"The Price", a brand new song from German thrash metal veterans DESTRUCTION, is available for streaming on the band's MySpace page. The track comes off the group's new album, "Day Of Reckoning", which will be released on February 28, 2011 via Nuclear Blast Records. The first limited edition of the album will not feature the band's logo on the booklet while the vinyl version and second pressing of the CD will show a red DESTRUCTION logo on it.

Commented DESTRUCTION bassist/vocalist Marcel "Schmier" Schirmer:

"First of all, 'cause I hear the hardcore fans already complaining, the DESTRUCTION skull and the butcher can be found in the illustrated booklet of "Day Of Reckoning". The last man on earth that faces the end of the world, the concept of the album had to have the most evil base with a striking eye-catching look. We decided to not use the classical butcher theme on the cover front this time, 'cause this album needed a malicious look with symbols that express this strong title in the most bold and simple way.

The story line will continue through the whole cover art and booklet. Gyula, a fantastic artist and metal fan from Hungary, was a great help for us with nailing down this concept. It's not the first time we worked with him; he illustrated all our latest releases! Like the band, he breathes, lives and understands the concept of a rather socially critical band like DESTRUCTION to the bone!"
