Destroy 2


Destroy 2 was a short-lived Japanese noise rock band. Consisting of only two members, Yamantaka Eye of Boredoms and Chew Hasegawa of Corrupted, they released one infamous recording in 1996 called We Are Voice and Rhythm Only. This was actually a live recording of a concert in Osaka done as a support for Brutal Truth on their Japanese tour in February 1995. Running for little over 10 minutes, it nevertheless features 48 songs, the longest of which is "24H?". Note that the song running times also include audience cheering and an introduction by Eye at the beginning and Eye's obligatory cry of "Fankoo!" at the end. Apart from that, the songs consist mostly of Chew attacking his drum set and Eye screaming the track titles in Engrish at the top of his lungs, generally creating a lot of feedback. The album also includes two cover versions: "Beastie Boys" and "Nazi Punks Fuck Off!", although the vocals of these have been sped up somewhat to fit into 18 and 17 seconds, respectively.
