About
Formed in 1994 by K.K. Warslut (formerly of Bestial Warlust), Deströyer 666 is one of Australia's most influential extreme metal exports. Originally based in Melbourne, the band is a pioneer of the 'Australian War Metal' sound, characterized by a savage fusion of black metal, thrash, and death metal. Following the success of their landmark debut 'Unchain the Wolves' (1997), the band relocated to Europe in the early 2000s to expand their reach. Over their decades-long career, they have released six studio albums through major underground labels like Season of Mist, including the acclaimed 'Phoenix Rising' (2000) and 'Never Surrender' (2022). They remain a definitive force in the global underground metal scene.
