Metal Mind Productions is reissuing a portion of the DESTRUCTION's catalog including the following titles from the German thrash legends: All Hell Breaks Loose, The Antichrist and Metal Discharge. Album descriptions are as follows:

All Hell Breaks Loose - the band’s sixth full-length album from 2000. It was the first official album recorded with Schmier on vocals since 1988’s Release from Agony. It features guest appearance by Peter Tägtgren. The new edition includes six bonus tracks taken from Bestial Invasion From Hell demo.

The Antichrist - the band’s seventh studio album from 2001. An improved, more cohesive production and greater emphasis on pure, unchecked aggression is what The Antichrist is all about. A high degree of intensity accompanies most tracks on this disc, among the most virulent being the opener Thrash Till Death, the very nasty 'Nailed to the Cross', 'Bullets From Hell', the classic 'Godfather Of Slander' and 'Creations of the Underworld'. These tracks alone should turn casual Destruction listeners into hardcore addicts. The album was produced, recorded, engineered and mixed by Peter Tägtgren and Lars Szoke. The new edition includes a bonus track.

Metal Discharge - the band’s eighth studio album from 2003. Despite the fact how good their last two albums were (The Antichrist and All Hell Breaks Loose) Destruction decided to take their latest effort, Metal Discharge, and reduce the production values for it. They took away most of the clean production and slick mixing of their previous albums and gave their music a "raw" feeling again. The new edition includes seven bonus tracks – three IRON MAIDEN, METALLICA and THE EXPLOITED covers and four demo tracks.

Complete tracklistings and more info can be found at this location.

Destruction’s re-issues will be available in new digipak editions, each limited to 2000 copies. The material was digitally remastered using 24-Bit process. The release date is scheduled for April 26th in Europe and July 13th in North America (via MVD).
