of the album. The printed tracklist is from the re-done version while the songs on the CD are the originals. Sodom changed the intro and the tracklist, improved the production and the songs a bit. And yes, this seemingly non-existing track After The Deluge is NOT just a myth! I have it. Don't know why the label never released the proper version. Speaking about it - does anybody know if the re-done version was released on CD in another country?

Someone mentioned the punky stuff. I'm not into those as much as their thrash, which is most of their stuff. I downloaded their demo, Victims of Death, and it is nowhere near as good as their pure thrash stuff.
Sodom are great. I have Code Red and Tapping The Vein. Both are awesome. Next on my list is Agent Orange.
