Destroyer 666are nowunveiling the artwork of their forthcoming full-length 'Wildfire', which has been slated for release on the 26th of February.
The original ink drawing has been created byZbigniew M. Bielak. The Polish artist and architect has won applause and recognition in the metal scene through his works for bands such as Ghost, Mayhem, and Watain among many more.
Regarding his drawing for 'Wildfire', Bielak comments: "Contrary to the usual route, part of my family fled communism to Australia. Thus my isolated cousins used to send me tapes with weird OZ bands like Amoured Angel, Martire, or Hobbs instead of American thrash.

My love for metal from down under endured and finally, after countless merchandise designs and three reissue collaborations, 'Wildfire' is Destroyer 666's first brand new album that I have worked on. What survived from the usual brainstorming ordeal is a nod to classic metal imagery in a biker-friendly, Danzig meets Blasphemy vein - a refreshing and welcome exercise in simplicity. Having outlasted retro trends, stripped of all gimmickry right to their very rock n' roll bone, Destroyer 666 stand tall, hailing both Slaughter Lord and Angry Anderson, with what is in my opinion their most unforced and classy album to date."
The artwork of 'Wildfire' can be viewed below and published immediately.
"Wildfire" comes with the eponymous track and eight other songs such as "Traitor", "Live and Burn", and more titles to be revealed in full later.
Destroyer 666 have already announced a show at the prestigiousMaryland Deathfest inBaltimore, MD (US) end of May 2016 and the band isworking on a tour in SouthAmerica during early 2016 and Australian dates soon afterwards.
