Oggi è martedì, giorno ideale per Thrasheggiare. Oggi vi propongo un immenso capolavoro del genere, uno dei migliori cd Thrash degli ultimi anni. "The Antichrist2 di quei tedescazzi dei Destruction.
L'album inizia con "Days Of Confusion", l'intro decisamente poco originale composto solamente da un arpeggio. Ma non preoccupatevi, La distruzione comincia subito. Infatti la prima canzone, "Dictators Of Cruelty", è semplice e puro Thrash sparato a mille. L'intera canzone è composta da una sezione ritmica distruttiva, con riff violenti, veloci, di una potenza smisurata. Poi inizia a cantare quel geniaccio di Schmier (cantante e bassista) con la sua voce roca, stridula, cattiva, per averla deve sicuramente fumare 10 pacchetti di sigarette al giorno, più berci sopra 30 litri di alcolici e il gioco è fatto. Bello anche l'assolo, veloce e potente. La seconda canzone si intitola proprio "Thrash Till Death", ed è una sorta di omaggio che fa il gruppo al proprio genere musicale. La canzone inizia con un bellissimo assolo ed è sparata a mille per tutti i suoi 4 minuti. La terza canzone è uno dei capolavori assoluti dei Destruction, "Nailed To The Cross". I riff sono geniali, Schmier da il meglio di lui per essere ancora più distruttivo di prima. La canzone che segue si intitola "Bullets From Hell", in cui il chitarrista predilige i riff bassi e anche Schmier canta con una voce bassa ed oscura. Grandissimo anche il lavoro del batterista, che batte ritmi complicatissimi ad una velocità impressionante.
La quinta canzone è intitolata "Strangulated Pride", è una delle più veloci e ha un assolo fantastico. La sesta canzone si intitola "Meet Your Destiny" ed è più lenta e riflessiva delle precedenti. Bellissime come al solito le parti soliste della chitarra e le ritmiche della batteria. La settima canzone, "Creations Of The Underworld", inizia chitarra e basso che si alternano per poi unirsi e formare una canzone potentissima. In questa canzone il batterista si sbizzarrisce completamente. L'ottava canzone si intitola "Godfather Of Sandler", in cui è percepibile anche una voce modificata al computer che parla, comunque un bellissimo pezzo Thrash. Le canzoni che seguono, e che dovrebbero chiudere l'album, si intitolano "Let Your Mind Rot" e "The Heretic", sono molto simili ed iniziano tutte e due con uno stacco di batteria. In teoria ora l'album sarebbe finito ma nella versione speciale è contenuta una traccia segreta: "Curse The Gods", una delle canzoni più belle dell'album e della discografia dei Destruction.
Gente, questo è Pure Fucking Thrash Metal, senza influenze hardcore come nei nuovi album degli Slayer, senza cambiamenti di stile come nei nuovi album dei Kreator. Puro Thrash senza compromessi e mezze misure, dedicato ai veri fans del genere.

01 Days of Confusion (00:51)
In the days of confusion
mankind creates their own gods.
They fear the opposition.
They fear the truth
but only one word makes them freeze to the bone:
FEAR THE ANTICHRIST!!
03 Nailed to the Cross (03:49)
The cold wind of death
Makes you freeze to the bone
The scary final breath
Leaves only cuts in the stone
Fear the unknown spheres - of death and decay
Incite the superstition - the booty of fear
Your book of God - a book of lies
Your hero's death - brought us a 1,000 cries!
Nailed to the cross! (3x)
Nailed to the fuckin' cross!
They use fear like the press
In the book of deceit
Kneel down and confess
Weak losers need to retreat
Fear the unknown spheres - of death and decay
Incite the superstition - the booty of fear
Your book of God - a book of lies
Your hero's death - brought us a 1,000 cries!
Nailed to the cross! (3x)
Nailed to the fuckin' cross!
The sign of the cross is the sign of war
The holy symbol has been used for more
Since we remember his promotion campaign
Is collecting lost souls for a unholy aim!
Greedy bastards with blood on their hands
Hiding in churches and loosing their stand
Your book of God - a book of lies
Your hero's death - brought us a 1,000 cries!
