Formed in 2017 Devastator quickly proceeded to take the local Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire scenes by storm with their unrelenting take on the primitive ‘Black Thrash Attack’ following the release of their self-titled three track demo heavily inspired by the titans of yesterday such SODOM, BATHORY, VENOM, HELLHAMMER and MOTÖRHEAD – the foundations were laid for what was to come.
In 2020, Devastator signed a one-album deal with the UK-based indie label Clobber records and would go on to release their debut album “Baptised in Blasphemy” to strong critical acclaim in the press across five continents and garnering the attention of recognised industry figures such Ben Ward (Orange Goblin), Tony Dolan (Venom) and Dom Lawson(Metal Hammer/The Guardian) – an exceptional feat for an underground debut album that was released during the difficult times brought on by the worldwide pandemic.
Long out of print and sold out, The band’s debut album ‘Baptised in Blasphemy’ is now re-released entirely remastered with new artwork and 8 bonus tracks and the new and 2nd album will follow in early Spring 2024 all on Listenable records.
