DESTRUCTOR
Back In Bondage
(Pure Steel Records)
55:11min

I still remember those days… I knew of a kid that went to sleep outside of the record store to grab the debut album of DESTRUCTOR. They said it was heavier than SLAYER. Well, probably that was a bit too much, but there was a buzz surrounding that album, and yes, it was good, and that cover was all METAL! But, tragedy struck the band and the passing away of one of their members was a big hit. They were going to be big, I am sure. But that’s life. Still, the band was always there in the shadows, they did a very good comeback album a few years ago, and here we have their third work. And they are still DESTRUCTOR. Obviously they do sound more mature. If there ever was a doubt of what they play, they have always been a Heavy Metal band at heart doing it with a Speed / Thrash / Power Metal attitude. And they are masters at it. The riffs is what this band is all about. The great vocals, melodic yet with venom, are also a characteristic part of their sound. A great album that hopefully helps the band to get the recognition they truly deserve. www.facebook.com/destructormetal, www.puresteel-records.com
