"Destroyer" is a song by industrial metal band Static-X and the second single from their album Cannibal. The song was released on iTunes on 13 February.

The video was filmed on 7 March and according to band member Wayne Static it features two roller derby teams and has a 70's theme. Most of the roller derby girls featured in the video originate from the Central Coast Roller Derby in San Luis Obispo, California.[citation needed] In the video, several illegal roller derby moves are shown - such as clotheslining an opponent and punching during a fight. The band members appear in the video as themselves and other people attending the roller derby, all with penis inuendos for names. Wayne Static appears as the derby's announcer, "Dick Hurtz." Tony Campos and Nick Oshiro are crazed fans, "Mike Rotch" and "Mon Kedick," and Koichi Fukuda appears as the referee, "Don Keedick."

On March 20, 2007 Static-X released the "Destroyer EP" exclusively at Hot Topic stores across the USA.

The song was featured in the commercial for WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008.
