thrash metal band Sodom, their last with guitaristFrank Blackfire . The lyrical content delves deeply into mainman'sTom Angelripper 's fascination with theVietnam War , sporting a song dedicated to the ground assault aircraft Magic Dragon as well as the herbicide-inspired title-track. In line with the tenets of thrash metal the conflict in itself is not glorified but depicted in a grim and realistic way. It was the first thrash metal album to enter the German album charts.
