It has been a while since this Australian Black / Death Metal outfit put out anything for us to digest, but after a few spins of their mighty new release Phoenix Rising," the wait has been worth it. Layered thick with a real raw power and drive, the polished (though not over done) sound of the band jumps right out at you with intensity and finesse. Not much has changed for the band, other than some band members here and there, and it is quite apparent that the band is even more focused this time out. Strengthening up their new disc with strong numbers like "The Last Revelation," "The Eternal Glory of War" and the solid title track, Destroyer666 are once again ready to go to war for metal. It is now up to you to decide which side you'll be on as the war commences. In the name of metal, Hail Destroyer 666!" -Adrian Bromley, Unrestrained Mag ((httpp://www.unrestrainedmag.com/)
