KREATOR

Release Year: 2017
Artist Origin: GER
Style: intense raging violent thrash metal

when 90-ies era Kreator achievements are discussed, both first or the later followed records are typically praised, yet the interim smasher from 1987 is shamefully unnoticed, turning into a dark horse of Teutonic thrash metal kult: one of the fundamental albums of the genre smartly combines the authentic savage idea and much improved structure of tracks, brimming with unique dynamics, haunting vibe and relentless ambitions, while its refrains are equally mesmerizing; recent deluxe gatefold sleeve double black 180g vinyl edition comes with a remastered sound, pro-printed inner sleeves, Mille's liner notes and vintage pictures, as well as the entire Out of The Dark ... Into The Light EP [1988] with Raven cover and live tracks from 1988's Dynamo club in Netherlands, and three extra cuts from the infamous 1990's festival in East Berlin
