German Thrash-Teutons, Destruction, have announced the world premier of their documentary, The Art Of Destruction. The band issued the following message via social media:
“On March 6th, one day before our new album Birth Of Malice will drop, our movie will have its premiere screening at CineStar cinema at Alexanderplatz Berlin/Germany! The red-carpet event will include Q&R with the film makers Ili Jelusic & Denise Dörner and the band, followed by an autograph session after the movie.
“Get your tickets now, only limited capacity available: cinestar.de.
“More screenings to be announced soon!!! Stay tuned!!!”
A previous message from the band reveals: “This highly anticipated movie portrays some of the most challenging years of our history. It all starts with a big dream, but soon turns into a wild ride across the globe – from Germany to Mexico and back! The film crew worked on this documentary with us for nearly five years, bringing you up close and personal with Schmier and the band. The Art Of Destruction is an inspirational story about perseverance, a lifelong dream, and the magic of music.”
Destruction will release their 16th studio album, Birth Of Malice, on March 7 via Napalm Records.
Fans all over the world worship Destruction alongside fellow German thrash icons Sodom and Kreator, celebrating their influence on generations of bands worldwide. On Birth Of Malice, scene-legend and original member Schmier once again combines his dual vocal/bass attack with crashing riffs from battle axe masters Martin Furia and Damir Eskić, while Randy Black blasts pummeling drums to new heights. As witnessed on their previous thrash-fest Diabolical (2022), Destruction return with their uniquely raw and brutal sound, delivering merciless songs with a touch more variety and groove this time. All twelve songs from the butchers hit with a direct, clean sound – resulting in addictive metal anthems for a new generation of thrashers!
Destruction’s newest onslaught is opened by the brutal “Destruction”, with a luring intro transforming into a true thrashing hymn with razor sharp guitars honoring the band’s 40+ year legacy, where mastermind Schmier reflects on the old days. Like the title Birth Of Malice suggests, lyrically, Schmier delves deep in human errors – like selfish behavior on “Greed” and “Evil Never Sleeps”, while stomping “A.N.G.S.T.” delivers shredding guitar solos and flirts with our paranoid instinct, criticizing evil forces who prey on the weaknesses of others. A clear statement is made with carnage on “Scumbag Human Race”, exploring the mistakes mankind makes and pushing authorities in its memorable chorus “I will count your days.”. The same rebellious attitude can be witnessed on the banging “No Kings – No Masters”. Destruction also shift to futuristic topics on the album, like the unconscious influence of technology and new forms of war on “Cyber Warfare”. To close this brutal tour de force on a positive note, the thrashing legends celebrate their strong allyship with metal colleagues Accept by presenting their own version of classic neck breaker “Fast As A Shark”.
All of these heavy topics are combined in the brutal cover artwork, designed by talented Hungarian artist Gyula Havancsák, known for his works for bands like Accept, Kreator and Blind Guardian. Birth Of Malice was recorded at Switzerland’s Little Creek Studio by V.O.Pulver, and guitarist Martin Furia mixed and mastered the masterpiece at The Black Mancave in Hannover, Germany. Destruction mark themselves once again as a tight metal-machine, switching between ruthless thrash and pounding melodic moments, proving they are more than ready to slaughter again on this new album, and at their upcoming shows all over the world.
