Destrage Gearing Up For European Tour Dates

Destrage will begin a European tour with Protest the Hero, The Faceless, and The Contortionist in one week in Leipzig, Germany.

The band has teamed up with Bode Music Gear to produce new tour video episodes for the Bode Music Gear youtube channel. What will make these videos exciting? Challenges. Destrage will be putting band members to the test in completely pointless and trivial challenges: who can fit the most of something in their mouth, pushups, jumping over cars, who can do the most shots, who can break the most guitar strings, etc. What the band will end up with after a few weeks on tour, we can merely venture to guess, but given the bands irreverent and absurd track record, it's a guaranteed good time.

Destrage has also partnered with Sheet Happens Publishing to release a new guitar transcription book titled "Are You Kidding Me? No. The Complete Guitar Transcription," scheduled to be released this month while Destrage is on tour.

In other news, Destrage guitarists Matteo Di Gioia and Ralph Salati have released a new and in depth guitar tutorial for "My Green Neighbour" at this location.

Matteo Di Gioia comments: "These tabs were written by us. There is no deviation herein. Following Luke and Tim's lovely suggestions, we put down every single note the way we play it. We divided the tracks the way we do while playing live and avoided loops and doubling sections as much as possible. We tried to explain as in depth as possible to deliver you an honest, clear, and enjoyable reading experience."
