Kreator

Sanctuary Records has released a reissue of the classic cult record "Pleasure To Kill" from German thrash legends KREATOR on vinyl

Here's the scoop, from the band's official website.

"The concept of "seminal band" seems to have been misused quite a bit in music, but Kreator is definitely one of them for what it brought to the heavy metal audience. Active since 1982, the German combo led by axeman/vocalist Mille Petrozza debuted in 1985 on Noise with the full length LP Endless Pain: a raging thrash metal mayhem that made Kreator raise to the top of emergent bands in the ever evolving metal scene of the 1980s. The next step was this Pleasure to Kill, an album that perfected the band's young sound. Kreator introduced more speed and doomish atmospheres in thrash metal, contributing to its evolution in that multitude of sub-genres that HM listeners know well. Brutal, fast and savage, Kreator remains a milestone in rough music history."
