Reviewing EVERY Kreator Album!

[@hayden243]

I don’t like to throw around the term “favorite band” too much because I hate choosing favorites, but Kreator is dang close to being my favorite band. They pretty much helped me survive my senior year of high school and they’re a very sentimental band for me. I got the chance to see them live last week with Sepultura and Death Angel and it was a dream come true for me! But anyway, that’s enough rambling, here’s my ranking with scores out of 10. I went through all their albums recently and rated each song and averaged them out to get the album scores. Great video by the way! 15. Renewal - 6.4 14. Outcast - 6.4 13. Cause For Conflict - 6.8 12. Endorama - 7.1 (I for one really dig this album) 11. Hordes of Chaos - 7.9 10. Violent Revolution - 8.2 9. Hate Uber Alles - 8.2 8. Endless Pain - 8.4 7. Terrible Certainty - 8.5 6. Enemy of God - 8.5 5. Pleasure To Kill - 8.5 4. Coma of Souls - 8.8 3. Gods of Violence - 8.8 2. Phantom Antichrist - 8.9 1. Extreme Aggression - 9 (one of my all time favorite album)

It is such a coincidence this video drops the same day the kreator concert happens.

[@nemesis8626]

Seeing as most bands tour for months and months on end isn't really that much of a coincidence

[@alex_flamer]

​@@nemesis8626he means that the video is the day Kreator is playing a show in his hometown along with Sepultura (which he already did a discography review video for.)

May I share you with my friends list ? The reason being, Privacy !

[@alexddragame]

Cool ranking. Band really was incredibly consistent up to early 90's and then returned to being more consistent in mid 00's. Also hot take but I actually like Endorama. I'm generally more gothic metal guy than thrash guy.

Lmao its all good bud, if you dig it then you dig it. More power to ya.

[@nangarsd-00]

extreme agression is so underrated i suggest now reviewing every voivod or annihilator albums

[@crucifixmegabuster95]

2016 was my first taste of this band and I never regretted it. To me this is thrash metal. The intensity, calculated music. Top tier band.

[@keng.2468]

You are bang on here. I really enjoy their later work quite a bit. You won't go wrong with Enemy of God, Hordes of Chaos, Phantom Antichrist or Gods of Violence. All strong works in their catalogue as the band ages like a fine whine.

[@fromhell13]

A few years back I had a major spinal cord injury and it was a long, hard road to learn to walk again. Through all that, Destroy What Destroys You off of Hordes of Chaos was my power mantra that kept me going. Just saw Kreator a couple weeks ago, and they still destroy every time.

[@hsmetalhb2036]

Just discovered your channel... nice ranking, I pretty much agree with what you said. I always loved Coma of Souls, because back in 1990, this was the Album I discovered Kreator with, when I was a Teenager (omg!). I pretty much enjoyed their last ALbums from Enemy of God to Gods of Violence. I was a bit disappointed about Hate über alles, although it is quite solid. Anyway: Great review, cool video

[@mjnation7876]

I actually recently saw Kreator with Death Angel and Sepultura. Did VIP and met all three bands. Great show. Ended up getting 7 things signed lol. Terrible Certainty, Extreme Aggression, and Coma Of Souls are my favorites from Kreator. Nice video.

[@w-james9277]

Solid band! I love their 80's thrash albums, not keen on their industrial/grove/gothic phase and I love their later melodeath/thrash albums. Phantom Antichrist for me is... 😘👌

[@tomorrows_dream]

Endless Pain and Pleasure to kill are ferocious, barbaric slabs of thrash greatness. Coma of Souls is killer as well.

[@michalisveliziotis615]

Cool discussion. Personally, I consider Extreme Aggression and Coma of Souls two of the best thrash metal albums ever recorded.

[@Flugmorph]

I like their 90s material a lot more than you apparently do because im kinda more into industrial and gothic metal than thrash but otherwise i really like your descriptions and ratings of their discography, good stuff.

[@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385]

"Enemy Of God!!!" Ubër Allies!! Blasting in the Uber ride lol.

[@nlwrigh]

Kreator is my favorite Thrash band still current, glad to see the ranking! Pretty on point with how I feel about all of them, too, I learned to listen to Endorama with a different mindset. Hated it at first. Great job as always!

