Philadelphia, PA's Total Fucking Destruction is an eccentric grindcore band founded by drummer Rich Hoak in 1999, shortly after departing his former band, legendary grinders Brutal Truth. Eight years and countless demos, singles, EPs, and split-releases later, Hoak and partners-in-crime Paul Herzog (guitar, vocals), Steve "Pingdum" Morasco (guitar), and Joe Sweeney (bass, vocals), released their eclectic debut album, Zen and the Art of Total Fucking Destruction, through Translation Loss Records. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
