SFD - Destruction of the Youth DEMO (1993)

We are all a creation of our environment, of our trials.  We become what we know, what we are conditioned to be, the sum of our experiences.  So it is with musicians, and Metal is no exception.  In the early 90's there was no internet within easy grasp and we heard only the Metal that made it to our shores, thus the pool of material to draw inspiration from was infinitely smaller than the vast range available to us in this era of digital wonders.  There were some metal bands that DID manage to get their material here in bulk, and they mopped up BIG time.  That doesn't mean to say that the other bands weren't getting their CDs here, but they were more underground and far less exposed.  Metal was ruled globally by Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, RATM, Anthrax, Iron Maiden, Kreator and a few others of note, and their shit was everywhere.
