Everything from the playing to the production would improve vastly, and the mix of thrash riffs, grim vocals and blackened lyrics would influence generations of both thrash and black metal bands to come. The members were still teens at the time, and their transformation from that first effort to their full-length debut, Infernal Overkill, would be profound. It was poorly recorded and sloppily played, but in the spirit of Venom, the band established itself as whirlwind force of evil and unchecked speed. The German contingent, remarkably, didn’t even know of each other until they had already recorded their respective demos, but they’d gotten a glimpse of some of the Bay Area bands through their first releases and tape-trading.ĭestruction, the trio of bassist/vocalist Marcel “Schmier” Schirmer, guitarist Mike Sifringer and drummer Thomas “Tommy” Sandmann, hailing from a country village in southwestern Germany, arrived like a blitzkrieg with their vicious Sentence of Death EP in 1984. There’s also no doubt that the California contingent-Metallica, Slayer, Exodus and Megadeth-also influenced each other in this pursuit, whether consciously or unconsciously. Right out of the gates the album starts off with Invincible Force which is a straight up head banger that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Add some balls to your walls with our badass flags 100 Polyester Water. These seminal efforts were made by young musicians who were simply taking the most badass aspects of the NWOBHM-say, the speed of Raven and Jaguar and the evil of Venom-and amping it way up. Infernal Overkill has that same aggression and speed that the other teutonic four has but with more of a focus on melody. DESTRUCTION Infernal Overkill Textile Poster. There were no bands purposely trying to play thrash metal. Well, the music existed, obviously, but it wasn’t called thrash metal.

It should be noted that there was, in fact, no such thing as thrash metal at this time. Destruction, Sodom and Kreator (or Tormentor, as they were originally called) drew from the same influences as their American counterparts-largely the NWOBHM and, in particular, Venom-though they did so with a uniquely Euro perspective and approach. 'Invincible Force' and 'Bestial Devastation' are both excellent and there are other moments, but Destruction would manage better albums. However, across the Atlantic in Germany, a trio of bands that were practically contemporaries of the Big Four (or Five) offer a pure glimpse of the origins of this style. Infernal Overkill, the much loved debut album by German thrash metal legend Destruction was first released in 1985. Infernal Overkill is a decent album and an interesting mid-point between frantic German thrash and more traditional metal styles, though doesn't quite have enough ideas and variation to make itself stand out. And since Exodus’ Paul Baloff, Metallica’s Cliff Burton, Megadeth’s Gar Samuelson and now Slayer’s Jeff Hanneman are no longer with us, the opportunity to examine the genre’s origins are getting fewer and fewer. Though we have inducted numerous landmark thrash metal albums in the Decibel Hall of Fame over the years, very few of the earliest examples of the style have made it in there. 113 Infernal Overkill Label: Steamhammer/Metal Blade Release date: -–
