KREATOR, ambassadors of Germany’s distinctive brand of smoldering thrash metal, proudly mark their return to the stages worldwide alongside Sweden’s ARCH ENEMY with an extremely limited edition split 7″.
From November 14 on five different colors (Red, Black, Silver, Orange, Gold) will be available via the Nuclear Blast Mailorder. Silver and Orange will only be available through the NB Mailorder, Gold will be available for bronze status customers only. Be quick or be dead – once they’re gone, they’re gone.
The track listing is:
– Side A (ARCH ENEMY) :: Breaking The Law (JUDAS PRIEST cover)
– Side B (KREATOR) :: Iron Destiny
“Finally, after all these years ARCH ENEMY and KREATOR not only tour together but will also release a split single!” shares KREATOR guitarist & frontman Mille Petrozza.
“I have always been a fan of this stuff since these are special little collectors items. We chose the song ‘Iron Destiny’ for this. Lyrically, this is a tribute to the early days of the band… the days when we were young metalheads, discovering the music that we still love to this day. KREATOR is looking forward to this run and we hope to see all of you!”
ARCH ENEMY guitarist Michael Amott comments:
“Super excited about the upcoming tours in Europe and USA with KREATOR, and it’s really cool to have this split vinyl 7″ coming out to celebrate the extreme metal party of the year! Covering the JUDAS PRIEST classic ‘Breaking The Law’ is obviously not the most original idea, but this is a pretty heavily rearranged version that sounds very ARCH ENEMY and anyhow there’s no denying that the mighty PRIEST is a great influence on the band. Enjoy this unique and limited KREATOR / ARCH ENEMY release and see you on the road!”
KREATOR and ARCH ENEMY will tour Europe starting end of November with SODOM and VADER.
