This is a 2021 reissue of this classic LP pressed on 180g Black Vinyl. Formed in 1985, Sacred Reich were an integral part of the 80s and 90s thrash movement, dropping four albums before splitting in 2000.
Ignorance is the debut studio album by American thrash metal mavericks, Sacred Reich. It was originally released on October 13, 1987 by Metal Blade Records. The album was co-produced by the band and Bill Metoyer, who had previously engineered most of Slayer’s early work, and has gone on to produce numerous metal classics!
On Sacred Reich’s 1987 debut “Ignorance”, they speak out on war, racism, political oppression, and other evils. “Death Squad” questions the wisdom of the U.S. government’s supporting right-wing dictatorships in the name of anti-communism, while “Sacred Reich” examines Adolf Hitler’s reign of terror. Invigorating as well as disturbing, this bombastic album indicated that Reich could amount to something special if given a chance to develop. And it turned out that, in fact, the best was yet to come. 2021 pressing includes all original mixes and art.
