Destined For Destruction – Deathchant 115

For a pure, unadulterated shot of late-90s UK hardcore, get this one wired directly into your veins. UK producer Hellfish’s ‘Destined For Destruction’ was originally unleashed in 1997 on Deathchant and soon became a cult favourite thanks to its crushing kick drums, razor-sharp production and unforgettable trance-infused breakdown, all of which cemented Julian Cobb’s reputation as one of the hardcore era’s most inventive producers. Nearly three decades on, this reissue pairs the original with a couple of different remixes that ring out new caustic textures, brains-addled intensity and brutal grooves capable of causing absolute carnage. It’s a Deathchant classic that has lost none of its destructive power.
