Review Type: 

Short and sweet: thirty years of business, and still one of the most impressing Thrash-acts. Energy, power, joy, persuasion, craftsmanship, professionalism, it’s just a brief selection of possible adjectives to add onto Destruction’s huge biography / history.

Nothing renewing, no need to renew (at all) for this band is one of the protagonists within this specific scene: Thrash with balls. Schmier and his crew did create another mega-Thrash-anthem with Spiritual Genocide, a comeback that shows a union of musicians that are experienced and, even of bigger importance, enjoying to spread the word of Ultra-Thrashness upon Mater terra.

Spiritual Genocide, groovier, more up-tempo and much more mature than ever before, IS A MUST for all old and new fans!

And I’m sure, for ‘true’ thrashers, possibly one of the albums of the year?...!

Oh yes, with guest vocals by Tom Angelripper (Sodom) and Gerre (Tankard)…
