No make a difference how sad it is, summer months is above and concert existence is slowly moving indoors. For Latvian hefty new music admirers, the to start with significant occasion is now scheduled for September 2nd, when Polish heavyweights “Vader” and “Despise” (and also “Thy Illness”) will complete at the “Republika” club, but November it appears incredibly really serious for fans of these types of audio, when the live performance corridor “Palladium” ”several popular western bands will carry out in stripes and crests.
Between them, on November 23 the German “Kreator” – one of the founders of “thrash metal” – will maintain his only concert in the Baltic States on the phase of the “Palladium”. The unique company of the live performance are the Australian “dying core” band “Thy Art Murder” and the American “deathcore” “Gatecreeper”.
A couple of months in the past, “Kreator” unveiled his 15th studio album, which even rated 2nd in the charts of his indigenous Germany – an remarkable good results! Chief, singer and rhythm guitarist of “Kreator”, writer of all the tunes and simply just of the brand name is nonetheless the 54 yr old Mille Petroca.
The other folks are his longtime comrade in arms and drummer Jürgen Reil, aka Ventor, who has been in Kreator since 1982, Finnish guitarist Sami Ili-Sirnie (also performs in the after well known band “Waltari”) and three decades ago Christian Giesler, aka Spacey (was replaced by French bassist Frederic Leclair (also viewed in the ranks of the British group “DragonForce”). Stylistically, there are no changes: the similar energetic and forward German “thrash metal” with the unmistakable voice by Milles Petrocas on trumpet. A whole of 11 compositions, such as the intro “Sergio Corbucci Is Dead” (Sergio Corbucci is, that is, an Italian western director), the nearly seven-minute epic “Dying Earth” and the movie horror “Midsommar” designed by “Midnight Solar”, in which the German singer Sophie Portanet also appeared on the disc.
PAR. “Kreator” as “Kreator” – the most optimistic second is that Petroca continue to tries to choose into account the developments of fashionable steel music, at the very least in audio, hence, in the band’s handwriting, the third “outdated design and style” metallic is mixed with the electrical power, power and electrical power essential for these moments. The ideal tunes – the anthem “Killer Of Jesus” and the somewhat melodic “Strongest Of The Powerful”, perhaps even the slightly ability metallic “Come to be Immortal”. In live performance, the new content should audio fairly desirable.
Vs .. Edition of ‘Kerrang!’ this album only acquired two stars, and that is not specially shocking, since “Kreator” with the model of him smoothed in excess of by the decades and evenly printed can really get on your nerves. In addition, even thematically – in recent many years, Petroca has evidently observed himself in the job of the savior of the globe, so he judges social inequality and noble factors like that (the essence of which can be read in the song “Dying World”), of which he himself has a quite remote knowing and that listeners do not want them to listen to at all.
