Destruction: Infernal Overkill CLR version on vinyl LP in colored edition. This particular edition was published in Germany in publishing company Steamhammer on 12. March 2021.

With "Infernal Overkill", Teutonic thrash legends Destruction launched their first real LP in 1985. On their debut album, the Baden-Württembergers refined their style, swapping most of the heavy metal influences from their previous EP "Sentence of Death" for more speed, more heaviness and more bite - a consistent step in the evolution of a band that would one day become one of Germany's most famous metal exports. For the recording of "Infernal Overkill", Destruction returned to a still divided Berlin and once again worked with Horst Müller of Caet studios to bring this future classic to light. "Infernal Overkill" is rightly regarded as one of the most important works of the early days of Teutonic thrash. To this day, the album is still highly regarded in the professional world, especially for its mastery of the difficult balance between "catchiness" and innovation, for which the fast, heavy, aggressive riffing is mainly responsible. Moreover, the album is an authentic representation of the mid-1980s, a time that was as vibrant and eventful as it was exciting. "Infernal Overkill", with its brilliant riffs, the popular "Bestial Invasion" and many other tracks that remain a staple of any live set, was a turning point for Destruction. The album's release was followed by a tour with Slayer themselves that completely turned the young band's life upside down. In addition, the album "Infernal Overkill" featured the first appearance of the traditional Destruction logo and the infamous skull - two symbols that are still familiar around the world 32 years later. The fan-favourite debut album is still one of Destruction's most successful albums ever. HRR's version of "Infernal Overkill," masterfully remastered by Patrick W. Engel (Temple of Disharmony), brings back the original sound from 1985.

Album spans genres Rock, Thrash Metal and Speed Metal. Coloured Fire Splatter Vinyl.
