Sacred Reich - Full Show - Live at Wacken Open Air 2017

[@thrashmetalmaniac72]

Who the hell cares what these guys look like? When was thrash glamorous? Still as vital sounding as it was in 1988!!!

[@cistysaigon]

exactly, I see old guys playing, I definitely dont hear old guys playing :)

[@kevinw8688]

Thank you. Fuck the haters. The people running their yaps will likely be heavier when they are in their late 40s, 50s too, but do ANY of them rock like Sacred Reich? Fuck no...if you're whining about what they look like you're a poser, the SAME thing thrash railed against...a focus on LOOKS. Fuck off to the haters.

[@thrashmetalmaniac72]

Kevin W well said my friend...

[@thrashmetalmaniac72]

[@mikecheck7940]

Still very very very valid! Miss my college days

53 here and a metalhead since the early eighties and for life.

[@guyf3115]

That's what thrash metal is about: frantic rhythm, killer riffs and political-implyed lyrics. That's what Sacred Reich is. Hail Sacred Reich!!!

[@daveclark2712]

And pie. Lots and lots of pie. Fried chicken also

[@kazzz8820]

Better than NSBM... thrash for ever !!! Heil

[@deanpesaturo6401]

Political is usually punk hardcore music; yet with some metal bands like this one and Megadeth I agree. Dave Mustaine is a Trump supporter after all. This time around it isn’t Orange Man = Bad Guy like the ultra leftist party wants us to think, but more so Old Racist White Dementia Ridden soon to be a nursing home patient = giving the Ukraine trillions of dollars; military equipment and weapons to kill us all off when they release the next virus called Xanadu coming soon to a country near You! Vote for Trump in November 2024 kids! Either that or it’ll be Kamala or more than likely Michelle Obama’s regime!! Thank You for listening- Professor David J. Goldbaum political strategist and scientific advisor at Harvard University Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 ❤

[@ericwyatt3646]

Phil Rind is a legend. Wish Greg Hall was still drumming for them.

[@lisanders11]

100% with you

[@chadsmith66]

Remember when we would talk with friends and say were going to be old and still thrashing? This is it god bless them and all you metalheads out there!!!!

[@nigelskrypt]

@Motoroil Being 17 in the metal scene is fascinating, I love hearing the older people's stories!

[@70saintanger]

Cheers to you brother!

Man, the drummer is insane. He just fills in the right mood to all the riffs.

[@123andme]

Why are people making fun of their weight and being rude? I thought this was a concert video and not a witch hunt. Very sad what people have become when they don't like people because they are not thin.

[@jonasdigioia7474]

That was basically half the comments when Waken TV posted them playing Surf Nicaragua at this show. Crazy, like appreciate the music, doesnt matter how they look

[@mikevoss3732]

Welcome to the new world where people are as deep as a bottle cap. Spoiled rotten souls have ruined these human being making fun of a band who was thrashing out before they were shitting there pants. I for one enjoyed this video thoroughly. Thank you

[@mifo2069]

The new wave of metal(dick)heads....Glamster inside,at my ages in the 80's people like that will be kicked in their mouth and throw inside in a Disco,the true place where belong this morons.

[@fredriksvard2603]

Can we just appreciate the cool "S" in the logo that everyone drew in high school

[@gringochucha]

Who gives a shit how much they weigh. They fucking slay live and that’s all that matters.

[@connorcunningham1332]

Amazing that they still sound exactly the same

[@DrDaveWrestling]

Most underrated drummer in metal

[@amymartin8186]

I agree 👍

[@WilliamDurrant-km4gd]

Mr Greg Hall is ridiculous,lucky to know him and the rest from AZ when weed was illegal amongst the other fun

[@deanpesaturo6401]

No. That’ll be Dale Crover of the MELVINS of course ❤ So is this the original lineup for Sacred Reich or what.??

[@danielgreen2788]

one of the best bands f all time, period.

[@christineblack4654]

yup up there with d.r.i and suicidal tendencies etc..

[@leethomas255]

Thanks for the upload Wacken, Sacred Reich are A great example of WHY thrash in the 80's and 90's will NEVER be bettered, seems like 1985 was just yesterday...

[@screemin187]

Greg Hall's drumming as always, outstanding in this

[@vladgutierrez94]

It's a shame he's no longer with SR.

[@shannonjaxx5091]

Absolutely.. Greg is a effin beast man.. always was ,, always will be.. and yeah, it really sucks he's not w these guys any more.. I think Dave is back in the band but no matter who is in the band they still kill it.. love Sacred Reich..

