Kreator - Enemy of God (2005/SPV)
Rating - 8.5

One Evil Comes - A Million Follow - mp3

The band took a four-year studio break following 'Violent Revolution,' but return with a full-tilt album of steady, constant, buzzsaw cuts (with flavors of paced thickness mixed in as well). Along with the recent releases from Exodus, Kreator has helped to rekindle the old-school flame of thrash, joining the fray of a number of newer bands who are also working to hold the torch high.
The title song is a strong opener, and is followed by the destruction thump of "Impossible Brutality". "Voices of the Dead" starts out serene, but then unfurls into a terminator roll. "One Evil Comes - A Million Follow" is pure galloping thrash, and pure metal bliss.
Other areas that earn high marks are the angry vocals of "Murder Fantasies," "When Death Takes its Dominion" and its steady Gatlin riff, and all of "World Anarchy," "Dystopia," "Dying Race Apocalypse," "Under a Total Blackened Sky," and "The Ancient Plague".
