Notes:
"Obsessed by Cruelty" is the 1986 debut album. It was re-released together with "In the Sign of Evil" in 1988.
Though generally unknown, two different versions of this album exist. They had to record the album twice because their record company was not satisfied with the result. The first version was recorded in Berlin and the second version in Nuremberg. According to Tom Angelripper, the second recording is "completely different" and includes a bonus track called "After the Deluge" because they had a different guitar player.

Total Time: 1:34:15
Notes:
'In War and Pieces' is the 13th studio release from German Thrash heavy hitters SODOM, and sees a return to the early sound of SODOM. Don't let that statement fool you, this is no throwback album by any means, It blends modern production (without feeling overly produced), with the classic SODOM style.
If you want to know what 'In War And Pieces' is all about look no further than the title track and first song that you can hear at this location. It's clean, and it's definitely mean. Angelripper and company are at the top of their game, and this may be the strongest SODOM release since 'Agent Orange'.
The album (as stated earlier) kicks things off in full force with the title track 'In War And Pieces'. After a short "intro" 'I.W.& P.' instantly causes an involentary head bob, and the riff sucks you in and spits you out, this is SODOM at their very best, and sure to take it's place among SODOM classics like 'Agent Orange', 'The Saw Is The Law', and 'M-16'.
This album keeps pounding you with aggression throughout the first 6 tracks, mixing all out thrash, with some well placed, short, melodic interludes. 'Soul Contraband' would at first appear to be a bit of a break in it's aggressiveness. Starting off a bit slower, and with a bit of a chugging riff, but as the song goes on, Angelripper builds into more and more of an angered tone, so while the pace of the music itself, may be a bit slower than the rest of the album, this might be the 'ugliest' song on the album. Angelripper is one of those vocalist who has the ability to not just scream, yell or get louder, but convey a feeling, or in this case the festering of rage.
Knarrenheinz is easily, the fastest song on the album. This song is a pit (un)friendly neckbreaker. The album is rounded out with 'Styptic Parasite', this song has more of a rock n' roll feel to it, almost like a Carcass tune, it's a rock song with bite.
Overall this may be my favorite release from SODOM...ever. After what is nearing 30 years and many lineup changes, SODOM has held up, and stayed true to what they are better than almost all of the peers in the thrash world. 'In War And Pieces' is poised to be the must have metal release of (2010) 2011, and another in the long line of SODOM classics.
