Sodom - Get What You Deserve (1994)

  

Sodom is a Speed / Black Metal (early) and Thrash Metal band of German origin. It was founded in 1981 in the city of Gelsenkirchen by Thomas Such (Tom Angelripper) on bass and vocals, and Frank Testegen on guitars. Their name was inspired by the movies "Saló or the 120 days of sodom" and in the movie "Sodom and Gomorrah".

They are part of the German big 4 together with his compatriots Destruction, Kreator and Tankard. Sodom considered one of the bands that defined the sound of Thrash Metal and was also a key band for the creation of extreme Metal. Sodom is also the most successful Thrash band in Germany, having sold more than 8 million records worldwide.

Furthermore his album ''Agent Orange'' is the best selling Thrash Metal album in the history of German Thrash and it also became a Metal classic.

 The lyrics of their songs were at first about Satanism, blasphemy and the occult but since his album ''Persecution Mania'' his lyrics are based on Wars, political themes and death.

The band has their own mascot named Knarrenheinz. In German Knarren means pistol and Heinz is one of the most popular names in Germany. He is a soldier who always wears an oxygen mask and is the protagonist of several Sodom covers.
