LABEL: Red Stream

Destruction Ritual stands as one of the most crucial and cult-defining releases in U.S. Black Metal, a violent and ice-cold strike from KRIEG, one of the earliest and most influential American Black Metal acts. Emerging alongside bands like SARCOPHAGUS, JUDAS ISCARIOT, or TYPHUS, KRIEG helped carve out the bleak, hostile identity of the U.S. black metal underground — and Destruction Ritual remains one of the genre’s most grim and uncompromising statements.

This album is a raw, frostbitten assault, built on grim undefinable riffs, primitive drumming, and vocals that drip with hatred and despair. The production is deliberately cold and abrasive, capturing the true essence of early American Black Metal: no polish, no compromise, no mercy. Every track feels like a ritual of ruin — hostile, nihilistic, and drenched in the bleak atmosphere that defined the late-90s U.S. scene. Destruction Ritual is pure cult Black Metal: grim, ice-cold, and unwavering in its dedication to darkness. KRIEG’s ability to channel both Scandinavian influence and uniquely American desolation makes this album a cornerstone release for anyone devoted to the origins of U.S. Black Metal.

A mandatory piece of American Black Metal history — Destruction Ritual remains one of KRIEG’s most essential and enduring works.
