DESTRUCTION Announces 2022 U.S. Tour With NERVOSA

As part of their 40th anniversary celebration, German thrash-godfathers DESTRUCTION have announced a 2022 Diabolical North American tour. As if that wasn't enough, the band is also unleashing a new album, 'Diabolical' which is set to drop on April 8th, 2022 via Napalm Records. The 26-date tour will commence at Elsewhere in Brooklyn, NY on April 28th and will conclude at the Maryland Deathfest in Baltimore, MD. Brazilian thrashers NERVOSA are set to provide direct support as SUNLORD and VX36 will be the special guests.
Schmier comments: "Yes — we are super thrilled: the first tour of the new record, 'Diabolical', will kick off in North America. We could not tour there on the last album because of the pandemic, so we made it a top priority to return as soon as the circumstances would allow us, to play for our American fans again!
"We are bringing our friends NERVOSA along — they are a perfect match! We toured together before and the pits were smoking! They also haven't toured in the USA or Canada in a long while. This is a killer package and we are super excited! See you all for a serious beating!!!"
Prika Amaral adds: "This will be a super fun tour with legends and friends — NERVOSA with DESTRUCTION touring for the third time together, but this time in North America, and NERVOSA with the new lineup. Be prepared for a thrash massacre! We can't wait!"
