Destroy The Runner is:
Chad Ackerman.
Duane Reed.
Nick Maldonado.
Tanner Sparks.
Marc Kohlbry.
There comes a time in every artist’s life in which he must find himself through his medium. He must pry himself from any hint of reliance upon others and their art, and embrace who he is and what he was born to create.
Such is the case for Destroy The Runner, and their sophomore effort, ‘I, Lucifer’. Much like Radiohead with ‘OK Computer’ or U2 with ‘Joshua Tree’, Destroy The Runner have birthed a giant with ‘I, Lucifer’. 2006 saw the release of their debut album ‘Saints’, and while a solid effort, the record did not point towards a band satisfied with their sound, but rather, one developing it. ‘I, Lucifer’ sees Destroy The Runner as a band fully realized.
“We realized very quickly after the release of ‘Saints’ that our musical passion had shifted” explains the band. “We knew we needed to do something on our own terms, regardless of what people thought or wanted to hear. We needed to be who we really were and make an album that reflected that.” That album, ‘I, Lucifer’, is set to change the face of aggressive music as we all know it. Full of an unbridled passion and energy, the album does not let up throughout its 11 tracks. Each track shines with a uniqueness and feel unlike its predecessor, but the album flows soundlessly. ‘I, Lucifer’ is something that artistically has not been attempted, much less fully realized, by any of the bands peers.

Word, saints is pathetically generic and boring. I don't see how anyone could prefer it to I, Lucifer unless they're just getting into 'heavy' music. Not that I, Lucifer is anything special, it's just a shitload better.

saints is just generic metalcore its cool if u want to listen to possibly the most mainstream genre of metal and listen to the same shit over and over again! I, Lucifer just shows they are trying to be a bit more unique!

одна из лучших металкор коллективов, если их вообще можно таким назвать. Не надоедающие, совершенно не банальные. Изюминка

If their new album moves back to metalcore, I will listen as thoroughly as I did saints. But if it's the brother of I, Lucifer.. I won't even bother searching google for a rip.

Destroy is fucking amazing! I'm surprised they're not more popular. Saints is easily my top 5 metalcore album. And I would have to disagree Saints > I, Lucifer any day.
