He returns in 2025 “Campaign for Musical Destruction”a traveling tour led by the standard-bearers of grindcore Napalm DeathThe historic English band will be accompanied by metalheads from New Orleans Crowbarfrom the equally devoted to American heavy metal Full Of Hell and come on Brat.
THE Napalm Death were born in 1981 in the town of Meriden, 7 km from Birmingham airport, and are one of the most violent and long-lived bands in the history of extreme metal. Their debut album in 1987, “Scum”is considered by many to be the first true example of grindcore, a sort of milestone that marked the birth of a genre.
Throughout their career they have been protagonists of some genre changes. While always remaining in the extreme field, in fact, the band has on several occasions chosen to operate stylistic variations – for example embracing a mood closer to death and thrash, or approaching groove metal when it was raging, passing through noise. Even if their best moments are those in which they remain faithful to their origins and to the sound they practically invented: the one that combines the urgency of the sharpest hardcore punk with the uncompromising violence of thrash and death. All pushed to the extreme in every detail, from the speed of execution to the impact, passing through the lyrics.
One of the peculiarities of the Napalm Death It has always been the nature of the lyrics, very attentive to current issues, with implications that vary from environmentalism to politics, from human rights to pacifism, with implications linked to socialism and humanism.
If “Scum” It was the first album, the last of the sixteen studio albums recorded by the English group, “Threes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism” dates back to September 2020.
A concert of the ‘Campaign for Musical Destruction’ is also scheduled in Italy: February 22, 2025 at the Hall in Padua. Tickets will soon be available on MC2LiveVivaticket and authorized retailers.
