Album Description
Available in:
"Gods of Violence" is the fourteenth studio album by German thrash metal band Kreator, released on January 27, 2017 through Nuclear Blast. It is the band's first studio album in almost five years since 2012's Phantom Antichrist, marking the longest gap between two studio albums in their career. Special editions of the album were released with a bonus Blu-ray/DVD of Kreator's performance at Wacken 2014.
Gods of Violence debuted at number one on the German charts, making it Kreator's first number one debut in their 32-year recording career.

User Album Review
Reviewed by metalwani.com
‘Gods of Violence’ features Mille Petrozza (vocals, guitars, lyrics), Sami Yli–Sirniö (guitars), Christian “Speesy” Giesler (bass) and Jürgen “Ventor” Reil (drums), but to enjoy the album, stop thinking of their individual performances for a moment and marvel at the triplet grooves that gallop ever so often under tasty melodies. The album is full of sharp riffs, quick double bass, and snarls, but at the same time, the songs are grand, several of them featuring epic intros. It turns out that Italian symphonic death metal group Fleshgod Apocalypse helped them out with the orchestras on a few songs.
The smooth-yet-organic mix brings out the elements quite brilliantly –rougher production would give the songs a more old school kind of vibe, but ‘Gods of Violence’ needed to balance all the intricate melodies, orchestrations, and other subtleties. Jens Borgen gets another feather under his already-impressive cap. At the moment, it’s difficult to see a thrash release of 2017 topping the new Kreator album.
