More about 'Kill All Idols'

Germany's extreme metal veterans Desaster return with their most diverse offering yet in "Kill All Idols", a programmatically titled assault that showcases three decades of refined brutality. Since 1989, this unholy quartet has been perfecting their unique blend of black, death, and thrash metal, and this latest chapter proves they're far from running out of steam. While their previous effort "Churches Without Saints" delivered the classic Desaster formula fans have come to worship, "Kill All Idols" ventures into more adventurous territory without sacrificing an ounce of their signature ferocity.

What makes this album particularly thrilling is how Desaster seamlessly weaves their punk roots into the fabric of their established sound. The epic passages that have become their trademark are still present and accounted for, but now they're complemented by rawer, more immediate moments that recall the band's earliest influences. Tracks like "Great Repulsive Force" and "Kill the Idol" demonstrate this evolution perfectly, balancing crushing heaviness with an underlying punk urgency that feels both fresh and familiar. The album's journey from the opening "Emanation of the Profane" through to the haunting outro "Idols' End" showcases a band that's not afraid to challenge both themselves and their listeners.

Sodom, Kreator, Bathory, Venom, Celtic Frost, and Aura Noir
