DESTRUCTION: NEW STUDIOALBUM „D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.“ WILL BE RELEASED ON AUGUST, 29, 2008!!!
25 years of DESTRUCTION. That means 25 years of classic German thrash metal. 25 years of intelligent lyrics beyond all clichés. 25 years on the road playing for enthusiastic audiences all around the globe. 25 years in the premier division of extreme music. This anniversary calls for a very special present, which DESTRUCTION deliver to their fans and to themselves in the shape of their tenth studio album: “D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.”
“D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.” offers all those characteristic trademarks that have made DESTRUCTION so popular in the Metal scene for a quarter of a century. Listen to the razor sharp guitar-riffing often speeding ahead, but capable of reducing its velocity and allowing for crunchy or emotional passages at exactly the perfect moments for a break. Despite their blasting energy these Germans have always had a special talent for strong melodies and creating thrashing anthems that are embedding themselves in the musical memory. "With our anniversary coming up we wanted to have our very best elements from all those years gathered on this album", confirms singer Schmier. At the same time it would be very strange for DESTRUCTION to just revel in simple nostalgia.
Indeed “D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.” comes with a fresh new sound that pushes the band forward to unknown limits and firmly sets them into the new millennium of hard music. Whoever thought these Germans to be stuck in a conservative role as one of the leading figures among the three classics of Teutonic thrash together with their fellows from Sodom and Kreator has to see DESTRUCTION in a new light now: “D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.” appears more massive, hard-hitting and grinding than all of their renowned previous works without betraying their roots for just one second.
Besides the standart CD, there will be a limited DigiPak with an extensive bonus multimedia part, a gatefold vinyl and a special fan package available.
The DESTRUCTION special fan package will include:
· Limited Digi Pak CD „D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.“
