Nja I wonder how song midnight sun fitts in hate n agresion

I don't know what lyrical context is around the title song, but just on its own, as a title it's rather dumb. I hope I am wrong because I've always enjoyed this band.

we'll see the context when he listen to the song, read the lyrics.

Those are some pretty funny song titles.

Wtf with those title songs? Looks like it was made by a 15 year old. They're satanic children's lyrics.

Wasn't that always Kreator's schtick?

The title song is quite excellent despite the intro quite boring (already heard so many times) , a little less melodic than the one Kreator got us used to lately. Is Eliran kantor the artist of the cover art ?

I don't care what ppl think of kreator, they were awesome before and they are awesome now. Still can't get satan is real out of my head

Not so impressed by this single, hoping for more melodic songs on the album.

"Hate is the virus of this world", I heard it right, right? That's a good lyric.

"Hate is the virus of this world! Capitalism is bad!

... Accept rioting and looting, that's cool! And attacking police, that's cool! And big pharma, they're cool! And gov't overreach, that's cool! And big corporate media, they're cool!"

It's kind of hard to remove the politics from a band where politics play such a key role in their image, sound, and lyrics.

But Kreator's political hypocrisy aside... this was a pretty decent song. Second half was better than the first half.

From their body of lyrics, interviews, videos, etc. Not a big deal, it's no different than a band like Arch Enemy complaining about corporate greed. Lots of hypocrisy in the world of edgy "anti-establishment" type metal bands, it's nothing new, just fun to poke fun at!

Again, the song was good.

Interesting.

You know, I've been listening to metal for over 3 decades and I've read and and seen countless interviews with Kreator in the course of the years, because compared to other metal musicians, Mille has always been overrepresented in the German media. The absolute majority of these interviews has never been translated into English and most of the TV interviews are still not available on the internet for legal reasons.
I'm therefore quite sure that I've heard and seen much more of this band than the average American metalhead.

Nevertheless, I have never heard Mille or any other band member stating something like
"And big pharma, they're cool! And gov't overreach, that's cool! And big corporate media, they're cool!"

Since I don't want to die stupid: can you give me and everyone else some examples of Kreator praising big pharma, endorsing government overreach and supporting big corporate media to back up your differing perception?
Otherwise one may think you just made it all up.

Kreator have had this stance since their very beginning... which was in the early '80s. They did not jump on an anti-establishment bandwagon, they were formed way back when there were two Germanies. You have to take into account the circumstances of each band. Kreator became a band in the Ruhr area at a time when unemployment was high due to the fact that the coal mines had been closed a few years prior and the steel industry had taken a hit. There was a big drug and alcohol problem. The band, like many other thrash bands at the time, was formed by young people who were seen as society's outcasts and had an unpromising present and a bleak future. Roberto was spoonfeeding old ladies in a care home in the morning for a living and playing "Love Us Or Hate Us" on stage in the evening. There is an interesting documentary about all this but I cannot remember the name now. Anyway, I don't understand where you see hypocrisy. Do you think Mille today drives a Porsche and lives in a mansion so that singing about social issues is hypocritical on his part? The comparison to Arch Enemy is like comparing, I don't know, cars with oranges. The only thing in common that Kreator have with every Swedish melodeath band is that the latter have all listened to Coma Of Souls way too many times before their own formation.

And the song slays. It is 2022's "Flag Of Hate".

You probably mean the "Thrash, Altenessen" documentary from 1989.
Fun to watch, really. I'm just sorry for all the non-native speakers, for the subtitled version's video quality is pretty poor and they had to leave out quite a lot of the funny stuff happening in the background.

^ Yes! Thank you.

The chorus of the song says "hate is the virus of this world". He's not wrong now, is he?

When the book is called "Teletubbies invaders from Mars" it is difficult to expect something serious =)

I would 100% read a book with that tittle. sounds like a blast

Well I think Kreator did their job with lyrics and song titles. Album is not released yet, and 28 comments already.