[@emsig70]

I have a soft spot for Renewal. It came out the same year as Ministry's Psalm 69. And I f*cking loved that record. I was surprised to hear that Kreator kinda ventured into this terrain and I could relate. I'd give it happily a 3.5 out of 5.

[@ExhumedCorpse]

Badass ranking. I fucking love Kreator, especially the first five albums. Such a great band.

[@MrRoundthetwist]

Great to see you doing KREATOR! Imo.. Best legacy album - Extreme Aggression 🤘 Best modern album - Phantom Antichrist 🤘

[@MetalHeart8787]

Im doing a Review for my Favorite Songs. Extreme Aggression is one of my favs because it was the First Kreator Album i Bought when it came out in 1989.

[@freddymaierx2363]

Sodom have to come next

[@SomerankeroffYT]

For me, Kreator’s best material came after terrible certainty as while it is extreme, I will take more tight & melodic sound they started with extreme aggression (and went back to in the 2000s) really weird that one of the most uncompromising thrash bands became debatably the best songwriters and melodic bands of the revival era but I couldn’t be happier that it was them.

[@dravenquinn264]

My ranking for the Kreator albums would be🤘 15. Cause For Conflict 1995 14. Renewal 1992 13. Endorama 1999 12. Outcast 1997 11. Endless Pain 1985 10. Hate Uber Alles 2022 9. Violent Revolution 2001 8. Phantom Antichrist 2012 7. Gods Of Violence 2017 6. Terrible Certainty 1987 5. Hordes Of Chaos 2009 4. Enemy Of God 2005 3. Pleasure To Kill 1986 2. Extreme Aggression 1989 1. Coma Of Souls 1990

[@thebends1029]

You know....during the cause for conflict segment you talked about machine head, just suggesting that it would be fun to do a machine head review for all albums

[@kowalsolosolo]

I will always defend ENDORAMA. If you are familiar with earlier German alternative rock/metal scene and bands like LACRIMOSA or XMal DEUTSCHLAND ,you can definitely understand this album better. It is just...a different type of music and I am glad the band has a record like this in the catalog.

[@DamnableReverend]

These guys were my favourite German thrash for a long time. I thinka t some point for me they did get eclipsed in my listening by Sodom, but of course I still really enjoy kreator. They always seem fully commited to what they're doing and MIlle's vocals sound like they really hurt him live. Not totally into the melodeath-ish-sounding stuff (but ti's still pretty commendable) and I wish albums out Outcast and Endorama were better -- I respect them but don't enjoy them much, pretty much for the reasons you mentioned. My favourites have always been Pleasure to Kill and Extreme Aggression. The latter was the first one I heard. "Some Pain will Last" still blows my mind. It seems like every time something changes in the guitar realm there's a bit of a change in the band's sound. I think they've had the same lead guitarist now since Violent Revolution, so everything since then has sort of sounded like a development of that approach. Terrible Certainty is an odd one -- first Kreator album with a second guitarist and he was only there for the one album. The solos all sound out of tune with Mille and it bugs me more than the crazy stuff Mille played on PTK. It's clearner too but also less heavy. Extreme Aggression they were back to just Mille on guitar (I think) and yet it's so much better.

[@MrOmac09]

Great video dude. I love Kreator, Terrible Certainty is my personal favorite.

[@anthonystaffen3983]

Just saw them Tuesday night. Great show!

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Yeee they're great live.

[@anthonystaffen3983]

@@themetalmeltdownofficial I'm a bigger Sepultura fan, Kreator sounded the best by far!

[@doomguyrox1156]

Cool video, liked hearing your opinions on their albums. Im not a big fan of kreator, i like them, but I enjoy other thrash bands more than them. Though is saying that, first 2 albums are just goated imo, their really fun. Pleasure took me awhile to get into since I preferred Sodom (still do) and used to view kreator as a weaker Sodom, but I've grown to love pleasure a lot now, it's a very fun death-thrash album

[@old-mtl-guy]

I love their early stuff, unpolished, raw, innovative, I saw them in New Haven, CT on the Extreme Aggression tour with Coroner in the late 80's. It was awesome...there were some fights with some skinheads throughout the show that came to cause trouble, but other than that it was an epic show. The mid to late 90's were forgettable and highly experimental...they have been pretty consistent since the early 2000's using a formula that works....great live band to this day!!

