Five years after their highly acclaimed album “Gods Of Violence” (2017), peaking at #1 in the German album charts, KREATOR are proud to announce their fifteenth studio album, “Hate Über Alles,” which will be released on June 3rd, 2022 through Nuclear Blast.
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.
Mille Petrozza comments: ” ‘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.”
“Hate Über Alles” is also KREATOR’s first new effort with bassist Frédéric Leclercq (ex-DRAGONFORCE), who joined the band in 2019 and has so far only played on the 2020 single “666 – World Divided.”
