3/5 ·
Warthur
Kreator's followup to the career-reviving Violent Revolution presents the absolute angriest thrash metal I've ever heard - and in a genre which includes the likes of Slayer, pre-Black Album Metallica, and pre-tinfoil hat Megadeth that's saying a hell of a lot. Dragging thrash metal out and making it dance like the 1980s never ended, Kreator produce an album here to rival anything in their discography and are unafraid to shout about it. Mille Petrozza in particular deserves props as lead vocalist for investing his lines with a passionate intensity that borders on the truly apocalyptic. If Kreator are the Enemy of God, then on the basis of this album the big guy better put his running shoes on.

That said, he might have a fighting chance - the album is a little over-long, and becomes wearing before it hits the 50 minute mark, and on some cuts like One Evil Comes - A Million Follow the shallowness of some of the material ends up becoming evident.
