Kreator – Enemy Of God

‘Enemy of god’ mighty German thrashers latest one depicts them improving their perfection and presenting it in a new mould. ‘Mille’ (V/G) and company smoothly juggle between the older frames and their sound from this decade. It’s actually healthier than last studio effort ‘violent revolution’ which was too straight and leaping. This album cashes the net you could expect from the band in terms of aggression, progression and integration (of the instruments).

It’s truly heavy, and at the same time isn’t too fast (like pleasure to kill/coma of souls). The moderately paced riffs are in-tune with the verses sung. Moreover, the harmonization of the guitars is concretely built and is very fresh. And the packet gets lethal when combined with a power packed and a mechanically proficient drumming. The rhythm sections take an occasional barrier halts to jump back and over again as per lyrical requirements. The songs have their melodic moments, when the band averts from the conventional thrashy technique. Lead playing doesn’t’ stagnates into a stereotype, as on the older albums. This totally establishes that Kreator have created an album for fans that loved ‘violent revolution’, ‘ terrible certainty’ or even ‘endorama’.

Mille’s (V) remains extremely ferocious and hateful throughout the lyrical aspect of the record. And in the process throws enough venom at terrorists, god, death and rest of the world. The vocal reach on ‘dystopia’ (track 5), progressive touch on ‘world anarchy’ (track 4) and speed of ‘enemy of god’ (opening track) signature the album’s feel and can be heard over and over to significantly feel the innovations. ‘Enemy of god’ exceptionally has a touch of dark unpredictable Kreator that’s raw at the same time polished, technical and comprehensively dense.

Such, unmatched intensity is enough to melt wax near your eardrums. Clear-cut, verdict is, must pick!
