My Favorite Albums Part 422 [Hardcore Punk Edition]

This is a CD that combines the 1995 final album by Minneapolis-based raging fast crust thrashers "DESTROY," led by Felix Von Havoc, with tracks from their EPs, splits, and compilations.

As the final work by DESTROY, it captures the strength and energy of the early 90s DIY hardcore scene that was exploding at the time.

Formed in 1989, DESTROY was part of a global movement shifting from 1980s hardcore punk toward faster and more extreme music. With roots in the anarcho-punk scene, they established a heavy and powerful hardcore sound that fused elements of fastcore, crust, and grindcore, while forcefully delivering political messages.

Recommended for those who like crust, grind, and fastcore.

If words like hardcore in general, metal in general, intense sound, extreme, maniac, super heavy, noisy, or indie ring a bell, please take a look at my previous posts as well. (Though some may not fit those descriptions.)
