      D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N. Review

      Now I have to admit I never expected this from Destruction. But how the fuck did this get so awesome, hell, my awesomeness meter broke when trying to register the awesomeness after it blew up going past 10, and I don’t blame it. This was very good and is like classic thrash metal, better than Ride the Lightning and Rust in Peace put together, which believe me were very good albums, but this kicks the living shit out of those two and even makes Pleasure to Kill look bad. I´ll even admit I was never much of a Destruction fan, but after this, I should have reconsidered ages ago because they surely showed some very good musicianship here. But enough of this, let’s get down to business.

      I´d like to start with two words, holy shit, I literally was frozen in amazement listening to this, it was heavy, brutal, had harsh vocals, had somewhat audible bass lines, great drum rolls, awesome intros, profane, and of course metal. Though, the best of all the parts I thought was the guitar parts. Being very heavy and sometimes fast. I don’t know if the guitars were down tuned like five or more steps down but either way, they got the low-pitch sound which creates your "heavy" and "brutal" sound. They also soloed well beyond my expectations and really surprised me. The riffs were excellent and had just the thrash metal sound they needed. Switching over to bass lines, while a bass solo may have been nice, it was not a heartbreaker and I think I was too busy enjoying the guitar parts to even notice that there were literally no bass solos, but not a big breaker and the album is still sick as hell. Drumming I actually enjoyed more than I usually do, the drum rolls helped add the "heavy" element, and even though there were really no drum solos, that doesn´t hurt the album at all, but either way, I´m sure their drummer lost about 10 pounds after doing those really fast and enjoyable drum rolls, and whoever he is, he´s like a clone of Behemoth´s excellent drummer, Inferno. As far as vocals, while not the best part, they were harsh, now how were they harsh? Simple, stay one step under screaming, and act like your yelling at someone who is pissing you the hell off. They also suited the music that was being played perfectly, I like how random some of the lyrics were, while satisfying my ears can give me a good laugh, not to mention I lost count how many f-bombs Marcel dropped. Overall, all the parts were at 110%.

      Now, the best songs were from my point of view: Inner Indulgence, Elevator to Hell, Offenders of the Throne, and Devolution. All of these songs were very fucking heavy and are some of Destruction´s most underrated songs. However, something that most albums didn´t hand to me, I enjoyed every song on the album a whole bunch, in fact, I think I played the album over like 4 times.

      Now while I will admit this is probably something not too many people would like, but if you like the older Destruction, then well, I would guess you´d like this too, but as for me, I´m heading to the music store right now.
