Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Speedy, aggressive thrash they are well known for
Thrash masters Destruction put the metal world "Under Attack" and bombard us with the speedy, aggressive thrash that the band is well known for. Melodic, destructive and sometimes slightly slower as with the intro to "Getting Used to the Evil", this album is what fans of the band have to come to love and expect from these Teutonic thrash titans. Galloping riffs abound throughout, the production is fantastic, and this album rolls over you like someone trying to get the last hot roll at an all you can eat buffet! Definitely give this one a spin.
