+ Making Of Enemy Of God
They are back !!! The great Thrash combo from Germany Kreator is back !!! And for sure with this new album "Enemy Of God", Mr Mille Petrozza and his band mates will show one more time, 20 years after their first release "Endless Pain", that the band is always one of the greatest of the entire Metal History. After Exodus, Death Angel and etc, last year, 2005 will do a great start with this great album of Thrash, a must have for all the fans of this excellent music. If you are a fan of Thrash, of Kreator or simply a real fan of Metal? "Enemy Of God" is made for you?
Like with Sodom, Megadeth or Exodus, a new album of Kreator is always a real event. The question is to know if they release something in the real spirit of Thrash Metal or no, if they always keep their great musical way of composition etc. If you really need an answer right now, I will give you one, don't worry with "Enemy Of God" Kreator shows that after 20 years of music, they are definitely not dead, at the opposite?
All the compositions of this album are great, it's really excellent to see that all the songs of this album are more than catchy and well done. That's not really new with Kreator, but with "Enemy Of God" you could see that the band is maybe better than ever. Great melodies, fantastic guitars solo [Thanks to Mr Sami Yli-Sirino], more than catchy choruses, great engaged lyrics etc, no really I can't find anything wrong in this album. That's pleasure nothing more?
If the first songs of the album, like "Enemy of God", "Impossible Brutality" or "Suicide Terrorist" smell the good old Thrash metal, some songs at the end of the album are maybe a bit more in the spirit of the "melodic" Metal that we all know nowadays. Don't worry it's not a bad point, because after all it's Thrash don't worry, but for some arrangements, it's maybe more in the spirit of for example some Melodic Death Metal bands that we have today. But I say it again, it's Thrash metal before all and it's a great Thrash but just a bit more melodic and well it's not a bad point at the opposite, it's just maybe a bit more easy of access for some of you.
"Enemy Of God" is a great album, with a great cover, an excellent production by Mr Andy Sneap [Ex Sabbat]. You will see, Enemy Of God deserve to be in your records collection, with its 12 fantastic songs.
I have nothing more to say, I only ask you to buy this new Kreator. In two words, for the ones who know the band, we are back in the great years [remember the "Extreme Aggression" and others "Coma Of Souls"] but all that is maybe a bit more melodic, and don't worry, that's not a problem at all...
Thrash Metal fans, Metalheads of all the horizons, I have only one thing to say to you, buy "Enemy Of God" or die !!!

I'm a fan of Kreator's work, but their recent stuff has been bothering me. Before I bought the album, the title track from "Enemy Of God" sounded pretty awesome. Unfortunately, after buying "Enemy Of God Revisited" (which was a great buy simply because of the live footage) and listening to Enemy Of God in full, I felt let down.
