Schmier just might be the best and most unique thrash vocalist in my opinion. He doesn't 'go through the motions' when singing live, rather just completey embodies all of these classics with every ounce of passion for it. This sounds so good and with all of the old members too!
He's one of the few singers like Blitz from Overkill to still keep his voice intact while screaming harshly, I think his break from Destruction helped massively with that too.
I first heard .destruction when I, was/18 yearsl old that Was.in.the early 80,s that was when I first started listening to thrash metal and that,s when I became a true thrasher long hair and all..
Os caras são sobreviventes e mandam bem desde o final dos 80's, quando adquiri Total Disaster(puta álbum) e Mad Butcher. Hoje, com a possibilidade de postar vídeos com boa qualidade no TH-cam várias bandas estão sendo redescobertas pela molecada mais nova. Destruction é uma delas. Talvez seja a primeira banda alemã a fazer um relativo sucesso aqui na América do Sul. Antes que falem do Accept - outra banda muito foda e que na época de Total Disaster, já tinha em seu currículo sucessos como Princess of Down, Fast as a Shark e Balls to the Wall - e também já era uma banda(alemã) consolidada no mundo do rock, o Destruction, em minha opinião levou vantagem junto, principalmente, ao público brasileiro, por ter, naquela época, vindo muito ao Brasil. Lembro que um dos primeiros shows dos caras aqui fora em 1989 e, se não me engano, foi trazido por uma loja da "Galeria do Rock" em São Paulo. Agora, não me perguntem qual foi a loja porque a quantidade de Heinekeim alojada no meu cérebro simplesmente me impede de lembrar destes detalhes. De qualquer maneira, fica o registro.
You were a little earlier than I was. I checked these guys out in late August of 2014. Never looked back since. Destruction are most definitely the German thrash masters.
THIS CRAZY GERMAN BAND & THERE FANS GET IT DONE THE THRASH METAL WAY.THIS IS HOW YOU PLAY MUSIC LIVE IN CONCERT.ONE OF THE BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES EVER.AMAZING SOUND QUALITY AND CAMERA WORK.WISH I LIVED IN GERMANY.THIS IS EPIC AWESOMENESS.
I can't believe how perfect band is Destruction in live concerts. This is purest masterpiece. I love Sodom, Kreator, Exodus, Slayer and many more thrash bands but non of them can compare to DESTRUCTION live. Really. DESTRUCTION owns all bands

I wish I found their music a long time ago! I have to see them live! None of the mainstream american metal bands ever touched of how heavy destruction is.
Wow, incredible setlist. The three best songs off of Eternal Devastation, two underrated gems from Sentence of Death, and pretty much the whole a-side of The Antichrist. Add Dictators of Cruelty and this is a damn near-perfect setlist.
agreed great one. personally it's missing my favorite song, Black Mass, but it's still a great selection. More times than not, setlists let me down. Would've been cool as hell if they'd thrown on The Damned plasmatics cover as an encore
I saw Destruction back in the 1980s in Milwaukee Wisconsin USA at a small venue during the Release from Agony tour. I was right up against the stage. They had just released their live album, and the show was pretty much the same. They were so good I could not even believe it. To this day after hundreds of metal shows, Destruction is simply one of the best if not the best thrash band in the world. I wish they would come to the United States more often. I dearly miss them.
Is there any song that they DO NOT play fucki** fast and absolutely awesome like these? what an ear orgasm concert!! Hail from Sao Paulo Brazil to Destruction!! \m/
How the hell can 3 peopel made that big sound they have. This kick ass👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 This survive evry stupid trend, that will always be peopel that wanna hear real music with real talent 👍🤘🤘🤘
See you there man, Im the guy in the black leather jacket with the long white beard and metal shag. Hit me up, we will have a beer man with me and my crew.
Here's the setlist: 1. Intro 2. The Butcher Strikes Back 3. Curse the Gods 4. Nailed to the Cross 5. Mad Butcher 6. Alliance of Hellhoundz 7. Soul Collector 8. Deathtrap / Unconscious Ruins 9.

