DESTRUCTION Release Live Album ‘Born To Thrash – Live In Germany’
May 8th, 2020

German thrash metal band Destruction issued live album Born To Thrash – Live In Germany digitally on May 8th, 2020 through Nuclear Blast Records. The album was also made available in digipak CD and various vinyl formats on July 17th, 2020.

Born To Thrash – Live In Germany was recorded live on August 10th at the Party.San Metal Open Air festival August 10th, 2019 in Flugplatz Obermehler, Schlotheim, Germany.

Frontman Marcel “Schmier” Schirmer commented: “This live album is the most spontaneous thing we ever did I think! This is the music business, everything usually takes time and the label does not like surprises. But a good friend of ours spontaneously recorded that Party.San show and we had a film team there that weekend cause we were shooting a movie.

“It was a fantastic show and since the Covid-19 has halted all live concerts, we decided to release this for the fans. This also introduces the current fantastic new line-up that not all of our fans have seen live yet cause of the actual situation! We will release three official videos in total during the promo of Born To Thrash – Live In Germany! The film crew wasn’t there to record all of the set but our movie will show the scenery behind the stage and the way we try to achieve our goals! So luckily they caught at least some of the stage magic that night! It feels so awesome that we can share this!”

The track listing is as follows:

01. ‘Curse The Gods’
02. ‘Nailed To The Cross’
03. ‘Born To Perish’
04. ‘Mad Butcher’
05. ‘Life Without Sense’
06. ‘Betrayal’
07. ‘Total Desaster’
08. ‘The Butcher Strikes Back’
09. ‘Thrash Till Death’
10. ‘Bestial Invasion’
