Hey there, thanks so much for subscribing and commenting. This channel launched two Februarys back and hasn't exactly enjoyed a meteoric rise. 🤣 Still, I like making the videos and am planning to put the emphasis more on videos that only I could make. Things like how I got the job at Kerrang!, most memorable interviews, things like that. What do you think? 🤔👊🤟

@@PossessedByMetal666 sounds like a good plan. Maybe mix in more graphics (not sure that is the right term). But you know, "pop ups" when you mention something. Probably a pain in the ass but people want more than a talking head, albeit an experienced and knowledgeable one. Good luck mate.

I've never not liked a Kreator album, they are one band I will buy regardless of hearing singles first. Great review though

I totally get that Terry - and thanks for the kind words! Please share to any Kreator-lovin' pals. :)

I've tried but the modern Kreator sound just doesn't work for me that well. I pretty much tap out at Extreme Aggression, and really, I play Endless Pain and Pleasure to Kill the most. I did see the band live about five years ago and it was a great mixed set of new and old, and they still brought it live.

Agreed. Although I really, really do dig Enemy Of God. But of course Kreator has never again sounded the way they did on Pleasure To Kill & Endless Pain (not even on Terrible Certainty, where the ridiculous, relentless, brutal, sloppy sound of Kreator got more produced and refined). No more songs sung by Ventor either, lol. But today, I wouldn't even label m.j them as thrash. They're more of a Stockholm Melodeth/traditional Metal band that puts one or two thrashy bits on an album. Hordes Of Chaos was super thrashy, BUT it lacked any melody or songwriting, & bored me to disdain.

I can't wait. I got into them with God's of violence around when I fully got into metal. So kreator holds a special place in my heart

Hey there Paul. You're welcome! And thanks for sharing your own thoughts on the album.

You've made me so curious! I've sat and mostly just listened to the video with my eyes closed trying to imagine what the songs sound like. One more reason to be disappointed the release date got pushed back a week. PS - No Future (Cattle Decapitation)! Also... Future of Mankind (Judas Priest), As the Future Repeats Today (In Flames), Dead Eyes See No Future (Arch Enemy), Future Madhouse (Gamma Ray), Spirits of the Future Sun (Soilwork), Future Ages Gone (Warbringer), We Are the Future (Stratovarius), Future On Hold (Amaranthe)... I'm sure there must be many more...

Thanks Ana - glad you're excited about the album! And thanks for the Future list. Oh! I just remembered Future World by Pretty Maids. The title track of that album is awesome.

I'll be back here after the release, but I feel that I'll agree with your review. As told today on IG (Bruce V), i don't like so much "Midnight Sun", i am not really appreciating that kind of voice in that kind of song. I know that we can't have everywhere the "Devin and Anneke" effect, but this duet really left me "meh". BTW, I am pretty biased when we talk about Kreator (as Cattle Decapitation and Obituary) and yes... i've pre-ordered the cd (but not the collection set). P. s. I am more into the "new" Kreator sounds even if I agree with the comment read there about "too much blahblah Satan", but the box "Under the Guillotine" is just fire and I will be never thankful enough for the raw rage expressed in albums like "Extreme Aggression" or "Pleasure to kill" (anyone said "Slayeeeerrrr", there?).

Hey there Vittoria! Belated thanks for your thoughts! I think Midnight Sun is at least growing on me somewhat. :)

Jealous you got an early listen! Lol. I have to wait til June 10th. I loved the singles, including the experimental midnight sun so I just have a feeling that this could very well be my favorite modern Kreator release. The last 2 albums were front loaded with quality but seemed to lack in the later tracks. Something about this release seems to be more...creative than Kreator has been in recent times.

No doubt I'll be buying it as I own most of the rest. I bet you can guess which ones I don't lol. I live in hope but to be honest I'm tired of the new style now. I was into it to a point but I feel like them and Testament are in a creative rut.

I haven’t heard one song from the new Kreator album but I have pre ordered it and will wait till I get it and hear the hole album in one go. I have always been a album man and not a singles man. But I got a little worried when I heard your review Jason, but when I now have thought about it a day or two I’m not worried anymore because I have liked every Kreator album to date.For me the problem with newer Kreator is not the music but the lyrics,Satan is real and those type of lyrics, I would probably liked them 40 years ago but now they are just stupid 😔

I'd be a bit wary of this new Kreator album myself. In fact I am, lol. But if you were okay with Gods Of Violence, I assume you'll be ok with this. Ditto if you were happy with Genesis XIX by Sodom. I bought Gods Of Violence, and I haven't bothered spinning it in YEARS. I did absolutely love Phantom Antichrist & Decision Day, and the follow-ups were pretty disappointing for me. Cheers! P.S. Tankard is releasing a new album in late September!

Jason, try listening to 'Hate Uber Alles' under 🎧 I think it sounds better that way! You failed to mention the lovely German singer Sofia Portanet who guests on 'Midnight Sun'. Its time to raise 'The Flag of Hate' again!
