A letra da faixa foi escrita por Jeff Hanneman após ele ter comprado duas obras sobre o médico nazista Josef Mengele, detalhando as atrocidades realizadas no campo de concentração de Auschwitz.
O tema de quase cinco minutos relata diretamente os experimentos de Mengele, sem omissões ou juízo de valor, o que provocou acusações de simpatia nazista que perduraram ao longo da trajetória da banda.
A reação dos membros, um grupo multi‑étnico com Tom Araya de origem chilena e Dave Lombardo de origem cubana, reforçou que a banda negava apoio ao nazismo e via a canção como uma “documentação” dos fatos.
A composição foi regravada por bandas suecas: Sins Of Omission em *Flesh On Your Bones* (2001) e Liers In Wait em *Slatanic Slaughter II – A Tribute To Slayer* (1996).
