Destruction - D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N., 2008 CD Album Candlelight Records USA - CDL428CD The riffs, the speed metal, the bullet belts! In 84, Sodom, Kreator and Destruction were among the first to fuel the fire of the almighty German thrash metal scene. What an awesome and brain-blowing era, all this noise, all this leather, all this frenzy! The Sentence Of Death poster was hanging over my bed and Infernal Overkill was in this endless rotation of the 85 summer with Hell Awaits, Dealing With It, Screams From The Gutter, Morbid Tales, Tales of Terror, Animosity, Raging Violence... Sorry for the time-travelling again. But records speak to me louder than photographs. Now Destruction didn't seduce me as much with their following releases, and although the come-back albums since All Hell Breaks Lose are great, I lost interest after the killer Metal Discharge, and finally stopped buying their stuff: this is why you do not get the 5 or 6 other albums. Get all the missing titles from the amazing Old Tendencies. But you do get The Least Successful Human Cannonball, although it is regarded as the ultimate repulsion by most fans and the whole band: I totally love the thing. It is an incredible hard rock album, I like it much more than the newest stuff. It does not sound like Destruction, but it is completely amazing nonetheless. In no way is it the Load or Cold Lake of Destruction. It simply fucking rocks. Release From Agony was wrongfully tagged as LP (it's a CD rip). I never found affordable copies of the Destruction & Them Not Me mini CDs so the posted rips are downloaded mp3s, yes. Remove brackets and unzip: [sentence of inzernal zer] !ZER Destruction ZER! |
