Annihilation of Civilization
Annihilation of Civilization is the debut album from Evildead, a thrash metal band originating from California. It was released in September 1989 on Steamhammer Records, and was preceded by the EP Rise Above, released some months earlier. The album and the single "Annihilation of Civilization" earned Evildead widespread recognition in large part due to airplay of the single's video on MTV's Headbangers Ball. Annihilation of Civilization was the only Evildead album for 31 years to feature Albert Gonzales on guitar and Rob Alaniz on drums. The lineup that recorded this album (except bassist Mel Sanchez, who was replaced by Karlos Medina) would be reunited for their third album United States of Anarchy (2020). Track listing
