Thrash metal legends Destruction – release second single ”A.N.G.S.T” + ”Birth Of Malice” album coming in March

German Thrash-Teutons DESTRUCTION strike again with their second single, “A.N.G.S.T.”.  As one of the biggest names in thrash metal with a 40+ year career, they unleash raw paranoia, shredding guitar solos and Schmier’s intense vocals while criticizing evil forces who prey on the weaknesses of others. Tackling fear, the song urges fans to confront their inner demons and break free from mental chains. Taken from their 16th studio album, Birth Of Malice, out March 7, 2025 via Napalm Records, “A.N.G.S.T.” proves fear is no match for thrash! The single is accompanied by an incredible music video that honors the horror genre and its iconic special FX – images taken from your deepest nightmares creeping in your head to stay.

Schmier on “A.N.G.S.T.”:
“Our very first German song title is one of two very different tracks on this new album. I wanted to write a groovin’ live track with staccato riffs, evil bloodcurdling vocals and dark atmosphere.”

Schmier adds about the elaborate music video:
“We wanted to create a music video like a horror movie that plays with our natural fears, and to create a scary vibe that gives you the chills. It will make you press REPEAT and think, ‘What was that? Let’s watch this freak show again!’ We hope you’re entertained!”
