Destroy All Monsters was a Detroit rock band existing from 1973 to 1985, with sporadic performances since. Their music touched on elements of punk rock, psychedelic rock, heavy metal and noise rock with performance art. Their music was described by Lester Bangs as "anti-rock". Members of The Stooges and MC5 joined the band, and Sonic Youth singer/guitarist Thurston Moore compiled a three compact disc set of the group's music in 1994.