@TheimosZone Yea, but I remember these guys when I was a kid, and they have always been on the edge of making it and going under. Since they've survived I felt the need to give some pointers (because they still are on that edge- just because they're still together doesn't mean "they've made it"- if they're living from check to check like the rest of the "barely surviving world", they could use the constructive criticism)...
Pfff!!!.... this DVD concert and "LIVE DISCARGE" are fucking awesome!!!! greetings from México city, Destruction has been here and all concerts has devastated!!! hell yyeeaahhh to Mad Butchers!!! (Este DVD Y el Live DISCHARGE son chingonamente impresionantes, saludos desde la ciudad de México, Destruction ha estado aqui y todos sus conciertos han devastado, a huevo para los carniceros locos!!!)
Great gig, destruction is the thrash band that i like the most. But they have such great songs to perform that could replace some songs like "nailed to the cross", like tormentor among others. Anyway great show. I actually bought this dvd. Anyway, greetings from Cordoba, Argentina
these 3 beasts are the genius musical,Admirable guys despite their situation at the time of the Berlin Wall managed to leave their country to play overseas and I saw destruction in 1985 in Montreal, sublime show.
@MOTOFIENDXXX Yeah, but they´re not trying to go big, because they already are! They`re just looking forward to giving a good appealing show and i think they acomplished it!
Gonna see them in august 2013 at the SUMMERBREEZE Festival, nearly can't wait. So I watch live performances. But I know them since their founding. I'm 60 and still on METAL....until I DIE!
Kreator+Destruction+Tankard+Sodom = the four horsemen of the Apocalypse.
Man Destruction is awsome, i would love to see a German big 4 concert.
Kreator, Sodom, Destruction and Tankard.
hell yeah!!!!
I went to kreator and sodom already in Colombia
Daniel Ayala
That's Two out of the four. Good on ya
No No No..Real Thrash Metal Big 4 : Slayer, Kreator, Sodom, Destruction
This will happend in mexico metal fest 🔥
That drummer. So cool and calm yet fucking it up!!!!!
Schmier just might be the best and most unique thrash vocalist in my opinion. He doesn't 'go through the motions' when singing live, rather just completey embodies all of these classics with every ounce of passion for it. This sounds so good and with all of the old members too!

Don`t know how I missed these guys in the 80s and 90s but I`m listening now . HORNS UP !
I first heard .destruction when I, was/18 yearsl old that
Was.in.the early 80,s that was when I first started listening to thrash metal and that,s when I became a true thrasher long hair and all..
I used to.listen to metallica Sodom destruction venom slayer exodus. Merciful fate corrosion of conformity.m.d.c.anthrax suicidal tendencies
me too
WTF?! Seriously the best Concert, I've ever seen. Better than any of my favorites bands I've seen from the front row.
Probably the most epic live in all the Wacken editions!
+Odin Warknowledge agree
Yeah dude. But Live of depravaty by Sodom was epic too
Yeah dude. But the Live of depravity by Sodom was epic too.
Check out Kreator in 2005!
Exodus was very sick
This is fucking godly, one of my favorite live performances EVER!
Great Band masse pure thrash till death forever 🍺🌟⭐🌃🌆🌍👊👈👉😎👏👍🙌👌☠️🔥💀👁️🤘🎸🥁🎤🇧🇷😷😵🎶🎵😈👹🤩🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I love how angelripper comes out of nowhere during alliance of hellhoundz, drunk as shit, and doesnt even bother with singing.

