Ready the Destroyer — Through This Night
November 6, 2008 by: gajoob
Ready the Destroyer is a Chicago-based 3-piece in the vein of Built To Spill, Dinosaur Jr, The Afghan Whigs, Fugazi while turning an ear toward Yellow Card, Green Day, etc. Neill Miller (vocal/guitar), Aaron Cleall (bass), and Nicolas Lama (drums) balance the nacent grit of furious rock with a direct melodic approach and build it to the gutpunch in these songs. This is definitely a band to watch out for. They’ve been honing their sound with solid local and regional shows with the likes of The U.S. Bombs, Far From Finished, Sybris, Venom Lords and Milk at Midnight. Their new CD, Through This Night, was released October 2, 2008 to loyal fans at Reggie’s Rock Club and is now available at cdbaby and elsewhere everywhere. Reviewed by: Bryan Baker
