Video Premiere: KREATOR's 'Totalitarian Terror'

German thrash titans KREATOR have released the official music video for the song “Totalitarian Terror”. Check it out below.

“Totalitarian Terror” is the final clip in KREATOR‘s new video trilogy, which was helmed by the renowned Polish video production company Grupa13 (AMON AMARTH, BEHEMOTH, ELUVEITIE). The track is taken from the band’s new album, “Gods Of Violence”, which is being released today (Friday, January 27) via Nuclear Blast Records.

KREATOR frontman Mille Petrozza recently told Ghost Cult about the group’s insistence on making music videos: “I love videos. I always have, and I always will. I think that it’s a great way to support the music, and visually make it come to life. I know there aren’t any outlets on television anymore, but YouTube is huge, and people still watch them, and it gets them talking. Some people love them, some don’t. Either way, it brings up discussion, which is a good thing. We will continue to release videos for as long as we can. It’s an important thing in KREATOR, and the two we’ve released so far [for the new album] came out spectacular.”

The cover artwork for “Gods Of Violence” was created by renowned artist Jan Meininghaus, who also made the limited-edition artwork for KREATOR‘s last album, 2012’s “Phantom Antichrist”, and has lent his talents to bands like BOLT THROWER, ACCEPT and OVERKILL in the past.

The exclusive North American cover was created by renowned artist Marcelo Vasco, who has previously worked with SLAYER, MACHINE HEAD, SOULFLY and HATEBREED.

The track listing is as follows:

01. Apocalypticon
02. World War Now
03. Satan Is Real
04. Totalitarian Terror
05. Gods Of Violence
06. Army Of Storms
07. Hail To The Hordes
08. Lion With Eagle Wings
09. Fallen Brother
10. Side By Side
11. Death Becomes My Light

KREATOR will tour Europe in support of the new CD beginning in early February. Petrozza and his crew will be accompanied by a varied as well as iconic billing. Brazilian-American extreme metal pioneers SEPULTURA are direct support to the headliners, followed by visionary Swedish melodic death metallers SOILWORK and Belgium’s finest death/grind outfit ABORTED.

KREATOR will headline this year’s edition of the annual Decibel Magazine Tour. Support on the trek will come from Florida death metal legends OBITUARY, old-school Ohio brutalizers MIDNIGHT and celebrated progressive death prodigies HORRENDOUS.