Nailed to the cross (x7)
Nailed - failed - nailed
Nailed to the cross
Nailed - failed - nailed
Nailed to the fuckin' cross!
04 Dictators of Cruelty (04:34)
They protect our souls from war and pain
Don't fuck with them - nothin' will remain
They fight the good fight for their world peace
Save our Western Culture from unknown enemies
Military power pushed by the industries
Rain forest? Who cares about some fuckin' trees
This is for all our safety - this ain't no joke
They surely guard us - as long as they are broke
[Bridge:]</i> Land of the free - the land of decay
Amazing grace - kneel down and pray
Stars and lies - flag of pride
Ku Klux Klan at Disneyland
[Chorus:]</i> Race wars in a faked world
Hiding the truth there's no excuse
Dictators of cruelty
Dictators of cruelty
Fairytales and legends are the backbone of a land
Where controversial losers can be president
Nothin' like it seems on this Earth full of disgrace
Build your own opinion and see their ugly face!
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat chorus]
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat chorus]
Dictators of cruelty!
05 Bullets From Hell (05:09)
Hate is all I feel
Disgust is a disease no one can heal
Frustration - no big deal
This suckin' life can't be fuckin' real
Salvation of our sanity
Is what they preach to the silly humanity
But greed and ignorance
Knocks down the level of my tolerance
[Bridge:]</i> I don't give a fuck if they endorse political crime
The crap they preach is just like a bad rhyme
Don't trust the one with the smile on the face
Or you'll disappear without a trace
[Pre:]</i> I Suffer from this curse - a verdict of my hate
You won't forget this verse - you can't change our fate
II You won't forget this words - no one can tell
Deep from my heart I shoot - bullets from hell
Bullets - bullets from hell
Bullets - bullets from hell
Bullets from hell
An ambush - I'm born to scream it out
I ain't no preacher - there's no fuckin' doubt
Listen - to this desperate words
Understand - I hit where it hurts
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat pre I & II]
See - the nightmares I bring
Feel - the unholy sting
Smell - the fragrance of decay
Hear - my screams they will stay
[Repeat]
Bullets - bullets from hell <i>[x4]
06 Strangulated Pride (03:29)
A pitch dark night - smells like suicide
I hold the key - of my own death
Pounding pain - will my soul remain?
Strangulated pride - purgatory
[Bridge:]
I can hear their laughter - fabulous desaster
Running dry!
Betrayed by many names - they are playing games
Purgatory!
[Chorus:]
What the hell is going on - I go fuckin' wrong
(Strangulated pride)
Murphy's Law cuts down - everything to the ground
(Strangulated pride)
Wanna share my pain - deadly is my middle name
(Strangulated pride)
But I will surface - you will feel my wrath
I'm a disgrace - count my last days
I run out of luck - all my friends disappear
Unaccountable misery - it's getting too intense
My fate is sealed - agony's my best friend
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat chorus]
I refuse to accept - this cultured epidemic
My self-confidence - beats my worst enemies!
[Repeat bridge]
What the hell's going on - I go fuckin' wrong
(Strangulated pride)
Murphy's Law cuts down - everything to the ground
(Strangulated pride)
Strangulated pride!
07 Meet Your Destiny (04:05)
What would be if rules would be wrong?
If the words of your god are just a sad song
Maybe your friends are your worst enemies
Bad expectation spread fear like a deadly disease
What would be if dreams are the grave
Of inhuman ethics? Am I just a slave?
If eyes could talk the blind would be king
Hunger - damnation - war - suffering
[Bridge:]</i> Dungeon dreams
Scary bloody screams
Nocturnal ride
Schizophrenic suicide
[Chorus:]</i> Welcome to this nightmare
Welcome to the house of pain
Welcome to this nightmare
Welcome to the house of pain
What would be if time is too slow
To measure our standards in the death row?
Imagine intelligence would rule on this world
Manipulation would be something we've never heard
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat chorus]
Meet your destiny in the race of pain nothing will remain
Meet your destiny ?????????????????????
