Bloody and raucous; the Mississauga/Aurora quintet, DESTAIN is one of the most anticipated up and coming metal bands. "If you don't move, I might have to kick you in the balls," lead vocalist Mike Hewat warns; the fervently awaiting crowds know Destain's performances mean only one thing: the mosh pit is imminent.
With two first place battle of the bands awards in hand, DC Music's 2006 "Last Band Standing Contest" and Supernova's 2007 June 1st @ The Opera House, DESTAIN continues to offer up a pit-deep, low-end storm of thrash metal hail from hell. There is no doubt that the preamble from Treblinka is their definition: "I am the devil, and I am here to do the devil's work."
Grounded by the bestial tom-poundings of drummer, Brendan Mariani, and heavy backings by bassist Cody Bastarache, rhythm guitarist Matt Keeley and lead axe-man, Alex Barker serve up a barrage of boulder-sized riffs that culminate into an air-tight, sonic crunch. In a rage resembling that of a conniption, Barker attacks his guitar and, with fleeting fingers, consummates his fury with a sprinkling of magic "spells" all over the fret board.
Like heroin-addiction, heavy music fans seem hooked at once, and before you can squeal out a pathetic, "Please don't hurt me," emerges the sordid, ragamuffin-crew of hay-making moshers, slinging their array of reckless punches, unbridled kicks and thrusting shoves. Singer Hewat connects with the crowd and is a sight to behold. Amid violently flailing locks, he snarls out nail-sharp, poison-dipped, vocal buck shots and aims them straight at your mutha-f@$%* head.
For those of the weak at heart, mustering up enough courage for their next gig might require a substantial dose of careful deliberation; so be forewarned: DESTAIN will de-skin. They'll have you screaming for Aloe Vera as they violently blast your entire body through their earsplitting, sandpaper-laced, euphonic canon.
