DESTRUCTION To Sign With AFM RECORDS

January 13, 2005

German thrashers DESTRUCTION are on the verge of signing a new record deal with the AFM label. A posting on the group's web site reads as follows:

"After four terrific and successful years with Nuclear Blast, the decision to work with a new label wasn't easy at all"

"We would like to thank Markus Staiger and his team for the great friendship and the fantastic work! They had a big participation of the positive progress of our reunion!

"AFM Records is the new partner of our trust! The contracts will get signed within the next days! The new album will be released via AFM/Soulfood here in Central Europe and thru other distribution partners of the label worldwide a little later this summer!

"The pre-production is running at full blast. Because of the intense worldwide touring, it feels that the band never sounded tighter and more motivated than at this present moment!

"Watch out for the new riff-monster that will write thrash metal history! And that's a fuckin' promise!"

DESTRUCTION's most recent album, "Metal Discharge", was released in September 2003 through Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2001's "The Antichrist" was the first DESTRUCTION album to feature drummer Marc Reign, who replaced Sven Vormann in 2001.
