Background information über 'Infernal Overkill'

Destruction's debut album "Infernal Overkill" stands as one of the most ferocious and influential thrash metal releases of the mid-80s. Originally unleashed in 1985, this German thrash masterpiece helped define the sound that would inspire countless bands in the years to come. The album captures the raw energy and technical prowess that made Destruction pioneers of the European thrash scene, with tracks that showcase blistering guitar work, pummeling drums, and Schmier's distinctive snarling vocals that became a trademark of the band's sound.

This 2023 reissue has been carefully mastered for vinyl by Patrick W. Engel at Temple of Disharmony, preserving the original 1985 sound while enhancing it for the vinyl format. The album's relentless pace and aggressive songwriting shine through classics like "Bestial Invasion" and the title track "Infernal Overkill", demonstrating why Destruction became one of the "Big Four" of Teutonic thrash metal alongside Kreator, Sodom, and Tankard. The production maintains that authentic 80s thrash aesthetic while delivering the punch that modern listeners expect from a premium vinyl pressing.

For fans of: Kreator, Sodom, Tankard, Exodus and Dark Angel
