		Sodom were formed by Thomas Such (v/b), Christian Dudeck (dr) and Frank Testegen (g) in 1980 in the Western German industrial town of Gelsenkirchen.
		This would also begin Sodom's obsession with war and the military, as opposed to the "look how evil we are" lyrics of the band's debut.
		I would certainly agree that this was one of Sodom's finest outputs, however, to say it's their best ever is to ignore the brilliance of albums to come like "Code Red" and "M-16".

	HOMOSEXUALITY IN THE BIBLICAL BOOK OF GENESIS: SODOM AND GOMORRA
		Sodom was derived from the Hebrew word "S'dom," which means "burnt." Gomorrah is derived from the Hebrew word "'Amorah," which means "a ruined heap." These appear to be place names which were assigned after the disaster and were not their original names.
		It can mean "men of the city, even the men of Sodom." But it can also mean "the people of the city, the people of Sodom." It appears that the KJV and NIV translators, perhaps influenced by their homophobia, chose a translation that would make the mob all male.
		Perhaps the sin of Sodom was the threat of mass rape.

	References on Homosexuality and the Bible
		The men of Sodom could not have been exclusively homosexual in their orientation in the sense that the term is used today.
		Rather than concentrating on homosexuality, the Sodom story seems to be focusing on two specific evils: (1) violent gang rape and (2) inhospitality to the stranger.
		Concerning the inhospitality described in the Sodom story, John McNeil reminds Christians of the irony that no group has been treated less hospitably by the church than the homosexual community, and that the biblical passage used to justify such treatment has been the very one that condemns uncharitable behavior.

	Sodom - Black Metal
		Review: While using the anthemic of their 1980s album, Sodom have produced a new style which is more of a chant-along roller coaster of raging media-age heavy metal than anything else, leaving older fans probably bored and disappointed but outdoing several newer generations of idiots trying the same thing.
		Where Sodom still thunders is in the capacity to architecturally conceive of the kind of tonal motion needed to convey with rhythm a certain setting, using a sense of self-identification with overwhelming motion to create a sense of storming power and alarm.
		While that is the case, a collection of riffs reveal the placement of tones in strategic places to generate hooks and expectancy, and in that the simple ballad-anthem soul of this music - and in that, Sodom dispense with their past and open a dubious future.