[@robertgutierrez8464]

Ready to go see Sacred Reich next month in Fresno CA ...

[@bkr23]

@@robertgutierrez8464 Saw them here in Copenhagen on The American Way tour, and next month they are coming by after all those years. Promise, we will take good care of them, and squeeze every encore out of them we possibly can :)

This is the real shit. So happy to see these guys rocking like the 80s never has gone.

[@ragnarlothbrok8116]

This shit reals

[@nubeirothropic]

Just like Nuclear Assault, after so many years and they're still rocking like it's the 80's.

[@thrashnicity5913]

It sounds better now than it did in the 80$!

[@eddogwinner1809]

Phil's voice still sounds Awesome!!! His bass is real punchy too!!! Saw them with DBC in 88'!!! \mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm/

[@Holliz73]

Damn, Greg Hall is still a fucking beast behind the drumkit! He was one of my fav drummers back then, and he still got what it takes.

[@annonuhm617]

Not really, you can hear and see in this video why they threw him out. Unsecure breaks, wrong speeds, bad timing. Frontman looks very dissatisfied at some points, in first song even shakes his head and tries to give signals to drummer.

[@Holliz73]

Anno Nühm They threw him out? When? Still think he did pretty good. To be fair, they are all sloppy at some parts of the show.

[@annonuhm617]

it's fresh news, like 20 hours ago or so

[@Holliz73]

Yes he was fired. But the reason is still unknown.

[@WolfsPyroFX]

Phil always looks dissatisfied lol

[@jpazviera]

Greag Hall among the drummers with the best technique, great sensitivity, great sense of dynamics, and great power. I'd say besides Phil lyrics SR owns his success mostly to Greg's drumming.

[@DystopianJoe]

looks and sounds like they REALLY mean it again. Back in the studio fellas?

They sounds great! for some bands time means nothing.Same as Nuclear Assault

[@vpguitarcovers4088]

what about death angel?

[@randomeststranger]

Death Angel were so young in the 80s, so they're not that old now.

[@grindworker]

love this band

[@christineblack4654]

sounds amazing guyssss!!! ever since surf nicaragua I fell in love. the voice of thrash metal along with D.R.I.

[@scottstephens5289]

Saw them in 1994 in a hole in the wall place in Phoenix Arizona. They blew the roof off the place! They still sound great after all these years.

[@AdrianHernandez-go8mg]

I remember seeing them in 1988 at this place called Bogart’s in L.A they kicked ass!!

[@RebornThroughHate]

Very well played. Glad I can hear that nice bass sound throughout.

[@shizokiller]

All these years later and the boys are still kicking ass!! Wonderful to hear

[@Cenot4ph]

The fact these old guys have to get back on stage is a testament how sad the state of metal is at the moment. The 80s/90s were the pinnacle of the genre and hasn't been topped.

[@DavidPuddy2024]

"have to get back on stage"?? Maybe these "old" guys WANT to get back on stage, and maybe many of us want them to as well. Perhaps I misunderstand your wording, if so I apologize.

[@iancaley2347]

Personally, i think metal is in great shape right now, many awesome bands are out there. But yeah, i do look back to when i was in my youth, Priest, Scorpions etc whilst at school, Maiden and NWOBHM....then it all changed early 80's as the more extreme bands poured out in droves. I still find that time the most exciting, and i agree, those two decades spurned much that, i think, hasn't been topped

[@claweight]

No way, they are just keeping it going! Fucking 80's thrash. Nobody is forcing them to do anything.

[@guillotinedeath]

i saw them in 1991 with sepultura in london and they are still as good today as then!!!!!

What a great Blast from the past! I saw these guys in concert so many times in the 80’s and 90’s and got the privilege to hangout with them a lot! Jason and friends would come into Garcia’s on 43rd ave and Encanto. I bartended there and later at the hungry hunter on I17 and Indian School! I miss Jason and all the guys! I hope to see them again

I grew up in Phoenix, and used to see these guys at the mason jar often... along with Flotsam and Jetsam (Jason Newsted). Great to see both bands are still rocking. There was a band called Surgical Steel that played there a lot also, but they never seemed to get it going. They were more glam, so it's no wonder.

[@megadethmofo2035]

I saw Surgical Steel once...they opened for Krokus in a little shit hole bar near 39th and Indian School. I think it's an auto parts store now. I still think about that show every time I drive past it....'83 maybe?
