Devastator - Nuclear Proliferation (2006)

Devastator were a Black/Thrash Metal band from South Florida made up of members of Cuban nationality. These known warriors of underground Black and Roll and old school Thrash Metal remain in the leadership of this kind in the United States. Its sharp and synchronized guitars and aggressive drums invoke us with some Teutonic metal and early Venom, Bathory, Celtic Frost, and a little flirting of the traditional Greek Black Metal from the early 90's.

Devastator was started in 2001. Their first release was a demo entitled "Infernal Devastation", and had five hymns of war brought to light by the North American label "Regimental Records." Their first full length album was "The End", produced by Regimental Records and re-edited in 2011 by its current North American label "Old Cemetery Records." However, their first significant mark on the underground scene and true old school Metal world would be their masterpiece, "Nuclear Proliferation", pressed in 2006 by Regimental Records. This album has had excellent acceptance in the real underground Metal world so much that in his majestic blog, "Band of the Week", Fenriz recommended them, thus becoming the second band in the history of this blog recommended by this member of Darkthrone! Devastator has achieved great popularity in the underground, and because of this, their next album "Morbid Force" was pressed by the English label "Die Todesrune”, demonstrating its popularity among the most elite circles of the global underground. In 2008, they signed with their new and present record label,"Old Cemetery Records", and released their 4th album, "Conjuring Evil", and continued along the same line – old school sounding Black Thrashing Metal. Also in 2008, they shared a split with the American band "Amputator." This split CD was released by the French record label "Maltkross."
In 2009, their fifth production was brought to light by "Old Cemetery Records", titled "The Summoning". This stunning album is not suitable for non-organic Metal fans; this album contains the anthem and masterpiece, entitled "A thousand and One Nights". In 2010, Devastator surprised us with a new album, "Nocturnal Slut", keeping the same line of traditional rhythms, and a bit more of the Teutonic Metal and exquisite Black and Roll. Devastator were definitely one of the bands in the forefront of the true old school Metal world.
