Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Eternal Devastation' captures Destruction sharpening their aggressive blackened thrash into a highly technical, incredibly fast, and tightly executed heavy metal assault. The album is defined by Schmier's vicious, anti-religious shrieks and Mike Sifringer's distinctively raw, dissonant guitar riffing. It stands as an apocalyptic, fiercely energetic pillar of the foundational Teutonic thrash metal trinity.
