Riffing, ESP Signature Guitars & Advice with Mille Petrozza (Kreator) | ESP Social Takeover Weekend

[@zoranbl1990]

Loving this guy for 20 years now. Its really insane when you see that he was a founder of Kreator back in 1982. He was 15 years old and to this day he never stops to create amazing metal music. Still sounds great as a vocalist, plays amazing. Such a legend. TRUE METAL GOD. RESPECT!

[@ethansage9940]

Same exact thoughts. Well said..

[@EM-zj1xm]

Kreator is n1 thrash metal band in my list and one of my favourite bands in metal in general. They always have melodic thing going on and epic/uplifting feeling behind their brutality. Listen them since I was about 14 years old (around 2004-2005). Long live Mille and the band!

[@MoonOvIce]

The awesome thing is that Mille keeps up with the times musically while at the same time keeping the Kreator sound without major sacrifices.

[@PatHeathGuitar]

Thanks Mille! Such a great interview - so insightful!

[@ericvalverderosado2046]

Mile’s right...after covid Metal will explode live...continuous concerts and festivals nonstop 🤘🏽, also we will have new music quicker than ever because of bands using tech and improving creative processes...good stuff coming for Metal in the future

[@michaelpeisler7523]

Absolutely right I am looking very forward to the new Album of Kreator And also the new ones from Rammstein and Megadeth as well

[@MoonOvIce]

I can't believe it took until covid for artists to use tech more (well, those that don't make some kind of electronic music at least), or for people in general, I am surprised every single day.

[@Locoandchooch]

When I started playing guitar in the 80’s, it wasn’t Lynch Vai or VH that influenced me, it was Mille and Hetfield.

[@manocornuta]

🤘👍🍻

[@torstenmuller5455]

Same with me!

[@m7xca49]

They both should do a down picking competition against each other! The decision will be close as fuck! 😅

[@zandig666]

Kreators early sound is just kil kill killer !!!

[@Turbo-D]

i have his signature engl head and its just amazing, why did he switch to kemper?

[@ericvalverderosado2046]

Most bands are doing it for convenience’s sake...easier to transport it inside a box with a wireless system...that’s all they’ll need

[@PatHeathGuitar]

Hi Chris, Mille still does, he remarked upon our ENGL setup before the interview, I think it's a convenience thing, Kempers are very useful tools and are great used in tandem, backline techs love easy setups!

[@LosTroopos]

If i remember correctly from pictures Kreator has 4 Kempers with their wireless units placed in a rack for live shows. 2 for the guitars, 1 for the bass, 1 as a backup. All in-ears, no cabs on stage. It's a massive cost saving tool for them. Transportation costs go down, it enables fly gigs, no tube replacements etc. The convinience of having the same sound every night and on every stage is hard to beat for bands that tour with that kind of schedule. Also it seems he is using it in his flat. He won't need a 100w tube head for that. He still uses tube amps in the studio though.

[@MoonOvIce]

@@LosTroopos Technology has come so far though, that tube amps will probably be replaced in the near future.

[@Dennis-vm3fs]

great!! fan since the late eighties.... favourite song: riot of violence greetings from the netherlands!

[@Luk4zguy97]

What a sweet guy!

[@Erickreator666]

Nice to see Mille since all this time without any Kreator gig :(

[@jowyong6769]

YEAHHH!!! Clicked the moment I saw Mille Petrozza!! The hero from my favourite trash metal band!! SATAN IS REAL 🤘😈🤘

[@ozi76]

Legend. 🤘

[@billgeezeriommi]

I just wish they would include the Kahler bridge on the models you can buy, I would get it then.

[@RÅNÇIÐ]

The only person I know who, even more than James Hetfield, exclusively sticks to downpicking.

[@PatHeathGuitar]

He's very humble about his technique and abilities, even though he's a master at what he does, the world is a better place with Mille's riffs & songs!

[@crovian1985]

He’s the king of downpicking ,Kreator 🤘🏻

[@InvisibleJiuJitsu]

i was told by a dealer that his signature guitar had been discontinued?

[@SoundServiceGmbH]

No, it's still available: www.espguitars.com/products?categories=mille-petrozza

[@LosTroopos]

@@SoundServiceGmbH The japanese made E-II version has been discontinued, though.

[@SoundServiceGmbH]

@@LosTroopos that's right.

[@billgeezeriommi]

I believe it's just on back order

[@melpetroza1863]

Caralho pra tocar bicho doido Taís louco 👏👏👏👏😃😀

[@bernardjozic1016]

Mille the legend! Also, nice shirt! The Other, horror punk from germany!

[@fatboydashredder9877]

Kinda sucks that they didn't use a kahler like he does on his single humbucker model

[@kichkandi734]

KREATOR....!!!

[@ziadhine5739]
