THE REVIEW

TODAY SATURDAY I WENT TO MY RECORD STORE I BUY RECORDS EVERY NOW AND THEN THOSE I CAN'T DOWNLOAD I BUY THEM I WANTED TO BUY SCREAM BLOODY GORE AND INDIVIDUAL THOUGHT PATTERNS BY DEATH WHICH I WAS MISSING TO COMPLETE THE DISCOGRAPHY. WE ARE FACING A MASTERPIECE FROM THE 80S A RECORD DIFFERENT FROM VIOLENT REVOLUTION OR ENEMY OF GOD OR PLEASURE TO KILL HERE WE FIND MORE TECHNICAL AND THOUGHTFUL EPISODES BUT STILL THRASH METAL AND THE MOST MATURE RECORD THAT KREATOR MADE IN THEIR FIRST PART 1985-2003 CONTAINS GUITAR PARTS WITH A RICHER SOUND A VERY TECHNICAL AND PRECISE DRUM AND LOTS OF MELODY LET'S SAY HOWEVER VERY THOUGHT-OUT AND ALMOST DARK. MUCH LESS HARSH THAN EXTREME AGGRESSOR. COMA OF SOULS GIVES A LOT OF SPACE TO MID-TEMPOS SEE THE SPLENDID PEOPLE OF THE LIE AND TERRORZONE (IF WE DON'T EXCLUDE THE DEVASTATING SMASH-EVERYTHING FINALE) GRANTS SPACES OF ACOUSTIC GUITAR THAT EVOKES IMAGES OF WARS ON WHEN THE BURNS THE RED AND THEN IT STARTS WITH MIKE PETROZZA'S SCREAM THAT STARTS BEATING. VERY ELABORATE LYRICS THAT TALK ABOUT POLITICS, WAR, ETC. IN THIS ALBUM IT PASSES FROM CLASSIC THRASH TO GRINDCORE. KREATOR AT THAT POINT ARE A CELEBRITY ALL OVER THE WORLD THEY FISH BLACKFIRE FROM THE HOUSE OF SODOM DESPITE IN THE HOUSE OF TOM ANGELRIPPER THERE WAS CELEBRATION FOR THAT MASTERPIECE AGENT ORANGE, AND THE GUITARIST TRITZE WAS FIRED. IN SHORT, THIS ALBUM IS ONE OF THE MASTERPIECES OF THE 80S AND ONE OF THE BEST THRASH ALBUMS THAT FORM THE TRINITY COWBOYS FROM HELL REIGN IN BLOOD MASTER OF PUPPETS RUST IN PEACE AND AGENT ORANGE TO HAVE.

 "They are the European Slayer."

 "This record may not be a masterpiece, but it remains undoubtedly one of their classics."


By PhilMetallo

 From Mille's first scream to the end, there will indeed be no pause.

 An album I recommend to all thrash lovers and consider, if not the best, one of the most beautiful by the German band.
