Special Record-Label ART Collector's LP Record information

Gramophone Record labels have been mainly used to print information related to the contents of the album. However some more creative minds have used the record labels to display some fine pieces of contemporary art. On these web-pages you will find a gallery of creative art on the record labels.

This record label art gallery is work in progress, please email your contributions to me

Persecution
Sodom - Persecution Mania "Persecution Mania" is the second album by Sodom. The album marked a drastic change of sound from primitive black metal to thrash metal. As well as defining Sodom's sound, it exemplified the thrash metal genre at a time when it arguably peaked in popularity. The album also bore similarity to the music of fellow German bands such as Destruction and Kreator, and the term "Teutonic" thrash was coined from this.
