Metal Blade Records released a three-disc deluxe reissue of SACRED REICH's "Ignorance" and "Surf Nicaragua" in June 2007. Two CDs are included in the package (both remastered!) as well as a bonus DVD. The package, which was made available in Europe only, includes liner notes by Rind and Malcolm Dome (Classic Rock, Metal Hammer, Total Rock Radio) and an extensive booklet with loads of previously unpublished photos.

I just read this on a myspace bulletin too.
Speaking of S.R. I've got a Surf Nicaragua shirt on the way in the post. Can't fuckin' wait to get it!

I don't mind Heal. I thought it was a pretty cool album to listen to when drunk as shit!

Surf Nicaragua is just fucking brillaint when you're pissed. Many nights trying to sing that after too many beers.

I listened to Heal a few years ago and I really didn't like it. I might just have to download it or something and give it another go.

I think this reissue is a slight disappointment though - Ignorance and Surf Nicaragua got re-released together, so how come we don't have The American Way and Independant together? Independant was brilliant.
