Static-X Week: Inside Destroyer

04/05/07
. (Day in Rock) We continue our Static-X special today with Wayne telling us a bit about "Destroyer," the first single from the new CD. Here is Wayne: "One of the keys to our early success was keeping the songs simple. For Destroyer, I started with the most simple drum beat used a million times in rock music. I programmed the beat on my Akai MPC 2000 and started playing guitar to it. The opening riff came to me quickly. I wanted to make sure this song stayed in the Evil Disco realm so I turned on my Korg Electribe MX and came up with the synth bass line for the chorus. I love the lyrics on this song. I imagined a person who destroys the mood where ever he/she goes."

Listen to the song at the full story link and be sure to pick up the CD 'Cannibal' which hit stores this week and check back tomorrow for more! - Click here for the Full Story