[@zandig666]

Kreator slays !!!! I literally cherish about 8 of their albums and I mean cherish I like the original recordings of their first bunch 'cause I heard the originals first 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟 Slays !!!! KREATOR !!!!!!!!

Always a good watch, feel the same about conflict enough of old kreator there Gorguts next or despised icon lol

[@ibfreely8952]

Endorama is super underrated imo, a lot of their modern day epic choruses originate in that album.

[@Marc43666]

Sodom,Kreator,Slayer my 3 favs in Thrash

[@lucagianchino6404]

Hard band with very hard Music, Last album confirmed After all this time, always cool!;)

[@alexpinet3503]

Fuck yeah. My love for Enemy of God knows no bounds. That record was so goddamn (see what I did there?) important to me growing up.

[@thelegionary07]

Kreator’s gotta be one of the best to do it.. So many solid albums and songs.. Besides that mid period of weird weak albums, they are consistently great.. Oddly, I don’t love the most recent album, but it’s far from bad.. “Coma of Souls” and “Phantom Antichrist” are their best of the best

[@MadMike1]

German metal is just based to begin with, and Kreator might be the most based of them all

[@WilliamRyan-h2y]

Wholeheartedly agree with you about "Satan Is Real" being a certified slap-fest. So many people poo-poo that cut like it's straight trash, but I completely disagree. As always, great review!

[@vovindequasahi]

Terrible Certainty was my gateway-record into Kreator. I was always more into the more melodic and progressive form of Thrash metal, especially early on, and this album had just enough hooks and polish - and compositional quality - to win me over at that stage of my journey. I love that album. Since then I of course love all of their early stuff up-to-and-including Coma of Souls. The 90's made me lose sight of them, but they had a nice return to form in the 2000's (starting shyly with Violent Revolution, then in full force with Enemy of God) and since then they've held high form although none of their newer albums gained my feverish obsession like their earlier stuff (where listening to them gave you that deliciously evil feeling, like you are probably tainting your soul with darkness just listening to it, unleashing demons in your room, but you don't CARE lol!). Like old 70's horror movies, those earlier thrash albums have this inherent sinister feeling to them that feels kind of lost in the newer albums.

[@evilone1079]

I haven’t listened to much of this band’s stuff I came here for recommendations. I t would seem like I have a lot to listen too 😂

[@ozricness]

I don't see why there have to be melodeath influences. The melodic influences come from where melodeath got them from, early heavy metal. They may sound like melodeath because it's one of the its facets, melody with thrashy riffs.

[@MetalNeverDieswithMarkA]

Amazing work man. I ❤Kreator

[@Grim_reviews]

To me I can't choose one favorite album from these guys. I love gods of violence nost as this was my introduction to the band and I like the more melodic sound they had

[@balazskalman-og6du]

Rip to michael wulf aka destructor of sodom and kreator and Andreas herz of kreator

[@markpalavosvrahotes5575]

Enemy of God is probably my favorite.

[@aresgalamatis7022]

TL;DR: Kreator learned a lot of their 90s experiments and got back way better in the 2000s as their own instead of the german venom they were in the 80s ;)

[@noogie3784]

Ironic they were just in Chicago.

[@galen3849]

best thrash band tbh

[@blackwaterrust476]

Kreator, one of the 1st extreme metal bands I ever checked out, there is no doubt that I would have never gotten into Death, Morbid Angel without them. Their 1st 5 albums I think rival Metallica and slayer at the very least imo if not just flat out better. S: Pleasure to Kill, Terrible Certainty, Coma of Souls A: Endless Pain, Extreme Aggression, Phantom Antichrist B: Violent Revolution, Gods of Violence C: Enemy of God, Hordes of Chaos D: Hate Uber Alles, Cause for Conflict, Outcast F: Renewal, Endorama

[@Androsferum]

I had some of the first ones when they came out, I personally was never a hardcore Kreator fan and never really connected with their "style", a million times I would ever pick Assassin before them, but that band for some reason I never understood grabbed the attention of no one at the time, and apparently no one even remembers them, The upcoming terror & Interstellar experience are far better stuff than any of Kreator's... of course IMHO, no disrespect intended EDIT: lol, just finished the vid... great job, man! ...actually I think I'm gonna check the last ones you ranked high, see if there's something interesting there... now I'm gonna bug you to deliver your personal opinion on Assassin then XD ...I know the quality of sound in them is very sad, but the quality of metal is gonna add years to your sad life :P
