German thrash metal legends Kreator have unleashed a music video for their new single, "666 - World Divided". It's available for streaming down under. "666 - World Divided" is available on all digital platforms and will be released physically on April 10th, 2020 as a limited split 7'' vinyl together with Lamb Of God's single "Checkmate" (already released and part of the upcoming record). It is not yet known whether this is a stand alone single or a first taste of a new album to come.
I understand Kreator's appeal: sometimes it's melodic, sometimes it's aggressive. It's just never that great.
This song perfectly exemplifies what's wrong with this dichotomy, a band too scared to get out of its comfort zone.
They have some anthemic songs but this is trash.
Good power metal song, fantastic artwork. Let's just hope that this is just a single track and they are not going to follow this path on the next album.
Not so bad. But they are still going through same formula started on Phantom 8 years ago. And this chorus style became pretty generic to be honest, especially with that same guitar melody in the background. I'm not expecting much on the next album.
