In the 90's,the Kreator went into an "experimental" phase. In their four releases during that decade, they enhanced or even replaced their pure thrash metal style to different styles, such as Gothic, Heavy, Industrial etc. For the eight years that followed (1992-1999), many fans showed their dislike of the new stuff ,some just found it slack; only a few appreciated it.

The first album of Kreator I listened to. So, it has a special place. It may not be thrash metal, but lyrically and musically it's much more than a good album...

"Count the days that pass you by
Minds erased, the individual dies.

Conform into society
And you become your own worst enemy."

Mille has spoken an undeniable truth.

You can find lots of lyrics of this kind in Kreator's 80's and post-2000 stuff. And unlike this album, the music is also good.

So much better than Endorama...at least this one still has personality (and a good amount of thrash IMO.)

Honestly, this was a very good album. It may not have been like the others but it was very different in it's own way but the good way.

Good, very good. I didn't even know Tommy Vetterli from the legendary Coroner joined Kreator for two albums, so maybe that's why the songs feel so well structured. No, wait! This album actually sounds pretty much like late Coroner. I did not expect that at all, but it's true. Go listen to some Grin and whatever they released after that and then come back to this, it's obvious. I just wish they had kept the guy from Whiplash on drums, the dude was phenomenal.

Gothic metal?? Lol, whoever edit the genre didn't listen to the album clearly. It does incorporate some darker, atmospheric elements, more groove-oriented and fall on industrial-influenced territory, but far from gothic metal.
