German Thrash Metal legends KREATOR, have unveiled an official music video for “Become Immortal”, the fourth single from their fifteenth studio album, “Hate Über Alles”, which was released yesterday (Friday, June 10th) through Nuclear Blast. The clip is described as a lyrical and visual look back through the ages of KREATOR‘s legendary career, whilst passing the torch to young German thrashers DESTROY THEM from Mille’s hometown, Essen, who feature as the KREATOR performing in the video.
Mille Petrozza comments: “We’re very proud of this record and we hope our Hordes love it as much we do! A big thank you to everyone involved and to our fans around the world for their support and for giving us a warm welcome back!
The video was our third in a row with Tom Schlagkamp and his team, it’s been a pleasure working with them. The video is based on the lyrics, which is a full circle look back through the years and celebrating our early beginnings, through to the release of our latest record, ‘Hate Über Alles’.“
For 37 years, KREATOR has spear-headed a Thrash Metal crusade, inspiring generations of metalheads and musicians alike. The collision of traditional and contemporary values is a sentiment that Mille Petrozza has breathed in to the soul of this monumental new album — recruiting visionary producer Arthur Rizk (POWER TRIP, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, GHOSTMANE and TURNSTILE) from Philadelphia to work with the band at the legendary Hansa Studio in Berlin. “Hate Über Alles” features gorgeously grim cover artwork by renowned artist Eliran Kantor (TESTAMENT, THY ART IS MURDER , HELLOWEEN), serving a bold statement against hate and division in today’s society.
Petrozza stated about the album: ” ‘Hate Über Alles’ reflects the time we’re living in. Everything is really loud and aggressive. The way we communicate has changed, thanks to social media. It causes a lot of imbalance. The world is in a state of disrepair. Life is not harmonic right now, it’s disharmonic… that’s where I was going with the title.”