such a tight,tight,tight sound, what a band!
and the video cutting and editing so fitting, with the slow-mo's
This has to be one of the greatest performances ever. Unbelieavable.
I'm ashamed to admit this is the first time I have heard them. fucking awesome.
You were a little earlier than I was. I checked these guys out in late August of 2014. Never looked back since. Destruction are most definitely the German thrash masters.
These guys are giants of thrash ...
+petegruszek certainly \m/
THIS CRAZY GERMAN BAND & THERE FANS GET IT DONE THE THRASH METAL WAY.THIS IS HOW YOU PLAY MUSIC LIVE IN CONCERT.ONE OF THE BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES EVER.AMAZING SOUND QUALITY AND CAMERA WORK.WISH I LIVED IN GERMANY.THIS IS EPIC AWESOMENESS.
DIE 80ER SIND EINER DER BESTEN ZEITEN FÜR Metal Fans Sehr gute Bands kommen aus Deutschland
Destruction is not a band. Destruction is an avalanche!!!
xD
Mike is a badass at guitar
THIS BAND PERIOD, IS BAD ASS
+Paul Davis word!
MrTR909 thx
The drummer is insane!!
best live band ever!
That live mix sounds excellent, one of the best I've heard.
fucking love how Schmier has such a relaxed facial expression while screaming those sick as, filthy lyrics
Oh Yeah!! that drummer is bad bad bad as hell!
I can't believe how perfect band is Destruction in live concerts. This is purest masterpiece. I love Sodom, Kreator, Exodus, Slayer and many more thrash bands but non of them can compare to DESTRUCTION live. Really. DESTRUCTION owns all bands
one of the best live band ever

2007! Best Wacken year!
just want to say a big thanks to the guy who upload this
what a perfect audio quality!! THRASH TILL DEATH!!!
Mad butcher still one of the best if not the best trash songs of all time!!!!!!!
There are many bands that have more than 5 members and do not do even half of the sound that these three guys do FACT
I wish I found their music a long time ago! I have to see them live!
None of the mainstream american metal bands ever touched of how heavy destruction is.
You'll like Sodom!
ThePimV Just came from Sodom video. German thrash/bay area is the best.
Pedigree Butchery Exodus, Sodom, Kreator, Slayer \m/
ThePimV very true
***** Testament, Overkill, Dark Angel and Heathen are also great, dude.
Jeff hanneman on drums xD
I remember this evening so incredible
DESTRUCTION > Slayer in technical skill
just to end all of the trolling
tnx for upload \m/
Wow, incredible setlist. The three best songs off of Eternal Devastation, two underrated gems from Sentence of Death, and pretty much the whole a-side of The Antichrist. Add Dictators of Cruelty and this is a damn near-perfect setlist.

I guess i found out how I'll spend my next hour!!!!! :D
There's no doubt their old stuff is best...unbeatable!
Excellent, they don't mess around with the frilly stuff. Shred them all!
sweet stuff.. never listened to them before
My favorite Deutsch Thrash metal band, fucking great. Greetings from México.
I saw Destruction back in the 1980s in Milwaukee Wisconsin USA at a small venue during the Release from Agony tour. I was right up against the stage. They had just released their live album, and the show was pretty much the same. They were so good I could not even believe it.

I fucking love this concert
this is fuckin bad ass
theres no thrash band that can compete with the "D"
Aqui não há lugar para melodias, solos trabalhados, refrões grudentos, sorrisos pra plateias, só velocidade, raiva, técnica....
Great gig, destruction is the thrash band that i like the most. But they have such great songs to perform that could replace some songs like "nailed to the cross", like tormentor among others. Anyway great show. I actually bought this dvd.
Anyway, greetings from Cordoba, Argentina
Awesome performance...Destruction rules!!!!
Destruction not playing nailed to the cross is like slayer not playing angel of death. It just dosent happen. Its one of their beat songs
the best wacken presentation ever hail destruction a true thrash metal band
Schmier still fucking has it in him!! /,,/ best destruction performance
Demonz,Many thanks for the fantastic concert. Total Destruction.
3 piece band, incredible sound, killer riffs, unique vocalist, and 68 dip wads who couldn't blow up a paper bag give a thumbs down :/
I thank you for being there in my youth.
Destruction tonight in Vancouver city.... fuuuuckk yeah!!!!!!
these 3 beasts are the genius musical,Admirable guys despite their situation at the time of the Berlin Wall managed to leave their country to play overseas and I saw destruction in 1985 in Montreal, sublime show.
2019 on Brutal Assault. \m/ I m really happy to see Destruction for my first time there!!!!!!!
great show Great Band
fuckin love that heaviness
@MOTOFIENDXXX Yeah, but they´re not trying to go big, because they already are! They`re just looking forward to giving a good appealing show and i think they acomplished it!