Meet your destiny human pigs are the worst animals
Meet your destiny only bad dreams - reality
[Repeat chorus]
09 Godfather of Slander (04:11)
Deceivers - liars without soul
Preachers - without a holy goal
Deceivers - liars without soul
Preachers - without a holy goal
Traitors - lies build up their world
Betrayers - pangs of conscience never heard
Money - can't buy a healthy life
Diseases - where do they come from?
Money - can't buy a healthy life
They're breeding our death cheating on our wives
Diseases - where do they come from?
A dreadful sect full of sadistic greed
[Bridge:]</i> Looking for revelation
Poison minds have to die
[Chorus:]</i> Godfather of slander
Why don't you fuckin' surrender
Godfather of slander
Holy Christian pretender
[Repeat]
Headless - ????????????????
Comprehend - they are victimized by their gods
Headless - obeying the masses
Comprehend - victimized by their gods
Let them rot!
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat chorus x3]
Godfather
Godfather
[Repeat chorus]
10 Let Your Mind Rot (04:17)
You lost your whole family
In this religious war
The brutal truth hits hard
Your mind is your worst enemy
You don't believe in justice
Suffering the aimless decay
Too much for one life to take
Life without sense
The logical consequence
Is to let your mind die
Inflammation of your soul
Generation of the stillborn
Prepare yourself to the slaughter
Stepping pain cuts energy
The only relief is your fuckin' dope
Shooting love in your arm gives you hope
[Bridge:]</i> In this living hell
Hallucinations will rise
Hellish existence
Bloodbath in paradise
[Chorus:]</i> Let your mind rot
A dying horizon
In a world without gods
Let your mind rot
This enemy torments you - you better get shot!
Words without meaning
Bloodletting sacrifice
Loneliness
Selecting of the lost souls
Hate destroys human nature
Clot of blood
Bloodbath in paradise
Hallucinations will rise
[Repeat bridge]
[Repeat chorus]
A living hell
???????????
Break the spell
Hell is confusion
Let your mind rot
In this living hell
Hallucinations will rise
Let your mind rot
Hellish existence
Bloodbath in paradise
[Repeat chorus]
11 The Heretic (03:44)
Black - black is the color that I adore
Dark - dark are my visions I'm in love with a whore
Reveal - reveal my reverence to no one
Call me - the ruffian the devil's son!
Cancer - I'm the cancer in your brain
Betrayer - I'm the one drives you insane
Sadistic - your depressions turn me on
Ain't diplomatic - slaughter is my regime
I'm the heretic!
[Chorus:]</i> I'm the heretic
Ain't diplomatic - you're so pathetic
And I piss on your church!
I'm the heretic
I ain't no preacher - no fuckin' teacher
The leech that sucks your life
Fear - the creeping fear in your daydreams
Deception - touch me nothing like it seems
Poison - I'm the poison running through your veins
Death - is my brother your last friend
I'm the heretic!
[Repeat chorus x2]
I'm the heretic
I'm the heretic
(The leech that sucks your life)
I'm the heretic
I'm the heretic
12 Curse the Gods (05:26)
Allah, Buddha, Jesus Christ
Whatever your god may be
Forget those idols let me tell you
They're tales of morbid brains
Everybody thinks he's right
That his gods are the only truth
Fanatic faith, fanatic deeds
Join my religion or die
Jews killed jesus, christians slaughtered jews
Millions die for their faith
Each religion prays that killing is a sin
How stupid logic can be
Curse the gods
Too many people have died
Curse the gods
That fools have died for a lie
Beware of those fools that keep telling you
God loves you, for you his son died
Fuck them: believe in yourself
Reality is gods just a lie
Curse the gods
Too many people have died
Curse the gods
That fools have died for a lie!

Di cliffburton86
I riff fanno gridare al massacro, un disco degno del nome che porta!
La voce del cantante, Schmier, sa molto di black/death metal, dedita più a sonorità 'dark' che a quelle speed-thrash.
Di sofficino
Questo disco segna il ritorno dei veri Destruction della vera distruzione!
Il monicker Destruction è sinonimo di puro thrash violento, e da headbanging.
