Review: Kreator 'Hate Uber Alles' (thrash metal)

Would love to see you do a "Kreator Ranked" episode. I'm sure Ryan and others would be on board to participate.

I just got the chance to listen to this entire album. It’s killer. Kreator just keeps rolling with great music.

Boss, I checked out on em waaaay back...but Im always here to support new album review day anyway and hey, sometimes find a band I used to love and wandered from is back and better!

Been years since I heard Kreator album - sounds like it is worth a listen.

The production/mix threw me off at first (not in a bad way) but it is pretty awesome. I admit I'm a fanboy and Kreator can do no wrong imo. Even just picked up the recent Endorama vinyl issue. Killer band!

"Can't do much worse than this (2x)" isn't exactly a ringing endorsement. We allow you a vacation and look what happens! I've probably heard of this band via HVS. "1985 I hear the call" he sings, I admit to being 37 years late to that call. Mostly been away from metal for almost that long. Thanks much for sparking my metal renaissance!

100% agree Pete, later Kreator sounds more melodic to me as well. And I actually like it (never thought I'd say this) because they're excellent in that melodic-yet-powerful genre.

Huge Thrash fan. I'll give this a listen. Thanks Pete. And welcome back!

I was a little disappointed, some good songs, but not their best. What has impressed is the 2 singles We’ll Be Back & Night Stalkers from Megadeth, amazing thrash that harkens back to Peace Sells & Rust In Peace, the album drops on September 2nd, I’m stoked.

Great album,no doubt.I saw them live 7 times,I think. Great band,I have been a big fan since Extreme Aggression came out.

Killer album! Strongest of the Strong.

I'm from germany and i love Metal. But till now Kreator wasn't really my thing. To fast, to rough, to aggressive. But just yesterday i discovered this Album and i totally agree: it's just great! I think this more "musical" touch makes it more interesting for people who doesn't really like this pure, hard thrash-metal of the earlyer days. Demonic future is also my favourite! By the way Kreator is a band from the Ruhr-Area in Germany that is known for it's very hard enviroment. It's the place in germany with a long history of the steel industry and minors. People there have a very honest, direct and hard character, so that's the reason why Thrash Metal was getting big there.

Keeping my commitment to watch! Kreator is a band have enjoyed diving into their catalogue. Knew the first few in the '80s, but didn't know a lot after that. Agree with Pete, they are more musical/melodic on recent albums, less extreme than the early days, maybe Power metal, true. This one is honestly not catching on with me. Will have to give this one a few more spins!

More power to you that you found joy in a lot of songs I didn't like. I love Phantom Antichrist and Gods of Violence, but this was a colossal disappointment, since they just expanded on GoV, but specifically the stuff that DIDN'T WORK. I've heard that Mille finds it more difficult to write songs now, but it didn't show much on GoV, since the choruses there were actually cool, while here they are really plain. I'd give it a 2.5/5 at best, but glad you enjoyed it so much.

I think it is a solid album though I did not think the songwriting was quite as strong as their last 3 albums. Still very enjoyable though

Pete - fantastic review….I’ve had the album for a week now. And I’ve seen a lot of reviews were they bag out the last track. But I’m with you on Dying planet….it’s excellent. I wish they’d do more of that type of stuff…..it’s got some nice darker themes and moods than the more upbeat stuff….🤟

I absolutely love this album. Listened to it non stop for two weeks back in June. It will probably rank Top 5 of the year for me.

I’ll check this out for sure

Hi Pete. i will have to give it a listen. The couple Kreator albums i listened to were a little over the top for me and all one speed.

more into their 80s thrash metal heyday. pleasure to kill, Extreme aggression; Coma of souls , terrible certainty. I haven't heard their more recent records lately. only Hordes of chaos and and phantom antichrist. I'll give it a listen. I bought Vio lence new ep. it's awesome bay area thrash 🤘
