18 tracks, four of them live/rare, and the booklet is a careful cataloging of who was in the band, what album each song is from, and what year it was released.
I’m always surprised by how little I like Kreator’s ’90s releases. ’87’s Terrible Certainty is one of my faves, right up there with Slayer’s Reign in Blood.
A few of the songs have a cool groove, but the distorted chorus is a little too “Fuckin’ Hostile,” and the cheeseball delay on the vocals is so old, it stinks.
A Tribute to Judas Priest compiles established metal bands who were obviously inspired by Priest and fought by their side as true defenders of the faith.
A terrifyingly powerful record, produced huger than anything in Kreator’s back catalog. The cover art isn’t like days of old, but it’s Kreator, so it’s great.
