Extreme music full of sharpness and relentlessness, plus politically motivated lyrics that put their finger in the wound again and again and don't close their eyes to unpleasant facts: Welcome to the world of Hordes Of Chaos, the latest thrash metal pamphlet by the German cult band Kreator, which will be released on January 16, 2009 (Europe: January 19, USA: end of January) via Steamhammer/SPV. Also in 2009, the group around frontman Mille Petrozza proves to be a particularly innovative and always future-oriented formation, which always pursues new ideas in order to enable itself and its fans to achieve the highest degree of authenticity. In the summer of 2008, Petrozza, drummer Jürgen ́Ventor' Reil, bassist Christian Giesler and guitarist Sami Yli-Sirniö have put together ten rock-hard tracks, ten songs with an unmistakable message throughout: Kreator reign here in its purest form.
