Well, like all musicians we would say we have a unique sound but the best description we've had would be 'like Soulfly if Trent Reznor were part of the band'.
But there's so much stuff going on with distorted dance loops, piano, cello and samples that the sound can be pretty eclectic at times.
Many bands now-a-days are writing music to express strong feelings of emotion and to put across a message, but many seem to miss the point, trying too hard to change the lives of everyone that listens to them, forgetting the most important thing: The Music.
One band that has thankfully strayed far from this unfortunate trend is industrial metal band soul destruction.
Their use of sample rhythms and beats give rise to an industrial, almost dance-like feel that share the same airspace as unrefined, ripping guitar riffs that are augmented with distressingly demanding vocals that would tear throats. But that's not it all, because there is also a wrapper of gothic atmosphere that engulfs the whole sound, one which manages to successfully bring these diverging elements together as one, truly unique sound.
soul destruction quickly set about recording the 'descend the trend' promo which received rave reviews in the national press, fanzines and on internet sites, drawing comparisons to Nine Inch Nails, Fear Factory, Static-X and Marilyn Manson.
The band are just finishing their debut album which really has been a labour of love. More details to follow soon.

We’re playing at Electrowerkz in Angel on Sat 21st June at 8.30pm. It’s our first time playing there and could really use your help to play there again. Tickets are only £6 (less than the cost of 2 Magners!) which gives you 3 bands + free entry to the club night after…and it’s my birthday that night too…so all the more reason to come!
Please click on the link below for a flyer or let us know if you’ll be coming and we’ll leave tickets at the door for you.
Forgot to mention that we’re also planning on giving more CD’s away too!
Hey - excellent gig last night guys!!! Your set was excellent. It was an honor sharing the stage with you nutters. Let us know if you wanna do it again. xxx
Hey, Thanks for the add (sorry it took me so long to reply. Ive been traveling around Europe a bit).
Nice to get an add from a local band (they're generally wannabe Metal bands from the US).
I cant really hear your music (as it doesnt seem to be working). Err... nice Myspace though I guess (I feel I have to say something nice about you guys).
Anyway, let me know if you ever get the music working.
Appreciate your finding me. I've been in Spain for three weeks so I've not been on here. Apoligies for the delayed acceptance. Come enjoy the tunes and say hello. I'll get back to you as soon as I can!
