Independent (Sacred Reich album)
Independent is the third studio album by American thrash metal band Sacred Reich, released in 1993 by Metal Blade and Hollywood Records. This album is considered to be a slight departure from the band's early thrash metal style heard on their previous releases, with the band incorporating a more groove metal sound.[2] Independent was also Sacred Reich's first full-length with Dave McClain on drums.
