Tuesday, September 15th, 2009 at 1:00pm by MetalSucks

the destro - harmony of discordThe Destro fucking rule. If you read our site regularly, you should already know this. That’s why we’re very excited to be exclusively streaming “Persistence of Ignorance,” one of the heaviest tracks on their ripping, old-school-brutal-style new effort Harmony of Discord out October 13th through Ironclad / Metal Blade. Trust us, the rest of the album is more of the same: unrelenting, punishing, fuck-you-up groove after groove after groove. Check out The Destro’s MySpace page for another new track, “Justifiers of Malice.”

  1. YES IT’S TRUE, THE DESTRO DO INDEED FUCKING RULE.

    THAT AWFUL COVER HOWEVER DOES NOT RULE. IT SUCKS BALLS, AND IS ALMOST ENOUGH TO PUT ME OFF BUYING WHAT IS SURE TO BE A VERY GOOD ALBUM.

    PERHAPS SOMEONE CLOSE TO THE DESTRO COULD HAVE A WORD IN THEIR EAR AND PERSUADE THEM IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO CHANGE THE COVER ART.

    DON’T TELL ME IT’S A MATTER OF COST, A FOLDED SCRAP OF PIZZA BOX, SPRAYPAINTED BLACK WITH THE NAME WRITTEN IN CHALK WOULD BE BETTER THAN THAT MONSTROSITY.

    How can you judge a band by the cover art? or rather not buy an album based on the cover when you like the music? that’s stupid! Do you sit and stare at the cover while listening to it?
    Fuck you.

    the song does kick some ass.

    • YES ACTUALLY I DO SIT AND STARE AT THE COVER WHILE LISTENING TO IT. IF IT’S A GOOD ONE.

      I’M HARDLY ‘JUDGING A BAND BY IT’S COVER’, BEING THAT I ALREADY OWN THEIR LAST ALBUM AND ENJOY IT IMMENSELY, I JUST THINK MUSIC THIS GOOD DESERVES A BETTER PACKAGE. LIKE MY PIZZA BOX IDEA.

      WHAT’S WRONG WITH DISPLAYING AN APPRECIATION OF AESTHETICS?

      ON SECOND THOUGHTS I JUST HAD A LOOK AT YOUR ‘KINGDOM OF NOISE’… I CAN SEE AESTHETICS ISN’T REALLY YOUR FORTE.

      • Aesthetics is completely opinionated, and when it comes to music…there’s been plenty of great sounding albums that have a shitty album cover. Did you catch that word??? SOUNDING!! NOT VIEWING! If you’re normal like most of us, listen to the music for what it is, go to a fucking art gallery if you want to view something aesthetically man.

        • WELL MATHEW I SUPPOSE THAT WAS A REASONABLY BALANCED AND WELL ARTICULATED RIPOSTE, HOWEVER I AM MERELY TRYING TO STATE THAT THIS BAND DESERVES A FAR BETTER COVER.

          OF COURSE, THE ACTUAL COVER HAS NO EFFECT ON ONE’S ENJOYMENT OF THE MUSIC CONTAINED WITHIN, BUT DOES THAT MEAN WE SHOULD ACCEPT SHODDY ARTWORK REGARDLESS?

          I THINK NOT.

    • P.S. I NOTICE ON YOUR LITTLE WEBSITE YOU CLAIM TO BE AN ‘EVIL GENIUS’, BUT THERE’S NOTHING PARTICULARLY EVIL ABOUT TWITTER.

      • Ajax says:

        The internet community has no place for your kind.

        In regards to the artwork, okay, its not the greatest. Someone went through a beginners course in photoshop and did a decent job. And yes, you should ‘ACCEPT SHODDY ARTWORK’ because you have no choice to. You aren’t in the band. You aren’t the manager of it. You have no real say so in what the artwork should look like UNLESS they held a contest saying, hey fans design a cover for our next album art and if we like it we’ll use it. Death’s cover for Leprosy is kind of lame, but they are still one of the greatest death metal bands of all time. You should probably step off of your high horse. I’m sure The Desto isn’t out to just appease you and only you.

        • THE COVER OF DEATH’S ‘LEPROSY’ IS ONE OF THE GREATEST METAL ALBUM COVERS OF ALL TIME. IF ONLY THIS WAS ANYWHERE NEAR COMPARABLE TO THAT STANDARD!

          BAD EXAMPLE THERE HMM?

          DID YOU KNOW THAT IN ENGLAND, ‘AJAX’ IS THE NAME OF A TOILET CLEANING PRODUCT?

    • Eric J says:

      (shhh, don’t feed the troll.)

      This song is fucking badass. “Justifiers of Malice” is even more badass. I am definitely looking forward to this album.

  3. lmfao…Dude, I just looked up Richard Dawkins on google….
    A. You wouldnt be on this site

    B. You’re 68 years old?

    C. Crack is Wack man…and youve proven that to the general metal public

  4. Andrew says:

    This song sounds like the Acacia Strain. Way to be unoriginal, Destro.

  5. dirk says:

    ive been waiting for this shit, thanks for posting it….but its a let down from the last album, that shit shreads

  6. matt says:

    it’s okay….not surprising you guys think this band “fucking rule(s)”

  7. Clit Banger says:

    Destro is pretty good, not all that original, but still a pretty good listen. The real moral behind this story is that fuckwits that type in all CAPS are scientifically less relevant than the average human being.

    In the spirit of Google keyword searching, type “Richard Dawkins is” into Google. Some highlights:

    - Richard Dawkins is an idiot
    - Richard Dawkins is a douche
    - Richard Dawkins is going to hell
    - Richard Dawkins is the devil
    - Richard Dawkins is a fool

    So, there ya go, DIck Dawkins can go eat a festering, mouldy, steaming pile of dog shit.

  8. DidgeryDo says:

    Hey Richard Dawkins. Kanye West blogs in caps. Now if you have any decency your head will explode realizing you bear any similarity to the greatest douche of 2009 and beyond.

  9. DidgeryDo says:

    Now onto Destro. I thought the song was OK. If it is far from their best they could be worth checking out. Is it just me or does the lead singer sound almost identical to the lead of Mudvayne.

  10. jason says:

    Prof Dawkins is probably my favorite troll/poster on this site. He has decimated Ziltoid on many occasions, and for that alone, he has my support. Plus, This cover is pretty weak and I think the pizza box idea is genius.

  11. Sandwiches says:

    Ha ha best fucking comments ever! I’m gonna go order that book now 1000000 to Richard dawkins

  12. tallica_fan86 says:

    sounds like gojira

  13. RJMrgn says:

    I agree with Prof. Dawkins in that:

    • Destro are pretty awesome.

    • That sleeve art sucks mad bottom.

    • It is a logical fallacy to claim that inability to disprove the existence of something is sufficient grounds for belief in it.

    • WELL I’M GLAD AT LEAST SOME OF US HERE ARE ON THE SAME WAVE-LENGTH.

      BY THE WAY THIS BAND OF YOURS SOUNDS RATHER GOOD IF I MAY SAY SO, PERHAPS YOU COULD COME AND OPEN FOR ME AT MY NEXT BIG LECTURE IN OXFORD -I PROMISE THERE WILL BE A LOT OF OPEN-MINDED INTELLECTUAL BABES THERE AND PLENTY OF GIN.

    I had no idea this site could be so easy to troll.
