Destrage release extensive studio documentary; announce Italian show with Protest the Hero
- May 14th, 2014 –
Destrage launched a trailer on the Metal Blade Records youtube channel last week to serve as a preview of their extensive studio documentary. The band documented and discussed the creative process behind “Are You Kidding Me? No.” at length, including: Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal’s guest solo, interviews with the team behind every step of the production, individual tracking performances, and much more. This feature length film by director Giulia Gargano, is of a quality one would generally expect to see for sale as a bonus DVD. Watch the entire documentary and get to know Destrage like you never have before now at youtube.com/destrage.
In other news, Destrage recently confirmed a show on June 24th with Protest the Hero and Monuments in Italy! Details for this show, as well as additional updates from the band, can be found at facebook.com/Destrage.
