The support for 12.

Confused Mind cooperation of Nuclear Blast, this story will be accessible for all DESTRUCTION fans. 02. Black Mass 03. Frontbeast Fans had an influence on the selection of the track list and thus ensured that »Thrash Anthems II« mostly consists of classic Side B DESTRUCTION hits from the 80s.

Working tirelessly from January through until March, the album was pro- 02. United By Hatred 03. The Ritual duced by V.O. Pulver…and the result is awesome! The newly recorded songs haven’t lost any of their original rough edges, Side C despite the new powerful sound. From “Black mass” to »Sentence Of Death« to “The Ritual” and “Antichrist”, the songs sound 01. Black Death uncompromisingly hard, yet still present themselves as timeless classics from a legendary band. The fitting cover artwork was 02. Antichrist 03. Confound Games created by artist Gyula. Side D The history of DESTRUCTION, established in 1982, is both rich and bountiful. Being part of the ‘Teutonic Big Four’ alongside 01. Rippin’ You Off Blind 02.
