Destroyers
A Night Of The Lusty Queen
[Barricade]


Woah! The cheesiest cover art ever! Once you get past the metal babe (and the one with the face of a snake with and a boob hangin' out), you'll find this isn't that bad...not the best, but not bad. Riffy like early Mercyful Fate and Destruction, with a lame thin sound like on Sodom's "Obsessed by Cruelty" LP. Vocals are deathy with melody thrown in (oh those high notes are gonna turn a few off). While all the vocals are sung in Polish, english lyrics are included inside the gatefold sleeve. This isn't total thrash, but the influence is strong. Fave songs are : "Call of Blood" and "The Kingdom Of Evil"..."Czarina's Warm Pubes" ain't bad either.
