Yeah I definitely wouldn't say they had a crossover image. The sound def has a heavy hardcore influence, but I'd call them more early extreme metal.

Oh the image, I was just referring to the military gear on the covers, that's often a punk thing.

Yeah like I said, they have a pretty close link to hardcore and crust punk. But war was always a big theme in thrash, and especially for Sodom. I'd say that if it weren't for Venom and Hellhammer they could have easily just been a crust band.

this is why i primarily listen to doom metal....the vocals tend to be secondary to the music....if there are vocals at all

Yeah we didn't pick a new genre to vote on Friday. Thought Frownland was taking it over.
