Sacred Reich

Sacred Reich is a thrash metal band from Phoenix, Arizona. Formed in 1985, the band was led by singer/songwriter Phil Rind, who focused on socially-conscious and political speed metal.

In recent years, the band has reunited for shows in Europe and released a live performance at Wacken Open Air 2009 on CD and DVD.
