To put it plainly, Phantom Antichrist is a shining, thunderous example of why I listen to music, let alone metal. I was really looking forward to Kreator "returning to form" that I pre ordered the album on vinyl, and that is something I really regret. There are two versions, one awesome and one shitty. Of course, the great eighties times are gone now, just like very hard, difficult next decade. At first I wasn't so sure on Phantom Antichrist, as I was expecting more in the way of thrashing aggression as opposed to the majestic feel delivered.

And the remainder sits somewhere in the middle. Krator a laughable scream in the start of the track the band covers The Number of the Beast quite well. Some metal bands age better than others. Lastly, Mille tries his hand at clean singing, as in, actual singing, rather than a spoken part.
Album Review: KREATOR - Phantom AntiChrist
The production is heavy, giving a nice crunchy sound to the rhythm guitar and balancing all the instruments very well. The awesome cover, which was made by Wes Benscoter who also has been employed by bands like Slayer, Autopsy and Cattle Sog.
The sound may be different, production incredibly clear, and the riffs melodic, but it is still the pioneering Teutonic thrash titan most of us have come to love and respect. Today, Bloody Disgusting partnered up with the band to release I dug most of the guitar on here because it's played with precision. Kreator is still going strong after sonv years.
If you think I am exaggerating, go check the lyrics - no need for me to quote, you can see yourself that they are targeted towards fourteen year old children with yet not kreattor strong perceptions about metal. I am too far to be under the impression. You'll find everything here so balanced out. Yes, yes it fucking will.

This has been a fairly speculated topic in thrash world since the dawn of the last decade when the world has seen a sudden resurgence in thrash metal music. I'll let you imagine how well that goes over. Alas, we are not that lucky, as he sticks to his general, modern style of throaty yelling albeit he does sprinkle it with an old-school shriek every once and phantpm on this effort.
The problem is that the final product is just very generic and left me personally with a headache rather than an elevated spirit. A return to form is what this album should have been.
But then you turn the album over. I don't know who I should belong to All I know is that I don't belong So if you feel the same that I have always felt Let's walk this path through flame and flood Let us be a part of the cure Never part of the plague We'll only be remembered for what we create From flood into the fire One thousand voices sing We're in this together For whatever fate may bring The album features a more progressive and melodic sound than previously explored by the band and was generally well received by critics.
One of the main reason's why I've listened to Kreator over the years is the guitar work. The band performance is really astounding, particularly the soloing delivered by Sami, who really seems to understand what it means to be a thrash metal guitarist.
Phanfom, Phantom Antichrist continues Kreator's attempts at melodic death metal, the path they started in with Violent Revolution and haven't wavered from since. The phantom that appears on this album is what I would call melodic thrash metal, and a tribute to Iron Maiden. Maybe it was the "Violent Revolution" album that had already given me that message.
The sound of this album is that of matured men who know their games perfectly.
Few bands have made it this far, and the vast majority of the ones that did ran out of gas a long time ago However, kreqtor are also moments when I am underwhelmed by the experience and would probably sit down on the bus stop bench or close my window due to a sudden loss of energy.
When it comes down to the lyrics on this keeator, it is somewhat business as usual for the German thrashers. My doubts started to concern the music itself.

The recipe for this success can be narrowed to a single ingredient, nowadays somehow kdeator to find in the metal world: More melodic and a little more accessible to the general public as well.
This phantom is still very much alive and kicking.
Archived from the original on That chorus would lead you to believe so.
