Sacred Reich was a Phoenix based thrash metal band that formed in 1986. Singer/songwriter Phil Rind's interest was in socially-conscious and political speed metal. After several records on Metal Blade Records, they signed to Hollywood Records for a short stint, but later returned to Metal Blade to continue their musical career. After fourteen years, the band decided to call it a day in 2000.
Former drummer Dave McClain went on to join Machine Head from December 26th 1995 to the present day. Lead Guitarist Wiley Arnett went on to form The Human Condition in 2001.
