In an interview with Look Mag, Mille Petrozza revealed the first details about potential new releases. Learn more about the background and the band’s plans here!
Recently, Mille Petrozza, the frontman of Kreator, spoke with the Portuguese Look Mag about the current developments of a possible new album from his band. He revealed that since the release of their last album Hate Über Alles in 2022, he has been continuously working on new material and has already developed about ten songs or song ideas. Despite this progress, Petrozza emphasized the importance of the right timing and thematic maturity. He explains:
“I have written since ’21 or ’22, when we recorded it, I’ve already written, like, 10 songs or something, or 10 ideas for songs. And I could record an album today, but I want to wait until the right moment comes when I have a lyrical concept and everything feels right. To me, it’s not important to release something just for the sake of it. I think it needs to just feel right… I’d rather be quiet than saying something where I don’t have anything to say.”
Timeline for the Next Album
When asked about the timeline for their next release, Petrozza indicated that the band has 2026 in mind for their next album. He mentioned that 2025 could be dedicated to songwriting and recording, with the release planned for early 2026:
“We have a rough idea. We have scheduled the record for 2026, maybe — but if everything goes right. We’re probably gonna take the year ’25 off just for songwriting and recording. And let’s see where it takes us. But if everything goes to plan, then there will be a new Kreator record at the beginning of ’26.“
So, we can look forward to new Kreator material soon. You can listen to the full interview here:
Fifteen years ago, the thrash metal legends Kreator, led by leadsinger Mille Petrozza, created a remarkable work: “Hordes Of Chaos”. From the beginning of its creation, the album was distinguished by two unique features. Firstly, the band chose Moses Schneider as the new producer, and secondly, the album was recorded completely live in the studio. This approach gave it an authenticity and energy that are rarely found in today’s music landscape.
The Distinctive Sound of Kreator Even though “Hordes Of Chaos” is not necessarily considered the best album in Kreator’s discography, it nevertheless combines everything that defines the band: fast, hard riffs, technical finesse, precise drumming, and Petrozza’s distinctive vocals. The themes range from war and destruction to political and social criticism. They express not only anger and frustration but also encourage reflection on the state of our world.
Album Highlights Two central pieces of the album, “Hordes of Chaos (A Necrologue for the Elite)” and “Warcurse”, particularly stand out. “Hordes of Chaos” captures the essence of the album with an impressive mix of raw energy, complex guitar riffs, and captivating melodies. “Warcurse”, on the other hand, impresses with its speed and aggressiveness, combined with catchy melodies that leave a lasting memory.
A Limited Anniversary Edition for Collectors To celebrate this anniversary, Kreator is re-releasing “Hordes of Chaos” along with its predecessor “Enemy Of Gods” in a collector’s edition limited to 1,000 pieces. The vinyl box includes the two albums on CD and colored splatter vinyl, a demon mask, and two thematically matching comics.
This special edition is a must not only for collectors but also for fans who appreciate the legacy of Kreator and the significance of “Hordes of Chaos” in particular. With this re-release, the band not only honors a key work in their history but also offers both new and old fans the chance to experience a piece of metal history anew.
